PICK & MIX | West Hartford — Restaurant in West Hartford

I absolutely love this place! There aren’t many locations unfortunately, but the 20 minute drive is worth it. You start by choosing your base- white rice, brown rice, or sweet potato noodles (no sweet potato taste. Just clear glass noodles). Then you choose from the variety of vegetables. Next is your protein which is chicken, spicy chicken, or beef. Then they go in the back and prepare it. It takes about 5-10 minutes at most. The rice, noodles, and meats are already cooked so it doesn’t take long at all. Finally they bring it out and you pick your sauce that they drizzle on top. My favorite is the soy lemon and teriyaki duo. A hot sauce is also an option. The bowl is not soaked in sauce for those of you sauce lovers. The amount they give you is enough to flavor and soak into the food. You can always ask for more sauce which is what I did this time. A bowl comes with this nice light miso soup which I drink right out of the container. Their lunch special comes with a drink till 3:00.

One bowl is enough for normal people. I, on the other hand always order two bowls because it is so delicious. I get one sweet potato noodle bowl and one brown rice bowl. For vegetables I get broccoli, zucchini, carrots, onions, and mushrooms. Then the soy lemon and teriyaki sauces. They have a new item on the menu which are these new Korean meat dumplings. They are so delicious! They have Korean leeks, carrots, sweet potato noodles, and egg. I hope they keep them on the menu!

If you’re a lover of stir fry then this is your place. The downside is that it gets busy there. I’ve been to the Avon location which to be honest tastes different and doesn’t give you as much food. The West Hartford location...

I've had this place bookmarked for a while because I love Korean cuisine. My family and I decided to get dinner there late Saturday afternoon. Parking was plentiful. The restaurant is a fast casual environment with some tables. The two people working the counter was super nice.

We ordered two corn dogs for my toddler and as an appetizer. We had the cheesy potato and the cheesy meat. Those were good, hot, and crunchy. We also had a cup of miso soup ($2.50) and very small side of kimchi; the amount of kimchi given was not worth the $2.50. We got the Korean bulgogi which is thin sliced BBQ beef with teriyaki sauce, onion, and carrots.

Unfortunately, the flavor of the bulgogi was lacking in that dish, it was very bland and I didn't enjoy it. Eventually, I plan to go back to try out the bibimbap, spicy pork, and Korean fried chicken. The pictures online for those items, look pretty delicious. But for now, I don't recommend the beef bulgogi, unless they change up the recipe. Another downfall, they didn't have restrooms for us to use, we had to go next door to Dunkin. The place seemed pretty popular for...

I was disappointed. It was my first time ordering from here, and I placed an online order. I paid extra for extra meat and veggies. There were hardly any veggies, and the meat didn't seem to be doubled. It was mostly rice. My husband's was the same, but just japchae instead of rice, and he only doubled the meat. The amount of meat and veggies wasn't enough for 14 & 15 dollars ( they even felt very light when I picked up the bag). I had a feeling I was going to be disappointed, AND I WAS!!! The hot Korean sauce tasted more like barbecue sauce... not great, and I could barely taste the sesame oil... it was on the dry side. I took the time to write this review because I was very hungry, love korean food (ordered it from Zaam many times, and even make japchae myself), but was very disappointed I hope the owners read this and make changes. We need a good Korean restaurant in our area and there aren't many choices. I would not go back here everrrrrr! I'd have to know...
