50 Best Korean Restaurants near Farmers Branch

“Good but a little expensive. I do wish they gave more potato salad in your plate and more pickled radish. It's a small portion compared to the meat, which I guess is good if you like a lot of meat. 👍 I like the grilled chicken and bulgogi. I frequently go here since I work nearby. It's a little expensive at $15-$20 for one meal for just yourself. I can't imagine taking my whole family here to eat but it's good. It's my treat lunch when I want to splurge. 😋“

“Food: Ordered the Beef Short Rib and Soon Tofu soups, both of which were amazing--the Beef Short Rib had a clean, light, rich flavor and was adequately salted, while the Soon Tofu had deeper flavors that were well balanced and kind of umami. We also had the Seafood Pancake, which had a nice crust, and you can actually taste the seafood (i.e., it wasn't eclipsed by too much pancake batter). Also, can we talk about the Banchan? It was a pleasant assortment, and it tasted fresh.

Service: Great! Nice waiters, quick service (although, we did come on a Thursday evening).

Ambiance: Casual.

Parking: Ample parking. Located in a plaza.“

“Me and my family have been to multiple Korean bbqs but this one has truly been outstanding. The food, the service, all so good! Truly sets your expectations high. Our server Kevin was very impressive, he was serving multiple tables at a time but yet was very attentive to every single one of them! He truly is amazing at his job! He is very hardworking and always has a positive energy! I truly look forward coming in every time! They truly serve me and my family amazingly!“

“The place was absolutely bustling and had a warm atmosphere inside. As always, the power of the consumer had us daunted with what menu item to choose for lunch. But the waitress Ai Lien made excellent recommendations for us: the special ox bone soup and squid stir fry! We will be back again!“

“Excellent food and great service! Thanks“

“This was my very first time dining at Manna Shabu & BBQ (Lewisville location) while visiting for a concert weekend, and I have to say—it was such a wonderful experience! They were even having a special collaboration with a local small business vendor for the Ateez concert and offering a complimentary Lemon Drop mocktail for each diner, which was such a fun and thoughtful touch. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed. I believe it was the owner or manager who greeted me, and when he learned it was my first visit, he kindly explained the menu, the dining options, and where to find the different food and sauce stations. I was then shown to my table where a very sweet server brought me water and took my order. Throughout my meal, two other staff members as well as the owner/manager checked on me often. The service was beyond excellent—everyone was attentive, helpful, and genuinely kind. Now onto the food—oh my gosh, the portions were incredible! I ordered three different meats and was so pleasantly surprised at the generous serving sizes. At most KBBQ places, one order barely feels like enough for a single person, but here, each order was hearty and satisfying. I couldn’t stop raving about it to my boyfriend and mom while on the phone during my meal! The meat was fresh, high-quality, and delicious—even without dipping sauces. The corn cheese also deserves a special shout-out—it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. Beyond the main dishes, there were so many great options: hot plates like mandu, sausage, japchae, fried rice, and chicken; a nice selection of banchan; an ice cream station for dessert; and a wide variety of sauces to complement everything. The restaurant itself was very clean, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and even the restrooms were spotless. I also loved that the TVs played some of my favorite K-pop groups and the music playlist was absolutely top tier—it really added to the fun vibe. Dining here as a solo traveler, I never once felt uncomfortable or out of place. On the contrary, I felt taken care of and treated like a queen. It was such a comforting and memorable experience, and I am so thankful for the outstanding hospitality and service I received. I highly recommend Manna Shabu & BBQ and can’t wait to come back with my family the next time I’m in town. Thank you for making my first visit such a wonderful one!“

“I was looking for a place to eat instant tteokbokki, and it was so delicious.
You can adjust the spiciness, there are different flavors, there are various types of rice cakes/noodles, and it's nice because it's clean.
I had a great time eating rice cakes and fried rice. I'll come again.“

“Everything was delicious! We had the kimchi, shrimp, pork and snowflake mandu. The service was great also. Can't wait to go back. My kiddos enjoyed everything too if that tells you anything 🥟😋“

“We visited this place last Sunday. It’s very family-friendly and great for dining with kids. I had the spicy seolleongtang, and the broth was very rich and flavorful. We also ordered dumplings and pork cutlet, and the kids absolutely loved them.

