50 Best Korean Restaurants near La Habra

“Everything was just SO good. The food came out so fast too. The portions are HUGE so be sure to order less than the headcount. They are famous for the pork ribs sour kimchi stew so be sure to try it. The summer fish are came with 3 crickets and it was cooked to perfection and not too salty. This place is must try.
The servers used to be rude, but I didn’t notice it anymore“

“So surprised have a $23 lunch price and it’s available even on the weekends, which is honestly hard to find. I went with the $40 combo and you get unlimited meat, plus they have an AYCE meat bar where you can serve yourself and grab even more meat.

Everything we tried tasted fresh and the quality of the meat was really good. I feel like you get so much food for what you pay here, and the weekend lunch deal makes it even better. Definitely a spot I’d come back to when I’m craving KBBQ!“

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

“We got the beef curry and an avocado salad. It was pretty yummy, and I liked the vinagrette for the salad. It was simple and clean and the avocados were fresh and creamy. I like that they had silverware instead of plastic utensils, and everything feels homey and thoughtful. There's silver cups for water, and a lid for the trash. The trash is the sort that does not originally come with a lid, they made one out of wood so flies don't fly in and bother everyone.“

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

“The chicken teriyaki was absolutely delicious. I would recommend asking for extra teriyaki sauce just in case you want to add more flavor to the dish. The food, service, and atmosphere are all 5-stars! I would highly recommend this Japanese restaurant!“

“Tteokboki like you never had before

If you're a fan of tteokbiki then this place elevates that experience.

From the customization and selection, it was a delicious experience .

If I had a choice between fried chicken and tteokbiki ( they sell both) i would normally eat more chicken.

But in this instance, I kept going back for tteokbiki more and more, completely forgetting the chickens existence.

This isn't do downgrade the chicken, the chicken was absolutely delicious, but I kept going back for more rice cakes.

Would visit again“

“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+++++“

“Really enjoyed our dinner here! The portions were huge and everything we ordered was delicious. The beef ribs were especially good—the meat was so tender and flavorful, and the broth was rich and comforting. Definitely a satisfying meal, and we’ll be back!“

“We had a great experience at Yangmani KBBQ! The food was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of high-quality meats and plenty of options to choose from.

The service was excellent from start to finish, and our server, Alex, was especially attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Alex’s great service really made the experience even more enjoyable.

We highly recommend Yangmani KBBQ to anyone looking for delicious Korean BBQ, great selection, and outstanding service. One of my favourite spots for KBBQ.“

“We love the beef bulgogi, spicy chicken/pork and tofu bowls. The food always tastes great and they’re open until 9 pm. Update. We’ve now have been here once or twice a week since they’ve opened. It’s taste fantastic and travels well to eat at home. I’m sitting here now waiting for my order“

“Delighted with their service and food. Serving is perfectly good for 2 and with reasonable price.“

“Bibimbap was okay 7/10.
The OG kimbap was really good 9/10
And the free broth they serve is amazing as well. The foods portion is also pretty big.
Will definitely stop by again soon.

*update 9/13
Came here more than three times now, getting the og kimbap everytime, so delicious.“

“Wow! I stopped here on a whim on my way to gas station. So glad I did! Portions are huge, so much flavor and chicken is juicy & delicious. The service made me feel so welcomed and appreciated. One of my new favorite spots!!! Thank you!“

“One of the best inari sushi spots I've tried! Everything tasted amazing, the portions were generous, and the prices were hard to beat. The staff made us feel so welcome with their friendly service. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and give this place a try. You won't be disappointed!“

“I was in the area and had missed my lunch so I decided to give it a try.
I got a build your own mini bowl with Beef and Dalcom (spicy&sweet) sauce. As a Korean, I knew this place was going to be good because they use actual kimchi and Korean gochujang sauce. But they also have other toppings and sauces.

The mini bowl felt like Regular size bowl. I am full and satisfied~“

“I work next to this place and have tried every single one of their kimbaps. Recently, I ate kimbap from The Source at 1.5x the price as the one here, and the quality was so bad that it made me miss the taste of the one I ordered from here. I will be coming back sometime this week to remember the taste of great-tasting kimbap!“

“We ordered the #1 combo for five people that had jokbal, bossam and spicy noodles. We loved how moist and tender the jokbal and bossam were. Seasoned perfectly. Veggies (lettuce and napa cabbage) that came with them were fresh. We thought the amount of food was generous and the banchans had good variety. The owner lady was nice and attentive. Great experience!!“

