Food is delicious. The seafood tofu soup was wonderful, accompanied by a stone bowl rice. They scooped out the rice, and they soaked the crusted rice with tea for you to enjoy later. The beef short ribs were tasty too.

Came here for lunch and ordered the Kimchi Stew and stone bibimbap. The Kimchi Stew came with a stone pot with rice. They poured tea to the scorched rice, making porridge. Delicious food and good portion.

As a longtime customer, this is my first time leaving a review, but DooBoo truly deserves the praise. It has been our go-to spot whenever we’re craving authentic Korean cuisine, and it has never let us down. The service is consistently attentive, and the food is always excellent. We keep coming back for the perfect combination of quality and fair prices, and every visit is a great experience. The staff and owner genuinely care about providing outstanding service, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back for more!

I had dinner with my family last night. We ordered seafood pancake and bibimbap. I was astonished by the size of seafood pancake which was smaller in diameter (Was it because we had only 2 people?) It was terribly thin AND MOST OF ALL, there were barely any ingredients but only green onion and few bits of squid. It was the poorest dish among the dishes I ordered in the past. Did we eat mainly cooked flour? The bibimbap, guess we were eating vegan bibimbap with few bits of beef. I was very disappointed due to my craving of Korean cuisine but the restaurant was not UP TO PAR. There are so many authentic Korean restaurants in South Burnaby but I picked the WRONG ONE AND WOULD NEVER GO AGAIN!!

We had dinner at a tiny restaurant, DooBoo, one of my favourite Korean restaurants. We had Tofu soup. Tofu is very soft. In addition, they serve amazing stone pot white rice.

Love coming here for bibimbap (Korean Stone Pot Rice) I don’t eat spicy. So instead of adding chilies sauce. They also have a beef sauce (I think) to add into the rice. Juicy and so yummy!! The stone pot cooked the rice crispy at the bottom at just the right amount.

Very appreciate the fact that they have free parking! Most places around don't have parking so it was a relief that they had one. I ordered a pork tofu stew. It came with three side dishes -- kimchi, onion?, and fish cake. They were ok, it felt grocery store quality. The stew itself was nice. I enjoyed the taste of the soup a lot but the pork itself was a little dry and tough. Overall, it was a good experience and I would come again!

RECOMMENDED. My wife got Soft Tofu Soup and I got the Hot Pot Rice w/ Mayo. This is our first time here and we've enjoyed the patience, hospitality, and their food. My wife and I are not familiar with the Korean cuisine having mostly spent our time in KBBQ restaurants. Their staff were incredibly kind and informative. It was great. Exactly what we needed. Thanks for a great meal! We will definitely come again 😁

I occasionally visit your place and have ordered delivery a couple of times. Why do you guys never read the notes? Among many Korean cafes, your food is very spicy and I love spicy food but this is just too much! I always ask for it to be less spicy, but you never follow the request.

I know Dooboo is know for its tofu stews but it was my second time ordering the kimchi fried rice and I have to say it tastes even better this time around. The flavour and mild spiciness tickled my tongue in such a way that I couldn t help but down the fried rice in under 10 minutes. I just couldn t stop eating. I was more than half way done when I remembered to take a photo because the smell was so intoxicating that I just had to eat.

Favourite place to get soft tofu soup! Portions are big and affordable. Their soft tofu soup comes with stone pot rice, which is also so good. Weve come here many times and tried many of their items and they all were amazing. Also appreciated how they have the white version of the soft tofu soup for people who dont eat spicy. Service was quick and friendly and everything tasted very fresh. 100% would recommend the soft tofu soup, hot pot rice with fish roe, and Korean bean paste soup! Parking: Small parking lot in the front of the restaurant.

Great food and excellent customer service. I love their vegetable pancake with cheese. It s a must try! We ordered the vegetable pancake with cheese, spicy chicken aka dakgalbi, beef japachae and Bibimbap. I can t believe I haven t frequent this place. Everything tasted delicious and big portions. It gets busy. Was here from 6:15-745 and the place is packed and lots of take out orders. Ample parking space on the side street.

Great Korean tofu soup restaurant. Its good in person as well as delivery. Their pajeaon is also good. Parking: We walked to the restaurant so didnt actually use the parking lot, but the restaurant has a couple of parking spaces in the front that it shares with other businesses in the building. Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs available. My two year old loved sitting by the window to watch the different cars go by on Kingsway.

Cozy authentic Korean restaurant. I ordered Tofu soup with beef and they gave us a stone rice bowl. The taste was amazing. Their parking lot is small, but you can park a car at Arcola Street.

April 21, 2024

Food was good, but they overcharged us. They added a 15% on top of what we ordered. We weren t aware, so we tipped an additional 15%. I would understand if it was large group to have a tip included but It was just the two of us. And the older lady with brown/orange hair charged us the amount without informing us and didn t give us the receipt/bill. Felt shady and scammed

Food is delicious. Love their tofu soup, and their sweet and spicy fried chicken the most. Their side dishes can be improved though. The kimchi has no flavor and too spicy. The water/tea also doesnt get refilled unless asked. My favourite Korean restaurant so far, though.

