Muguboka Restaurant

A small neighborhood business located on the SW corner of 5th Avenue and Balboa in the Richmond District. Driven by many times and decided to grab the lunch special. Two lunch combos: 1) spicy pork and tofu soup, and 2) bulgogi and tofu soup. I ordered about 1pm and it was ready quick - within 10 mins. Flavor for both were decent although the bulgogi could have used some more flavoring. Although I got it to go, the tofu soup was still piping hot by the time I got it back to work and ate it! I like my soup hot so that was a bonus for me. With they could have given us a little more baan chaan on the sides because there nice and fresh. The veggies were full of crunch and I liked their kim chi. Next time because their veggies were so good I’m going to try the bibimbap!

From out of town and legitimately look forward to returning! Food was outstanding, environment relaxing, and service= impeccable and friendly. I appreciate the great experience. Food : 5/5 | Service : 5/5 | Atmosphere : 5/5 … More

I loved the food. Flavorful, great portions, quick service -- really nothing more I can ask for. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel cared for. I have no friends. The person in the picture, the one serving himself glass noodles, is actually a stand-in/ performance dinner mate that the servers will provide to accompany exceptionally lonely customers. I, of course, am exceptionally lonely, and without hesitation, the server asked the man to sit and eat dinner with me. This is the first time in my life that I have felt friendship. I do have to apologize to the restaurant -- staff and guests -- for my outburst. I should not have torn off my clothes, nor should I have began using chicken bones as a weapon. I had not come to terms with the reality that my dinner gues was merely doing his job. Despite this, thank you muguboka for making me full -- of amazing Korean dishes and friendship.
