Crisp Garden is a small restaurant with Korean food so flavorful that it exceeds its capacity! We weren’t familiar with Korean cuisine, and our server Tony was so welcoming and explained many dishes on the menu to us. We were blown away by everything that we ordered, the food is excellent, beautiful, and delicious with prices to match. The atmosphere is very simplistic and casual and the restaurant is well maintained! The only con is that the hard benches at the tables do get uncomfortable after a while.. maybe bring your own pillow? Only joking. It’s definitely worth a stop!! 10/10 recommend!

Nice clean small Korean spot. The service is friendly and timely! A small menu but the offerings are delicious! I went two days in a row 🫣

Our first time visiting this place was back in January this year. Customer service was okay. (I’m sure it was because of a language barrier) I did like the food I ordered, though! The Bulgogi Kimbap and Mini Kimbap are good. Really liked the Gyoza as well. My husband ordered the Beef Udon and said it was alright.

★★

This place is not a very authentic Korean restaurant. I never seen people put sauce on the top of Kimbap. This is not the sushi roll. The Seafood pancake is just so so but I will never order again. Also the side-dishes is not old. Very disappointed on the Kimchi.

★★★★★
March 12, 2023

The food was fantastic! We ordered grilled bulgogi, kimchi fried rice, tokoyaki, sweet and spicy (6 pc) Korean fried chicken, and egg roll kimbap. Total cost: $75 before tip. That sushi (egg roll kimbap) was my favorite along with the fried chicken! The waitress brought out a sample bowl of a yummy beef soup (that had seaweed and beef crumbles) to everyone in the dining room, so that was really cool!!

I was kinda disappointed. The chicken wings weren't that good, as the breading was not true to classic Korean fried chicken. The ramen was kinda bland, and the tofu soup was just not as flavorful as I was expecting for the price. The vibe is good and the scenery is pretty unique. I don't know if I'd go back since it wasn't quite worth the price I paid. It all looks good, just the flavor isn't really there.

★★★

Overall it was good. The gyoza was delightful but the pork wrap and fried chicken needed seasoning. Fried rice was excellent. The presentation is beautiful and I like that they play Korean music in the background. I wish the table was set with condiments like soy sauce etc.

This restaurant is a breath of fresh air for West Texas! We had this to go the first time and it was super yummy. We couldn’t wait to eat inside and experience the food super fresh. We finally had it yesterday! We ordered a smorgasbord of delicious dishes. My favorite was the combo pineapple fried rice. Great flavor and plenty of meat! I love the pork belly wraps and anything bulgogi has been delectable. The staff is super hospitable and very attentive. We will definitely have this as a regular place for Korean food.

Weve eaten here multiple times before they were sold. Due to the confusion during the sale and subsequent new owners figuring out the restaurant we stopped coming in. Today we tried them again, grabbing 2 orders of their bulgogi to-go, only to discover that their version of bulgogi is really expensive peppered beef with velveted meat. Very disappointed

great dinner place for families. customer service was great, my children were accommodated with paper plates and plastic cups without my request (I usually have to ask for these), Food came out quick, Food was delicious, fresh and hot. I recommend ordering the kimichi fried rice, Sweet spicy fried wings, Soy garlic wings, spicy pork kimbap. Glad we came across this Korean Rest. Will definitely be coming back.

This used to be my go to for Korean wings and bibimbap and loved it when it first opened. However I m not sure if there s been a change in ownership or management. My friend and I came here on a Thursday night and we ordered bibimbap. We got our food and the stones didn t seem like they were sizzling like they used to. We didn t pay much attention to it and dug in the food which tasted rather bland. I tried adding soy sauce and homemade sauce but something was still off in the flavor. Our waitress didn t even bother to check up on us after serving the food nor to refill drinks. Sad because my friends and I would bring a lot of business to this place almost every weekend.

If you want a quiet place to enjoy some very savory Korean food, this is the place. I got the Kimchi soup, the best soup Ive had in a while. Would recommend to someone that has never had Korean food or anyone for that matter. The combo fried rice, which is huge it could feed 2-3 people.

This place is a change Midland needed. The food is life changing. So many new foods I didnt know I loved. I would recommend the wings and bibimbap. The soy bean paste is different and adds life to meals. The alcohol drinks are refreshing and fruity. I plan on coming back and trying everything on the menu.

Literally the only place to get soju . The food is good even though they have a very limited menu as far as korean food. Im gf but mean to to get some korean style fried chicken for my family asap. Review based on my experience with the staff, the meal i had, and the and, just the attitude the patrons of such a place had. Ill update as soon as my family tries the chicken! Which is what, I think, theyre really about. But the soju options!!!!

December 22, 2023

we ve gone in the past and got pretty good service, but tonight. NOPE. not ever going back, both the waitresses there saw us, the main girl who was doing the tickets even cleaned our table and sat us down, but never took our drink order or anything. we waited almost 15 to 20 minutes, and they were serving everyone else except us. i even looked directly at her and she looked at me then looked the other way and kept helping everyone else, so we ended up leaving. never going back.

