The tastiest pot of food I’ve had in a long time. This meal was just tantalizing to the taste buds you can tell a lot of care and tradition went into making this.

If you are not a fan of tofu don’t let that put you off as this is just mind blowing and they do offer none tofu options for the meat lovers out there.

Perfect place for a bowl of Tofu soup. Amount is more than sufficient, price is justified, the service is moderately quick. I had the seafood tofu soup which was delicious. Definitely worth a visit.

While living in Palo Alto this was one of my go-to places. It was five minutes away from my house and I would go all the time just to eat the spicy seafood soft tofu pot. The food was authentic, made well and consistently tasted good. The service wasn't that great and because of the need to preserve water, water was not given to tables and instead served through a self serve service at the back of the restaurant in a giant water jug.

Good food reasonable prices. Excellent place. Nothing like being served a boiling dish of soup and getting to crack a fresh egg into it. The veggie Bimibap was a little too simple but adding kimchi helped. Soups are excellent. A good foray into Korean food beyond the BBQ.

Reasonable Korean in Palo Alto. I had the Bibimbob (beef and vegetables) at lunch here and it was good. This is not a spicy dish, but some of the other items on the menu are authentic Korean hot. There was limited banchan served with lunch, but it was good. A little more expensive than average for lunch. Service was good and food arrived pretty quickly, but we made sure to get here before noon.

I enjoyed this place...the service is very friendly and the food is good. The only thing I don't like about this place is that it closes on Sundays!!!! Anyways good Korean food especially with limited choices in Palo Alto!

I am a huge fan of the traditional tofu stew. If you’re a fan of new and interesting food experiences, I highly suggest trying it.

I absolutely love Tofu House, especially their short ribs and their beef bibimbap-- both are so delicious! Their seafood pancake is good, although I've definitely had better before. It's a bit pricey, however. Still, this is my family's number one go-to Korean restaurant in the area.

Love this place. Just so yummy! Now they have outdoor seating and are very safe for Covid 19 guidelines. No raw foods anymore and they ask if you want utensils. All plates and cups are disposable.

Like this place. Good overall from price to taste (authentic to me) and service. Staff can be busy, so sometimes just need to be bold asking for things. It was busy even for lunch during weekdays when we went, so it's probably a busy place in general (no surprise).

Came here on a Thursday night. There were plenty of parking spots outside and even though there were a lot of people inside, we were seated right away. I forgot to check Yelp to see what was good here so I ordered the regular bimbimbap. Service was speedy and efficient and I got my food quickly (under 15 minutes). My bimbimbap came out in a metal bowl, not the sizzling stone pot that I'm used to seeing this dish in. Not a big deal cuz it meant I could chow down right away without waiting for it to stop fogging up my glasses and cool down substantially. However I did wish that my food was hotter. It was just kinda lukewarm which made me think whether it was made and just sitting in the kitchen for a while (I'm no Korean food connoisseur so maybe that's just how this dish is made/eaten if not in the stone pots?) On the flip side I liked that my bimbimbap wasn't oily or greasy like at most other Korean restaurants. I only squirted a little bit of their sauce into my bowl so overall it tasted healthy and homemade. At the end of the day, it was a cheap, satisfying meal especially since it came with all the side dishes and miso soup. I even had enough leftovers for breakfast the next morning. I'll probably be back and next time I'll try the tofu soup dishes haha

If you go for dinner on weekends, go earlier, or you end up waiting outside. The food is okay. We had tofu crab soup and hot stone bowel. Crab is frozen so the flavor basically depend on spices. Their small plates are pretty good. Price is okay for a weekend dinner but personally I would expect a lower price for what I get. In this area it might be difficult to find an authentic Korean restaurant with the same quality and price. So, not much to complain. :)a

Delicious food and very COVID-19 conscious take-out practices. This has been my spouse's favorite take out pickup restaurant thus far
