50 Best Korean Restaurants near Los Alamitos

“Passed by Los Alamitos, and saw this korean resto.
We ordered jap chae and curry pork katsu.

Here's the deal, if you're hungry and want a Humongous serving, eat here.
Their serving is so huge that it can feed 2 people.
Taste-wise is delicious especially the jap chae, you can ask for refill of their sides.
Will definitely come back with friends and family.“

Parking: Keep doing what you're doing because it seems to be working. But what I know? You guys are bomb legit and don't let anybody take that away from you awesome food awesome service awesome people.“

“I was staying in a hotel nearby and saw this restaurant on google maps so I wasn’t sure how it would be. But honestly, this place was really excellent. One of the better Korean BBQ experiences I’ve had. All of the food was very fresh and tasty. They gave us a huge variety of dishes and I ate until I was very full, but I still felt great afterwards. On top of that, the staff were very nice. Great experience.“

“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+++++“

“Amazing food love Korean fusion especially the bulgogi burrito 🌯🌯🌯the burrito is so packed it will likely fall apart as the tortilla cannot contain all the incredible food and delectable ingredients. I got the bulgogi and it was perfect. Juicy, just the perfect amount of sweetness. A generous proportion and well balanced with the egg, veggies etc.. a perfect medley and entirely satisfying.“

“Came with a friend as a play date with our kids my and we had so much food we couldn’t finish! Got the dooki combo. The ddukbokki was served on a heating dish so it would stay hot throughout the meal. My kids devoured the dooki rice and cheese balls. The chicken was the sleeper hit though... So crispy and piping hot and perfectly seasoned.“

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

“This has been a regular spot of mine even after I moved out of the immediate area. The chicken box is a great little meal & my favorite but the grilled bowl is also delicious. Actually everything I've had here is delicious and the evening vibes are fantastic. Low lights & music that doesn't distract from conversation. Did I mention the disco ball?“

“el mejor restaurant de comida Koreana.... regresaré!!“

“There is no other substitute. The bone in Wings of Fire are exactly what they advertise. I am a rare person that has principles. I demand that my food puts up a good fight. Wings of Fire never lets me down. With pickled radishes and Soju you can’t go wrong. The other flavors are always great. Don’t you sell out on me BB.q“

“Starting with the food. I got the fresh salmon, popping salmon, fluffy egg, and grilled spicy pork. I liked the fluffy egg and grilled spicy pork the best.
Fresh salmon is alright. It is what it is with basically poke quality salmon. Light and refreshing.
Popping salmon has like sort of a buldak/rameny flavor for the marinade which I didn’t like but my partner liked. Not too spicy.
Grilled spicy pork is fairly typical dwaegi gogi, which i like so i’m a little biased. i thought it was good with the yubu. Plenty of pork marinade seeping through the rice. Not very spicy.
Fluffy egg did not have as much roe as the picture lead me to believe but it was good. It also had a few salmon roe for some reason but I liked it. Nice and savory. Egg was wet-ish and soft. nice.

Prices are fairly reasonable. I’d say 3-4 would be a pretty filling meal for the average person. about $5-7 each yubu after tax. I’ve never seen a yubu restaurant before. Vibes are kind of grab and go but they have a decent amount of seating for like groups of 4-5 maybe (like 3-4 tables)

Pretty okay neat looking modern place on the inside. I might try again if I was craving something in particular. I wanted to try the Garlic Butter Crab that other reviews were talking about.“

“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.“

“I went to celebrate my milestone birthday.
food, service and atmosphere was superb.
it is on the pricey side but I think it is worth.
i didn't tell them it's was my birthday but somehow they figured out and brought me seaweed soup which is a traditional soup you eat on your birthdays.
it was so nice of them to do that.
i highly recommend if you want to experience high end Korean restaurant.“

“This place was great. It was empty when we walked in hopefully they usually get more business because they definitely deserve to stay open. For me, the service was perfect, the guy welcomed us in and left us alone after that which is perfect since i’m shy. We got the pork cutlet kimbap and the rose tteokbokki. The tteok was perfectly chewy and so soft and great for me because i can’t handle a lot of spice. The pork cutlet in the kimbap was so so yummy. We’ll definitely come back.“

