29 Best Korean Restaurants near Kent

“Sharming, great prices & delicious food!“

“I really love this place. I saw the low reviews on Yelp and was skeptical but still wanted to try. I’m glad I did! The low reviews were for the customer service, but it was clearly really good: they were friendly and polite. They even helped me package my leftovers into to-go boxes when they saw me struggling. Now the food: absolutely delicious. It tastes authentic and comforting. Spicy is actually spicy. The Bangchan is so good; dare I say it’s probably the thing I’ll come back for, if not for the tofu stew! Kimchi is superb, but the star of the show is the cucumber kimchi (it’s sweet, sour, crunchy, and spicy!). Plus, it’s unlimited; all you have to do is ask. I got the mushroom tofu stew, which came with stone pot rice. It is a steal for $18, as the portion size is big. It might not look like it, but I was eating my meal for a good 30 minutes. At the end of it, I was absolutely stuffed. Highly recommend, too bad I live in Houston ?

Vegetarian options: There’s option(s) for vegetarians, and you can always ask the staff to switch or take out meat for you.“

“I have been waiting a long time for a Korean restaurant in Kent. The food is good I recommend the Bibimbop or the Stir fried Squid. They serve family style with all the little side dishes, a little Americanized on the flavors so if you want spicy be sure to tell them.“

“Every time I go, it's so delicious, the staff is friendly, and the main dishes and side dishes are filled with sincerity, and they don't skimp on the ingredients. It's delicious and clean, so it's not a waste of money.
I was originally a clear soup fan, but when I met my husband, I started eating gomtang and seolleongtang. To be honest, I ate it without any special inspiration, and then I came across the best seolleongtang and gomtang not in Korea but in the United States..^^
This is the best restaurant for me ^^
Be sure to try it~~“

“The restaurant servers were kind and they were fast. Always helpful by guiding us how to best experience Korean BBQ“

“The bibimbap is excellent! Large portion sizes and very tasty. The katsu curry was a bit weaker in terms of flavor, I wished they had included katsu sauce with the dish, or used pork instead of chicken. Using the non-grill menu was much better value, I'd recommend avoiding the grill unless you want the experience. I'd definitely come back here!“

“This felt very authentic and welcoming of perceived newcomers. Every server was concerned in the best ways to ensure we have an amazing experience. The food recommendations and explanations on each dish were on par. The spicy beef soup was light and had a mild to maybe medium spice depending on how sensitive you are, the beef was tender.
The ox bone broth in the traditional korean soup was so warm and cozy and milky, slowly adding salt and pepper, almost felt spiritual.The kimchi tasted very unique and almost sweet. The flavor of the radish surprised me. It was so sparkly, crunchy, with a nice spicy kick.“

“Love their KBBQ & service“

“the best lunch I've had in a while.“

“The food was incredible! I got the Kimchi fries with beef bolgogi. It was so good! I highly recommend this dish! You have order your food on a computer screen, which was lame and impersonal, so it looses point for service, but that's nitpicking at best. I highly recommend this place!“

“Great service. The server kept checking on our table and served two kinds of water, warm and cold. We got lucky to have some cut apples for free dessert as we were the only table.I love their food too. Their menu is intentionally simple, which is common for specialized restaurants in Korea. It really brings me the tastes of the Korean food I long for! Their porkbone soup(gamjatang) is hands down my favorite Korean soup in town. I like the variety of their side dishes too“

“Top environment & top food & top service!!!
Everyone should try their variety beers & deserts as well!

Vegetarian options: Vegetable mixed rice, pancake w/scallions & lots of side dishes for free, even refills for free. I tried soft tofu soup w/ sea food.
Wonderful!“

“Great new spot for Korean food! Generous portions for good value with very friendly and attentive service. Their speciality is the deep fried whole chicken which I highly recommend. The Army stew is one of my personal favorites.

This spot is perfect for both dinner and late night food/drinks. It's a very casual, but lively place reminiscent of the traditional pocha-restaurants in Korea.

They've just recently remodeled and opened so please show them some love!“

“Absolutely hands-down my favorite spot for mandoo and cold noodles!! The pan-fried dumplings are 2 orders per person, and I almost always order the max. The owners are so lovely, and everything just feels so authentic and tastes incredible. I'm pretty sure I've tried everything on the menu except for the frozen dumplings to make at home. So I guess that's on my list for next time!! OH, they give you a cup of broth to sip on while you wait that I could drink a gallon of. Just go. You won't regret it!!!“

“Fresh tasty foods with excellent customer service. I love that they changed it up and added more delicious dishes for the Korean BBQ buffet. I've been here a few times over the past 5 years and it was good every time unlike some other locations.“

“Love this location and the staff!??
My son loves to come here! It is very
clean and has a cool window Bar table with stools. Anime lovers should adopt this place for they also hang art?? Great job staff at Seoul Hotdog!????❤️“

“I came where with a group of 8 to celebrate a birthday. We ordered the virgin bossam combo, an extra serving of meat, kimchi pancake, and some noodle dish (the name escapes me now…). We had more than enough to eat. Definitely get the extra helping of meat and thank me later! Good was top notch but service was lacking a bit. They never really came back to check on our table. I appreciated, though, that they didn’t mind us bringing in cake.“

“Great experience again. First time was back near new years. Had great chicken stew plus friend chicken.

