49 Best Korean Restaurants in Austin

“It was absolutely delicious“

“Delicious food, attentive staff, and cool decor. We always have a blast and a delicious meal when we go to Honey Pig. If you don’t know what to order, my recommendation is to pick a combo. The severs will cook it for you. They always give our toddler balloons weighted down with chopsticks to keep her entertained while we eat. Sometimes there’s a wait, but they will text you when your table is ready, so you can go browse H-Mart while you’re waiting. Highly recommended!!“

“Pocha is Back is one my fav go-to late night grub! The staff is very welcoming and attentive and the food is always delicious!
This was my introduction to Korean food and I’m so grateful I found this gem!
If you’re in town be sure to check this place out!!! You won’t regret it.

Keep up the great work!“

“I came here based on a high volume of recommendations/praise. Being Korean, I take my Korean food seriously. That being said, the food is solid. The overall experience is comparable to other places like Chodang Tofu House with a bit more modern decor. The Cold Arrowroot Noodle, Galbi, and Tofu Soup were all good, but not outstanding. The Arrowroot Noodle's broth was slightly lacking in flavor & depth, but still good for Austin standards. The Galbi is about what you can expect, decently good. The Tofu Soup was solid, but wished it had more protein, but the spice levels were on point.

Service was nothing out of the ordinary, not bad not outstanding. The atmosphere was nice enough & brightly lit, but perhaps a bit too open feeling due to the giant open floor plan not broken up in any way.

Value-wise, I personally would not order the Arrowroot Cold Noodle + Galbi combo, but could see myself ordering the Tofu Soup.

Overall, the hype is a little out of hand, but the food is fairly good. Try it out, but I will stick to going to Chodang Tofu House which is physically closer to me.“

“The food here is amazing! We tried the 순두부 (Soft Tofu Stew), Beef BBQ, 칼비 Kalbi, and 삐비밤 Bibimbap. The portions aren’t as huge as Texas-sized meals, but they’re definitely filling. The Beef BBQ has a slightly sweet flavor, and the Kalbi were incredibly tender. The Bibimbap was packed with fresh vegetables, making it really hearty and satisfying. The soft tofu stew was comforting and full of flavor. The service was excellent too…. when I seemed unsure about how to mix the Bibimbap, the staff kindly came over to show me how. They were super friendly and made the experience even better. I’d definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for delicious and satisfying food~“

“First time ever to Korean bbq. And this place rocked it!“

“This store is a hidden gem for anyone craving fresh, authentic, homemade Korean food. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by the enticing aroma of freshly prepared dishes and a colorful array of banchan (Korean side dishes) beautifully displayed. It’s the perfect spot to stock up on your favorite Korean staples or discover something new to try.

The variety of banchan available here is truly impressive. From kimchi and pickled radishes to savory pancakes and seasoned vegetables, they have it all. Each dish is made with care and tastes just like something you’d find at a traditional Korean family table. Among the standout items, the fish cakes are a must-try—perfectly seasoned and pan-fried to perfection. The marinated crab is another highlight, bursting with bold, umami flavors that are truly unforgettable. And, of course, the bulgogi is exceptional—tender, juicy, and marinated in a sauce that strikes the perfect balance of sweet and savory.

Beyond the individual dishes, this store also offers catering, making it an excellent choice for parties, gatherings, or events. Their quality and flavor are consistent, and the portions are generous, ensuring everyone leaves satisfied.

The staff is friendly and helpful, always ready to offer recommendations or explain the dishes for those less familiar with Korean cuisine. The store is well-organized, making it easy to browse and select your favorites.

Whether you’re a fan of Korean food or just looking to explore new flavors, this store is an absolute must-visit. The quality, variety, and authenticity make it a standout destination. Don’t leave without trying the fish cakes, marinated crab, and bulgogi—you’ll be coming back for more!“

“I am in town for an event and needed a good lunch and seen the 4 and half stars.. Pork buldogi plate was 💣 bomb.. food came out steaming hot and spicy just how I like it.. definitely a recommendation for a quick hot plate!“

“The food is good and the service was friendly! Need y’all to try out the croquettes, I originally ordered potato, but they ran out and had corn instead. IT WAS STILL GOOD and I hope for anyone lucky enough to have the potato version 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️“

“Best korean wings in the area. Great food, great service and great staff.“

“This is probably where I go “out” to eat the most. Who woulda thunk it? Korean and Mexican fusion tastes so good! This is close enough to work for me to walk there in 5 minutes. I get the bowl and fried tofu as the protein - it’s so good. Tofu takes a lot of abuse from people, but when prepared correctly, it’s very delicious. I started making it at home similar to this food truck. I’ve tried the beef and various chicken options, but always revert back to the tofu. I found the beef too salty the one time I ate it. The chicken is ok. I’ve not had the wrap/burrito, just the bowl.“

“If you want an amazing place to get some korean food and be served by the most friendly staff, go to SOHA. Great drinks, amazing food, best spot in Austin to hang out and drink and eat.“

“Levi was awesome! He had such great customer service and made the whole experience super smooth and enjoyable. He was really friendly, helpful, and made sure everything with my order was spot on. Definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had at ChilantroI’m“

“I love Chi'Lantro, but I hate that they put the hot food on plastic bags. The micro-plastics get into the food when heated, you can taste it and it leaves one feeling weird. Plus, no cash? What the heck is that about, the pandemic is over. Look, stop putting heated food on thin plastic and I'll become a frequent customer again. Thanks!“

