The restaurant itself is very clean, and the decor is beautiful, creating such a nice atmosphere for dining. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great Korean BBQ spot!“

“We come here for bulgogi & yakisoba a lot, it’s my husbands and kids favorite! We got bimpap and musubi today and it was delicious. The owner saw our girls and gave them a free yogurt drink. She was super sweet, as was the staff there. 10/10 recommend!“

“Amazing desert Taiyaki and ice cream with Taiyaki shell. It's located in a corner with long countertop right across bath and body works. Taiyaki takes about 8 min to make so be prepared to wait, warm bites are the best. Free ice cream toppings upon serving located at the end of the countertop.“

“delicious! the chicken was a bit tough, but i enjoyed the flavor and the overall selection of pickled radish and different flavors! working at a korean restaurant myself, this helped me understand korean street food cuisine better 💗💗💗“

“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!“

“The owner and staff are wonderfully kind and welcoming to all, making everyone feel at home right away. The atmosphere is both cute and lively, with a fun vibe that makes it perfect for a casual outing. The menu is diverse and thoughtfully crafted—everything is beautifully plated, fresh, and made from scratch. It’s also an excellent spot for those with food allergies or intolerances, as they offer great options to accommodate different needs. The drinks are as beautiful as they are fun, and it’s the perfect place to stop before a ball game or concert (which is exactly what we did). We didn’t have time for a full meal this visit, but we’ll absolutely be back next time we’re in Pioneer Square. Highly recommend! I’d also love to try one of their cooking classes or ticketed events in the future.“

“It was so much fun❤️ The bartender played a game called “King’s Game” with us and it made our night so much fun! If you want to have a fun night too, ask Jin about it. They prepared Halloween decorations and it really got us excited. The strawberry daiquiris we ordered at the bar was delicious and really got us into the Halloween vibes. We’ll be back soon.“

“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!“

“Really fun place at the gas station! Very nice people!“

“Large portions of the most buttery steaks and pork we have ever had. Real Japanese A5 wagyu grilled for you on the table.“

“Great social time & attentive staff“

“I went in semi naive to what was on the menu. Nothing stands out. You order at the counter. Understand that the dishes are larger to feed 2-3 people and their are no sides. Meaning if you like rice with your Asian cuisine it will be extra. Not realizing the size of the dishes I ordered 5 things and 2 sodas and a beer and 2 sides of rice which are small 1 person small and I spent with tip close to 140$+
It is in a strip mall so this is not meant to be fancy. Think small cafeteria style. Of the dishes the on that stood out for me was the chili shrimp. Otherwise pretty generic stuff. Beef had a diffrent texture to it that didn't suit me well. But if your into Asian cuisine make your own opinion. I more then likely won't go back. Quality of food for the money not a win for me.“

“first time trying one and did the rib eye bowl with the yum yum sauce and tried the Kimchi cucumber. I can't stop thinking about it, it was so good, I want to more!!“

“If you value great presentation and love food that looks as good as it tastes, Ahram is calling your name. This contemporary mom-and-pop restaurant is the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal.

The lunch boxes are beautifully crafted, with sushi neatly arranged in rows and each side dish nestled in its own cozy compartment. Every bite is a delight on its own, and together they create a harmonious symphony of flavors.

And the complementary soup was a nice touch as we are new to ordering from their menus“

“This is my go-to spot for a working lunch. Absolutely love their food! The banchans are top notch, packed with flavor and always feel like a treat. I easily get two meals out of one bowl. Every dish hits the spot - customizable, consistently delicious and satisfying. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a flavorful, reliable Korean meal. The service is fast and the staff is courteous.“

“Trying to eat lunch outside this Wells Fargo building is Seattle which houses several businesses but several employees smoking next to the facility that makes for a poor eating experience.

Also, could use more outside seating (some with umbrellas).“

“So i want to eat korean food after an afternoon of walking around and randomly i decided to go to this resto, i think i am really hungry but i ordered bibimbap, chicken wings, seafood pancake, and kimchi jjigae. With beer of course. The ahjumma must be surprised that i ordered a lot 🤣. The owner is korean so this is a legit place. Then when i can't finish them all i ordered to go box and maybe the server man noticed i didn't get up after paying so he gave me a corn tea. To help with digestion,, but hey it worked. Thank you to the staff, i wish i can visit them again.. when i come back,,,“

“Way exceeded expectations. I used to own a Korean restaurant, pretty picky. AYCE is the move. Kimchi is not great but doesn’t matter. Everything else is 👏👏👏. Be patient with servers. Every restaurant is understaffed and these kids are hustling their butts off. Tip big.“

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

“Wow what a hidden gem of West Seattle. The portions are great; the pricing is the best you can ask for. Wow, the flavor is incredible. They have a rotating menu so there's always something great to eat.

10/10 recommend

Went back the next day to try new things. I stand by everything previously mentioned“

“I am still trying out all of the restaurants around my job and this place caught my eye. I love the small kitchen aesthetic, it reminds me of living in Asia. I ordered a nigiri roll and beef teriyaki. The roll was fine but the beef was a bit dry and not my favorite meal. I would revisit and try something else but it was just ok.“

“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.“

“The food was excellent!! I had the fish sandwich and my brother had the pork katsu sandwich…very very good. The fries are not good, they are the fresh ones like in n out, so if you like those then I guess you will like these. Mac salad was very very very good and we also had a malasada. The malasada was not great, I would skip it.
The views are maybe the best of the Seattle skyline you will get…there is also a water ferry dock that will take you to downtown I believe. There is also a place to rent kayaks and paddle boards.“

“The friendly staff made the meal very enjoyable. We had baby back ribs, wagyu beef, cuddly kale, beef tartare and a bottle of soju. The beef tartare was flavored with sesame oil and tasted very Korean influenced. The duck fried rice was also great! Overall lovely and delicious! The only downside is that you need to walk through the hotel lobby and upstairs to get to the restrooms.“

“This is the fastest service for lunch in downtown Seattle. They have delicious food (my favorite is the Radical bowl, with raw salmon and tuna), a variety of options for everyone, and the owners and staff are wonderful. They're so kind and friendly.

