34 Best Korean Restaurants near South Salt Lake

“A great restaurant open since 2019. The owner is from Korea and is very passionate about his food which is all delicious. Definitely order the Bibimbap! It's #6 on the menu. It's a stone bowl which is very hot in Cooks the food right in there and they serve the whole thing in the bowl.“

“Delicious light lunch at a nice eatery in the Chinatown mall. Courteous and attentive staff. The chicken skewers were tasty and had a sweet chili sauce that was supposed to be medium spicy(but wasn't, however l liked it anyway) the salads were flavorful and fresh. The pickled cucumbers were sweet and refreshing and made a great accompaniment to the rice. Ill definitely return to try other offerings. Check it out!“

“Their kimbap is my favorite! I haven’t tried a lot of the food they offer but their tteokbokki is pretty good, as well as their kimchi fried rice, although I do wish the pieces of ham were slightly bigger. Great place to go to if you are looking for Korean side dishes or food to go“

“Best tteokbokki I ever had in Utah! Great addition to Chinatown area! Affordable price for big portion! What I love about their rice cake is that it doesn’t harden even when I took it home. Really good variety of flavor, spicy level, and side dishes! My favorite is the rose tteokbokki with giant rice cake adding cheese on top! Pair it with fish cake soup, fried dumplings, or fried seaweed rolls!
Only cons is how small and limited seats are at the place.“

“I was here yesterday afternoon, the waiters were very kind, especially the guy who served me, he was attentive to whether we needed anything and whenever he asked us if we were okay, he told us he would be at the front in case we wanted anything else (the skinny guy)

The only thing I didn't like very much was the variation in the music. I think they should put more songs in English and not just in Korean, because there were a lot of Americans and not all of us like Korean music.“

“Lovely restaurant with very friendly staff. Came here with friends who recommended it after saying it was the best Korean food they had found in Salt Lake. I tried their recommendations for the lunch combo, the Beef Buligogi and the Soondubu Chigae. A great deal for the the variety of food you get. I’m probably a bad judge for this style of food but it was good and everyone enjoyed their meal. The metal cups and chop sticks were cool though!“

“New owners took over a few months ago, and they definitely made it much better!! I felt like the previous owners were trying to cater to non-Koreans too much, where as now I feel it's very authentically Korean.
I tried the chicken porridge and was blown away by how good it is!! I will definitely be back with friends to try the chicken!!
If you've come before and were disappointed, I urge you to come back and try it again!!!“

“First i want to say, you cook your own food, so the one star review who said they got sick, LEARN TO COOK! This place is the best. My wife and i come here whenever we get the chance. The food, atmosphere, everything, is just great. We get hot pot and bbq each time. our go to dishes are the rib eye soup, and mine is the Tom yum. We get the black pepper pork, and short ribs without fail. Do not listen to the ones who complain about KBBQ because the truth is they dont understand or respect it. Go here, always.“

“delicious foods friendly atmosphere“

“Paik’s Noodle is a must-visit for foodies seeking an authentic Asian dining experience. Their Chilli Jjamppong is a spicy seafood noodle soup that’ll tantalize your taste buds. The broth is a perfect blend of heat and depth, with generous portions of seafood and veggies. The noodles are chewy and cooked to perfection, making every bite a delight. The restaurant’s cozy atmosphere and friendly service add to the overall positive experience. If you’re craving a hearty and spicy noodle dish, Paik’s Noodle is definitely worth a visit!

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly, went in with my kids and the service was exceptional.“

“Excellent cheese Katsu, excellent service, and the breading they use is better than any I have tasted. If you want a variety of flavors try the curry Katsu, and if you want something even more filling try the massive King Katsu.“

“best food in town. friendly staff and great portion sizes“

“I used Bumblebees for catering for a work event and ate at their restaurant. Both services were fantastic! They were extremely easy to work with and accommodating various food restrictions. The feedback from the team was wonderful; people were eager to take leftovers and requested we cater from them often! I will 100% use their catering services again!