This time we had stir fried pork, squid, and fried chicken! All lot of food for a low price! Tastes great too!

Definitely will be coming back.“

“FINALLY A GOOD JJAJANGMYUN AND TANGSUYUK PLACE IN FEDERAL WAY!!! I was skeptical at first when I heard about this place, because the restaurant they replaced (Hyang Mi) was terrible in my opinion, but I finally tried B Won and it is fantastic! Good vibes, good service, and great food.
The jjajangmyun noodles are nice and chewy.
The tangsuyuk batter is SUPER crispy and puffy and made with some sort of rice flour or something similar.
The ganpoonggi is also really tasty, nice and sweet and sour.
The jjamppong is just ok, I prefer mine a little more charred and roasted, but they gave plenty of noodles and vegetables.
Portion sizes are huge too, highly recommend!“

“Food was delicious, had generous portions, and came with lots of sides that were refilled a few times. The staff was friendly and attentive. Will be back!

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs, flat surface, and space to put a wheelchair at the end of booths.“

“There were six of us and we were coming from a show and really hungry. In the end, I didn't take any photos cuz we started eating as soon as the banchan was served, and didn't let up till everything had been eaten.The service was phenomenal! Our server was very attentive. We got extras on various banchan - all freshly made by the server's mom and all delicious. Apparently Grandma grows her own cukes for the cucumber kimchi - when we were leaving, she promised to have some when we came back in summer.Although I can't show you what we got, I will say that the seafood pancake was the best I've ever eaten - fluffy but still that spongy texture that I love. We also had beef bulgogi and spicy pork and the tofu soup, and we cleaned ALL the plates. My only unfulfilled wish was for brown rice.It's a nice place. Very family friendly and the food was wonderful.

Kid-friendliness: There is a bar on one side of the restaurant, but children are welcome in the main area. We had one 12-year-old with us and the server was very attentive to her needs. The child knocked over her soda and we had plenty of help mopping up the spill and she was given another drink. Of course, she was embarrassed, but the server was very considerate and didn't make the kid feel bad about wasting her soda.“

“The girl at work tonight was awesome!!!! Compared to other Korean restaurants, the service was fast and courteous. Even though the evening rush was huge, they updated us on the situation and brought us water while handling other orders. I tried Korean-style American fried chicken for the first time in the U.S. It's similar to the Korean-style batter, and the soy garlic flavor is much better than the one I had in Korea. thank you! Thanks for the great staff. I will be back soon and will recommend it to my Korean friends!“

“No frills Korean BBQ. The meat is on an island. You select what you want and cook it. There are other side dishes. I pretty much stuck to the galbi, marinated beef ribs. I’m stuffed myself.“

“One of the best Korean restaurants in Federal Way. Have been there with both my Mom and husband recently.“

“My first time trying jajangmyeon I don’t really know if I can compare or have much knowledge on how it should taste but I thought it was good, also got the orange chicken my baby loved both. Chicken had a nice subtle orange flavor not too overpowering to keep you eating more, sides were also different flavor/texture to have kimchi is a nice touch to add so was the radish. The most friendliest people ever which makes this place above 5 stars. More than enough food for lunch & dinner I highly recommend Malri Hyang without a doubt.“

“This was our first visit today, and it was an outstanding experience. The food was excellent, and the staff, especially our server Julia, were incredibly friendly and attentive. She said she was new and was still training- she is already a pro and one that will have customers keep coming back. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. Julia's exceptional service made the experience even more enjoyable; she wasn’t pushy, she checked in, got to know us, and I felt so comfortable that I unconsciously started calling her aunty. I'm already looking forward to returning, as this has quickly become my favorite KBBQ spot. The all-you-can-eat option, combined with the excellent staff and great pricing, make it a place I highly recommend! It is also clean.“

“My favorite place to eat in renton and we go here twice a week! The owner and his son have amazing customer service, I love the atmosphere, music and food. I always order the veggie pho, crab rangoons and fresh rolls. Not pictured is the Thai iced tea I had. So yummy!“

“Nice & clean restaurant which serves a Korean specialty called Soondae. This dish is for the serious Korean foodie. Soondae is a blood sausage which I had served in a piping hot & spicy broth. Comes in non spicy as well if you don't like the heat. Not many restaurants in the area serve this dish. I would recommend it if you like Soondae or want to try it.“

“food was goodsrvice was good too!“
