We love this place. The food is delicious, the staff is so friendly and the location is convenient. As the name states, this restaurant is “grab & go”. Don’t expect to be waited on but you can ask for recommendations from the friendly owners. They are so kind and quick to make sure you leave happy. ☺️ In fact, they remembered us from our last visit about 6 months ago; they were genuinely gracious and happy to see us. Made our day as we had just stopped in after a lengthy medical treatment.
This time we ordered the spicy chicken stew, gimbap, bulgogi rice bowl, and ube rice crispy treats. Everything was delicious but my favorites – the gimbap and rice crispy treats (I could eat those over and over again).
We can’t wait to return next time we’re in N Austin. Truly a gem.

Absolutely love this spot! The bulgogi is incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked, the purple rice is such a nice touch. And don’t skip the dessert, it’s the perfect sweet finish. A great Korean grab-and-go option when you want something quick but genuinely delicious. Highly recommend!

This little sandwich just changed my life!! I’m not sure what it was, UBE i assume but it’s delicious 🙂 i reheated all the food at home and the kimbap is the best I’ve had in Austin. The little owners were super smiley! No doubt I’ll return for the sandwich and kimbap.

I tried both the beef bibimbap and the pork bibimbap, and they were really good. The portions were generous, the toppings were fresh, and the gochujang sauce had great flavor. The banchans were sooo tasty as well. I can see why this place was selected as a local gem in North Austin.

Everything was delicious and fresh! I had the beef gimbad. I can say it was so goood. To pair with it I had the Kimchi cucumber. So refreshing each bite. 10/10 would recommend. The staff were very friendly and inviting.

The bibimbap and gimbap are so good, but I was surprised about how much I loved the purple rice pudding! Very creamy and just the right amount of sweetness. I prefer ordering ahead and picking up, that way I’m certain I’ll get exactly what I want! I love having such a convenient and delicious options nearby. The staff there too are really sweet and I’ve enjoyed the pop-ups they’ve hosted as well!

Stopped by purple rice around 1:30 PM and it looks like they had a busy day so there was only a few dishes left, but I was still able to get a variety of things. I talked to the owner and they do cook twice a day to replenish their stock. They mainly do this to keep their foods fresh and high-quality. I tried the bibimbap, kimbap, chicken stew, beef bone soup, and a variety of their banchan. They make everything in house, including all of the sauces. The prices are pretty reasonable too. They are located in a plaza so there’s plenty of parking. This is considered a grab and go concept, but they do have a few tables inside where you can eat as well. And especially liked bibimbap, Kimbap, and banchan.

Great food, kind and friendly staff.
I have been curious about trying Korean food and when I saw this new spot with good reviews, I decided to try. They did not disappoint. I will definitely be going back on days when I’m too tired to cook after work. Their healthy ingredients will help me reach my new years goals. My favorite were the Doshirak and Gimbap.

The marinated eggs are great! Half of mine were soft-boiled, the other two were medium-boiled. I prefer the soft.
The beef bulgogi bibimbap was good, sauce was good. Smart decision to keep them separate (veggies in fridge, meat in warmer). It didn’t taste right off the grill, but it was great for a warmer.
The shop is cute and I love the variety of options. The staff is friendly. I’ve been back a second time this week, and I’ll keep it in my routine.