Our server didn’t seem to be Korean, but she spoke Korean very well and kindly explained the dishes to us. The service was very friendly and welcoming. Overall, it was a great experience and a nice place to visit with family.“

“Great food and great service!“

“I love this place! The food is phenomenal and the service is great. Thanks for being awesome K-Pop Ramon.“

“We traveled from Missouri and decided to stopped by this place. The food and service was amazing. Highly recommend!“

“Today was my first time here and I have to say I really enjoyed it. As you come inside the area is clean and neat. The staff friendly and always with a smile on their face. The portions are great and the price even better. And they even have sides that you can order and take home and they are really nice portion for a fraction of the cost compare to other establishments. Definitely worth it!!!“

“Best gamjatang in the DFW area! The portion sizes are generous, the flavors are authentic, and the service is always friendly. The pork is cooked to perfection, and the broth has that deep, savory kick you look for in a good soup. Highly recommend this spot if you want a warm, comforting Korean meal.“

“One of the best Korean meals I've had! Been twice and both times the Galbi and spicy pork were great. Not huge banchan but they do refills. Big selection and lots of tasty stuff so far, definitely recommend! (and they're air conditioning works better than some of their competition)“

“Ordered via Uber Eats and was thoroughly impressed. Having lived in Seoul before, I have high standards for Kimbap, and this is as authentic as it gets. The flavors are spot on and exactly what a proper Kimbap should taste like. I’ll definitely be ordering again and can’t wait to visit the shop in person!“

“Thé attentiveness of the staff and quality of the food are the best things about the restaurant. The cold hors d’œuvres were delicious.“

“So- over all it was great! I however was disappointed to find out the tofu pocket seems like it’s soaked in some sort of sweet syrup. I imagined it would be more savory as I’m not really a sweet kinda gal. I got the egg, fish egg, seared salmon, and crab ones. The egg and fish egg ones were really good actually and kinda work with the sweet tofu. However something was just really weird about the sweet tofu with the salmon and crab. Now- their strawberry matcha HECK YES! It was soooo good. I was a little sad to see there is no inside seating but I understand that’s the whole point of that “prep strip mall” area. Overall I definitely recommend you go try it and see if it’s your thing! The workers were very sweet as well and helped with any questions you have. Also not badly priced, I was kinda shocked how cheap! I only spent around $20 for 4 pockets and a strawberry matcha plus tip.“

“Delicious food and friendly service. Like it should be. They do it right!“

“I'd like to give a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ shoutout to Bros Korean BBQ, Sushi & Shabu! Pairing it with incredible company, this is the perfect unique date night spot! 💛“

“My first visit! I called in to order, and was told it would be ready in 25 minutes. I went in 25 minutes later and everything was fresh and hot! This was the best Korean BBQ fried chicken I have ever had in my lifetime! The french fries were perfect! Crispy and hot with a wonderful coating and honey butter flavor! This will be my go to place for chicken now! You can see that the staff prepare everything by hand, and the service is exceptional, love all the sauces too! Go ahead and try for yourself you will love it!“

“This place serves authentic Korean cold noodles, and even the dining system feels like Korea. You pay first, there’s no tipping, you pick up your own food, and return your tray when you’re finished.
I’ve tried cold noodles at several Korean restaurants throughout the DFW area, and this is by far the best one I’ve found. I noticed they use a real cold noodle press machine in the kitchen, which makes the noodles fresh and gives them an excellent texture.
The Korean dumplings(만두)were huge, and the portion sizes were very generous overall. If you’re looking for authentic Korean cold noodles(냉면) in DFW, I highly recommend giving this place a try.“

“Love this place so much! We have been coming here and ordering takeout from here for a while! Always good food and amazing service!
Loooove the kimchi here! My husband loves the short rib soup! And I love the kalbi (sooo tender!) and the bulgogi (the whole pieces of garlic is such a good touch!).
My mother in law loves this place so much, that every time she is in town, we have to get this place!
They even gave my baby girl a rubber ducky to play with haha!“

