Reviews for Cupbop - Korean BBQ in a Cup in Norman, OK
Honestly surprised this place has so many positive reviews, which is what drove us to choose it for dinner. As soon as we walked... in: it was greesy EVERYWHERE- I mean grease dripping off their signage, footprints on the floor and on the chairs and tables.Every table was dirty. There were bugs (no not just flies, which were also everywhere) like beetles crawling all over the floorand walls. The employees looked utterly clueless- the first 10 minutes after we ordered they stood around and talked. Thenfinally started making food. After about 15 minutes they had started finally dishing out the bowls. (Setup is similar to PandaExpress, they just have to grab a bowl and dish out the food while someone makes the fresher food in the back) and while ordersstarted piling up it just started getting stale and the employees seemed confused about what they were dishing out. My fiancéand I didn?t even wait to taste the food, after about 20 minutes he went to get a refund. The manager came out of the back andasked if we didn?t like the food, my fiancé politely explained that we were waiting and noticed how flustered the employeeslooked while food just sat there. She quietly said she?d give him a refund online and then retreated to the back. Didn?t stay upto help her team. Her staff clearly needed direction and help and she just went to go hide in the back. We took our business toFuzzy?s across the street. Read more
way too hot (no air conditioning), food was bad (pretty sure they gave me pork instead of chicken, a meat i personally prefer... not to eat, and the noodles were dry), and the staff was rude (yelled at my boyfriend for their own mistake- losing his order).kinda disappointed bc i was excited about this place. prob not coming back. :( - also one of the employees had their beard out(not covered) while handling food :( Read more
The food itself was pretty good, it was something I had never had and would definitely try again. We all got different varieties... of things and everyone enjoyed their meals. The staff was friendly and helpful. The problem came when I glanced up and saw astaff member using tongs to get meat out of one of the pots up front and was using her ungloved fingers to try to pull the meatout of the tongs- she then ate it. Another woman was at a pot stirring something and pulled her mask down to bite her nails onthe other hand, while stirring. Honestly, I?m sure this stuff happens constantly in restaurants, but for it to be happeningright in front of everyone it really made me wonder what goes on that people don?t see. Read more
Food is good, but they forgot to sauce my cup, so it looks a little sad and is bland. Just kinda meat and noodles. Also went on... opening day, it was a fun experience and a solid middle of the line korean. Nothing like Dong A or the more authentic/variedKorean available in the OKC metro area. But good for a fast-ish lunch to go. The Korean corndog is worth trying, it's anexperience! Read more
Excellent place and a new favorite for sure! The portions are generous and filling (with the exception of their kimchi side,... which is quite small for the price?but still tastes great!), and everything is super tasty. My only quibble is the portion andprice of the kimchi, which I hope they adjust (either a bigger portion to match the price or a lower price for the 4oz portion)in the future. Will absolutely be eating here often! Read more
I had Doochi bop and it was amazing! They have great options for vegetarians too, and the environment is so nice. The staff was... the friendliest I?ve met in Campus Corner. Read more
The service was very friendly and the food looks , smells, and tastes delicious! We got to sample the Korean corn dog too, and... it was a hit. The fried chicken and the beef bulgogi were on point. We are already planning what we will order next time. Thisplace is an awesome addition to Campus Corner! Read more
This place was pretty good when it opened in July 2022. Unfortunately the place has gone downhill food wise and cleanliness... wise. There was a thin layer of grease on the ground and there were flies all around the dirty tables. I went during lunch timeso it pretty busy, but it seems short staffed since I had to wait 15-20 minutes to get my bowl. Normally I can tolerate thecleanliness since I can just order takeout. However, the food is not the same. I can't buy food at this high of a priceespecially when they charge the same for lower quality food. I can't recommend going here at it's current state. The one inEdmond is alot better than this restaurant. Read more