“What a wonderful surprise! This small, quaint spot is serving up some seriously delicious food. I came specifically for the Baja-style fish tacos, and they did not disappoint. The fish was perfectly crispy, lightly battered, and served in generously sized tacos topped with fresh cabbage and flavorful toppings that brought everything together.
I also tried the burger, which was packed with flavor and cooked just right. The service was friendly, fast, and welcoming, making the entire experience even better.
From what I understand, this is a family-owned restaurant, and that personal touch really shows. Be sure to check their website for menu updates, as they have some exciting new items coming soon. I'll definitely be back to see what's next!“

“Tried the Curry Katsu Cup and it was everything I wanted it to be and more. Price was beyond reasonable and portions were generous. I also met the owner who was extremely nice and he recommended other dishes for next time. Will definitely come back.“

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

“Had a great experience at Eighty Eight Q! The food was really good, but the service from Hermione was what really stood out.

She was super attentive and somehow always knew when we needed more meat, sides, or dessert. She would check in at just the right time without us having to flag her down or ask. It made the whole experience so easy and enjoyable.

You can tell she really pays attention to her customers and takes pride in her service. Definitely one of the best servers we’ve had at a Korean BBQ spot. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Hidden gem, great for lunch and they do catering. I ordered multiple items for catering for a party, and my guest kept telling me how amazing the food was. Three of my guests went to eat at the restaurant the next week and again told me how amazing it was.“

“We came here craving a hearty, authentic meal, and it completely exceeded expectations. We ordered their signature Gamjatang and it was phenomenal. The broth is deeply flavorful, rich, and simmered to perfection with tender pork bones that practically fall off the bone.“

“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…“

“The pork katsu was amazing, but the macaroni and the salad need some improvement. I hope it was just an off day, but the macaroni had a strange taste, and the salad was bland. I really hope those two items are improved because the pork katsu itself was excellent.“

“love this place! i’ve been here a few times and the food never disappoints. the prices are very reasonable as well. i’ve had the curry udon, sausage udon stir fry, korean corn dog and kimchi fried rice in the past and they all were very delicious. the family who runs the restaurant are very nice and the restaurant is decorated with lots of bulldog decor.“

“My family and I had a great and amazing experience here. Not only was the food tasty but Sun, the lady at the register, is really sweet and was very kind to my daughters. I would definitely come back again and try the other items they have on their menu.“

“great food and prices, service was awesome“

“Great KFC Wings and cold beer!“

“My wife and I aren't Korean but we've tried quite a few restaurants in our years living in socal. Overall a very solid place. I got #5 the beef rice soup and it was pleasantly rich with a touch of spice. Sides were excellent and fresh. If we lived in LA and not SD, I'd probably make this a regular place for a cheap good soup noodle“

“Love Gangnam Kimbob so much. Very laid back atmosphere. Service is always hospitable and upbeat. Food options are plentiful and delicious. You also get a lot for your dollar here imo. The kimbop is very filling and always leaves me feeling good about my choice to eat out given the portion of veggies contained within. I usually cycle between the tonkatsu, tempura shrimp, ssam and spicy ssam kimbops, while my wife loves to order their shin ramyun. They also have some interesting combos for lunch and dinner I’ve yet to try, but come with a variety of food that seem like a great option when you don’t only crave one thing. I can’t recommend this place enough.

P.S. they do discounts during their happy hour“

“Not only the gomtang (beef bone soup) but all the other dishes here are delicious, too. We ordered the budae-jjigae (army base stew); the portion was generous, and it tasted great.
And the server was so friendly. We had an even better time thanks to the server who took care of us.“

“This is THE spot for gamja tang in the OC. The soup base here is spot on. It's just so savory and smooth and flavorful. The steamed pork cabbage wraps are to die for. And our family's favorite dish is their potatoe pancakes! It's one off the most delicious thing you'll ever eat! I love that the had Sunkist grape soda today, which was the cherry on top!“

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

“This is #1 Korean Food restaruant in LA hands down, it is the only restaurant I have seen that gives MORE food than the photos.

Pork Belly wrap is so authentic in taste I thought I was in Korea, and you can tell every item is super delicious. Plus it was big enough for 2- 3 people👏

I plan to try every single item this place offers.“

“This Korean shop features kimbap, box lunches, and a range of pickled delicacies. We ordered a box lunch that includes chicken, vegetable omellete, dried baby fish, and two kinds of pickles, a serving of rice, and cup of soup. All of this for $15! The combo is a mixture of sweet, tart, hot, chewy, crispy flavors for a refreshing lunch.“

“Best best best Korean bbq in Fullerton Brea placentia Yorba linda area. After da Rae went out of business I had to find a new favorite spot. I love the Galbi. The cold noodle soup is top ranked number 1. And the bibimbap hot pot is great too.“

“One of my favorite spots for lunch in Downtown Fullerton. Spotlessly clean mom and pop spot, with friendly, helpful staff.