“Went here last night for dinner with my wife. Met the new owner, who came and introduced himself. Very friendly and loved that he took time to visit with us, box up the leftovers and gave us a very honorific good bye as we left. We will certainly be back.“

“We had such a wonderful experience here. From the moment we walked in, we were treated like family. The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming, which made us feel right at home.
The food was absolutely delicious,full of flavor, fresh, and truly heartwarming. You can tell everything is made with care and love. Every dish we tried was amazing.
This is not just a place to eat, it’s a place to enjoy a genuine, comforting experience. We will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!“

“This is easily one of the most authentic Korean spots in the Carrollton area. If you’re looking for a place that feels like a genuine neighborhood deli in Korea, this is it.
The highlight of the meal was definitely the **intestine soup**. It is hands down the best I’ve had—the broth is incredibly deep and flavorful, and the ingredients are prepared perfectly. It’s the kind of hearty, comforting dish that’s hard to find executed this well.
Beyond the main dishes, their **banchan (side dishes)** selection is impressive. Not only is everything fresh and delicious, but the portions are **huge**. They really don't skimp on the variety or the amount, which makes the whole meal feel like a feast.
The atmosphere is cozy and no-frills, which I personally love because it shows the focus is entirely on the quality of the food. If you want real-deal Korean comfort food with generous portions, I can’t recommend Ajumma Sundae Deli enough!“

“This is the perfect spot for casually hanging out with friends. Their spicy tteokbokki is beyond amazing. You can truly taste that it’s homemade. The rice cakes have the perfect texture, making it impossible to resist going back for another bite.
They play all the 2000s K-pop hits, which makes the atmosphere even more nostalgic“

“I came to Gopchang Story on Sunday evening for dinner, and Peter was our server. He was incredibly friendly, attentive, and had a great sense of humor that made the whole experience enjoyable. He made us feel very comfortable throughout the meal and provided excellent service. The food was great, but Peter’s outstanding hospitality really made the visit memorable. I would definitely love to be served by him again the next time I come back. Highly recommend!“

“I really enjoyed my meal and experience at Doma Seolleongtang. It felt like being in Korea when I walked in. To make it more authentic, we received a special kind of cold tea to open the palate before the meal and washed down the meal afterward. The music on was not Kpop but a mellow mix of Korean songs which helped me to savor my delicious bowl of beef rib soup. My soup came with glass noodles and enoki mushrooms. It was a lot of food for the price. We also received little dishes of kimchi, a bowl of white rice each, and a condiment each to dip the meat. The waitress was so thoughtful to bring my daughter a condiment without spicy stuff. Most everyone at my table loved their food and ate quietly. Only my daughter complained about her soup being under seasoned but that is why they have salt and pepper on the table, so she adjusted the two to her taste and ate the rest of the time in peace. I appreciate the warm, friendly, and attentive service. I appreciate the cleanliness of the restaurant and its bathrooms. Most of all, I really appreciate the warm, hearty, delicious meal. Best Korean food I’ve ever had in the USA. The kimchis were the best I’ve ever eaten. This is a special spot serving all beef broth soups and beef meat plates.“

“One of the best seolleongtang (설렁탕) I’ve had. The broth was rich, creamy, and full of deep beef flavor without being greasy. The meat was tender, the portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh. The green onions, salt, pepper, and kkakdugi paired perfectly with the soup. If you’re looking for authentic Korean comfort food, this place is definitely worth visiting. I’ll definitely be back!“

“SO GOOD! I came here for lunch and my group and I ordered fried chicken with fries and Teokbokki with cheese and ramyun. The chicken was incredible and super crispy! The sauces were absolutely delicious. The teokbokki was amazinggg!! My friend and I adore teokbokki and order it all the time when it's available but this one takes the cake. We devoured it so quick we almost considered ordering another. I really want to try their more traditional food items since it looks incredible! I am definitely coming back. The service was lovely and they even gave us a pineapple shaved ice at the end which was really nice after all of the incredible spicy food.“

“Very nice waiters/waitress and awesome food“

“I LOVE Hungry Belly! We order delivery at least once a week. The sushi is always delicious and fresh and the teriyaki salmon bento box is my absolute fave. You also can’t go wrong with Yummy Shrimp. So good!!“

“Located in Hmart plaza with tons of competitive options. Maht is the place to go when you want to have Korean style ribs and basically meat based dishes. Have gone multiple times and has always been consistent with quality of food and service.