“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.“

“This was one of the best meals I’ve ever had in my life. I had the tofu beef stew medium spice with all the fixings on the side. I also had an ice cold Cass beer which I have had before. Bohye was very attentive and gave me great recommendations. I will definitely be back next time I’m in the area.“

“Place is amazing with great food and wonderful food! The bowls they have here are outstanding and give you so much food for the price you pay per entree. Highly recommend this to anyone in the area and/or visiting the plaza and want to get a glorious meal.“

“The quality of the pork belly was excellent, and the service of having the staff grill the meat for us made the experience very comfortable. The variety of pickled side dishes was impressive and paired perfectly with the meat. Both the doenjang-jjigae and kimchi-jjigae were absolutely delicious. The restaurant itself was spacious and very clean. One thing I wish was that the staff could have been a bit friendlier, but overall, if you’re looking for authentic Korean-style pork BBQ, I’d definitely recommend this place.“

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

“Their Jjampong and Jajangmyeon are truly excellent. I ordered the Beef Brisket Bean Sprout Jjampong and the Jajangmyeon, and both dishes exceeded my expectations. I am definitely looking forward to revisiting this place! The only downside is the waiting time, as the restaurant is frequently crowded and has limited seating.“

“Very good food & service.
Packed house even though we missed the Sunday dinner rush--we were seated smack in front of the wall & painted-over outlets, etc., very odd, do not recommend that table.
Wish it were closer to us.“

“Best galbitang I’ve ever had in my life in the world, including any that I’ve tried in Korea. Portions were great, service was great, prices very reasonable especially considering how California can be. 10/10 would recommend this place, super comforting food.“

“Just visited for the 1st time, seen the items they had posted on the window, it looked so good I decided to try it out and man I dont regret it. I ordered a bowl with spicy chicken and kimchi and man that dish was so good better then I had in mind that I am forsure going to come back. Just got to find parking tbh because its next to the court house but the food is delicious“

“The food is alright. The one I had in LA was much better!“

“My friend and I got their spicy marinated crab and it was soooo good. The perfect texture and flavor. It wasn’t too spicy and it paired so well with rice and seaweed. We also got the beef soup with dumplings and rice cake which was also amazing as well! The workers here are so kind too“

“Simple Korean comfort food set in a cute little restaurant setting-

Got the Korean katsu meal which comes with soup , along with a roll of bulgogi kimbap and my husband got their combo set with ddukbokki and kimbap, which came with two dumplings.

Simple, fresh and delicious with kind and welcoming servers“

“The gamjatang was absolutely delicious. The broth was rich and flavorful, and the pork was tender and full of flavor. It was the perfect comfort food, especially on a cool day. I would definitely order it again.
And JJol noodle !!!“

“All the side dishes and main menus here are hands-down the best among all Korean restaurants in Orange County.
The neat and heartfelt side dishes,
and the main dishes made without skimping on any ingredients, are all truly delicious.
Our family is sincerely a loyal regular at Hanmi Restaurant.“

“Tang was exactly what we were craving after a night out. The portions were generous, and the side dishes complemented the meal well. Since the soups already include rice noodles, I skipped out on the extra rice.

We ordered the soondae guk and the galbi tang. The galbi was rich and flavorful. The highlight of the meal was the soondae (blood sausage). The texture was different, filled with a mixture of pork blood and noodles.

Overall, it was a great dining experience and a perfect choice for a morning comfort meal. Definitely a spot worth returning to.“

“Our family loves Kaju food.“

“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!“

“Ordered for the first time from their and it was great. Many more choices than other delivery apps and great prices too. Even had a call with the restaurant on items ordered. She was very helpful, kind, and supportive. Great food and great service! Thank you so much!!“

“Kind of a hidden hole in the wall spot a bit off of the main Garden Grove Koreatown strip.

