10 Best Korean Restaurants near Durham

“The best Ramen in the triangle! While we like Dashi as well, nobody really touches the Tonkotsu ramen. I generally get it without the mushrooms, and the spicy version is really good. We also love the pork bao buns here, which we usually get without pickles.

Vegetarian options: They have salads and some other options

Dietary restrictions: They have vegetarian options and I also believe gluten-free noodles for the soup

Parking: Free parking on the weekend, but during the weekdays it is paid

Kid-friendliness: Not very kid friendly just given the very tight space, but if you only have one kid, it should be fine.

Wheelchair accessibility: Should be wheelchair accessible“
