50 Best Korean Restaurants near Port Washington

“A newly opened Korean spot that’s definitely worth checking out. We ordered the kimchi pancake, beef tofu stew, and their jajangmyeon over rice. The standout was the jajangmyeon over rice—really delicious, and not something I’ve seen offered at many other Korean restaurants.

The restaurant is very clean, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We’ll be back to try more dishes.“

“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.“

“Delicious, every item! I love ordering from here, there are so many options to add different items to salads and soups. All are delicious.“

“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.“

“Was very good meat and the atmosphere nice .“

“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!!“

“Hidden gem in FLS for Korean fried chicken 🤯

Went with a friend and ordered two combos—great value and basically covers everything you’d want 😋

🍗 Wings + drumsticks were super juicy with a thin, crispy coating. Tons of sauce options—Soy Garlic is a must, and Yummy Red has a real kick (even the medium is spicy 🥵 but so addictive).

🍗 Boneless combo was also solid—got it with a bun and turned it into a chicken sandwich 🍔 so satisfying. The tteokbokki was chewy and flavorful, and adding ramen made it even better.

They also have other Korean dishes, plus mocktails and beer. Definitely a great late-night spot 🔥“

“Nice soup 🍜 delicious .....“

“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“

“Great experience Daniel, Brian, and Jeslyn were all extremely nice, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visit. The food and drinks were great, but the tangerine drink was so good that we ended up ordering 4 of them. Definitely coming back again!“

“The atmosphere was great, perfect for hanging out with a few friends for some drinks in the evening. We ordered army stew and egg casserole, both of which were delicious. My favorite was their chicken feet; they were spicy but incredibly tasty.“

“My friends and I had an incredible experience at Adam’s Chicken & Pocha! The chicken is truly special—it's incredibly tender and easily falls off the bone. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere is even better in person than it looks in photos. It has such a great vibe for a night out and also for a family dinner. Highly recommended!“

“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. :)“

“The spicy cold noodles with warm, cooked bulgogi is perfect refreshment for the summer time! The spiciness isn’t too noticeable, so there’s no real heat, only perfectly cool refreshing broth. The broth came on the side in a separate bowl and the spicy sauce was not mixed into the noodles, had to mix it myself but that’s okay.

The server cut the noodles up for me upon request. I also requested no eggs because I have an egg allergy and they accommodated accordingly!

The banchan / sides are really good as well. The kimchi is fermented well!

I just stopped in because I saw the cold noodle signs and it was a hot day.

I think this place used to be Witch Toppoki?“

“If you are ever in the mood for all you can eat Korean bbq where the staff cooks everything for you, then this is the place to go. The cuts of meats are delicious, the sides are a plus. I highly recommend the crab soup, corn cheese, and the popcorn chicken to go alongside your meats. The salad dressing is to die for, so make sure to try the salad as well. Overall it is a great place to go to and enjoy a meal with family and friends.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Great food. Large portions!“

“Hands down, this place is awesome. I can't tell if it’s a hole-in-the-wall spot or not, but the menu is stacked with delicious Korean stews and soups. The restaurant is semi-small, but even during lunch we were seated right away. I ordered the blood sausage soup and the seafood pancake—everything tasted like something your grandma would cook. Even the side dishes were fire. The service was amazing, too. I definitely need to stop by again before I leave!“

“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.“

“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“

“a hidden gem that only really locals knows about, Daori BBQ place has the most insane lunch special spread, especially for this price (i paid ~$13). every time i’ve been, they’re especially busy around 12pm-1pm. they’re known for their bbq duck.

the deulkkae jang kalguksu (which is dinner sized) was so insanely hearty and filling. i barely made a dent in my barley rice, but i always enjoy eating that with my banchan. i had enough leftovers to have as dinner for tonight and lunch for tomorrow! i can’t recommend this place enough honestly.“

“Great food full of authentic Korean flavors. Very artistic interior with innovative decorations add to the experience.“

“If you’re looking for comfort food with bold flavors, this spot really hits. From rich, savory broths to crispy, juicy chicken and refreshing drinks to balance it all out Modoo has it all! Perfect for a cozy meal or a casual night out with friends. Definitely adding this to the regular rotation.

“Definitely coming back with family 🥰“

“Food is absolute best. I hate sweet and salty American food nor most of Korean food served in US. But their food is properly seasoned, and tastes great. Portion is ample, and you can eat to your hearts content.
I also feel very welcomed here.“

“Came here for dinner with my mom and left completely satisfied. I had the spicy seafood kalguksu (mild spicy) — the broth was clean, deeply savory, and the hand-cut noodles had the perfect chew. My mom got the spicy seafood sujebi (regular spicy) and couldn't stop talking about how good it was. The seafood was fresh and the portion was generous.
The atmosphere is warm and the service is genuine — you can tell this place is run with real care. If you're looking for authentic Korean noodle soup in the area, Daesung Korean Noodle is the real deal. Highly recommend for anyone craving handmade kalguksu or sujebi done right.“

“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!“

“I stopped by this store to pick up lunch and was impressed by how clean it is. The owner was incredibly kind and friendly and even recommended some of his childhood favorite snacks. We had a really nice conversation.

