50 Best Korean Restaurants near Pomona

“First time having a MOCHI DONUT. Flippin’ awesome, and couldn’t recommend them enough if you’re a pastry lover.“

“This is truly a secret gem in the city. I'd recommend anyone from Pomona or anyone passing through to try this place at least once. Food is great the people are nice the vibe excellent. I love how they decorated the inside to give a unique authentic feel. My favorite go to dish here is the spicy seafood Ramen, the sushi are great as well. 😄👍“

“Located right next to Cal Poly college, Jinza Teriyaki is a great spot to eat after classes, my all time favorite is the Loco Moco bowl. The people are incredibly nice and especially early the place is a nice quite area to eat in. My only wish is that they would open earlier as someone who's out n about by 7am, but I understand not wanting to open at the crack of dawn.“

“I drove all the way from LA for this AND IT DID NOT DISSAPOINT!!! the nice family working there was having dinner together and it was cute. They helped me save money by suggesting a combo instead. There arent any seats or public restrooms but the chickens so good i couldnt even be upset. Im happily eating this in my car right now“

“I ordered from for the first time today and I must say that it was the greatest decision I made today! I ordered their Katsu sandwich and fries and it was delicious!

The bread was soft, the Katsu was crispy and full of flavor and most of all the coleslaw on the middle was sweet and tasty! The fries were the perfect side to it, they were cooked just right and they complimented the sandwich so well.

They also have a variety of drinks that can cater to everyone's tastes. Even though it ordered a coke today next time I will try the tea.

Hungry Bulldog House you have got yourself another customer that will be returning hungry for more on a different day!“

“This is my absolute favorite spot after a round of golf. Honestly, almost everything on the menu is delicious, and even the side dishes are top-notch. It’s the perfect place to enjoy the '19th hole' with friends. Highly recommended for any golfer in the area.“

“The best korean BBQ i've tried ever ! The meat is perfect and not too much fat, the ambience is catchy, the service is 5⭐️! Very fast to bring the meat, change the grill plate and to refill the side dish either! How lovely this place, i hope they can open at lunch... for sure i will recommend this place and be back asap!“

“Our Boss buys lunch for our monthly goal met. And this month he had the opportunity to try Soonheene. Highly recommend their Rice water is tasty and perfect sweetness. Like a verson of Horchata without the dairy. Thier chicken was super crispy as it should be n very flavored. Will definitely come with Family“

“the fishcake udon and the knife cut noodles (kalguksu) were so good, and the prices were very reasonable! the owner was super friendly as well and complimented my plushie and treated it well, which is the first time i’ve had someone do that while eating at a restaurant :)“

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

“This side dish shop is the best I've ever been to. It tastes more Korean than Korea, and the quality of the kimbap in particular is sky-high. Keto kimbap without rice is new and healthy. This place has become a place I must visit every time I pass by.“

“delicious food. good selection of meats. short wait for a table. our server Ethan was great as well as all the other staff.“

“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.“

“Moved from Pomona to Vegas and I miss this place... I'm having a hard time finding another place that rivals it. Everything I've ever ordered is amazing. Their soy garlic wings, full fried chicken, bossam, fire chicken, Korean army stew, the sojuritas... Will be coming back whenever I visit home.“

“Love it yummy food 🥘 good place to relax too 🍰💕“

“This is the place we went to have a quick bite when we moved to Diamond Bar 8 years ago and then we found so many other places to eat and almost forgot this restaurant. Recently we visited this place again, the menu is same except price a little higher. The quality of food are same but now they gave you disposable chopsticks instead of re-usable ones in the past. Other than that, not much change, always busy but the waiting time is tolerable. I like this beef BBQ rib combo with seafood tofu soup and they are good. They don’t have steak knife but so provide a pair of scissors and a small pair of tongs so that you don’t have to eat BBQ beef with just chopsticks.“

