17 Best Korean Restaurants in San Diego

“Best korean in New Hampshire! authentic korean. this is not korean bbq, though they do have kalbi. my favorite is soondubu soup, stone pot bibimbap, and japchae. I get it without egg and no meat. i enjoy dining in for the stone pot that crisps the rice, but also enjoy take out. everything is wrapped up good and safe. my family manages a severe nut allergy and eat here safely weekly.“

“My roommate heard I was meeting a friend at our favourite Bonchon for lunch and persuaded me to come here instead. When she recommends food, I am never disappointed, and bonus that this is closer to work and home, too! We ordered three flavours to try, and all were fantastic. My favourite was between Saigon and Honey Jam. My friend loved the Sweet and Spicy. The chicken breading was light and crispy, inside hot and juicy, fried to perfection. Loved the cute little menu holders on each table. Welcome to the neighborhood and see you again soon!

Parking: The parking lot can get busy at peak times, but I’ve always been able to find a spot near my destination.“

“The banchan provided was delicious and the bibimbap in the hot stone bowl was outstanding. Also ordered the soon dubu haejungguk which was amazing and perfect to finish off a chilly night. The restaurant was very clean and had entertainment in the form of Korean mukbang videos which was hilarious to watch. Tucked away spot in the busiest part of convoy that should definitely be on your list of places to try next.

Parking: Small parking lot that’s shared between 4-5 restaurants makes it hard to find a spot. May have to park on adjacent street.“

“The food and service here never disappoint! Everything is always on point, and An, our waitress, is the sweetest, she really goes above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The soy garlic wings were incredibly delicious, packed with so much flavor that we couldn’t get enough. We always leave here happy and satisfied!“

“Just keep in mind I came here on a Monday at 6 PM so we didn't have to wait for a table or battle for parking. This parking lot was not turned into a paid lot try. It's where Chorus and Hive are. It's still fairly new so the menu is slightly limited. We saw photos of dishes on the wall but were told they were not available until next year. The jjajangmyeon was slightly watery. I got the "meat" one so there were strips of grilled pork. My husband got the "spicy" one which was green chili on top. It was not crazy spicy according to him but it was not that painful spicy. We got the chili shrimp and I really liked that. It was crispy, fried jumbo shrimp over with sweet chili sauce on a bed of cabbage. It had enough heat making your lips feel some heat. I liked it even though it's not a fancy dish. If I don't have to come on a busy weekend night I'm down to come back.

Oh just be ready to order on really slow tablets but your order gets through as long you're patient with the tablets. The tables are far enough where you feel like you're not on top of each other like at other restaurants in Convoy.“

“We had the beef bone soup and the spicy pork bowl. Both were delicious! The sides were yummy as well. It was super busy but we only had to wait about 5 minutes before we were seated. They have a good selection. The dishes are numbered so it’s easy to order. The staff was friendly as well. I can’t wait to go again to try other items on the menu.“

“Delicious food and great atenttion“

“One of our favorite spots for Korean Fried Chicken! Always so crispy and freshly made. Juicy too! Customer service has not failed us so far and hopefully it never does. They have a good amount of flavors and options to try so don’t be shy!“

“Yum! This spot in Convoy is a must go-to especially for a casual and/or group meal! The price here is right, food is delicious and abundant, free parking, huge menu, and the sweetest lady to help us through our meal today!

I love the assortment of banchan with each meal! The japchae and kimchi were so fresh and yummy.

We wanted to try items outside their usual bbq menu and I am so glad we did. From the jjajangmyeon noodles (my dad was eating this up - so good), to the braised beef rib soup (meat was following off the bone), to the dolsot bibimbap (generous portions) to even the steamed egg and cheese corn - everything was so good.

The service was great. Even though it was only one lady serving and hosting, food still came out quickly and she was so sweet showing us which sauces were for what dish.

Parking was a little hectic today for some reason but there are plenty of spots in the area. It was nice to see this place packed even on a Monday afternoon!“

“Service was quite fast, the staff was very welcoming and friendly, the food came out very quickly

Great pleas to hang out with friends for a little treat, I'll be sure to come back and try other things on the menu

“My favorite Nashville hot chicken sandwich and tenders!!!!!!“

“I had seen this place on insta and had been wanting to try it. We order a half chicken with the signature sauce and it was very delicious! 10/10 The sauce was good and the chicken was tasty. We also had the onion rings, I liked them but there was nothing special 8/10. The cheese balls were good, but not my fav since they were sweet on the outside and I am personally not a fan of sweet. Unfortunately, many of their items were sold out, many of them the popular ones, and which I was hoping to try. Other than that it was a great meal, I would recommend and will be back ☺️

Kid-friendliness: The have chairs for babies.“

“Great to share in good company!“

“This is our comfort restaurant in San Diego. Whenever I’m feeling down, I come to K Cuisine. It just has such a cozy vibe - it’s never that busy so we always sit in the same table, the server is super nice and always has a smile on her face, and the food is like a warm home-cooked meal. Our favorites are the bossam, soondae, and soups. Their hot pot is also great but keep in mind it’s a big portion and meant for maybe 3 people. Also if you’ve never tried Terra before, get it! It’s my favorite light beer ever since I first tried it here.“

“I love going to this location. Parking can be a bit tricky because of the flow of traffic from the street, but the store is easy to navigate and all the staff are nice. Sometimes the music playing over the speakers can be a bit loud, so if you have hearing sensitivity I do recommend something to dampen the noise.“

“Standard somisomi. The taiyaki isn't crunchy and if you order it with ice cream it isn't hot. You need a separate order for you to get the hot pastry and cold ice cream.

The fillings aren't the highest quality but you don't really care. It's shaped like a fish. Strawberry milk is addictive but a bit much for 1 person so best to share.“
