21 Best Korean Restaurants near San Ramon

“I’ve been a regular here since opening day, and it’s easily my favorite lunch spot in San Ramon! Their kimbap is always incredibly fresh—I especially love the variety with the mini rolls and triangle kimbap. Their new kimchi triangle is a total game-changer and a must-try for any fan of spicy, fresh flavors. Beyond the food, the staff is always super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend for a quick, delicious lunch! 😋“

“Fusion done right! I unfortunately couldn't eat our meal until I get home but that did not matter, the flavor, texture its all there. I was also hesitant to get the Ube horchata cause I didn't think it would work together and I do not like horchata, but it's darn good. Worth the 25 min drive from Walnut Creek.“

“Please be more mindful about updating your holiday hours. Google showed the restaurant as open and DoorDash was still accepting orders, but when I arrived, the sign said ‘Closed for Thanksgiving.’ This caused inconvenience and could be avoided by keeping online hours updated. Thank you.“

“Delicious food and outstanding service ! Our waiter did an absolutely fantastic job, very attentive and friendly. My partner and i enjoyed everything about this place! Food is 🔥 20/10 😋😋 would recommend this place 1000%
That new Rose Ricecake dish is so creamy and ricecakes soft and delectable 👌“

“Great Korean food! I’m so glad they didn’t compromise on the authentic taste even though they are not in a heavily Korean/asian area. The server was friendly and warm even though he was the only one there. He served everyone with a smile on his face which was great!

I’ll be going here every time I miss Korean food.“

“Awesome food and presentation. Friendly service!“

“The Korean fried chicken was delicious. The staff was a big help. They helped me pick out a good bottle of cold sake.“

“Don't mind my child's photo bombing hand, but it's a reference for how big their servings are I suppose. Most items are in the $20 range, but the servings are huge, so I think that makes it worth it.

5 stars also because I would like this spot in general to do well as I am a fan of food courts. I would like to try out the other restaurants here as well. But all that said, I thought the food was pretty good as well. My family enjoyed the kimbap, jajangmyun, soondubu, and teoppokki.

It was completely empty when I came, so the seating was comfortable. But if this spot gets popular, that'll be a problem as there are only like 4 tables. I suppose it's more like a takeout food court though.“

“Thank you so much to the staff. The food was comforting and delicious. The banchan was tasty and flavorful, the beef brisket soup is great, the ddukbokgi has a good flavor, the bibimbap has high-quality ingredients, etc. The staff are working hard and more people should come here. My family and I have been here multiple times. The staff were nice enough to take us in 20 minutes before they closed.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was a DoorDash order, so I can’t rate the atmosphere or in-person service since I didn’t dine in. That said, the food itself was excellent.

I ordered the Bulgogi toast and a dalgona coffee. The Bulgogi toast was delicious. The brioche was soft, sweet, and fluffy on the inside with a perfectly crisp exterior, and the sandwich was made really well.

The dalgona coffee was very strong per my request, which I loved. Bold, rich, and exactly what I was hoping for.“

“I only got 8 ban chan, that's still ok. Just the side dishes alone made coming here worth it. The Yuk gae Jang spicy beef soup was very delicious, I use it as a barometer to determine the level of the chef kind of like you can use plain fried rice to determine the level of a Chinese chef.

1/2026- The potato ban chan is my personal favorite, followed up by the bean sprouts and kim chee.

Bright atmosphere, hardly any of the customers here were speaking English. Strongly recommend this place.“

“The sweet rice drink♡ bingsoo♡ kimbap♡♡ can't wait to go back and try more!!“

“Amazing! I will definitely be going back again soon“

“Fresh ingredients, we love the option to grill, you can’t go wrong. Wait staff is awesome and accommodating.“

“Although it's a bit of a trip from home, my family truly loves this chicken. The flavor is simply fantastic! I totally recommend giving it a try. Plus, the staff is wonderfully kind and attentive. You're definitely going to enjoy this place!“

“Best jajang around“

“Love taking my family here. Wide tables, perfect for families and friends. This chicken is to die for. I honestly don’t know how they get it so perfectly and evenly crispy while being super moist inside. It’s a true art. Pricing is great for what you get. Fries are also very good and crunchy. The place has a nice and comfy feel to it. Sometimes they have only one person servicing which could be better but most of the time it’s perfectly fine.“

“So good and so dangerous being right down the street… The honey butter dusted fried chicken is like if Crispy Crunchy and farmer’s market kettle corn had a beautiful baby. Do yourself a favor and get some spicy kimchi rice with your chicken for that hot sauce style heat on the side. Bomb!“

“Great meal tonight with the wife. I had the Tofu Bibibop in a stone bowl. My wife had Tofu Soup. Both were fresh and delicious. The side dishes looked and tasted great. Service was friendly too. We would like to come back someday to try more items from their menu. Thanks for the nice evening.“

“Food: Never thought we’d be able to find such authentic Korean food here! Everything we ordered is good and definitely well seasoned as it should be like in Korea.
We’re a bit confused when we’re ordering the spicy pork. They have 2 options on the menu, one with rice and one without. There wasn’t further confirmation so we ended up getting one with rice but still works for us.

Service: they are so warm and welcoming!

Ambiance: it’s a small restaurant but very clean and nice.“

“Fun and delicious! Excellent dogs!

Had the Monster Double Potato, which is about as crazy as the options get. Perfectly cooked. Chewy, crispy, and gooey. Solid hotdog on the inside, which some counter-style places don't seem to care about when they load it with so many toppings. Highly recommend this for hotdog fans!

Atmosphere is very casual and there are only a couple of seats, so a larger group / order will need to find another spot to chow down“
