50 Best Korean Restaurants near Seatac

“Great Burgers! Shakes, Onion rings, Teriyaki. Good people ! We been going there for a few decades.“

“We ordered the Bulgogi, Kalbi and chicken wings, everything was delicious. Even the banchan was so yummy! Service was excellent! Just a perfect little jewel in Kent!“

“Very good soups and best tendon gukbap and super tasty kimchi. Seafood pancakes aren’t as good, but that’s what I get for ordering that at a soup house I guess. Highly recommended! Super busy and we had to wait quite a while for a table but the food came fast once ordered and it was worth the wait. Also, the wait staff was very nice, especially the younger one.“

“Cold spicy noodles (bibim nengmyun), beef soup (sulungtang), and hangover soup (wooguogi hwejang guk) were all very delicious!

Kimchi was on the sweeter side but refreshing to accommodate the soups.

Service was fast and friendly.“

“Amazing place! Food is great and staff is absolutely Top notch great customer service!“

“Food was really good. Only a older couple & family were inside around noon so wasn't busy on a Saturday.

I forgot what my bowl was but it was the chicken teriyaki I believe, while my sister got the beef teriyaki bowl that included an egg. We got drinks, she got a strawberry refresher drink & mine was the berry mix puree with soda which was interestingly good. It's an underrated location, so check it out before it gets busy & popular!“

“I went to dinner with my family here. It’s absolutely amazing experience. We got the beef feast large size. The meat quality is great. The sides are fresh. Their servers are very nice and friendly. Our family are all very satisfied and will for sure come back again!!“

“Ahram is hands-down one of the best Korean restaurants I’ve visited in Washington! The authenticity shines through in every dish. The Yangnyeom Gaejang(spicy crab) was phenomenal—rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. We also tried the Bossam and meat pancake, and every piece of meat was incredibly tender and juicy. The side dishes were fresh, vibrant, and beautifully presented, adding the perfect finishing touch to the meal. Truly a top-notch experience for anyone craving authentic Korean flavors.“

“Seoul Tofu in Kent is such a comforting and reliable spot for Korean food. The tofu is rich, flavorful, and comes out perfectly hot every time. You can really taste the depth of the broth, and the ingredients always feel fresh and well-prepared.
The banchan are generous and delicious, and the portion sizes are very satisfying. Service is friendly and efficient, even when they’re busy, and the restaurant has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to come back. Especially the young man in the front, and as well as the other server.
If you’re craving authentic Korean comfort food—especially soon tofu—this place is a must-visit. One of the best Korean spots in the area!“

“The best in town! Their Jjajangmyunand Jjampong is the best! And the amount for the price… I always roll out of this place! Service is great and the atmosphere is welcoming. Today I picked up some jelly fish salad ?! lol and seafood noodle soup…it was well packed and as always, delicious! I highly recommend this place!“

“the best lunch I've had in a while.“

“Food is great and the service is excellent. We just came back from a long trip so my family was pretty hungry but we remembered the few times we’ve eaten here before and were craving Korean food so glad we stopped here. We will be back for sure.“

“This is my favorite Korean restaurant to eat in Federal Way. I always have to come and eat here when I’m visiting my family. My favorite thing to eat is the Soondae Guk. Also, there Gamjatang is delicious too! Can’t wait to come back and eat here!“

“This is hands down the best Korean-Chinese restaurant I’ve tried in Washington. Everything was delicious, and the flavors were spot on. Highly recommended.

They’re also currently offering a Jajangmyeon buy-one-get-one-free“

“Nice small space with great Korean hybrid food. 5 stars here for the salad medley and fermented pickles.“

“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!“

“Love their KBBQ & service“

“Been coming here for 8 years. This place is consistently good.

My favorites
Cold noodles
Spicy cold noodles
Fried kimchi dumpling
Steam kimchi dumpling
Red bean dumpling.
Bone broth.

