| - OVERALL: this is the definition of Korean fusion done right. Great tasting bulgogi and rice, with authentic kimchi and a healthy salad on the side. Cute environment and super friendly service. A bit expensive for the portion size, though - $13 for bulgogi.
I was excited to come here due to the reviewers on Yelp loving Bae Bae's. I came right as it opened at 11:30am, and was surprised at how green and lovely the ambience was. There were so many plants in the restaurant, creating a calm and serene natural atmosphere. It was also very colorful and aesthetically-pleasing.
The food itself was great. The bulgogi was marinated perfectly, albeit a tad too sweet for me. It had a distinct Korean flavor, which made me extremely happy, because I'm usually not a fan of fusion food. The kimchi was also well-made and fresh, and the rice was good too - sticky and warm. I usually dislike salads, but was able to finish all of my salad at Bae Bae's. It complemented the flavor of the bulgogi very well, and the crisp, fresh vegetables was a great contrast to the heavy, flavorful meat. The meal left me 110% full, yet refreshed at the same time.
I will definitely come back here again! As I said before, it's kind of expensive for the portion size, but it's an amazing option for healthy Korean fusion food that manages to keep its authentic flavor as well.
