10 Best Korean Restaurants in Riverside

“Great service, amazing food. I felt very welcome as a table of one, and was seated quickly. It was my first time, and the server was very accommodating and kind. They have such a wide variety of food here! 💜“

“I tried this place for the first time on 6/18/26 and I loved it! I recommend adding the cheese on either tteokbokki (idk if i spelt that right), and they taste delicious! Also, the cheesling fries are so bomb, I recommend dipping them into the og tteokbokki. I loved all of it. The og tteokbokki has flavor, I wouldnt say it’s spicy but I definitely liked it better than the rose! The rose reminded me of that buldak ramen haha. THE EMPLOYEES WERE REALLY NICE TOO! I think they were halal? Maybe call ahead, just in case. OKAY HAVE A NICE DAY!!“

“My son who's a JW North HS student, and I, tried the spicy ramen, chicken fried rice, and dumplings. Delicious 😋“

“All time favorite Korean restaurant. Highly recommend everyone to try the bibimbap, spicy rice cakes, and pancakes. Also love the banchan they serve. Everything is always delicious. Service is always fast and attentive. Great for bringing friends or just eating by yourself.“

“Such a great and unique food spot! Order a couple different dogs and a side. All were top notch and the staff was super friendly!“

“Everytime we come here we have no issues whatsoever with workers or the food. They always greet us with smiles and are happy to serve us. Today we came in and from the moment we ordered this worker was rude. She has blonde highlights and is always loud. When my daughter asked for extra teriyaki sauce, she told my daughter in a rude way that she can not give us everything we want and told her she will charge us for sauce. In all of the past experiences that we’ve had here, they’ve never had an issue with us asking for more extra sauce in fact they even gave us extra. I don’t mind paying for the sauce but I did not like her rudeness towards my daughter. Out of all the workers she is the only one that is always rude.“

“My wife and I stopped by Chimak House Riverside close to closing time, and we had a fantastic experience.

The meal started with the coleslaw and ranch, and honestly, they were so delicious that they could have been a meal on their own. I ordered the 6-piece wing plate with potatoes, and it definitely did not disappoint. The Lemon Pepper wings were absolutely on point, and the Sweet & Sour wings were just as flavorful.

My wife ordered the Original Ramen, and she described it as tasting like an extra-flavorful homemade chicken soup. It was comforting, rich, and exactly what she was hoping for.

What stood out the most was the service. Even though we arrived near closing time and placed an additional to-go order for the rest of our family, the staff still treated us with kindness, patience, and respect. They never made us feel rushed, and that level of hospitality really meant a lot.

Great food, generous service, and an overall wonderful experience. We’d definitely recommend Chimak House Riverside and will be coming back!“

“🤤 FAV ALL YOU CAN EAT SPOT IN RIVERSIDE. BEEN GOING HERE FOR YEARS. ALWAYS SATISFIED. GOOD PRICING.“

“Great service and food 🥘👌💯“

“I have stopped by off and on over the years. The food and service was always a hit or miss. I guess the restaurant is under new management. I met the new owners, a nice young couple, they both seem very passionate about their restaurant. That definitely shows. When I stopped by today, the greeting and service exceeded my expectations. Not only was I greeted with a smile but they were really helpful and patient with my little one, who couldnt seem to make up his mind. Than my food came out , and believe me when I say the steak bulgogi was so delicious, tender , and juicy. The real surprise was the chicken for me, I am not a big chicken fan but this location is definitely changing that for me. The Korean spicy chicken was so flavorful, and juicy. So much so I order a chicken bowl to go. Needless to say I will definitely be back, maybe even make it a weekly night visit for me and my little guy . He got the chicken and veggie bowl. We are definitely a fan of the chicken. Lol“
