50 Best Korean Restaurants near York

“Delicious juicy chicken great taste best chicken on Eglinton 10/10“

“I ordered sushi off Uber Eats. It was very fresh. I enjoyed everything,. It was nice that the restaurant could also accommodate gluten allergies. I was able to have a roll with crab because they offered real crab in some of the rolls, not just imitation crab. I would recommend this place!“

“A neighbourhood triple threat...quality, quantity and price! This was highly recommended to me and it was all true. Combos were very tasty and more than enough for one person. Their family platter was absolutely massive for the price you pay. Very friendly and quick service. This will definitely be a regular stop from now on.“

“great food and cocktails- love the sangria! cozy ambience!“

“Loved it! Huge portions, fast and friendly service. 100% would recommend!“

“What a wonderful dining experience. I had the seafood ramen. The bowl was huge, the broth exquisite and the noodles springy and delicious. Our servers made the dining even better! They were both gracious and capable. I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“we got the cream shrimp, tangsuyuk, jjamppong, white jjamppong, and jjajjangmyeon! i especially loved the jjajjangmyeon and cream shrimp, the flavours were just like the ones in korea. i really love the smokey taste of the jjamppong and it also has tons of seafood. despite it being really affordable they definitely didn’t slack on the food quality and quantity!“

“Diner Seoul is a perfect place for those who enjoy Korean cuisine, but would like to try another take at it. You can tell that the chef tries different ideas and creates their version of the familiar dishes, and I think that deserves many stars for a city like Toronto where there aren't too many innovators. I'm hoping that they have interesting dishes for different seasons, for I'd like to see what ideas that the chef has.

The restaurant itself is a cute, small and cozy space with about 24 seats available. I visited with about 16 people and had a great time ?

I highly recommend this place for dates, the atmosphere is perfect for couples who would like to dine with a comforting vibe, interesting yet not-so-strange dishes and kind services.

Looking forward to visiting you again!“

“The environment is good, the food is good, and the service is fast and nice“

“Such a cute Korean bbq spot! From the moment I walked in, service was on top of it with wait times and moving ready customers into a seat. Waiters do a great job explaining the process for new customers to the experience. Will definitely be coming back!“

“Amazing Korean food! Wonderful customer service! Very friendly.“

“This was my first experience trying Naegmyeon through the Naengmyeon + Galbi combo. These two go together perfectly, the salty, flavorful Galbi with the refreshing Naengmyeon. The food was a grey price and would recommend to anyone in the area“

“Restaurant Review: A Must-Try for Korean Fried Chicken Lovers

I recently visited this Korean restaurant in Toronto, and it was fantastic! Their fried chicken is hands down some of the best I’ve ever had—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with just the right amount of seasoning. The variety of sauces, especially the soy garlic is incredible.

What truly stood out was the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff greeted me with big smiles and were super attentive, making me feel right at home. If you’re craving delicious Korean fried chicken and great service, this is the spot to visit!“

“Today we went to Seoul pocha 72. We ordered a spicy cheesy katsu, the honeycomb pork belly, and the bubae jigae. The spicy cheesy katsu was spicy, crispy and full of cheese. The honeycomb pork belly was super tasty and savoury. The bubae jigae was pretty cool with many ingredients like tofu, sausage and noodles. Overall great food and experience.“

“"I recently visited The Fry, and I have to say, it's hands down the best fried chicken I've ever had! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The chicken itself was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside – you can tell it’s made with the freshest ingredients. The seasoning was spot on, giving the perfect balance of flavor without being too overpowering. I also tried their sides – the mashed potatoes were creamy, and the coleslaw was the perfect complement. Every bite was a delight! If you're craving top-quality fried chicken, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!"“

“I always come here for their deep fried chicken 🍗 So delicious in original and crazy good in their red sweet and spicy sauce (yangnyeom chicken). I love it!!!! It's so addictive and it's even better when there is a daily special or a deal happening (which is quite often) 😍😍😍 I like to get half and half and boneless.“

“The portions are large, so you can enjoy and share them with friends. Even though it’s fried, I was able to eat quite a bit. It’s crispy, and the meat is juicy. The radish side dish is a great palate cleanser!

It would be nice if there were rice as a side dish. Haha.“

“A message from a Taiwanese customer ❤️
Highly recommended 👍! This authentic Korean restaurant is near the gallery.

The staff and chefs are Korean, very friendly, and they thoughtfully check if the food suits your taste during the meal.

The restaurant has Wi-Fi, restrooms, and accepts both cash and credit cards (cash is preferred 👍).

