BOPBOX

We really enjoyed our visit to BOPBOX. The atmosphere was a bit on the small side, but it didn’t take away from the experience at all. The food was absolutely amazing. My wife had the Japchae Noodles, and they were full of flavor and perfectly cooked. I had the Chicken Stir-Fried Yakisoba, which was outstanding—fresh, savory, and incredibly satisfying. Definitely a place worth visiting for the food alone.

There is limited seating, a lot of people takeout. The food tastes good, but the meat quality is average.

This place is the bop dot com (bad joke). In all seriousness the food is incredible. I got some type of Korean bento box with tofu and it was incredible. Very tasty, healthy, and filling. I’ll definitely be back for more.

I ordered the Mom's Medley Bibimbop. Sadly it did not come in a hot stone bowl but in wide shallow regular bowl like for pasta. The portion of rice felt too small for the veggie sides. The only hot item in the bowl was the meat (I chose the glazed pork belly and it was hot and delicious 5⭐️ My partner got the bulgogi which was a bit dry for me) Since the sunny egg was not hot, I'd recommend subbing for the jammy egg instead for the extra flavor. The kale tempura inclusion was a great texture variation for the dish. I'll have to try the dishes that come in the skillets next time.

I tried this place on a whim and I am so glad! They have the BEST Spicy Chicken Stir-Fried Yakisoba!! I also tried the Soy-Cured Jammy Eggs (My first time), so DELICIOUS. There is not much seating if you want to dine in, however the staff are super friendly.

Swung by for a quick lunch and we got some very nourishing, colorful and veggie-heavy dishes to try. It's Korean fusion with a lot of emphasis on freshness and variety, and everything was tasty. Especially enjoyed their spicy pork belly and crispy kale chips. Staff were very friendly and it's a cute, quiet little nook in Georgetown. Would stop by again if I was in the neighborhood :)

I literally dream about their Mom's Medley. Endlessly customizable and so healthy and hearty! I always get the side of kale tempura and if there are any desserts on offer - get one! You won't be sorry.

We stopped by Bopbox for dinner before going to see a friend’s band nearby. The space has really good vibes and really good communication. The tempura kale is incredible- try it. Got the japchae and it was well made and good. I did not the spicy one- which I regretted after trying the one my hubby got. They have vegan options for their items and that’s great. The spicy cucumber was good. The house made drink was well balanced and flavorful. I got the gingerade with chia seeds. Looking forward to ordering from them and going back, and experiencing their food in more compostable/sustainable packaging. Really liked the vibes. Good post meal feels.

I'm a big fan of Made in House in Fremont, and I was equally satisfied with their sister restaurant in Georgetown. Really good mains and side dishes. Also happens to be right near my kid's class at SANCA, so will be passing by on the regular :)

First time here. Good stuff. Tried the bibimbap and the bulgogi. Should have ordered banchan but next time. There will be a next time for sure - this was enjoyable. I always feel bad posting shots of takeout but it is what it is. On a dreary rainy day I can't get the better half to eat out so takeout it is. Fusion is a good descriptor for the offerings - one thing that stood out was the kale. Never in my life did I imagine I'd be raving about kale :D but the tempura kale was really, really good. Crunchy and tasty. Didn't really like the parking situation - but that's a minor consideration for pickup.

Good. Always ready quickly and always pretty good overall. Bad. Service doesn't exist. I say have a nice night to the one person working there and they grunt at me. Why do I even tip anything? Extra bad. Prices going up every 4 months or so. Told my wife we probably won't order here anymore. $52.00 for two meals Togo, can't do it. Thanks for the good eats.

You can choose either a bibimbap or a bowl and I got the food to go. The decor is minimal but the food is decent. Service was fine, but I don't expect much when getting food to go. Overall, easy place to get a quick meal to go.

I think people are way too kind to this place. And I can see why they want to be. Simple bop box food is trendy and hipster-friendly. But this particular food is not made with love. It's crude. It's over spiced. It's over cooked. It's over heated. And it's overpriced. I wonder if it's not made by an angry chef. I'm sorry but it just doesn't hit the mark. It also doesn't look good in the bowl. I was very disappointed.

4.5 - So good!! My sister and I stopped in for lunch yesterday, I got the bulgogi bopbowl and she got mom's bibimbap. Next time I'll get what she had but add the beef and marinated egg! The veggies were fresh and good, only complaint would be the cucumbers were a bit too pickled - tasted like pickles not cucumber. Maybe just an old batch?