The place was full on non peak hours. We were asked to wait outside after writing our phone number on the board. It took about 15 minutes to get a table and we ordered right away for Kimchi stew and soft tofu soup. Both were above average in taste and portion size. And being Korean, I know how tofu and kimchi are supposed to taste, and they didnt disappoint. We were little skeptical before going in but we are now convinced we will come back here. Edit: We returned to try their LA short ribs and it was spot on. It was better and more served than other restaurant which we recently visited. Parking: Kind of hard to get in and out of parking.

★★★★
December 21, 2023

The food here is amazing, and I had a great experience for my first time having Korean food. There were a lot of dishes (yummy) but not a lot of space, plus small tables made it a little awkward. Overall I really enjoyed the whole experience, but I had to give it 1 less because of the cramped spacing. Parking: There is not a lot of parking! We ended up having to park in the residential area. Kid-friendliness: Lots of tiny dishes and platters-they were all really yummy but being a clumsy person I actually had a little panic attack (not visibly) and had to kind of calm down and move things around before actually starting to eat. Wheelchair accessibility: Small space! A little hare to maneuver around.

Comfort home cooked style Korean place in south Burnaby. Attentive service and feels family run and inviting. They have delicious cold noodles, tofu hot pot and other delicious staples like japchae. Recently we had the KFC in honey garlic flavour and it was a bit toooo much garlic. A bit overpowering. And the chicken was a bit undercooked. And our bulgogi beef was over cooked so that it felt on the jerky side texture. All in all I would still come back but maybe not for the kfc to be safe.

Had a coupon ($1 weekend promotion) to use for delivery with Door dash so pre-ordered for a later delivery. Order was approved by the restaurant. Later they canceled my order. Well they cancelled my order and I lost my coupon. Why approve my order if youll cancel it. You know exactly how much of your dish you can/will make for the day. Of course when I call, no one picks up.

Really fast service and staff were really friendly! They do need to be more careful tho because they crashed this cleaning cart that had a lot of water right by our table. Thankfully it didn t actually hit me but it was really close and scary. For food we got their seafood pancake and hot pot rice with fish roe. Both were really good but the rice was much more flavourful even tho pancake had sauce! I recommend getting a lot less food because their portions are really big. For two of us we could ve easily just gotten only the rice and still get full, had to take a lot of pancake home. Definitely coming back here to try their soup / other items.

I deliver with Uber Eats whenever I have time. Ive been called for tofu several times, but its late every time. Even the lie that you only need 30 minutes to prepare today... Theres a reason other restaurants deal with Uber drivers first. Drivers also have a set delivery schedule, and if they are late at one location, all other customers are late as well, and they receive service reviews based on star ratings accordingly. Since there is a delivery time, you can also check the restaurant preparation deadline in the app. It was 17 minutes, not 30 minutes, and there was a customer who had to deliver by 31 minutes, but if you said anything in a way to avoid responsibility, I wouldnt have anything to say. Why is the driver responsible for the restaurant being late? Even if the driver says to eat up when it comes to being a little late, I dont know what kind of treatment it is to ask someone to leave when they are late. I dont want to wait there for the driver, nor do I want to be chased out of the store. I was about to cancel after waiting for over 10 minutes, but the female staff member handled it quickly, so Im leaving 1 star. :(

December 21, 2023

Customer service is very unprofessional. My cousin and I arrived at this place with my two son. We waited for 10 minutes and asked us to write our name and number. There is 5 tables that are vacant. They said they are not ready yet. So I asked if we could sit at the table and just wait there. Its hard to wait outside with two kids, its windy and cold. But the server rudely said Wait we are not ready yet and turned her back.

December 21, 2023

First off theres no place to park, then when we came in to be seated, we were told to wait outside when theres empty tables available. Poor customer service, I dont recommend this place nor will I be coming back here.

December 21, 2023

Service has gone down :( Foods only alright now. Revised my rating from a few years ago, giving my friend and I the experience that we dont feel like we should come back again. We got seated - ordered our food, one was a cold noodle combo and an extra cold noodle. 45minutes later, we then asked for an update, then was told they are working on it, and should be out in 10-15 mins, what suprised me was the table that arrived after us already got their food - so my guess was our order was forgotten or lost. Alright the combo comes out.... as I wait for the 2nd noodle, I then asked about it - the server was extremly defensive - that we only ordered the combo, and went on about us just ordering 1... In the end she said I can put in the order for the other one - after being all defensive and rude with the encounter, simply said no thanks well just share the 1 and called it a night. Not impressed with the service, I understand they were busy, but would have been nice to solve the situation that weve been waiting long and lets get us food...

