28 Best Korean Restaurants near Tualatin

“Me and my family have been coming here for the past 18 years! This family owned restaurant has the most kind owners who work everyday they are open, generous portions, amazing flavors and best prices in all of Portland metro area! Our families drive from Salem and Vancouver to come here whenever we’re craving teriyaki!“

“Call ahead and get your grind on at home. Please support your favorite Mama 😉“

“Ordered takeout, grilled bulgogi plate was delicious. Full disclaimer: i used a gift card, which took $15 off the price.. so part of my pleasure is in getting a huge discount AND Grubhub was offering a “7 free potstickers with purchase of Bulgogi plate”. If I’d spent $22 on just the bulgogi plate I’m not sure I would be as pleased or be writing this review… but as it was, my particular situation and price? Superb! Did come with a side salad.. decent portion of bulgogi … but like I said I paid seven bucks“

“From our nine year old: Amazing service and great mocktails! We went during the make your own Gimbap and it was absolutely amazing!!“

“Fire. Best fried chicken drum we’ve ever had. We agreed the snow sauce should be called crack dust. French fries were good but just good French fries at end of day. But the chicken; The chicken drums are phenomenal. Thank you for a wonderful food eating experience.“

“Wow Cow is more than just a place to get amazing food. It’s a place where the owner knows you by name, and cares about your order and experience. This is our happy place we walk miles to get to. They are seriously the very best of the best!! 😎“

“Whenever I travel, I always look for the top rated Korean restaurants that aren’t all-you-can-eat bbq. We enjoyed Han Oak so much that we decided to try the sister restaurant, Jeju, and loved it equally. The set menu has similar side dishes and exquisite house-made ssamjang, plus delicious meats, veggies, and lettuce for making ssambap. We ate until we could eat no more and then we ate some more! It was an unforgettable meal.“

“Just had the Bulgogi with pot stickers and a side of kimchi. Amazingly delicious! I would highly recommend Korean twist. I will be back.“

“Jin Dak is the best Korean in PDX. The bibimbap is absolutely exceptional. Healthy portion, quality ingredients. The kimchi fries are a fun unique side. I’m obsessed with this food cart and hope it stays around forever! 10/10 could not recommend this place enough.

Vegetarian options: Tofu bibimbap is rocking“

“Easily one of the very best Korean restaurants in the greater Portland area. Superb, generous, tasty banchan. Fabulous Korean pancakes-always order the kimchj and green onion cakes! Scrumtuous! Great classic Korean dishes, super-tasty marinated beef salade. Whole menu is worth careful investigation. So go already!“

“A great casual Korean spot with good prices, portions, and flavors. Even though the restaurant name is Mokdong Gimbap, we tried two main dishes: pork cutlet and seafood soon-tofu. I’ve been craving the style of pork cutlet I used to have in Korea, and it was exactly what we were hoping for—so good! While we were enjoying that, the seafood soon-tofu came out, and it was perfectly seasoned, not bland or off at all. We got the medium spice level, which had a nice kick—perfect if you like real Korean spiciness. The seafood in the soon-tofu was fresh and plenty, and the side dishes were authentic and tasted homemade. The owner was super friendly, which made the whole experience even better. Next time, I’ll definitely try their Gimbap!“

“First time here tonight for my mom’s birthday/ this place is so good, we are going to make it our go to place for Korean bbq from now on! First reason we love this place is because we finally found a Korean bbq place that’s not all you can eat! We have small children and elderly parents who don’t eat a lot- so it’s a huge plus. Second one is this place feels super new and clean , even the bathrooms were clean and smell good. Last but not least, staff were super friendly - everyone who served us was really nice and kind. Their side dishes were really generous and they offered to replenish more than once. Price was more than reasonable. Yes we are definitely coming back!“

“Love this fusion Korean food!“

“We can’t wait to go back and try more. I almost didn’t even want to write this review because I want this place to remain a hidden gem but it’s too good not to spread the word.

Hidden upstairs in a Korean grocery store, the food was authentic and the atmosphere too. We arrived at 8:10pm on a Friday and the lady made an exception for us as the kitchen closed at 8, although the restaurant stays open till 9. We recommend coming before then.

