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“

“One of the nicest Korean restaurants I’ve been to in the entire United States. It has a great atmosphere that reminds me of an upscale restaurant in Busan. The dishes were delicious and the portions generous. The best part was the price - possibly the best deal for the quality of the atmosphere and the food.“

“Tried Wonder for the first time and I ain’t gonna lie, it was better than I expected. I got the chicken sandwich and fries, and both were fire. The chicken was crispy, juicy, and actually seasoned. Fries came out hot too. Food was ready quick, and everything tasted fresh. Definitely one of those spots I’ll hit again when I don’t feel like cooking. Easy 9/10.“

“They were short staffed but the owners were so cute and attentive as possible. We had a larger group and ordered several items which were all delicious. The flavors weren’t extremely different from each other, even the spiciest wasn’t that spicy but the crispy outer layer of the chicken was perfect along with the tiny hint of spice. My personal fav was the galbi kimbab. Please support this local business! They even let us turn on the tv to play the Knicks game. What more can you ask for?“

“Okay so I do think this is a chicken and burger joint now combined together on the outside of the building. I really didn't notice the time for the chicken place. It was any small corner lit up attached to a burger place. With that said I am not mad at it as I ordered the bulgogi burger which was so good. Very soft and flavorful and I also ordered a order of 10-piece wings. I split it between soy, garlic and sweet and spicy. Now for me I am a Korean chicken lover and I just did it fully get the full experience of Korean Chicken meaning that in every bite it is very crunchy and it is packed with the sauce flavor on top for me. I did not get that full effect and that's really why. I love Korean f and wings that are usually double fried so they get a very nice crunch and the sauce is usually nicely styled on now. There was something wrong with the sauce but I would have liked to have a little bit more of it as well as more of a crunch. I would definitely come back here. I did notice that the burger place and the chicken plays. I have menus but a little bit different. I did order from Uber eats so I didn't really notice that at the time until I really checked out your iron. They do have the tablet where you can order from as soon as you get there. That has Uber just did for both places. However I was very happy with the wings. I got 10 pieces which I think you can order. I only ordered through the bloomberger site and they were nice sizes.“

“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.“

“Very good dolsot bibimbap but just wish it had a fried egg. My wife was happy they offered cold glass noodles as it was super hot outside, and the bingsu was a treat with the red bean flavored one being surprisingly really good (mango was great). Very large and generous portions“

“excellent food and portions highly recommend eating here“

“my family visited my aunt who lives in the area for her birthday and we thought to try this place. i’m so glad we did because they had theeeee besssst seafood scallion pancake i’ve ever had and everyone in the group loved it!
i also really liked their banchan and hot tea.
i got their spicy brisket jjampong and i was very happy with my order.
the cooking definitely has a homemade taste to it as if we just went over a family friend’s house which was a nice feeling. the guy even told us there’s no msg in the food.
i would definitely come here again and would go more often if i lived closer 😆“

“If you haven't been to Q Grill in Fort Lee yet, you are seriously missing out. We had an great meal, but a few dishes absolutely stole the show.
The experience started off strong because the banchan was incredibly plentiful, giving us so many great sides to taste. A huge standout was the kimchi, it tasted so fresh yet beautifully and well-fermented, hitting that perfect balance of crunch and tang. For the main event, we opted for the Trinity Wagyu combination, and it was spectacular. The beef was incredibly velvety, rich, and luxurious. To call it tender is an understatement—every single bite practically melted in my mouth, packed with that premium, juicy flavor you only get from high-quality Wagyu cuts.
The JapChae was executed perfectly with that ideal, bouncy chew and a beautifully balanced, savory-sweet sesame soy sauce. We also ordered the spicy rice cakes with cheese, which were the ultimate comfort food—perfectly chewy with just the right amount of kick, smothered in melted, gooey cheese.
Between the generous sides, the cheese-pulled rice cakes, and the top-tier meats from the Trinity combo, Q Grill is officially a favorite. Can't wait to come back!“