December 21, 2023

The food here is good and price is fair, but today we came in as a party of 2 and put our name on the waitlist. We were respectfully standing at the entrance (which is very spacious) we were at least 2-3 meters away from other customers dining. We weren t in anybody s way, and there wasn t anybody else around us. But the waitress asked us to go wait outside. It s 12 degrees today. I have a car which I could have waited in. But I find it extremely unfriendly for customers that don t have a car and have to wait in the cold. I would understand if the entrance was just too small or if there was a big crowd at the door. I don t see a reason why we had to wait outside, especially because they called us to come inside 2 mins after we went out. At this point, we ve already left. There are plenty of Korean restaurants with the same quality around

December 21, 2023

The tofu soup only has beef and tofu, which is a bit disappointing. The beef is just ordinary beef slices and is a little bit spicy. The amount of kimchi is a bit small and the taste is sweet (I rarely eat kimchi that I don t like ). The pickled radish is also sweet and not crispy. This set meal costs $16.99 extra! I don t think it s worth the cost. In addition, the fried chicken tastes okay, but the rice cake is not transparent enough and a bit hard. I can only say that ordering Uber delivery this time made me think that there are other options that are better and have better CP value. Taste varies from person to person, but the price is really expensive

One of the best Korean restaurants for Tofu soup. Other items on the menu look good also and I look forward to trying it in the near future. The Tofu soup is reasonably priced, which is a welcome when every restaurant is jacking up their price like crazy. It still comes with an egg that you can crack into your boiling stone pot. The rice that comes with the soup, they actually cook it in the stone pot for you.

I recall I used to frequent this spot when they first opened in 2017. Came back recently in October. I feel like the menu seems a bit different from when I used to come here. Had the stone pot bibimbap and the chicken bulgogi. Wish the bibimbap was served with the raw egg yolk instead of a fried egg as I liked to mix up the yolk in the rice and then cook it on the inner wall of the hot stone pot. Aside from that, nice that they give you plenty of sauce to mix with your dishes. A bit difficult to flag down the servers as they seemed pretty busy. But food was fairly tasty. Tiny parking lot in from of the restaurant but street parking available outside.

Easily 5/5 stars Really reasonable prices for good food and great service. Theyre generous with their side dishes (kimchi, tofu, onions), meaning unlimited refills when you ask. We got the Soup + Bulgogi combo (w/ extra rice). The portion was great for two. Total before tax was around $29. Wow! Barely see that kind of prices dining out for two anymore. The staff was friendly and helpful. Thank you!

Probably the best stone bibimbap Ive had in Metro Vancouver so far. They even had an extra stone pot served with crispy rice. The pots were served in elevated wood boxes. The organization of the meat and veggies was so beautiful and the portions were big

I recently dined at DooBoo Unfortunately, my experience wasnt great. The food lacked seasoning, and even a basic element like salt seemed missing. I had to resort to adding hot sauce just to add some flavor, but it ended up overpowering the dish. Its possible that my taste preferences differ, and this cuisine might be better appreciated by those who have a fondness for Korean flavors

Great spot! Surprised to see some good vegetarian options. Definitely not vegan friendly. Had the rice cakes and vegetable pancake and would recommend them.

Home style Korean restaurant. Taste good with fair price. The only problem is the limited parking. However, we will come again if we are in the area.

First time here- food taste good, I d say something typical in a Korean restaurant. It s not a bad thing but you know it s consistent with others. I d say pass on the fried clams and shrimp salad for its price you can order better dish for a little bit more money. Surprisingly the miso soup was actually really tasty! we didn t plan to eat the miso soup, but we tried it in the end and we regretted not eating it sooner.

The food quality is bad and unclean Especially the kimchi had already deteriorated. Not recommend!

This was one of the best Korean restaurants Ive ever been to! They had amazing tofu soup, and even their cold noodles were delicious. They also have unlimited refills on the side dishes! I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

One of the best Korean restaurants around Its one of those restaurants thay you will for sure crave to go back The pork belly was my favorite, the tofu soup was so tasty and the ingredients were very freah. You can choose from 5 different levels of spiciness. The restaurant itself is very clean and the staff are super nice. Its not a very fancy place but yeah the taste of the food will make you go back very soon. Ill try the short ribs next time as the waitress recommended but I was craving for pork belly so next time Ill try the short ribs and the seafood tofu soup

We ordered the soft tofu hot pot, extra spicy with beef, and boy did they deliver. Such a flavourful and abundant serving of tofu, vegetables, and meat all in one bowl. THEY DO NOT SKIMP ON INGREDIENTS! They also include an egg, and not all places do that anymore. *cough* House of Tofu on North Road *cough*. If youre craving SDB, I HIGHLY recommend this place. Their bulgogi sauce is also ridiculously good.

Surprisingly good place to get your tofu fix. The curried tofu was so good I wanted to back and get more. The soybean milk was spot on. And the creamy silk tofu with brown sugar was just right as a pick me up. Would recommend to come here and try it out.

Customer service is absolutely great here, the staff are very attentive to needs and so friendly. My wife and I ordered a bowl of kimchi stew and the fried garlic pork dish. The stew was flavourful, but the fried garlic dish was bland. Lacking seasoning, garlic was burned too which was sad because it really did look good.

The food came super late and the server (the order lady) did not notice when we were trying to order. The restaurant is not big I don t know what they cannot even see the whole tables. The server (old lady) forgot to give us the takeout box as well. Didn t give us the refill. Customers are not a joke