My Korean friend says this place has the best cold noodles and Mandoo in Seattle/ king county. I would agree.“

“In a state where Korean food dominates, this place stands out as one of the most delicious spots for Korean BBQ I’ve ever tasted. It’s great for bringing groups of friends or going in solo, fast service yet great in quality and quantity, straight to the point, great food, and great vibes for a great price. 10/10“

“Basic deli. But really good food. I had the pork bowl. Cucumber topping was really good. Everything was as expected. Good lunch bowl for a good price. The surprising find was the rice cakes. A little spicy, a little sweet. Highly recommend those, and I'll definitely go back if nothing more than for those. Nothing fancy but clean. No problem for a lunch stop, but don't expect an atmosphere. I always think it's odd to have to rate a place like this for the atmosphere.“

“Ordered takeout while I shopped around HMart. Service was fast and friendly. I got the N1-Black Bean Noodles w/ beef, options are pork,veggie, beef or seafood. Came with pickled radish. Very good. The flavor is so comforting. Very big portion and decent price! Will be back.“

“My absolute favorite place for bossam!! The variety kimchi that comes with this dish is also amazing!!

It can get pretty crowded on Fridays and weekends. It’s best to come during a weekday to get seats. Their home made rice wine is also so good! I highly recommend this place“

“First time going, had a great experience. So much food, all you can eat for just $40. The Garlic Chicken and Spicy marinated Pork were our top two favorites. But everything we got was great. Got also the Beef brisket (which they give you a lot), the Spicy marinated Shrimp, and the Spicy marinated Chicken. For two people who are hungry, only 4-5 meat dishes needed. They do not let you take any leftovers home unfortunately. Even if you cook it. Also got their fried rice, the Kimchi Soup (really good), and the Cold Noodle dish (not that great, or just not our favorite thing compared to everything else and was unnecessary). It was my husband's first time having Korean BBQ, so was fun and he really enjoyed getting to cook his own meat and he loved everything and how much we got.“

“Went there for lunch and got the short rib combo and dumplings. Loved it and will be going back. Everything tasted fresh. The kimchi pork jjigae was perfect, I was so stuffed I couldn't finish it. The banchan was also super fresh. They were busy but they busted ass getting food out hot. Perfect lunch for someone by themselves. I bought the kimbap for dinner and it was so good, much better than the hmart one. Got to go try their fried chicken next.“

“This location is really unique, located between a massage parlor and a hair salon, this place is like a korean fried chicken joint mixed with a speakeasy. Club-like atmosphere with dim lights and modern music bumpin.
I ordered the fried chicken and it came with 10 pieces and was really solid. Bit expensive, at 22$ but perfect to share.
Friend orders the bulgogi and liked it
Didn’t get any drinks but the soju looked good.
Service is slow
Open till 12 so definitely a good late night spot with drinks and food“

“First time trying Korean style corndog and this place was fantastic! The man was very welcoming and friendly, he also got very
Busy w a rush of orders and was operating by himself but he pulled thru! Our food was hot and fresh and very very good! Give it a try!“

“Underrated Teriyaki and Korean food restaurant with easy take out. Best teriyaki on Rainier and perhaps in town. The only fault that it is closed on Sundays. Quite delicious food options. This is the place you want to go for a delicious meal.“

“This place deserves all the hype! The jalapeno kolache is exactly how they are in Texas, I’m impressed and will definitely be back!

The cashier was very friendly and recommended items to us. Everything looked good!

I noticed that the prices are extremely fair as well.“

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

“A new up coming restaurant in burien just five minutes from the seatac airport and 15 minutes outside of seattle. Its my second time in here now and I got to say each time ive came in here I was met with a warm welcome as if I were greeted by a old friend, the restaurant is very clean with tables and chairs that can fit possibly 20-25 people dining in. The restaurant plays current radio hits which is nice when youre unwinding and waiting for your meal. I ordered the yangyeom chicken and the cheese & herb shake fries as a meal and comes with a drink. The shake fries were 10/10 the fries were crisp and soft to the bite and they did not skip on the portions I had a whole bag of fries I finished in one sitting. Now the chicken was absolutely delicious crisp, crunchy, and tender I could eat it without any sauces but the sauce did add a whole level of flavor truly delicious. Ill be definitely stopping by often for more.“

“the most authentic tasting soondae soup eaten in WA since leaving korea. would've given five stars, but soondae was small unlike in korea, liver slices were a bit stale, and no fresh garlic chives! the k-style katsu was outstanding, BTW.“

