7 Best Korean Restaurants near Valencia

“I love Korean beef tofu soup and I didn’t know it’s available here at SCV. We had a pleasant dining experience here at Lee’s Korean BBQ & Tofu House. Our favorites were the spicy pork and tteokbokki. The staff (I’m assuming she’s the daughter of the owner since the place looks like family-owned and run) was kind enough to adjust the spice level to accommodate my 9-year old daughter’s spice tolerance.

I recommend getting the combo (meat + half tofu soup). My eldest daughter liked her non-spicy dumpling tofu soup. The banchan could be better though.

The space and dining area is small and quite tight, but the staff are so friendly and welcoming.

We’ll definitely be back.“

“They have amazing rice bowl lunch specials - super affordable at just $6-$8! Options range from chicken katsu and spicy pork to bulgogi bowls. Sure, the portions're on the smaller side, but the flavors're incredible - easily comparable to those at good KBBQ spots. Everything's cooked to order & you can even see them grilling the meat in the back. Definitely a must-try for lunch!“

“I had low expectations for Korean fried chicken from a chain restaurant like Bonchon since I've actually been to Korea several times -- but boy was I wrong! The chicken was SO SO crispy and delicious. I ordered half an order of the garlic and and another half of the yangnyeom sauce -- they were both equally delicious! The fried chicken in Korea can't be beat, but if you're in the US, Bonchon is for you. The cashier, Noah, was helpful and friendly. The restaurant was clean. Great location in a little strip mall with plenty of parking. Go!!!“

“I was looking for a Korean restaurant around this area and found this place. I have been coming here for 3 weeks in a row. I highly recommend this place as food tastes authentic and the staff are very welcoming. This place is very clean. I am excited to try more foods on the menu.“

“I used to go here as a kid but it was Japanese, but the new Korean cuisine was top tier the food was good, service, and probably the best atmosphere I've witnessed highly recommend if your around the area looking for Korean cuisine to eat with family or friends. 👍👌“

“I am always trying to find a good KBBQ in the Santa Clarita area. I went for the first time tonight and we were sooooooo impressed!! Amazing Galbi!!!! All the meats were tender and seemed like great quality, which is hard to find at AYCE. Most importantly, the service was top notch. I’ve never had a waitress help cut the meat off bones and cook the meat at an AYCE. They were helping constantly and extremely attentive to our needs. This is the only place we will be going from now on in this area. THANK YOU for great kbbq!!!!!!!!“

“This was a takeout order .
In every flavor we have ordered, The bbq chicken is outstanding, always crunchy and juicy. (we haven't tried EVERY flavor. )
The reason I docked one point on service was only because sometimes they're done earlier than they say when ordering online. I recommend the spicy original flavor. It's our favorite!“
