Hom Korean Kitchen - Santa Cruz

This restaurant is perfect for a fast and satisfying meal. The tofu rice bowl with vegan kimchi, carrots, and bean sprouts was amazing. I will definitely be coming back here. It's like a high-quality, fresh version of Chipotle, but for Korean bowls.

Great place to get fast Korean soul food. Generous portion sizes. Got the firecracker pork which was delicious

A little less than mediocre. Service style was like a chipotle they build the Korean bowl while moving your food down the line. We had lunch for 4. Observations: Rice was undercooked, rather inedible. Beef was cold and over seasoned. Which made it less tasty, but also a food safety issue. Firecracker pork good, not great. Spicy tofu fine Korean vegetables were OK. Overall, had that vibe of a restaurant that started strong, grew too fast, and is now managed (badly) by teenagers and young adults who lack attention to detail no one paying attention to quality. Too bad as a concept, its a very good one. Price is pretty cheap $12 for the tofu bowl, $14 for the beef bowl. But disappointing. Would rather pay more for something wonderful, or pay less and go to fast food and get consistently quality.

Paul the manager HOOKED IT UP. He was so nice, gave us a student discount, and gave us extra rewards. He was very nice and made great conversation. The food was great and fresh. Thanks :

Paul Is A+, great host and accommodated my party while remaining professional and friendly. We had a good time here and chatting with Paul. Will be back.
