50 Best Korean Restaurants near La Habra

“YEDANG is my go-to spot whenever I crave authentic Korean food! The staff here is always attentive. Their side dishes (banchan) were all super fresh and delicious! (Especially loved their japchae & muk) The crab was fresh and the marinade was just right - usually I can't finish a whole crab because it's too salty at other places, but here I could enjoy the whole thing! While it's a bit pricey for the portion size, the quality makes it worth trying. Located in a plaza with parking, though it can get busy at times. The spacious dining area makes it great for family dinners!“

“Food: 4*
Service: 5*
Ambiance: 5*

Stopped by here with a colleague. We ordered the $19.99 lunch special. He offered to give us a mix of all the different meats on this menu so we could try them. There are specific ban chan you can get like Kimchee, fish cake, potato salad etc. The service was great, very attentive, helpful and friendly. I will return with a larger appetite.“

“Loved the crispy chicken wings, cheese corn and the two different pizzas that we ordered.“

“Outstanding chicken recipes and boba milk tea is to die for !“

“Food was delicious Hot Amazing we will return 💯 Thank You 😊“

“So am not from this area but I do come this way to pick up something Around here and I love tempura from the outside doesn’t look like much is a nice small place once inside they have a medium amount of choices the price is not that bad I love the veggie tempura and the California rolls, but they do carry other stuff including macaroon ice cream! I’ve gone 3 times now in a month and so far the taste remains the same except yesterday I felt that they didn’t give me the usual amount of veggies but overall the food is good and not pricey!I also noticed sketches on the wall and a folder on the counter am assuming those are from a local artist I believe you can purchase them!“

“Wow, a hidden gem! I've never had chicken cooked this way and the flavors! The 'hot' was really good and large portions for the price! Smartly decorated with a woman's touch - and service that aims to please. Very nice place for lunch - Looking forward to going back!“

“This seems to be Korean owned Japanese restaurant and this can be hit or miss, but I’ve been here twice now and the fish is super fresh! Based on the couple of times I’ve been here, the food is yummy, the place is spacious and clean and the service was great as well. Would highly recommend.“

“I don't know if I had high expectations or if the chef didn't show up during lunch time, but I was recommended cold noodles and pork cutlet, but I think they were below average.

The overall atmosphere was good and the side dishes were delicious, but the main dish was lacking. The taste of galbi cold noodles cannot be missed, but the ribs seem to have lost their flavor and the cold noodles leave a lot to be desired.

The soybean paste stew was really bad.
I don’t know how to make this soybean paste stew.
It can't be without taste @.@

The servers are friendly and the service is good.“

“First time to my sound chicken with friends the service was excellent , she (the Manager) is very friendly and helpful. The fired chicken are so good crunchy and the french fried so tasty. Definitely will come back highly recommend . A+++++“

“Yangmani Korean BBQ delivers an incredible dining experience with its high-quality meats and flavorful tofu soup. The marinated short ribs are tender and delicious, while the tofu soup is rich and perfectly spiced. The fresh banchan and attentive service make the meal even more enjoyable. For a cozy and satisfying Korean BBQ experience, Yangmani is a great choice!“

“A place where I could soothe my stomach with Korean food when I felt tired of American food.
There is a 90 minute time limit
You can freely order from the menu during any given time. However, the menu may be limited depending on the type of set requested.
While we were eating, we had birthday parties at 4 tables (including ours haha).
You can hear Kpop and taste a variety of meats in a lively atmosphere.
The waiting line may be long during meal times, so be sure to make a reservation before visiting.“

“GREAT food!!!! They're fairly new, so I hope they don't compromise on flavor later down the line. First, I had their small chicken katsu box. The second time, I had their new sweet chili shrimp katsu, and that was even better!!!!! Employees are always so friendly and for the quality of the food the price and turnaround time is worth it. Highly recommend“

“I am a first-generation Korean who visits Korea often. This place has become our go-to spot for Korean food (my husband who is 5th generation Californian).
- Tasty: Even my picky 80 years old uncle loves their food.
- Fresh ingredients: No frozen, no old ingredients
- They don't cut corners. For instance, one of favorite Korean dishes is stir-fried squid (calamari), which HamaHippo makes exceptionally well (try it with noodles if you can take gluten) - tasty and generous with the portion of squid. They close on Sunday but I needed to go out for a dinner, so I went to my former go-to Korean restaurant and ordered the same dish. Most of the dish was noodle with very little, not-well thawed squid. After visiting my former go-to Korean restaurant, I appreciate the food quality of HamaHippo even more. Another example, when you order Bibimbap, you will get variety of fresh, generous portion of vegetables.
- Super reasonable prices, especially considering how fresh the ingredients are.

