43 Best Korean Restaurants in Edmonton

“First time at this iconic Edmonton spot and so mad I didn't try it sooner. 100% vibes - from the line up to order to the decorated paperplates on every surface that isn't (or is) covered in graffiti. Plus, the bulgogi on rice ir with noodles is amazing 🤤 next visit its pizza.

Busy place, not a lot of seating so be ready to make friends or maybe wait for a spot to open if you want to dine in.

Will be back and absolutely taking friends from out of town.“

“Il poom means highest quality in English and let me tell you... They are not kidding. This absolutely excellent Korean food which is super authentic. Everyone should try this wether new to Korean food or a seasoned pro. The broth on the not spicy cold soup (combo meal) l... Could drink it. She even gave me a new bowl of broth to go home with my left over noodles. The service is excellent every time. Try it.. you will not be disappointed!“

“We have been going to Baekjong for a few years now (mostly at their south location until they opened the west location) and we are glad that we finally have a location in the west. Baekjong has never disappointed us in terms of food, taste, portions, quality and service. It has always been top notch and we definitely get our fill for the price we pay. We will always keep coming back as we absolutely love the location, the food and service.“

“I had very good experience Told them that it was my birthday and they gave me cake 🎂 a very good cake Very nice staff very great food I will go there again Thank you for my birthday cake 🎂“

“My favorite new place. Avacado saad with Shrimp is my favorite salad in the city. Spicy ribs are fantastic. The Journal/Sun gave this eatery 5 out of 5 stars. Well deserved.“

“Always delicious and very friendly service! Highly recommend to any who get a chance to stop in. Great value, authentic Korean food.“

“The food is TO DIE FOR. Their tangsuyuk (탕수육) is possibly the best thing I have ever tasted in my life, and I am obsessed with it. I never leave this restaurant without getting an extra order of it to go.

The jjajangmyeon and jjamppong (it has a lot more seafood than I expected - you can't see it in the photo, but there were 2 crab halves buried under the mountain of noodles and soup) are amazing, and I always get either one of those with some tangsuyuk. These 3 dishes are the trifecta, the holy trinity of this restaurant.

I've tried some of their other dishes like their kanpunggi, dumplings, and fried rice, and they were decent, but nothing too special. I found it hard to care, though, because the holy trinity is so good, you don't need anything else.“

“I’m so glad I tried the bulgogi ramen! The beef was so tender and juicy. The ramen broth had a rich depth that complemented the bulgogi without overpowering it. The noodles were chewy, just the way I like them. A great fusion of Korean flavors. I’ll definitely be coming back for this one!“

“Great service! staff are warm, attentive, and always smiling. Food is good, comes out fast, and the portions are generous. We were two people and still couldn’t finish. There are better Korean spots for flavor, but if you just want a quick, satisfying bite, this place is perfect.“

“Two- thumbs up! 👍 Great food and free mini probiotic drink after paying!🥰“

“Me and my best friend came here to eat yesterday, everything tasted amazing and we were so full, the service is really top notch (panda was an awesome sever) really recommend their pork back bone stew it made my evening it was so flavourful, my bestie really enjoyed their sweet n spicy chicken in her words “just 10/10”. We will be back, it was a great evening.“

“The first things I love about is decorating 💕💕💕and food are delicious 🤩🤩🤩I got the food which is I want 🍽🍽🍽love it love it BTW my food name is Ddukbokki 😋😋😋..I will go back there again 100%sure and will take my sister 😍😍“

“man's top notch,only food reviewer i trust in Edmonton.“

“I’ve been here 3 times within 1.5 month because I love the Katsu as it is always fresh and crisp. The restaurant owner was very nice and her crews also very friendly. Today I tried the chicken instead of pork and it was very delicious too. You can have 1 time refill on the salad and soup that is so great. Worth your dollars and they also have buckwheat noodles that fits the summer weather to cool your off from the heat. Will keep visiting 👍🏻“