Updating my review after giving this place another try--and it definitely redeemed itself! I think the last time was just a one-off with the dish being too salty. This time around, everything was much better. Thr mom box either bulgogi is my go to. My favorite part is still the tempura kale--it's so good--and I always love getting a side of the tempura and a side of their pickles. Definitely a great lunch spot if you're in the area. That said, it's still a bit on the pricey side, but the quality makes it feel more worth it now.

ugh we forgot to take pictures of our food! the jammy eggs were perfection and the side order of purple rice was MASSIVE. the soy glazed wings and japchae were great as well. price point is a bit high but well worth it since there's not many good korean restaurants in the neighborhood.

Loved the banchan sampler ... I think that's what I ordered.... Couldn't decide what to get - everything looked so good, and then I found this banchan sampler thing and I got it ALL. So good. My bf got some rice with pork. He said there was only a couple pieces of meat. For the price, it seemed a bit like a rip off for him, so minus a star. But I loved mine!

When I came in to eat, this place was easily 5 stars. The eggs, the kale, the wings were all incredible, but when I got the exact same order as takeout a few weeks later, it was massively disappointing. The eggs had almost no sauce and the wings weren't crispy or fried well, and the kale was soggy. I set a pickup time so it's not like it sat for a long time before I got it or ate it, so I can only recommend dining in at this place (which was great, don't get me wrong!)

Some of the best Asian food we've had since being in Seattle! Flavors are divine and the food is always made so fresh and steaming hot. Options for meat eaters and vegans, which is a huge plus. The spice level is definitely there, which we appreciate! Japchae Noodle Bop and house daily pickles are my personal favorites.

I found this place on Yelp. I checked out the pictures, and the food looked absolutely amazing. I stopped by for a late lunch. I ordered on a tablet at the front. There is also staff towards the back that take food orders. It took me a few minutes to decide because everything looked and sounded really good. There are a few tables to dine inside and a few tables to dine outside. It seems more like a place to grab and go. The food was ready in fifteen minutes. I decided to try the Mom's Medley with chicken and a Bulgogi Ribeye Bowl. Both items were delicious. I really liked the variety and how colorful the medley bowl was. The chicken was also cooked and seasoned well. The bulgogi was tender and flavorful. If you are in the area, this is definitely a good place to check out.

What yummy food! We went to BopBox because we had an event nearby in Georgetown, but also because of its stellar Yelp reviews. We were not disappointed! The place is tiny! There were 5 of us, and we were lucky enough to get one of the two large tables in the establishment. There's some additional seating along the window, but that's about it. The person at the counter indicated that the place isn't really a sit-down place; most people order to-go. And he was right about the latter; there was a steady stream of Uber Eats and Grub Hub drivers coming through the place while we were there. My girlfriend ordered the stir-fried Yakisoba Soy Braised Tofu (vegetarian for her!), and I ordered the Eemo's Kimchi Fried Rice with Spicy Tofu, with a request to be made extra spicy. I love spicy food, and the Fried Rice, with yummy kimchi in it, did not let me down! My girlfriend loved her dish. Two others of us ordered exactly the same dishes (although less spicy). I noticed that they had the Yona Yona Ale from Yoho Brewing in Japan. It used to be that you couldn't find this beer in the US. It was tasty complement to our dishes that three of us ordered. We wanted Kimchi for the table, but they were out that day. I was seriously bummed. Note: you'll use their in-store kiosk to place your order if you're eating in. Be sure to select your utensils when placing your order or you won't be able to pay. That was not obvious to any of us.

Had the Bento, with garlic chicken as a protein. SUBLIME! (Very limited seating, however!) We'll be back

This was one of the closest Korean food we could find near West Seattle with good amount of veggies. The staff in front were great and kind. We couldn't stop raving about how good it was all day, and recommended it to our friends who are locals to try it out! The tempura kale really changed the bibimbap experience.

I'm updating my review due to a decline in food quality and service. The Spicy, Smokey, Sautéed with tofu--once a favorite--is now sadly underwhelming. Disappointed to see the fresh rolls removed from the menu as well. What used to be a standout lunch spot has become just another Korean place.

Had been wanting to try this place for a while and wish I hadn't waited so long! I had the banchan bento with salmon and it was the best variety of flavors and then salmon was cooked perfectly!

Went for lunch on a weekend afternoon. Food was great and they have a decent amount of variety with proteins and sauce options. The tempura kale was something my I'd never tried before but was very fun. The potions are huge! I'd recommend sharing unless you're famished. Super fast service and the employee was very nice. Cute vibes in a cute area. I don't think I'll trek down to south seattle just for this spot, but if you're in the area it's worth a try.

