50 Best Korean Restaurants near Mill Creek

“Best place to eat yourself full!“

“Absolute best teriyaki ever. Can be a long wait sometimes but it’s not an issue if you call or order ahead. Huge portions, delicious food. One of- if not the only- teriyaki place I’ve found that has such a superb quality of meat where you don’t waste any due to gristle or overly fatty peices etc (if you don’t like that). Always a 10/10.“

“this place is so 🤌🤌🔥🔥🔥 should have a line out the door. hugeeee portions and wow. so good! bravo🫵🫵“

“I tried this place for the first time tonight and it was absolutely incredible!! Chicken was just amazing and the pickled radish is an awesome accent! will def be back soon!“

“First time here and will surely come back, staff are very friendly, food is great and the place is very clean.“

“Bothell’s Ta Joia isn’t your sleepy strip-mall filler—it’s a technicolor veggie parade disguised as dinner. I ordered bibimbop, spring rolls, and the feijoada bowl, which felt like a samba in a rice bowl. It’s the rare spot where “eating your vegetables” is less a chore and more a sly dare. Flavor bombs everywhere, and suddenly I’m craving greens I never cared about. That’s Bothell magic.“

“Discovered this cafe online from here in Aotearoa New Zealand. The warm glow emanating from the collective superlatives in these reviews has even managed to momentarily brighten our antipodean winter solstice today. Menu photos alone are enough to satisfy at this distance.“

“I decided to give this restaurant a try after someone on Threads recommended it as the best Korean restaurant in Seattle. It was even more delicious than I expected!

For our main dishes, we ordered the pork bulgogi and spicy pork bulgogi. Both were incredibly flavorful, and the portions were good enough for 3 of us. The side dishes were plentiful and varied, and every single one was so good.

We visited with our kid, and the staff were so welcoming. The owner provided crayons and coloring sheets for our kid to enjoy. The owner was so warm and friendly.

Our family loved all the food and our kid even said he wanted to come back again. I honestly wish we had discovered this restaurant sooner. We’ll definitely be coming back, and I’m already looking forward to our next visit!“

“The seolleongtang here feels like a warm touch of the heart—comforting, authentic, and full of that homemade feeling. The kimchi and radish dishes also taste homemade, which adds another layer of authenticity to the experience.

The menu is quite small, but that’s understandable given the restaurant’s focus on seolleongtang. And honestly, they do what they do very well. The seafood pancake was jeeeeeeeeez delicious. It had a beautiful crispness, was cooked to perfection, and had plenty of seafood spread throughout instead of just a few pieces here and there.

One thing I almost forgot to mention: don’t skip the wasabi with the sauce on the side for the seolleongtang. Adding it to the meat takes the flavor up another notch and really hits the spot.

The interior is modern, clean, and cool. The restaurant itself is also quite spacious and has plenty of seating, so it can accommodate a large number of guests without feeling overly cramped.

The only area that felt inconsistent was the service. It wasn’t that the staff were rude, but the level of attentiveness varied quite a bit. The gentleman with glasses was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always seemed to be on top of everything. He really stood out and made us feel welcomed. On the other hand, the older lady seemed less engaged and gave the impression that she didn’t really want to be there. She still provided the necessary service, but her demeanor made us feel like we were bothering her if we needed anything, so naturally, we found ourselves waiting for the gentleman with glasses instead.

Overall, the food is what makes this place worth visiting. The seolleongtang is comforting and authentic, the homemade-style kimchi and radish are a great touch, and that seafood pancake is something I would definitely order again. With a little more consistency in the service, this could be an even stronger experience.“

“This place is a hidden gem! Got the pork trotters & pork belly combo to share between three and were really impressed by the quality of the meat! It was not oily at all and was perfectly supple and tender. The waitress was very nice and would offer to refill our appetizers without us asking.“

“Picked up dumplings and a bowl from the truck today in Redmond. Delicious!! I can’t wait to try more.“

“Delicious food and wonderful service. I got the k-bbq beef bulgolgi burger and it was fantastic! The lady working there was so friendly, attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend the food. Also it's very clean inside and kept up well. The music was pleasant and not distracting from our conversation.“

“Nicely decorated fun place, good service. AMAZING spicy chicken teriyaki! They also have brown rice as an option which I appreciate very much. I am looking forward to trying more of the menu options, especially the Korean dishes... But the teriyaki is so great, I haven't been able to bring myself to order anything else (yet). The owners clearly care about providing high quality consistent and TASTY food!“

