You are mistaken if you think no one would want to eat steaming pots of soft tofu soups on a hot summer day like today. But that’s just how beloved the BCD Tofu House chain is. It commands a waitlist regardless of the temperature outside. Why? Well, for the $14.99 you pay for your tofu soup, you also get an array of side dishes that are refilled by ladies in roving carts as often as you want. So in effect, this is the cheapest all-you-can-eat restaurant in existence. But unlike a buffet, you can ask for to-go boxes for anything you can’t finish. That fact and also because the servers are attentive, friendly, and voluntarily perform tasks you wouldn’t usually expect servers would do (like handling superheated stone pots and scooping out rice tableside), BCD would probably compel an Eskimo to buy snow cones from them if they sold it. #foodgasm #foodporn #instafood #foodphotography #foodblogger #koreanfood #orangecounty #edwingoei #gardengrove #koreatowm #sundubu #softtofu #banchan

This review might be bias since this place is so nostalgic for me. I’ve lived in OC most of my life but up until my second year of college was I introduced to Korean food. At the time I was a Front Desk Agent at a hotel. I typically didn’t get off work until 11-11:30pm and not much was open that late. My friend suggested BCD. From the first sip of the tofu soup I was addicted. It became our after work spot. Then I introduced my friends to it and it became our after church spot. Funny thing is my brother now works in the food industry so he too gets off work late. And on those late nights when he and his colleagues just want to sit down and enjoy some comfort food, they also make their way to BCD. It’s been years since I’ve been back. I recently visited again and it was just as good as I remember. The food was delicious. The service was quick and courteous. Can’t believe I waited so long to come back. Now that the seal has been broken I’m sure I’ll be back again soon.

After a long back and forth, and waiting at nearby places with long lines - I was so glad to find this place, which I think delivered way better value, service and environment than its competitors. This place had REAL AC turned on, the popular places down the street did not. Luckily I stopped by before it got busier after 5 pm. The banchan was pretty good, today there was some yummy japchae, my favorite. Kalbi didn’t disappoint, a good portion and the haemul pajeon at $16 is a very good value too. Experience was great, food was made super quick, barely 5-10 minutes. Very friendly and professional staff, did not get intrusive “where are you from” questions or judgmental looks when I spoke English, which I often get in Korean spots. Only disappointment is they don’t have naengmyeon, which other BCD locations usually have, at least on the east coast.. just a suggestion for the summer ;)

Best tofu soft in my neighborhood, beautiful and neat packing for take out BCD TOFU HOUSE keep it up! Update TOTAL DISASTER! Today Christmas, BCDTOFU I called for pick up order, they said 30 minutes when I arrived in the restaurant I saw my number on that bag in the pick up section tabe and I ask the lady if it's mine because it's my number written in the bag she never even look the number and they give it to another customer, I wait another 30 minutes until I talk to the guy and He said they gonna rush cooking on it, I told them never mind just give my money back. #BCDTOFU GardenGrove I've been your customer for quiet sometime, If you cannot handle the order for pick up because you are busy please don't accept it. You dissapointed me. Before I give you 5 star if Google allowed to post this reviews without star then I'll do.

Extremely disappointed, their service and food have really been neglected. Have been coming here almost every 2-3 months. Noticed that their service and quality have been slipping. Banchan is flavorless, dolsot bibimbap was horrible (lack of flavor ingredients and their red pepper sauce was lacking the basic sweet flavor), deep fried garlic tofu is supposed to have a sweet spicy sauce bit that too was lacking flavor. All of this coupled with poor neglected hospitality makes the experience at BCD for a party of 7 subpar. This is very likely the last time we will be coming here, there are many other tofu houses in the area and for their price and lack of quality it's better to bring businessn to where it is earned. Bad food, bad service, overall wouldnt recommend coming here.

BCD is always my go to place when I want to eat out! It has unlimited sides and amazing Bulgogi with spicy tofu soup. The portions are amazing and I always am able to share with another person and walk out feeling stuffed. The staff there is also super friendly and they have great customer service!! The ladies working always greet you and help you in every way (refills, serving rice even tho they don’t have to, and teaching you how to eat the food). I eat there at every occasion and have always had a pleasant experience. Connie is the best 😍!! She gave us a mountain of japchae bc she knew we liked it so much. In summary, EAT HERE CUZ ITLL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. Everyone that I’ve recommended to eat here has loved it and have become regulars :)
