50 Best Korean Restaurants near Douglaston

“Ordered takeout from Don Chicken on Northern Blvd and went for the Spicy Soy Garlic Chicken and it did not disappoint. The pieces were pretty big, juicy inside, and had that trademark Korean fried chicken crunch: thin, shatter-crispy, never greasy. The soy garlic glaze was spot on savory, garlicky, with just enough kick to keep me reaching for another bite.

I also tried the Sweet & Spicy flavor not bad at all, just leaned sweeter than what I usually like.

What I really appreciate is how Korean fried chicken is different from the fried chicken most of us grew up with. Instead of a thick, heavy batter, it’s double-fried a method that actually came about in Korea in the 1960s and 70s when fried chicken started getting popular alongside beer (“chimaek,” short for chicken + maekju/beer, is now a whole culture). That double fry gives you the crunch without the grease, and the sauces like this soy garlic add layered flavor instead of just salt and breading.

For takeout, it traveled well too the chicken stayed crisp even by the time I got home, which tells you they’re doing it right. Generous portions, bold flavor, and that authentic K-fried crispness make the spicy soy garlic the clear winner for me.“

“What a great culinary treat to try Korean kimchi from pickles, radishes, cabbage, carrots, onions, scallions, etc. Very refreshing vegetarian options served with wild rice and hot tea. Great probiotic and prebiotic food options to help make digestion easy and light.
For Pescatarians, they have very delicious fried fish like mackerel that even my kids enjoyed with kimchi once I took the fishbones out of the fish.
Thank you for a tasty, informative, and refreshing meal that our our whole family enjoyed. 5 stars.“

“What a lovely Korean fried chicken spot nestled away inside the back of a supermarket. 98% halal menu which is awesome. Try their chicken sandwiches, onion rings & variety of sauces. Their flavors are unmatched! You'll love them just as much as I did.“

“PHENOMENAL!!!! Top quality meats through and through. Repeat customer. 👍🏻“

“Was very good meat and the atmosphere nice .“

“Really good food. Unique service and prices are the best. I totally recommend if you want a real Korean bbq. I travel from Connecticut to flushing NY totally worth it.“

“Nice soup 🍜 delicious .....“

“Woodam is definitely worth a visit! The food was delicious, the prices were very reasonable, and the service was excellent. Our waitress was warm, attentive, and made us feel very welcome throughout the meal. Great value for the quality of the food and overall dining experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Mr. Dak is definitely a spot worth visiting if you're craving delicious Korean food. Everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The avocado chicken cucumber salad was light, refreshing, and a perfect starter. The wings were crispy, juicy, and came with amazing flavor options. The chicken with rice was incredibly satisfying with generous portions, and the ramen was rich, comforting, and packed with flavor.
The drinks complemented the meal perfectly, and the overall quality of the food was excellent. The atmosphere was clean and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout our visit.
If you're looking for authentic Korean flavors with generous portions and great service, I highly recommend checking out Mr. Dak. I'll definitely be coming back to try more from the menu!“

“This place became my place to go definitely!!! I had ‘Galchi jorim’ yesterday. It was BEST in NY!!!! I don’t enjoy korean food here NJ and NY bcz too sweet!!! But this place was perfect. Maybe it’s not fancy place if you are looking for but food was authentic!! The owner was very friendly!!“

“SEOUL TOFU is a solid option if you’re craving some good old-fashioned Korean food. This replaced Witch Topokki but they didn’t change much other than their food menu. You can still see traces of the old restaurant on the table and on their silverware.

Seafood Pancake 10/10 - So crispy! I like pancakes that are crispy all around the edges and contain a lot of seafood.
Grilled Yellow Croaker 8/10 - Good value but a tad too salty.
Kimchi Beef Soon Tofu 9/10“

“It’s too far and lonely in the area by the time we got here BUT!!!!! Really loved the vibe here and the food are soooooooooooo good! And the drinks are good too I mean I know how to enjoy the sojus hahaha. Really recommend this place, it’s a hidden gem for me! ✨
I don’t know if we’d have the same taste but you should try it out! It’s so peaceful here. ^^“

