NolaKorea Korean Restaurant

Great little mom and pop authentic Korean restaurant! Ordered the galbi for me and the beef bulgogi for my companion. Both were excellent! They only have 10 tables and they were full when we arrived. Fortunately someone was leaving so we didn't wait long. Looking forward to going back for the bibimbap.

Bad attitude and service. Food is questionable. Not worth the drive and time.

I've had the pleasure of eating here on numerous occasions. Each time has been amazing! Today, I introduced family members and they too enjoyed it.

If you looking for authentic Korean , this is the place. This is not one of those Asian buffet or hotpot restaurants. However be aware that it is small and I would not suggest groups over four. First attempt with a group of six we could not be seated with 45 minutes before closure. Second visit with only three of us we were seated in fifteen minutes. However for those after us the closed sign went up with another 1 hour 15 minutes to go. So take that into consideration on Friday or Saturday evenings. The bulgogi beef was very tasty!

Works hours are sketchy. It’s my second time that I visit the restaurant, within work hours and the owner claims that me and my party cannot be served.
I will not return. The owner needs to stick to his hours of operation.

Great place to satisfy your cravings. Beef bulgogi is not worth it, get beef galbi instead. Mom and pop shop, be patient with the service.

Unacceptable experience at Nola Korean.

We drove an hour to eat here, then waited another hour just to be seated. As soon as we sat down and started ordering, the owner loudly said, “That’s too much for two people.” It was rude, disrespectful, and completely out of line. We are paying customers—there is no excuse for commenting on how much we order. This was not a joke. His tone was harsh and embarrassing.

It honestly feels like this place has enough customers, so the owner thinks he can treat people however he wants and doesn’t need any more business.

Save your time and money, go somewhere that actually respects its customers.

Fantastic Korean spot. Very friendly and quick service. Had Japchae and Gimbap, very good
Definitely will go back.

I went to NolaKorea twice during my 4 day Mardi Gras trip in New Orleans, and it was amazing both times. The food tasted just like authentic Korean food back home, maybe even better! The staff and the welcoming atmosphere made the experience even more special. Thanks James and Sammie!

The food is pretty good. However, make sure that you show up super early because they do not actually respect their own business hours. Family and I showed up at 1:20. They turned us away because they “close soon” at 2??? Maybe instead of arbitrarily turning customers away just make a new closing time?????

You will not be able to eat here if you have a party of 6 or more. The only man serving tables did not want to serve us even if we split up into 2 parties. This place is very small with only a few tables that can seat up to 4. It feels like they don't want a lot of business because they just don't want the work

I just teared up thinking about how good the food was and this is a month after eating there.
