50 Best Korean Restaurants near Stanton

“My parents, who love loach stew, always stop by and eat it when they come to Calico. My parents admit that it is a restaurant that is thicker and better than most loach stew restaurants in Korea. The side dishes are prepared well and with sincerity, and everything is delicious. The servers are all friendly and I don't know if it's the owner, but there is a man there who is really friendly and makes me feel good every time I come.“

“If you’re looking for a solid breakfast spot inside Rodeo 39, Egg Yo in Stanton is a must-try. They open early at 7 AM, which is perfect if you’re trying to beat the crowds or just need a good start to your day.
I ordered the spam and egg sandwich, and it did not disappoint. The milk bun was super soft with just the right amount of sweetness—it really tied everything together. You can tell everything is made fresh, and that quality comes through in every bite.
Honestly, everything was bomb. Simple menu, done right. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more.“

“I was staying in a hotel nearby and saw this restaurant on google maps so I wasn’t sure how it would be. But honestly, this place was really excellent. One of the better Korean BBQ experiences I’ve had. All of the food was very fresh and tasty. They gave us a huge variety of dishes and I ate until I was very full, but I still felt great afterwards. On top of that, the staff were very nice. Great experience.“

“First time to my sound chicken with friends the service was excellent , she (the Manager) is very friendly and helpful. The fired chicken are so good crunchy and the french fried so tasty. Definitely will come back highly recommend . A+++++“

“Came with a friend as a play date with our kids my and we had so much food we couldn’t finish! Got the dooki combo. The ddukbokki was served on a heating dish so it would stay hot throughout the meal. My kids devoured the dooki rice and cheese balls. The chicken was the sleeper hit though... So crispy and piping hot and perfectly seasoned.“

“Delighted with their service and food. Serving is perfectly good for 2 and with reasonable price.“

“This has been a regular spot of mine even after I moved out of the immediate area. The chicken box is a great little meal & my favorite but the grilled bowl is also delicious. Actually everything I've had here is delicious and the evening vibes are fantastic. Low lights & music that doesn't distract from conversation. Did I mention the disco ball?“

“There is no other substitute. The bone in Wings of Fire are exactly what they advertise. I am a rare person that has principles. I demand that my food puts up a good fight. Wings of Fire never lets me down. With pickled radishes and Soju you can’t go wrong. The other flavors are always great. Don’t you sell out on me BB.q“

“Awesome“

“This historic old Taco Bell building has had the makeover of a lifetime. Not only a fun little dining room but the food was amazing!!! Came in for the soft opening and will be back very soon. The Katsu and spicy curry was wonderful a nice bite but not too spicy. The dumpling's, cooked to perfection. Don’t pass this little gem by.“

“Love this spot

We come into town for this food

It taste great

We get the half and half bulgolgi bow

Their kimchi is awesome their flavors are awesome and actually spicy“

“The food was delicious and made to order! I love the refreshing ingredients! It's a little hole in the wall restaurant, bit some of the best foods come from places like these. Would highly recommend giving Lunch Bang a try. Just note, the place is small and it doesn't accommodate a lot of people.“

“Starting with the food. I got the fresh salmon, popping salmon, fluffy egg, and grilled spicy pork. I liked the fluffy egg and grilled spicy pork the best.
Fresh salmon is alright. It is what it is with basically poke quality salmon. Light and refreshing.
Popping salmon has like sort of a buldak/rameny flavor for the marinade which I didn’t like but my partner liked. Not too spicy.
Grilled spicy pork is fairly typical dwaegi gogi, which i like so i’m a little biased. i thought it was good with the yubu. Plenty of pork marinade seeping through the rice. Not very spicy.
Fluffy egg did not have as much roe as the picture lead me to believe but it was good. It also had a few salmon roe for some reason but I liked it. Nice and savory. Egg was wet-ish and soft. nice.

