Family-run, strip-mall eatery offering traditional Korean dishes in a spare setting.

This is truly my favorite Korean spot in College Station. I come here once or twice a week with my roommates, family, and friends, and I’ve never had a bad meal. And it’s been a year since I discovered Chois. Their tteok mandu guk is my personal comfort dish, but honestly every soup and stew here is amazing. It’s warm, cozy, homey Korean food that feels like it was made with so much care.
They have a huge variety, so everyone I bring always finds something they love. I recommend this place to anyone who wants real Korean food!
About the wait time: the food usually takes around 30-45 minutes, but that’s because they are clearly working hard in the back and making everything properly. I think it’s completely reasonable. It’s the type of place where you come in knowing you’ll have time to talk and settle in before your meal.
I eat a lot of Korean food in Bellaire, and I really feel like I have a say when I say this place is special. I love it so much.
I also want to say the owners are so sweet!!! I haven’t had a single bad dish here. I really wish I had more photos, but I love all their food. There are so many nice things I could say about this place. I genuinely don’t know what I’d do without stopping by at least once a week!!!

I know everyone has their own experiences when it comes to dining out. I had one of the best ones, it’s a shame that I was the only person to eat inside today 10/13/2025 and I gotta say I enjoyed it regardless. I ordered the Fish Cake Udon, the Fried Bulgogi Gimbap and an Iced Tea. It being a Mom and Pop shop, I knew there would be a wait and I think understanding that not everything perfect comes on time makes me glad my patience is instilled in me because it was well with the wait. I had just gotten off work and was craving something filling but good all around. I cannot stress this enough that it filled me up in general and with warmth that I can’t wait till I’m able to visit again! Best meal I’ve had in years and I don’t know Korean so I tried using my translation app to let the wonderful lady working know that I appreciated the meal and i appreciated her hard work! Thank you guys so much! ☺️

I love this restaurant so much!! I come here multiple times a month with my roommate and I’ve never had a negative experience. The owners are so sweet and the food is absolutely delicious. It is made to order, so you should expect to wait a bit, but this just means that the food you get is nice and fresh. I get the kimchi jjigae and I highly recommend it. I can’t say enough good things about this place!!

Came here a few times now. We ordered Sotteok Sotteok (lil smokies with Korean rice cake skewers is spicy and interestingly delicious), Gimbap (sushi was ok), grilled bulgogi (very tender and delicious), garlic fried rice (lots of bacon and delicious), Kimchi Jjigae (kimchee stew is a bit tangy, but it’s packed with lots of kimchee and pork and super refreshing), and the kimchee pancake (awesome crust and texture plus it tastes delicious). Other times, we ordered the bulgogi, kalbi, and the tteokbokki. All their food was delicious. Overall, the price is reasonable for the quality of the food. We just moved here from Hawaii and I was worried that l’d only eat smoked BBQ or something like that lol, but it’s nice to know that restaurants that sell Asian foods are available in this city.
The young male waiter was super friendly and fast. Lots of tables to dine at and lots of parking.

Roy, the student waiter, has excellent recommendations, the fried dumplings are the best in town. Get the bulgogi grilled.

You will wait over an hour for your food and it will not come at the same time. They are a mom and pop shop and expect that when you dine here. I watched them cook, they only cook 1 thing at a time. Parallelism is not being executed.
The food was ok. The short rib portion for $17 was a scam. It was 5 small pieces that were chewy!! They were clearly not marinated for long enough. The mackerel was good. The ox tail soup was mid. Soft tofu soup was fine but not excellent.
I will not come back because I value my time. The food was ok but it wasn’t out of this world. You have better options in college station that will not take over an hour after you order.

Used to go here for takeout back during COVID days, and have since then come back to dine in. Very glad to see it’s still popular, as it’s one of the best Korean restaurants for the price. They have all the authentic dishes, and I especially like the Aggie specials. They have a great lunch special offering as well. The dining area is small, but they give you all the expected sides and the family owning the shop is very nice. Definitely would be a go to spot if it was open for dining back in my college days.

This place was amazing! SUCH sweet staff and a HUGE variety of entrees and sides. I got the sweet and spicy chicken entree with a steamed chicken dumpling appetizer. The restaurant had no wait. Plus, if was very, very clean and in a great location. I’ll definitely be back. Can’t wait!!

The kimbap was delicious, but the other dishes were just mediocre. We had to wait almost an hour for only two items to come out. The dining tables were sticky, and the restroom was dirty and definitely in need of remodeling. The male owner also talked a lot unnecessarily, which made the experience less pleasant.

Food was so delicious, and they were very kind! I recommend getting the Jjampong, it was full of flavor and slightly spicy. Amazing place, we loved it!
