43 Best Korean Restaurants near San Pedro

“Of all the locations in the South Bay, this flame broiler is the best one. Food was excellent as always, the service was very friendly, and the place is clean.

But above all, their sauce is out for people to get as they wish. Not all locations do this. This makes such a huge difference. Thanks!“

“muy bueno, lo recomiendo al 100, comida koreana.“

“el mejor restaurant de comida Koreana.... regresaré!!“

“We came here because we were craving gopchang and makchang, and everything was so good! The side dishes were fresh and nicely prepared, and the gopchang, makchang, and daechang were all absolutely delicious. Definitely coming back. 100% recommend!“

“So far I have tried the spicy Korean fried chicken bowl, pork belly bowl and japchae, all of delicious. Always fresh. My toddler only likes japchae from an AYCE kbbq in Garden Grove, but she has approved of yours. 10/10 every time. I am always greeted with a smile. I will keep coming back.“

“Used the app to order and it was ready by the time I drove over to pick it up. Parking was an issue and I had to park on the street and walk over to the restaurant.

Glad to receive points as the closer location doesn’t provide points which is odd because you can order on the app from that location and the app even says “you’ll receive points for this order” and you don’t.“

“A clearly family run delicious soup restaurant that have been several times. The seollungtang rivals that of hanbat without having to go all the way to korea town and they serve other things which i always wanted from hanbat. Their bossam is great with raw nappa which i love and the haegaengguk which also has saved me post a hard night. Highly underrated korea restaurant“

“a LOT of food for the price. great customer service.“

“I kid you not, this is some of the best food I've ever had, full stop. The mala xiang guo is a must try, it is so perfect, I've already had it twice in the past week! Also highly highly recommend the dakgangjeong, pork ribs, and guo bao rou. Truly every single thing on this menu is a hit, and the owners are so incredibly friendly and welcoming. This place is the best!!!“

“Stopped by because I wanted to try the rose mala Tteokbokki, IT DID NOT Disappoint!! It was sooooo good. We also go the bulgogi bowl, bomb. Also got the sweet & spicy wings, also super good.
Server was super friendly!! 10/10 coming again :D“

“I travel far ... just to have my pre birthday lunch.. thank you so much for such courteous attention and most delicious food 😋“

“Lately, I’ve been very into kimbap. However, I can be pretty picky about it in terms of what’s inside. There’s sooooo many options for what kind of kimbap you want. For me, I’m really into the beef kimbap. Kimbap Paradise has the best beef kimbap, in my opinion.

The restaurant is located in Torrance, super close to my home. It’s in a busy shopping center so there’s plenty of parking. I easily just call in my order and pick it up. It’s usually ready within 10/15 mins depending on how busy they are. I never dined in, but there’s lost of seating inside to do so. If you’re not a kimbap fan, they have many other Korean dishes to choose from.“

“It was about that time again 4 lunch and I was around the area of Gardena and I found this gem sups chicken OMG one of the best chicken sandwiches tender combos and drink I've seen in a while you definitely must come and support because 👁️ will be coming for their once a month breakfast sandwich 🥪🥪.....“

“My hand was for a size reference. This place is so good! I've been going often for lunch and the quality is consistent! I ordered the spicy bulgogi bento. It comes with a side salad, kimchi, pickled radish,cucumber,noodles, gyoza(1), rice and miso soup for $20. Can't beat a fresh meal (-:<“

“Love to eat here . People are friendly. Hit the spot ! Thank you“

“Got Doordash here on a whim and OH MY GOD. Its amazing! So freakin delicious.
Was hesitant about how expensive it was but they give you HUGE portions. Took us two days to finish our leftovers.
We got their Spicy Galbi and Gangnam Style flavors and we were fan girling the whole time it was so good. My personal favorite was the Spicy Galbi flavor.
The wings were crunchy but not too thick, full of flavor, so fresh and sticky in a good way and oh gosh, just writing this, my mouth is watering lol.
Can't wait to order again! They deserve all the praise in the world. I'm pretty sure these were the best wings I've ever had in my life.“