Swung by for a quick lunch and we got some very nourishing, colorful and veggie-heavy dishes to try. It's Korean fusion with a lot of emphasis on freshness and variety, and everything was tasty. Especially enjoyed their spicy pork belly and crispy kale chips. Staff were very friendly and it's a cute, quiet little nook in Georgetown. Would stop by again if I was in the neighborhood :)

Quick, friendly service. Very chill atmosphere and yummy eggs! There's wonderful window seating for street watching :)

Stopping here is a must if you're in the area. The kimchi fried rice with pork belly is my go-to.

Of course after trying Made in House, I wanted to try Bopbox. Got the daily bento with bulgogi and yakisoba with spicy chicken. Loved the kale tempura and egg plant in the bento. The bulgogi is so flavorful. The yakisoba was great too and loved the addition of kale in it. You get a lot of noodles with this meal! Also got the wild raspberry hibiscus drink which was a bit water downed. This place has a few seats in it but noticed most people order to go. Highly recommend putting in your order before coming since the wait can be a bit long.

It's perfect. Like, all of it. No notes. They have it handled. Fresh. Flavorful. Everything compliments everything.

We really enjoyed the flavors and spin on Korean food. Everything tasted good. The fried mushrooms were a highlight: crisp but not greasy with good flavor. I love pickles and these did not disappoint. The bi bam bap sadly did not have the crisp rice of a hot stone bowl, but the flavors of Everything on it were great. I would have preferred to get the spicy wings.

I'm always a little hesitant to try Korean places because my mom's home cooking has set such a high standard. But I am so happy I tried out Bopbox! This small shop is in Georgetown and their menu offers a selection of rice bowls. They have bibimbap, which is a classic korean dish, as well as a bibim salad, kimchi fried rice, and bulgogi or spicy pork over rice. They also have noodle dishes - a japchae bowl and yakisoba. The item that caught my eye was the Bopbox'd dosirak (it's called a bento on the menu) - it was really pretty and colorful and offered a variety of everything. You get rice and your choice of protein, a gochugaru napa slaw, pickled red cabbage, kale tempura (twi-gim!!), japchae, a soft boiled egg, and a small piece of tofu spring roll. For my protein, I picked the spicy pork bulgogi - that's one of my favorite Korean dishes to eat. I ordered through the self-service kiosk. The shop has two tables that can seat 4-5 people and then two bar seating areas that seat two people each, so it's not huge. But a lot of people were picking up takeaway orders. I ate my food there - water and utensils are self-serve. AND THEY HAVE THE METAL CUPS AND REAL METAL CHOPSTICKS. It was just so nostalgic for me because that's something you see a lot in restaurants in Korea and legit restaurants in K-town. My food came out pretty quickly too. My dosirak was beautiful - very colorful. And it was DELICIOUS. The pork was cooked perfectly and had a great flavor - nice spicy kick. The veggies were fresh and very good. The kale twi-gim blew me away. The fried part was so light and the whole thing was so crispy. It was one of my favorite parts of the meal. I was sad when I ate all of them lol. The egg was perfect. The spring roll was cute. And the rice was purple rice - just like my mom makes!!! It was so much food that i couldn't finish it and took the rest home for dinner later. The employee working up front was super nice - gave me a lid and a bag for my leftovers as I raved about my dosirak (especially the kale). He even mentioned that they have a sister restaurant up in Fremont that I now have to check out! I love some of the twists they do with their food and love that the bowls or customizable (you can sub out the egg or sub out the rice, etc. And the veggies were so good and I desperately need to eat more vegetables in my life. Can't wait to try the kimchi fried rice next!

Great texture and flavor. I love the crunchy kale and the soy cured eggs were yum. When I got there, there was no line. It was $50 for two meals (one had salmon) and the eggs, and we just had water.

A Korean restaurant without classic kimchee? Kale kimchee? KALE? Get serious. The pickled zucchini was pretty good, though. I ordered beef and got pork (I was too damned tired to make a fuss over it). The menu will nickel and dime you to death and their self-service ordering kiosk takes you to dead ends. Parking sucks, but that's true of all businesses in the area. The decor is more industrial than Korean (but this IS Georgetown). More like "Korean inspired." It was okay but I'll look for somewhere else next time I'm staying in the area.

Excellent fast casual Korean food. Ordering was easy on a kiosk and the food came out quickly. It was plentiful and plenty tasty!