“I bought about 10 different things from here, 3 kinds of kimchi and 7 other side dishes and they're all really really good! The veggies are very fresh and perfectly seasoned. I'm not Korean but I've had my fair share of Korean food and I've made my own kimchi for years and a lot of side dishes and entrees as well. But these are so much better than the hundreds of recipes I've tried. She gave me a bonus japchae that also tastes fabulous. I'm so happy I found this place!“

“Great portion size and friendly staff.“

“It was my first time trying grilled intestines like this, and I was honestly a little worried it might have a strong smell, but they cleaned and prepared it really well. When the edges get slightly crispy and charred, it smells amazing, while the inside still stays soft and chewy. It tastes really good with grilled garlic.

The mushrooms were also really good after soaking up all the meat juices from the grill. The yukhoe was easier to eat than I expected too — once mixed with the egg yolk, the texture became really smooth and rich without feeling too heavy.

The atmosphere of the restaurant also felt really cozy, kind of like those small Korean restaurants in K-dramas. The lighting was nice and it wasn’t too loud, so it was a good place to slowly eat and chat with friends at night.“

“Amazing Staff! So Friendly and the food! Off the Charts!!“

“If you have not tried this gem, you need to. Not only is it well priced but it is super filling and a great experience. The employees are super nice and helpful and there are so many things to try. I got the half cheese half hotdog covered in potatoes. It was a full meal on a stick!!! I will be going back!“

“Wonderful food and very quick!“

“I visited this food court specifically for its unique bowl shape. However, it exceeded my expectations. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the noodles were delicious. There were also large chunks of meat and seafood. I’ll definitely be back!“

“I don’t usually review places, but this is some of the best food I’ve had in the greater Seattle area. I got the Huli Huli wrap with grilled chicken, and it was incredibly tender and marinated beautifully. Also tried a bite of my friend’s crispy chicken wrap and loved that as well. Staff was super friendly and offered to fill up our bike bottles. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Modoo is hands down the best Korean restaurant in town! The food is consistently delicious, authentic, and beautifully prepared. Every dish we’ve tried has been outstanding.

What really sets this place apart is the service. Every waiter and waitress is incredibly helpful, friendly, and genuinely considerate. They always make us feel welcome and go out of their way to ensure we have a great dining experience.

The combination of amazing food, warm hospitality, and a welcoming atmosphere keeps us coming back. Highly recommended to anyone looking for excellent Korean food!“

“Super friendly staff, cosy atmosphere and amazing food. 11/10, I would bring all my friends here :))“

“The Seoul Hot Tenders are great, though they are more like Nashville chicken, similar to Dave's Hot Chicken. The burgers are great too, juicy and well sauced/seasoned. However, they are not always consistent; sometimes you would either get dry or skimpy ones.

One thing I really want to mention is that they really are penny-pinching with the amount of sauce they give, so I always need to get an extra. I wish they were more generous, as the sauce is essential with the tenders. Plus, they also occasionally forget the sauces for takeout or delivery, so be aware. They will give you a refund for the sauces if you paid for the extras, but I still would not like this to happen.“

“Comforting bone broth and generously filled dumplings. From my experience, Korean speciality restaurants only serve banchan that directly compliments the speciality...and their kimchi never disappoints. I love ordering from here whenever I feel under the weather or I'm homesick.“

“Always exceptional food and service! At least a monthly visit. if not more. Clean and generous portions.“

“A very solid place for good traditional Korean soups. I had the spicy beef soup and was very happy. The place is not trendy and looked to attract a very local crowd. Prices were inline with other Korean restaurants. I can't wait to go back and try some of the other soup selections.“

“I just came to Seattle for vacation and was suddenly in mood for good chicken teriyaki. I searched and found this store and drove 15 miles. Oh my god. It’s a gem. Really this is probably one of the top most teriyaki I ever had. I own restaurant and I a am foodie. I guarantee this quality of just a simple teriyaki is not easy to get in top class sushi joints also. Humble setup and awesome food. Even the tempura and roll was good too. The boba tea wasn’t that great but who cares.“

“Super clean restaurant and quick service! Most important of all, the food is phenomenal! Single best katsu curry in Lynnwood.“