“Small Korean banchan market but with a wide selection of dishes ready to eat and frozen. Note: all sizes are large and be prepared to spend some money est. $18 a dish
Lotus root, scallion, cucumber and radish are so good, waiting for the beef soup to thaw 🥰 friendly mom and daughter business“

“Love the place at first , don’t go now. Small portions and prices increase Good bye“

“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.“

“Great food and Staff. I'll definitely be back“

“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 place is truly a hole in the wall, but don’t let that fool you—the food was absolutely delicious and tasted incredibly fresh. We’re so glad we decided to give it a try because it ended up being a great find. You honestly can’t beat the prices for the quality and portion sizes. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re looking for great food without the hype.“

“My favorite pho spot so far. I love that there are vegetables in the soup base in addition to the veggies you can add on your own. Staff is friendly. I would try the steak pho either Korean noodles or glass noodles, both are good. I love extra bean sprouts, jalapeños,and spicy chilli sauce! Expect to pay $15-20 per person“

“Amazing family owned restaurant. The service here is phenomenal and so personable. The food I'd delicious and always prepared so well. This has become a favorite of mine recently. Highly recommend.“

“These mochi donuts were so soft and tasty! I loved the flavors—I got a purple berry donut with fruity pebble sprinkles.“

“Seriously some of the best service Ive ever had in a Korean restaurant! Dakgalbi was spot on with the spice and sweetness balance with a good variety of vegetables, chicken and rice cakes. I really liked my korean pear cocktail and has a great selection of korean beverages. The owner and the young gentleman were both super kind and attentive.

I used to go here 10 years ago in my early 20s and it's been around since I was in grade school. Over time, the place improved greatly with the same cozy ambiance. There's a good reason for their longevity of business.“

“The owners are truly kind, grateful people. The food is fresh- I had a Poke bowl with Salmon and avocado, and it was FULL of good flavor. My kids were crazy about the BBQ Chicken- awesome portions and fantastic sweet/smoky flavor! My wife tried the Yakisoba, and loved all the vegetables. Very solid value for the buck- this is a great place to check out. Glad we made the drive from Woodinville!“

“Great service, delicious, and fun for the whole family! Was super exciting to have Korean Bbq in Kent! Will definitely be going back and highly recommend!“

“I definitely like it 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻“

“All very delectable DIY AYCE (all you can eat) Korean barbecue plus copious refillable sides. Personal faves are the spicy tofu soup and beef spare ribs (shown). Note however the restaurant has recently come under NEW management. The prices are the same but take note they NO longer accept Groupons, which is unfortunate if you had purchased some prior. Perhaps they will offer a grand reopening special if they know what's good for their customer base. Came today to retrieve a hat I had left on my last visit, but 'twas nowhere to be found, possibly lost in the reshuffle. Was told they be closed for a few days circa 1/20/2026 to get things refurbished. Will try them again once the dust settles, and so may you.“

“My favorite restaurant in Washington. I love the owner. I've only been there a few times, but she treats you like she's known you forever. Everything on the menu is good. The pho is great. The burgers are great. The boba tea is great. Sometimes they play extreme sports clips on the wall or stuff like that. It has such a great atmosphere.
I. Love. This. Place.
I would move back here just to be close to this restaurant.“

“Delicious! I could taste quality ingredients and good seasoning, amount was perfect to share with family. Thank you!“

“I had never been to this location before. Staff was so friendly, food was so good! You got to check out the katsu sliders yum! Also dont underestimate the tofu tots and jalapeño sauce. Cant wait to go back and try more food. P.S. bomb happy hour deals“

“Best Teriyaki Spot! Apparently people don’t know what good flavor is. Chicken Thighs are more superior than breast. I’ve been eating teriyaki for 30+ years. . This places has been me and my family spot since moving to Auburn from Seattle 6yrs ago. All I know is the make consistent good food with great portion every time. I love their short rib and katsu combo.

“Was hungry and captured a photo after we’d already dug in - but the bento came with a lot of food. Spicy chicken bento box is huge and great for 2 people. The sauces are delicious and the tempura is perfectly crispy. The chicken teriyaki hits the spot.

A must stop spot post-Costco run!“