I ordered pork with bones, and the portion was much bigger than I expected! When it came, it looked like a small mountain 🤣. It was almost too much for one person to finish, but it was super tasty and satisfying.

Even though I’ve had similar dishes in Korea, I feel like this place tastes even better!“

“Staff was very friendly, food was fresh and delicious and very filling. Compared to Egg Club it was more crispy / well toasted, and since this had corn in the egg mixture, it was a
bit sweeter in flavour. I had the double cheese bacon toast and it was not lacking in either component. Bacon was crisp, cheese was ample and well melted

I'm not saying one is better than the other since they're both delicious egg in bread establishments. Just an observation.

Will be back to try more of the menu“

“We had the spicy pork bulgogi on a sizzling platter and seafood noodle soup and we are stuffffffffed. Also hot take but the california rolls are weirdly good. Cozy place too with a cute front room. Our server was very friendly and kind too. :)“

“This place has been our go-to Korean restaurant for over a year now — we eat here every single week, sometimes even twice. The food is consistently delicious with rich, bold flavors and high-quality ingredients. It never disappoints.

Our must-order dishes every time? The stir-fried squid and pork, and the pork bone soup — absolutely packed with flavor. But honestly, every single dish we’ve tried has been amazing.

We’ve brought so many friends here, and without fail, they all end up becoming regulars too. The vibe is super relaxed and comfortable — perfect for family meals or casual dinners with friends.

ONNURI is a true hidden gem. It deserves way more attention and should be way busier than it is. If you love Korean food, don’t sleep on this place. Support local — and eat well!“

“One of the best korean traditional and fusion food. Proud to be korean ♡♡ 꺅 <3“

“Out of this world. Probably the best Korean food I've ever had. Korean restaurants in Koreatown can be a bit hit and miss and Damda is definitely a hit. Delicious dumplings and an amazing seafood pancake. Huge portions and amazing flavours. A real home run. Highly recommended.“

“It’s better then KFC Cheese stick OMG🤤best I’ve ever had The spicy 🌶️ pastas ou 😋 So I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“맛있다 , 다음 번에 다시 돌아 볼 수 있습니다.“

“crispy chicken could eat it all day long every day“

“Great food, service, and atmosphere.“

“Cute little Korean restaurant with really kind service. Fried tofu bibimbap was delicious, filling, and really well priced. Really appreciated that the server offered me tea to go to stay warm on a snowy night.

Vegetarian options: Veggie and vegan options marked on the menu“

“Meats sliced cleanly off the bone and sliced to perfect bite size! Got our jokbal cravings down with just right size. Highly recommend the combo menu for 2.

Parking: Parking right beside a court or free if you buy something from whole food.“

“I visited on a Saturday and it was the best Korean food I had in Toronto! It was better than what I had in Korea!! I think I will visit next time I want to eat Korean food again.

I visited on Saturday, It was the best Korean food I had in Toronto. It was more delicious than what I had in Korea! I think I will visit again when I want to eat Korean food“

“Kagayum is a great place in North York to eat and drink. It’s open late so if you’re looking for late night eat and drinks, this is the place to be!

Food is pretty good and everything on their menu is HALAL! That’s a really big pro that you don’t see in many restaurants.“

“My best friend and I discovered a hidden gem in downtown Toronto on June 2nd, an incredibly charming Korean restaurant that exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, Mr. Dongjun (DJ) welcomed us with warmth and a genuine smile, making us feel truly at home. The service was impeccable, the food was simply exceptional, and the hospitality was beyond amazing.
I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. With top-notch service, exquisite cuisine, and an atmosphere filled with kindness, it’s a place worth visiting again and again. I’ll certainly be returning to explore more of their menu. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience!“

“Really enjoyed the food here. We popped in because we were trying to find a Korean restaurant in the area that was open a bit later. We found this place and really enjoyed their pork bone soup with noodles! The pankcakes had a bit more green onions than we'd like, but we overall enjoyed the food and would come back. I saw they have another location closer to Scarborough, so hopefully that location will have food that's just as good.“

