29 Best Korean Restaurants in Aurora

“I’ve been coming to Silla Restaurant for many years, and it has always been consistently excellent. Galbi, bossam, and cold noodles have long been reliable choices here. But today, something genuinely stood out.

The flavors felt elevated—deeper, richer, and more refined than ever before. The galbi was perfectly balanced, tender, and full of that classic Korean depth. The bossam was clean, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. But what truly surprised me was the cold noodles.

The naengmyeon tasted noticeably more premium and authentic—the broth was richer, the balance sharper, and the texture spot-on. Every bite felt intentional and expertly done. Having lived in Korea, I have high standards for dishes like galbi and cold noodles, and this meal absolutely met (and exceeded) them.

It felt like the kitchen leveled up. The food today wasn’t just good—it was phenomenal. If you’ve been here before, it’s worth coming back. And if you haven’t, this is the kind of place that reminds you what truly great Korean food should taste like.“

“Great lunch and fast service. Arrived at 1:30. No wait.“

“Food was absolutely amazing!!!! Highly recommend!!! Kimchi Rice awesome!“

“AMAZING Food and even better SERVICE!! Highly recommend!!!“

“My friends and I came here after work and had such a great time. Everything about the experience was fun and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The food was honestly so good, and we ended up enjoying every single dish we ordered.

The staff were incredibly nice and friendly, and they really helped make our first visit special. Since it was our first time trying different flavors of soju and rice wine, they patiently recommended drinks for us, which we really appreciated. It made the whole experience feel more personal and comfortable.

My personal favorites were the tteokbokki and the half jjambong and jjajangmyeon, so flavorful and satisfying!

Definitely a place I’d come back to with friends. Highly recommend!“

“I was honestly blown away the moment I tasted the broth in the soondae-guk. And then I tried the kimchi… I was this close to tearing up. I can’t even remember the last time I had kimchi that tasted this good. I ended up buying a 1-lb container right away.“

“Updating the review for the new ownership. Fried chicken was excellent. We tried two dishes on different occasions, maeun galbi and yukgae jang, both very good. The only thing I wish they had was a small kimchi jigae or ramyeon option to order as a side to the chicken, or a smaller army stew option.“

“So many delicious flavors! Whenever I'm feeling nostalgic for my trip to Korea, I come and pick up some of my favorites, as well as, some new discoveries.
It can sometimes feel a bit scary to go out of your comfort zone and try a new grocery with new flavors but you won't regret it!“

“If you’re looking for true, authentic Korean food in Aurora, this place is a hidden gem. The jokbal (braised pig’s feet) is rich, tender, and full of flavor…you can tell it’s made with love and tradition. The portions are generous, the prices are very affordable, and the whole vibe feels like you’ve stepped into a cozy home kitchen in Korea.

What really makes this place special is the owner. She’s one of the sweetest, kindest people you’ll ever meet. She greets everyone with warmth and makes you feel like family the moment you walk in. It’s rare to find food this authentic paired with hospitality this genuine.

Highly recommend if you want real Korean comfort food without breaking the bank. Definitely one of my go-to spots in Aurora!“

“OK LET'S NOT BEAT AROUND THE BUSH HERE. I moved to Colorado in April of last year and I've been searching for a restaurant of this caliber for some time now. The Mongolian Beef was EXCELLENT. The black bean noodles were an incredible and brand new experience for me. All three appetizers I ordered were VERY good, the won tons, dumplings, and egg rolls. I will be looking forward to trying the sweet and sour pork at the establishment itself“

“Atmosphere is pretty nice! Our server wasnt fully fluent in english so communication was a tiny bit tricky but she was very polite overall. Seafood Hotpot Combo was a little disappointing. and pretty expensive for what it included. Consisted of one crab (cut into halves), a few mussels, clams and baby octopus with udon noodles. Spicy rice cakes were pretty decent and good for their price.“

“I ordered a vegetarian dish. Excellent! They adjusted the spiciness of my dish, since I am not used to super spicy food and yet the dish was amazing. The service was very professional. Music was not loud. Parking was available. We went during lunch time, very affordable even after the tip. We will come back.“

