50 Best Korean Restaurants near Westwood

“The BON bento box was hands down the best choice – everything was fresh, the evening with friends was so enjoyable, and I can’t wait to come back!"“

“The food it was really good and reasonable price See you again Bop N Sushi“

The place was very clean and pretty.
We’ve been coming here often for a long time. The food is so delicious that we just keep eating!
The staff are very friendly and come by often to ask if we need anything.
We had a great meal and it made us happy.“

“excellent food and portions highly recommend eating here“

“Really enjoyed the food from Bloom Chicken.

The small boneless chicken was honestly huge and the chicken was super crispy. The spicy rice cakes were way better than I expected — especially since I don’t usually like rice cakes.

The only thing keeping this from a 5-star review is that it came with no radish, no dipping sauce, nothing on the side.

For $14 for a small order, I’d expect at least some radish, I’d also give up a few pieces of chicken for radish.

Also, it’s definitely more of a take-out spot — the covered patio is nice but not heated, therefore I ate my food in the car since it was cold.

Overall though, really solid food and an easy 4-star meal.“

“Always a great meal. Staff is friendly and welcoming. Owner is very nice and always making sure everything is to satisfaction. Very clean and sanitary. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone.“

“여기 뒤지게 맛있습니다.. 진짜 짱!!! 강추입니다!!

This chicken was insanely good. Every bite was crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. Honestly, it was so delicious it should be illegal. I've had a lot of chicken in my life, but this one? Next level. Absolute flavor explosion. 10/10 — would fight someone for the last piece.“

“Phenomenal. I can’t get over how sweet the lady who attended us was. This is the first restaurant I’ve been to where i felt as if the food was truly made with love. The food itself was absolutely delicious, and the price was very reasonable. My friend and I ordered the fried chicken, tteokbokki, and bulgogi kimbap. The portions were perfect, we finished ALL of it (and licked our fingers clean). Their plates are also so cute if I may add. I will definitely bring all of my friends here when they visit Teaneck.“

“I wish I took a photo before I ate it. But, if you want something clean and delicious to eat for Korean food, this is THE spot to eat at out of the tri-state area. Usually Korean soup based foods tend to have either too much sodium and additives to make the flavor powerful, or not enough to bring the flavor out. Genuinely, you can NEVER go wrong with this place. I got 육개장 칼국수 (Spicy Beef Handmade Noodle Soup), and you can ask to see if you can add dumplings in the soup for extra.“

“Such comforting and delicious soups 🤍 I usually get the dumpling and rice cake soup and it’s hardy and the perfect pick me up after a long day. Their banchan is also immaculate, fresh, and flavorful! Happy to support this small business and will be continuing to order from them 😊“

“Wonderful experience for our family’s Christmas dinner today. Everyone from the hostess, servers and managers was so attentive to all of our needs and requests. My first time at this SGD location and the food was delicious and the Mango Bingsoo did not disappoint.“

“Fabulous place to eat! It’s been a place that hasn’t changed in all these years and the service is always top notch here!“

“So clean! I walked in and thought I had walked into a dental office! The owner is very friendly and told me his 15 year experience making dumplings by hand. For home made quality abd taste, the prices were great. They even steam the dumpling for you on the spot so you can have hot, steamy dumplings. I got pork, kimchi pork, and beef chive dumplings and they were perfect. Definitely coming back to pick up frozen ones to enjoy at home!“

“Jangkalguksu was delicious. The moderately spicy and moderately rich taste of the soybean paste soup went well with the chewy noodles. The soup would have been delicious even when eaten with rice. I didn't add rice because I thought I would be too full. To be strict, I was a little disappointed that jalapenos were used instead of Cheongyang peppers because of the greenish smell of jalapenos, but considering that it is not easy to find Cheongyang peppers here and that jalapenos are an excellent ingredient for adding spiciness, I can fully understand it. It was part.“

“Great food. Worth the $$$“

“This place has been around for over two years, but I finally got to visit. Honestly, it’s been a long time since I’ve had a Korean spot where even the kimchi impressed me this much. The fresh kimchi tasted just like something my mom would make!

I thought the prices were a bit high compared to spots nearby, but the food was so good that I’m glad I came. After enjoying the gamjatang, I even came back for the ajusshi gukbap because it was that good!“

“I came here one night to try for dinner with a group of friends. I really enjoyed the noodles here! My friends ordered the clam soup with kalgusuk, and the noodles are at a perfect texture and the serving size was a lot. I would say good to share! I ordered the mandu soup with rice on the side, flavor was perfect! The fried dumplings was also nice, and it was great to share. Great kimchi as well!“

“We were traveling through Jersey and this was our to-go spot for breakfast with the kids. Service is wonderful and the food is so hearty, clean, and DELICIOUS. When traveling it's always very greasy foods- this is a perfect place to get a good healthy bite to eat. 10/10 recommend!“

“Food was great and the service was very good. Surely we will come back and we will recommend the place.“

“The lady at the front desk has a great smile and very friendly! We loved the food here and it’s the perfect spot right after a day at hot spa sauna next door. The seafood pancake was so crispy and it’s cheaper than anywhere else in the area.“

“집에서 만든것 같은 음식의맛!!!이죠! 외국인에게도 더많이 사랑받아서 한국음식을 알릴수있는 무지개잔치집이길 바래요!*^^*“

“If you see a sign that says Tomo Sushi, it's the right place. I was confused because I came for Hama Korean, but I talked to the owner of the restaurant and she said it's Hama Korean. I almost went back home, but I am glad I asked the owner.

