We were craving for Korean Kimchi soup and bbq. I found Bon Tofu as one of those with good ratings and closest to where we were at. The food was okay; I have tried couple of Korean places around Orange County and I can say there Seafood tofu soup is not too bad but not the best. Their beef short ribs was good as well. However, I liked their chicken better.
The issue for us at that time was the service. There was only one lady taking the orders and at the same time serving them. It was not a good idea coming with a hungry stomach. We had to wait for them to complete orders of one group in the other table before they can take our order.
Please improve your service, and plus the side dish was served at a later time. They might be short staffed on that day but over all, the food was not so bad. I give it 6/10.

So bomb!!! The food is so delicious and you don’t even have to drive to Garden Grove for it. They do get busy though so you might have to wait. I think it’s a great place with good portions and reasonable pricing. I’d love to eat here everyday.

Delicious authentic bibimbap and tofu soup! 🤤
Everything we and our friends ordered were delicious! Here’s what we ordered:
Soon tofu and hot stone bibimbap (Menu No. 11) - it was enough for two of us and an appetizer Japchae (Menu No. 26). Highly recommend those if you are a couple that want to share. The combo quantity is half of the main dish but almost 2/3 quantity. The combo is really worth it if you want to try the best dishes for less money but more food!
Our friends ordered also Korean noodles, short rib pork, and other chicken and beef dishes. They all loved it, and they were so flavorful and delicious.
真好吃!

This place has great food and combos! We always get their tofu soup! My favorite is the beef one. Everything we tried here so far has been good from their tofu soup, galbi, bibimbap bowls, fried chicken, bulgogi! They have great sides that they always come by and refill . The staff here is very nice. Only thing is that sometimes the wait can be long to get a table (waiting for it to be cleaned) or just place an order. We understand it's possible they can get busy. We still love the food and come back! :)

Great food! Would easily be a 5 star location except for the minor hiccup in service.
We arrived more than an hour before closing to a busy waiting area. We put our name down on the wait-list. We waited 30 minutes, then when it was finally our turn to be seated, our hostess told us that they cannot take us since the kitchen was closing down. It was only 8:20pm at this time and their closing time was 9:00pm. I understand that they may need to start cleaning up earlier, however, if that's the case they should have told us this rather than made us wait the entire wait-list and tell us when it was our turn. Either that or put the closing time. For. The store earlier so there would not be issues like this. We appreciate that fact they eventually seated us, but it took an awkward 10 minutes of the staff cleaning the tables staring at each other trying to figure out what to do with us.