“I had a great experience at Gangnam Street Food! The place really captures the vibe of authentic Korean street food — lively, casual, and full of flavor. Everything I tried was fresh and delicious, especially the tteokbokki and corn dogs — absolutely amazing! The staff was friendly and helpful, and the service was quick. It’s the perfect spot if you’re craving Korean comfort food. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends!“

“Super cute shop that smelled amazing! The lady at the counter was very kind and took the time to explain what each rice cake was and how to enjoy them. They just happened to have leftovers so we luckily got to try a few before picking, and they were all great! I'll be back for sure :)“

“definitely me and my mom’s go-to place whenever we’re craving Korean food. The food is always so good — the meat is tender, the soup is super tasty, and the prices are just right for the quality you get.

One of the things I love is that there’s almost never a wait, so we can just walk in and enjoy a nice meal without the hassle. The owner is amazing too — always smiling and making you feel welcome. The service here honestly makes the whole experience even better.

If you’re looking for a cozy spot with great food and friendly vibes, I highly recommend giving Jung Korean Restaurant a try. It’s definitely worth it!“

“A great place on campus to get a quick bite. Their lunch specials are super tasty ranging from the bulgogi beef to the spicy pork options with lots of sides to choose from.There kitchen option (which only take a couple minutes longer) are also a great choice. I recommend the kimchi fried rice.I load up on the sesame sauce as a must too!“

“Had such a great time at Ginseng Restaurant with my friends! The food was so good — everything was fresh, flavorful, and came out fast. The vibe of the place was cozy but modern, perfect for catching up and enjoying a chill night out.

We also had the pleasure of meeting their amazing manager, Sang Hee. Super welcoming, attentive, and you can tell they really care about the service and experience. It honestly made our visit feel extra special. Definitely coming back again soon!“

“They do not take reservations, you have to be hungry earlier than 6 pm if you want to make sure you get a seat right away. There is a generous waiting area however.
Our first time here with my family and it was SO GOOD. There were a lot of staff going as fast as they could but they were all friendly and accommodating when we stopped them. You just have to ask.
The manager (?) was very nice from the beginning and at the end the person who took our payment remembered to ask how our dinner was.
I really the atmosphere - not a big place but very modern, bright, and fun. The playlist was not my jam but it was pleasant and fades into the background.
We were seated at a large 6 person booth and it was very comfortable for us. There is only a small round grill at the centre of each table so with all the meat we ordered it took a bit but that was okay since we were a family; it would probably be a bit small if you were with friends though. I'd want my own grill.
We tried most of the items on the menu except for the sushi rolls. Next time I'd like to try those. The steak was a lot bigger than I expected, like almost a full 7 oz and very tender. All of the meat to grill items were excellent. When I saw the volume of the food I was very happy the rest of our order was canceled. It is truly all you can eat and no limit on anything! We ordered so much salmon! The variety of sushi and grilled meats is huge. My 8 and 9 year olds love steak and sushi and this is the most affordable way to do it.
We didn't order much sushi but the salmon was fresh (but cold) and the chop chop (our favorite sushi) was very good. Dessert selection is limited. Only 2 options for ice cream and a tapioca pudding which was very nice.
The spring rolls were different but tasty, a white meat and green cabbage. Ginger beef was yummy. Takoyaki was so-so. Agedashi tofu was good. Crispy scallop was so-so. Beef tataki was very nice.
Our dinner was just under 2 hours long with a little bit of waiting sometimes when we had to ask the server to check on our orders. I loved the ordering system with your phone. It'd be nice if you could see on there if your food was on the way though, ha. Our first sushi order disappeared but it was a good thing because when the first half of our order arrived we realized they were full sized steaks.
Overall our experience was quite enjoyable and we all loved the food. For the quality and the quantity I thought the value could not be beat. I cannot wait to go back and try other things.“

“Comida muy rica y la atención excelente“

“I had this because seniors pizza was way too busy as usual. This food was amazing. The chicken was huge and the sauce was spectacular. the fries were crispy and the portion was amazing. 5 stars. You will not need disappointed.“

“I ordered food via Ubereats and asked them to put chili powder in my soup and chicken, and they did. My ramen's too hot I think it cleared up all of the blockages in my nose lol.