“This is a pretty solid korean place to grab korean dishes witg tons of side dishes. I really like the staff and how kind they were. The food was good, nothing brillkiant but hit the spot. The atmosphere was clean and alright. Their 냉면 was good. Prices a bit high though. Thats where I take off the star.“

“Truly my new favorite Korean restaurant in LA area. Everything, from the banchan starters to the service, was perfect. I ordered their mushroom tofu soup, beef bibibamp, seafood pancake, and mackarel — every dish was flavorful and steaming hot. So comforting, I felt like I was in a halmeoni’s kitchen! Already can’t wait to return to try more of their extensive menu :)“

“The Crispy Chicken wings were juicy and delicious!! I paired them with their potatoe salad which was soooo good!! They make wingstop look real sad. I can't wait to try their other flavors. I've finally found my new wing go to home!!😋“

“excelente Servicio.. Satisfecha 👏❤️“

“I love how ethnic markets: Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and Mexican supermarkets in So. Cal included a food court where everyone can sample ethnic dishes. At this H Mart, I ordered Hot Stone Bibimbap. It arrived with three sides, and two sauces. Yummy doesn’t even begin to describe this dish. All the raw vegetables were freshly sliced, warmed by the heat of the stone and rice. The cooked vegetables were perfectly cooked-maintaining their bright green color. I prefer low salt, so I just poured in a little bit of the sauce. While sitting down to eat my lunch, I thought about groceries to pick up from H-Mart. I’m a little surprised that this food court with 4 eateries wasn’t busier during the week. Bring your appetite.“

“We discovered this chain when we were in Palm Desert and so happy to know that it now is in the South Bay near where we live.

I would love to go to a location that has happy hour like the one in Palm Desert so hint hint if that can happen but legit great quality great food very happy.“

“This is hands down the best restaurant in Los Angeles! (Torrance)I had been feeling sick for a while and completely lost my appetite, but after eating here, I finally enjoyed food again. It honestly brought my appetite back.
I've tried almost every item on the menu, and every single dish has been amazing. The food is outstanding, the service is exceptional, and the quality is consistently excellent. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this place.
I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. If you're looking for one of the best dining experiences in LA(torrance), this is the place to go!“

“(Translated by Google) The catering overall was delicious and neat. Especially kimchi and fruit salad. Japchae. Tricolor is the best!!?(Original)캐더링 전체적으로 맛있고 정갈했습니다. 특히 겉절이 김치와 과일 사라다. 잡채. 삼색전 최고에요!!?“

“I picked here because it was open late and glad I made that decision. I like the menu because it split into prices. Super affordable because the portion is sooo huge. On top, full of flavor and delicious.
I got the combo B with chicken and pitcher of beer. Chicken was crunchy and tasty.
The Sausage platter was sooo huge has a hint of kick but for people who can't eat spicy can still enjoy.
Service was awesome and I think the owner was there and he made sure everybody was happy, felt welcome and enjoyed it here.“

“These guys do a great job with everything. I love all of their hot sauces.“

“불맛 짬뽕 맛집~~“

“very nice foods all are fresh especially the kimchi“

“Moon bowls are my go-to delivery food. Healthy, great care taken with meal prep and a perfect portion for me. Affordable and nutritious. They also have great customer service and are very engaged, patient and responsive to text messages. I don’t think they have a physical location and this is more like a ghost kitchen, which took a minute for me to understand at first. But since then I have ordered from them at least a dozen times and introduced them to other locals who also love their food. Hope they stay with us in LBC forever!“

“Delicious! My favorite Saturday lunch spot, in recent months. Highly recommend their beef & chicken plate! (I usually get it with white rice 🍚 & lite veggies.). I would note that the Dr. Pepper dispenser hasn't been working, lately, and sometimes the syrup is low in the other fountain drinks.“

“I got the chicken and beef plate. I waited for about 5 minutes and was pleasantly surprised by the portion size when it came out. Everything was fresh and tasted great! Definitely one of the best budget friendly Asian fusion spots I’ve been to. Worth its money big time!“

