Mapojeong 602 Studewood Street, Houston, TX 77007

"Newly renovated. The place is clean and chic. They have a nice huge bar and chill music making this place a lovely place to hang out not just for the delicious food but also the atmosphere. Service was excellent and I would highly recommend their special menu that comes with free flow of salad, banchan and rice. Tte meat is cooked for you so you don’t end up stinking like you do at the regular Korean BBQ places. There are still a few tables with the traditional BBQ stove if you prefer that option but do make reservations for those tables as they are limited. There’s complimentary valet parking so don’t have to worry about finding a parking spot. Beef brisket was excellent and their beast"

"Such a chic place with absolutely delicious food! The decor of the space is modern but cozy, and there are plants everywhere to admire. The staff is kind and helpful, and the owner is so friendly and passionate about his menu (and for good reason). The beast fries are flavorful without being greasy, and the mac and corn is wonderfully cheesy. The real star of the show, in my opinion, is the mapo short rib. It has spectacular flavor combinations and nearly melts in your mouth with how tender it is. As a person who doesn't eat red meat often, that is high praise! The dining area and restrooms are wheelchair friendly. The only downside is there are no ADA signs near the restroom. I am not giving a lower score yet due to a lack of proper signage, as the owner assured me they will be installed soon."

"This is a family owned Korean restaurant worth spending $ on. The owners made us feel very welcomed and kept coming to check on us. Mama N is the sweetest! The food was great, and the quality of the meat was definitely worth paying the $ for. Great experience overall!"

"The unique sauces created are what’s worth trying. Bar is pretty standard. The design is nice inside but we can hear what most tables are talking about even at a normal volume (not as private). The dishes are small and there’s not much of a dietary restriction variety, so look at the menu before going just incase."

"First time here. Came for lunch with coworkers. We just kind of stumbled upon it. Service was a little slow. Nice place but pricey. Though they did have a more reasonable lunch menu. I ordered their tacos. They were well prepared and tasted good and came with a rice side dish that was also very yummy. The waitress was nice. This strikes me as a nice business lunch location or maybe date night. They have some sort of cook at your table function. Neat decor...nice ambiance."