I absolutely loved food - especially bibimbap - at Hama Korean and so good.

The sign may say Tomo Sushi, but when I asked the restaurant owner, he said it was Hippo Korean. The owners are the same and the food tastes just as good ^^“

“Came here with a couple of friends Sunday evening & was impressed with the quality and freshness of the food. It was on par with some of the really good places in Korea. Very authentic korean cuisine. Coming back for sure! Service was fast & friendly. 👍👍“

“I went there by myself and order the grilled mackerel and seafood tofu soup combo. Everything tasted great. The seafood tofu soup was flavorful and not too spicy. I love the side dishes too. I wish I had a bigger stomach to finish everything. I saw other tables doing KBBQ, the meats seemed to be of high quality and offers table side service. The service staff were very attentive.“

“weekend morning — and it was fantastic!
Only $9.99, but the quality was outstanding.
The broth was rich and flavorful without being greasy, and it came with plenty of tender beef.
Even the kimchi and radish kimchi were fresh and perfectly seasoned.
For the price, quality, and care, this place absolutely delivers.

👉 Must-try: Seolleongtang 🍲
👉 Would visit again: Definitely yes 💯“

“It's sooooo good! Authentic Korean Delicious Food with Great Costumer service and ambiance. See you again next time. 🤩👍“

“THIS IS MY FAVE / GO TO GALBITANG SPOT

The meat here is sooooo tender and falls right off the bone!! Portion size is also very generous here!!

What not to love?!

We also tried their muksal gul which tastes like the viet pork chop but meat also very tender and juicy

Summer time I usually get their cold noodles and those are also great here too!!

I usually go to their original location but the fort lee location is just as good but only downside is parking is a bit hard to find here
We got free japchae which was a big bonus too!

My fave thing about this place is their unlimited free collagen beef bone soup!!

You also order right at the cashier so you don't have to tip here“

“Nice modern Korean restaurant. We ordered Gujeolpan for appetizer, and Neobiani and Branzino sotbap for main dishes. Everything was delicious and neatly plated, but I think they’re a bit overpriced compared to other contemporary Korean restaurants in the area. Bring cash - thank me later.“

“맛있네요! 이동네 오래간만에 갈한만 갈비집이 생겼어요!! ^^“

“I order from here often and you can rely on their menu items. But today I wanted to rave about their Pork Kimchi Jjangbong. It was like a kimchi jjigae with noodles. It was AMAZING!!. The flavor was on point!

I will order it with a rice next time.“

“Absolutely fantastic taste, we already had lunch then saw this bbq chicken we thought of buying it for evening dinner, when the food came its smell/taste made us eat the whole order. Like I said unbelievable taste. Same taste they have in South Korea. Spicy Sweet combination is craving feature.“

“The food here is really great. All of the ox bone soups are a must-try, but for me my favorite item is the grilled mackerel. Service is polite but no frills and atmosphere is hole-in-the-wall. There often is a line to sit for dinner but it moves pretty fast. Good for small groups as they serve a lot of larger plates for sharing. I love this place and I hope it is here for a very long time!“

“Yook92 is easily my favorite Korean BBQ spot in New Jersey. The quality of the meat is consistently excellent; well-marbled, flavorful, and always fresh. Whether it’s brisket, or marinated short ribs, everything is grilled to perfection.

The service here is also top-notch. Staff are attentive, friendly, and quick to assist with grilling or refills, which really elevates the whole dining experience. Beyond BBQ, their kitchen menu is worth exploring, especially the kimchi fried rice and galbitang, both of which are flavorful, comforting, and highly recommended.

From food to service, Yook92 delivers a standout Korean BBQ experience that keeps me coming back.“

“While eating bossam here, I asked to take the leftovers to go. At many places, when you box food after starting a meal, they usually only pack the main dish.

But here, they thoughtfully packed everything that goes with bossam — the garlic, peppers, ssamjang, shrimp paste, and even the kimchi. It may seem like a small detail, but it honestly meant a lot to me.

