First time eating here and it was delicious. I ordered a tofu rice bowl with my choice of toppings and sauce. Quails of food was fresh and I had excellent service from Jay and the rest of the employees working! Definitely recommend!

Oh yeah, this place is cool. Like Subway and South Korean street food had a baby. Fast service, lots of choices and the tastes of Korean comfort food. My spouse who spent 10 years in South Korea says so! Definitely going back. It's also in the same shopping center as a few other restaurants. Free parking. This spot is the full deal.

This place has a really good atmosphere. The food is really good and the selection is great. Would recommend. I also appreciated the Jin life size cardboard cut out.

My first time dining with this restaurant. So, I asked the young lady serving the food, to help me build my bowl. She was very helpful and the meal is delicious. Service was quick and speedy. I will return again.

As soon as I discovered this place it was added to our regular rotation. Food tastes fresh and super tasty. Prices are very reasonable and qualities are more than adequate. My favorite has been pulled pork with their spicy sauce on top of noodles (your choice of vegetables).

Itaewon is so good-- essentially chipotle for Korean BBQ, but actually good. They also always are having great deals. I just stopped in on a random day, and they had buy one get one bowls. Other nights they give discounts to Duke students, ladies night, etc. This place is great for a quick and delicious meal!

Great place to get a quick bite and that doesn't necessarily mean small as they have 3 different sizes. The food was all very tasty but the wow factor is on the staff. The service was absolutely outstanding by every single staff member there. They all knew the answers to our menu question, big smiles, and looked like they enjoyed being there which is usually what most non-full service places lack.

I personally love Itaewon Grill. Every time I’ve been there I keep getting more impressed. Their food tastes great and the owner and employees are so nice! The restaurant is super clean and casual too.

Food is great, and getting to choose what I want in my bowl is perfect. KBBQ is really tasty!

Went there for the first time last night and I haven't stopped thinking about it. Had the Cupdak Bowl and it was the most delicious, most filling meal that I've had in weeks. Perfectly fried chicken with incredible seasoning. Great garlic sauce that mixed with the cheese and rice into savory perfection. You gotta go. It's unreal. The only thing keeping me from going every other day for the foreseeable future is the 30 minute drive from home.

A Korean version of Chipotle, so much tastier and less chance of food poisoning. Friendly service and reasonable prices as well!

Would recommend, place looks nice and I’m assuming the gentlemen I talked to was the owner and he was very friendly and energetic. Pretty roomy and a decent vibe. Was slow when we visited but the weather hasn’t been very great. Multiple options in this location but if you want a decent sized bowl to hold you over this is the place. For me it wouldn’t be a dinner meal but I’d eat it always for lunch! Give it a try!

Not sure what's better - the food or the customer service! I've been here twice now and can't recommend enough. The first time I visited, the employee behind the counter was super patient and kind as I tried to decide what to order. Today on my second visit, Robert walked me through the menu and even gave me some samples of a couple different proteins! Robert also hooked me up with a free drink as a Duke employee. $7.50 for lunch and a drink (size M bowl) is an absolute steal. The spicy udon noodles are fantastic by the way, the toppings are delicious and all the sauces are dairy free. Definitely check this place out, the line should be out the door every day for this quality and value!

Absolutely love Itaewon. It’s one of my regular places for quick tasty and fresh food. The staff always goes out of their way to make sure your order is right, and they are allergy friendly clearly listing all gluten free and vegetarian items. The staff is incredibly friendly and make the experience even better. Lots of options that are priced great.

Good food and a great value! The bowls here are full of rice, meat and vegetables at very reasonable prices. If you're hungry and trying to be fiscally responsible, you can't go wrong here.

Great Korean. Try their garlic chicken and the one that looks like Mongolian. I always pick the noodles, edamame, cheese, sometimes spinach, and ask for a suggestion on the sauces. They're all great.

First time eating here... Our company sprang for take out lunch during Covid. I was a bit skeptical at first but it turns out, it was good. The chicken was flavorful and the meal was filling.
