29 Best Korean Restaurants near Carmichael

“Living in Carmichael for about year and a half, after living in Chicago (.a place that knows a little bit about chicken wings), this is my go to place for chicken wings. Not whole like Chicago.“

“The good amazing as well as the staff and service. I'm not sure if this is home cooked meals but holy cow did it taste like it. The complementary sweet tea is ridiculously good and addicting they should bottle and sell it so I can drink it everyday.“

“Very good food. Friendly staff“

“We had the beef mandu dumplings and rice cakes soup & the pork bulgogi. Both were excellent, the service was friendly, efficient and helpful, and the place is very clean. The portions were big enough to take home a second meal. Great all around.“

“By far the best KBBQ I've been to. This is my comparison to several in Sac like OZ, and in San Francisco. It is pricey but if you can eat, it's well worth it. Sides are the best here but careful not to eat too much of it haha. The Meat were of the best quality compared to the other places.“

“I always enjoy my visits here. The staff is genuinely friendly and attentive, which makes every experience pleasant. If you prefer a relaxed meal, coming earlier in the day is a great idea since it is quieter. In the evening it gets quite busy because it is so popular, so making a reservation is definitely recommended.“

“This was my first time visiting this place. The seating area is spacious. I came in in early dinner and luckily it was not busy yet. Best jja jang myun in sacramento. The jja jang myun had that perfect balance of savory and slightly sweet, with chewy noodles and for me the sauce was lighter than other places I’ve been too.

Service was quick and friendly , and everything. Came out hot and fresh. The place is clean casual and definitely worth stopping by if you are craving solid Korean Chinese comfort dishes.“

“We had a 33rd birthday party for our son, his band and groupies, party of 11. The mgt Kien/Kenny was very accommodating with our reservation, running a slide show in our private room and the lobby while our guests arrived. The seafood pancakes, desert, and spinning the prize wheel were unexpected treats. Some may think it's pricey but when I consider that for the price I would pay for a basic Rib Eye dinner elsewhere, I can have as much Rib Eye, as well as a variety of other meats, chicken, shrimp, sides as I can possibly eat, it's very reasonable. Most of our group were 1st timers, so the cultural experience of new foods, cooking at your table the way you like, made for a unique experience. Our group of 20 something yr old punk rockers had a lot of fun, the service and food were excellent. We'll be back...ps. call ahead to gauge the crowd and bring an appetite.“

“Steak & Rubs were fantastic.“

“Returned after several years and I am thrilled that the quality has remained intact. The aunties on staff were as warm and kind as I remembered them. The dishes are delicious 😋. You cannot go wrong with anything on their menu but we had Bimbimbap , spicy beef soup and kimchi fried rice this time. Their galbi Jim is also delicious. Last but not least is their lettuce Kimchi. No one does it better IMO. Best Authentic Korean food in Sac IMO ☺️🙌🏾“

“Went there today with my daughter. Service was attentive warm and prompt. The Bachan side dishes were good. We ordered beef soup, corn mozzarella and another dish, don’t remember the name but they were all delicious ! Flavorful and good portion. I’m not from the area but I would make a trek again to eat here.“

“food and slushies 10/10!!! The only downside was the wait it took 30 minutes to get food.“

“Simply a marvelous surprise. Could well have been the tastiest restaurant meal I’ve ever eaten… it was that good.“

“So far, I have tried the following gimbap, spicy pork, beef bulgogi, and the seoul 1979. Didn't like the seuol one - not enough ham it so you cant really taste it. The beef bulgogi is good, but I loved the spicy pork one. Good flavor and has a little kick to it. I also tried the korean corn dog, and it was ok. I didn't like the sausage inside. Service is friendly. They have a lot of different items to try so definitely will be back.

Update: Went back again and I finally tried a different dish which as the chicken kansu curry which was so good. Chicken was super crispy and not dry. Comes with a side of curry, cabbage and rice. All.of ot was yummy!“

“I've been to this place many of many a times and I will continue to come here it's an amazing Vibe and the food is absolutely phenomenal the staff is always super positive and welcoming I recommend this place to anyone and everyone with a sense of good taste buds.“

“First time here and I loved it so much. The seatings are with benches and a little tight but still decently roomy. There’s a lot of writing on the wall as you can write on it. The bathroom doesn’t flush as I held it down for 20secs and more like followed on the instruction in the bathroom. The food here is sooo flavorful and aromatic. I literally fell in love with my food. The rice was like Thai purple sticky rice just not sticky and I love that even more. My food was just not as tender as I’d like it to be but still good. I love the broth it came in and everything. My boyfriend had the tofu rice plate and that was pretty mid as I felt like they could’ve stir fry the tofu into the meat. Plus you can make this at home which didn’t feel very restaurant-y. The water was ice cold and they give it to you in a jug. Also offer barley tea but I did not drink it. Service was well, just like any other server.

