Far East + Kitchen

We came here for dinner on a Friday night and it was wasn’t very crowded. The food here has a definite Korean bent to it. We both ordered the bento box meals, which were a bit challenging as we like to share, but the second option for each box was one of the rolls. We would have preferred more mix and match. They did bring us some complementary pickles before the meal, which was nice. We made the mistake of ordering some Korean rice wine that’s kinda like Nigori, but carbonated (and had aspartame listed as an ingredient). Avoid that. Food overall was tasty, although the bulgogi seemed to have a bit too many mushrooms vs. beef and the rolls kinda fell apart trying to pick up a piece.

Phenomenal! Everything we had was absolutely perfectly made. The presentation of the food is beautiful and the service is great. The tempura was so light and crispy and the oil tasted so fresh like they had just changed the fryer. The water tastes like it's filtered and they offer plenty. I am excited to have this on my list of go to places from now on. The atmosphere was quiet (we got there right when they opened) and extremely clean. 10+ stars!

For Scotts Valley and Santa Cruz this place is super legit. I got the soon tofu stew and it was accurate and very good. I’m comparing this restaurant with the Korean restaurants in Sunnyvale and this place holds up well. The kimchi was trash though so it would be nice if they got better quality.

Best Korean food I’ve had in awhile! Bulgogi was incredible. Great presentation too! Loved the order of Kimchi fried rice. 10/10 recommend! My girlfriend got the Galbi (short ribs) and said they were so good. Also super fun they have a robot that brings out food for you. Super cool to experience…

The Galbi was great our rolls were excellent and the staff was friendly and attentive.
