This is a great place for those who love & know Korean food. It's all home made with no fancy atmosphere here. But we didn't enjoy this type of food and if you have never had korean food then go some place else! It's not anything you would expect and I don't see what the big deal here is.... more

It was really good! It's mostly Korean food. Yum. It just took a long time to get the food, but that was ok. It was worth it. more

Love this place. Food is excellent & owners are wonderful. We just couldn't say enough good things about Blue Cactus. Vegan friendly, in case you were wondering :) BeBim Bop, curry tofu, clear noodle stir fry...dang! If Julie's rude to you, you had it coming. more

The best!

Fantastic. Asian, Mexican fusion. The actual restaurant is kinda drab and often it takes awhile to get your food but it is well worth the wait. more

I went here seeing all of the good reviews with about 8 friends and it just wasn't good. The lady taking orders seemed mad because we were taking our time and enjoying conversation instead of immediately giving her our order. Also the food just isn't very good. One of my close friends who was with us is Korean and really... more

Honestly this is THE GEM of 5 Points and all of Columbia in my opinion. The Blue Cactus is owned and operated by a husband and wife duo who have to be some of the nicest people you will ever meet. Not to mention the food is pretty darn good also. If you are in the mood for something authentic... more