A sleeper is the spicy version of Seolleongtang. Had it for the first time and it was very rich in savory flavor and had excellent heat.“

“The honey garlic boneless wings are all I want for my birthday! The chicken is always tender, full of flavor and cooked to perfection. This is the best restaurant to come onto Greenville Avenue in a decade. I want to try every flavor! Always smiling staff too :-)“

“First time trying this place (and porridge overall), and I ordered the Beef Juk. It has to be one of the best spots around. I went on a 100-degree day, and despite the heat—and eating a bowl of hot porridge—it was absolutely worth it.

I already know this place is going to be unbeatable in the winter. The portions are incredibly generous, and every bite is packed with flavor.

I’d highly recommend this place and will most definitely be returning.“

“I had a river rat at home, so I ate it and it was so delicious! The assorted boiled pork, seolleongtang, and seasoned crab were crazy!!It doesn't smell at all, it's delicious, and I'll be visiting often!!All kimchi is delicious, but green onion kimchi is especially delicious?The marinated crab is tastier than the one you buy at a side dish restaurant, and there is a lot more of it!!“

“The side dishes are so delicious that I go here every time I go to Dallas. I really like the combination of pig’s feet and makkimchi. It’s better than the jokbal restaurant. We live in the countryside, so we buy a lot at once, and they always provide great service and are very kind. The seasoned crab sauce is delicious, so I buy it often.“

“This place is AMAZING!!!! Food is delicious and service was superb! Must try !!“

“So the restaurant is now called
Dalmaekju Restaurant. They moved into a larger space in the same shopping center (suite 115). The banchan were delicious- I especially enjoyed the bean sprouts and the seaweed with pieces of zucchini. I had the Yookgejang which was boiling hot and just the right spiciness. Tons of flavor. Came with purple rice which is nice. Got dried pollack soup take out which was really good too. The ladies who run the restaurant are all very friendly. Great place for hot Korean soups.“

“The food was great and Mira was fantastic service, highly recommend! ???“

“Great place to eat“

“This hidden gem is now one of my favorite hang out spots. The vibe is always nice and the staff literally treats you like family :) The karoke set up is really nice, good sound quality and LED lights for the best night of entertainment. You can enjoy the night vibes with any size group of friends. The drinks and food are great as well, amazing hospitality, it makes you feel right at home. I’m looking forward to visiting again and again to sing and dance the night away!!! This place is so much fun!!! :)“

“We love this place!!! Clean, staffs nice and efficient!!! Lots of choice to pick from and there’s plenty of Soju!!! The price is fair and the option is a lot. Lamb, beef, pork, not to mention even fish!!! Everyone should give it a try!!!“

“I ordered Gan Jjajang for pickup during my workday, and it was fantastic! Savory, a little sweet, with a rich vegetable flavor and tender pieces of pork. The family who runs the restaurant were very kind too. I will be back to try the fried dishes soon!“

“This place has pretty delicious Pho for a korean take on Pho. The regular pho tastes pretty close to a traditional vietnamese pho if you ask me. I think if they had white onions instead of purple, it would take this pho to another level. Otherwise, I am pretty satisfied with this place. I’ve had the garlic pho on another occasion and think that the regular pho tops it! Overall a wonderful place for a quick lunch“

“I saw people recommend their pork from apps RedNote. Also, my Korean coworker also recommended it. I only order half & half, which only has big plate. This is a lot….I mean a lot (I could eat half a rack of ribs + other things Or solo the All U Can Eat sushi bar)…. So, I only finished 1/4 around plate. They are tasty. Pork is soft:)… I recommend a group of 4 to 5 people to finish it and that costs around 80 (including tax+tips)… so, it is good deal and tasty:)“