“I've been wanting to try this place out. The pics look so appetizing! I enjoyed my meal but I'm not sure it's anything to rave about. I went with my sister and she got the Jopok All Ramen and I got the Topokki Rapokki and we shared some kimbap. She said hers was good but a little underwhelming and increasingly spicy with every bite. It came in a little mini pot and had a opaque broth. I liked my dish. It was spicier than I would like but not as spicy as other Topokki I've tried. If that makes any sense. It was a generous portion but probably would want to add sausage next time and ask for milder spice. Probably sacrilegious of me to even ask lol. I'd go again to try some of the other popular dishes like the blood sausage and mixed fry set. The woman working there was nice and they gave out stamp cards.“

“The most delicious and authentic food I have ever eaten. Truly made with love and perfection! ❤️🙏“

“Korean review: really inexpensive and one of the only places in South Austin to get your Korean food fix. I know other reviews had some service problems but experienced NONE of that. Greeted immediately when walking in, we picked our seats and had multiple staff during our hour and a half stay check up on us even with a crowd of others arriving after us. We got the Kimbap appetizer split it for two (was delicious didn't need anything else like a sauce - perfect on it's own!). I got the beef bulgogi and my friend got the Rock Bibimbap with spicy pork (like regular Bibimbap but in a hot pot!). YALL LEMME TELL YOU THIS WAS SO GOOD. I was having an emotional experience with these flavors. Banchan selection was good too. Got 6 of them and one of them kimchi. I'll be back for take out and eventually try out the Japanese and Sushi portion of the menu.“

“I LOOOVE this place! The workers here are so nice and friendly. I know I work next to them but EVEN if I didn’t I would come every day just to say hi!! They truly put a smile on your face every time you walk in you fill welcomed.

Keep it up Chi’Lantro Mueller 🫶🏻“

“delicious and huge katsu !!!“

“It’s the best sushi ever and it’s a food truck. I just happened to yelp it and OMG!! Not to mention the lovely people who run it. Thanks for having me and I will be returning“

“Hana Yoree serves authentic Korean food, tucked away inside Hana World Asian Market.
My go-to comfort food here is their instant ramen, served with delicious cabbage and radish kimchi plus a bowl of white rice. Their kimchi pancake is excellent as well. Just a heads-up, it’s cash only!!!“

“Hand's down, our favorite sushi place around! We always sit at the sushi bar and Drew is amazing! I highly recommend the Big Bang roll. Has a little bit of everything and is a flavor orgasm in your mouth! LOVE!“

“Very good bento box! I had the beef bulgogi and kiddo had the chicken teriyaki. Everything tastes fresh and well prepared. It was a good value with 2 pieces of nigiri in addition to the typical Cali roll, tempura veggies, soup, salad, rice, veggies, and gyoza. We will be back!“

“I ordered delivery so no service or atmosphere but the food is WONDERFUL! I loved the cauliflower bites with vegan ranch (which is actually good) and my chicken bowl with broccoli and pineapple. My husband loved his steak bowl with chili sauce and avocado and the fries with seasoning. SO GOOD.“

“I love K-Bop's Bibimbap with Tofu or Spicy Chicken! With their kimchi on the side. Delicious!!! <3 <3 <3“

“Excellent bbq! Would eat there again“

“Cute vibes, and a different take on Korean food.

Food: we had the fried chicken, seasonal salad, and the wagyu. When looking around.. sooo many people had the fried chicken and our server told us they were known for their fried chicken and wagyu steak- which is why we got both. The fried chicken was a bit of a letdown for me. It was dry, wasn’t that crispy, and the flavor wasn’t out of this world- just tasted like toasted seaweed because of the nori flakes. Idk… just didn’t get the hype for $36 for a very small half bird. The wagyu was good tho, if not a bit sweet. Think bulgogi sauce marinaded. They had a great dipping sauce, but the meat wasn’t particularly tender and I wasn’t even asked what temperature I like my steak. It came out med rare. The kimchi that accompanied it was a cantaloupe kimchi.. which was ok, not my fav. The side pear salad tho was delicious, but still.. $18 for a side of pears and cucumbers.

Atmosphere was good. Very vibey and cute.

There’s a parking garage connected and they validate parking.“

“Glad to have found this place! We will be coming back for sure!“

“Love everything about it ❤️😍🙌“

“New favorite place to eat in Wichita. amazing food and amazing service. 10 out of 10“

“Great crispy batter, great fries, great sauces and great coleslaw. Food is always hot and fresh. Never had a bad experience.“

“Paik’s jajangmyeon is our comfort food. And it being located right in HMart food court makes it even easier. My go to is jajangmyeon with meat and that one dish alone deserves my 5 star. I tried their fried rice but didn’t enjoy it as much.“

“While this place is has alot of rare fruits and vegetables and a wide selection of Asian delectables, it is busy. Wall to wall. I rather go during the week when its not so crowded. Food court, we had the Korean chicken and another beef rib dish. Food is excellent. The restaurants are fast.“

“Fantastic Hamachi and atmosphere ❣️“

“I love Izumi! I’ve been here about 4 times and the food is always good. The staff is fast and friendly!“

“First time trying chilantro bbq and it was superb! Food was fresh and delicious! We will return.“

“Went here for the first time today and got the #1 B’BIMBAP BOWL and a Pineapple Cream Soda. A little on the pricey side ($20) for one person but it was ALOT of food and could work as two separate servings making it cheaper overall. That said, it was absolutely delicious and I am stuffed after only eating half of it. I def recommend trying if you’re in the area!“