Big portions, savory food, nice packaging.

Thanks!“

“Welcome to Hazeldean! From the decor, to the lattes, to the food, to the staff, everything was fantastic during my visit. A high-end coffee was exactly what our little community needed, adding to the other wonderful local businesses we have in the area. Looking forward to many more breakfasts and brunches in the future.“

“I went to this place with my family and it was so good! We ordered the sundae gukbap and korean pancake. The waiter brought out the food pretty fast and the service was great! I ended up licking the plate clean. If you ever want to go to a Korean restaurant this is your place!!!“

“The food is amazing, the staff is very nice and it is reasonably priced. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a place for date night.“

“The place is nice and very korean. Food serving is good and the staff are so polite And friendly.“

“Amazing juicy and tender Korean style fried chicken. You’re able to mix and match from a good variety of flavours with the same order which I think is a plus. Fries are premium and mozzarella sticks give the cheese pull you’re looking for. Definitely didn’t disappoint. Thank you Dilshad!“

“Really great Korean Fried Chicken and I love the dumplings too!“

“Great staff, karaoke rooms have lots of space. A bit expensive to rent but otherwise nice and great if you have a large group!“

“The first things I love about is decorating 💕💕💕and food are delicious 🤩🤩🤩I got the food which is I want 🍽🍽🍽love it love it BTW my food name is Ddukbokki 😋😋😋..I will go back there again 100%sure and will take my sister 😍😍“

“For quick and convenient Korean food, Koryo delivers consistently. The beef and ribs are flavorful, but the real standout is the potatoes. Coated in a sweet garlic sauce that almost gives them a dessert-like quality, they have an incredible texture. There's pieces that taste like caramel, pieces that taste more savory, it's delicious!“

“😍Best Korean fried chicken!“

“Good food, friendly service, pleasant ambiance.“

“I visited with a friend. Order a menu that I always trust. As expected, cheese tteokbokki tasted like Korean, and tuna gimbap is the best! Ramyun is a menu ordered by my friend, so I took a bite. Satffs are always smile and kindly. I love this place.“

“After return several times AND ordering online, i’ve come to a conclusion that yam yam consistently provides cheap and quality serving sizes every time! it’s a great spot for lunch or after school, and the food tastes delicious! the place is very clean, well decorated and the workers are always very pleasant and even bring the food to the table for me! (which i do not expect since it’s more of a “fast food” or “self serve, seat yourself” setting) i will be ordering regularly“

“Great food and atmosphere“

“ADE taste good love it ... gonna come back again“

“It was my daughter's request to eat here for her birthday dinner. I'm southern, so I'm familiar with fried chicken and corn dogs. The fried chicken was excellent as well as the corn dogs. Had a coconut drink of some sort and it was delicious. Definitely will eat here again.“

“I’ve always loved kokoriko in terwillegar and was so happy to hear that they opened this location which is closer to me. These stars are for kokoriko because Quickly bubble tea is not the best bubble tea. Wish they would partner with dream tea or cocos “

“This restaurant is an absolute gem of a place. Everything is delicious (that I have tried), their bean sprout salad is something I find myself craving lately at night, and I am not a fan of bean sprout salad. Took a couple friends here for their first visit, and my first visit since my Campus St. Jean days, and everything was amazing. Thank you so much for just being awesome, folks!“

“We live in the sticks and my husband had to go to the city today and picked this up on his way home. He stored it in the fridge until dinner and reheated the chicken. The best and freshest salad, we tried the curried fried chicken (amazing) and I had my first real corn fritter! Highly recommend!“

“Ate here this evening. Food was amazing however the waiter was outstanding. Went above and beyond to accommodate our granddaughter. He thought the chicken might be too spicy so he brought her a small portion of non spicy chicken. He gave great suggestions for what to eat. If you want a family friendly restaurant eat here.“
