" Kitok stole my heart! I enjoyed the galbi so much and the oriental fries were such a treat. The atmosphere is busy but that’s expected for a place this popular. The staff does a great job keeping things moving despite being crowded. I can’t wait for my next visit to try more of their delicious offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried Kitok on a whim, and it was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Waco! The staff was attentive and friendly. The bulgogi was done just right, and the unique fries exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere was lively, very much a local favorite. Can't wait to come back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place was recommended by friends and it lived up to the hype! The ambience screams cozy and the staff was very warm. I had the galbi and it was superb, very flavorful. The fries were a fantastic twist I didn’t expect. Definitely going back to try more things on the menu. Kitok is a hidden treasure! " (*Curated Review*)

" We took our whole family here, excited for the famous burgers and oriental fries. The portion sizes did not disappoint! The kids loved the fries and we all tried the bulgogi as well. The food quality was solid but the ambiance could be improved; it felt a bit crowded since the space is small. Overall, a nice meal but we might try takeout next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband had the cheeseburger and I had the mixed bulgogi. Both were good but the portions were a bit lacking compared to what we anticipated from previous reviews. The atmosphere is relaxed, but it was quite busy, which made service slower than expected. It'll be nice to see if they can streamline their ordering process. Overall, not bad, maybe just a bit off the mark from expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" An amazing find in Waco—Kitok never disappoints! The food is mouth-watering, and the staff is always friendly. I especially love the oriental fries; they are a must-have with every meal. The only downside is that the place can get crowded but that speaks for its popularity. Well worth the visit! " (*Curated Review*)
