Sister Jipbob

Better than my mom's! Meal kits are just so convenient and good, my favorite is budae jjigeh. Best time to visit is 10-11am, all hot and fresh lunches also come available

I was really excited to check this place out as soon as I saw this pop up on Yelp! I go to Hmart almost every week but was hoping to find a banchan place nearby so I could support a mom & pop shop instead. The first time I went they were closed unexpectedly and had a sign on the door saying they would be open the next day. I came back again another day, determined to check this place out. I really wanted to love this place but unfortunately the prices of the food were higher than other places I've been to for similar items. For some of the items like ready meals, they were priced similarly to if you would order those items as a restaurant that serves the food hot for you. Personally for me, I would expect the packaged foods to be cheaper than a restaurant. I did end up getting their frozen kalbitang though because I thought it was one of the items that was reasonably priced compared to their other options. If I recall correctly, I think it was around $18 and I was able to split it into a meal for both my husband and I (which is cheaper than what you would get eating out). The flavor overall was good. I also got a pickled chayote banchan since that was priced reasonably as well and was something I don't normally see elsewhere. I did really like that item. Aside from the prices, I was a little turned off by the lack of service. I came in ready to spend some money since I was wanting to fill up on food and banchan but multiple items were missing prices. When I asked nicely for prices of different items, the lady at the counter seemed annoyed and told me their price printer thing wasn't working. I totally understand something like that happening but the attitude was off-putting and I was getting the same attitude everytime I was curious on the price for something. There were a few more items I would have been willing to buy and try out despite the higher prices but decided to only buy the two items based on the interaction. One big positive call out about the place is that it did look very clean and well kept. I would consider coming back again to see if the experience is better next time and to buy the kalbitang again if I'm in the area but I wouldn't go out of my way to make the drive out here.

Sister Jipbob isn't your typical Korean restaurant establishment. They mainly cater toward lunch boxes, frozen korean meals like soup, marinated meats, and katsu, and korean side dishes.We had the opportunity to try the galbitang, marinated cucumbers, spicy squid, and fish cake. All were delicious! galbitang was able to feed both my wife and I and was easy to make. All we had to do was boil the content in the bag. I think this will be a good place to buy meals in advance. The quality of the food is decent, though I would say their prices are about 20% higher from what I would except. I would still recommend people to check this place out at least once!

Wow, what can I say about this place? I'm so glad it opened and is convenient for me. The people that work there are very nice and helpful. They have a good selection of Korean take-home food that is delicious and easy to heat up. It's perfect for people that don't have time to cook and clean. This Donkatsu was huge. It was big enough to feed a family of 4. I just had to make rice and steam some veggies on the side.Total cooking time for this Donkatsu was 10 minutes at 380°F in the air fryer. They have 2 different types of pork cutlet to choose from. The one in my photos (Korean style) and a Japanese style Tonkatsu. Comes with the sauces you eat them with as well.My only recommendation would be to have some samples of the different ban chan that is available and maybe let us know how long they are good for in the fridge as well. That would help people like me buy more if we knew what we were getting ourselves into. 5 StarsDefinitely check it out

Do not sleep on Sister Jipbob folks. This place has great options for lunch and for pre-prepped meals. The location is clean, the aesthetic professional. The food is lovingly boxed and ready to go in their large refrigeration sections. There is a vast selection of delicious looking banchans, beautiful and generous pork cutlets begging to be air fried, and just in time for summer - succulent looking kalbi ribs for grilling! Did I mention they have large pouches of prepared Korean soups ready to go? I did not get to look over all the offerings, but I was very excited.Today I selected some bulgogi (the bulgogi is not cloying or overbearing and lets all its ingredients shine!) and rice ( the rice is well prepared) and some egg banchan was quite flavorful, taking a cue from the bulgogi it has a exquisite taste (I don't know the name, my apologies). Both were delicious, not overly seasoned, and you can tell they are prepared with the type of love you can only get from a home cooked meal. I love this place. I love it charm. The staff are very courteous and friendly. Please welcome them and I hope your days at Sister Jipbob will be full of deliciousity!I can't wait to go back!Thank you!

I absolutely love this place! I love it so much that I've come back 3 times in one week! As someone who is non-korean I was intimidated coming in, but the owners were helpful in explaining what each dish is, and how to cook each one. The aesthetic is also to die for, everything is clean and updated. I highly recommend their galbi, saluntang, and katsu! ‍

This place is a great addition to local food joints in the area. It's more like a take out restaurant that offers a variety of Korean side dishes and prepared lunch boxes. There's no menu so whatever lunch items they have for the day is pretty much displayed on the table near the cashier. The name of the dish and price is labeled. They took over the old Greenhouse Cafe and remodeled the entire space that gives out a chic modern vibe. The dishes are so tasty!! It really tastes like good home made food. My favorite so far is the radish kimchi, octopus kimchi, and the udon salad with shrimp. Can't get enough of it!! Definitely recommend this place and will go back for sure.

Sister Jipbob is awesome! They serve restaurant quality food to go! Very well priced for the quality you are getting. The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. The store is clean and updated. They are go to Korean food spot for days when the wife does not want to cook. I highly recommend their Galbi and Katsu!

I live near this restaurant and I was curious to try it when I saw it was opened. It was phenomenal! The service was great (sweetest people ever and excellent English). I am not too familiar with all the Korean cuisine and they helped me pick out great meals. The food quality is superb; I highly recommend the ribs, and the scallion pancakes. One thing to note is that this is not a traditional restaurant. While there are tables to eat at, the store specializes in a bento box style of food. I came to eat lunch here and it is not so much a restaurant but a premade grab and go. It was lovely and we took our food boxes and ate on their nice patio. Very clean, very kind people, very yummy food. Highly recommend.

Every thing I purchased here has been delicious, I've gotten the spicy pork lunch box, kimchi, and the self cook meals. I thought price was reasonable for the quality.