I've had Bopbox on my list for years and finally made it a point to come in. The menu is easy to understand and there are a lot is different options/ variations you can do (based on protein choice). I opted for the bento with grilled chicken. Everything about this bento was amazing, except for the chicken. The chicken was dry and hard. But other than that, it was all delicious. The egg was a perfect soft boil, the yolk creamy. The spring roll bite packed so much flavor despite being vegetables and tofu. The cabbage kimchi, flavorful without being overpowering. The japchae was one of the best I've had. The tempura kale was super crispy and not too oily. Service is friendly and food comes out fast.

I wanted to explore or visit Georgetown since I haven't been in so long! I ordered the ribeye bulgogi with sunny side up egg and the japchae with pork belly. Both were so delicious! I was hungry so I ordered two items, ok?! I liked the japchae a little bit more so I finished that. The japchae had rice underneath but I liked it coz the rice soaked up some of the extra sauce. The pork belly was perfect with the japchae. It wasn't too fatty or too oily. The bulgogi was also really delicious! This is a small place so there's only a few tables inside but there's outdoor seating as well. I noticed that there's quite a few Uber orders so they must be pretty popular! And rightfully so! I'd love to try this place again next time I'm Georgetown.

This as far as I'm concerned is some of the best food in the city if you can afford it This is absolutely fantastic

I liked the variety of the bento box, bright sides that kept my interest with the exception of the bulgogi, that was a bit tough and meh flavored. Kimchi fried rice was a flavor bomb and texture had a good bite. Decent food, nice vibes.

I have been wanting to try this place out for awhile. Was checking out a space down the block for work so ordered to pick up. Didn't read carefully enough to realize that an egg was already on it and added another but it worked out perfectly cause I was sharing with a friend. I got the Mom's Medley and added a cucumber kimchi and an egg went with the hot boo sauce. The ingredients were fresh and a generous portion. I enjoyed the variety of textures the tempura kale was a nice touch, and the sauce was spicy but not overly. My friend bought a passionfruit spritzer for me. Was good but could've had a little more passionfruit but that's a personal preference I like the passionfruit to be tart Service was friendly and the order was ready to go when I arrived. Space is clean and lots of natural light

Ordered for delivery and was disappointed. Bulgogi beef was ok, yakisoba was pretty bland, wings were a bit soggy and the sauce was meh. Overall, everything just lacked flavor.

This is an absolutely fantastic restaurant in Georgetown. Delicious and creative Korean food. There's a lot of variety available including a number of delicious side dishes. They don't serve alcohol. So it's a great place to stop to eat a delicious dinner before you bar hop up and down Airport Way. The staff is very friendly and helpful and everything they serve is delicious in my experience. They do a brisk takeout business but they also have very cozy and comfortable seating inside so you can sit and eat. Try their bento with either the ribeye or the salmon. I couldn't recommend this restaurant more highly.

BOPBOX is a good Korean Restaurant. I ordered two Bop Bowels, which consisted of the bulgogi ribeye bowl and the kimchi fried rice bowl with bacon. The bulgogi bowl was excellent, the bowl had amazing flavor, and the portion size was large. The kimchi fried rice bowl was good, but the kimchi was the only flavor you could taste in the bowl. The kimchi fried rice bowl was topped with an egg, but I personally thought it needed 2 or 3 eggs to balance the flavors in fried rice and add richness to the dish. Overall, I was very pleased with my meal. I would eat here again.

Ordered yakisoba to go for lunch and it is the WORST yakisoba I've ever had. It was super salty with a sour undertone. When I was waiting in the restaurant, I saw the lady at the front weighing out the noodles, maybe they should also measure how much sauce they are putting in their noodles, I've never had such salty yakisoba. Perhaps I should not have trust a Lorena restaurant to perfect a Japanese dish. Nevertheless. Do not recommend yakisoba and will NOT come back.

Such good food. Small place so mostly a takeout joint but thoroughly enjoyed my Bipmbap. Will bring family here on my next trip into the SODO area

I am hooked on their food. Wish I was closer and would definitely eat there once a week. The portions are great and consistent. Definitely recommend any to stop in.

These folks don't need another five star review but I'm gonna give it! Haha Small dining room with amazing Asian fusion bowls. They also have lots of local bevvies and this part of town is super cute. The staff was nice and fairly speedy given how busy they were during the lunch hour. Be aware though, there are only like 12 seats in the whole place. Feel terrible I can't remember but I got but the picture speaks for itself. Go here!

