7 Best Korean Restaurants near Odenton

“Was hesitant to order because of some recent reviews but decided to order anyway. Glad I did it was so good was greeted very friendly and food was delicious ( chicken bulgogi) Kinda pricey but so is everything right now. My portion was large enough for leftovers so it’s worth it! Hidden gem!“

“Their sign caught our eye; the restaurant we were looking for had closed. What a great find! The food was absolutely fantastic - the portions are large and the staff was kind to my three kids.“

“Great place! Welcoming and friendly. The seafood pancakes are delicious.“

“So this is my new favorite place in Columbia. Oh my goodness. What a gem. It’s literally so delicious. I’m so thankful I stopped in. Every bite was better than the last. I think I could eat this every day. Spicy, sweet, savory, tasty.

I had the beef cup bap, miso soup, and a small side of cucumber kimchi!“

“This was my first time visiting Tpot and it was mainly due to celebrating a birthday. There are many options to select and a buffet if that is your preference. Ice cream to go among other things like popcorn. It's probably not. A place that I will frequent due to having to cook your own food if not eating from the buffet. Its all about preference but just not for me.“

“Last Sunday I ventured to Ja Kum Sung, a Korean restaurant in Glen Burnie. The name “Ja Kum Sung” means “The Forbidden City” in Chinese characters, but it’s written in Hangul as Ja Kum Sung. This place is renowned for offering a taste of everything Korean cuisine has to offer, including Korean-style Chinese food. Yes, you heard that right—Korean-style Jajang myeon!

Jajang myeon, also known as black noodles, originally hails from the Shandong region of China as 炸醬麵. It made its way to Korea in the 1890s and has since evolved into the Korean-style Jajang myeon we know and love today. This restaurant’s Jajang myeon is nothing short of a masterpiece. I highly recommend the “Gan Jajang,” where the sauce, made by stir-frying chunjang without starch with vegetables and meat, is served separately.

The noodles are thick and chewy, and the fresh ingredients make each bite a delightful experience.

But wait, there’s more! Alongside the Jajang myeon, I also ordered Galbi tang. This soup is a heavenly concoction of tender, slow-cooked beef ribs in a rich, flavorful broth. My wife opted for Dogani tang, a dish similar to Seolleong tang but made with bovine cartilage instead of sliced beef. The milky bone broth topped with thinly sliced green onions is a sight to behold and a treat for the taste buds.

For our main course, we chose Yusanseul, a Korean-Chinese dish that originated in Korea. It’s a delightful stir-fry of shiitake mushrooms, sea cucumber, bamboo shoots, enoki mushrooms, shrimp, pork, chives, ginger, and garlic, thickened with starch. Just like Japchae, Yusanseul is a favorite among Koreans.

This restaurant is not just a place to fill your stomach; it’s a place to experience the essence of Korean cuisine. If you ever find yourself in Glen Burnie, make sure to visit this spot. You’ll enjoy delicious food and have a great time.“

“Food & service were both excellent! They haven’t fully opened indoor dining due to lack of employees. There was one lady inside taking orders & serving customers & she did a great job! Will definitely be back!“