Prices are fairly reasonable. I’d say 3-4 would be a pretty filling meal for the average person. about $5-7 each yubu after tax. I’ve never seen a yubu restaurant before. Vibes are kind of grab and go but they have a decent amount of seating for like groups of 4-5 maybe (like 3-4 tables)

Pretty okay neat looking modern place on the inside. I might try again if I was craving something in particular. I wanted to try the Garlic Butter Crab that other reviews were talking about.“

“Hidden gem, great for lunch and they do catering. I ordered multiple items for catering for a party, and my guest kept telling me how amazing the food was. Three of my guests went to eat at the restaurant the next week and again told me how amazing it was.“

“I went to celebrate my milestone birthday.
food, service and atmosphere was superb.
it is on the pricey side but I think it is worth.
i didn't tell them it's was my birthday but somehow they figured out and brought me seaweed soup which is a traditional soup you eat on your birthdays.
it was so nice of them to do that.
i highly recommend if you want to experience high end Korean restaurant.“

“This place was great. It was empty when we walked in hopefully they usually get more business because they definitely deserve to stay open. For me, the service was perfect, the guy welcomed us in and left us alone after that which is perfect since i’m shy. We got the pork cutlet kimbap and the rose tteokbokki. The tteok was perfectly chewy and so soft and great for me because i can’t handle a lot of spice. The pork cutlet in the kimbap was so so yummy. We’ll definitely come back.“

“Excellent and authentic food. Very friendly and informative service. Casual atmosphere. The restaurant was empty at lunchtime on a Saturday, but service was quick and attentive. Meat came out sizzling on cast iron platters. Banchan were very tasty. Refreshing cold chewy buckwheat noodles.“

“Everything about this place was amazing, the lady at the counter is really sweet and super nice. The food was bomb, generous portions and every single bite I took was amazing; even reheated the food tasted 10/10. Would recommend this place to anyone looking to have a wonderful lunch.“

“great food and prices, service was awesome“

“Place is amazing with great food and wonderful food! The bowls they have here are outstanding and give you so much food for the price you pay per entree. Highly recommend this to anyone in the area and/or visiting the plaza and want to get a glorious meal.“

“This was one of the best meals I’ve ever had in my life. I had the tofu beef stew medium spice with all the fixings on the side. I also had an ice cold Cass beer which I have had before. Bohye was very attentive and gave me great recommendations. I will definitely be back next time I’m in the area.“

“All the banchan tasted fresh and tasted like it was made by a korean mom. The food was good, clean and simple. The seafood pancake was crispy and on point. The beef soup with the glass noodles was delicious 👌 pair with lemon Jinro sochu. You'll thank later. The portions of food they serve are out of control but the quality and taste is by far worth the price which is very reasonable. I would recommend of you are visiting from oit of town, must try. Service is above and beyond and the attention to detail is incredible as well.“

“The quality of the pork belly was excellent, and the service of having the staff grill the meat for us made the experience very comfortable. The variety of pickled side dishes was impressive and paired perfectly with the meat. Both the doenjang-jjigae and kimchi-jjigae were absolutely delicious. The restaurant itself was spacious and very clean. One thing I wish was that the staff could have been a bit friendlier, but overall, if you’re looking for authentic Korean-style pork BBQ, I’d definitely recommend this place.“

“My first time and very satisfied. I ordered pork soup with rice and it is soooooo good!“

“Their Jjampong and Jajangmyeon are truly excellent. I ordered the Beef Brisket Bean Sprout Jjampong and the Jajangmyeon, and both dishes exceeded my expectations. I am definitely looking forward to revisiting this place! The only downside is the waiting time, as the restaurant is frequently crowded and has limited seating.“

“Best galbitang I’ve ever had in my life in the world, including any that I’ve tried in Korea. Portions were great, service was great, prices very reasonable especially considering how California can be. 10/10 would recommend this place, super comforting food.“

“Very good food & service.
Packed house even though we missed the Sunday dinner rush--we were seated smack in front of the wall & painted-over outlets, etc., very odd, do not recommend that table.
Wish it were closer to us.“

“I come here almost every day during lunch, and the staff is always welcoming and kind. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and satisfying without feeling heavy. Great portions, quick service, and a clean, healthy option I can count on during the workday. Highly recommend.“

“The food is alright. The one I had in LA was much better!“

“My friend and I got their spicy marinated crab and it was soooo good. The perfect texture and flavor. It wasn’t too spicy and it paired so well with rice and seaweed. We also got the beef soup with dumplings and rice cake which was also amazing as well! The workers here are so kind too“

“Simple Korean comfort food set in a cute little restaurant setting-

Got the Korean katsu meal which comes with soup , along with a roll of bulgogi kimbap and my husband got their combo set with ddukbokki and kimbap, which came with two dumplings.

