24 Best Korean Restaurants near Hayward

“I ordered the kimbap, Bulgogi Plate, and tteokbokki. Each dish was sizable and very filling. The Tteokbokki was hot to handle so be careful. Their restaurant is small and doesn't have in door seating but out door seating is fine in these summer days. The kimbap I enjoyed very much but wish there was some sauce to pair up. The bulgogi plate was massive and definitely can be shared.“

“Nice hidden gem, legit Korean cuisine. All the locals know about this spot. Good eats, good prices, good service. They give many banchan items, I got half Daeji Bulgogi + Dak Gui (Spicy Pork + Grilled Chicken) and Seafood Pancake. Also pictured is Combo with Bulgogi + Soondubu Jjigae (Spicy Beef + Soft Tofu Stew. DEFINITELY give it a try, they don't disappoint“

“Han Yang is a great place to sit down for dinner and enjoy some truly delicious Korean food. One thing I always note about a restaurant is the patronage and Han Yang appeared to host a largely local Korean community of diners and to me that signals authenticity. And the food shows it- the selection of banchan is delectable and meat are delicious and perfectly marinated (recommending dwegi bulgogi or kalbi). I appreciated that you could get the meats cooked at your table or in the kitchen... I left it up to the chef and everything was prepared to perfection. I also tried and loved the seafood pancake and bibim nangmyeon. We were also greeted by warm and attentive service. I felt at home eating here. I recommend giving this place a try because it may be my favorite local spot for Korean food now. Thank you!“

“The Korean fried chicken was delicious. The staff was a big help. They helped me pick out a good bottle of cold sake.“

“Man, this spot just started serving bubble tea! I grabbed the Thai tea with boba today, and it’s seriously good. Highly recommend it. The flavor’s legit. Service is on point, and everything’s made fresh. Hands down, my go-to fried chicken joint in the Bay Area!“

“Forgot to take photos but this place is ahmazing. The kimbab was perfectly rolled. All the ingredients were fresh and in right proportions.
I got the spicy beef and it was very tasty. My partner got the LOR and he loved it also. Also, it’s a lot of food. We had to take half to go.
The lady was super nice and got us an extra treat at the end. Definitely coming back.“

“Overall, the side dishes were clean and the food was delicious, including budae jjigae, kimchi stew, seafood and green onion pancakes, and stir-fried pork.

The store was clean and the dining table was nice.
Group dining is possible for families, and the service is friendly and good.“

“AMAZING. SO SO GOOD. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, with generous portions and very well priced, but the owner was so incredibly kind, funny, and sweet. They were able to seat us, a party of 8, so last minute and made us laugh the entire time! We had such an amazing time here, and will be come back!!!“

“Food here is so yum. Place is small and clean w/ friendly staff. It's a self-seeking restaurant so you order at a kiosk and they'll bring out the food on a counter and you get your own disposable utensils/cups/trays. The price is really good, especially since I feel like good quality Korean restaurants tend to be $17+ a dish but here everything is pretty much either $13 or $14 which is really good. The portions don't LOOK huge but my two friends and I were full w/ some leftovers afterwards. We got the vegetarian jajangmyeon, rose tteokbokki, and soy sauce Korean fried chicken. All were very yummy and I recommend. Definitely want to come back here and eat more!“

“We went on a Sunday night, it was around 7:45pm when people had already dined and were leaving. We were immediately seated and greeted by their friendly staff! They have those little side dishes called bon chan and my favorite was the marinated potato. The bus boy was so good, kept checking in on us and super kind! I would totally go back. Service was excellent, food was pretty good and restaurant atmosphere is good for casual dining.“

“Korean fusion street food where nothing on the item is over $10?? In this economy?? Sign us up!! 🥪🍚✨

“first time having korean soups, so i have nothing to compare it to, but i loved everything i've had so far. i would go back just for the rice & side dishes!

favorites: ox bone soup, seafood sundubu, seafood pancake, any beef bulgogi dish.

i heard it gets busy on weekends so i go in the early evening on weekdays.

the cold noodle broth has a fruity spicy flavor that reminded me of mexican tamarind candy, which sounds strange but it was so refreshing on a hot day!

all the seafood is so well cooked. the squid & octopus & mussel is not rubbery at all, very tender!“

“This place is great when you want food that’s healthy. I get their tofu soup often, and I’m grateful it’s not as salty as other korean restaurants while still having that amazing umami.