“This spot serves naengmyun that tastes better than most places in MD, though the quality of noodles are inconsistent. My son's noodles were undercooked and overly tangled, however, mine was ok. The LA galbi was very good and makes for a fantastic meal when ordered with their combo menu.“

“Best kimbap I’ve had in NJ, hands down — and I’m a visitor with high standards for food! Had it yesterday, loved it so much I came back to grab more for the plane ride home. Everything is so filling and clearly made with care — you can tell they put love into every roll. Their specialty coffee/matcha drinks are great too. Owners are super friendly. Will be back every time I’m in NJ/NY!“

“First time ordering from here, and it definitely won’t be the last! The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and nothing felt overly greasy. We placed our pickup order ahead of time, and it was ready exactly when promised, which made the whole pickup process quick and easy. Parking was easy too.

Overall, a great experience. 10/10 would order again! Definitely one of the better takeout spots around. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!“

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

“This was a great experience! We were just at Kollection grabbing some kbeauty products.. when we wanted to eat somewhere. We had no wait, and the ambiance when we walked in was so chill. The table lamps are nice. The Bossam was AMAZING! I highly recommend that dish!! Especially with friends! I would do it plain. The seafood pancake was PACKED with seafood! It was light and fluffy! Corn and cheese was everything you would want.. creamy. And cheesy! I would have like a bit more corn I guess. Fun family dinner night out! The servings are good! I wish I could order more, but I’m full!
Shout out to Thomas our waiter! He was nice and attentive. Would definitely come back here again!“

“Grandma’s Bapsang is hands down the best authentic Korean food I’ve had. It’s a true mom-and-pop restaurant that serves comforting, homemade dishes full of flavor. You can tell everything is made with care, and every bite tastes like a home-cooked meal. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the service makes you feel like family. If you’re looking for genuine Korean comfort food instead of the typical commercial spots, this place is an absolute must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great food. Worth the $$$“

“Our server Ana was very attentive, sweet, and welcoming! Whenever we would need help/assistance, she and other staff would come right away or even without us asking! The restaurant also has many options and our family had a very enjoyable experience here, definitely will come back!“

“Mannane is anything but mundane—or inane (my pun 😅). These are, without a doubt, the best dumplings I've ever had. Every dumpling was incredibly fresh, piping hot, and tasted so clean and flavorful. The filling-to-dough ratio was absolute chef's kiss. They steamed everything fresh to order, and the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly friendly.

If you're craving dumplings, these are the specialists. 10/10—I can't wait to come back.“

“Best korean shabu in Fortlee“

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

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

“First time here yesterday and the food is great! I love all the selections and there’s great vegetarian options. Their egg fried rice was super fluffy and soft, worth the try! I got about 1.5 lbs of dry pot at 0.5 spicy and it was too spicy for me. I also think the saltiness can be reduced. Service was quick and restaurant is clean.
Would definitely come back to try other items.
Only three parking spots available.“

“My family used to come here every single weekend. We’ve since moved out of state, so we can’t visit anymore — but in my 10 years of living in New York, out of every Korean BBQ place I tried across NY and NJ, this one was the best.

Everything is prepared so cleanly and carefully that I never had a second thought about bringing my kid along. Highly recommend.“

“Ordered via GrubHub for a late Friday night dinner when the sushi craving hit. I ordered a tuna bowl, and hubby had a salmon bowl. All of the sushi bar bowls come with edamame, miso soup, seaweed salad, kani salad, regular salad (in this case, it was arugula), and avocado. The fish came in huge chunks, lightly marinaded, and tasted fresh. No complaints. I’d order again and try some actual rolls next time. I saw on their menu a pretty good deal for lunch - $12.50 for three regular rolls, so I’ll have to check that out.“

“Nice welcoming and great warm service! We love authentic Korean foods and all customers were Korean except us. Noodles was little too soft but other than that we enjoyed our meal. Definitely we will return!

The best service ever. Thank you“

“The food here was great. We added this as a random stop on our way home and it did not disappoint. The dumplings were so perfectly crispy. We ordered several different specialty rolls and they food came out so quickly. It's nothing special on the inside but a lot of the best places aren't! Would definitely come back again if we pass along the way.“

“Been loving this restaurant for years… it is an absolute gem.

