25 Best Korean Restaurants near Rancho Cordova

“We chomped down like half of that soup before I thought to feed the phone!! It was delicious (ramen soup) with the tender pieces of beef. I'm not a soup eater but I will get this again. The gochujong chicken was super crispy, I wish they offered legs as some pieces were not super meaty. The porkchop was also very crispy. The brown sauce was not exactly how I like it but still good. Restaurant decor was minimal. I'm always comparing Korean restaurants here to what I had in South Korea - it's difficult to measure up. This was high quality and very enjoyable. Definitely going back for that soup.“

“Steak & Rubs were fantastic.“

“We ordered two combos of the ramen and kimbap and one of the soup (I forget), bulgogi kimbap, and the fire chicken. All were very good. Our server was a young woman who had blue hair. She was very nice and attentive and polite. I loved her! The atmosphere was comfortable and inviting. I want to come back and try their other food.“

“First off don't let their exterior scare you off. I drove by the restaurant, saw the darkened for and no windows and almost left without going inside. I was pleasantly surprised to find a bright welcoming restaurant inside. I ordered the lunch special. It was up quickly and they packed my to-go bag with chopsticks, plastic ware, napkins and extra sauce packets! Food was tasty and fresh. Definitely coming back again.“

“this spot is such a hidden jam. The food is amazing. The service is amazing, they even provide gloves for you to eat with your fried chicken. The drinks are literally so fizzy and amazing like if you don’t know where to go for Korean fried chicken go here. and the price you CANT beat sooooo affordable !!!“

“I absolutely love this restraint. We come here all the time and the staff is so friendly ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ they always greet us and we have come here so much that they know our names and we have the best time ♥️ they always give us some plum tea which is absolutely amazing and do not have an octopus sports or news blasting on the tv, but rather a calming videos of Korea. 10/10 would recommend coming here, it is amazing ♥️“

“Very good food. Friendly staff“

“Been coming here for years but haven’t made a review until now. Our dinner and service were exceptional! Seafood pancake was crisp and seafood wasn’t rubbery. Good banchan spread which they refill. Friendly and fast servers.

Vegetarian options: They have some tofu dishes for vegetarians.“

“Stopped by here after climbing in Tahoe. Really hit the spot with the galbitang as it wasn't too heavy and it consisted of a savory yet delicate soup. They had a variety of banchan (side dishes) as well that really complemented the main dishes. Some of the main dishes and beers were a bit pricey as I've seen it available for 2/3 the price. But since I didn't order those, 5 stars for me with wonderful service.“

“I've been to many kbbqs both around Sacramento and in K-town LA. This is by far the best kbbq place in Sacramento.
It has a very high level of traditional flavors and care for the ingredients. It's not your typical kbbq place that has strong flavors and marinades. JJs marinades accentuates the high quality meats they provide. Yes some of the unmarinated meats comes out frozen but that is how you cut meat consistently thin. Despite it being frozen you can tell they use quality meats because the brisket incredibly beefy and melts in your mouth. The thin pork belly incredible clean pork flavor. The marinated meats all came out fresh and unfrozen unlike most places in town. Their sides and cold noodles were fresh and the broth was clean and balanced between tangy, sweet and salty. Probably the best I've had so far.
Service was absolutely fine for us but it's definitely a no frill place.
Come here if you're a real foodie.“

“By far the best KBBQ I've been to. This is my comparison to several in Sac like OZ, and in San Francisco. It is pricey but if you can eat, it's well worth it. Sides are the best here but careful not to eat too much of it haha. The Meat were of the best quality compared to the other places.“

“Im from SF and can be a bit of a snob about whats good. OZ exceeded my expectations. Korean BBQ for meat lovers is a must try because there's nothing quite like it. Grilling at your own table is a very special touch. The food is FABULOUS. Not cheap, but definitely worth the price.“

“We had a 33rd birthday party for our son, his band and groupies, party of 11. The mgt Kien/Kenny was very accommodating with our reservation, running a slide show in our private room and the lobby while our guests arrived. The seafood pancakes, desert, and spinning the prize wheel were unexpected treats. Some may think it's pricey but when I consider that for the price I would pay for a basic Rib Eye dinner elsewhere, I can have as much Rib Eye, as well as a variety of other meats, chicken, shrimp, sides as I can possibly eat, it's very reasonable. Most of our group were 1st timers, so the cultural experience of new foods, cooking at your table the way you like, made for a unique experience. Our group of 20 something yr old punk rockers had a lot of fun, the service and food were excellent. We'll be back...ps. call ahead to gauge the crowd and bring an appetite.“

“This was my first time there & I went for my birthday with my girls. The food there was good & service there very great. Bunny was so sweet & sure knows how to keep us entertained. I will be going there again. Give the place 10/10. I was there from 6pm-2am. That should say a lot about the place.“

“food and slushies 10/10!!! The only downside was the wait it took 30 minutes to get food.“

“I've been to this place many of many a times and I will continue to come here it's an amazing Vibe and the food is absolutely phenomenal the staff is always super positive and welcoming I recommend this place to anyone and everyone with a sense of good taste buds.“

“Living in Carmichael for about year and a half, after living in Chicago (.a place that knows a little bit about chicken wings), this is my go to place for chicken wings. Not whole like Chicago.“

“First time here and I loved it so much. The seatings are with benches and a little tight but still decently roomy. There’s a lot of writing on the wall as you can write on it. The bathroom doesn’t flush as I held it down for 20secs and more like followed on the instruction in the bathroom. The food here is sooo flavorful and aromatic. I literally fell in love with my food. The rice was like Thai purple sticky rice just not sticky and I love that even more. My food was just not as tender as I’d like it to be but still good. I love the broth it came in and everything. My boyfriend had the tofu rice plate and that was pretty mid as I felt like they could’ve stir fry the tofu into the meat. Plus you can make this at home which didn’t feel very restaurant-y. The water was ice cold and they give it to you in a jug. Also offer barley tea but I did not drink it. Service was well, just like any other server.

(same review by me on Yelp)“

“To say the portions served here are generous is an understatement. We came in as a party of four, and what we we ordered turned out to be enough to feed 6 to 8 persons. The galbi, rice cake, and bimbimbap were super, the kimchi was fresh all around. The chap chae and fried chicken are below average, in my opinion.“

“NEVER had anything substandard here. Our entire family regularly dines here for lunches (with the grandchildren & their friends after school); and family dine-out night (weekly). We LOVE the tofu AND the Salmon Bento. Huge portions! ??????????“

“This a real Korean fried chicken. It pricey but you will never expect the taste of these magic fried chick !! It is so addictive writing comments make me so hungry this place reminds me of Korean k-drama place where u sit and eat those friends chick with your crush !! ^v^
Recommended green onion soy flavor , sweet honey butter powder .“

“Delicious! The waitress in the evening is so sweet I didn’t catch her name. Long dark hair. Junior I think is a manager he’s so nice also. We have been there a couple times now and will continue to go back. The lady in the back we overheard her being a little sassy but maybe that’s her personality type. Ide suggest if someone isn’t doing something correctly being a little quieter when reprimanding because your customers can overhear you speaking. The food is absolutely delicious.“

“What a great place. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. Staff cleared our plates to keep our table clear and clean. We had a wonderful time and appreciated not being rushed out. I totally recommend for a fun dinner. Thank You for a fun experience.“

“I had a really good experience. Food was delicious after so long we had this well cooked food. food was spicy, the coleslaw was creamy The tacos was sweet at the first bite and spicy kick in, It was really good combination. chicken fried rice was spicy with sticky rice Very tasty. Will definitely buy it again.“

“Big place to celebrate birthday“
