A great quick eats place in Koreatown! They currently don't have the hot food bar due to covid, but there's lots of freshly made food boxes to grab. Food is great for the price (most under $10!)
There's seating in the front of the store -- gives off a cute small cafeteria vibe.

I love this place. Have been coming here for several years but decided to leave a review bc I was especially impressed by the lunch special boxes this time. I think that these lunch specials are very filling and the prices are so affordable. Mine came with chicken cutlet, pan fried kimchee, crab cakes and a bed of rice. It also comes with miso soup on the side. You can also never go wrong with the bulgogi kimbap. Thank you to woorijip for consistently providing good service and fresh packaged food.

This is like going to a Seven Eleven in Asia where the bento boxes of delicious meals can be picked up and devoured on the go or seat and enjoy!
The price is very reasonable but the taste lunches above its weight! Excellent food at excellent price!!

This has been one of my favorite go-to spots for over 10 years. I've visited more times than I could count. The food is always delicious and extremely affordable. I love how everything is already packaged so you can choose to dine-in or take-out. This place is always reliable and convenient.

Every international student/ young professional know this is the best deal for budget dinner, high quality food, and fun vibes! They used to open later and turn into a self service bar with beers in the fridge but now the more a take away dinner place. It’s a great place for casual groups or takeaway.

Loved this place and the variety they offer. This is one place I can visit almost every day for a week and still not be bored. Definitely a must visit place if you love Korean flavours. The sushi was the only one which was a bit dry and didn't stand up to the others.

It’s a very convenient place to go. The food is reasonably priced and comes in containers similar to those you would get at a sushi restaurant. There is also a variety of canned or bottled drinks, which makes it easy to take to go or to eat in. My one complaint is that some of the food was room temperature and could have been kept in heat but it didn’t ruin the experience. If you are short on time but still looking for good food, this is the place to go.

lately, i have been in the vicinity of Ktown and have been at Woorijip bc it is convenient and the prepared foods there are consistently good. the layout of things is pretty simple: seating in the front, registers toward the front, stacks of shelved boxed food neatly organized, refrigerated units of drinks and cold eats further back and further seating in the back. this place is super clean, always brightly lit, and has a simple welcoming vibe to hungry masses on west 32nd st.
you can dine in here if you got the “jab” as they have a couple of tiny microwaves to warm up your food OR you can simply takeout. it’s basically cafeteria style eating in a neat organized tasty way. this is also a great way to intro noobs to Korean food: 1) bc there’s a good amount of variety of foods and sizes and 2) bc the quality is good and consistent.
sometimes, i just come here to pick up a side of kimchi as i am kinda an addict to this pickled eat as a side when i make dinner. other times, when i am too lazy to cook—the boxed varieties of Korean foods and other Asian eats hit the spot. recently, i had the clean rice noodles with bulgogi & spinach. the flavors are just what i wanted: savory, a little sweet, a little spicy, and full of comfort. the bulgogi is obviously shaved in—no big pieces, but it works bc this is a simple dish. while the packaging makes it seem small—this is an ample serving when it comes down to it. trust. boxed meals range from $5-$12—the rice noodles with bulgogi was $7 + tax. there are also a variety of smaller dishes like soups and sides in the $2-$7 range. choose your own adventure!
the staff are pretty nice and have been hospitable even when the lines are long and it is super busy. and trust me, it’s always busy in Ktown, just try waking through any time of day or night.
