I saw this place on Shark Tank and wanted to try it for years. I really appreciate the awesome staff at the CupBop at The Village for giving me one of the worst food experiences I have ever had in my life. There is no way in hell. Food was just as bland as it wants to be. Korean fried chicken tasted like breakfast sausage. The tofu was good though, I’ll give them that. They also need to stop relying on the sauce to save the meal, person up front was damn near putting a whole bottle on every meal. Season the food like you mean it and you ain’t gotta do all that. Overall, the whole meal was disappointing. I’ve literally had food in prison with more flavor than this. And don’t look at the pictures and let them fool you. The food is not worth it. I’m trying to tell y’all

Maybe I came at at bad time of day... It was about 8pm. I was the only customer. Took about 5 minutes for the two employees to finish cleaning (?) and whatever else they were doing to finally help me. I ordered the beef cupboards meal. I had to wait about 5 minutes for fresh noodle, no problem I said. Got my order and headed home. I got home to eat and noticed when I went to mix my bowl up that there was no meat! None! There was no extra sauce for the potstickers either. No time to run back before they closed so I tried calling at 8:45pm. The call goes straight to the answering machine that tells me to call back during business hours and then states there business hours and that they are open until 9pm. So, not a great first impression. I was willing to forgive the initial slow customer se

Fast and friendly service. The regular cupbop size is very filling- with 2 meats, rice noodles and vegetables. Great option for speed but also relatively healthy.

I was excited to try this place. I ordered the beef and crispy chicken and really enjoyed it. I typically like spicy food and I ordered mine a seven and a half and to be honest with you it was pretty spicy. I mean it wasn't overbearing but I can't imagine how spicy the number 10 is. The lady working there was very nice and welcoming. She advised me to try the seven and a half. Next time I'll order just a little bit of lower spiciness to get the perfect amount. The inside is very nice and they do have some tables available for outside seating. Make sure you shake your bowl to mix it up properly before you eat it. I recommend giving this place a try.

This location has no issues serving burnt protien and lukewarm food to patrons. Even the Mandoo was soggy and lukewarm with who knows how long it sat in the warmer. They seem to also be understaffed for a weekend at a busy shopping location. Their food warmers clearly aren’t keeping food at temperature and the quality sucks. I’d pass on spending $30 to eat here. That’s way too much for the little bit of meat they do add, maybe 1/3 cup which was dry and burnt. The poor food quality and then the staff is rude. You can’t even comment and inquire cause they don’t care to make it right. Take your money and business elsewhere.
