A Tasty Encounter with Korean Fare
If you find yourself driving along University Drive in Auburn Hills, and your taste buds are craving a touch of Korean cuisine, you might stumble upon the relatively new 'Kimchi Box.' Here's the scoop on my recent visit:
Location and Ambiance: Tucked away in Auburn Hills, Kimchi Box boasts a clear and cozy interior. The minimalist décor creates a comfortable atmosphere, perfect for a quick meal.
Service: The staff at Kimchi Box were friendly and welcoming. They made the dining experience pleasant from the moment I walked in.
Quick To-Go Orders: If you're in a hurry, Kimchi Box won't leave you waiting. I placed an order for two boxes to go, and within around 10 minutes, my meal was ready.
The Taste Test: Now, let's get to the heart of it - the food. While the Bulgogi Box was a good experience with its rich flavors, but the beef wasn't tender. The Spicy Pork was not a highlight, short on spices and the meat was also far from perfect.

If we didn’t have this scrubber thing in our food, it would’ve been a perfect lunch. Whether it’s a mistake, they must pay attention to their hygiene. Please be careful...
Read moreI really enjoyed my chicken sandwich with fries which comes packaged in a cute box for togo orders. The sandwich had good flavor with some spice, loaded with kimchi and vegetables. This seems like good value for the money. The fries were ordered as seasoned fries but did not have any spice from what I could tell. They also could have used a dipping sauce. I was disappointed that I placed a togo order and was not given sauce. The size of the fries is good, thick ones, not dinky shoe string. Also a good amount of food, large sandwich and amount of fries. If you decide to dine in, the dining area has plenty of seats and was clean. If you have left overs you can pick up a container by the condiment station...
