25 Best Korean Restaurants near Braintree

“The food court at South Shore Plaza is so chaotic, but the service at Kong Dog actually wasn’t too bad. They have a self-service kiosk for ordering and a screen that displays which order number is ready. The person who handed me my order was also friendly. The wait was around ten minutes for one corndog.

I ordered the Original Kong Dog with Chicken Sausage ($6.20). I don’t think they actually gave me a chicken sausage, but it’s fine. Overall, this tasted pretty good. The batter was very crispy and chewy but thinner than Mochinut’s, which is the only competition in the area I believe. It was sweet from the sugar coating, but the batter itself was not sweet like Korean corndogs traditionally are—it just had a fried taste.“

“For spicy lovers, Gamjatang and Shrimp Papaya Salad are recommended! Must try!!!“

“We ordered the bulgogi kimbap, bulgogi rice bowl, and dak galbi hot pot for 2 adults and 1 child. The dak galbi hot pot was plentiful and could likely feed more than 2 adults. All the dishes were delicious and well seasoned. Service was quick and friendly.“

“I go there almost every week because if the amazing food and service. I would definitely recommend the L.A 갈비 ( LA Galbee.) If you are in vacation to Boston, it’s a must go.

Kid-friendliness: Every kid would love this!!!“

“Incredible experience! Wait staff were very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Food was cooked to perfection for us over a charcoal grill. Very tasty sides dishes. Next time in Boston we will definitely be back. One of our waiters, Jinoh, was in training and gave great service! Hello from Nova Scotia Jinoh!“

“My fav Korean restaurant in MA! Since it's really hard to find a good Korean restaurant near Boston. I only go to SGD quincy. The servers are very friendly and fast. Attentive to guests. I love every food on the menu, but Korean LA galbi and seafood pancake is another level. Parking space is huge and free. 10/10 restaurant!!! Highly recommended“

“I feel like this is one of the best things that could happen to chicken I love it nice and crispy and sweet the tables and floors are clean and the services is amazing. They should open one up pin hyde park. I tell all my friends to try this chicken they love it

Kid-friendliness: The always speak to the kids and ask them about their day. And smile“

“Saw a picture of Tangsu yuk and had to try it. Tried few other dishes and they were authentic with flavors on point, but somewhat lacking ..
Pork tangsu yuk $28 came with tangsu sauce poured over already, but quickly became dry and very hard, perhaps too much starch in their batter. Tangsu sauce was good.
Jjajang myeon $14 Jjajang sauce flavor was good but again drier than typical jjajang sauce and left noodles not moist even after sauce was mixed in.
Tteok bokki $14 Thoroughly enjoyed! Full flavor and just right amount of spicy kick.
Seating was like the wood church pew chairs, hard as rock , so uncomfortable.
Vibe seemed perfect for solo diners to come and enjoy comfort foods.

Parking: Metered parking lot off central st“

“The real tteokbokki is better than yeoptteok, the kalguksu is really crazy, and the seafood and green onion pancakes are really crispy. Just ㄹㅇ Maddori, please come. The owner is kind and the staff are also kind. It's a really good restaurant. It's so delicious that I forgot to take pictures and finish it all. Please come.“

“Great place to catch up with friends and families. Great food and nice atmosphere..“

“Awesome drinks, appetizers, entrees, and service“

“Really enjoyed this restaurant!“

“Very good food and attentive service and convenient to Symphony Hall.“

“I ordered beef bibmbom and beef kimchi soup and Tangcurou and requested delivery. But I couldn’t find where is my food after website showed delivered. I was so disappointed about the delivery service. Then I called the restaurant and they help to redo a new set for me. There are really good service and perfect food. Really appreciate the restaurant.“

“The bone-in-wings are off the hook!“

“Nice restaurant, not fancy but also not rough (except for the exterior stairs, which are beat up). Great location by Kenmore Square.

Pretty good variety of options (although mostly greasy, spicy, not the healthiest food). Limited vegetarian options. Tasty food, in fairly generous portions.

Pleasant interiors, comfortable seating, clean restrooms. Upbeat background music, not too loud, so people can have conversations.

Not 5 stars because it's not accessible, the food is served in disposable dishes, they do not serve water, and the prices are on the higher side ($16 for that bowl of rice and beef).

Pretty good overall ?

Vegetarian options: Rice, soy, no salads, not many vegetarian options

Parking: Busy location, not easy to find parking on the street, but doable.

Kid-friendliness: Easy going atmosphere around lunch time. May be crowded with college students at other times.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not handicap accessible, no ramp outside, only pretty rough stairs“

“Their beef bulgogi is very tasty.“

“An amazing new spot in the local food scene! This fried chicken joint is a hidden gem worth discovering. The chicken is incredibly succulent, with a light, crispy breading that’s just right. The flavors are well-balanced, and the portion sizes are generous. The staff is well-versed in the menu and gave excellent recommendations. A must-visit for anyone who loves fried chicken!“

“Justin and his team served at my wedding last month and their cooking and service could not have been better. Our friends and family are still talking about their bibimbap- even my Korean grandmother gave her stamp of approval on the taste and authenticity! Thank you guys again- see you soon!“

“Best chicken in town“

“H Mart is located near a lot of other Asian supermarkets, such as Kam Man. However, it is the only market that offers a wide range of Korean ingredients.

The bulgogi is definitely a popular item; you can catch some really good sales on it sometimes. They also sell sashimi, which I like to buy. One of my favorite random finds is the Melona mango ice cream. So creamy and refreshing. There are a ton of snacks to choose from.

Buy in bulk if you can because they usually have giveaways at the exit if your receipt meets a certain threshold.“

“25 years I have been charged mine here. In all that time, never any less than fabulous!“

“On our Wednesday Night Culinary 🧑‍🍳 Travels we ended up in Roslindale Village at The Village Sushi & Grill🥢. We sat outside on the Patio and were Greeted by our Waitress who was Welcoming and Helpful with Menu choices. She took our Drink and Appetizer orders for the 😋Tempura Starter, 😋Chicken on Skewer, 😋Don Shumai (deep fried), 😋Scallion Pancake, Sushi Starter, 😋Miso Soup,😋 Unagi (Eel) Sushi and an Entree of Bui-Go-Ki 😋. Everything was 😋 Delicious and Tasty. 😋 The Drinks were Ice Cold 🍷🍻. The Service was Excellent 👍.
Highly Recommend Village Sushi & Grill . ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Staff was extremely nice and helpful and the food was excellent“

“BEST KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN IN BOSTON! I was a Bonchon person for years, and switched over to BBQ Chicken once I tried them. Unlike other places, they use dark meat instead of white meat, so it comes out juicyyyy and tender every time. Their honey garlic and soy garlic has a slight kick to it, but it’s delicious. Cool down with some pickled daikon radish and cole slaw for the ultimate combo. Oh, and don’t sleep on their bulgogi fries – it’s a sort of poutine, with tater tots, cheese, beef bulgogi, onions, and kimchi topped with a fried egg. INCREDIBLE!“
