Quick Korean food when you're wanting some homecookin style Korean food. Small dine-in space so avoid popular times. Also be sure to call to see if they're open, their hours are a bit random.

Really liked the kimbap- don't know if it's authentic, but it's really good. Service was friendly and quick. Small place.

5/5 ... 5/5 in food, service, ambiance, and the amazing people that run this place I've been coming here for a while (since 2016) especially when I'm feeling down and craving good comfort food. I've been having a rough couple of days and the only motivation to get up today was Kim Bob Na Ra. I came and picked up my food and after paying for it, I looked over the fridge and wanted a Sprite. I told the nice woman that I'd like to pay for this Sprite as well and offered to pay in both cash or buy more sprite to buy it with card. She vigorously shaked her head with a big smile on her face and said "no no! On the house! It's okay! It's okay!" This small but kind gesture of hers has me bawling in tears sitting in my car. She has no idea how much this means to me in these rough times I'm going through where I'm losing hope in humanity. This restaurant and the owners who run it never has once let me down so please come and support them! They won't disappoint.

The food was delicious and the service was good! The ambiance isn't fancy, but it is still cute.

Stopped by for lunch with my girl friends. Got seated right away and brought out hot teas for us. The place bit small and was pretty packed with only two empty tables. We ordered spicy anchovy and kimchi kimbap, Sujebi and Sujebi ramen. Everything was good. Spicy anchovy is definitely spicy even for someone who enjoys eating spicy food regularly. Have me a heartburn later. But this is one my favorite places to visit for Korean street food.

Ordered tuna kimbap, odeng tang (fishcake soup), and tteokbokki+kimmari combo (spicy rice cake + fried glass noodle wrapped in seaweed). Everything tasted amazing!! Tteokbokki is on the sweeter side - sauce feels ketchup based, with cabbage. Liked that it wasn't watery. Kimbap portion is generous. Odeng tang was not too salty and perfectly seasoned. The place was packed on a Friday / lunch time. Overall, their price is reasonable, service was fast and the owners were so sweet. If you're craving street food style Korean food, would definitely recommend going to Kim bob na ra!

Highly reconciled this place if you are craving kimbap! The shop itself is small but was in crowded on a weekday afternoon. They have a wide range of kimbaps that are all very decently priced. We got the tuna and bulgogi kimbaps which were delicious, but I think the bulgogi takes the win for me! It also comes with kimchi. The service here was a little slow and not the best; but the food made up for it!

Have been craving Kimbab and drove all the way from Germantown to come here. It was very good and the kimbambs were huge! We tried the veggie, beef and nude. We also had their fried dumplings, bulgogi, and chicken katsu. Everything was so good and well worth the drive. The service was very good and they are very nice! They give you Assi drinks with your check, my kids loved them and took ours.

Great food at a very affordable price. My fiancée and I love their kimbap, specifically the tuna and bulgogi. They also have delicious and affordable ramen. The owners are extremely nice and friendly. We recently came back and saw that they had renovated their space. It looks much nicer and we are glad they are doing well. We need more affordable and scrumptious Korean food, and Kim Bob Na Ra is one of the best in town.

Cheers to my 400th review!! I've been wanting to try more authentic Korean food so found Kim Bob Na Ra through trusty Yelp (and some other recommendations). They close pretty early each day at 6:30 so definitely plan ahead if you are planning to visit for dinner! It's a small no-frills kind of place with delicious food! We ordered the bibimbap, tteokbokki, tuna kimbap, bulgogi kimbap, and kimchi stew. Everything was delicious and the tteokbokki and kimchi stew packed a punch heat-wise! It was a lot of food and we ended up taking a decent amount home. The portions are definitely large for the price!