Their restaurant is great as well. Delicious, fresh ingredients and creative fusions. Their meats are cooked just right. The atmosphere/decor is not particularly exciting or unique, but that doesn't matter when the food is so good! Absolutely would recommend.“

“Visiting Salt Lake from Idaho and had to try Korea House for authentic Korean cuisine. We were not disappointed either with the food or the kind & friendly server. The flavors and textures were a perfect balance like something you'd expect right out of "Kimchi Family". 고맙습니다“

“the corn dogs were seasoned so well and tasted amazing. my order was wrong the first time and when i came up to the counter to fix it she gave me a free mini corn dog as well for the inconvenience which was so sweet!! will definitely come back :)“

“Really nice people, food was AMAZING, I got the kko kko bop one of aka 6. And it was good, I also did a 3 on SPICY with btw!!!
You get to choose your own spicy level!!!!!
so good!!
I also tried the level 1 and it was good too
( I found a bone in my chicken but that's how you know it's fresh so AWESOME)
IT ALSO HAS CABBAGE AND RICE AT THE BOTTOM AND IT'S JUST AMAZING!!!
I'd definitely recommend coming here!!!

Vegetarian options: I think you can minus meat + other things you don't want from what I can see

Parking: Tons of spots, really close too!!!

Kid-friendliness: It's kid friendly and kids will absolutely LOVE the food

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy get in and get out, tons of space and it's flat floor so it's easy“

“We called ahead and order we're only about 5 minutes away they said it would be 15 minutes. We paid the asked us to pull around and wait a little bit. I ended up having to take my kids to go to the bathroom, and they saw that I had pulled into a parking stall. When we came back they have the food ready and said they tried to find me. They went up and beyond to make sure I got my food.“

“A hidden gem... This restaurant was surprisingly the best restaurant I’ve been to in a long while. Bok Bok chicken is the definition of a true (hole in the wall restaurant) if you are fortunate enough to stumble upon this restaurant you are surely to be surprised from the high caliber food this establishment is putting out for the public. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The fried tofu at 7.5 spice is very mild. Good flavor, but if you're looking for more heat I'd say 9 is a better option. It's closer to Sriracha, but not too spicy yet. The apple and strawberry flavored milkies are also pretty good and not odd tasting. The Korean corn dogs are best served with corn flakes, and the all cheese weighs a decent amount. Overall, good value and the taste is worth the price.“

“best food in town. friendly staff and great portion sizes“

“The West Valley location is the place for quick reliable Korean. The staff go above and beyond to welcome you and provide top notch food and service.

Vegetarian options: Their doochi bop is exceptional.

Dietary restrictions: We love their selection of vegan and gluten free menu options.“

“Fantastic food, great service. Luckily I understand the business plan behind 'all you can eat', so I paced myself and thoroughly enjoyed my meal. I was however a bit disappointed that I couldn't be there for Mr Shabu's altercation with I can only assume an overly entitled Yelper. Perhaps next time.“

“limpieza, rapidez , amabilidadn orde. etc.“

“My wife and I were our way to the Maverick Center, and she wanted some sushi. I saw the sign, and it turned out to be some of the most exquisite tasting sushi we've ever had. We'll definitely be returning. Next time, we'll order from the Korean menu.
I'll also note that our server was the most friendly and attentive waitress we've had in a LONG time she was amazing. This place deserves more than 5 stars!
Oh, one more thing, the prices are great too. You can easily take the whole family.“

“There are self serve kiosks for cards and a window for cash. Overall the experience doesn’t necessarily pull you in. Lightly decorated, but without any interaction it feels a bit cold. I got the cheesesteak and it was a blend of flavors. Spicy bulgogi with melted cheese and some veggies that were cooked just right. Bread was also great regarding texture and taste. The food is good, might just take it to go next time. Also be prepared to spend around $20 per person.“

“I love everything there, food, service, location 😋 😍 You won't regret going. From the out it does not look as a Restaurant but it makes it more nicer when you discover the inside of it!!!“

“SOOO GOOD! Definitely a five star experience.“

“Everything is just perfect. the environment, food, staff, the alcohol.. amazing!“

“This was my first time eating here and it was delicious. The staff was patient while we picked out our meals and kindly explained the difference in options. Will definitely be back!

Vegetarian options: Great options for vegetarians!“

“We ate here before a movie. Food is good. but I think I would prefer less rice and more noodles. Also the portion size was HUGE! For me, this wasn't an advantage this time (since we were going to a movie) and I'd like to suggest smaller portion size options in the future.“

“i love there food it is so good!! i go a lot with my family and everyone loves it!!

Kid-friendliness: they have options on the menu for kids like the kids bop and you can select your own spice level so if your kid does not like spice then you can get no spice or very little spice.“

“We love ordering from So Grill Korean BBQ and Sushi. The sushi has way more sashimi in it than any other sushi restaurants in the valley which surprises me, and they are delicious! Huge menu to select from with sushi, appetizers and their daily Korean BBQ buffet. Great presentation of food with decent taste.
Hostess and restaurant owner are always very friendly and smiling! Thanks for the great food! : )“
