" I visited Burning Rice for the first time last week, and I must say, I was impressed. The kiosk ordering system was a bit confusing at first, but I eventually got the hang of it. I ordered the bulgogi with brown rice and added plenty of vegetables. The flavors were fantastic! However, my friend had a different experience; they felt the service was a bit cold and unwelcoming. Overall, I’d still recommend giving it a try for the food alone. Just be prepared for a bit of a learning curve in ordering. " (*Curated Review*)

" I really wanted to love this place, but I walked away feeling disappointed. The food just didn't have the authentic flair I expected. It felt overly simplified, sort of lacking depth. Their combo meals used to be fantastic, but with the new menu, they feel watered down. Additionally, the service left a lot to be desired. I felt hurried and unwelcomed. I don’t think I’ll come back until I hear they’ve restored some old favorites. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is fantastic! Not only do they offer big portion sizes, but their flavors are unmatched. I love creating my own bowl; the kimchi adds a nice kick! Last week I went with my family, and everyone left satisfied. The atmosphere is very inviting too—a perfect blend of comfort and style. I highly recommend trying the BBQ chicken; it's juicy and tender. I’ll definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The restaurant was buzzing with people when I arrived, a good sign! I ordered the BBQ chicken and opted for extra veggies in my bowl. Everything tasted fresh, but I did wish for a bit more flavor overall—the kimchi was quite mild compared to what I'm used to. Nice, clean place to grab a bite, and the portions were decent. I would likely try other menu items next time, as I enjoyed the atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can’t say enough good things about Burning Rice! The ability to customize your bowl is a game changer, and each ingredient tastes fresh and authentic. My usual order includes tofu with all the veggies and an egg, and it never disappoints. The restaurant itself is clean and the laid-back vibe makes it a great spot to relax. Even during busy hours, my food comes out quickly, and I love that I can enjoy a flavorful meal without breaking the bank. Highly suggest it to anyone looking for a quick and satisfying meal!

" I was very disappointed with my visit to Burning Rice. The food was not what I expected, and there wasn't a lot of flavor in my bibimbap compared to other Korean restaurants I've tried. It felt watered down. Additionally, I felt rushed while ordering, and the staff didn’t seem to want to help with questions. I’m not sure if I'll return unless I hear improvements have been made. " (*Curated Review*)

" First off, I usually don’t enjoy Korean food. However, this place might have converted me! I created my own spicy chicken rice bowl, keeping it simple with just a few toppings. The flavors blended well, and the hot stone bowl gave it a nice cooking effect. To my surprise, the food was actually very tasty! The atmosphere was energetic, making it a good spot to try.