Vegetarian options: I am a pescatarian. The owner says they can make any dish vegetarian-friendly, even vegan. For example, in my case, when I ordered Bibim Naeng Myun in a hot day, I asked if it was vegetarian. They usually use beef broth for the sauce but accommodated my dietary choice by bringing the beef broth separately, which my friend enjoyed. The dish was delicious.“

“Atoyubu is a cool fusion restaurant specializing in these cute tofu pockets of rice and choice of topping. I got the fresh salmon, bulgogi, butter crab, and spicy tuna (this was so spicy omg). Definitely not an on the go kinda meal because sauce gets everywhere and it’s best eaten right away because it can get soggy real quick!

Prices are fair at $4-5 each. The line can get pretty long but food is out within minutes. Parking also sucks as it is really small.“

“Shawn, the actual business operator is very professional, with a positive personality.
Every time I come to visit his establishment, he makes the chicken tender to its perfection, and his chicken is amazing...
He's got a home-style Cole Slaw that you'll love...
His menu has a large variety, and I guarantee you that the seasonings and the quality will be to your expectation!!!

Thank you Shawn...“

“It's a simple but very satisfying restaurant! As the name suggests, the main dish is a combination of rice and soup, and the gentle seasoning that brings out the flavors of the ingredients is appealing. We especially recommend the soup rice, which has plenty of ingredients and is perfectly balanced and nutritious. It's filling, but not heavy, and it leaves you feeling warm and warm even after you've finished eating. The inside of the restaurant is clean and has a calm atmosphere, so it's perfect for when you want to have a quick meal by yourself. This is a restaurant that can be recommended for those who are health conscious! Please try it!“

“I love wings! So when a Coworker brought me to this place and I was a bit skeptical but was ultimately blown away. They didn't have the flavors I'm used to but the ones they did have were terrific!
First time trying sweet and spicy and first time trying Mango Cart beer. The mix was delicious can't wait to go back.

Parking: Shared Plaza parking, had no issue finding a sopt right in front on a Friday evening.“

“Excellent service ! We ordered the large beef combo for 2 and it was more than enough. Very good quality.“

“Oden soup is super delicious & not spicy which is original style- i am Japanese/Korean - because LA chef came this location??
Fried chicken smaller than LA Hanshin pocha so more good & yammy - in old Korean / Japanese style we prefer Hen rather than chicken. DIY rice ball so so good !! Tomato Eggs is also good( hard to make it in Home)but always tomato sauce side is better. I can’t eat spicy foods because Paik’s spicy foods r really spicy so not try with me.

Vegetarian options: Many Seafood menu but spicy

Parking: Lunch time weekday is ok
But dinner time & weekend crazy parking“

“I tried their BOSSAM and Seafood Pancakes. Both were delicious!! The side food was so good too. Especially the kimchi. I feel like their foods are very tasty and fresh. I want to come back soon again.

The service was okay, there was only one person handling the hall. And we had to wait a little. Not saying it was bad but it could be better if there was another person helping.“

“Tasty food, great atmosphere!“

“The kimbap 10/10
Teokbokki was really watery so if you like urs thicker prolly not from here. But the rice cakes were really nice and soft.
Chicken very good and crispy
We got fries w our idk if it was on purpose but very gratefull“

“I'm not going to say this is an authentic experience -- Craft Bowl is to Korean food as Chipotle is to Mexican food. But it doesn't take away from the fact that the food is delicious in its own right and the value is insane. I'm so used to take out prices being eye popping lately that craft Bowl is a breath of relief.

Chili cheese tteokboki was a guilty pleasure: chewy crispy American Korean fusion dish.
The popcorn chicken bowl was really surprisingly good -- I did not think those ingredients would work together but they did. Chef definitely cooked here.
I'll be back to try the chicken bulgogi bowl.“

“I came to hungry bull dog restaurant in diamond bar and it was soo good. I ordered a few dishes like the k style corn dog with pepper jack cheese and sausage, katsu with side of curry, bulgogi beef bulldog bowl, and lastly.. the kimchi fried rice. It was so much food and I loved eating inside their cute restaurant.“

“Ib is an incredible server and always is attentive to my table. He’s super friendly and made the night a good time. Food was great and soju was great as always. The vibe here is amazing and everyone should try it for sure! 100% recommend!“

“This place is absolutely amazing!! The food is so good and the people working there are the most friendliest I've ever met!!! I'm definitely coming back here for more food!!! 5 stars!!!“

“Mr BBQ is probably one of the best All You Can Eat Korean BBQ spots you can eat at in Southern California. The whole place has an upbeat and fun vibe. It's a great place for celebrating or having a party, or just as a fun place to go. All of the portions and sides are generous and high quality. The servers are attentive and make everyone feel welcomed (especially on their birthday)

The beef brisket is thin sliced, and unbeatable. Bulgogi is exceptional here, also. They also have a fantastic selection of drinks, especially the craft beer selection they offer.