(same review by me on Yelp)“

“The food left a very positive impression and the portion sizes felt well worth the price. Everything tasted fresh and satisfying, especially the teriyaki chicken, which stood out as one of the best I have had. It is a place I would happily visit again and recommend to anyone nearby.“

“Good experience, most of our dishes were pretty good and the side dishes were tasty. The bulgogi and teriyaki chicken were our favorites: good flavor and portion size with each. The fried chicken was just okay; not super flavorful unless it was a piece drenched in sauce and lost its crispness very quickly. My father was very disappointed with his soup, while the flavor wasn’t bad the seafood was pretty minimal - just a few smallish pieces; while it’s just meant for one person and not the most expensive thing there definitely could have been more.“

“Von’s Chicken in Rancho Cordova is such a great find! The chicken is always hot, crispy, and full of flavor — you can really taste the quality and freshness. The Soy Garlic and Original Crispy are my go-tos, but the Hot & Spicy hits the spot when you want a little extra kick. Don’t skip the baked chicken as it’s perfect if you want something lighter but still packing tons of flavor.

The sides and starters are just as good — especially the cheeseballs and sodduck sodduck. Portions are generous, and even the takeout stays crunchy and delicious.

The staff here are super friendly and attentive — they take the time to explain the different sauces and flavors, and it’s clear they care about their customers having a great experience.

Overall, Von’s Chicken is consistently excellent — fresh, flavorful, and served with genuine hospitality. Definitely one of my favorite go-to spots in Rancho Cordova!“

“I tried the hot stone Bibimbap here and it was DELICIOUS. The house sauce was really good, I also loved the greens and fresh vegetables and tofu. Their kimchi was also very good, too! Even the presentation of the meals looked beatiful. The lady working there was very friendly and sweet. The prices are also good for what I'm getting Highly reccomend eating here!“

“This a real Korean fried chicken. It pricey but you will never expect the taste of these magic fried chick !! It is so addictive writing comments make me so hungry this place reminds me of Korean k-drama place where u sit and eat those friends chick with your crush !! ^v^
Recommended green onion soy flavor , sweet honey butter powder .“

“NEVER had anything substandard here. Our entire family regularly dines here for lunches (with the grandchildren & their friends after school); and family dine-out night (weekly). We LOVE the tofu AND the Salmon Bento. Huge portions! ??????????“

“My son and I went for dinner tonight. This review is from my 10 year old : "The staff was great and the food was great. My favorite food is sushi and and the beef was so good. It was almost better than sushi and I fairly like sushi, and I really liked that they had so many varieties of food. There were so many kinds of sushi that I've never seen before. And there there was at least one thing for everyone." He has officially requested this restaurant for "every birthday forever".Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Tried this place while visiting the UCD campus. Great food, my only complaint was a little to much mayo for my liking but the serving size and quality was great. Overall the experience was great. The nice lady at the front makes the business feel warm and welcoming. Please support local businesses like this.“

“very nice wine and teppanyaki grilled food right in front of you!“

“Loved our first visit here. My husband and I both got bento boxes and our niece got a roll and gyoza. The food was so fresh and tasty. I got the short ribs and chicken teriyaki. The short ribs were so tender and flavorful. Some of the best I've had. We loved the revolving sushi and little plates. We enjoyed the mochi and macarons. Everyone was so friendly. The chef came out to greet us and chat with us. We really loved the experience and food. We will definitely be back.

Editing to add we have now been back several times and the food quality continues to be at its peak. This is our new favorite place.“

“I went here for the first time and honestly it is such a cool idea! The staff was great about taking empty containers off our table and the all you can eat was worth it! Our server Kyle was awesome, super attentive, and helped us pick out the best meats for our BBQ experience. My friends and I will continue to come back!“

“We ordered 12 pieces of boneless chicken, half soy-glazed and crunchy. The chicken wasn’t dry and tasted good. Also, we ordered their chicken fried rice with soy glazed; the rice was flavorful, and my toddler ate a lot.

They have everything to go, but you can still dine in, they provide plastic utensils and paper plates if you happen to sit there. They have small wipes too. The restaurant was clean. The plaza has many parking spaces available.“

“Big place to celebrate birthday“
