It's great for the Cal student cramming for an exam, but if Chipotle can consistently serve hot food, I'm sure MS can too.It will remain on my list for now.BB

Mainly because the rice, which is the base for the dish is very overcooked and very mushy. What a shame. Also, the sauce is so light and lightly put on that it does nothing for the dish. For someone that enjoys bibimbap on a regular, unfortunately I can't say this is the best place. Maybe I'll try again in the future, but it's hard when you're spending so much money for their menu items... I guess I expect a lot more for the price point. The ambiance and environment is very well appreciated though. And also the customer service.Update: I tried to eat through it since I'm hungry and need to eat food but now I'm just upset about it lol. Going further into the dish, some parts are very inconsistent such as the meat being salty in certain bites, just not satisfied at all. I'll have to bring this down to 1 star because I don't think I'll be coming back unfortunately. For a place that looks like such quality, I think they need to work a little harder on maintaining standards consistently. I'm reading reviews here that are very up and down.
