This is easily one of the hippest restaurants in Silver Spring. I usually go for bowls here, and they are really solid. I really love some of the hot sauce options to, which can be rather tangy as supposed to outright spicy. The cocktails are also solid if one decides to partake. I have never had a bad meal here, and sometimes I outright crave the food they serve.

Unique ( for the downtown area) food, good drinks, and plenty of outdoor seating make this place great for groups and dates. Dogs are welcome outside, and the signature Bibim is work the trip. Crowds are never to much, the music is right, and the food is worth it.

The portions are big and the flavors are good. The place is pretty lively but not incredible. Friendly service but it could be a little faster.

Food is great. Service is a bit slow but good. There were a lot of fruit flys where I was sitting.

Liked it when it was Sligo Cafe. Loving it as Bibim. Went on a chill Monday for dinner, just barely missing happy hour ($6 soju, $5 rail and drafts). My partner and I started with the wings. We did soy garlic but will probably go hotter next time. I had the spicy pork ssam and he built his own bowl. Both were outstanding. Prices seem right. Service was attentive. Would come back for happy hour and patio drinking one afternoon

I enjoyed my meal here. The custom Bi Bim Bap bowls were great - especially for vegetarian and gluten free options. The dumplings (mandu) are perfect. Perfectly fried dumplings - not something you see at every Asian restaurant. The bulgogi was good, and I especially enjoyed the zuchinni fritters - what a fun way to make a gluten free fritter! My only gripe was the service. It was totally fine & acceptable, but it seemed like the staff were getting their feet under them. Tons of potential to improve, and I will definitely go back. But, they didn't bring water to the table, just the drinks we ordered. I'm a water person, so take that FWIW. Overall the service was totally fine, just some room to improve.

We really enjoy having dinner at Bibim in Silver Spring. We often get the build your own Bibim bowl customized to our liking. And the Pa Jeon is excellent as well.

Bibim is Koraen restaurant and they sell Bibimbap, which is one of famous Korean foods. I, myself, as a Korea, tried bibimbap at Bibim. They are nice, but they are not authentic Korean, rather more westernized. Still they are very tasty, but pricey. I may come back again.

The food is great and the happy hour prices are excellent. The happy hour drink specials are decent, but some cocktails are a bit pricey. Several of their entrees looked promising but we stuck to the happy hour menu because it was cheaper and there were many small bites to try.

We were looking for a fabulous spot for my birthday dinner. Well, we certainly found it. Between us we had the brussels sprouts (small portion but yummy), the chicken pot pie which was perfectly made ... not too crusty and the sauce was to die for, grilled rockfish (cooked to perfection) over cauliflower puree and haricot vert and cornish hen over wild rice. Meals came out hot and all at the same time. Staff and owner are incredibly friendly and hospitable. In fact, when the owner learned it was my birthday, he insisted that we have the inside out S'mores Brownie on the house!! Although I live in Falls Church, I will definitely make the trip over to Silver Spring to try some of the other items on the menu.

Great addition to the neighborhood. The mussels and carrot ginger bisque were divine. Can't wait to go back.