Not saying it’s plain and meant to be “health” food, but it’s just rare to find a restaurant to me that serves food I feel like I could eat on a regular basis. Usually when I get tofu soup I add water to it but with this restaurant I don’t have to do that. I also like how they add a large amount of tofu.“

“The first time here was back in 2022. Decided to try the place out one more time, but to dine in.

We were seated quickly as there were plenty of tables. Parking was plentiful, too.

The food came out relatively quickly. We found the entries to be quite a bit for the price. The flavors were okay, too. The service was not bad.

Overall, 4 stars.

Parking: The area had some sketchy homeless people walking about. Best keep valuables out of sight in your car.“

“Great food ! Wings are definitely meh if you’re expecting Korean fried chicken level wings. This is not a Korean fried chicken place. Also had a bibimbap bowl - highly recommend it. Problem is place is a bit pricey - if your a hearty eater like me expect to pay 40$+ (per person)“

“One word delicious! Pork rib is perfect. Great amount flavor, char and deliciousness. Definitely get this. It’s very legit.

Loved all the appetizer it gave us. So much food! Every dish was very good except not a big fan of broccoli.

I got the bbq pork rib & spicy cold noodles. Cold noodles was so good.

Yum yum. Highly recommended. The staffs are working hard and their best. There are so many customers and it can get hard to keep up with the demand. It may require a bit of wait for the food to come but you won’t regret it though!

Parking: Free parking.“

“We had a wonderful lunch at World Wrapps. We had the Argentina Chimichurri with steak and salmon wrap, and it was delicious. We also tried the Thai Chicken bowl, which was also delicious. It came with sushi rice, cucumber, slaw, sesame seeds, peanut sauce and other fresh ingredients. The portions are large and we found the prices to be very reasonable. I took half of the wrap home for another meal. The service was excellent and everyone who worked there was very friendly and attentive. We highly recommend World Wrapps for delicious wraps and bowls, made with fresh, healthy ingredients. We will definitely go back to try more of their entrees.“

“Inside of the food hall, there are three stalls. Capture for coffee, YaDaebak! for appetizer, breakfast, or entree, and Smochi for mochi donut. The black sesame latte was so good! We got the Egg & Bulgogi breakfast rice bowl from YaDaebak and for $9, portions were generous and delicious. For a person that has always been meh about mochi don't, got a new perspective and experience through their chocolate with white chocolate swirl. The staffs are really nice and if you don't know what to get, just ask. Love the cleanliness of the space, too.“

“Ordered some wings (garlic soy) and plain with a couple of hot sauces, bulgogi fries, and the gangjung. I enjoyed most of the choices but found that the unsauced wings with dipping sauces were better than the others which were a bit too sweet. Chicken was nice and crunchy while not being too dry. The gangjung was solid. The bulgogi fries were straight fire though damn. We ordered eggs with our fries because eggs, and while they added to the fries, we wish they were runny eggs rather than fried to hard yolks, it definitely would be better as such.“

“Best jajang around“

“I came here, thinking it was Japanese food, but it blew me out of water when we tasted the quality of food, the kindness of the host the atmosphere
He deserves gold medal for how nice and kind to customers not just us. I know it was the same to all the other patrons.
Especially
The food pictures doesn’t do justice versus the taste fresh meat first serve quality food. I recommend this place.“

“Staff here is very kind but the star of the show is the food. The wings are great and larger in size than most places. It also looks like the San Francisco Chronicle mentioned this place is one of the best stops in the Bay Area for wings mentioned along hallowed restaurants such as San Tung.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Parking: There is parking in the back“

“food is delicious .friendly staff .we will definitely recommend and we will come back .amazing simple ambiance.we love it.“

“Lovely little restaurant with the most attentive staff and delicious food. I got some crispy Yang-nyum chicken and it was heavenly. Best Korean fried chicken place I’ve ever been to. The owners are so friendly and make the entire experience so much “
