My wife and I recently enjoyed a fantastic dining experience at this Korean-American restaurant. The food was fresh, delicious, and had a touch of American flavor. I had the BBQ pork with kimchi rice, which had an amazing smoky flavor. The aroma of the grill was enticing, reminiscent of charcoal-cooked kabobs. My wife loved her crispy and delicious chicken bowl. The restaurant’s ambiance was great, with BTS-style pictures adorning the walls. The restroom was exceptionally clean and well-equipped, offering dental and women’s care products. It’s a rare find in San Jose to have a late-night dining option, making this place even more appealing. Overall, it’s an amazing restaurant that combines tasty food, a trendy atmosphere, and convenient hours. Highly recommended!

if you’re hungry and want huge portions for a good price this is the spot!!!! never been to a restaurant with a robo waiter before so that was cool— you can order and pay on your phone and then just sit back and wait for the robot. flavorful and filling. the bowl is probably the best bang for your buck. the staff were all really friendly and helpful.

First off; important to note that the establishment changed name/owner, from Kotetsu Ramen to Rice Junky) so the Google reviews are mixed from past and future.

Fun new-ish restaurant. I’m no expert in food, but i can say that both the bowls we had were very tasty. The fried pork was cooked great. Crispy outside, with tender meat inside. The beef bowl was also very nicely prepared. No complaints. The staff was friendly. And for fun, they have a robot waiter to bring you the dishes.

They use a cute robot to deliver your food to your table! I know this has been a norm in Asia countries but it is still quite a sight to see it here in the Bay Area. Food wise it was decent. The Firery Mountain ramen was too spicy (you can’t change spicy level) but the CC chicken and pork skewers were Perfecto.

Had delicious vegetarian Kimchi Udon noodles. So delicious. Comes in only one spice level, but if you chew the noodles well, you don’t feel the heat. The restaurant was buzzing and so it took a little to serve, but totally worth the wait.

Dope Pork Bowl is flavorful beyond measure and so reasonably priced.

Love this cute hidden place across Target. It’s perfect for a casual hang with beers and good food. We got the CC chicken plate and the bulgogi bowl. Both were really good. The only con would be the soju cocktail was a little too sweet but it was still nice and refreshing. And yes, that is a popsicle used as ice.

really nice atmosphere here. my friends and I arrived a little less than an hour before closing and they very kindly let us know the kitchen was closing in about 18 minutes but that we were still able to order. service was super nice and gave good suggestions.