“ATOYUBU Diamond Bar is my new favorite spot! The yubu pockets are fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made every bite tastes amazing. The spicy tuna and bulgogi were standouts, and the presentation is top-notch. Staff are friendly, the space is clean and modern, and everything feels high quality. Perfect for a quick meal or takeout. Highly recommend!“

“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!“

“Almost identical to Young Dong Tofu. A lot more variety with side dishes. Pork cutlet was huge for $20. Everything was tasty and service was excellent. Not sure if tofu soups normally come with egg. Ours didn’t. Definitely go here if you want to avoid waiting at Young Dong Tofu. They also have jajangmyeon 14.99 (didn’t try not on menu but posted inside on the walls)“

“This weekend, I took my little dog to Chino for a walk. After seeing the cows, I randomly searched for a highly-rated Korean restaurant nearby. I never expected it to be so amazing; it's even better than those in K-town! 😋 This place used to be a chain brand, and the one in Chino is a new store. It's very popular among Koreans.
The white-cut meat was served and it was completely different from what I expected! It contained beef, tripe and tendons, and was paired with onions and bean sprouts. The plus point was the fragrant garlic, which, when combined with their sauce, was so delicious that I couldn't get enough of it. The tendons were so tender and I loved it so much 😍
The spicy pickled crabs 🦀 are so deliciously seasoned. Who wouldn't love a sweet and spicy seafood ice cream? Once served, it's gone in no time, with people taking one bite after another. Even my friend who doesn't like crabs had his first taste and couldn't stop eating so much.
The spicy octopus 🐙 rice bowl is really fragrant. The octopus is so chewy and bouncy, and it's so delicious. I also ordered the combo of cream soup and grilled steak, which is very cost-effective. The cream soup goes perfectly with the sticky rice bowl. There's even a recommendation on the napkin for how to enjoy the cream soup. The soup is so creamy and rich.
?? Here, you can also find the same style of Sunnongdan's pork ribs stew, but at a more affordable price. There are two sizes to choose from, and even the smaller one is enough for two people. Once you take a bite, the meat just falls off the bone, tender and flavorful. 😋
The staff are all very nice. It's a place I'll definitely come back to. The Korean food here really suits my taste and there are many side dishes. This is the most satisfying Korean meal I've had recently, without a doubt. Recently, many people have been coming to Chino Hiking to see the cows 🐮. You really should give it a try.“

“We have cravings for Korean food, but not the typical Korean BBQ. So we checked out Hanshin Pocha for the first time. Very down to earth setting. In the middle there's a big article and picture of the famous Korean chef (Chef Jong Won Paik) who also founded this chain of restaurants.

We told the server this is our first time so he was very helpful to explain the tradition and the type of food and what are their specialties.

We listened and ordered the whole fried chicken, the whole octopus, and the chicken feet stew!

We had such a good time! The food were exceptional! So tasty and fresh! You really have to try this place out and get the chicken!

Parking was very tigh as there are so many businesses and restaurants in this complex.“

“My wife and I share a meal, the hot stone bibimbap and tofu soup is our goto. The food is delicious. There are many popular dishes we see people eating. There is typically a wait at dinner time. Lunch is a little less crowded but busy too“

“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.“

“I genuinely want to say I like their duck because I really do. But if you plan to order takeout, I recommend getting a half duck or whole duck rather than the bento.

The first time I visited, I came with friends and we ordered a whole duck. It was excellent. That’s why I returned this time to try their bentos. I ordered a roasted duck bento and a salted duck bento. Unfortunately, both bentos were mostly filled with duck neck, and the salted duck bento even included the duck head, which was quite shocking when I first opened it. None of us eat duck head in our family, and it would’ve been nice if they at least asked, since it’s definitely not to everyone’s liking. There wasn’t much actual duck meat aside from a few pieces in the bento boxes, which was disappointing.

