50 Best Korean Restaurants near The Colony

“great doughnuts. diferent flavor very fresh.“

“Amazing food and fast service! Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“amazing wings and food. Good vibe and music. the drinks from bar are great. e“

“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!“

“Full flavor of chicken tenders and Nashville hot type chicken sandwiches. Have gotten food to go from here a few times, each flavor of sauce has been great and the portions are filling. If your a chicken eater and like tenders and sammy’s you gotta try em out! 👊🏻“

“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.“

“Highly-recommend!!! Delicious food“

“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.“

“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!“

“So delicious! Beef bulgogi was perfection! And the tenders! 😋 Hot soy garlic and Korean sweet and spicy sauces were so good!“

“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! 💛“

“We absolutely loved our experience here!! I particularly enjoyed trying all the different sides that came with our meal. It was delicious and flavorful and a great bang for your buck! Our waitress was also very friendly and attentive. We'll be back for sure!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“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!“

“great food and very good service“

“Had an awesome experience at this Korean BBQ place! Hailey gave us amazing service the whole night — super friendly, attentive, and made us some delicious soju drinks. She really made the atmosphere fun and welcoming. Great food, great drinks, and even better service. We’ll definitely be coming 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.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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.“

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

“The food on a cold winter’s day really hit the spot served in the hot stone bowl! So delicious and everything was prepared exactly as I ordered from a kiosk.“

“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 recommend the Ube. The prettiest and tastiest soft serve I've ever had! 🍦😋 Definitely going back!“

“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“

“Spicy crab delicious！“

“cheese island is my home away from home“

“Love this place! Been coming here for bout 4 - 5 years now. It definitely is a dope vibe when you’re grubbing with the peeps and the servers are awesome. There are couple new faces for sure but they’re great and Jeffery and Moon are always attentive to making sure it’s always great when me and the squad come in, so much so they’ll have us seated and already bring out what we usually order. This is my kbbq place fasho I can go to the other fancy schmancy ones but they wont show love like the crew does here. Bring ya appetite and they’ll get ya right is all I can say.“

“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:)“

“As their name of the store means, their menu selection is consist of all time favorite Korean foods.
I tried several dishes including Jajang and Jjamppong which were not so salty or spicy.
All the ingredients were fresh even the shrimp in broth.
I wish they had the old style Donkatsu sauce but the fried pork was still good.
I’ll definitely keep coming back. A convenient location is also a plus.“

“This place is awesome very clean and cozy the food is delicious and its cheap too.“

“I tried the Toribowl Combo, and upgraded to include the Spicy Chai milk tea for my drink. Initially, it seemed a bit pricey for the bowl, but it is A LOT of food. Definitely enough for 2 meals for me. Very happy I upgraded to the chai, and I'm happy it actually had some spice to it. So many places serve chai that is just bland, and that isn't what chai even is. :) I'm curious to try another of their many drinks. Back to the food, besides the amount, it was tasty as well. Lots of good flavor! I went with the aloha bbq seasoning. The slaw was great too.“

“Great experience from start to finish. The chicken was crispy on the outside, tender inside, and packed with flavor. We tried a couple of different sauces, and both were excellent. The fries were fresh and well seasoned, and the tteokbokki had a nice kick. Friendly service, clean atmosphere, and generous portions. Definitely worth coming back.“

“literally everything on their menu is 🔥🔥 I'm not friends or family, I have no idea who owns this place but this is a Lewisville gem at this point. I miss the larger menu from when they first opened but I get that was kind of huge and maybe needed to focus. (But please at least bring back the waffle stick dessert stuff). I had the smash burger today for the first time and it honestly might be the best burger I've ever had.“

“Jang Choong Dong specializes in jokbal and bossam. A side of sundae goes perfect with those.

Jokbal and sundae makes a delicious and somewhat healthy lunch. A few people walked in, looked at the menu, and walked out. I don't know what they wanted but they're missing out.

This isn't the place for bulgogi and bim bim bap. It's a lot more. Give them a try. You'll be coming back for more.“

“The food is excellent here! Banchan is fresh, plentiful and varied. We had the soondubu combo with kalbi and ordered a kalbi tang as well. Both were excellent! This is a gem of a spot. Friendly waitstaff and excellent K-pop tv to watch while you eat.“

“Great experience love the sliding door arrangement for the dining“