I know this could be inconvenient for the servers, yet they did it without hesitation. That level of care and consideration truly impressed me. Excellent service and attention to detail — I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“We’ve been here many times, and the service is always excellent. It’s a great spot to visit, especially if someone in the group isn’t a fan of seafood. Although it’s a seafood restaurant, they offer a variety of delicious Korean dishes. Our favorites are 김치찌개, 돈까스, and 한치회무침—which almost tastes like 물회, just without the soup. All the rolls are fantastic as well. Highly recommend!“

“Best korean shabu in Fortlee“

“I visited this spot for the first time yesterday evening. We had a variety of Korean foods (radish kimchi, japchae, dried pollack, spring rolls) and all of them were very good. It was a total lifesaver as both my wife and I are new parents, which makes cooking difficult. I plan on coming here again and would not hesitate to recommend the store.“

“Just be mindful that the restaurant is located inside the golf academy, once you enter the building the entrance is on your left.Overall had an amazing experience, they will give you an extraordinary service and treat you like a valued customer at all time. All the dishes are delicious, yet low sodium, fresh ingredients. They have a seasonal menu and it's the best to follow what the owner suggest. They usually have very traditional, healthy dishes.“

“Great experience, awesome food, and the staff are super friendly. The atmosphere is very chill and they're open late. The owner even came out and schooled us on how to cook shabu shabu properly. Highly recommended, it's also kid friendly and they'll be open during lunch hours during the summer season. The patrons there won't cause a ruckus and it's a great crowd all around.“

“It’s pretty awesome to devour unexpected high quality of donkatsu (pork cutlets) in a food court setting.

There’s only one other restaurant that makes better or similar donkatsu in NJ. That would be Katsune in Fort Lee. Katsune simply knows how to fry cutlets crispy without being greasy. While maintaining the juicy and savory protein inside the fried bread crumbs.

I highly recommend Katsune Donkatsu if you are visiting Little Ferry Hmart and looking something to eat.“

“This place is SUPER affordable and the food is amazing ! I have been here twice two days back to back and will probably be going again. They are very nice and the food is very comforting. They change the sides up and it’s always delicious! Imagine all this for 12 bucks!!!! Spicy pork and the other is the beef bento Box“

“I absolutely love Anytime Kitchen in Fort Lee! From the vibe to the service and, of course, the food—it’s all excellent.
I’ve tried several dishes here: Uni Buckwheat Noodles, Old-Fashioned Fried Chicken, Clam sujebi (수제비) , Spicy Seafood Stew, Beef Tartare, and Sweet Potato Fries. The Uni Buckwheat Noodles taste luxurious—perfect if you want a refreshing, pasta-like dish. The Old-Fashioned Fried Chicken takes a little time to cook, but it’s totally worth the wait—they even cut it for you! The Handmade Dumpling Soup is so 얼큰 and flavorful you might find yourself reaching for a whole bottle of soju, and their soups always come in very generous portions. The Spicy Seafood Stew is huge and packed with fresh seafood—it’s definitely worth the price. Sweet potatoe fries and beef tartare is a good option for side dishes. We got a service I think the name was seafood avocado but that was def would be a great side dish when drinking wine.
The service is excellent too. I dropped my fork once, and someone immediately brought me a new one—attentive service like that really makes a difference.
The vibe of the restaurant strikes a perfect balance between elegance and casual comfort. It’s great for a casual date, a team outing, or just a relaxed night out.
I will definitely be coming back and would highly recommend Anytime Kitchen to my friends. This place is a hidden gem that hits all the right notes!
* I don’t have all the pics *“

“Completely surprised and intrigued with the menu. This is NOT a Mexican food restaurant as the name might fool you. The shrimp taco wrapped in seaweed paper was so fresh tasting,crunchy and absolutely delish. Fried rice served in your own skillet and you mix the egg in was the best! The smores waffle with homemade custard ice-cream was to die for. Bartender Robbie is a pro mixologist with really new style drinks. This place was a treat and I cant wait to go back. Also the service was perfect!“

“맛있어요 그런데 국물요리맛에 기복이 있어요. 보통 식당에서 팔지않는 별미들이 많아서 좋아요. 더욱더 새로운 요리들을 개발해주셨으면해요.“

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

“I absolutely love this place! Their spicy fried chicken is on another level..!! super crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. The heat is perfect, not overpowering but enough to keep you reaching for more. And the Dukbokki is just as amazing.. chewy, rich, and full of that classic Korean street food taste.

The food always comes out fresh, and the portions are generous. If you’re craving authentic Korean comfort food, this is the spot. Definitely my go-to for fried chicken!“

“New owner!

Very nice atmosphere, super comfortable. The food is delicious and menu is affordable for the quality of the food you are getting. My husband and I had the Agedashi Tofu, Pork Sirloin Katsu, Tuna Kimbap, and Potato Croquette. For dessert we had the Mango Bingsoo.

The bingsoo is probably the best in the area! Full of delicious mango, and syrup. It’s very tall too, so it’s a good deal.

The owner is very nice. Always provided a quick hot water refill.

It’s really very comfortable here. I could see myself sitting here for a while to just decompress. Will come back!“

“Located inside Han Nam Market, this is by far the best quality and cheapest priced korean food i've tried in NJ. It tastes very similar to my 할머니's cooking in Gapyeong, South Korea.

They have cheap combo prices between $8-16 and serving is very big! It comes with side dishes too! They accept most major credit cards incase you don't have cash.

Plenty of FREE parking outside the market, it does get busy on certain hours.“