As I said, I really do enjoy their duck, the roasted duck was delicious. But the cuts they used for the bentos were not satisfying. I wouldn’t order the bentos again, but I would definitely come back for the whole roasted duck.“

“✨Who knew that seaweed rice balls would be the star of the meal?✨ You can expect every table to order that @yupddukdiamondbar amongst the many incredibly comforting dishes here🫶🏼

First time trying Korean comfort food or don’t know what to get? Order this lineup and thank me later:

🥚Omelette Rice
🐷Pork Cutlet
🍗Chicken feet
🍙Seaweed Rice ball
🍲Beef bulgogi stew“

“Yuk Dae Jang never disappoints. This was probably my 7th or 8th visit and the food and service continue to be excellent.

Tonight my fiancée and I ordered a small bossam and the yuk dae jang ramyun. Both dishes were flavorful, well balanced, and paired really nicely together. We also enjoyed the free refill side dishes. I went for the fish cakes while she loved the kimchi. A bowl of purple rice rounded things out perfectly, especially with the leftover ramyun broth.

Big plus, they finally serve alcohol now. The ambiance was comfortable and even though it got busier toward the end of our meal, it never felt overwhelmingly loud. Service was attentive and friendly from start to finish.

Highly recommend this spot if you are craving solid Korean comfort food in Rowland Heights.“

“Great addition to the food court! I'd been to other two hands and was worried it wouldn't be as good here since it's a food court location but it was very good. Service was unenthusiastic at best but the food was great, their potato dog is very enjoyable and the sauce is one of my favorite condiments. Will definitely be coming back 💪.“

“I got the whole crispy fried chicken with sauce. The chicken is juicy and crispy. The size of each individual chicken pieces are well quite large in size. And the portion size is quite a lot, so its price is very reasonable. The sauce flavor I got is hot and spicy and it does got some spiciness to it, but extremely enjoyable if you’re into spice. In addition, it is sweet, smoky, and each pieces is perfectly covered in the sauce. The service was friendly and I got my food within like 10-15 minutes. I will be definitely be going here often whenever I’m craving Korean Fried Chicken.“

“The buns here are stuff to the brim with filling with chives, glass noodles, wood ear mushrooms, and pork. Its a great quick meal to have after a long day because of how large the bun is. The frozen dumplings from here are also very generous in filling and are best boiled as soup or pan fried. The taste is meaty.“

“I really love eating at this store because when you dine in, you can have as much sauce as you want. And I love their sauces. I saw someone review for being stingy with their sauce. I didn't understand it. But I was thinking may be it was for "to go". I never order had "to go" here so I don't know. But for dine in, I come here all the time and it is great.“

“If anyone likes noodles, try Kalgooksu jungle. They only serve for lunch and it's for two people. It's cooked on the table. Lot's of mushrooms and veggie. The stew tastes very pure. Once you're done with noodles, the server will make porridge using the remainder of the stew. No words can describe it. Simply try!“

“It’s a really cute and homey atmosphere. Imma take my friends here someday. They got a few good ramens and they got vegan options as well. They got good dessert options too. Some steamed custard buns that look like little piggies. Come give it a try and give them some business.“

“Yes, one of the best Korean BBQ“

“Love Letter Chicken is amazing! I’ve loved it since I was a kid!
Having Korean yangnyeom fried chicken in the U.S. is something I’m honestly grateful for — it’s like a SoCal pride thing for me! 😄
And hey… if you haven’t tried it yet, my bad~ 🤣“

“Spending time with Mr. Oh of Diamond Bageloo, who puts philosophy and soul into every bagel he makes.
For dinner, we went for the locally famous sundae soup. Wow—no off-flavors at all, just a hearty bowl filled with assorted sundae, perfectly arranged in the pot, accompanied by crisp, refreshing radish kimchi.
Seeing the walls adorned with celebrity-signed frames, it’s clear this place isn’t just any ordinary spot—you can truly feel its quality after tasting it firsthand.“

