Korean Restaurants near Ewa Beach

“Great hole in the wall mom and pop shop. My family was kraving traditional korean food and not the usual hawaiian plates and this place served it up properly. The bonchon was kimchi, bean sprouts, radish, and krab salad and was very good.

We ordered several dishes all which hit the spot.

Fish jeon: marinated fish and dipped in egg before being fried. Soft and slight crunchy edges served with a dipping sauce. First time having this and was not disappointed. 10/10

Kalbi: traditional marinated beef short ribs served over onions. Tender and tasty 10/10

Hot stone bibimbap: beef, veggies and rice served in a hot stone with gochujang sauce and the rice gets crispy. Very delicious 10/10.

Seafood tofu soup. Full of shrimp and octopus and a egg dropped in the middle while still boiling, quite flavorful. 10/10

Being a Korean from Los Angeles this place held its own and I will 100% be back next time I am in oahu. As long as you are ok with a no frills super casual restaurant this place will hit.“

“These are literally the best corn dogs I’ve ever tasted in my life“

“My “go-to” Korean food!!! This place is close to my home and very convenient. The food is always fresh and made to order.

A must place visit if you are craving for K-dishes! Try it when you are in the Ewa Beach 🏝️ area!“

“burger was amazing. grilled mushrooms and onions were perfect. burger was bursting with flavor. and the tots were a perfect crispiness“

“Best fried chicken ever! So hot fresh and crunchy!“

“best place to eat. must try the bimbimbap“

“Easy to shop!!! Good prices too !!!!! Loved it !!!!!“

“Came here based on the great reviews, and it totally lived up to the hype! The food tastes absolutely amazing, every dish was full of authentic Korean flavor. Service was warm and the atmosphere is cozy. Highly recommend this spot to anyone craving delicious Korean food!“

“When I was growing up, going to school across the street at Aliamanu, they only had Pioneer Chicken at that corner of the Shopping Center. Several years later, after Pioneer Chicken was no more, I was pleased to discover this new Korean BBQ place that opened up there.“

“This food is EXCELLENT. Got #20: chicken and beef, with sides of seaweed, noodles, cabbage, bok choi, rice, gyoza. It was DELICIOUS. If my stay here was longer, I would be back for sure. The owner was so nice. He gave my sisters and I complementary mango drinks which were so fresh, real and delicious. Support this awesome business!“

“Great food great service nice place“

“I've heard good things about this place for a while but the price has kept me away until one day I was like screw it let's try. It's takeout only by the looks of it but food came out relatively quick despite my place in line and lemme tell you portions on my combo plate was heaping. From the meat jun being perfectly seasoned and caked, the Teri beef being tender seasoned yet big, the sauce being a nice kick rather than shoyu like other places this place was a welcome hit. I'd happily try the rest of my haunts on their menu and while the price is steep the portions and flavor makes the dent in my lunch budget satisfying. Definitely a return spot for me and I assume you too!“

“Chicken is very crispy ,light, not too oily and sauce is not strong special taste. So I think this store chicken is veey healthy soul food!“

“We had a great experience at the yellow food truck! The service was super fast, the food was delicious, and the portions were huge. Everything came out fresh and there was definitely plenty of food for the price. Quick, friendly service and generous portions, definitely worth checking out!“

“The items are complete. Especially the ingredients are very fresh.“

“I had kimchi stew and pork belly and it was really delicious! The ribs were especially soy sauce-based, perfect for Korean tastes😆 And the portions were really, really big! For those of you who are in the news, please order one to share.. The unfortunate thing is that eating outdoors can make you food for mosquitoes..ㅠㅠ Everything else was good!!“

“Good food and great price. Food is always consistent. Staff/owner are always delightful and helpful.“

“You guys gotta check this place out....service was top notch. When I first went in I ordered plate lunches and then the owner hands me a water cup with ice...so thoughtful!! Not many places do that anymore. The place gave a generous portion of food. Good for the money!! Great place to go to.“

“I Love Korean BBQ Kamakana Ali’i is one of few places I’d drive all the way from town just to eat. When you get to the mall if you are craving great authentic Korean food then this place is great for you.

The store when walking in I was greeted by the workers in the front. The first time I went the workers were kind and very patient with me for it was my first time trying this place. They recommended the Kalbi and Meat Jun Combo as they said it was one of their most popular combos. The meat was very tender and flavorsome. The sides that I was able to choose from were a lot and plated very neatly on the plate. At the end of the day, if you want some great BBQ with some delicious Korean sides then this is the place to go.“

“I eat here often for the varieties and none has failed me like some others nearby. Nor do they make you wait a lifetime for your food and always give friendly service. Highly recommend this place to non locals too. Very clean place well maintained and organized!“

“Amazing birthday dinner at Stadium Camellia! The kalbi was beautifully marinated, the pork jowl was flavorful and rendered perfectly, and the banchan was plentiful. Everything was well worth the price.

