50 Best Korean Restaurants in Austin

“Ate here a few times and it’s became my favorite korean restaurant. Food is authentic Korean meals! Only complaint is that I noticed that they gave different side dishes to koreans who were there which I was alittle disappointed by. Aside from that, food was amazing, service could use some more checking in but the restaurant was small enough that they notice right away when you need something. I haven’t tried their meals for 3-4 people yet but i would love to try that someday. Their portion sizes were huge too honestly could do 2meals with it if you are a small eater.“

“Delicious Korean fried chicken, great sides, friendly efficient staff. Yum!“

“It was absolutely delicious“

“Excellent bbq! Would eat there again“

“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!!“

“One of the few places that open late in austin. They also have a karaoke room too. You order through their QR code and pay online. My favorite dish from them is the spicy seafood hot pot. We asked to switch the udon noodle for ramen. It was really yummy but they took a while making it. I also tried their fried chicken. They cook it really well, but their cheese flavoring need more powder on it. It tasted like normal fried chicken. Their dumpling and la galbi were decent. The corn cheese wasn’t the best. I didn’t like their rice cake and sausage skewer. The sauce tasted too much like ketchup.“

“Best food in town! Excellent service if you tell me. Rice cake, Kimchee pancake, and corn cheese is something I suggest as a starter. Main dish, i would suggest fried chicken sweet-n-mild, squid stir-fried, and bu Dae jeans gol (military soup). Try this place you won't regret!“

“Flavor is on point, staff are friendly and service is fast.

It’s on a pricier range compared to other Korean chicken places. I had to pay for rice on the side.

Parking: The area gets packed, parking could be tricky.“

“I’m obsessed with narrow street. The spicy pork and squid A4. It’s packed full of veggies and flavor. We drive from south austin and make a day of it and I ALWAYS eat here. The service is fast and the food is fresshhhhh. The price may seem like a lot but the portions can feed two people or be 2-3 meals for one person.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Real tasty. Great service. I was working in an office down the way here in Austin I’m glad I went. Such a fun combination of flavors. I went with the bulgogi steak and the glazed chicken with a fried egg and guacamole. Kind of has a Cava or Chipotle vibe if you’re used to that make it your own speed service. Worth trying.“

“Chilantro is one of my favorites and today’s visit at the Burnet Rd location was no exception! The food was incredible as always but it was the staff that made my stop so worthwhile. Mark, who helped me was so friendly and went above and beyond to make my experience enjoyable. Thank you so much!“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“Food is always fresh when we come, staff is friendly and knowledgeable about their menu. Definitely recommend stopping by!

Vegetarian options: Options available

Parking: Might have to circle around but their parking lot is very big, won’t waste much time looking“

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

“Just like everyone else I was shocked! I tried the Beef Bulgogi Box with extra Banchans (sides) and it was amazing. I requested for no spicy if possible (hard to do) and they did it! The food reminds me of New York Korean food. It’s really filling and nutritional, I cannot wait to have an excuse to order again.

I will say they give a generous amount of sides so if you really like rice like me, get an extra side of rice instead.“

“Reasonable prices and the cutest family run place!! My husband and I have tried the stir fried fish cakes, pickled and seasoned garlic stem, and seasoned radish and everything was prepared and seasoned to perfection. Will definitely come back!“

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

“Lunch arrived quickly at the table, very hot and fresh. Delicious and filling. Attentive service. Definitely worth a visit when you are in the area.“

“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!“

“First time, we were greeted as soon as we opened the door! Worker seemed nervous and slower than others but he got help to keep the flow going. The wings are amazingly delicious! Kpop bowl was delicious and everything looked fresh! Looking forward to eating here regularly. I hope they can open one in Manor TX and everywhere!! We need more real food options! The fruit sodas were delicious and different. Yum!

Kid-friendliness: Small space to seat but high chairs are available. Restroom has changing table, spacious and clean.“

“delicious and huge katsu !!!“

“This Chi'Lantro has amazing food and amazing service! I would definitely come back if we were in Austin longer. Lots of vegan and gluten-free options including the noodles! Try the kimchi and marinated tofu.

Vegetarian options: Lots of vegan options

Dietary restrictions: Lots of vegan and gluten free options clearly labeled“

“This is specifically a to go place, the order was neatly prepared in compostable bowls which I really liked. There were plenty of vegetarian options to pick from. We got the tofu bowl and avocado impossible bulgogi which were both very good. I substituted the rice with sweet potato noodles which I really liked. A quick note that creamy sesame sauce is sweet.“

“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.“

“Tucked inside Hanna Market. I ordered the beef BBQ and the side items are authentic and excellent!The bulgogi was tender and flavorful. I would rate this so far the best bulgogi so far! Atmosphere is ok. The seating area was adequate and service was decent. For the food, I would definitely come back again!“

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

“Go during their lunch time (11am-3pm weekdays), so the price is cheaper. There are a variety of bento boxes, fried rice, stews, and ramens options for their lunch menu. I got their seafood soft tofu jigae which was good and spicy. I also had their beef bulgogi ramen. The broth was slightly sweet, but I like the slightly chewy ramen the most. Both of these were on the lunch options. Their seafood pancake is huge to justify the $16 price point. It’s not the best I ever had, but it wasn’t bad.“

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

“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!“

“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“

“nice and quiet. dark. and the food was amazing.“

“We arrived at the restaurant almost around 11 PM, and despite the late hour and the chilly weather outside, Chandu welcomed us with a warm, friendly smile and served us with great patience. We ordered idly and dosa, and both were delicious—definitely worth the visit. The food was great, but what stood out the most was Chandu's exceptional service. His attentiveness and positive attitude made our experience so much better. Highly recommend if you're looking for tasty food and excellent service, especially late at night!“

“it eas a wonderful experience with excellent staff and damm good viddlles. 💯😎🤓❤️🙏“

“Fantastic Hamachi and atmosphere ❣️“

“I'll give this 5 stars because the food is amazing - if you order the right combo! Their magic sauce is delicious. The k pop chicken ( I think that's the name) is very good! This is my new fav place. The service is just order at the counter - nothing special there. The atmosphere is just okay. It's pretty small inside and can get pretty busy. The price is spendy but it's sooo good! I don't like their drinks- tastes watered down so I don't recommend those.

Parking: During lunch it can be hard to find a spot to park it's also hard to back out of those spots!“

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

“best beef and broc of all the buffets“
