8 Best Korean Restaurants near St. Catharines

“I've never had Korean BBQ before so this was a great experience for me. The food was served fast and hot. The service was very friendly and helpful because we had a lot of questions!! I would definitely recommend and go back for seconds.“

“I love this place with all of my heart; it is one of my favourite resturants in the entire world; I looked forward to going to school all year because I knew I'd be able to come here for lunch. There are only a few items on the menu I haven't gotten yet.

My girlfriend doesn't even go to Brock and multiple times we planned our day around coming here for lunch and even celebrate me finishing my school year by coming here.

Portion sizes are great, prices are great, good is great, staff are great. Please support this spot to assure it stays open.“

“Good was amazing, attention as well. Everything was super tasty. They mentioned they finished winterizing so the patio can be used through the year, which is another plus. We forgot something and they called us to let us know they were putting it apart until we can come pick it up.“

“Shout out to the staff they were amazing.

Okay guys, seriously — got another banger for you right here. As soon as we sat down at Duru, they hit us with free barley tea, and let me tell you, it was brewed perfectly — super aromatic and so relaxing on the stomach.

Then boom — complimentary Tteokkochi (sweet and spicy rice skewers) on the house. Never had it before, but it was delicious — chewy, sweet, spicy, just fire.

I ordered the salmon bento which came with a refreshing miso soup, pickled daikon, and some flavorful kimchi. The salmon was super tender with a sweet teriyaki glaze, and the rice? Fluffy with sesame seeds on top that gave it a nice nutty touch. It also came with two hamburger gyoza — not bad, but I’m more of a soft pork gyoza type. The side salad was beautifully plated and super light, perfect palate cleanser.

My wife ordered the bibimbap — a massive rice bowl loaded with egg, daikon, carrots, bean sprouts, cucumber, and ground beef. Huge portion and packed with flavor. Like, OMG 😱 big.

Gotta give it up to this place. If you're craving real-deal Korean-Japanese fusion, Duru is the move. 5 stars all day.“

“Authentic korean food. Good service. will be back again.“

“Cannot recommend this restaurant enough! If you’re looking for an amazing culinary experience, this is it!
I would recommend seating out side (weather permitting). Great service, amazing food (my favourite was the sausage- looking dish in the picture, it’s actually delicious mushroom macaroni!!), a little more expensive but 100% worth the experience!“

“We were hungry after visiting Niagara Falls and found Rok’s as we drove by. We had the Yang nyum and the Kal Bi fried chicken meals, they came with fries and radishes. I can’t even put into words how tasty both flavors were, everyone enjoyed it. I even dreamt about it for a few days afterwards, it was that good. I live in Maryland and I’m thinking about driving back to Canada just for this chicken!! Come to the US please.“

“Greatly enjoyed our evening. Interesting selection of cocktails; broad selection of charcuterie and excellent service all in a beautiful clean setting. Fabulous atmosphere. Well done! Looking forward to my next visit.“
