Tofu Story 두부 이야기

Went there with a friend, very clean interior, it was new. The mixed tofu soup was very good, had both red meat and seafood, as well as soft tofu. The rice freshly cooked in the small ga-ma-sot was so cute and tasty. The BBQ meat was burned, and we only realized it after we started eating and flipping the pieces. We ended up calling the waiter because it was so bad. We only asked to replace pieces we hadn't eaten to be fair, but they replaced it with a whole new plate (we only had eaten a few pieces anyway). At least they responded very gracefully. There were only two waiters that day so thing were overall bit slow. But they were both polite and helpful. The price is not cheap but the soft tofu soup itself was good.

Clean and well-lit interior with elegant decor. Dishes overall were good, BBQ ribs were tender and juicy, seafood pancake was crispy yet had a soft interior. Staffs were attentive and friendly. Like their chairs which provide good support surprisingly. Reasonable price. I’d recommend it.

A delightful Korean restaurant in the Austin area. We were particularly excited to try the tofu soup, as we had an excellent experience with BCD Tofu in New York City’s Chinatown. The beef tofu soup here was quite good, with a nice spicy kick that I really enjoyed. The pancake was crispy and flavorful, adding to the overall experience. Overall, this is an above-average Korean restaurant. On top of that, the atmosphere was great—quiet, spacious, and with plenty of room between tables for a comfortable dining experience.

Spicy tofu soup with rice? That’s the most classic Korean dish everyone must try! Strongly recommend this place, of course you can choose how spicy you want your dish to be. The tofu is made in house, so fresh and vegetarian friendly 👍

The soup here is packed with flavor! They did an excellent job crafting it, and the balance of spices was just right. I ordered it medium spicy, and it turned out absolutely delicious!

Food and service are very good. Just need a little patience, only two servers tonight and i think the guy is new (you know what i means) and the waitress is running around to take order, deliver the dishes.. and she still keep her smile. Excellent 😁

TofuStory is a brand new Tofu soup (Sundubu) restaurant located in the heart of Allston, with large glass windows to be able to peek inside. There was a decent amount of people waiting before we arrived, but we were seated nearly instantly. They have a large amount of seating, as well as a screen playing Korean music while I was there. The service is good, very hectic but able to place our order in a timely manner. There was an accident with spilled water when we came, but they were very professional about it and cleaned it up nearly instantly. The prices are reasonable, portions are a bit on the smaller side than what I am used to, but the flavors are good with the Sundubu. I got the pork version, and the tofu was very soft and the pork was good as well. I got the medium spice level, but it was still pretty spicy even at that spice level, so I would recommend getting mild if you cannot handle spice. Banchan was pretty standard, except for a tofu that came with some sauce. It was very soft and the sauce helped compliment the tofu very well. My only issues were the wait time for the food and the Kimchi pancake. I am used to more crispy kimchi pancake, but the one I got was a bit soggy and fell apart easily, and didn't have much flavor outside of the kimchi. It was also priced the same as the tofu soup, which for the portions was good, but I probably wouldn't get it again. The wait time for the food after ordering was also around 20-25 minutes, which seemed kind of long compared to other restaurants. However, I would assume since this is a new restaurant and it was a busy day, it would be better during less peak hours. Overall a great experience, with some minor issues that I believe can be worked out.

Sister restaurant to Gopchang Story, we finally tried it for an early dinner, and it exceeded our expectations. The spacious layout offers plenty of seating, and the large windows were open today since it was such a nice day, which I always appreciate. My partner and I enjoyed our meal by the window, which was perfect. Though they’re known for their soondubu, we opted for the kimchi and pork mandu (dumplings) to start and the BBQ special: spicy braised short rib with potatoes, rice cakes, and torched cheese. We had a similar dish in California and have been searching for it since. We’re so glad we tried this; the beef was incredibly tender, and everything was cooked to perfection. The portion was substantial—advertised for two but could easily feed three. The dumplings were pan-seared to perfection with a nice crunch, and the kimchi balanced well with the pork. The banchan was simple yet flavorful, and refills were available. White rice was complimentary with each dish. Service was friendly and attentive. This place has definitely become a new favorite in Allston.
