Rice Bowl Korean Restaurant — Restaurant in New Albany

Okay I’m going to be honest. I’ve always passed this place and they never look like they have customers so I just never gave it another thought. Well, tonight was different. My sister and I decided to try some “authentic” ramen. When we pulled up the building looks vacant but we headed in and we’re greeted by a really nice girl. Me and my sister already decided what we wanted. I got the tan tan ramen with a side of fried dumplings. My sister got the spicy miso ramen. The service was quick and friendly and that was why it got 3 stars. But the food was another story. The ramen was in a huge portion and hot which is great. But realizing our ramen looks exactly the same. The only difference in taste is the spiciness of hers. Maybe we’re not used to the flavor but it was kind of bland. Just reminded me of chicken broth. The pork belly was tough and the eggs were also boiled so much it didn’t taste that good. The dumplings were something I could buy out of a frozen aisle. The food is average. But after me and my sister ate some we did not feel very good. It seems like they use a lot of oil. The food is average that’s all I can say. Would not come back but...

Been here once with one other person (my sister). It was pretty dead there when we went on the weekend. We both ordered a different meal and got a bolgogi to share. I got some sort of pork noodle bowl, and she got a Kim bap noodle bowl of sorts. Mine was lacking the flavors I expected, but she said hers was amazingly good. The bolgogi was a huge let down for me. Even my sister said it was missing a flavor. We lived in Korea as kids and it wasn't a traditional bolgogi flavor at all. It just tasted like stir fried beef. Service was fast. The woman serving us didn't appear to know English very well, but the daughter who cashed us out spoke like she was raise in the States. I would still eat here again because the menu has a ton of options and pictures. I love picture menus, so that was a plus for someone unfamiliar with the cuisines. I feel it's worth another try. It was clean, the bathrooms were clean and well stocked. My visit wasn't unpleasant at all, and the portions were huge, so I didn't...

Came here over the weekend and ordered the miso ramen. As I was eating my meal and I found a fly in my food. There were other tables surrounding me and the place was extremely quite, so I pulled my server over very quietly and showed her. She replied and told me it had just flown in my food. Which even if the case it isn't okay. I paid for the food they told me to even though I didn't eat any of it. I informed the manager it did seem appropriate and she told me bugs are natural there wasn't bugs in the rest of my food and if I had a problem with it I needed to contact the owner. My mother called and spoke to them where they argued with her and also told her that bugs are a natural part of a life. They eventually agreed to refund me my money and when I went in to get it they told me that I should be paying them for the time they had to spend listening to my mother on the phone and also stated that they were to busy to be...
