31 Best Korean Restaurants near Montclair

“Best seasoned garlic wings in Montclair. Absolutely delicious. We had the seasoned secret sauce wings as well..and it was flavorful, fresh, and a nice crunch when you bite in. Best french fries! Their Aurora blue lemon was different and refreshing! Great service and friendly staff.

Parking: Sundays are better for parking. The entire strip is busy on Friday and Saturdays so it's best to park and walk to the location

Kid-friendliness: Great place to take kids.“

“Was going thru Grubhub for wings and came across this place. I said how bad can it be. Wow I was surprised and disappointed. Disappointed that they didn’t have popcorn chicken but substituted for wings. They were amazing .not greasy at all. Very impressed. Will definitely go again. Tried the potato dog as well … very interesting, very good…“

“It was my first visit SK. Both sushi and sashimi were so fresh and so tasty. Definitely good value! All staffs are very friendly and service was great.
We really enjoyed our food. Yes, we will visit again soon! Thank you, Sushi Koshi!“

“Very nice and pleasant atmosphere“

“I've tried it two days in a row. One day it was spicy seasoned chicken, and the other day it was garlic sauce chicken. I was very satisfied with both, and the price was reasonable. I'm planning to try other flavors next week.

“Amazing food here! ? while going to the American Dream mall and wanted to eat Korean food. We found this gem! The MUST TRY dish is the SEAFOOD PANCAKE! It's so delicious, crispy, and tasty! This is the best haemul pajeon (seafood pancake) I have never had in NJ. I could never make so crispy pancake at home! Their spicy squid on rice in a hot stone pot was so yummy! I hope this restaurant is closer to where I live!

Parking: It's located on a bust street. I think there is no parking on site. We parked on a paid meter.“

“Very low sodium for korean food lol but it seems adjusted for the Wayne demographic. As a Korean, I would find this place to be too bland, but this was perfect for traveling. Especially for a long drive. The auntie is so kind, we will come back when visiting the area again!

Kid-friendliness: I noticed a children's step stool in the bathroom; adorably helpful for small kids to use the sink.

No alcohol sold here, super kid-friendly.“

“I loved the food and service here. Very delicious.“

“Love this place and food is amazing but they close so early and ON WEEKENDS. If they could stay open for longer, I’d give them 5 stars. I know it’s odd to give 4 stars for that but craving this place and seeing that they’re closed whenever I get out of work is always a bummer. That being said, their Sweet Fire Pork Bop is to die for!“

“Ondubu was an office lunch favorite. The food was always hot, crispy, and delicious. Staff was always very accommodating and always labeled food with names -- if you've ever ordered food for a big group of people you know that is an absolute life saver! Can't wait until I'm back in Rutherford so I can eat here again.“

“The Best place!! The best meatS and seafood“

“Bloom is an exceptional fusion restaurant that we wish we had known about sooner! So far we’ve only been twice but each time the service has been kind and professional, the food amazing and memorable. It’s our new go to spot for celebrations now.

We tried their winter and spring menus and each time found obsession worthy flavour. On Valentine’s Day we ordered the shishito peppers twice because we couldn’t stop snacking on them. Every element of their Short Rib plate is so good, but I’d happily eat just a bowl of the carrot purée alone. More recently we tried the citrus honey chicken wings which are a new favourite! The flavour is so bold and delicious. As for dessert, the quality of their cheesecake is top tier.

Bloom masterfully delivers their Korean/french fusion menu and all I can do is sing it praises. I highly recommend you try it out.“

“food, place and friendly staff“

“Came here for some Korean fried chicken after watching K drama ? and this place was amazing! Car ride was about 20 min but the chicken was still juicy and so crispy when I got home. It satisfied my cravings and the owners were super nice and gave us extra sides because we ordered a lot ! The radish / cole slaw was on point too! Will definitely go back !“

“These corn on the cobs were so delicious!
They were fresh, and had a wonderful taste.

Customer service was great too, the guy was super patient with us and explained the menu.

Def try one of their slushies! We had the horchata, which is a Mexican creamy drink.

Overall great space and would definitely try again.“

“Food is amazing and generally consistent. I’ve gotten from multiple locations and all their chicken has been juicy, tasty, and exactly as (I) expected.

Staff is friendly and patient.

Atmosphere for most locations, or at least the ones I’ve been to, aren’t anything special. You order and leave because there isn’t any seating.

10/10 Definitely recommend.

- Personal Favs

1) So Ddeok So Ddeok
• crunchy, chewy rice cakes and juicy sausage on a skewer, smothered with a spicy sweet gochujang sauce.