All the takeout food is house-made, with a great variety of banchan (side dishes) and authentic snacks. I tried a unique banchan with jellyfish, papaya, turnip, and carrots—it was refreshing and perfectly crunchy. I also had pancakes, pork dumplings, and chicken over rice, all of which were delicious. The chicken rice bowl was served warm, which I really appreciated. I’ll definitely be back to try more items.“

“NO BATHROOM!!!
The food is great we love coming here regularly. The host is always cold towards us, she’s much more polite towards other Koreans, could be a language barrier. The Resturant is always cold temperature wise, wear your jacket.“

“Been coming here since I was a kid. Authentic korean restaurant with all the dishes you can think of and bbq if you like. The only thing that was a letdown was their rule when ordering bbq. Minimum is two orders of meat. I never knew about this rule because we usually go with larger groups and order a lot. It was only me and my girl this time and we both wanted our own main dish with a little bbq meat but unfortunately had to go without the bbq this time.

No fuss. We ordered a seafood pancake for appetizer and seafood soon dooboo and dolsot bibimbap for our main dishes. Came out to about $60 before tip so very affordable as always.

Place used to be 24 hours but I see they've cut their hours to midnight. Anyways. Always a good place to go for a guaranteed good time. Come early or book a reservation otherwise there will be a wait. During peak times on the weekends, you might be waiting awhile.

They coned off two metered spots for customers so it was nice to pull up and park right in front.“

“Food was very good! Portions were bigger than expected. The dumplings had thin wrappers and a crispy crunch. I very much enjoyed them. The Bimbimbap was flavorful. The Burger Steaks were a bit sweet which was unexpected, but yummy. The cold pasta salad was very refreshing, slightly sweet and had a good balance of all the flavors and veggies. I'm not a fan of cold macaroni salad, but this one was so tasty. The fish cake had a nice soy sauce brine. I have never had a fish cake with that depth of flavor in it. The kimchi had a good crunch. All of the foods balanced each other out and I left with a satisfied palate.

The restaurant plays soft music and it felt very much relaxing. Service was very good. They were very kind and had great smiles. They were very sweet. Made me feel welcomed. I'd come back here and try more foods!“

“The staff and the food was amazing! My family and I went to celebrate my birthday. The host Mia and Elena was delightful and our server Minerva was gracious and accommodating. The manager Michael then gave us the birthday special which was the song and celebration along with a comped meal for me (with ID). Amazing!“

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

“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 ~!!!!“

“We were the only customers. Service was top notch. The waitress spoke Korean and Mandarín. We ordered eel and short rib on bbq and a hot stone pot bibimbap. There was so much food. There we’re 8-10 banchan dishes. Then they brought out a veggie pancake, eggplant dish, steamed egg and soup. It was DELICIOUS 맛있는! See you soon!“

“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!“

“Very traditional hole in the wall restaurant service only one thing so you know they've perfected it because the whole business is hanging on that dish, beef rice soup. It is served with some side dishes, an omelette to make it more filling and the kkakdugi kimchi to refresh your mouth. It's an experience.“

“Meats are great but they have hands down the best Nengmyun. I crave this every summer and literally come eat this every chance I get because they dont deliver. Its that serious. They cook on cystal pan which is quite different than other places and the atmosphere is mediocre but if you know what youre going there for in regards to food then 10/10.“

“Wow! I woke up early and felt like trying something different. Ordered this spicy squid tteokbokki and it was amazing. Spicy 5/10 and nutty flavor. The squid was very fresh.

First time here, I’ll definitely be back with the family.“

“Ive only been here once, but I loved it so much! It seems more like family or group restaurant than one for just dining alone, but I greatly enjoyed the kimchi tasting they had. It was very good for just $10, with unlimited rice and noodles. The staff was very friendly, and the service was wonderful. I will be coming back soon!“

“My opinion is 8.7/10. Overall good time. Bonchon hit right, over 5 choices. Meat was tender and flavorful. Well priced at $45 for galbi and sides. The service was selective but the person serving me up the galbi was great. Check out my in depth video reviews on any of the platforms below.

“the place is cute and gives a very homey vibe but the server is a lil slow and not very attentive.

i enjoyed the spicy rose rice cakes and the tofu spicy pork with kimchi. they were delicious. i will say the kimchi stew was not it. it was soo salty and lacking flavor. not sure if it was an off day or just not good but it was not edible at all. we did not attempt to finish it after trying a sip. i would come back for the rice cakes and give the udon a try because they sound delicious.“

“We loved their dakgalbi! It was my first time having it in three years since living in Korea - and it was exactly how I remembered it. The woman who served us (maybe the owner) was super friendly and helpful. We will definitely be coming back 🤩“

“Came here over the holidays with my family and it was pleasant surprise. I tried many Korean barbecue spots, but this one was fantastic especially if you get the sirloin. I would highly recommend the duck as well.

Service is fantastic.
They do a great job cooking it for you on the table.

We’ll be back again next year“

“I would pick this place as #1 kimbab restaurant in town! The owner was really friendly and welcoming ☺️ Foods were really tasty and kimbabs have lots of fillings and meats. I can taste that ingredients are fresh and clean. I would definitely go again!“

“I’m a fan of the food and the ambiance of the place“

“Came here for lunch and had a great experience. The seafood pancake and beef bone soup were both delicious. The server was very friendly and attentive. The prices are fair, and the portions are generous. The restaurant was quite busy during lunch, but we didn’t have to wait on a weekday. Will definitely come back again!“

“I wasn’t a big fan of pork belly before I found this restaurant. I highly recommend to try their pork belly. So good, so good, I LOVE IT!!!!!!
Every time we went there, we ordered at least four plates of pork belly, I never get tired of their pork belly. Kimchi is great too! The fired rice , the way the mixed the ingredients is so perfect to eat as the last meal of that moment. Also, the way the set up their grill pan makes me feel like they are taking me back to retro korean bbq spot in Kdrama.“