“Picked up dumplings and a bowl from the truck today in Redmond. Delicious!! I can’t wait to try more.“

“best meal while in Seattle area.“

“Ommmmmmmggggg first time here and the place is amazing 👏🏾. Love the vibe, yanki to the core. But I was hurt 😞 to see the cheese katsu gone, I definitely would return just to see it back on the menu. 10/10“

“HUGE PORTION, AFFORDABLE PRICE. I usually get combo B, black bean noodles with sweet n sour pork. Noodles is so good with the sauce!! Pork is crispy but the sauce a bit too sweet. Only 1 lady work in the front but she is very friendly. Hard to find a cheap place like this“

“AMAZING! This is some of the best Korean food I have had and maybe some of the best I’ve ever had. I got the Japchae-bap and literally texted all my friends with pictures. It’s so delicious. Don’t pay attention to the negative comments, they are just wrong.“

“Unassuming and tucked inside a korean grocery stores food court, cho dang tofu had some surprisingly fantastic food that comes with your personal stone pot rice and banchan that tasted fresh and high quality. The kimchi tofu soup was a standout with its rich aged kimchi flavor, a rarity even in the most authentic korean restaurants.“

“Good little place to drop in if you're craving Korean. Side dishes were lovely and refilled often and the food we ordered was authentic and tasty. Luckily it wasnt busy when we went and they seated our large-ish party of 7 immediately. Nice little hidden gem.“

“This so the third Stone restaurant we’ve tried in the area. Great food at all locations. The menus are different depending on which one you go to. This one seems to have more traditional dishes but all flavorful, well cooked and good portions. The seafood pancake was the best one I’ve tried, though the dipping sauce was kinda plain.“

“The best value in Shoreline — lots of banchan, fried chicken and dumplings on the tteokbokki on the buffet. The most unique item they have for the $35 dinner ayce is this marinated squid which comes out slightly sweet but smoky on the grill.

No pictures because I was too busy enjoying myself and the food!“

“This is a cute small little Korean place with high quality food with good proportions. I shared a beef teriyaki box with my 15 and 7 year old girls and we left full. The owner, Mrs Young, was extremely sweet and very hospitable. The food came out in to go boxes and was nicely prepared. Looking forward to another meal here.“

“Fantastic quality and portion sizes. Some of the best chicken and beef Teryaki I’ve had. It’s incredibly fresh with a smokiness and you can tell the owners really care about the taste of their food. Nice people as well. My go to spot from now on.“

“amazing food, fantastic service! taste explosion of goodness! a MUST visit place!“

“Perfectly okay Korean restaurant. Amongst all the dishes I ordered what stands out most is Grilled mackerels. They serve 3 pieces instead of usual two and looks like there were pan fried which is hard to replicate at home. They serve tons of banchans but in my opinion it is a waste and they should just focus on a few good banchans.“

“If you're looking for a food court style meal, this is not it. But, if you want food like there is a Korean grandma in the back making you what she'd make for her own family, you've found it!

I've been going here for years. It is almost required when I go to H mart. I love all of their soft tofu soups. Treat yourself and get the purple rice!“

“Best Chinese food in Lynwood. Jajjang mein is very delicious, rich in sauce. Dumpling is very tasteful, both are reasonable price. I will recommended to all my friend“

“Picked up dumplings and a bowl from the truck today in Redmond. Delicious!! I can’t wait to try more.“

“Chicken Fried Rice and Chicken Teriyaki“

“Being Korean-American I always crave authentic and great Korean food. This restaurant was introduced to me by my Mom. We go here almost weekly and I always look forward to. The Korean food here is authentic, flavorful, and so good! We normally order fish egg soup, fried fish, and spicy squid. The banchan is also delicious. The service is great too! I can’t wait to eat here again soon! Try it out for yourself!“

“Very friendly receptionist that had to misfortune of dealing with how clueless I was lol but handled with professionalism and courtesy. Walked me through the menu and was very nice. Order the beef bulgogi over rice and it was such a huge portion and super tasty!“

“Their Teriyaki is amazing 😘💃“

“The Mongolian Beef is so good, and even better with kimchi 😊 The portion size is generous for the price. One order of the Mongolian Beef is 2 servings for me. This is a great little teriyaki & wok place in Edmonds. Don't forget to order a side of kimchi with your meal. It:s a super food which actually tastes good and is good for your health too. Enjoy!!“