There is a free parking lot, but at peak hours, it can be hard to find parking. It's not really a problem since you can park on a nearby street and walk over. Can't say enough good things. Its also just extra fun that they always keep up with the seasonal decorations throughout the year.

Vegetarian options: Its possible to make a vegetarian meal here. There are vegetables and other side dishes that can be grilled to make a pretty filling meal.

Dietary restrictions: Its easy to be selective about what you want since you cook it yourself.

Parking: Sometimes parking can be hard to find at peak hours. There is residential parking near by.

Kid-friendliness: Definitely a family-friendly atmosphere

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible parking and access.“

“tasty!

A traditional Korean family restaurant, the side dishes can have a homemade flavor that is different from other restaurants.

The food was served slowly, and there was unlimited rice for free. I ordered two extra bowls of spicy fried pork rice! Delicious and filling“

“Excellent food and friendly staff!!“

“On my birthday this past weekend, my husband and I dined at the K-Food Express while in Cerritos and we were beyond impressed! The service was exceptional nice. The food was absolutely delicious- the dishes were packed with flavor, and we could tell that everything was freshly prepared. Each bite was a delight! The portions were very generous, leaving us both satisfied and full.
We truly enjoyed every dish we tried, and it's safe to say we will definitely be returning for more. If you are looking for authentic, mouthwatering Korean food, excellent service with the reasonable price, this place is a must visit.“

“I would like to say thank you to the owner and staff , they are really honest and nice people, thank you for giving me back my $100 bill that unknowingly drop on the floor yesterday and got it back today even though you don’t know who lost it you kept it and made sure the owner will get it back., we always eat here dine in and take out because the food is always freshly cooked and so so authentically good. Affordable yet delicious 🙏❤️😋😋😋😋 감사합니다 😊“

“good food and staff friendly with always attentive to us customers. very quick always ready to replenish your plates“

“This is a soondubu (spicy silky soft tofu soup) restaurant like BCD chain. You can order combo menu with a meat or fish entree with a version of soondubu soup. You can select the spicy level and toppings for the soup. I thought the soup is really good but the meat dishes except for the LA rib were too sweet. Ban Chan (side dishes) were just average. For Diamond Bar I think this outlet is fine. There is plenty of parking in the shopping mall lot.

Parking: Plenty

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s on the ground floor with wheelchair ramp.“

“The taste of the food in this place is really delicious, I have returned too many times and I never tire of trying the tofu soups that offer without a doubt the best place for you to choose to go to eat alone or with your family, the service is super nice I give it 10/10“

“My first time and very satisfied. I ordered pork soup with rice and it is soooooo good!“

“My husband comes here on his lunch breaks and I finally got to try it the other day! Omgoodness ♥️ first off the ladies running this are so nice and have Ah-mazing cooking skills! We ordered 2 teriyaki chicken bowls ( for a decent price ❤️) and the chicken was SO tender and delicious! The teriyaki sauce is bomb 💣 and rice was delicious!!! It was so good I craved more fir days after!!! We came bk a few days later and ordered the same 2 bowls and my son got the spicy chicken plate! 🔥🔥🔥 Once again they didn't disappoint, it all was VERY tasty and delicious! I got a banana smoothie for the ride home, but it didn't last long, it was yum yum yummmy!!! ❤️ Thank you 52M for keeping it real with delicious and authentic food for a decent price! It's a new family favorite and worth the drive for us!!! See you again soon ladies, God Bless!!! ❤️❤️❤️“

“I'm a fan of Soy Tofu! It is another local gem. The service is kind and attentive, the dining area is clean, and the vibe is pleasant. The decor is simple and homey.

I've dined here several times already, and each time was fantastic.

My current favorite items:
- Soon Tofu (soups) - mushroom and the beef + seafood with black rice
- The Tofu Combos - if you're a little more hungry, I recommend the BBQ short ribs with the tofu soup
- Dumplings - fried or steamed, they are both excellent!
- The complimentary ice cream!

When you receive the boiling hot tofu soup, immediately add the raw egg and stir it a little. The egg will cook fast in the hot broth. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available.