Chris and Kya were quick, attentive, and very accommodating with our two-year-old. We also loved that they serve Samurai Ice Cream and rotate the flavors monthly.

My only complaint is that the table and toddler seat slid around a little too easily. Other than that, we had an amazing experience. The real downside is that we didn’t come here sooner!“

“If I could, I would rate it a 4.5. The food for certain plates are consistently good. i.e. the bbq beef and fish jun. I've tried the meat jun and it was ok.

The japchae is delicious, one of my favorite. And the fried zucchini is also one of my favs :)“

“Amazing food and service. Been around a long time and still great“

“This was hands down my favorite place to eat during our 9 day vacation on Oahu! I believe it’s a husband and wife run spot, with the wife working up front and the husband cooking in the back.

We ordered the meat jun, short ribs, and shrimp tempura. Let me tell you…the meat jun was AMAZING! My kids absolutely devoured it. But for me, the star of the meal was definitely the short ribs. They were packed with flavor, the pieces were huge, and honestly, they were some of the best short ribs I’ve ever had!

The only downside was that the food took a little longer to come out. But considering this seems to be a mom and pop shop, it really wasn’t a big deal at all. When the food is this good, it’s worth the wait!

Definitely one of those places I’ll remember from our Oahu trip!“

“delicious food. HUGE portions.... you've been warned.“

“The owner makes sure she gets your order right and is very friendly. The portion sizes here are great. My husband and I were able to eat off one combo plate while also sharing an appetizer. I highly recommend the korean fried chicken plate. Absolutely would visit this location again.“

“I lived in Korea for six years. It’s hard to find that perfect beef and leaf joint you remember from your Sam gyup sal days in Korea, but this place can do it.#1. The staff is great. I enjoy seeing them every time I go.#2. They have the soju, the Korean beer, the makgeolli.#3 The BBQ is on point, the sides are delicious and the kimchi is always great.If someone doesn’t like this place, then they don’t like real Korean food. Plain and simple.“

“YUMMY 😋 YUM! fast service and food is always 👌 😋 🔥 💯“

“For the amount of food, cost is worth it. Got mini plates with two sides. Both the bbq chicken and chicken katsu plate taste like going to any yummys in hawaii.

Service was pretty bad. One of the empty plates fell onto the ground. The guy picked it up and was about to put the sides in it. Luckily his coworker scolded him and he grabbed another, clean plate on the counter. A different time, the server seemed lost while putting sides in the plate and grabbing another plate. It was a weird situation.“

“This is the 1st time here and tried the bulgogi salad. The portion and price was good but most importantly the taste was excellent. It left me feeling satisfied without feeling bloated. The sauce was good and liked the apple slices to give it some sweetness.
Definitely will come back again🤙😍“

“I have been going to this place since I was in middle school (mid 2000s) and for good reason, nobody does it better! Staff has recently changed a bit, but because it's still the same friendly service. My go-to is the spicy BBQ pork, but it's all good here and the sides are great too. Plenty of space to park your car or your butt, and located beautiful Mililani.“

“I will always visit Sadies's when visiting the island 🥰🥰“

“the food!!!! the experience!! loved it x“

“The freshest Poke on the Eastside, hands down! Mahalo“

“seen this place on tinytvs Instagram. so me and my other half went to try it out. omg best fried chicken wings ive had on island , hands down!“

“Had a nice atmosphere and ran into a friend who happened to be the pool table holder upon my friend and I arriving. And we were fortunate to be able to play numerous racks even though there were over 2 dozen people enjoying the reggae music and socializing with eachother. And since playing pool was the mission. We nailed the mission in short order!“

“What a great spot! The food was phenomenal, service was fast. The 4 of us ranging in age from 7 through 46. We ordered a full range of the choices. Highly recommend the spicy pork (even for the kids) and ju mul luk (salted steak nuggets).

With all the grills going it’s quite warm in the restaurant so dress appropriately, no need for a light sweater at this one :)“

“Always love ordering take out here at Ono Korean bbq. I'm craving kalbi today. Always quick and friendly service.

Vegetarian options: You can order just the side dishes as a plate mix. They will let you chose 4-5 side dishes items. I love their broccoli and bean sprout side dishes. They also have plain tofu as side dish.

Parking: There's always plenty of parking. We never had a time where we would go looking for parking.“

“The food was prepared very well and delivered in a timely manner. Very tasty and fresh. Will definitely go there again.“