“Nice selection. Good quality“

“Local Favorite. Excellent Customer Service and Delicious Food. Fast turn around. Owner ran / present. *completely different experience from Pho Hana on Hawthorne (Torrance) All staff are helpful, polite and friendly. Highly recommend. My pho craving was satisfied without having to drive all the way out to Gardena / Westminster.“

“I was craving the black bean noodles but didnt want to drive all the way to KTown. This place hits the spot. Good quality and flavor. Fresh ingredients. Not too salty or oily. We also tried the Shrimp Fried rice which was 10/10. The sweet and sour pork was served separate from the sauce which is perfect because then it doesnt get soggy. The pieces were perfectly fried in clean oil (you can tell if its been sitting around...these were made FRESH!). And best of all, the gentleman at the counter is always SO friendly! Definitely worth a trip even though its in a food court, don't knock it.“

“I've always wanted to come here and I'm glad I finally pulled the trigger. I can't believe it took me this long because I'd be a frequent customer many years ago if I had come sooner.

This restaurant opened over 40 years ago in the 1980s. They have not changed their seasonings or recipes since then. A lot of their sauces and kimchee is made in house (and has not changed in over 40 years). This is probably the best Japanese BBQ experience I've ever had and I've had A LOT of BBQ experiences.

My favorites are items you typically cannot get anywhere else. Their raw beef liver sashimi and their raw minced beef are amazing. It's really hard to find these creations. If you like liver, then you'll be an instant fan. If you're a little squeamish then you can always grill it a bit before you eat it lol

Their cuts of meat are also a league above the rest. I loved them all! Their wagyu tongue, negi tongue, gokujo kalbi, tokujo ro-su, and pork belly are all worth writing home about.

They also serve vegetables and salad to go with the BBQ. We also tried their yukkejan soup which is their spicy beef soup. It was very tasty. Savory and not too salty. Very well balanced. I'd eat this alone on a cold rainy day.

The ambiance is busy with moderate noise. Lots of Japanese locals were there that night and were simply having an amazing time socializing.

Overall 10/10. Definitely coming back!“

“This is by far the best all you can eat AYCE Kbbq restaurant in Torrance. The staff were incredibly attentive and A++ for the cleanliness of the restaurant. 😊 I really like that most of the common cookable meats are out on the salad bar as well as vegetables, appetizers, all the sauces, fruits 🤤 all readily available to everyone - so you can easily get more. 😉 I highly recommend trying the beef belly, beef rib finger and marinated short ribs each cut was tender and flavorful. The cheesecorn, shrimp tempura, tofu soup and baked mussels were delicious side options and cooked to perfection. 😊💯“

“This flame broiler was a good experience today. Food was fresh, tasty, and competently prepared. The chicken had a little gristle, but not too bad. Everything else (beef, onions, rice) was great. Service was reasonably friendly. Restaurant was clean.

Let’s talk about sauce. Sauces were behind the counter, but the cups were filled up AND given out generously. This makes such a big difference. Thank you.“

“Bull BBQ is very tasty, always a great choice. The staff are very nice and helpful, you’ll enjoy a nice meal and they do everything to make your meal a great dining experience. I’m always too stuffed for dessert, next time I’ll try to save room. The prices are very reasonable and the menu is quite extensive. The AYCE Menu A is a great choice, but Menu B has some special options that elevate your meal to something very special. They also have other dishes to add onto your meal, all this and the included banchan “Korean Pickled Dishes” make for a delicious meal. Every table has very good ventilation, so it’s always a nice dining experience.“

“The best tasting food and best ingredients for the menu items. Fred“

“New favorite place to eat in Wichita. amazing food and amazing service. 10 out of 10“

“Ko Ryo Jung Restaurant is one of my favorite spots for Korean BBQ! The AYCE is very affordable, and the quality of the meat is surprisingly good for the price. Everything tasted fresh and well-marinated, and there were plenty of options to choose from.

The servers are friendly, attentive, and quick to change the grill and bring refills. The whole experience felt welcoming and comfortable.

Plus, there’s free parking, which makes it even more convenient. Great value for the quality — I’ll definitely be back!“

“Fresh lobster was delicious!“