Thank you for bringing back the salmon and the jalapeño soy sauce!!! Also, love your vegan daikon kimchi - yum! Today, I ordered 2 mom's medley - one with salmon and the jalapeño soy (fave) and one with just veggies and tahini sauce - both are delicious!

BOPBOX is one of my favorite go to restaurants. They are quick, have lots of vegan options and the food is great. The place is really cute and can be fun to eat at, especially in the summer. It's pretty small, so we generally do take out. My personal favorite is the Yakisoba with spicy tofu. It's got so much flavor, and the portion is pretty large. It's one of those meals you know you should save some leftovers but then eat anyway and regret it. The best. Folks at the counter at super helpful and kind. Would recommend to anyone looking for a Korean style place to eat.

We decided to try this place after hearing a lot of compliments about their vegan options and it was the best decision. The restaurant is not big but very clean and organized. The food was amazing, so far this place has the best mushroom tempura, the mushrooms are really thick and juicy, we love the spicy sauce that goes with it, they match really well , the other dishes were delicious too. The only tiny minus point is it's hard to find a parking space, we came in around 6pm but it's not a big deal for a good restaurant, we will definitely come back.

I'm not sure whether you can call this place authentic Korean cuisine or 'Korean-inspired'. Is it worth the visit? Read on... THE ROSES: The food itself is actually good; quite good, as a matter of fact. Ingredients are top-quality and the dishes are very tasty. Pretty much everything - including sauces - are made in-house (and I DO love their sauces - particularly the Hot Bop sauce, which is amazing !). Staff was very pleasant. THE THORNS: If you come by car, getting here can be a challenge. Street parking is very limited. There is a pay lot about a block away, but at $5 that may seem a bit steep if you're just wanting to pop in to grab some pickup (it appears most of their business is 'to-go'). Traffic on Airport Way, particularly during rush hour, can be really bad. Inside dining space is rather limited. There is no table service; you order either online on your own device or use a touchpad in the restaurant that isn't the quickest to navigate. This can be a challenge if you have people waiting to use it. This place also seems a bit expensive for what you're getting: a 'Mom's Medley bibimap bowl with an extra egg, extra meat, side pickle and sauce with a cup of tea set me back over $35. THE VERDICT: I'm honestly not sure the food and service (which are great!) completely offset the hassles of traffic and parking. With a total bill for the Mrs. and I being around $80 (and no booze!), we're starting to get into a Fine Dining price point. I guess if you can avoid going nuts on the extras, you can get this down more into the good Value for Money range. Recommend.

This place has been on my list for a long time but I've never quite made it and I was missing out! It's a take-out only place right now. Ordering was super easy - the options in each dish are laid out in 3 steps of choosing protein, sauce, and add-ons. Lots of chances to substitute and subtract for dietary needs. I ordered two mom's medleys - one with bulgogi ribeye and hot bop and one with ginger tahini. They cooked one egg all the way as I requested it and one was sunny side up - and perfect. Both dishes were DELICIOUS. First of all, they were beautiful - colorful and fresh. Secondly, the proteins were chopped up really fine so you could get tastes all throughout - but not so fine you didn't get the texture. And speaking of texture - wow - so many different moments of crisp and fermented and dense and light. Every bite was colorful and interesting and a little bit different. Serving sizes were generous but not ridiculous. I can't wait to go again!

I love this place!! The Korean food here is so authentic and delicious. The venue is small so I saw several people ordering take out. It's a bit pricy but worth it if you happen to find yourself in Seattle's Georgetown neighborhood.

I usually don't love Korean (or Korean inspired) food nowadays bc it tends to lose the best authentic flavors by trying to be different or trendy or more American-friendly. Bopbox really made me happy. I like the flavors and the changes just made the food more colorful, more textures -- all things that work with traditional Korean flavor. I had the regular bibimbap but got two eggs bc I didn't understand the ordering method .. but if I go there again, I know how to do it. The service was very attentive and really working hard to make sure everyone had a clean place to sit and had their food quickly. All good things here. Definitely go!

*vegan review* Went here with a friend for dinner and it was SO YUMMY, can't wait to go back! I ordered the japchae with spicy tofu and loved it. I wouldn't call it very spicy, just well seasoned with a tiny tiny kick (which was perfect for me!) I appreciated that the vegan menu items/options were clearly labeled. The woman working was also very sweet :) Excited to try their sister restaurant Made In House too!

We ordered 4x Mom's Medley bibimbap and added bulgogi to each as an extra. Bulgogi was a SALT BOMB that ruined our meal for the whole family, yuck.