The food is always fresh and delicious. I've been going here for 5 years, and the quality has always been good and hasn't changed.“

“This place has amazing, succulent chicken (thighs!), tasty sauces, and a bunch of other great-looking items on the menu. Location is awesome too, on the walk from stadiums to transit, next to Trinity nightclub, right in Pioneer Square. This place should take off!“

“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.“

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

“I haven't been to Dona Queen in a long time and after coming today, I really regret it. What a great local spot for donuts, Korean plates and croissant breakfast sandwiches. I had a apple fritter and coffee and both were delicious 😋.
Please 🙏 make sure to support this local business. If it is picking up dozens of donuts for meetings, parties or even just a couple of donuts for yourself, this us a MUST destination.
PS, say hello to Kim who works the front counter. He is such a pleasure to meet and talk with. You can't go wrong at Dona Queens.“

“hubby and I were in from Indy and we had bacon burger and Hawaiian burger. pretty tasty.“

“Nice small place with fresh Korean food. My first experience with seafood pancake and I liked it. Flounder was tasteless and overall I was expected ore spice taste of everything. Bulgogi ribs was very good!Still, I like my experience here, will be back soon!“

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

“If you’re craving bold flavors and comforting Korean classics, this restaurant is an absolute standout. Every dish feels like it’s made with genuine care—rich broths, perfectly balanced seasonings nothing too salty, and fresh ingredients that speak for themselves.

The kimchi hits that ideal mix of spicy, tangy, and deeply fermented goodness. Their short ribs is tender and marinated to perfection, melting in your mouth with every bite. The dishes arrive vibrant and beautifully arranged, and once mixed, it becomes a harmony of textures and flavors that’s simply addictive. And don’t skip the banchan—each small dish brings its own personality and rounds out the meal in a way that feels both generous and authentic. Could not decide which one was my favorite! Out of all Korean restaurants ive ever been too this one won me over just with the banchan! The japchae was also hands down best of all time.

Service is was fast, making the whole dining experience even better. We did have reservations, the parking lot and restaurant was booming at 6:30 PM on a Saturday night. Be sure to arrive a bit early if going during dinner time and prepare to fight for a spot or two or circle around a few times. But honestly, once you taste the food, you’ll realize it’s more than worth the effort.“

“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.“

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

“I've passed this restaurant on the way to work every day for MONTHS, telling myself I'm going to stop by one day. That day was today and I could not be more pleased. Definitely recommend the chicken of course, the mandu (fried dumplings), and the spring rolls. For drinks definitely try the Honey Citron Tea; AH-mazing! I was so upset for not coming in sooner but I will definitely be back. Customer service was top tier!“

“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've eaten here 2x in a week! The food portions were decent and taste was good to. Can order online and they're pretty fast!! We ordered pho, chicken teriyaki (2) chicken teriyaki & shrimp, chicken & rice bowl and bulgogi fries! Each plate under 20 bucks! Gyzoza and egg rolls on side - price was under $130.00 for everything!“

“So good so good so good so good“

“I Highlight recommend this place. I tried their Beef Bibimbap and it was really authentic and delicious. Don't underestimate the simple look of the small restaurant. They are giving a very good quality/price ratio.“

“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!“

“The food is solid and the staff were friendly and attentive. I've been to a few KBQ places now and I did have some things that could have made the experience much better. First the grill was turned too high most of the meal. They did turn it down at one point but too low, then back up again. The marinated meats were good but the regular meat was pretty plain. Not high enough quality to eat with minimal seasoning. This was a birthday celebration so I was hoping it would be a bit better, but it was definitely not bad. We liked the variety and endless banchan.“

“I definitely like it 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻“

“Five stars just for having a website with a menu with photos, descriptions, and prices. I went in and knew exactly what I wanted to order. I got a 2 slider combo ($13 as of October, 2025) with kālua pork and pocket tots. The sliders were delicious, the kālua pork was tender and the signature slaw was fresh and flavorful.“

“Cute store. I originally wanted some donut but changed my mind when I saw they have corndog. I chose a classic half cheese half sausage.

The corndog was made fresh on order so I had to wait a little bit for it to be ready. Sause was spicy mayo cuz it was said to be best seller but to be honest I would have wanted something a little bit sweeter, but that was just personal preference. The corndog was crunchy enough for me, good cheese pull, decent sausage. Loveddd the dough it was good hehe.“

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

“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.“

“One of my preferred locations for delicious Chinese food. I wanted to post a food pic but it looked so good I couldn't stop. Definitely worth a return trip. Prices were average for the menu. Food is like a restaurant in Louisville I loved.“

“Marination catered our wedding rehearsal dinner and we couldn’t be happier! They were so easy to work with, arrived right on time, and the food was fantastic. We had so many compliments from our guests, and their catering options made planning simple and stress-free. Highly recommend!“