The food is amazing!!! We all enjoyed the food. The Bibimbap was soo good! I would definitely order and recommend!!! My husband got Bulgogi and it was so good. Plenty of flavor and it was hot from the stove! We got egg rolls that were so delicious we wanted to take some home. We also got the cheese corn. If you want something sweet and cheesy the cheese corn is perfect. The only problems we had is it did take a while for our food to come out but was worth the wait. My daughter also got the mochi and she loved it. We will definitely be back. We are excited to try the galbi next time.

Local Guide
December 22, 2023

This place claims to be Korean, but the dishes are not Korean at all. They try to imitate the Korean dishes to varying degrees of success. Some are pretty close to the actual Korean dishes, while others are far, far away and doesnt taste even remotely close to the actual dish. The main reason this gets a 1 star is because they substitute the premium ingredients that actual Korean restaurants use with very cheap ingredients, but still charge premium prices for their dishes. This is just straight up awful. If youre going to run a bootleg restaurant, the price should reflect that, not charge as much, or in some cases even more than the actual restaurant.

My favorite place. Their new orange chicken is magically crispy and not too sweet. The chicken wings are also crispy and flavorful. Best fires in town. Bibimbop always has fresh veggies. Rice bowls and ramen are delightful. The owners are so nice. It s always clean inside and the music isn t too loud. Every time it s my turn to pick where to eat this is my choice.

December 22, 2023

We arrive Sat about 4pm after my sons football games. If youre a person of color dont waste your time. They cleaned a table & never acknowledged us after we sat down. Didnt even look at us. I wanted to try all kinds of things. We were about to spend some money. Havent had Korean since the last time I went back home for vacation. We went to Torinos across the street for a shot while we found some where else to spend our money.

★★★
December 22, 2023

The food was good and service was quick but the prices aren t updated on their menu, when we got our check it was higher than expected, staff didn t bother to tell us that the prices had gone up or that prices on menu weren t updated before we sat down. Each item we ordered was increased by $3

Walking in, we were greeted with a friendly voice that took us to our table. And took our drink orders. Brought out a snack of kimchi, pickled radish, seaweed and bean sprouts- yum!!! We absolutely love Korean food. My favorite thing I constantly crave is kimchi. So I get excited when it actually tastes amazing! Seriously I could eat just a big plate of theirs and nothing else - it was that good! But of course we ordered more. The Tokoyaki was a nice crisp ball that melted in your mouth- careful they are hot!! But not spicy. They are a crisp on the outside creamy slightly sweet gooey inside. My daughter was mad I ate two of the five without sharing. we had some seaweed soup- yum!!! For the main, My husband had Golden fried rice with pineapple. Chicken. Which he loved! I had spicy pork hot stone bowl, and my daughter had bulgogi hot stone bowl. Y all I ve always taken pictures of our food, but it was so delicious and we were having fun chatting that I didn t even think of pictures until we were done! The owner is a very nice man. We enjoyed chatting with him for a bit. Vegetarian options: Definitely getting tofu hot stone next time and kimchi pancakes. :) there are plenty of options for me to bring my sister when she comes out. :)

BEST KOREAN RESTAURANT IN WEST TEXAS!! I make no exaggeration when I say every part of our meal was incredibly Delicious, Fresh, Quick, and served with excellent service!! I highly recommend anyone and everyone to give Crisp Garden/OPPA Korean food a try and you too will love it. Theres something for everyone, and the prices are perfectly fair and appropriate to the sizes of the entrées and etc. Perfectly clean, fun and calm atmosphere. 5/5 - Expect to spend $15 on one person. Extremely Recommend!

December 22, 2022

No recognition of individual needs. Plates are spicey and the don t have alternatives for those who can t tolerate chili in the foods - that also goes for children. There are no kids plates. We love korean food, but not here which also is resistant to give more of the side plates such as kimchi.

★★★★★

Service was just ok waitress left while we were ordering appetizers so we only ordered one. I ordered the pineapple golden rice and had to send it back because the rice was burnt and the shrimp was over cooked. They brought me another with the same rice and fresh shrimp. Had them take it and wasn t going to send it back for a third time. They brought me a completely fresh out and I didn t want however I did try it and it was good not burnt. However once you taste Burt rice and shrimp your taste buds are off I even tried cleaning my pallet.definitely not worth 66.16 for a lunch

Great place for Korean! As one who did 2 tours in the ROK in a past life long ago in my Army days, this place is great! Very clean with friendly service. Had the best Bulgogi and Rice, along with Korean Fried Chicken I have had since I was in country. My only concern was I prefer bamboo chopstix over the fancy stainless steel ones they had but otherwise was excellent and I will be back. Was also lunch and I skipped the Soju as I had to go back to work. Highly recommend for Korean food in Midland/Odessa!

