8 Best Korean Restaurants in Murfreesboro

“Discovered this place in college years ago and try to always visit when I’m in town. Excellent food and very friendly employees who look like they enjoy what they are doing. Being there is definitely a cultural experience with the Korean TV and music playing along with instructions on the proper way to enjoy the food. Everyone needs to try it!“

“We ate there for first time today and everything about the experience was incredible. The food the service and the friendliness! We will definitely go again!“

“Korean is my favorite cuisine so I'm delighted to have found this restaurant. It has a comfortable ambiance, very clean and open. I had lunch there. I had been seated and given a menu. The website stated they had lunch specials which didn't appear on the menu. I asked about it and the server retrieved the lunch menu which had a number of choices priced at $10.99 each. I had the Soft Tofu soup and chose seafood as my protein. While waiting for my entree they brought to me 4 delicious ban chan dishes - broccoli lightly seasoned with sesame, kim chi, a delicious warm potato dish, and a macaroni salad. There were very generous portions of each. When my entre arrived - a bowl of rice and boiling hot soup I cracked an egg into it so it could cook while I enjoyed the rice and side dishes. I often order this dish at other Korean restaurants, and this was the most flavorful soup I've had, with plenty of tofu and some seafood. There was so much food I had to take some home and had it for dinner. I felt it was a bargain to have 2 meals for $10.99. The menu showed that the restaurant also offers tables with grills so you can have that experience, but it requires minimum of 2 diners, and not part of the lunch menu. I will be returning to the restaurant for lunch and may try the grill option when I'm not dining solo. I recommend this place.“

“Our meal and service were exceptional. Our server, Peyton, was delightful and we really enjoyed her attention to our needs and would highly recommend Peyton to everyone. The Steak Tips were delicious. Others at my table had Salmon and the Ribeye - again, nothing but raves. We are traveling from Ohio to Murfreesboro and met relatives in the area and Primrose was their favorite as well and I can fully appreciate the recommendation. Thanks again to Peyton who took care of a problem with my drink order and made it a perfect evening!“

“Absolutely loved our experience at KPOT in Murfreesboro. This was our first time visiting and we were honestly blown away from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, everything exceeded our expectations. The food was outstanding — fresh, high quality, and full of flavor — and the variety was incredible. Having an all-you-can-eat option made it even better because we were able to try so many different meats, sides, broths, and sauces without feeling rushed or limited. Every single thing we tried was delicious. The overall experience was easily a 10/10. The atmosphere was fun, lively, and perfect for a night out, whether you’re with family, friends, or on a date. The staff was amazing — friendly, attentive, and very patient with us since it was our first time. They took the time to explain how everything worked, checked on us often, and made sure we had everything we needed. That level of service really made the night even better. Honestly, this place puts The Melting Pot to shame. Not only is the quality just as good — if not better — but the all-you-can-eat option and huge selection make it a much better value and a lot more fun. You get more variety, more food, and a more relaxed experience without sacrificing quality. We had such a great time that we’re already planning our next visit. We will absolutely be back, and I’ll be recommending KPOT to everyone I know. If you’re on the fence about trying it, don’t hesitate — this place is a must-try.“

“This place is amazing and wonderful after a long day's work no matter how difficult! The food is absolutely delicious and authentic I plan on becoming a regular going forward!! This is the best Udon I have ever had! Please place is a MUST go! I haven't had anything this authentic since I was in the military. Thank you for having me!“

“The place was clean and looked nice.

Food was good and so was the service. I got generic rolls and I got good food. Not the best I've ever had but I'd go back if I was in the mood.

Entrance leaves no room for large people or groups. Send in 1 person to get a table instead of standing inside.

Restrooms are WAY in the back so dont be afraid to keep walking. Men's was clean enough.“

“Sooo good! The Korean bbq flavored chicken strips are my fave. Had the spicy chicken fried rice bowl my first time. Was really good, but a little spicy for my liking. The street corn 👌🏼“
