28 Best Korean Restaurants in Sacramento

““Doma,” a small Korean-owned restaurant on Folsom blvd, is a hidden gem for those living in Sacramento. They haven’t been open for long but the energy and atmosphere of the restaurant is vibrant and young. The menu has a variety of options and I am happy to say that there is no wrong option. I ordered the cold noodles and it tasted so good, I had to get it twice. Overall, I would definitely come here again next time I visit Sacramento.“

“Southside Super was such a fun surprise. Tucked away but full of energy, this spot blends Korean and Vietnamese flavors into dishes that feel both authentic and creative. I started with their Korean fried chicken, and it was hands-down some of the best I’ve had in Sacramento - crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and perfectly seasoned. Then I tried their pho, and the broth was rich, aromatic, and deeply comforting. It was clear that everything had been slow-cooked with care. What I loved most was the way Southside Super brought together bold, street-food-inspired flavors in a way that still felt elevated. The vibe of the restaurant was lively, with great music and a welcoming staff that made the whole experience even better. Our server was helpful in recommending dishes, and I’m so glad I listened because each plate came out better than the last. This is the type of restaurant that makes you want to come back with friends so you can order a bunch of things to share. The flavors were exciting, the portions generous, and the atmosphere made the whole night feel like a celebration.“

“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.“

“Delicious food! Cooking it ourselves was cool too, but was getting frustrated that our grill got replaced 2ce for every serving. Like the grill just got to temp and seasoned, we just wanted to cook 1 serving all the way through before he made us swap,. i know yall wanna keep it clean, but relax a bit yall lol. Still amazing place, definitely going back“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“A fantastic dining experience from start to finish! The service was impeccable, and our server made excellent suggestions for our meal. The food was absolutely delicious—especially the spicy squid stir-fry and the perfectly grilled beef. The ambiance was elegant yet cozy, with beautiful Korean-inspired décor that added to the experience. I’m so glad I found this gem!“

“The food is really good and I was surprised by the number of selections on their menu. The only reason I couldn’t give 5 stars was because of the service. My server was often disengaged even when directly speaking with me. It was like his thoughts were at another table. For example “what would you guys like” and “is there anything else I could get you guys” and it was just me, one person. All in all I had a good time and I will probably be back.“

“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.“

“Simply a marvelous surprise. Could well have been the tastiest restaurant meal I’ve ever eaten… it was that good.“

“I don't go there often enough but now I'm thinking I have my favorite will everything is good if you know what to order. People who know Korean food or Asian food will have no problem there, Don't order anything and then say I didn't want this, or it's not what I ordered stay away they don't deserve the drama they are good people serving you I love this place when I go I'm always happy there“

“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)“

“Quick korean bite. Always good service Always fresh food.
We are hard working mom&dad and sometimes we don't have time to cook food for the kids and we come here and problem gets solved. It gets little pricey but now days everything is expensive.

I have to try the 짜장면 & 짬뽕 next time !“

“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.“

“The bacon breakfast burrito changed my life. Perfection inside of a tortilla. And it’s nice that there’s an option for an affordable cup of coffee if you don’t feel like treating yourself to their fancier options.
Street parking in the nearby neighborhood is a tough since most the streets are “permit only” but keep an eye on the signs because some of them are 1 or 2 hour parking without a permit ??“

“Very clean. Friendly staff. Trendy atmosphere. There's only one size for their drink (no need to tell the cashier the size you want). All their drinks are delicious. They sometimes host a special events. I highly recommend DeLuna Dessert Cafe.“

“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 .“

“Not a typical food establishment set up - it’s on the ground floor of a (new, bright, modern) government/office building and as such its open times are more focused on the work week. I work nearby so love having this as a convenient lunch option. Food has always been tasty. My go-to is the Veggie Bop - their tofu is so good, and a favorite of coworkers.“

“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.“

“Staff great service, great venue. Great 😃 atmosphere to enjoy and music is great.“

“Food was great! I recommend this venue for great tasty food!“

“The Yanchea is so delicious and the chicken is so crunchy in the outside and the chicken is so tasty and soft and tender in the inside . And i love the seasoned french fries .“

“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.“
