47 Best Korean Restaurants near Silver Spring

“Muy excelente lugar nos encanta venir y compartir con la familia su atención es más que excelente servicio completamente recomendado“

“I brought my elder parents and family here for dinner with about seven people. Everyone enjoyed their dishes and the service as well. I appreciate that they use stone balls for bimbimbop! The food was both spicy and flavorful, And we will head back next time we're in town.“

“I really love this place. Since recently moving from Korea to the U.S., I find myself coming here whenever I crave Korean fried chicken. This is the only place that truly captures the taste of the chicken I used to enjoy back home. I once tried the BBQ branch in Greenbelt, but I was really disappointed—it didn’t taste anything like what I remember.

Whenever I feel homesick, I come here for chicken. The breading is perfectly crispy without being too thick, and the meat is juicy and fried to perfection. It's the kind of flavor that lights up a bulb in my head and brings me right back to Korea.“

“Ugh. I really wanted to like it, service is great! Good people very helpful. Just the food I dont know in my head and what others have hyped, i was hoping for more banging flavor.

Clean place

I order the hot cheetos kong dog whole beef 7/10 the breading and beef taste good the hot cheeto did not taste like it. Plus left a werird pink gum taste after

6 pc wings buffalo. 7/10 had better but cooked perfectly nice crunch

Fries normal style crinkle cut

Price is on the high end. TO ME it did not correlate to the meal but i understand its all freshly made from what i can tell“

“Great Korean fried chicken and cheesesteaks“

“The corn dogs are amazing, I’ve only tried the takis and Cheeto ones but they’re just delicious. My only complaint is the picture of the chicken sandwich on the left of the board.. I think more people would buy it if the image didn’t look like poop in a bun 😭 maybe that’s just how the sandwich looks but atleast make the picture higher quality“

“Everything was perfect! I would recommend this place“

“I am sure Korean food is the best when tasted in Korea. That's why I'm not a big fan of Korean restaurants abroad. However this one, Rice Bar in DC satisfied me for real. 다만 제 느낌에 1회용 숫가락이 좀더 크면 좋겠고 젓가락에 일본어 적힌 점이 아쉽.. 그래도 또 들리고 싶네요.“

“I have ate multiple times at this restaurant and the service and food was fantastic! The food was hot and seasoned to perfectio“

“Dining at Shia was a truly surreal experience!

As fans of Chef Edward Lee from Culinary Class Wars, my husband and I were beyond excited to try his restaurant, and it exceeded every expectation. Every course was beautifully prepared and packed with flavor, the drinks were outstanding, and the service was attentive and welcoming. You can feel the thought and care behind every detail. It was a memorable date night, and we’re already looking forward to coming back!

Highly recommended!“

“This was my first experience with Korean food and it did not disappoint. Everything was freshly made by the mother and son who own and operate the restaurant. The beef dumplings were melt in your mouth delicious and fresh. The chicken with sweet onions I could eat every day. The portions are large... definitely enough for a meal or two the next day. The overall experience was fantastic.“

“The food is good, but I’m gonna have to remove stars because of the customer service. 😕 When I first entered, I wasn’t greeted. The associate just stared at me, as if to say “I don’t have all day. Are you gonna order anything?” She had the most stony expression… It was only my second time here, so I was quite sure I had not had any negative encounters with anyone. I was trying to get suggestions and ask questions about certain things, but every time I asked a question about something, the server just dumped it in the bowl. He never answered the question. When I got to the cashier, I apologized, because I wondered if I had done something wrong. But he just referred to me as “diva,” and tried to assure me that nothing was wrong. I told him I didn’t appreciate being called a diva. I just don’t like being treated like I’m a problem when I haven’t done anything. I gave two stars for service, because my first experience was so amazing! I don’t know what happened.“

“The line at chipotle nearby was so long at lunch I decided to give this a try and I’m glad I did. I asked the staff for their help in building a bowl since it was my first time and ended up with a delicious chicken bowl with half rice/half veggie base. Yum! Lots of great flavor and love the sauces on top too!“

“I just had the best chicken wings in Washington DC. While driving through the city, I noticed this small Korean restaurant on 400 Florida Ave NW. People were coming in and out. I continued driving because I had to meet with one of my friends a bit further from this restaurant. Then I goggled the restaurant’s name and found great reviews. Gave it a try…and have no regrets. I placed my order through their website. It was easy and simple. My order included a combo of spicy honey garlic wings, and drumsticks. Also, I ordered onion rings. They were cooked to perfection - all tasty, crispy and flavorful. I’m glad I found a new spot for my chicken wings in DC. One hundred percent recommended. Don’t forget to tip the hard working people at this restaurant!“

“Incredible service!! My pickup order encountered a minor delay, and the staff informed me they were comping my order before I had even noticed the wait. I told them they didn’t need to do that, as I wasn’t in any rush, and the staff replied “We hold ourselves to a high standard here” - This high standard of care is also evidenced by the excellent quality of their food.“

“The food here was absolutely delicious! I literally want to drive the 5 hours back to DC just to get more. The lady that took my order was super cute and sweet and answered all of our questions. I didn't even get a picture of my food because it looked and smelled so good and I just dug right in! They do have a couple of stools at a little bar area, but it is mostly a takeout place.“

“Noodle with Fresh Pork Black Bean Sauce – Stir-fried Jajangmyeon with pork. Their handmade noodles are legit - a huge upgrade from typical machine-made ones. The sauce is on point, and the portion size is about average.