They offer an incredible banchan spread - clean, tasty, well balanced, never too sweet/salty - all homemade with care by their sajangnim (who also oversees the room with understated competence, the pro that she is).

Wife and I usually get chadolbegi and samgyupsal, and the cuts are always top quality. And you must know that their gyeran-jjim & denjang-jjigae (included with the meal set) are elite.

We always leave full and satisfied with the dining experience.

Notable that all of the servers are so attentive and friendly - especially Ms Kang, Ms Cho, and Helen unni (super mom of four grown kids!)… we always feel welcomed here, a neighborhood spot staffed by friends & family.

There are so many eateries in Fort Lee & Pal Park, which is of course a blessing… but Moo & Oink stands out and deserves all the stars!“

“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!“

“Lovely Sushi Space! Don’t miss this family spot! Dropped in with about 16 people they set us up with ease and comfort. Handled with love and dedication. Every necessity curated to feel like we stepped into our home for a comfortable family setting.
One of my favorites in the area!
Great fish and freshness.

Truly, we had such a good time that we simply couldn’t remember to photograph mid dinner, so it’s just a bunch of happy satiated clowns.“

“Fantastic, such a convenient place with great late night hours!“

“Delicious food and friendly service. Top notch!“

“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!“

“I used Duri for my baby’s first birthday party and it was one of the best decisions I made! Andy is so kind and he was very easy to email with about the menu, price, and quantity.

I did a buffet style for our party in Manhattan and they were able to deliver. Delivery was timely and the food was so delicious all my guests were talking about it afterwards! A few friends even decided to cater from Duri after trying it at the party.

Will definitely go with Duri again for future events.

Everything was delicious but some standout dishes were the Kalbi JJIM and Shrimp tempura with sweet chili sauce on the side. Crowd pleasers!“

“Had a delicious and quick lunch here before driving upstate from Queens - very affordable, nangmyeon was slushy, full of flavor and extra chewy noodles. Portions were great, service so friendly! Will come back when I’m in the area :) Thank you!“

“This place is like a hidden gem! Some reviews mentioned the food isn't as good as pictured, but you really can't beat it for the price. For $8–$13, you get a solid portion of hot, home-style Korean food instead of basic fast food. If you're expecting top-tier quality or a massive variety, you'd easily spend $30–$40 per person at a sit-down spot plus tip. Overall, this is easily one of the best go-to takeout spots around in Fort Lee. I've been ordering food from there for long time.“

“I recently moved to the area and Ive been on the hunt for the best food in the area - one of which was finding my new go to korean fried chicken place. This place did not disappoint and the high reviews left here are worth the hype. Ordered the spicy soy garlic + fries combo and it was deeeelicious. Fresh, hot, with the perfect amount of spice and the wings are bigger than what you'd get at a chain fried chicken restaurant. I also upgraded my fries to the truffle parmesean - truffle isnt as outstanding of a flavor but the parm was pretty good. The service is also so nice! Ill definitely be back to try their other food~“

“I’ve been coming to Sushi Story since the day it opened, and it continues to impress every single time. The first thing that stood out to me was the service—warm, immediate, and sincere. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted and made to feel welcome. The waitresses are consistently polite, attentive, and always carry a genuine smile. In particular, the waitress with the slicked-back hair has a way of elevating every visit; she’s made several special occasions truly memorable. The restaurant is almost always busy, and for good reason. Because seating can be difficult to secure, I strongly recommend making an RSVP ahead of time. Even with the constant flow of guests, the experience never feels rushed. The master sushi chef is actively engaged with diners, adding an extra touch of authenticity and hospitality to the meal. As for the food—exceptional. The salmon and tuna are always fresh, vibrant, and prepared perfectly. It’s easily one of the best places to enjoy a great evening out with family or friends. And don’t forget: it’s BYOB, so feel free to bring your favorite bottle of wine. Sushi Story is truly a gem, and I look forward to visiting again very soon.“

“Such an underrated spot, they have some incredible food here! My fav is definitely their Berkshire tonkatsu and cha soba noodles ( so refreshing).