“Great service and friendly workers“

“The food was amazing and the service was even better. Our server Miso was extremely attentive and made the best food recommendations. We were originally going to eat elsewhere but I’m so glad we ended up here instead. 11/10 from the service alone and would come back again.“

“The food was great; the soup was especially tasty! The only thing I’d recommend is cranking up the AC a little more in the summer as I was pretty much sweating while eating, especially when it’s hot soup. Otherwise, great!“

“AWESOME KOREAN RESTAURANT IN LONG ISLAND: I’m not a foodie and I don’t think I’ve ever posted about restaurants (but I am Korean) - I have to make an exception for this place. Yes, this restaurant is on Long Island, but the Korean food EXCELLENT (better than lots of places in Flushing) and service is OUTSTANDING. Every dish we’ve tried so far (짜장면, 순두부찌개, 육개장, 제육덮밥) has been so amazing, delicious, and authentic (especially the spices!!!). If you’re ever in the area, please stop in and eat here. It’s crazy awesome! Thanks to my friend for encouraging me to try at a Korean restaurant that is not in Queens. My family will be forever grateful - five stars and 2 thumbs way up from me and my family members. :)“

“我想問如果要坐輪椅。有沒有升降電梯的“

“I had recently left a negative review but the establishment responded that I had the kitchen times incorrect (I did). Anyway, deleted that review and came back again at an earlier time and WHOAAAA so glad I came back. So so so delicious. 100/100. Thank you for this amazing food and experience. 🥰“

“Delicious food! Great addition to forest hills. Friendly staff“

“My boyfriend and I absolutely LOVE this place. They have the best oxtail soup in the area and we always order it with either jokbal and/or seafood pancake. Last time we spoke with the only male server/staff (our favorite and always provides the best service) and learned that it was stewed for (?I think he said) 8+ hrs or something along those lines. They also have the best side dishes, as my boyfriend loves their cabbage kimchi. However, we wouldn’t recommend ordering the galbi as it is relatively tough and tastes like it was cooked in a pan rather than a grill. We tried some of their other soup dishes but weren’t too big a fan of those either. Usually the place is pretty cozy but sometimes they do host large parties, where it can get pretty rowdy. Definitely a hidden gem we visit pretty frequently.“

“I came here for the first time and it was very good. The food was amazing and the customer service was phenomenal. Very delicious and filling meal. I came with a lot of family and they did a great job taking the orders and giving us an insight about what the food is. I would definitely come back because it’s a nice hangout and dinner place to go to even though we went on a rainy day. I really recommend this especially because as a Muslim it can be hard to find good food spots.“

“This is the most delicious Korean Chinese restaurant I‘ve ever eaten. The place is clean and friendly. I love this place and Truly recommend ~!!!!“

“Definitely coming back with family 🥰“

“Great food. Large portions!“

“My friend and I wanted some warm soup in the cold winter, so we found this gem around the area!

Really quick service and the owner was so considerate and sweet.

We got the army stew, seafood pancake and steamed dumplings (also can order as fried). Everything hit the spot and we even had enough as leftover to take home as two people eating!

Definitely a really good lunch/dinner spot and will definitely be coming back!“

“New favorite place to eat in Wichita. amazing food and amazing service. 10 out of 10“

“I ordered Mackerel Ssam, and it had a lot of colorful vegetables, so it looked good and tasted good. I tried it once and it was so delicious that I keep thinking about it!

Spicy ecological hot pot popular in winter
The more you eat it, the more refreshing the spicy taste becomes.
Stir-fried wood ear mushrooms, seasoned spinach, pickled red peppers, seasoned bean sprouts, kimchi, seasoned perilla eggplant, stir-fried anchovies and beans.
It's light, nutritious, and full of fresh vegetables, so you can eat a full bowl of rice just by eating it as a side dish.

Fresh pork, chewy meat, savory flavor
Feeling full after eating“

“This is very personal review.
Im crazy of sashimi.
It is very impossible to find raw live fish in other states.
But, Only N.Y and L.A. does have this because they have so enough sashimi restaurants with high demand that they could import raw fishes with acceptable Transportation costs from korea by airplanes.
This is economies of scale.
Anyway,
Sashimi was excellent for me.
Service and Atmosphere doesn't matter to me.
I was so happy to enjoy live fish.
I recommend you to visit if you like to live seafood.“

“Delicious. Great omakase. Chef was fantastic and seems to really enjoy coming up with menu ideas. It was a lot of food. Almost too much food though, and it would've been great to know what the dishes were or how many there were. Standouts were the mussels in broth and an acorn dish with delicious sauce.

