16 Best Korean Restaurants in Ellicott City

“I have come here to eat for years even when they where at another location since I was little. I have always come here when I want very good food, the best to be exact or when life has me down. The staff is so friendly. I even came to pick up my take out order one time and I had gotten a flat tire driving over just before turning in and they even came out to help me without even asking. They care and the food shows it.“

“Everything at this place is recommended!“

“Absolutely loved this place! The food tasted authentic and home-style, and all the side dishes were fresh and neatly served. The restaurant was very clean, and the staff were kind and welcoming. There’s a great variety on the menu, and the prices are fair for the quality. Highly recommend for anyone looking for good Korean food!“

“Love this place so much, we go about once a week. I do wish they were open a bit later because it can be a time crunch to make it there after work, but I get it. The food is flawless, I haven't ordered anything that wasn't delicious.“

“This is my 6th time visiting WooRi Jib and I’m just as satisfied as the first time I dined here. The customer service is excellent and the dishes are also so flavorful. The 반찬 (side dishes) are also so delicious and refreshing. I would recommend this restaurant for people who are curious to try Korean food for the first time and also for Korean food fans. I hope WooRi Jib remains a staple restaurant in Ellicott City for years to come. 10/10!! ⭐️“

“The salads here are very gourmet and if you come here you'll love it😋“

“Great Korean comfort food in a small dining room in Ellicott City. I ordered their Seolleongtang with brisket. Broth isn’t as rich and creamy compared to other places but it was still pretty good. Many pieces of brisket. I did add quite a bit of salt. My daughter really wanted their bimbimguksu, but they don’t have it anymore. She got their bimbimnaengmyun and liked it. The steamed egg with cheese was good and unique.

Come early to avoid the wait time!“

“Snow Ice and Gimbap. Next time I’m trying the Rice Cake Ramen.“

“Wonderful service and equally wonderful food ! So glad to have good quality Korean food in our local community!“

“This place has the best fried chicken in Baltimore area.“

“great place to hang out and have some fantastic Korean munchies. very friendly service!“

“Highly recommended Food are not expensive“

“We stopped by for Thai food but noticed an abundance of Korean restaurants in the mall. After a quick Google Maps check, we chose this one—and it did not disappoint! The authenticity was evident, with all the staff being Korean and only a few speaking English.

The food was excellent for the price. We ordered the special combination for two, which was more than enough for three—my husband, teen son, and me. The highlight was the thick pork belly: it looked greasy at first, but once grilled and cut into bite-sized pieces, it was incredible. The fat rendered out, leaving the meat perfectly crispy and chewy.

The two men also shared a seafood pancake, while I was already satisfied with the small dishes—like the steamed egg and soup—that came with the meal.“

“Our favorite restaurant in Ellicot City. Hope they stick with same chefs.“

“Looking for authentic Korean cuisine? This is the place.

Very authentic from food selection, drinks offered, to interior atmosphere, wall decorations and the service. There is nothing fancy here, only hearty Korean vibes and food here. Everything is reasonably priced given the shareable size portions of each order. If you understand Korean culture, you will know how authentic this place is and will not complain about the service. It was good service to my opinion 😉

Definitely recommend @WineDinenVacay“

“Had the Dumbling Ramen and it was very good. It was spicier than I expected but I’m not bothered by such things; gave it a nice surprising kick. Comes in a metal bowl on hot pad, so be warned it will be quite hot at first and may need to let it cool a little before eating.“
