14 Best Korean Restaurants near Matthews

“Great food! Nice portions and friendly staff.
The little market attached to the restaurant has many items that I would love to try. However, much of the packaging is written in Korean, Japanese, etc.
Definitely a hidden gem.“

“Just finished our first meal. It was delicious and we will definitely come back. Thank you Phoebe V. for great service and a great meal.“

“Thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Anju. We started with the seafood pancake which was actually more of a waffle. I prefer the traditional pancake but the waffle was good too. Next we split two entrees. We went with the bulgogi of course because it’s a classic. Also tried the spicy stir fried squid off the pop up menu. Loved this surf and turf combination. The cheesecake was the perfect ending. Great service too!“

“Food was absolutely delicious and the service was top notch. Hands down would recommend 10/10.😋“

“Delicious and quick! Ordered bulgogi and it was ready in just a few minutes. The food was delicious! I don't usually love kimchi, but I did like their recipe, and the pickles were great too. Although I took it to go, the inside of the restaurant looked good. Although small, the wall art was nice and explained the main dishes served.“

“This place is hands down the best Korean BBQ place in Charlotte. If you want a server who is knowledgeable and cares about his patrons, Amadeo, is your guy. He helped picked out our menu and had wonderful recommendations. He made small talk at our table and we will be back because of his wonderful professionalism and manners. We look forward to coming back.“

“As a Korean from the West coast, I can say with utmost certainty that this is the best Korean food you can get in Charlotte. Kimchi is always fresh and has amazing flavor, perfectly balanced and has a nice kick all kimchi should have. I grew up going to hole in the wall Korean restaurants with my 할머니 and the Dduk Mandu Guk is the closest I get to being back there. Nice proportions fitting of a Korean restaurant, and trust me you will be wanting to have more despite being so full you’re ready to explode. WOULD RECOMMEND!!!“

“Everything was amazing, from the food to the service. The waiters were always checking up on us and they switched the pot every time we asked. The meats are fresh (we ordered the beef bulgogi and brisket) and the sides are so flavorful. I really enjoyed the experience“

“The best KBBQ spot in town. I went a few month ago but they were closed temporarily because of a kitchen fire. Can’t wait for them to reopen!“

“Best food. Best vibes. Best service ever. Armani did a great job! 10/10 highly recommend“

“Disregard Chloe review, I went there the same day she went also I can barely understand what she saying in her review, ANYWAYS, this place switched owners, at first I did not like it because the price got bumped up way too high and the food quality wasnt as great, but I went yesterday(6/15/2025) and the service and food was great, no complaints. I would wish they make the korean pancake like one big one instead of 4 little pieces but hey, it was still great, overall I think its a great place to eat if you craving some Korean food.“

“Andy isn’t Korean What if lil uzi lost his hoodie Best Ching wings I always give good tip to Andy;)“