This place left an amazing first impression on a door dash order alone. The food was amazing. Even in to-go bowls they made an effort to artistically lay out the food. The egg rolls were cut in half which was a nice touch to complement dipping them in sauce. Everything was neatly packaged. They gave me two teas when I ordered one maybe because the cups were small. Everything oozed attention to detail and consideration for the customer. I might have to get of my rear and go visit in person.

Finally a place in Midland to indulge in Korean fare, menu is limited and they dont come anywhere close to the selection other spots have that Ive been to. They have great banchan and the bulgolgi was delicious. It seems that they can prepare other things off menu because they got me kimbap which wasnt on the menu. Will go back to see if they can make yuk gae jang.

If your wanting authentic Korean this is not the place. I did 2 tours in South Korea and this food is not close. The pork belly is completely unseasoned even with the sauces its pretty bland. My wifes bulgogi was so bland it wasnt worth eating. The appetizer fried sausage was 2 cheap hotdogs rolled in some spice and served almost to greasy to eat.

This is, hands down, my favorite restaurant in Midland! I love the bulgogi bibimbap - comes out sizzling in a hot stone bowl. My sister and friend enjoyed the pineapple fried rice, served out of an entire pineapple delivered on your plate. Fun bubbling fish display for the kiddos. Music is authentic. And the staff are so hospitable. Can t wait to try the kimbap!

I m from Korea and I love to cook Korean food. I am impressed with this restaurant. Food overall is great and well curated menu to cater to non-Korean and Korean clientele. Price may seem little high, but their generous portion offset the cost. In reality, if you go to Houston or Dallas, you can expect to may 20% more. Staff was very friendly. And while mask restrictions is off, staff was wearing masks. Seafood pancake was crispy, and had generous portion of ingredients. They should add bit more green onions. Sweet spicy chicken was great. Hot pot rice bowl was on point. They also served traditional seaweed soup, which was a great touch and authentic. Galbi (beef ribs) were generous portion, I think it could use more seasoning or longer time marinating. It was still good enough. Don t forget to get Hite beer, a light beer from korea. Very refreshing. Decor is nice, bright and lively, and exudes Korean vibe with kpop music. Keep up the good work!

We come in here at least once every 2 weeks. I m sure they know us by now. Whether it s to-go or dine in, they re always really sweet and the food fresh and delicious. Even if it isn t authentic according to other reviews, the food is good and I appreciate their kind service. Remember that this IS Midland...it s hard to get good restaurants here to stay. So, we should appreciate the good places that we DO get. We re here to support.

Great food and great service. The bibimbap bowls had a really good flavor but I would ve been fine if it didn t come in the stone bowl because it never cooled down enough to eat. I liked they re hot sauce though.

I went to Oppa Korean Restaurant. Three people asked me for my drink order. The last person didn t know the beer I was talking about, Asahi beer on their menu. I ordered Fire Wings, after 15 minutes they said they couldn t make it, they were out of sauce. I then went with the garlic soy wings, again they couldn t make it. What a rotten birthday experience.

Went here for the first time today. The entire experience was great. The starter vegetables were so good; pickled radishes, broccoli, cucumbers with a spicy sauce and some soybean sprouts. Pickled radishes were the absolute best tasting. I got the pot stickers to start off with and they were good. Then got the bibimpap with spicy pork which was extraordinary. Ill definitely recommend this new restaurant to all of my friends!

Is the food completely authentic traditional Korean? No. Is it bad? No! I lived in Korea for three years and can say that, no the food isnt quite the same, but it is still good! If you have never had Korean this is a great stepping stone in Midland as we do not have many places like this. Personally, I think they need to work on the gochu for the Bibimbap and the Soondubu Jigae (tofu stew). Both very tasty! But not quite right and could prolly be easily fixed. The tofu stew tasted like they are using soybean base from the other stew, which isnt the right flavor (instead should be more Gochugaru focused). That being said, I really enjoyed eating here as I really miss Korean food, they satisfied that for me. The dolsot bibimbap is really good and gimbap very tasty! As far as price, it is to be expected. They have to import all the ingrediants, so of course it will be more. I also had no problem with the service they were all very nice and food came out quick. Def go and check it out!!!

Really enjoyed this place. We can to celebrate my cousin birthday and the atmosphere was really pleasant. Loved the service here to, that is pretty important to me. We order appetizers of Gyoza, Egg Rolls, and Soy Garlic Chicken Wings. Let me just say first of all, the chicken wings are a must try. I really want to come back and try the other favors. The crispness of the crust and seasoning together was perfection. I ordered the fried rice with chicken and beef. Everyone else ordered different dishes of the hot stone bowls. One was the Bulgogi, one order the shrimp, another ordered the Bibimbap, and a spicy pork. We enjoyed them all. Just a little warning, the hot stone bowls are really hot. So handle with caution but enjoy!!!
