cupbop korean bbq

my wife and i went to the food truck roundup really excited to try cupbop. we had heard so many good things and had quite a few people recommend it. unfortunately, we walked away a little disappointed. nothing really bad happened- it just tasted ok. the flavors were ok, but nothing special.

this place is great! i love to take new people here! odds are they love it just as much as me!

perfect for a first date!

cupbop is one of the best food trucks. you will find it solo around town or in a wagon circle at a school or community event. the food never disappoints. make sure to top it off with mondos. the staff is great and treats you as a friend.

for the valley fair mall location
slightly entertaining, slightly spicy and more than slightly flavorful but delicious all the same.
cupbop is a nice diversion from the ordinary korean with dinner-in-a-cup.
first you choose your poison by choosing your base, rice, noodle or lettuce.
then you pick a flavorful protein: chicken, pork, beef, tofu and other toppings.
last comes the spice level, which they slather on lavishly.
choose wisely here my friends! make them stop if you must!
this particular part of the preparation determines whether or not you if you will enjoy or be paying for the mean rest of the evening, ( if you know what i mean).
once you have your cup in hand, feel free to sit down and enjoy the slightly loud and youthful environment while you dine.
most of the decor is on the ceiling, which is rather fun to look at, well at least inside the location at the valley fair mall, and it's kind of fun two enjoy your bowl of korean bbq while watching the fountains just outside the window or from the patio also.
i can see how this place could easily become a favorite for west valley residents or mall shoppers.
definitely edible for fast food k-fusion bbq!
something you should check out. i definitely recommend that you should try it at least once.

cupbop is my favorite restaurant/food truck of all time. one thing i love about them is there 1-10 heat scale! it lets me get the perfect amount of heat i want!

you get what you pay for. the food is pretty decent if your in a hurry and just need to grab something quick to eat. i go here from time to time.

my son brought me to a food truck rally where there are dozens of choices, and he recommended this one. and he was right--it's really good. the spicy cup is great. but be prepared, you'll spend a lot for a small-ish serving size. i'd prefer "bowlbop" at the same price point.

great service & the food is fantastic. spice rating of a 6 is definitely my limit. but didn't make it unbearable (at least for me) so i could still taste the deliciousness of the food. plus when you're prideful and don't take a bag for your food, then proceed to spill your food right in front of the restaurant as you try to ride off on your bike... they are super nice and replace the cup! moral of the review: eat at cupbop, be happy and always take a bag (:

cupbop is awesome! we love this truck, the awesome korean pop music they have blaring, and the food is awesome. love getting the spicy bowl and the dumplings are super good. such a fun place to visit!

omg. where have you been all my life? my family went for a drive from ogden all the way to day break. i thought it was crazy until i tasted your food. it was amazing! not a regret for the drive.

flavorful sauces. i tried the combo, with beef, pork, and bean-thread noodles. the meats were okay, but overcooked and grainy, like they'd been simmered and held rather than grilled. noodles were noodles. i don't really like mixing rice and noodles, but that's just me.

the bowl came with several sauces on top. looked like a couple of chile-based sauces, which had real funky-spicy depth of flavor, along with a creamy chile-mayo sort of thing, and a darker soy sauce(?). the sauces made the dish. once stirred in, it was quite good.

service was very fast.

just wish the meats tasted fresher (yeah, tough to do in a quick-service model, but...).

we often catch cupbop at the sugarhouse farmers market. in fact, it's often the only reason we go! i just love their food and they are just so friendly. they'll often give us some extra since my husband and i usually share a cup. it's delicious. we like to get a meat variety so we can have it all in one bowl. it's super filling, even when we share! yum yum.

my favorite slc food truck!. we finally tried out cupbop after seeing them around for a while and i don't know why it took us so long! it's amazing! the guys that work on the truck are very nice and giving, often adding in a little extra food when they find out my husband and i are sharing. but the food is oh so amazing. we like to get a bit of all the meats and the flavors are absolutely perfect. plus the servings are huge so my husband and i don't have any problem sharing a cup together. we've tried out quite a few trucks in slc and we have to say that this is our favorite so far. we'll be eating at this truck any chance we get!

we finally caught up with cupbop!!! we had been chasing this truck for weeks.. amazing!!! it is the best food truck in utah. when you order, let them choose.. you won't be disappointed! the spice level is perfect the meat is cooked perfect. the only problem is you will be craving cupbop at 3:00am in the morning so order 2!! great job guys way to put slc on the map for great korean bbq!!! "shhhh... just eat!"

are you ready to add one more thing to your “craveable” list? then, you should hunt down the copbop korean bbq truck and fall in love. the concept is simple: korean bbq in a cup. yes. however, their flavors are anything but simple. cupbop serves korean style bbqs (beef, pork, and chicken) with rice, veggies, and noodles. and it is pretty much like a flavor explosion – amazing sauces, amazing textures, fast, friendly, and not to mention fun. these guys really know how to keep a long line of customers entertained and happy. they want to please you; and they do! for my first cupbop, i ordered the combo cup – because hey, i wanted to try everything. the combo said it came with beef and pork, but they so lovingly asked me if i would also like chicken. well, heck yes, i want to try the chicken too! we also ordered the mandoo (korean dumplings). and because cupbop’s customer service is wonderful and they knew 2 people were sharing this famous appetizer – they offered us 4 pieces instead of 3,

had bi-bop hot version while i was on lunch at outdoor retailer. served large cups and food was full of flavor. man i wish they had something like this where i lived. no offense to other food trucks but i think i will be eating here everyday here. highly recommend these guys! saulgoodman
