Bop & Gogi

"This review makes me sad, and I hope it doesn't anger the owners but rather inspires them. Korean food is a passionate love for me and my family (having Korean heritage and growing up in Korea). So it was a wonderful godsend to have a Korean restaurant relatively close and one that seemed to enjoy making good Korean food. However, over the past year, the quality has suffered. Perhaps it is becoming more popular, and I am familiar with the fact that expenses have gone up. But there is no doubt that the quality has gone down. The kimchi stew, such a flavorful and basic stew for any Korean, is overly sour and salty. The kimbap, again a staple for any Korean place, is lacking in fresh flavor, letting the seaweed overwhelm the ingredients within. The bimbimbap, a wonderful dish that I was so excited to share with my family, has become very bland. Considering the cost of Korean food here in Denver, to receive this meal was disappointing. I want to support this restaurant more; I truly do. I think I will give it one more chance at a random point in the future. If it disappoints again, I will strongly suggest other Korean restaurants over Bap and Gogi. To the owners and cooks at Bap and Gogi: I am not angry. Just sad and disappointed. Please improve the quality and raise the standards. Your place deserves it, and your patrons deserve it. Thank you."

"This place wasn’t what I was expecting, the moment we walked in 2 workers a guy and older women working behind the counter just staring at us as we entered. No greeting or smile just looking at us like we shouldn’t have walked in there. They actually didn’t say one word the whole time we were there. When asked for a high chair for our daughter the boy pointed to where they were. You order on a kiosk and they call out your order number when the food is ready. The food was mid at best I got the ramen and all I could taste was ginger. 0 stars for customer service and 2 stars for food. The hot stone was the best part it was delicious but overall I won’t be back, I would like to eat dinner with my family where I feel welcomed and where the employees are friendly. This just wasn’t it!"

"This little gem hiding at the corner of a bunch of small eateries is a great discovery. You may not be impressed when you opened the door. There’s no one to greet you on your arrival. Instead you approach the kiosk and made your food selection and you seated yourself. That said the foods that they serve were all about flavours, and they deliver good foods on budget. So this isn’t where you want to bring your date but it’s a great place to order and bring home to eat. If you must there are about 20 seats available for you to dine in. Everything is self service however. It would be more appropriately named Bop & Gogi Kitchen’s"

"Delicious bulgogi plate. Just add a fried egg and it turns to bibimbap. Side dishes were awesome but what I love most about this place is the kimchi! I wasn’t sure if it was good coz the color was too dark but when I tried it when I got back to the hotel, gosh it was really good! I just wish I could’ve taken a huge jar home."
