12 Best Korean Restaurants in Eugene

“After Meiji’s shutdown, I thought my husband and I didn’t have a good date night place to go to. THIS PLACE IS EVEN BETTER!! We had the Bulgogi Udon and Bokkum Noodle Chicken Bulgogi w/ fried egg. The portions are HUGE, the service is spectacular, and the atmosphere is cozy. We’ll be coming here often!!! So happy. 😊❤😋“

“If you love Korean food, this is the place to go. No difficult Eugene streets, no difficult parking. Easy to find off the main road. Very clean inside. The lady who owns it is very nice. The atmosphere is peaceful and the food is clean and savory. Anytime I need good chicken cutlet over rice with delicious sauce like all the popular videos online I come here to feed that craving.“

“Wowzers. Tried their fried chicken, beef bulgogi kimbap & cucumber salad and all three were phenomenal. Found this menu to be more my style than the OG location and really dug the vibe inside. Thanks for cooking amazing food y'all!“

“Sooooo good! Small family restaurant with great food. I loved the beef bulgogi with noodles and also the mandoo.“

“Charlie & Young & their son cooked up a crazy great storm of galbi & chicken teriyaki. It tasted so good I will
Be back again to their restaurant very soon. Two thumbs up. Thank you! A true family owned business right across from U of O!“

“Very nice, food and service is fantastic! I have driven past this place for years without considering to eat here! Today I decided to give them a try! I expected a run of the mill restaurant, I was blown away at how nice this place is! Everything from the table to the restroom is very fancy and clean, and the food was just amazing! The outside look of the building is deceptive, the inside is a pleasant surprise! Will be going back often!“

“I have eaten at Kkoki Korean BBQ twice this week. Each time the staff were super friendly and attentive. First time I got the Bibimbap with beef bulgogi it was incredibly delicious, second time I brought my mom and we got the all you can eat bbq as expected everything was delicious and great quality. My mom had never had Kbbq before and was impressed with the food. I highly recomend Kkoki's to anyone who would like to try kbbq.“

“Mexican Ramen and Other Beautiful Mistakes.

I wandered into Taco Mogo expecting the usual taco-joint experience: a few tortillas, some salsa, perhaps a cold beverage to steady the nerves. Instead, I found Burris Ramen, a magnificent cultural collision that should not work under any known law of nature but somehow does. It is the culinary equivalent of strapping a mariachi band to a Japanese bullet train and pointing it directly at the horizon.

The Burris Ramen arrived steaming like a volcanic science experiment. Rich broth, deep flavor, and enough personality to start an argument at the next table. Every bite felt like Mexico and Japan had met in a dimly lit parking lot at 2 a.m., shook hands, and decided to create something glorious. It wasn’t fusion cuisine in the pretentious marketing-department sense of the term. It was delicious chaos. The kind of food that makes you stop talking for a few minutes because your brain is too busy trying to process what just happened.

Taco Mogo deserves credit for having the courage to ignore the imaginary rules. Somewhere there is a committee of culinary experts clutching their pearls over the existence of Mexican ramen. Ignore them. The Burris Ramen is outstanding, the flavors are bold without being gimmicky, and the entire experience feels like a wonderfully reckless decision that paid off spectacularly.

Trying to eat Mexican food with chopsticks felt like participating in some kind of international diplomatic experiment gone horribly right. There I was, armed with two slender sticks of bamboo, attempting to wrangle noodles, cilantro, onions, and suspiciously slippery pieces of meat that seemed determined to achieve independence. Every successful bite felt like winning a small war. Every dropped ingredient felt like a public humiliation. Somewhere between the broth and the tortillas, I realized I was eating Mexican food with Japanese utensils while sitting in Oregon, and suddenly the whole thing seemed perfectly reasonable. By the end, I was gripping those chopsticks like a veteran gambler clutching his last poker chips, chasing one more glorious mouthful of this magnificent cultural collision before reality returned and reminded me that tacos are generally not designed to be consumed with precision instruments.

Five stars for the food, five stars for the creativity, and five stars for proving that sometimes the best ideas sound completely insane right up until the first spoonful.“

“10/10 experience it was my mom and I’s first time trying Korean corndogs and it did not disappoint!!! The service was amazing too!!“

“What I miss about college in southern California is the Korean food and duck sushi reminds me of LA Korean food. It’s hard finding good Korean food in Eugene. Eugene is lucky to have this place my cravings are always satisfied after eating here. Also prices are super affordable.“