There's a plastic tarp behind the bar that makes you feel like you're in a street market even when inside“

“Tried a late night meal here after craving some authentic Korean food. Waitress was very sweet and friendly. There was a slight language barrier however wait staff was attentive and professional. I wish the dishes and sides could be explained a bit for first timers. We got seated right away and there wasn't a long wait for the food to arrive. The food was delicious. It was just the perfect amount of spice and flavor. The dishes like the hot stone rice bowl with stir fried spicy pork and vegetables stayed hot and crispy at the bottom, throughout dinner so every bite was enjoyable. Pancakes are huge, like a pizza pie. All portions seemed large enough to share. Lots of locals and regulars were in the restaurant which is always a good sign. Parking can be challenging as it's only street parking. Otherwise Highly recommend.“

“Love the food quality and service here! I had a great time enjoying a delicious meal without having to grill the food myself, which was a huge plus. The staff also kept refilling the side dishes throughout the meal, making sure we always had plenty to eat. Highly recommend!“

“Superfood is the number one choice for food in my neighborhood. Everything from the ordering process to picking up the food is usually seamless. The food is fresh and tastes very good consistently every time. To top it off, the people working there are probably some of the friendliest people I have ever met.

I would highly recommend this place if you are around, as they are quick easy and tasty.“

“I Am Kimchi is a quaint little place that serves insanely delicious food in huge portions at great prices.
All the food came in portions bigger than I expected, and the taste was absolutely phenomenal.
Though the place is a bit small (a few tables for 4 people and a few for 2), it only adds to the vibe of the place. It really feels like eating a comforting meal inside someone’s house.
The service is great, the servers are friendly and food comes out quick as well.
Everything on the menu I ate was delicious and the price was super worth it, and it overall felt like a nice, warm meal that I will definitely be coming back to.
10/10 would recommend.“

“If you’re craving authentic Korean cuisine, Tosokchon is the plafe!!! We ordered in galbitang, seoulungtang, and gukbap, and each dish was a flavor-packed delight.

The service was exceptional, attentive without being intrusive making us feel right at home. Our experience at Tosokchon was fantastic, and I can’t wait to return for another round of their delicious offerings.

Highly recommend!“

“staff is friendly and the dogs are incredible! highly recommend the flaming hot cheeto“

“학원 근처라 자주 오는데 음식이 very 빨리나오는데 짱맛있.. 허걱 ! 직원분들이 너무너무 친절하세용ㅎㅎ 꿀꿀 돼지한마리로써 먹는거 굉장히좋아하는데 강.추 ㅇi런ㅁr슨첨ㅇi양..^^⭐️ 둘이먹다 하나가뒤져도 모를 맛!“

“Checked out this Korean spot over the weekend. The service was great, though the menu is pretty limited.
I tried the beef bulgogi soft tofu stew, but the veggies inside were bitter, which made the whole thing taste bitter. I let our server know, and they kindly took it off the bill.
On the bright side, the seafood pancake was amazing and had so much seafood in it! I really appreciated how they handled everything, so I’d still recommend giving them a try.“

“A fantastic spot for Korean!

Each dish was prepared with the utmost quality. Every bite was exuberant and delivered a sense of comfort and flavor.

The steamed pork belly is a great sharable dish. The side dishes were fresh.

Service was great and the place was clean.

Would recommend!“

“Love this place!!!!! Food 🥘 and service is exceptional“

“Really enjoyed the food here and it was so good. We got the pork cutlet which was really crispy and the portion sizes were huge. The bulgogi kimbap was really juicy and practically melts in your mouth. The pricing was really fair and the total was about 40 bucks. The food came out fast and it was really fresh.“

“The best pizza ever! the customer service is amazing! ❤️ Been there a lot of times!“

“My sister is visiting from Taiwan, and she loves trying Korean food. Today, after attending the 47th Annual Thunderbird American Indian Powwow, we stopped by Biwon Korean BBQ, which was nearby, and it turned out to be an amazing experience.