Simple, fresh and delicious with kind and welcoming servers“

“The gamjatang was absolutely delicious. The broth was rich and flavorful, and the pork was tender and full of flavor. It was the perfect comfort food, especially on a cool day. I would definitely order it again.
And JJol noodle !!!“

“All the side dishes and main menus here are hands-down the best among all Korean restaurants in Orange County.
The neat and heartfelt side dishes,
and the main dishes made without skimping on any ingredients, are all truly delicious.
Our family is sincerely a loyal regular at Hanmi Restaurant.“

“Tang was exactly what we were craving after a night out. The portions were generous, and the side dishes complemented the meal well. Since the soups already include rice noodles, I skipped out on the extra rice.

We ordered the soondae guk and the galbi tang. The galbi was rich and flavorful. The highlight of the meal was the soondae (blood sausage). The texture was different, filled with a mixture of pork blood and noodles.

Overall, it was a great dining experience and a perfect choice for a morning comfort meal. Definitely a spot worth returning to.“

“We were starving after a long walk and luckily found this amazing Korean spot nearby. From the moment we walked in, Chris made us feel welcome and took the time to explain everything since it was our first visit. The service was truly outstanding.

The food exceeded our expectations — all three dishes were absolutely delicious! The portions are generous, and we loved the variety of side dishes that come with the meal. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared.

We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone who loves great Korean food!“

“Cute place. The eel ubu was fantastic, very tender. The bulgogi and pork teriyaki ubu were also very good. Inari is a really fun form factor for these classic Korean and Japanese ingredients (it was new to me). I thought it would be messy but it stayed together very well.“

“Our family loves Kaju food.“

“Finally we came to this Korean restaurant tonight and knew that we had made the right decision. We tried their Bossum and Seafood pancake and it turned out they were really delicious. Our server was very friendly and professional. Their pricing is very reasonable. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this restaurant!“

“Ordered for the first time from their and it was great. Many more choices than other delivery apps and great prices too. Even had a call with the restaurant on items ordered. She was very helpful, kind, and supportive. Great food and great service! Thank you so much!!“

“Kind of a hidden hole in the wall spot a bit off of the main Garden Grove Koreatown strip.

Good set of 반찬 (side dishes) and the portions were large. I ordered the 갈비탕 (rib soup) and it had large pieces of meat that fell off the bone.“

“i like the food, big serving & it’s worth the price, i hope they willnot increase the price or lessen the service.“

“Went in today !! Gotta say the food was great .. had spicy beef soup and my wife had bulgogi and dumplings … was completely satisfied with this place !! Also we were the only 2 customers there .. which was shocking after having tasted the food … very delicious… how is this not a popular place ???“

“Highly recommended. The galbi short rib, kimchi pancake, soon tofu (especially the mushroom broth), and the banchan were all delicious. There was even a bonus ice cream, how delightful! The ambiance feels elegant and distinctly European with a chill vibe. Service was great. Will be returning!“

“Food was amazing and service was too“

“Everything was delicious for the price! I got the Menu B and the quality of the meats were superb, they gave us a good portion too. The side dishes were just as good! Love the self serve area cause they had sushi as well! Staff were friendly and quick with changing our grill! The restaurant itself was clean and the environment was not too loud so it was easy to talk in there. Totally worth the try!“

“The seafood pancake was incredibly delicious. Such fresh ingredients. The green onions were crunchy and thick. The octopus, fish, and shrimp flavors were the right combination of salty and sweet. The egg batter just perfectly seasoned. And that outside crunch...it spoke to my soul.“

“good food and staff friendly with always attentive to us customers. very quick always ready to replenish your plates“

“This is a small family own restaurant that provides very authentic Korean food. The location is a bit weird especially when you visit during the night.
At the parking lot, we hesitated and thought we might go to the wrong place. However, we love the food there. We ordered bul-nak jun-gol. The casserole is heartwarming especially eating in a winter night. The side dishes are also great. The variety combined with the octopus and bulgogi definitely gave us a nutritious and delicious meal. We will visit again when going to that area.“

“My family & I love this place! The food is delicious & they have kim chi fried rice & other items some place don’t offer. The staff is also super nice & you get free delicious ice cream! We’ve eaten at other places & it doesn’t come close to here . The price is so good in comparison too!“

“We got the combo and all of it was delicious. Love the beef kimbap, my man loved the beef spicy soup. The portions are pretty sizeable, had to take the tteoki-bokki home because we got full. For sure will return again and try their fried chicken.“