No frills. Just good food at a good price, served fast. Perfect spot for local employees to grab lunch and get back to the office in a half-hour.

If you haven't tried the Ubu, or you're weirded out by it, it's time to dive in and give it a try. Soft tofu skin, nice cool rice, and a heaping pile of your favorite filling. Honestly, they give you enough filling for two Ubus, easily. And it's delicious.

If you just want to pop in for a bowl of instant Ramyun, you cook it yourself on an EZ Cook, which is kinda fun. Plus, instant Ramen with an Ubu on the side for $10 is an unbeatable deal, right now.“

“Saw this place driving by and decided to try it. Food quality was amazing and I would say it’s very similar but BCD but the seafood was fresher. What brings it over the top is the amazing service. The waiters constantly checked on me and everyone was so hospitable. All the side dishes are made in-house and they have a TV for sports which was nice. Will be coming back“

“I ordered the $39 lunch course. Unfortunately, the portions were quite small, and the food itself was honestly underwhelming.

The braised short ribs came with about one piece of meat per person, and they were way too sweet for my taste. The brisket soybean paste stew was also very greasy. The gujeolpan was delicious, but the portion was extremely small.

That said, the service was top-notch. The atmosphere was also beautiful—it’s hard to find a Korean restaurant with such a nice ambiance. I just wish the food and portions were better for the price.“

“Excellent and authentic food. Very friendly and informative service. Casual atmosphere. The restaurant was empty at lunchtime on a Saturday, but service was quick and attentive. Meat came out sizzling on cast iron platters. Banchan were very tasty. Refreshing cold chewy buckwheat noodles.“

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

“Drove 1 & half hours to eat here & I highly recommend you make the drive too!!

It's delicious
Pictures do it no justice.
Service was excellent.
And the vibes were just right. Small family owned & ran business Roxy was great Chef is awesome.

Stop by & thank me later!“

“Mhat Korean Restaurant may be a small spot, but it delivers authentic Korean flavors and a really satisfying meal.

We ordered the Dak Galbi (Stir-fried Spicy Chicken) with a side of mozzarella cheese, along with an order of fried dumplings. The dak galbi was packed with flavor, and we appreciated being able to adjust the spice level to something a little milder. Adding the mozzarella was definitely the right call, it melted into the spicy chicken, making the dish even richer and creamier while balancing the heat beautifully. The fried dumplings were crispy, flavorful, and made a great side.

The best part of the meal was saving room for the fried rice at the end. They cooked it right in the leftover dak galbi sauce, soaking up all of the rich, spicy flavors. It’s definitely the way to finish the meal and something I highly recommend ordering.

The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, but the food is authentic, the portions are satisfying, and everything came together for a great dining experience. If you’re craving dak galbi, this place is well worth checking out.“

“The lunch special caught my eye as I was walking by. Walked in was greeted so warmly. Kiki attended me and she was great and provided the best hospitality. It’s family owned, so I’m glad I was able to help support their business!!!“

“I am not Korean but I love this restaurant. They serve true comfort food. The galbi tang is so tasty as well as the braised beef. Now that they started serving rice cake soup with dumpling, all of my Korean comfort food is in one place. Yay!“

“I love this place! Its low-key, it's clean and the lady that opens is just absolutely amazing! Been here a few times already. My goto is The Mul Naengmyun (Korean cold noodle with icey beef broth) . Absolutely delicious! The banchan varieties are tasty and they always as k to refill you up.. All the soups (hot) are very flavorful, hearty, and tasty!!!!!! Highly recommend. Fullerton location by amerige heights is very delicious too!!here is my preference though😀“

“I recently visited Ma’s Banchan and was honestly impressed. The banchan tasted just like homemade food—fresh, balanced, and not overly salty. You can tell a lot of care goes into the preparation. The portions were generous for the price, and the staff was very friendly. It reminded me of the side dishes my mom makes at home. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Finally we came to this Korean restaurant tonight and knew that we had made the right decision. We tried their Bossum and Seafood pancake and it turned out they were really delicious. Our server was very friendly and professional. Their pricing is very reasonable. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this restaurant!“