“I heard about this new place from a friend and had to give it a try. When I parked where Google Maps directed me, I wasn't sure if I was in the right spot ---- it's at the back of an industrial building, near some truck unloading docks.
But then I saw a sign saying "Please come in" and decided to take a leap of faith. I wasn't disappointed!
* Fried Chicken Sandwich - $7.77: I chose the honeyed soy garlic flavour. The egg brioche bun was perfectly soft and flavourful, and I appreciated how the pressed crust held everything together. The toppings were generous, and the chicken was juicy.
* Fried Chicken Poutine - $8.88 (250g, snack size): I went with the "cheezy cheese" option, and it was indeed very cheesy! They didn't skimp on the seasoning, and the poutine cheese curds had a great pull. Loved it!
* Boneless Fried Chicken - $9.99 (250g, snack size): I chose the spicy yangnyeom sauce, which had a nice kick.
Just a small note -- I'd prefer if the boneless chicken pieces were about half the size, especially as a poutine topping.
The prices are fair, and the flavours are absolutely delicious. Piping hot fried chicken takes time, so there is a slight wait, which I did not mind at all.
I'll definitely be coming back here!“

“One of my go-to Korean restaurants! As a Korean native, I can say their food is truly authentic and reasonably priced. Located in a food court, it's more focused on takeout.
With gimbap and kimchi fried rice to-go, you can really feel the cozy Korean picnic vibes.
I've been a regular for over two years and have tried almost everything on the menu. Honestly, it's hard to pick favorites because everything is so good. But I do want to mention that their bibimbap tastes just like the authentic homemade style - simple, not overly decorated, and deeply nostalgic.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quick, tasty, and comforting Korean meal!“

“Genuinely, this is probably the best place to get Korean food in Toronto and one of the best restaurants in Toronto (I feel strongly!). The food tastes like REAL food and I truly believe I could eat it every day and feel great. The owner is so sweet and always remembers us and gives us new things to try. The best....simply the best! Thank you thank you!“

“The best korean fried chicken I've ever had. 🤤“

“Love this place! The tteokbokki is our favorite! Affordable and plentyy! We’ve going back for it over and over again for the past year and a half. The portion is so big, and despite me eating a lottt in general, this one fills me up easily. Service can be a little slow at times but they do get really busy there so I get it. Also, the unlimited side dishes are greattt too! I love the pickled radish and the glass noodles!“

“It’s yummy, good service, clean and place is better than old place“

“This hotel food quality is very good“

“So tasty, and the drinks are so good, strong, and delicious. Great staff who are friendly and make you feel at home!“

“The service is great! The tea is delicious, and free! I highly recommend the cheese dakgalbi, along with fried rice to mix into the leftover sauce near the end of the meal.“

“First time here and found a right place for authentic Korean bbq with my favourite kimchi stew so yummy ! Will surely come back again even needed to queue... 😋😋😋“

“Food was awesome, service beyond great. Server came and helped me with the raw marinated crab since I was struggling to de-shell it.

Everything was delicious. Highly recommend the Jjampong stew, seafood pancake, and soy marinated crab.“

“Friendly traditional Korean restaurant. Long queue during dinner time but worth the wait.“

“I tried something new to me tonight: Curry Fries. It's a lot for a snack: a nice box of fries with a ladle of fantastic chicken curry sauce over the top. Highly recommended.“

“Take out only and cash/etransfer only. I love this place! Great spot for a quick lunch. The lady packs the box to the rim and the food is very homey and tasty.

The fried chicken on Wednesdays is really good. Highly recommend this place.“

“On a reco from someone from Korea and who can make gimbap herself, I ventured out to find this recommended gimbap place after finding about the Korean dish from a TV show. I gotta say that I was impressed by the size of the roll and the quality for the price. Two rolls is a lot of food. One is enough; two is maybe gluttonous.

Telling the front staff that this was my first time there, she recommended the Kimchi Tuna Gimbap and then the Bulgogi Gimbap. The rolls were well-presented and were indeed delicious. Based on the quickly forming line-up for a weekday lunch, this place is clearly a favourite in the neighbourhood.“

“Tasty food. Small meat serving on the spicy beef tongue. The kimchi soup was fantastic. The 4% makgeoli comes in many flavours and tastes fantastic. Only item I wasn't crazy about was the cheese seasoned fried chicken. Note a lot of items are a bit pricy, but I had a great time.

Service was friendly, enthusiastic, while not intrusive (glad there weren't upsells).

High energy environment, has booth seats for moderate privacy, and the lighting is easy on the eyes.“

“It was my first time here, and I really liked it. There were delicious things on the menu and the menu was not too big to cause decision fatigue.
I opted for the tteokbokki, as it is one of my favorite Korean dishes. It was the best so far that I have found in Toronto. The spiciness level was perfect for me, the dish was rich with a balanced ingredients, like rice cakes, fish cakes, vegetables and the sauce was really flavorful.
The portion size was also really good. I will definitely come back here to try other dishes.“
