I can’t get enough of the tofu bowl and hangover soup. Sooo good! I’m bummed their Valencia location closed because I could walk there, but I’m glad the other location is still open so I can get my fix. I crave their food all the time. It’s one of my favorite spots for a meal that’s both comforting and healthy. Highly recommend!
Good food, impressive service. I mis-ordered and the fixed it for me even though it was my mistake.

I tried Matko at a Berkeley Bowl pop up. Not only was it wonderfully delicious food but the owner, Ina, is very kind and clearly puts a lot of care and heart into what she makes. Definitely don’t miss out on trying Matko it’s a winner.
Mediocre, overpriced food in a food court. Go elsewhere.
I had a beef bulgogi bowl with half rice, half japchae. I expected the japchae to have vegetables but it was only glass noodles. The rice and noodles were cooked perfectly. However, the lack of variety of vegetables was what stood out to me. There was only corn, sliced cucumber, and radish, and none of them were pickled or anything. The bulgogi was cold and bland. The bowl cost $19.20 but there was an option on the ordering kiosk to add utensils for $0.75, which I did. Don't pay for utensils because they're available to grab for free. The chopsticks were the cheapest kind and wood was splintering off. I had to go back and grab a fork.
This location is in The Market food court. There's always free seats and the Wi-Fi is good. If you want to use the restroom, go to the security guard by the mailbox sculpture thing near the building entrance and show him your receipt.
Anyway, if you want Korean food, go somewhere else. If you want something for lunch, go somewhere else. There was a sign or something saying the food is like if it were made by a mother. Based on my experience here, the mother would have been someone who serves you cold and bland food.
