Everyone from friends to my grandmother loves the food here. While the bowls are great, I definitely recommend getting a variety of tacos so you can try everything! Our favorites are the fish taco, grilled chicken taco, and then for the bowl the Korean fried chicken! The reality though is you can’t go wrong with any option. Service is also super quick and the servers are really nice. Good options for beverages too (and I love the chocolate chip cookies also).

Food has interesting flavors, but if you're wanting the sweet sticky korean fried chicken, skip that and get the pork belly. The spicy fried chicken tastes like southern fried chicken, good if that's what you're expecting. Also not sure why i expected the cabbage to be kimchi, but I did. Maybe I expected Mexican Korean and what it is more is american-korean. The bowl is large, easily 2 meals for me and the Jamaica cider was amazing.

This one had been on our list for a while, and we finally got to order it. No disappointment at all! The burritos are big and stuffed, highly recommend Belly Burrito (marinated steak and Korean kimchi.) We also really like Korean Cali Fries that comes with egg, kimchi, meat, and more. It’s a bit pricy, but worth a try.

I found Belly by accident while I was on my way to the New Parish. I boy and I glad that I did! Their food was a much needed change in my stable of eateries. The shrimp and avocado burrito is sooooo good!! And they make them thicc!! I’m a big guy and most burritos don’t faze me, but 2/3 into the burrito I was asking myself if it was a good idea to finish it. I did and then I had to go sit on the couch for a half hour and catch up on emails. Their tater tots are excellent and the pork belly burrito is also very tasty option. The staff is friendly and the restaurant is clean.

I got the belly bowl, add avocado, and it was amazing! The steak was perfectly cooked and the kimchi sauce was the perfect topping. The rice and lettuce complemented it well. It could have been nice with a little acidity but otherwise, a great dish! The shoe string fries were also super good. Overall, a great spot! The tacos looked amazing too.

Fast, friendly service. Food came out quick. A bit pricy but totally worth it! I had three tacos: steak & eggs, fish, and shrimp. All three were mind-blowingly delicious. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Super busy small restaurant. You order before you sit down, but once you order the food is brought to your table within 5 minutes. For the amount of customers, I really dunno how they do it?! We got the fries and tacos, and everything tasted very fresh and delicious! I would love to go back and try their burgers next time. All in all, great service and delicious food. I really can't ask for more.

First time eating here.definitely won't be the last. We ordered the fries to share, a burger and a burrito for my girlfriend. We ended up walking away with half of it because it was so much food.
