BCD Tofu House - Korean restaurant in Irvine - 2700 Alton Pkwy #135, USA

A great spot for Korean food in this area. Their popularity is no question with aromatic soups that are perfect topped on rice. Their variety of banchan also does not disappoint with fish cakes, kimchi, and sometimes potato salad. My only comment is that the wait is often long, so I wouldn’t reccomend if you’re in a rush. Otherwise, the overall food and service here is great.

Be prepared to wait; this place stays busy but the food is worth it. The setting casual as they try to take care of all the guests. It’s not fancy but you’re going for the food with this one. The selection is pretty wide. The recommendation is the galbi so I gave it a try. Very good. We also got the fried garlic tofu but had so much food we had to take some to go. My daughter had the spicy pork soon tofu, which she loved. My wife had the galbi combo with the kimchi and pork soon tofu.

Nice tofu soup and short Rib. The wait line of this place is always long. Suggest to come a bit earlier. Need to come back next time for the seafood pancake.

I happened to walk by and got attracted by this restaurant then I changed my original plan and decided to give this place a try. It was a real surprise to me because from their appetizers to entrees, it’s so on point! The smash potato opened my eyes because I never know it could be made this tasty with apple and raisins inside. Not to mention the short ribs and tofu soup, portion is decent as well. The service is nice too, the lady came to me and asked if I need more appetizers. Very great experience, if I have a chance will definitely come again.

This place is great but you need to wait for 30-60mins to be seated. The food is awesome! And beware, they come in large servings, including the soup. Two "regular-size" persons can share, and while waiting for your order, you are given "bottomless" servings of appetizers. This explains why you pay a bit higher. However, you don't regret coming to eat here. I still want to come back in my next Irvine visit. Highly recommended.👌

I was hungry for koean short ribs, so I thought of Bcd tofu restaurant, and they are opened until around 2-3am. The food was great, but I think their portion got smaller, but I still enjoyed it.

Great bancan. Intestines tofu was super good. So was the galbi. It gets very busy. So get there and out yourself on the waitlist machine.

It's been a long time since I came to Irvine to eat. It's a pleasure to go shopping and eat with my sisters. Good service, soup a bit salty. Everything else is OK