Good set of 반찬 (side dishes) and the portions were large. I ordered the 갈비탕 (rib soup) and it had large pieces of meat that fell off the bone.“

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

“Went in today !! Gotta say the food was great .. had spicy beef soup and my wife had bulgogi and dumplings … was completely satisfied with this place !! Also we were the only 2 customers there .. which was shocking after having tasted the food … very delicious… how is this not a popular place ???“

“Food was amazing and service was too“

“Highly recommended. The galbi short rib, kimchi pancake, soon tofu (especially the mushroom broth), and the banchan were all delicious. There was even a bonus ice cream, how delightful! The ambiance feels elegant and distinctly European with a chill vibe. Service was great. Will be returning!“

“Everything was delicious for the price! I got the Menu B and the quality of the meats were superb, they gave us a good portion too. The side dishes were just as good! Love the self serve area cause they had sushi as well! Staff were friendly and quick with changing our grill! The restaurant itself was clean and the environment was not too loud so it was easy to talk in there. Totally worth the try!“

“The seafood pancake was incredibly delicious. Such fresh ingredients. The green onions were crunchy and thick. The octopus, fish, and shrimp flavors were the right combination of salty and sweet. The egg batter just perfectly seasoned. And that outside crunch...it spoke to my soul.“

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

“This is a small family own restaurant that provides very authentic Korean food. The location is a bit weird especially when you visit during the night.
At the parking lot, we hesitated and thought we might go to the wrong place. However, we love the food there. We ordered bul-nak jun-gol. The casserole is heartwarming especially eating in a winter night. The side dishes are also great. The variety combined with the octopus and bulgogi definitely gave us a nutritious and delicious meal. We will visit again when going to that area.“

“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!“

“We've eaten here a few times, both inside and takeout. Each time the food has been delicious! 🤤 We usually get the bulgogi pizza and some wings. The lady working the counter and serving the food is super nice and is like a mother making sure you're taken care of. I always try to get some food here when I'm in the area and highly recommend it!“

“We got the combo and all of it was delicious. Love the beef kimbap, my man loved the beef spicy soup. The portions are pretty sizeable, had to take the tteoki-bokki home because we got full. For sure will return again and try their fried chicken.“

“This is my nostalgia almost like my 2nd home because of how much I love the food here. When I was a kid, I went to the one in La Palma and then the one that burned down in Rowland Heights and eventually had to close. So eventually my family would roll over to here since it was the closest to us.

I love their soups and the simple side dishes. It’s a very humble and simple place.

The day this place closes will be the end of an era, but I know this place will outlive me 🥲“

“All the banchans (free) were delicious and they gave at least 6 different kinds! They do not skimp on ingredients. The main dishes were absolutely delightful and huge in portion. It feels like your at your aunt's home with warm service and loving care. Such a wonderful heartfelt experience!! Not a fancy interior... more of a soulfood atmosphere!“

“Kaju Soft Tofu still has my favorite soontofu ever: galbi soft tofu.

The crazy thing is soontofu costs $17.99 per bowl! This includes the rice bowl that comes in the stone pot. Add water to it after you remove the rice. Take it home to drink. This also includes the side dishes, like kimchi cabbage, kimchi radish, bean sprouts, etc.

You order on the tablet at your table. When you need to check out, there is an option on the tablet too.

I docked one overall star because the service was lacking. The tablet has options to ask for water or get the check, but there is no button to get to-go containers or more napkins. It was hard to flag down someone, and it took them even longer to get what we asked for.

Free parking in the private lot

“Oh Mama Kitchen is a small catering and to-go spot offering a wide variety of Korean soul foods, such as 전, 김밥, 만두, and assorted side dishes perfect for busy people looking for comforting, home-style meals. Tucked into a modest retail space, it happens to be one of my sister’s favorite places. They prepare many delicious dishes in ready-to-go boxes, making it easy and convenient to enjoy authentic Korean flavors. It’s easy to see why this place is quickly gaining popularity.“

“Have been coming here for years! Their jokbal is so chewy and full of collagen. And I can't speak enough about their soondae gookbap, it is very delicious with full of flavors. If you are at H mart for grocery shopping I recommend stopping by at this place to try their food. I high recommend!“

“The best Gob Chang restaurant in the Buena Park area. Food comes out already mostly cooked and is kept hot on small burner, so no bbq smell after eating. Meat quality is great, and their side dishes are the best combination of the meat. Their pork belly is great also. And definitely try their cold noodle.“
