About Kim's Restaurant

Kim's Restaurant is a beloved Korean BBQ spot in Philadelphia that is well-known for its charcoal grilling, which gives the meat a special charbroiled smokey flavor. The restaurant features a cozy, homey atmosphere where the focus is on good food and friendly service rather than fancy decor or a premium location. Visitors often recommend trying the cold noodle with mustard and vinegar, and many highlight the quality of dishes like galbi (secret menu), skirt steak, egg custard, and kimchi pancakes if they enjoy some spice. Guests have praised the food as absolutely delicious and fresh, with many side dishes available, especially noting the refreshing salad. The restaurant has been a local Korean staple for decades, appreciated for its authentic and tasty food. Since they don’t take reservations, visitors are advised to arrive early and hungry, especially on busy weekends when waits can be around 30 minutes. Parking is usually available nearby. Overall, Kim's offers a delightful and authentic Korean dining experience that many consider a must-visit for Korean BBQ lovers, with attentive staff ready to assist in cooking the meats.
