Step Korean Bistro 2855 North McCarran Boulevard, Sparks, NV 89431

"Holy cow. This place is absolutely amazing! I'm so glad we finally have good Korean food in Sparks! Not only was everything super delicious, but they have so many gluten free options!! The staff was so attentive and made sure we were as happy as can be. I even forgot my debit card on the table and the girls chased me down in Raley's next door to give it to me! The restaurant itself has a super chill vibe and is decorated very well! It was our first time going so we ordered 7 different dishes to feel everything out, and we ate almost everything My husband and I will absolutely be going back."

"We have been driving by waiting for STEP to open because I have been waiting for more Korean restaurants to come to Reno/Sparks. So I was very excited to see that they were open! We came around 3pm on a Monday and they had 2 other tables. We were quickly seated and given menus. Our waiter was very kind, but seems new because we did not get drink orders in until we ordered all the food. For the food, we got the following: Korean Fried Chicken (Soy Garlic) - Very crispy! No bones!! The chicken inside was not overcooked. Raw purple cabbage on top that made the plate very aesthetically appealing, but it was not seasoned. Definitely recommend ordering this here! 5/5 Jjambbong Udon - It came in an unexpectedly large bowl, broth is thick and very flavorful with seafood flavors including actual octopus, mussels, shrimp, scallops. It's on the spicy side even as someone that enjoys spicy food. The udon was soft but not too soft (one of the best cooked udon that I have had). This also had raw purple cabbage on top to balance the colors of the gochuchang redness, but this a perfect combination to the broth since it is not seasoned. 5/5 Spicy Pork- The pork was good, but not crispy enough on the outside. Stir fried with onions, carrots, and green onions. Also on the spicier side. Comes with a bowl of white rice. 4.5/5 Complimentary Side dishes - Kimchi, Radish, and Kale. Kimchi is okay, but more sour than I like and not very spicy. Not usually a fan of radish, but this was delicious! It was nice and crunchy with a hint of sweetness. The kale was basically a salad and mixed in a sweet and spicy dressing. The kale looked and taste very fresh too! Kimchi 3/5, Radish 5/5, Kale 5/5 Since they opened just recently on the 16th of February, they did not have a few things on the menu because I wanted to get the Soft Tofu Soup, but not available at this time. I love the feel of the restaurant as well! I love how open it feels along with the modern and aesthetic look they are going for. There is a wall of shelves of Soju, 2 TVs, and greenery throughout the space. The server checked on us throughout and the wait for the food to come out was about 10-15 minutes. I could not finish the udon so l had to take it to-go and our server quickly got a container and bag. The bill was reasonable for everything we ordered and I would definitely come back and bring friends with us next time! I am so glad to see more Asian restaurants in Sparks!"

"Delicious food, amazing service and an incredibly adorable dining area. We had spicy seafood udon soup and Beef Japchae. Both were amazing with large portions. I can’t wait to go back!"

"My family already went there twice in two weeks. The food is great and the people are super nice there. My husband lived in Korea for 9 years and loves Korean chicken. He really enjoyed his chicken(I didn't take photos yesterday, but he ordered all three different kinds of chicken at once and all of them were so good! I had the cold leftover chicken with rice this morning and it was still delicious!) Every dish we ordered was very good."

"Step Korean Bistro exceeded my expectations. The diverse menu offered a delightful array of savory dishes that truly showcased the richness of Korean flavors. The welcoming ambiance added to the overall experience, making it a perfect spot for cultural immersion through food. From the first bite to the last, every dish was a testament to the dedication and authenticity of the culinary team. I highly recommend Step Korean Bistro to anyone in search of an unforgettable Korean dining experience."
