Izzi Korean Kitchen

The food here is so good and the portions are a great size! If you eat in the restaurant you get complimentary soup. It's not available for takeout orders. We tried both of the soup options and they were delicious! The staff was super friendly and answered any questions we had about the menu items. The atmosphere and decor are fun and inviting. They have a screen in the dining area that plays kpop videos. We really enjoyed our first visit and we plan to try it again soon!

Highlights:& Free soup (with purchase)& Seemed geared towards young ppl, staff seem like high schoolers& Food was good, though notably salty& Solid option for Korean/fusion food if you're in the areaContext: Saturday afternoon, early December. We were looking for Korean food and found this place on Google Maps .Food:The ramen wasn't Instagramable, though the kimbap seemed plated with intentionality and care about how it looked. The free soup was made from fried fish cake. It was a good appetizer while you wait for your food -- also helped the time go by. It wasn't busy when we showed up so our food came out quickly. The food overall was good -- nothing really noteworthy good or bad, except it being pretty salty (not unexpected). On the plus side, our food arrived quickly (though there weren't any orders ahead of us).Ambience:Seemed trendy/hip, the vibe I got was that it was geared towards young people. The free soup, the decor, the expectation that you bus your own table and the staff being high school/college, is what gave me that sense. I was visiting so I could be totally off-base. If we're in the area and looking for Korean food, we would probably come back.

Oh, cool I guessWhatStopped by here before going to the Florida mall. I got the teokbokki. It was okay, nothing super special. EnvironmentThis is in a plaza where IZZIban used to be. This was a suprise to me as I thought it was like IZZIban but it was totally different. It is more like a fast casual now, maybe a bit very casual. There are a lot of seating inside with some outside as well. It is self seated after you order, you pick up at the end of the counter and you also clean up the plates yourself after. Niceness of the staff Not sure how to describe this. Maybe it's the system that's inefficient. There are a number of screens for you to place your orders. There is one person that could take your order but you need to pay cash. Otherwise you need to order via the Self kiosk. Once you order you can take a seat. The staff I would say she was just there.DollarFrom the menu I thought it was expensive. Seems they are just warming up food... it was like instant noodles with seafood. The teokbokki was $10 something Yes/No?It's a great concept.. but I am not sure

The kiosks were working a bit slow when we arrived, but we were finally able to place our order with the staff's help.We seated ourselves and noticed there was free soup for dine in guests. Very mindful, very demure. It was delicious! The food came out quickly and the portion sizes were decent.The kimchi fried rice was delicious. The two kimbap rolls we ordered looked freshly made and were also scrumptious. The tteokbukki was a little on the sweeter side, maybe too sweet, but it had a good amount of fish cake and egg. We could've done with a little more spice.Overall, the dishes were decent and the portion sizes made up for the prices. We would definitely visit again to try more items next time that we're in the area.

To my surprise, this place was not bad. The prices were a bit high (but that seems to be normal for Korean food?) You do get a decent amount of food for the price you pay. Everything was not bad and if you dine in, you get to have some complimentary soup located where you pick up your food on the counter. The Korean hotdog and spicy ramen was not worth it though.

Updated 8/22/24: had dinner with family and friends at about 8:20PM and ordered regular Tteokbukki - had a few more rice cakes than last visit. Tried the spicy tuna poke bowl and that was pretty good and filling. The fried chicken is still the same, now convinced it's a wannabe k-style fried chicken.Downgraded to 1 star becasue we asked for some cups at the counter to get water and staff as initial response was "you know we close at 9:15, right?". It wasn't even 9pm when we asked! My hubby pointed out the sign at the front that says 9:30pm and was told that it was wrong. We were the ONLY people dining and ordered quite a lot. They already do self-serve, the least they could do is not rush us with our dinner! We used to love going here but service and food has gone down so much that we don't think we'll come back.

Love eating here for lunch! It's one of our go-to's. There's a kiosk where you can order your food, or you can order with a cashier. They play K-pop and have a little shopping area where you can buy makgeolli, soju, and other chips and snacks! You can also order poke bowls, Korean street food, bento boxes, and sushi! Loved their fried chicken and the corn dog. Definitely a good place to try out if you're in the area! They also have a takeout area and provide boxes, plastic bags, and cutlery for you to pack your food. So convenient!

Came by for late sunday night dinner and was so surprised how awful the service was. I asked the young lady a question and she treated me like I asked her to take my order. There is 2 kiosk so I placed my order myself and cleaned up my dishes. There is a little store in the restaurants you can buy items and ramen. Looked descent. The ambiance is not great and not helpful. I decided to get the few items I've had in the past at other Korean restaurant so unfortunately, I wasn't able to try new items. They offered complimentary soup but it was all gone, when my wife asked if they were going to put out more as there were a lot of patrons the young lady said no and walked away. I ordered veggie dumplings which was ok, the sauce it came with was very tasty. The katsu chicken was dry and flavorless. The shin soup was no great, so that went in the garbage. The egg was over done. The Galbi beef was tasty so they get one star for it. Overall, I don't think I'll be returning. There so many other options in Orlando to try.

Cool spot! As you walk in, there are a bunch of korean snacks for sale and korean decor. It is a fun a casual vibe. Easy to order through the kiosks (three kiosks total) and then you seat yourself and wait for your name to be called out. If you order multiple items, it's likely that you'll have to get up multiple times to retrieve your food when they call your name. There is also a cafe you can order at front register. This is truly an easy, do it yourself kind of spot. At the kiosk, they ask for tip, but the staff really isn't doing anything for you but just cooking the food and calling your name out. I really enjoyed the large selection of food items. It was all delicious; you and your foodie friends would love it! I came with a big group and we like to share food, but we ended up ordering too much because we ordered separately and some of us got the same items. We had plenty of leftovers! They have to-go boxes available for you right next to the fountain machine, napkins, and cutlery. I got the onigiri and the salmon was a bit is dry, i probably wouldnt order that again. We also got kimbap, noodles, fried rice, rice cake dish, kimchi, and galbi - it was all delicious! It's hard to go wrong here! I would definitely come back to eat here again, but i gave four stars because if you order multiple items, you have to constantly get up to grab each item separately.

I really enjoyed the food here! The fried chicken is super crispy and well covered in sauce. The portion size for an order of kimbap is also a lot, which is great for sharing! I got the traditional one, but my friends got different types and they were also very delicious. The restaurant also offers complimentary soup if you dine-in and the soup hits the spot if you want a warm meal. My friends and I didn't have to wait very long after we erred and paid for our food on the kiosk, which was nice, since we were all very hungry.The restaurant also had a really comfy and homey vibe to it, so it's great for a casual dinner with family and friends!
