43 Best Korean Restaurants near Mililani

“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!“

“Convenient, hassle free kine block party at your home! Delicious and affordable!“

“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.“

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

“best place to eat. must try the bimbimbap“

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

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

“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!“

“Bibimbap absolutely delicious, was only a little different to find the way to order but just ring the bell at the window to place an order. Only one Small table out front to eat there if desired but it’s more of a to go spot. Still authentic to the core. Highly recommend.“

“Absolutely delicious! The kalbi was the star of the meal — tender, juicy, smoky, and packed with flavor. 🤤 The marinade was seriously addictive, and the portion was generous too.

One of the best food truck meals I’ve had in Hawaii. Highly recommended!

한국에서도 좋아하는데 여기 진짜 맛나네요“

“I always look forward to returning to Honos. Best food in this lot, and best spicy garlic shrimp I’ve had anywhere. I’ve tried multiple trucks here in Haleiwa and they do not compare. It is frustrating to read complaints about staff when we’ve never had an issue. Seems to me more like stuffy privileged people during busy season rather than being legitimate. Love Honos!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Great food great service nice place“

“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!“

“Their food here is delicious. I've came here many times and seeing how they plate their food is amazing and neat. I recommend their bbq chicken and their sides are very tasty. I love eating their long rice, cabbage, mac salad, and creamy potatoes potatoes“

“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!“

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

“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!!“

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

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

“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!“

“the korean food is pretty authentic owned by korean family. inside is nothing fancy but the food definitely hit the spot.
we had the short rib galbi and bolgogi mix , which is well marinated with a lot of flavor. the bimbiba is very simple and good portion for one person.
Service is fast. didnt take long for the food to come out, the owner is super nice lady.“

“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!“

“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.“

“I used to come here in the 90’s when I was working with a mechanical contractor and it was one of my favorite place on the island with $2.50 BBQ chicken plate! I heard there was ownership change 2017 or so but I still came back for old times sake. Actually the food was really great quality and delicious. We had the Kalbi which was really savory and had the right amount of fat. The BBQ chicken also delicious but no longer bone in so I missed that a little. The beef soup
Is still excellent! My daughter says they use marrow, I don’t know but I haven’t found that anywhere else. I was happy to see that the awesome historical photos were still there though hidden in a hallway. I was there for the remodel when the benches and photos were put in, maybe 1996? Only major difference was the price, I definitely wouldn’t be able to afford as a daily lunch. But still delicious and really enjoyed. I’ll come again“

“For a quick bite of Korean BBQ, Family BBQ is the perfect pre or post airport stop. The Kalbi and Meat Jun were both flavorful and perfectly cooked. There's an ample selection of sides to choose from and all of it was fresh and delicious. Kim, the owner was friendly and delivered superb customer service.“

“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.“

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

“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🤙😍“

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

“I’ve been coming to this place for a long time now, and I feel like their quality has even improved since the last time I came here. The food was made to perfection, everything was seasoned very well, and the presentation was flawless. I wish I had taken a photo before I started eating, but it was that good! I ordered the tofu soup with beef and the spicy chicken plate (not pictured).“

“I ordered the korean fried chicken knowing it has a 25 minute wait, so worth it. I ordered the spicy one with a side of 3 scoops of rice, I ordered the half chicken the picture is the half I didnt eat yet. For the the price you can't beat it.“

“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!“

“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 :)“

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

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

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

“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!“