The other dishes here are decent. The fried wings are pretty good, but the real gem is the noodles. Stick with the Jajangmyeon and you won’t be disappointed!“

“Excellent food, superb service and great portions! Totally worth the money.“

“So delicious my first time there“

“We were in town too see the Cherry Blossoms. While looking for something quick to eat, we stumbled upon SeoulSpice. I have been craving my mother's cooking... You guys are the closest to her cooking that I teared up while eating.... All the way to the last bite. 😋 And then we went again the next night!“

“Nice atmosphere, food was delicious. I love Korean food and this is the place I usually come with my family. I recommended them highly.“

“I Highly recommend this restaurant. I had Mother’s Day dinner here and it was AMAZING! The food was great and the customer service was Top tier. The manager Edin was attentive and friendly. My entire family enjoyed ourselves. I will definitely dine with those guys again in the future. Small parties and Large parties are Welcomed. 2 👍🏾 Up.“

“Spot - cozy. Wait staff - awesome and attentive. Manager - one of the best people I've met in my career. Kitchen - absolutely on point. This is hands down one of the last few old gems of downtown Bethesda and there aren't many left!“

“I love the food! It’s so good. I brought my daughter for the first time and she wants to come back this weekend!“

“Friendly decoration and fresh homemade food. Free public parking cross the street from the restaurant. Smiley owner!!“

“This is one of my favorite spot! The bowl taste absolutely delicious, purple rice and glass noodles with grill chicken or Steak bowl taste so good! Plus triple A sauces! Super Delicious!! Service was excellent too! Definitely come back again soon! Thank you very much!“

“Great community kitchen to work out of 👍“

“!!! fresh and delicious FOOD !!!“

“A lovely little cafe on the first floor of Barlow Building. The ladies are very nice and the food is quick and fresh.

The price is a little high due to rent and food costs I assume. but it’s convenient between appointments.“

“Great cheap eats! Got the ham and cheese egg toast and it was amazing. The sauce they put on it was so good. Also got the cheddar dog with potatoes and it was just alright. Everything was very affordable and the location is great. Plenty of seating in the food court area“

“The first thing I will say about this restaurant is that I had previously gone to the bakery next door and didn't even know there was something here. The other businesses in this mall have their signs in large font on the top of the building but this place only has a small sign above the door. I only found out about this place via a friend's recommendation.

As for the food, my favorite was the Ja Jang Myun. I have only had it a few times before but this place definitely was the best. I also liked the seafood pancake a lot. I would definitely order these again and recommend.

The Japchae noodles and Bibimbap were good but I think I have had better ones at other places. But these dishes at other places seemed to be noticeably sweeter so maybe here is healthier, who knows. I think the the prices were still reasonable with the portion for the japchae being especially large. Finally, I wasn't a big fan of the banchan appetizers. The kimchi was below average in my opinion and also not much variety. I did like the 2 radish appetizers though.

Although this place had some standout dishes, I think it was not my favorite Korean restaurant in terms of taste. But the prices for the portion seemed better than others in the area so I think we got good value for the price.“

“Great place great atmosphere and excellent food“

“we love their jjajjangmyun and jjambbong! very delicious!“

“The food was awesome as this was my first time trying it. I HIGHLY recommend dinning here as it will not disappoint. Not to mention the employees were extremely polite and happy to help make recommendations for toppings and such. Will definitely be back!“

“Best chicken Katsu I have had since I left Hawaii. The owner was amazing last time We went which is why we went back. Well that, and the food is amazing. Also, I never ever right reviews that's how good it was.“

“In DC for 6 days, if it weren’t for family gatherings that included tons of food, I Would Have EATEN HERE EVERYDAY! Seriously love, the Love! Bring some of this great food to Boston!😘“

“Delicious food, cozy place!!“

“Another week back in the “rock” decided to get some jjajang myun on the fourth. Unfortunately, although it normally is open until later. Wang closed just as I pulled up with another couple at around 4 pm. Saw that this was the closest Korean place open and took a chance. Very homey feel, awesome waitstaff, hard working diligent. Kept my expectations low, however, not to be disappointed. I ordered only two dishes instead of my usually go to three or if really hungry, four dishes. Food came out quick, customers sitting at the adjacent table made great recommendations. Wolfing down my food as usual, Yooooo, the 떡볶이 was fire!!!! Very 쫄깃쫄깃해. And, the Chick Neng’s was really good , too. Positive note, I 우연히 bumped into the awesome associate pastor of Maryland central and his fam. What a blessing! 그럼 안녕히 계세요 마라나타! 🙏“

“Wonderful mixture of flavors and textures. Refreshing and filling at the same time. Definitely a must if you like asian mex fusions. 🤤“

“I eat at Iron Age every time I pass through DC. It is an awesome experience with great food. The price is also very good at $30 for 90 minutes. I just can't order the shrimp because it is whole shrimp with eyes and all.“

“Quaint little family owned coffee shop with an attentive staff. Great coffee!“

“Must GO! MUST EAT! Sooo GOOD! Will NOT disappoint! YOU WILL GO BACK, AGAIN and again and again!“

“The service was great and the food was even better!! Great place to go with family or friends! Love the atmosphere and would definitely recommend for all! The service you get there is exceptional!!“

“love it here! great asian options in a comfy location!“
