5 Best Korean Restaurants in Chattanooga

“Zaya Korean Steakhouse in Chattanooga is hands down one of the best dining experiences we’ve had! We went for the Wagyu steak feast and it was absolutely incredible—perfectly cooked, melt-in-your-mouth flavor, and beautifully presented. The ambience here is just next level—modern, stylish, and still very warm and welcoming. It feels like the kind of place that’s perfect for a date night, special occasion, or just treating yourself. Our server, Carson, was phenomenal. Friendly, attentive, and really knew the menu well—he made great suggestions and made sure everything was perfect the whole evening. We also loved all the sides and the way everything is served—it’s such a fun and interactive dining experience. The drinks were also top-notch and paired so well with the meal. If you’re in Chattanooga and looking for an unforgettable dinner, Zaya is a must. We’ll definitely be back!“

“We became acquainted with Pho while visiting our daughter in the Pacific Northwest. My husband was wanting some for his birthday so we drove down from Athens TN. He had the beef and tripe pho, and I had the beef vermicelli and both were wonderful! The crispy spring rolls were outstanding!“

“Wish I had photos but I didn't plan to do a review. After my meal, I just have to do it. Very authentic Korean food that is just delicious. I had the Bibimbap, my husband had the squid (forget the name). All the sides were fabulous. Everything tasted fresh. Clean restaurant. Sweetest lady working. From the reviews I don't believe some people understand cultural differences. If you're a fan of Korean cuisine give it a try!!“

“We went for the first time on Wed night. Everything was AMAZING!! I checked out their menu before we got there so I could get an idea of what I wanted to order. I was surprised when we got there to see they have daily drink specials. Wine night, Yay!! I ended up ordering the bulgogi. It was so flavorful and you get such a big portion I ate it again the next day. Service was speedy and friendly. Atmosphere was nice. We sat outside and it was very cozy. The drinks and food were perfect. We can't wait to go back. 10/10“
