When comparing this place to the previous Hodori of days past it has gone down hill considerably. I have seen it's ups and downs but with changing of hands as if it were currency this place has been through a lot. The current owner who ever it maybe is doing it a little better than the others but that's not a far reach from them.
This like a few other Korean places in town specializes in Tofu stew. The stew here when it first opened many many years ago was very good. This restaurant if you think about it changed the way many Korean restaurants are done here now. The way the food is, the look and I have to say the onset of the tofu epidemic to AZ.
The stews are good right now with lots of flavor and and great portions of meat in them if you get the pork or beef. The stir fry pork bellys with spicy kimchee is my favorite and the spicy octopus stir fry is good as well.
There aren't a lot of Korean restaurants here in the valley but I have to say when Hodori is on point they are good. As far as service goes, it is a hit or miss. But what place isn't like that. I have had days where at Denny's I have spectacular service but poor service here. I just don't expect anything more from Arizona Korean restaurants since it's not like LA.
