This bowl that is pictured (I forget the name but an egg was added at my buddy’s suggestion) was one of the best meals I have had in a long time

Stopped on our way down from Wisconsin, and would definitely return. The food was delicious and the portions definitely exceeded my expectations. They had free barley tea and water available, as well as many korean drinks you could buy. The service was very sweet and kind. The place was impeccably clean.

I’ve been scoping out restaurants in the area and happened to find Bibim Town really close to home. It was incredible!! I got the J-Bop with white rice, spicy pork, and an egg and I cleaned my plate. Everything’s made from scratch (even the kimchi) and tasted so fresh. I’m excited to go back and would highly recommend checking it out! It’s an absolute gem of a place and I’m so glad that I decided to go 🤗

I'm really glad I found this place. Food tastes fresh and delicious. I love that I can get a healthy serving of vegetables and proteins as tasty Korean food. I have tried the Bibim Bap (Vege Lover) and added the spicy pork, and then the Jim Bap (Bento style, with rice, Spicy pork again because its delicious, vegetables and some appetizers) The kimchi is pickled well and tastes delicious. They do make everything fresh here from scratch. I plan to come back for sure, and try the noodles next (Jjolmyeon which is a spicy chewy cold noodle) Also, they serve barley tea with the meals (cold in the summer time and hot in the winter time) and I love barley tea. Place is also clean and has a nice vibe. I'll be back!

Enjoyed the B2 Cup Bap, with beef bulgogi and a side of sunny side egg well done. The dish was super tasty, very generous portion, and the aroma was just special. Growing up in the Philippines, I've always had a soft spot for sunny side fried eggs with crunchy white edges, and now I discover this place. :-)

This place is such a hidden gem! Super clean, cozy, and the food was amazing. I loved everything I tried, but the ddeokbokki was hands down my favorite! Definitely coming back!

As a Korean, this restaurant’s food is really good, and the owner is kind and nice. Place and food also are really clean and delicious. I personally never saw any restaurant cook this delicious bibimbap like here in the USA. I highly recommend this place. I always get bibimbap but this time I tried Jip bap. It was really delicious as well!!!!!! So nice.!!!!