We tried the bulgogi, the chicken bulgogi, and a kimchi pancake without the pork. Before the food came out, they brought us banchan which we devoured. It was a collection of kimchi, fish cakes, potatoes in sweet soy sauce, pickles radishes, pickles, and broccoli. The kimchi was so good that we asked for more. We couldn’t stop eating everything when it arrived—definitely come here super hungry.

The chicken had a very smokey flavor to it, just a bit of a heads up. I wasn’t expecting that and although it was delicious, it’s not a taste I’m very used to.

We can’t wait to come back and try more. Plus the grocery store had some fascinating items that we want to check out, too.

Also, the sweetest older women were waiting on our tables and ran the house. They were very kind and diligent.“

“it is in the heart of downtown a couple blocks from Powell Books in the beginning of the park block the most important it is clean and it's a good diversity of food cart they even have a double decker bus that serve coffee in the morning and beer and wine in the evening plenty of seating outside looking at the park block.“

“Fantastic food. EVERYTHING is great including the service. The Thai iced tea is amazing“

“The shop is small but the food is amazing! Best tteokbokki I've had hands down and their bugolgi is to die for! (pics are of the half eaten dishes, they looked prettier before we dug in lol) The staff is also very friendly and helpful. 10/10“

“Delicious food ever love the honey spice sauce“

“The service was amazing! Huge shoutout to the woman working today at 1pm. She was so sweet and was able to balance everything very well. The food was great too! Good portions for a good price. This was my first time. I will definitely come back.“

“I don’t know how much I can express every time my family and I come to this establishment, our time and Service have been met greatly. Mostly from our favorite host Tina! I always make sure we get her, even if we have to wait. Highly recommend!!!“

“Like the other reviews state, this place can be a little hard to find. It’s part of Niki’s Cafe in an office building. They make sandwiches as well as kimbap and bibimbap, and they have drinks, snacks, and pastries too. Absolutely delicious, I will definitely be back!“

“Great service and delicious food!“

“The food is delicious. We had the salmon bento and the short rib bento and both were delicious. The bento consists of two battered fry shrimp, two dumplings, salad, rice and the main course. The restaurant is in a strip mall and there’s not a lot of ambiance for dining in, but it’s pretty obvious the money is going to food quality. There were quite a few customers there when we ordered, and so we asked if we could come back in 15 - 20 minutes and had a pint at Peppermill Pub in the meantime. Kings is the healthy option to the various fast food around it. It looked as if there were only two people running the place, the cashier and the cook. Kudos to them for doing a stellar job.“

“The best Korean food I've had in the Beaverton area. I've tried many and this place is far superior to all of them. The banchan were super flavorful and every dish we ordered was enjoyed by the whole table. Highly recommend the spicy marinated crab and the kimchi stew. The server is also extremely friendly and helpful, she really contributed to our lovely experience“

“Strip mall location with fast service, tasty Chinese/Korean, 10 dishes with pork chicken tofu variations. Recommend sweet and sour pork, stir fried Jajagmyeon, or beef jjamppong. Beef soup or noodles.

About 12 tables, 50 seats, can easily handle a group of eight, more I would call in advance. They can get busy, but they are fast and there seemed to be enough tables as people wait for to go orders.

Right next to Washington square, easy access on and off highway 217. Medium parking lot that seemed busy but sufficient.

Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessible for wheelchair“

“Food is amazing! I got 3 tacos - spicy pork, bulgogi beef, and teriyaki chicken. All were delicious, but the spicy pork and bulgogi beef were my favorites. Would definitely recommend and stop here again when visiting Portland!“

“Great mix of flavors. I like getting well priced meals that are both satisfying and somewhat healthy. The meats and vegetables always taste fresh, and the service is good. For my money, Koi Fusion is the best thing that has happened yet for the Wilsonville restaurant scene. We need some more innovators like Bo Kwon around here.“

“Absolutely loved this place. We recommend the hotdogs, chicken bulgogi (has some rice cakes), and soy garlic fried chicken. The customer service is excellent and let us use the restroom after closing. Great customer service, great food, and loved the vibes. Highly recommended for everyone“
