23 Best Korean Restaurants near Centennial

“I’m typically happy with the bowls here, but I decided to splurge tonight and get the Premium bowl. I was very disappointed with the amount of meat and rice in the bowl for the price. For almost $27, the meat was very scarce. It didn’t look like it at first, but each piece of meat has a rib bone in it and there wasn’t much meat around each bone. The other part that was disappointing was the fact that it comes on a large bed of rice. That was not in the menu description online, it only said noodles. The noodles are delicious and for $27, I would expect it to all be noodles, but I only got a small portion of noodles and mostly rice. Again, the regular priced bowls are definitely worth it for the price, but I’d save your money and skip the Premium bowl. You get very little premium ingredients to justify doubling the price of the bowl.“

“We always order the bibimbap in a hot stone bowl it’s our favorite! We absolutely recommend it. We love how the rice gets crispy on the bottom so, so good. We’ve tried several of the meat options and never had any issues. My sisters were stationed in Korea and introduced us. Love it here“

“First visit and it will definitely not be the last! Came here on a date and loved the experience! From the food, entertainment and environment it was worth the visit. Thank you to Sean and Victor!

Vegetarian options: Never cross contaminated food

Kid-friendliness: Awesome no inappropriate people and great people

“Update I have gone back and their other shaved ices are better than the Mango Cheese! I would reccomend the tiramisu shaved ice. The Mango Cheese was not a good flavor combination. The Chocolate croffle was good. And the drinks were good. My friend got a grapefruit ade and it wasn't too sweet. The Jujube tea was a little sweet.“

“Friendly staff, nice interior, and great food. We ordered 4 dishes (2 appetizers & 2 mains) and there were no misses. Will definitely be coming back. (The appetizers were also meal size)

Top recommendations: crispy shrimp kimbap, jeon seafood & spring onion, and pork galbi“

“Really good chicken and fun tic tac toe games on the table to play while you wait. Little bit sad that we’re traveling back to Ohio tomorrow, but we’ll visit again the next time we are in the Centennial area.“

“Crazy delicious and fast Korean food 😎❤️“

“This food was so good!! Fresh veggies, fresh meat, I got the chicken chi-bap and it was so good, really good sweet spicy sauce, rice, glass noodles and veggies. The lady who was working there was literally the kindest soul, gave good recommendations and gave me and my friend candy, a total sweetheart and welcoming energy. Also there is cute art everywhere and a nice quiet spot to eat and yap in the back. Would recommend! :)

Vegetarian options: Tofu and veggie variations for almost every menu item!“

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

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

“The kimbap was so delicious and well put together. Had the original and the bulgagi I definitely prefferes the bulgagi as it had some great flavor. The rice cakes and fish cakes (ddeok bokki) was my favorite thing we ordered the spicy suace/broth was so flavorful and cakes had great texture. The spicy Bulgagi bowl was also very good. The meat was very tender and with just enough rice, cabbage, and suace. I will say it was not spicy and I would definitely appreciate more kick!“

“Food was so good. The 돼지국밥 honestly felt even better than what I had in Korea—super rich broth with tons of pork. But the real surprise was the kimchi, that’s what made the meal for me. I also tried the 순대, which was alright, but the pork soup definitely stole the show.“

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

“My go-to place for Jajangmyun and Jampong in the Denver area. I must say, Yong Gung is one of the best K-food spots in Denver. Try the Samsung Gan-jajang (삼선간짜장) if you’re a JJM lover — real JJM fans always order Gan-jajang. I also enjoy their specialty menu, like Chicken Ganpoongi (깐풍기). The food comes out quickly, making it a great spot for lunch or a Korean-style drinking night. Don’t go to Korea — just go to Yong Gung and save your $5,000 K-food trip. It’s so authentic and tasty.“

“My husband and I went to Korea last year and have been searching for great naengmyeon in Aurora and this place totally delivers!!! The noodles were cold, chewy, and the broth had just the right kick. It felt like we were back in Seoul 😊 Super friendly staff, cozy vibes, and great value. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Dae Bak feels like family. Momma Song and her husband create the warmest, most welcoming pocha-style vibe in Aurora. The food is incredible and my favorite was the Army Stew, with its rich broth and comforting flavors but honestly, everything we tried was excellent (from tteokbokki to bone broth soups). No delivery, no website, just a true Korean dining experience that’s absolutely worth it.“

“The staff was very friendly, prices were competitive, and the selections were plenty comprehensive. The store gimbap (rice roll) was excellent in portion, seasoning, and ingredients to rice ratio especially for $8. The bakery was surprisingly comprehensive made by a baker who was very kind & humble with decades of experience. As a cherry on top, the owner gentleman generously gave sour candies to try.

This whole experience made me feel nostalgic for down to earth Korean supermarkets and inspired me to support them instead of bigger Asian supermarket chains like H-mart.

I was also pleasantly surprised to learn that M Mart is the only Korean independently owned international grocery market in Colorado since 1983.

While this was my first visit, it definitely won't be my last!“

“THE BEST JOKBAL in Denver
Server was super friendly and super kind. She was keep checking on us if we're doing good or if there's anything more we need.
Jokbal was sooooo soft with right moist and chewy skins were sooo tasty. Right amount of seasoning, good Banchan, fresh veggies and friendly staff made it all perfect.
Place is small but perfect for cozy small gatherings!“

“The tangsuyok was delicious, the batter, the crisp...yum! Only complaint was that the sauce was a little too thick and had this 'stretchy' texture.

I felt the jjajangmyeon was good. The sauce seemed a bit watered down like most places and could use more black bean paste. The noodles were fine, wide and flatter vs round. Overall, I would definitely come back here for the same dishes.“

“The food warmed my heart, it was the closest to my best friends moms food I've had in years. Very authentic! Yes, the staff doesn't speak the best English but they are incredibly sweet. They made me feel at home. My new go to spot for everything Korean. I had their kimchi stew which was incredible. Their bibimbop was okay but their banchan was fantastic! They brought us out more too when we complimented them. Incredible experience.“