“The spicy soondubu was very good although it appeared to have diced spam in it. Would I order it again? Yes, but the ramen soondubu had that thin, packaged ramen look & were probably laden with palm oil. One star off for that. The service was good, but I couldn't believe that the waiter had to ask if we wanted our own set of banchan. There were 6 of us dining, so I would have assumed the answer was obvious: 2 sets, please. The banchan was varied & appetizing. 5 stars for the K-pop music. Not too loud & devoid of rap. Eating out is expensive nowadays. Get used to it, or stay home & cook your own meals.“

“lower price and friendly customer service.“

“My friends and I ate here for NYE—it was perfect. Susie, our server, was thoughtful and funny even though she was working solo and got slammed just as we sat down. She was quick to refill our sides and bring us our drinks. The food was incredible, some of the most delicious Korean we’ve found in Denver, and reasonably priced considering the quality of the meat for bbq and the quantity provided. I don’t think I’d enjoy any other BBQ as much any where else.“

“The food is really good , tender and tasty. There is minimal wait time off no more than 10 minutes. As soon as you walk through the door you are greeted and feel like you're with family. They should be getting more business than what they have.“

“Visited Mr. Kim Korean BBQ on a Saturday evening. When we arrived, the dining room had a few tables occupied, but by the time we left, the place was completely full—which says a lot about its popularity.

Service was fast, attentive, and friendly. The staff consistently checked on the grill and replaced the metal plate whenever it started to burn, which kept the cooking experience smooth and enjoyable. Food variety was solid for an all-you-can-eat menu, with plenty of meats and appetizers to choose from.

The highlights for me were the LA galbi, butter shrimp, and calamari—all flavorful and cooked perfectly on the grill. Overall, everything we tried was delicious, and the price was very reasonable for an AYCE Korean BBQ.

A nice finishing touch: after we paid, they brought out a cup of iced sweet tea. It was refreshing and helped cleanse the palate after all the grilled meats.

A satisfying experience overall. Would definitely return.“

“Got take out tonight for the first time. DELICIOUS. Will be a go-to restaurant from now on.“

“Friendly staff. Great food.“

“We were the first two customers to arrive and had their undivided attention. If we lived closer we would probably come here weekly! Service was great attentive and fast without being bothersome even after more folks trickled in. We got everything we asked for (if you want salt and oil for the meat just ask). Food was generously given and swift. Everything tasted fresh. The first round is a bit of everything which we loved. The side dishes were great too - beef stew in this economy? 10/10 will be back.“

“This place is incredible! I came in about an hour before closing, ordered way too much food for a party of one, and everything still came out fast and absolutely perfect. I didn’t catch my server’s name, but she was wonderful—and yes, I tipped her well! Easily a 100/10. Highly recommend to anyone.“

“Definitely a place to go for family and friends or even a meeting, The food is wonderful the stuff is polite and friendly. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The big buns are great - we had meat (pork), kimchi, and veggie options and everything was delicious. I'd suggest paying in cash, if you're able. Also, the woman working there doesn't speak much English, so she will ask you to use the machine to order. If you have questions, it's best to ask them here. The food is good, so you can't really go wrong. Sriracha wasn't included in our take-out bag automatically but I believe they have some there.“

“True hidden gem. 💎 Best Kimchi I have ever tried. There are so manir varieties of kimchi. The owner was so courteous and attentive. They just expanded next door and it’s such a wonderful store with ready to eat items, Korean skin care products, candy and more, sitting area too. I got some acne pads which were amazing. Also got a Gimbap which was sooo delicious. If you want to try something delicious, visit this store and give it a try. I forgot to take pictures. I’ll be back to try more delicious thing.“

“best drums n flats around town“

“Best food ever my favorite“

“Sintoburi is a hidden gem in Aurora for Korean banchan (side dishes). They offer a variety of fresh kimchi, gimbap, and soups, perfect for takeout or adding to your meals. The staff is friendly, and the store has a cozy, authentic vibe. Highly recommend for anyone craving homemade-style Korean sides!“

“Seriously the best friend chicken i have ever had. Not too much sauce, perfect crust, hot and fresh. Friendly staff. Love it here! They need hand santizer on tables though, because your hands get messy“
