Very small restaurant in a courtyard. Incredibly clean and immaculate. One man out front and a few in the kitchen, only about 5 tables. Food was so so fresh and tasty and sensible prices - really recommend friendly and nice. Two veggie mains but as a veggie I was happy with what I got!

I usually come here with my friends and we all absolutely adore the food! The man at the till is so kind and attentive and customer service is always good! Food is always served hot, and doesn’t take that long to arrive either! My personal favourites have to be the Korean fried chicken (which I am craving right now its 12am and I can’t order 💔💔) and the fried dumplings, which are both always so crisp and absolutely delicious. Another thing I appreciate about this place is that it’s fully halal. I have no complaints from this place at all I would definitely recommend anybody to come here! The only thing I wish Kbob did was deliveries 🥲 I understand it might be hard due to the fact there are very few people in the store but I hope that one day there will be a delivery option available because the food is worth remembering!!!

Based on the reviews, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to get a seat so I initially ordered for takeaway but then tables freed up so I was able to eat in! I got rabokki with extra cheese, dumplings (I can't remember if it was chicken or beef), and small size spicy kfc. It was soo good. The noodles in the rabokki were super good, and the sauce was sweet and spicy so I had to eat the dumplings and chicken for a bit to let it cool down but honestly, I went back to it after a few bites and braced the heat because it was that good. This restaurant was on my 'want to go' list for ages but it was over 2 hours away, but honestly? I'm super happy I made the time and the trip to go here! If I'm ever in the area, or I wake up super early to make the trip, I would definitely come back again. Bonus points as the staff were super nice and accommodating! Didn't know that there's a minimum spend to pay with card but the food was worth it to order more. Probably would have ordered more to take home but I didn't have enough time 🥺. Have permanently added this restaurant to my favourites! (Also I wish I came earlier when they still had the kimbap, there's nothing like it in my area 🥲)

Absolutely loved this place, will definitely be coming again very soon. The man that owns the restaurant is a real sweetheart, he puts time and effort into the food and is really nice to the customers, delicious food for a good price. Today was my first time trying Korean food and i must say it was so good, I loved it. The food took a reasonable time and it was really worth it, The owner/chef tries his hardest to get to everyone in order and on time, he really deserves the world🥺❤️

Wow thanks for the great review. I'm glad you enjoyed Korean food for the first time. The food in our restaurant takes some time to cook fresh with fresh ingredients. Thank you for your understanding.^^

K. Bob is a hidden gem in not just the Indoor Market but Luton as a whole, I love eating here as the food is delicious and made with quality ingredients and love for the art of cooking. The prices are fair and the people that own the restaurant are also lovely. If you are in or around the mall please take some time to visit them! You will not be disappointed.

This is one of my favourite places to eat. Every meal has always been delicious and the staff are so polite and caring. I feel like KBob is such an underappreciated gem in Luton. We are very lucky to have an authentic Korean takeaway that is not too expensive! I hope the owners know how much this little place is loved by so many of us! This is a small local business that I would want to continue to support for as long as possible. <3

Me and my friend have been coming to Kbob for 4 years now with myself having eaten here almost a hundred times and we both totally love it (My friend actually now travels to Luton just to eat here) Staff are always very kind, the food is incredibly delicious with well sized portions and reasonable pricing. Whenever i come they have quite a few customers in and out and unlike other places in Luton town the restaurant is totally spick and span. You can really feel the love they have for the restaurant from the food to the decor and greeting of customers. Can’t recommend it enough! ( p.s I miss the gimbap and kimchi fried rice)

I love this place! All the food I tried was super delicious and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The portions are generous, the price is reasonable, the service was outstanding and also hygiene wise, I would give 10/10. Staff was really friendly and I did not have to wait long for my order to be ready. Unlike someone else who said they use plastic containers, for my order some of the containers were made of paper like material. The place looks welcoming. I would certainly come back and also recommend the place to others! They have a wall full of reviews from customers, it is such a lovely place!

I have been looking to try Korean food for a while. Came across this Gem on Google, had no idea it existed. Went ahead with the family and the food was AMAZING! That spicy fried chicken was delicious. The prices are quiet reasonable, portions are just about right and the owners are lovely. If the restaurant was on the high street it would be jam packed . This is my go to lunch place now! Would be coming here quiet often. I hope you can at some point extend the opening hours. Absolutely Zero complaints. And would be revisiting again this Saturday!

The food was delicious, I especially loved the korean fried chicken! It was so sweet and still had a kick of spice. The service was fast and straightforward. After the meal we could write down reviews and stick them on their feedback wall which was such a cute touch! Definitely go and support their business, its worth a try!!

Hidden away in the Luton town market (literally hidden right at the back corner of that place) sits a vibrant Korean restaurant. The place has beautiful lights at the entrance, and a colourful board on the left hand side where customers have filled it with post stick notes of Korean culture. My favourite one being, “Oli London Stans Unite.” The food here is really tasty, however it isn’t that spicy. If you love spicy food make sure you ask them for extra spice! The service here was lovely, the staff were so friendly and so genuine. I’ll be coming back to this place, to support a lovely small business ❤️
Owner response

wow so sweet review. Thank you for your support. Korean really love spicy food, but I don't cook too much spicy coz it's England ^^ Many customers ask me less spicy. I will make it spicier if you ask me extra spicy indeed.^.^ Thank you for the review again.
