Bab Korean Bistro - Brookline

I visit this fantastic restaurant occasionally because I really appreciate the unique atmosphere it offers. The staff is incredibly warm and attentive, and the service is impressively fast. Most importantly, the food is exceptional. I've been here numerous times, and I've always left satisfied. The prices are reasonable as well. I highly recommend this place to my friends and family.

**Spicy Black Bean Noodles**: The noodles were perfectly chewy and cooked just right, and the black bean sauce was both flavorful and refreshing. The only drawback is that it lacks spiciness, so if you're not a fan of spicy food, this is a great option—just don’t expect any heat! **Spicy Cold Noodles**: These noodles were also well-cooked and had a nice chewiness to them. The broth was delicious and had a good kick of spiciness! It embodied everything a cold noodle dish should be—tangy and perfect for hot summer days. **Crispy Scallion Pancake**: This was probably my favorite part of the meal! It was wonderfully crispy on the outside yet doughy in the center, and the dipping sauce complemented it perfectly. The service was prompt, and the staff were helpful in answering all our questions!

My favorite Korean restaurant! The food is excellent, the portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable. They even offer free dessert, which consists of little bite-sized fried rice cakes drizzled with honey. If you’re a fan of K-pop, especially from the second generation, you’ll love their music playlist!

A pretty pleasant experience. My Jajangmyeon with Beef hardly had any beef, which was a letdown, but the flavors were on point. Portions were huge too. Fried chicken was delicious.

This spot is worth giving a shot. They serve large portions for convenient rates. Regularly clean and with good ambience. Highly recommended.