If you're in the area, try Soy Tofu. It's in a plaza with a Korean market and many other restaurants. There's usually plenty of parking in the public lot.“

“Tang in Buena Park is a gem for delicious Korean comfort food. Their soups and stews arrive piping hot with rich and authentic flavors. The portions are generous, and every dish feels like home-cooked (just a little more intense flavor). The signature soups are very good. They also wrap the large mandu in house and give very generous filling. Server can speak Korean, English and Chinese!“

“i like the food, big serving & it’s worth the price, i hope they willnot increase the price or lessen the service.“

“Complex, authentic Korean flavors made with traditional p ingredients. A humble porridge could become a pleasantly enjoyable experience. I ordered bulnakji porridge today and instead of using ground beef or cheap meat, they used a good quality meat and then they sautéed the marinated bulgogi in butter. mmm. Chives/buchu they used were fresh and green. So was the octopus. Often times you taste the fishiness but this octopus or nakji had a very clean flavor. The venue and the food they served were very clean. I highly recommend this place.“

“My family & I love this place! The food is delicious & they have kim chi fried rice & other items some place don’t offer. The staff is also super nice & you get free delicious ice cream! We’ve eaten at other places & it doesn’t come close to here . The price is so good in comparison too!“

“So does your policy of a minimum of 2 people eating extend to senior citizens who may not have anyone to dine with???? Shame on you for turning away a paying customer…“

“Food was good. It is the usual traditional broths and dishes (beef or pork). Pairs well with soju. Felt like a Korean restaurant with a 2k-ish vibe. I would prefer this over a combo anything at fast food places. By the way, if you are not familiar with Korean restaurants, check the side of the table for a drawer. Utensils are inside. If utensils are not brought to you, it is normally at the table.“

“Don't know what some of these low reviews are on but this place was great. It's a restaurant known for their seolleongtang, an authentic oxbone based soup. They cook the bones for hours until the broth becomes milky white and rich and top it with meat and noodles. The table will have a jar of salt and a jar of green onions so that each person could season their own dish (this is normal in Korea) and each meal is provided with side dishes (approximately four, again normal for seolleongtang) and healthy purple rice (this is high quality and more expensive than your standard white rice). I don't normally eat Korean food outside of my home because most restaurants disappoint me but this one deserved five stars. Would come again the next time I am in Cali.“

“I recently visited Gamsagol Gamjatang in Buena Park, and it was a fantastic experience! Despite being newly opened and very busy, the service was efficient, and the food was absolutely worth the wait. Their gamjatang (pork bone soup) was rich, flavorful, and perfect for the upcoming cold weather. The hearty portions and authentic flavors make this place a must-visit for comfort food lovers. I’ll definitely be back soon!“

“Best chicken and beef this side of the Pacific Ocean! Genki Grill is fast with top quality meet and vegetables. What more could you ask for? Why are you even still reading this review? So order some good food for yourself and others. Change the world!“

“Delicious food, fast service, friendly staff, beautiful atmosphere…all in all definitely a great place to eat at. I’ve been there twice and have left both times fully satisfied by the food and planning to return.“

“This restaurant reminded me of Seattle's "The Pike Place Fish Market," where fresh fish has been sold for decades as employees playfully throw fish around. Though this place has been open for 10 years, we were unaware of its existence. Situated in a humble shopping center with a modest square footage, you would never imagine the quality of service and Korean food it offers. When we checked in, the restaurant was nearly full, and the busyness and energy of the staff expressed their confidence and pride in their reputation.

We were first served water, and the waitstaff's recommendations already impressed us with the promise of quality and taste. We ordered Braised Black Cod, and SsamJjang Vegetables wrap combination with Spicy Marinated Pork, and Bean Casserole for the three of us to share. The fresh lettuce and vegetables, including green pepper, cucumber, carrots, wild sesame leaves, and steamed cabbage, arrived first. We also had a choice between white rice and mixed grain rice, opting for the healthier option.

The presentation and quantity of the food and side dishes were attractive and impressive. When the Spicy Pork arrived, we could already tell it would taste great. The Bean Casserole was also delicious. The awaited Braised Black Cod, which they were very proud of, came last. We didn’t have to wait long to encounter one of the restaurant's most popular dishes. The combination of quantity, quality, and taste was outstanding, although it was a little too sweet for one of us. The Black Cod melted in our mouths, and the tofu and radish were incredibly flavorful. We called this kind of food 밥도둑 (Thief of Rice) because it kept making us eat more rice. We were very full and ended up taking the leftovers home. The service was excellent.

There might be many people who have never visited this restaurant, but there are likely few who have only been here once. We plan to come back to try other menu items next time. Strongly recommended.

Parking: The restaurant parking at the back could be challenging when restaurant is full.“

“We really enjoyed our stop here. While staying at the La Quinta next door, my family and I struggled to decide on where to eat. We saw Flame Broiler and decided to give it a try. The quality of meat they use is excellent and you get more than enough. My kids, despite getting the smallest size meal they could, still couldn’t eat everything. Coupled with their different sauces, you’re in for a good meal with lots of flavor variety. If you’re looking for quality food that doesn’t feel like a gut-bomb when you’re done, give Flame Broiler a try.“