The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We ordered two dishes—pork and chicken—and both were absolutely delicious. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked.

One of the highlights of our meal was the generous variety of complimentary side dishes. There were so many to choose from, and every one of them was delicious.

I highly recommend Biwon Korean BBQ. We had a wonderful dining experience.“

“This study investigated whether a single meal could simultaneously achieve crispiness, juiciness, and exceptional flavor. The results were conclusive. The chicken exhibited a remarkably crispy exterior while maintaining a tender and juicy interior, and the sauce was evenly distributed with an excellent balance of sweetness and spice. The burger further demonstrated strong structural integrity, generous portioning, and a satisfying combination of fresh vegetables and crispy chicken. Based on these observations, Mom’s Touch provides statistically significant evidence that fast food can be both affordable and genuinely delicious. Further visits are strongly recommended.“

“Went to Fly Chick to the Moon last night with three other people, and it turned out to be a great experience from start to finish.

We started with the guacamole, which was clearly made fresh to order. It came out in a cast iron dish and had a nice chunky texture with avocado, tomato, and onion. You could taste how fresh everything was—simple, clean, and really well done.

For appetizers, we ordered the boneless chicken, parmesan fries, and fried pork dumplings. Everything came out hot and crispy. The boneless chicken had a good crunch on the outside while staying juicy inside, and the parmesan fries were loaded with flavor—salty, cheesy, and hard to stop eating. The fried pork dumplings were another solid choice, with a crispy exterior and a flavorful filling.

For the main course, we went with the taco party platter (16 pieces) for $62.40, which breaks down to about $3.90 per taco—honestly a great deal for the quality and variety. The platter included four different types, with four tacos of each:

Taco al pastor (adobado pork with grilled pineapple)
Birria tacos
Beef kimchi tacos
Tacos de asada

Each one had its own distinct flavor. The al pastor had that perfect sweet and savory balance from the pineapple, the birria tacos were rich and satisfying, the beef kimchi tacos brought a nice fusion twist with a bit of tang, and the asada tacos were classic and well-seasoned.

Fly Chick to the Moon recently expanded their kitchen with Chef Noe Emiliano, bringing in more authentic Mexican options. We’ve always enjoyed their fried chicken wings, but now having Korean-Mexican tacos on the menu really adds another layer to the place.

If you’re planning to go, there are some great deals during the week. Tuesday is Taco Tuesday with a buy-one-get-one-free taco offer, and Wednesday is $1 wings (minimum order of 10). Both are seriously good value.

Safe to say, I’ll be back—probably every Tuesday and Wednesday.“

“They are known for their duck which is really good. I tried both the regular and thinly sliced and would recommend the regular for the more “meaty” flavor as the thinly sliced was crispy and reminded me of brisket. Great service with very nice side dishes as well. Would come back!“

“Food are Great and so delicious! Staff are Nice...outstanding Service.i'm here almost every week. I can't survive a month without eating here🤣🤣🤣“

“This restaurant serves delicious dishes like sundae soup, stir-fried gopchang, and kimchi stew, but what really stood out to me were the neatly prepared side dishes and perfectly cooked rice.
On top of that, the owner is incredibly kind and welcoming.
If you're craving authentic Korean home-style meals, I genuinely recommend coming here!“

“The location, atmosphere, and venue are all very pleasant. Just keep in mind that if you sit outside at night, the music can make it difficult for the servers to hear the call button when you need assistance. Because of that, I’d like to give a special mention to *Brian, who was the only server consistently attentive to my table while everyone else kept walking past me! *Carlos was also incredibly helpful and accommodating. And the Bulgogi nachos are a 10/10 🫨“

“The crispy spicy with the elementary spicy is A1. Truffle fries one of the best around and great service“

“Music a bit loud but thats not the issue i wish the waiter would ask if we need anything like sides and stuff would be helpful but overall nice place good meats 🍖 hopefully next time they improve we bump em up to a 5 i wanna give 5 so badly 😢“
