Some of the best Korean food in boston, if you can possibly manage to get there on a day that they are actually open. I have been here on a Saturday before, but it seems that they are now closed on Saturdays. If their hours were more regular I would be delighted.

Amazing spot for Korean cuisine staples. Of all the things I ordered, my wife and I loved them all. The galbi is so very worth it. True bulgogi flavor in each tender bite. The spicy chicken was reminiscent of sesame chicken, but it came with a spicy sauce that took it up a notch and made it that much tastier. The korean pancakes are a definite must-have. It blew us away from the first bite all the way to the last. The dipping sauce makes all the flavors sing Hallelujah all up in your taste buds. Lastly, the kimchi udon was very satisfying to eat. I love the texture of udon, and they flavored it extremely well. Every dish was very different, yet all went well with each other. The service was quick and kind, and the restaurant was very clean. What more can you ask for? I definitely recommend this place if you get a hankering for good Korean food or if you've never had it before!

K's is the best!! for those who reviewed and said they were rude it's not doubt because the customers were rude! They have the nicest people working there, and their food is not salty!!! I've been eating there for years. Please don't listen to people who tell you that, go check it out for yourself you will not be disappointed. I've dined in plenty of times and ordered out. 5 Stars is not enough they deserve 10!!!!

Not recommended! The food was very salty, not good at all. On top of that the service was terrible, very rude. The worst Korean food we ever had as Asian people.

Very good Korean favorites. It’s more of a take out place with a few tables. The best Korean pancake I have had in a very long time

Fast casual dining with self serve water and tea and walk-up ordering. No banchan besides kimchi was served with food. Beef ribs were good. Japchae had too much black pepper. Restrooms can be accessed by walking behind the building and located behind the kitchen.
Kid-friendliness: Not the best place for a high energy toddler. Quiet restaurant with lots of decorative objects within reach. There is a container of silverware on each table. Also there is an easily accessible cold/hot water dispenser. You must walk around the building to access the restroom behind the kitchen. High chairs available.

Whenever my husband worked near Peabody, he used to have lunch at this place. He was always satisfied with his meals here, and this was my first visit. The interior was very clean, and the tables and utensils were spotless. I thought the place had only been open for a few months, but surprisingly, it has been open since 2016. The clean interior made for a pleasant dining experience. I ordered Korean-style pork rice bowl, bibimbap, and tteokbokki. Although I thought the portions would be too much and we would end up leaving some food, we ended up finishing everything because it was so delicious. I highly recommend adding cheese and fish cakes to the tteokbokki!!! It's incredibly tasty! ♡ I live in near downtown Boston, but if I get the chance, I will definitely visit this place again. I would love to eat their food every day! Highly recommended :)
Honestly best food. Love coming here for the food and dont mind spending the money. But the woman that serves there is not nice at all. Everyone can tell shes never in a good mood. Honestly have put up with it because i really enjoy the food. I seen other people feel uncomfortable because of service. But the last straw was when i went with my family(2 adults - 1 child), on a rainy day. Got there right at 2 and said we couldn’t eat there because they take lunch at 2:50. We literally had 50 min to eat. We even said we could eat fast. There was literally no one else in there. I dont get how they want to stay in business with that kind of service. Please change the hours or something because its inconvenient. I always take a 20 min drive to get there. And i did put low stars because they have no way of contacting anyone on their website because i would have rather spoken to a manager or owner first but this is the only way this message can get across i guess.
Edit: For management- as i finished the review, i saw the host lock the door right at 2:22pm. I would think that isn’t good for business.

Very very poor customer service, the girl at the front desk yelled at us because was a miscommunication about the time they take a break. We went there at 2pm, food ready at 2:20pm. She dropped the food in a bag in front of us at our table and said you guys have to leave because it’s to go. I was like what? We ordered to eat here, this doesn’t make sense. End of the history she brought the chef out to say what is the problem like ready to fight, at this point we were like what is going on, we just want to eat and go. In the meantime she was still yelling at us so I have to request the refund and had leave because her attitude was terrible. I wouldn’t recommend this establishment to anyone. Also I request to use the restroom to wash my hands and she was like to have to go around the building and go to the back door because the restroom is in the kitchen. Omg terrible.

They didn’t even try to make the spicy chicken good. Wasn’t typical Korean double fry crispy. Seems like they took processed chicken nuggets and put sauce on them. The lady wasn’t rude, but she also wasn’t very inviting.
