This place reminds me of my hometown in San Dimas, you have all these stores and restaurants, and you may not know a great place like this exists! We just finished a check up for my kid in the area and wanted to try something new. After reading multiple yelp comments we decided to give this place a try togo. The lady that took my order on the phone was nice and made sure my questions were answered.FoodSo the food here reminds me of some other fusion places, but they make it quite tasty. We tried the bimbimbop and pork belly bowl and the Gogi Fries. The fries were ok, but I particularly liked both of the bowls. You get to choose brown or white rice and they both come with a good amount of Vegatables inside from bak choi to kale, while having very flavorful protein.The place was nice and clean, but isn’t that big so I wouldn’t recommend big parties to come in to eat. If I am in the area I would definitely stop by again! Until next time !

Been here a few times and usually they’re pretty good, today however I found a pebble in my bowl. I was chewing when I felt something really hard, good thing I didn’t break a tooth. Safe to say I won’t be coming back.

Amazing, amazing, amazing!!! Unsuspecting place with food that blew my mind. This was probably the best food (out of all cuisines) Ive had in a while.... Flavors are out of this world! Well prepared, super fresh, creative combinations... will definitely be back

Bulgogi was my first dish from Flying Rice. I asked that the egg be scrambled, as runny yolk is not my thing.Very good flavors, enjoyed it and atethe whole thing.Friendly counter service was provided and I would recommend that everyone try the place. It’s definitely more take out than dine in.

Vegan Tofu Bibimbap bowl, Beef Bibimbap, and KFC bowl were delicious. No. I did not eat all 3. I did get to taste them all though! The portions and big enough to share, inexpensive, and has great flavors. I really could have stopped eating 1/3 of the way, but it was sooo yummy 😋

I ordered the kimchi fried rice for myself and the bulgogi bowl with brown rice for my husband. O.M.Gosh. YUM! I make eggs and rice at home for my family almost every weekend, most people think its weird. I LOVE that they put eggs on their rice, here. I cant wait to try everything on their menu. The only thing was my hubbys bulgogi bowl was a little oily. Were hoping that was just a one time thing :) I will definitely be back.

I have lived in La Verne my whole life, and never have I ever seen this place. What an extraordinary place. Excellent food and amazing customer service. I ordered the Pork Belly bowl and it was so perfect that I know for a fact I’ll be coming back very soon. My mother ordered the KFC and it truly deserves to be one of their most popular dishes. I will recommend this place to everyone and I already have to all my local friends!

The rice porridge is great for cold weather. If you are craving for something healthy, quick, and tasty. This is the placeAlso, their spicy ramen hits the spot too. Dont expect a fancyz japanese ramen but very good.

Ive tried so many bowls before from different places but this place never disappoints no matter what you order. I know flavors vary from bowl to bowl but Im not even talking about flavors because you really cant compare with others since everyone does it differently. Im talking about the way they cook it. Perfect rice texture, perfect amount of sauce they put, perfect crispness of veggies. I can try any bowl variation and I know I wont go wrong.

Everything we had was EXCELLENT! I love the KFC (Korean Fried Rice). The brown rice and all of the toppings are perfectly prepared. Everything is fresh & the sauces have great flavor.

My employees were bringing this back for lunch often and I didt get the fried egg on top...or frankly any of it. Until I tried it.The beef bugogi is as delicious as anything Ive eaten at any price. I get it with brown rice and the brown sauce they offer on the side. Garlic soy I think?Im watching Shark Tank and see a company named Cupbop selling something like what Flying is doing and expanding. You need to meet a good venture capital guy and franchise this.

Great KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) and Pork Belly bowls. Their KFC is made with boneless white meat chicken pieces with a seasoned batter and dressed with spicy mayo. While the pork belly is super tender and crazy flavorful. Their food isnt salty either. Good size portions. You cant see them from the street though. Hidden gem inside the CVS plaza. The owners are a great couple and the husband heads up the kitchen and cooks everything.

The Bowls were colorful, full of asst. vegetables, fried egg, tender cooked meat, brown or white rice and a choice of six different sauces. Choose your level of spice from wimpy American to Korean oh my God hot. We will definitely go back for more. This is a new restaurant serving Korean Asian food specializing in pork belly, bibibop and other delectable healthy Korean dishes. Lunch and dinner service. Walk up to the counter to order your food have a seat in the delightful waitress will bring it to you and tell you about the different sauces they have available to go with your tasty Bowl. You will not be disappointed.

Really cool staff. Interesting range of Korean-based Asian fusion. We had the pork belly bowl and the cheesy kimchi gogi fries. Many of their sauces are made in house. Add some dukbokki to the menu, please. Recommended.

The pork belly bowl is very tasty. So are the fries with kimchi. The prices are a bit on the high side, but once in a while wont hurt. Do reccomend trying it.

The cheesy kimchi bulgogi fries were soggy, only found 5 tiny pieces of bulgogi, and wheres the kimchi? This yummy confection of Korean fusion kogi food trucks was a big disappointment! It is not ready for prime time or the chef has to go over with his kitchen staff with how it should be prepared. Fortunately, the pork belly bowl and complimentary chicken congee saved me from a hangry meltdown.
