8 Best Korean Restaurants near St. Catharines

“It’s the best place for Korean food in the city. Good, beautiful, and affordable. They welcome you with complimentary miso soup, a delicious salad, spring rolls, and a lovely tea. It’s a little corner of Korea in Canada. I love it—I go there once a month. 🇰🇷🍜✨“

“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.“

“Marty was the consummate host and both he and Jenny prepared such a grand feast for our family birthday celebration. The family is agreed, we have no idea how to go to any other Korean BBQ place after being here. There is no equal. We came from the GTA to St Catherine’s for this opportunity and it was utterly worth it, even considering the current gas prices at 176+.
I really don’t how we have coped going to other places til now.
Getting here early was a complete blessing as we got to talk at length with Marty and learn about their practices and how they achieve their perfection. He was so kind and wonderful to listen to. He was ever so gracious with grilling their ribeye, bulgogi and chicken for us to make sure we had the best quality experience.
The kimchi is the best we have ever had. The corn cheese dish is shockingly good. There isn’t anything we would change here.
I almost hate to post this review because keeping this place as a personal secret seems like the better move but far too selfish of us.
Thank you Marty and Jenny for the gift you gave for our family celebration. We truly appreciate you both and the skill with which you fulfill your dreams.
We will be back.“

“Amazing food and service!!! Everything was perfectly portioned and had amazing balance of flavors. Lots of vegetarian options, and a very good selection of dishes. Everything cane very quickly and tasted absolutely delicious. Highly recommend for any large or small group gatherings, or to just try the food yourself!“

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

“I’ve been coming to Pharmacii for many moons and can’t believe have never left a review! This is a go to for us as it is consistently the most creative, bold and exciting restaurant in my opinion in St. Catharines. The dishes are always a true explosion of flavour, imagination and quality.

I wish I could tell you what the dishes were that we had but I can’t recall the names. The pork belly was the big winner. We ordered 6 dishes to share between us and took some home. Lots of food!

We love it all - the mind blowing cocktails, ultra easy vibes and especially Sarah and Ashley the amazing staff. It’s a small place, and don’t take reservations. Promise though - if you have to wait it’s worth it.“

“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.“

“Everything we ate and drank was fabulous! Would love to be go back sometime.“
