RICEBOY

Food was okay. Not too expensive, but not the most impressive either. Do Not (!!) get the beef bulgogi bowl. The beef looks appetizing and juicy in the picture- it is not! It's dry and has no flavor but an aftertaste. Tried the spicy pork and squid- that was pretty good, nice portion. The garlic chicken was crunchy and flavorful. Service was friendly tho :)

Don’t get the chicken cutlet. It’s not made how it’s advertised. The chicken was over cooked and sauce was added to the top of the chicken which tasted so horrible. I asked for another chicken cutlet without the sauce and I was given a hard time. It wasn’t edible. The corn and baked beans were chilled in which should have been warm. 👎

Me and my siblings were shopping around H-mart and came across the store while sitting down. We ordered the Spicy Pork Cup- C4, he filled it up all the way and even threw in some spicy rice cakes for free! The service was amazing and we enjoyed our food, definitely going back!!

I eat a lot of Korean food. The rice cake a.k.a. tteobokki/ddukkbokki here is terrible. It gave me an awful stomachache and I only had 3 bites. Sauce taste was very artificial and it was overall very lukewarm so I trashed it immediately. They had it precooked and kept on a food warming tray but they it def. wasn’t at the required food safety temperature of 140 degrees. Eat at your own risk!!!

Great portion sizes and prices! We got the soy garlic chicken and crunchy tofu - both great! Staff was nice too.

The H Mart on Northern Boulevard is having a cool deal where you can buy food at there food court for 30% off until the end of August! That sounded like such a great deal. I decided to go and check out what they had to offer. I'm a sucker for soy garlic chicken so that was the first thing I jumped for. Overall, a pretty decent bowl. There was a good amount of meat in there, and in my opinion, a whole lot of rice, but that's pretty standard. The H Mart food court itself is a bit weird because all of the food stands are right after the cash registers so it's a bit clustered in that area, but the food is good so no complaints here. I go here for a date? No, but a quick bite hell yea!

food was good but vegans beware the tofu rice bowl comes with spicy mayo (not vegan). but it didn’t ruin the meal because you can scrape it off. otherwise very good! one of the few places in the Long Island City H-Mart Food Court that has a vegetarian/vegan option.

Rice Boy is adjacent to Kimganae in the food court inside Hmart LIC. By and large, they complement each other pretty well in terms of covering Korean street food, with just a few overlaps. Rice Boy is a bit more casual and at slightly lower price points. Grand-opened in May'24 with 30% discount throught Aug'24. Their signature offerings are the Cupbops, with many spins and mixes of (non-soup) Korean cuisines placed inside a paper bowl: boneless chicken, glass noodles, kimchi, bulgogi, fried dumplings, etc. Another main offerings are the mini pots/stews: tofu based and soy bean paste based soup dishes. These pretty much occupy 2/3 of its menu space. - Sweet & Spicy Chicken Cupbop $10. Very safe and balanced dish. Good mix of glass noodle, rice and garden salad in addition to the boneless chicken. - Soy Garlic Chicken Cupbop $11. Ditto the above, except the price just gone up between our visits! Can't go wrong with either one, except this one is saltier and missing the kick that the other one has. - Jajiang Noodle $13. Dry udon with onion and jajiang sauce and noodled cucumber. This was the first time I have jajiang on udon. It's OK but I prefer thinner type of noodle with this dish. - Soft Tofu Soup with Seafood $13. This is the classic Sundubu that I love. Hot, spicy with heavy seafood flavor and tantalizing texture of soft tofu. - Beef Denjang $ 13. This is the soy bean paste version of sundubu. This was the first time I tried it and definitely my last. Essentially miso soup base which is too lame for me. 3.5 but round down to 3 to differentiate my rating on Kimganae (4).