The tonkatsu is crispy yet juicy and tender - probably one of the best tonkatsu I’ve had in NJ.

10/10 recommend“

“Food is excellent, service is good and polite, atmosphere is gentle peaceful and clean. I highly recommend here, especially parties for 10-50 ppl.“

“We had such a great experience here! Everything was absolutely delicious. We ordered the beef noodles with vegetables and the dumpling soup, and both were excellent. The complimentary side dishes were incredibly tasty, and we loved learning that many of the vegetables are grown by their own garden it really shows in the freshness and flavor.

The tea was also wonderful and paired perfectly with the meal.

The prices were very reasonable for the quality and generous portions. We enjoyed everything so much that we even ordered extra food to take home for our kids.

Friendly service, amazing food, fresh ingredients, and excellent value.

We will definitely be coming back.
Highly recommended! ⭐“

“I love Bb.q chicken with all my heart. This is one of the best fried chicken places I ever tried. The chicken is ver juicy and fresh. I personally love the secret sauce bone- in wings but my friends like the honey garlic wings better. Give this place a try!!!“

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

“While Korean food has become increasingly popular in the U.S. over the past decade, it feels like most options skew toward two extremes: fast food (chicken, 떡복기, ramen, etc.) or rarefied Michelin experiences with impossibly competitive reservations. The Plating offers a much-needed middle ground. All the dishes are readily recognizable to anyone who's grown up with traditional Korean food and flavors, but they're executed in a refined, precise, and intentionally modern way that elevates them a cut above the average Korean restaurant in the suburbs.

I was in a party of 4, and we ordered a dinner course menu. Every plate was delicious, and we were very full when we left.

The chef/owner is the sole cook, so if she is booked for private events, the restaurant closes for the day. To avoid disappointment, CALL AHEAD to check if the restaurant is open. It may feel like a hassle, but I enjoyed my meal enough to feel that the call is worth it.“

“맛있네요! 이동네 오래간만에 갈한만 갈비집이 생겼어요!! ^^“

“Good food good service I will come back !“

“It's such a futuristic way of getting your Korean fried chicken. So simplistic so to the point crunch is phenomenal, And even though it's made to order it's still fast! It reminds me of those individual food dining cubbies/booths for people who like minimal contact/interactions during dining that I've tried in Japan before. A lot of the items that I wanted were sold out but the experience was so well that I will go back again in hopes to get those items ☺️

(I'm not a spicy person but if you are the bokki is perfect for you, to me it was too spicy to enjoy unfortunately, even with the cheese added. But everything else about the bokki was spot on delicious!)“

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

“To be honest, I almost didn't go after reading a few bad reviews. But looking back, I had nothing to worry about—the meal exceeded all my expectations.

I wanted to try their Japanese A5 Wagyu cooked over traditional Korean charcoal. The place was spacious with great table spacing, and the ventilation was so good there was zero greasy BBQ smell. They use built-in charcoal grills, which kept the table clean. Plus, the staff explained each cut and grilled everything for us, making it a super relaxing meal.

The table setting was beautiful, 8 side dishes served in traditional brassware, plus salad, scallion salad, soybean paste stew, and steamed egg. Wagyu can get a bit heavy because of the rich marbling, but the Korean side dishes and stews balanced out the oiliness perfectly.

We started with the Ribeye and Snowflake Wagyu.
Being A5 grade, it literally melted in my mouth.
Since it’s premium cut, it’s on the pricier side ($75–$80+ per dish). However, the owner believes in generous portions (250g ribeye, 200g snow flower), so we left completely full.

To wrap things up, we ordered the marinated galbi made with American Wagyu. It was slightly cheaper and had that classic savory-sweet marinade. If you’re going as a pair, I highly recommend getting the Ribeye + Snowflake and adding 1 order of marinated galbi.

It’s been hard to find a solid Wagyu spot in this part of NJ.
If you’re looking for a clean, quiet place to enjoy quality charcoal-grilled Wagyu, this is definitely worth a visit!“