2) Garlic Soy Chicken (I like wings most)
• tender chicken with a crispy skin, tossed in a savory deep soy garlic glaze.“

“My only complaint is that this place is a little expensive for what it is. This is a great family restaurant place. The KBBQ is a bit expensive and I didn't get it. Instead i got Bulgulgi (Kitchen) and some Bimbimbap.

Both were great. Would come back again.“

“Gives kenko a run for its money. Definitely recommend this place for take out sushi.“

“This place is WONDERFUL. I came here with my son after spending the afternoon at Urban Air Adventure Park. We got two half box orders of boneless thighs (original crispy and soy garlic/sweet & spicy), fries, and water. The chicken took about 15-20 minutes to cook, but it was well worth the wait. My son (the pickiest eater in the world) LOVED the boneless thighs, and even the French fries. I thought everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The flavors were all fantastic, with the soy garlic being my favorite. The fries were also some of the best fries I've ever had. Super crispy on the outside but fluffy on the inside. The food also came with Cole slaw which was DELICIOUS, and I say this as someone who normally strays away from Cole slaw.Customer service was excellent. The woman at the front was very friendly and clear with describing the food. Their presentation was top notch also. The food was packaged beautifully and even the bag it came in was just really well designed. It was like opening a holiday gift of delicious food. I would highly recommend paying this place a visit, although you'll probably have to do take out since they have limited seating. That's probably the only downside I can think of, but they still deserve 5 stars overall“

“Great place to eat …right next to the New Jersey transit“

“The owner is very kind and the workers are super nice! The food was very cheap and very tasty. We got one bowl of Ramen and three of us shared it and it was big enough for all of us. PLUS THE RESTAURANT SEEMS SO COZY AND SWEET, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! “

“Sea Shai in Nutley is a fantastic spot that expertly combines sushi and Korean cuisine. The sushi is fresh and flavorful, while the Korean dishes are rich and satisfying. The cozy ambiance and attentive service make for a delightful dining experience. Whether you’re in the mood for sushi or Korean comfort food, Seashai Sushi delivers on all fronts. Highly recommended! Especially try their LA Kalbi!“

“Tried their food for the first time, they just recently opened. I was impressed! It was fresh and tasty. Korean fried chicken is fried twice so the crispy-ness on this definitely did not disappoint! If you like extra crispy chicken it is a must to come here. The pieces of chicken were generous, tender, and juicy, I loved every bite. I wasn’t sure if I was going to like the pickled radishes but I ended up absolutely loving them, they were refreshing after eating the chicken and rice. I was satisfied with my food and look forward to enjoying it again. Customer service was nice and on time. The restaurant was very clean and orderly. I would recommend this restaurant.

Parking: Large parking lot“

“This is my go to (and my son’s) all the time. My absolute favorite are the shrimp buns. My son gets the shrimp buns and the beef bulgogi is his main course. I sometime splurge and get the 3+2 garlic and soy sauce flavored wings and drumsticks. What I love is both freshness, taste and consistency. It’s a husband and wife small business so also love being able to help our local economy. It sure helps they’re so pleasant. Their prices and portions are above average compared to similar businesses. Definitely recommend. I wish they had longer hours!!!“

“I have been a frequent customer for years. I have brought many people here from all over, and the food has never disappointed. The atmosphere could use an update, but it is clean and that is what matters most. As far as delivery, they have forgotten my order on multiple occasions. I had to call back after waiting for an hour when I was told it would be 15-25 minutes, then it arrives in 10 minutes and it is cold. I can look past that, as I live close and don’t mind just dining in. However, watch out for the waiter who asks you if you are tipping. (I always do, even though his service didn’t deserve it.) Have had him on multiple occasions and he always asks about the tip. He is a cold and overall very unfriendly and inattentive waiter. Have no complaints about any other of the waiters, I have always had a positive experience besides having him. He needs to be talked to about his etiquette, I have never had any waiter ever mention a thing about tipping. Tipping is not required and he is lucky I gave him anything.“

“This spot was really good. The fusion works. I highly recommend the fries topped with Korean and Mexican toppings. My knock on the place is the seating it's not comfortable; hard metal chairs. Also the menu doesn't match what was shown on their website. I really wanted ramen and ttebokki. But in general, taste was really good and will come again when I'm town.

The music sucks and was super loud. My whole time there, they had only played bachata (Dominican crying-love music); no K-pop nor Mexican music at all, which would've been preferred over bachata.

Server was awesome and attentive; too bad I had forgotten his name.

Parking sucks but drive around the block a few times and you'll end up finding something.“

“Incredible food every time! My family and I are obsessed. 10/10 would recommend! Joshua cooks a wide variety of cuisines and works with our dietary restrictions. He has a real passion for food that comes through in every dish. Always delicious with great service too. Also, ask about his hot sauces!“

“Dorothy is the best…. Great tasting chicken… get the shrimp dumplings…“