“The Flame Broiler is a simple fast-food chain in Rancho Cucamonga. They prepare and serve Korean-style meat and rice bowls with no dairy, trans-fat or frying. Their bowls are always fresh and consistently good. Customer Service is always quick, staff is nice and friendly. This place is always clean and well-decorated. You will get 20% off your next order (except catering) if you check in to The Flame Broiler on Yelp.“

“Delicious soups and recommend here hot pot“

“Always one of our favorite places to eat, all the staff are great and the owner/chef Jay is always willing to customize our food preferences and knows exactly how we like it.“

“Seoul BBQ is a solid spot if you’re craving AYCE Korean BBQ 🔥
Great quality meats, quick refills, and that fun grill-at-your-table vibe that never gets old. Perfect for group hangs, meat lovers, and anyone who wants to eat a lot without stressing the bill.
Why it’s worth it:
🥩 All-you-can-eat meats (beef, pork, chicken)
🔥 Grill at your table = always hot & fresh
🥬 Banchan + sauces to mix & match“

“very good food with good price. The service is also good“

“This is my favorite Korean restaurant!“

“I’ve been to the La Habra location and it’s nice to know that the Rowland Heights location is just as yummy and has the same amazing deals like their lunch specials at $22.99. I do really enjoy that I can instantly eat because the marinated meats are the meat buffet . So no waiting involved except for the grill to be heated!!! There are over 7 different types of proteins at the meat bar and other set menu of items you can order with your server like beef belly and brisket or thin sliced pork belly. Their higher priced sets include LA Galbi, Seafood, Steamed Egg and so much more. I love how I can end my meal with a JIN RAMEN . If you never had Ramen at the end, you need to. It’s 10/10!“

“This is our go to place for Korean food. Love the Kpop vibe, service are friendly, their food is amazing, specially love their crispy Seafood pancake, kimchi pork belly, rose spicy pasta, fried chicken.... basically everything is delicious!!! Highly recommend“

“Wow! We came here to check out the ramen wall but ended up getting some bowls off the main menu instead. Tried the beef bowl and the wing bowl with spicy noodle and lemon pepper wings -- the rice was perfectly cooked and the meats and noodles where incredible. The servings are very generous as well, we both left stuffed.

The wait wasn't too bad considering everything was cooked fresh but apparently there's an order ahead option if you don't want to wait as long. They were playing good music and the noise level was such that we could hear each other but didn't feel like everyone was listening to our conversation.“

“Good comfort food. The stone pot was delish and came out so so hot. It was still steaming at the end of the meal. I had a lot of leftover and the side dishes were fresh and tasted good.The two ladies were patient with me on all my questions about the menu and the sauces. I was expecting them to be mean since so many reviews said they were but they were really nice and I came within the hour of closing and didn't feel rushed.I ordered the stone pot galli and the galbi combo. Both were good and the meat was not over cooked. Total for both dishes came out to almost $80“

“Have visited location numerous times picking up customer ordersOn the Northeast corner of Mountain Avenue and Eighth Street in UplandIn the Upland Village Shopping MallBusy locationCleanPleasant staffHaven't tried any of their menu items so I'm unable to give any recommendationsHowever, I may return on personal time someday

Parking: There is plenty of free parking in the shopping mallHowever, it can be a challenge to find parking at times since there is a Dollar Tree and Grocery Outlet Bargain Market in the mall“

“Mixed bag. The fried pork (탕수육) was really good and came in a generous portion. But the jjajangmyeon (짜장면)—despite being pricier than other places—was no better, maybe even worse.

I would recommend this place for family event or meeting after golf or something“

“Very good!! 🤗 and excellent service!! 🤤“

“The Kobe stakes is so testy . Assassins was as“

“First time here around 4:30pm on Sunday. It was really amazing and the quality is greater than all you can eat. We ordered a combo $79, and the staff was very nice and we learned a little bit Korean from her! Thank you so much for your service and we highly recommend!“
