50 Best Korean Restaurants near Vancouver

“Sooo delicious!!! Have gotten the Korean fried chicken as takeout before and that was good but having their food hot and ready was amazing. Their bibimbap was incredible and my friend loved her bulgogi. I was wanting comforting food and I got it!“

“after a long wait of 20 minutes, we got a table to celebrate SVD, we ordered food and we were really hungry, after 20 minutes of nobody coming by or the server even asking if we got anything, a guy from the kitchen comes to ask if we got our food, I asked him to cancel our order, wich by the way was not even started! The organization of this place is terrible and the customer service is worthless, don't waste your time. Unless you want your night out ruined by a bad restaurant“

“Very delicious food, the host is very nice and hospitable! :)“

“Love the food it’s our once a month go to place“

“Good food, service, atmosphere. The peanut sauce is the perfect temperature.“

“Great food, beautiful ambiance and amazing service. Mikala was a very good and kind server. Dining in remembrance of a dear friend was made so special by all of the people at Kenjis. Thank you Kenji’s GM, Mikala and the staff! You made it a memory we will never forget!“

“Definitely a place to visit 🤎 The gyoza were nice, full and juicy. The Spicy Pork and Kung Pao Chicken were savory and the sauce was delicious!! The yakisoba and rice were both fantastic! 😋 While we were dining, Sam, the manager came out to greet us.. very friendly and was very kind and appreciative. Another awesome thing about this place is the excellent service and clean tables!! Reasonable prices as well! The menu has so many options, I look forward to going back and trying other menu items. By far one of the best teriyaki places I have eaten at anywhere. 🤎“

“From our nine year old: Amazing service and great mocktails! We went during the make your own Gimbap and it was absolutely amazing!!“

“It seemed like a small family owned restaurant with authentic korean home cooked meal. I ordered the pork fried gyoza & spicy soondubu soup which came with japchae (glass noodle salad) and rice. Their 'spicy' is a level 7 and the added 'special pork' in the soondubu was the highlight of the dinner.
The place is small, maybe max capacity 20 and the servers was hospitable.

I'd recommend this place for the flavor & its simplicity when you want to grab a peaceful bite on a busy day!“

“I haven't been in person just yet, but have ordered from this place many times. Delicious gluten-free fried chicken every single time! Although I can't seem to find any info on if the other things are gf as well. Mac n cheese? Gravy? The sando? Would love to know.“

“The food was fantastic! I had the ganh-jang steak (coulette steak topped with mint butter served with rice over seasonal vegetables) and my husband had the maneul ox-bone soup and both meals were absolutely delicious. I enjoyed the cozy, casual atmosphere and the person who served us was super sweet.“

“Just had the Bulgogi with pot stickers and a side of kimchi. Amazingly delicious! I would highly recommend Korean twist. I will be back.“

“I was trying to go to Tomo Ramen next door, but they were slammed. I saw the sign for Mokdong and decided to give it a try. I ordered the gyoza, bacon kimbap, pork katsu, and mango hard tea. The food was so delicious that I only got a pic of my drink, and the portions were so generous that I had plenty of leftovers. All the dishes came with pickled veggies and dressed salads/ garnish. It might be the best pork katsu I’ve had in the city, and the employees were kind and attentive. Absolutely recommend, you may miss it by just walking by!“

“Incredible. The food was delicious and unexpected, the service was TOP TIER (Thank you Kamile!) and the attention to detail was so welcoming. We loved the private room, the chef's tasting menu, and the KARAOKE- what a wild addition that really brought us closer together as a group. HUGE glowing recommendation from us- we'll be coming back for more.“

“My son and I got the Korean fried chicken bentos. This is some of the best Korean fried chicken I’ve had in the NW. I loved the thin strips of seasoned scallion they added to my bento. And my son and I loved the red bean rice. It reminded me of my mom’s homemade red bean rice. I loved the warm, clean indoor dining area. I will be back to eat here again!“

“When I visit Portland, I make a point of dining at the so‑called must‑try restaurants, but most of them end up being disappointing. However, this place—located on the second floor of a Korean market—is very simple yet surprisingly delicious. Whenever I go to G Mart to pick up sale items, I usually stop here for a meal.
The food here is much better than at Jeju, Hanok, or other Korean restaurants. Another advantage is that after finishing your meal, you can conveniently do your grocery shopping right downstairs. The prices are reasonable, and most of the menu items taste excellent. This is definitely a place I recommend.“

“Amazing Korea food with low pricing. Very generous with appetizer free serving, there’s even crab that’s so tasty! Rice seems also free to serve, but comes with very pleasant steam bowl. Bibimbap is good and the portion is quite big! I love your Kalbi that’s wonderful. I’ll need to come back for it!!“

“it is in the heart of downtown a couple blocks from Powell Books in the beginning of the park block the most important it is clean and it's a good diversity of food cart they even have a double decker bus that serve coffee in the morning and beer and wine in the evening plenty of seating outside looking at the park block.“

“On top of the food being amazing, if you eat-in, they serve you, and the food is plated in a really nice way! The employees we interacted with were so nice!!! (Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures of the food/presentation, we were too busy shoving the delicious food in our faces) but the food was amazing, chicken was crispy and the soy garlic flavor was very pleasant, fries were thick and crispy, and the sauces were a good match. Will definitely be returning!“

“I just visited JCD BBQ with a group of three friends, and we were absolutely blown away! From the moment we walked in, the place was spotless and inviting. The atmosphere is super clean and comfortable, which is always a huge plus for a K-BBQ spot.

​The food was outstanding—everything came out tasty, fresh, and incredibly filling. We left completely satisfied (and maybe a little too full!).

​But what really made the night special was the service. The staff were all exceptional, but I have to give a massive shout-out to Danny (Clark). He went absolutely above and beyond for our table. He was hilarious, kept the energy up, and made sure we had everything we needed before we even had to ask.

​Danny is definitely part of the reason we’ll be coming back soon. If you’re looking for great food and even better service, this is the place to go!

From your friend Big Mo“

“Love this fusion Korean food!“

“This place is has totally won me over. Would have taken a picture of the food but I ate it ALL immediately! The wings steal the show; large, juicy, fried to perfection and I loved that they served the mala sauce on the side for dipping! Sweet, spicy, garlicky perfection. The dumplings and egg rolls were also phenomenal. Everything tastes like it’s made with love, do not pass up this food cart💜“

“I had the bulgogi rice bowl and WOW it was delicious! reasonably priced and nice staff. will definitely go again and highly recommend this place to others!“

“The Bulgogi + Dukuhbee Noodle is small but MIGHTY!!! Don’t believe me, go try it for yourself and see you won’t be disappointed. There food is amazing, full of flavor, and presented beautifully. The menu can be hard to make sense of, but once you get to the kiosk it becomes easy. The kiosk is very user friendly. The customer service was fantastic, the gentlemen that served us and was attending to the other guests was extremely kind and friendly. He made our visit that much better.

For the first visit I would recommend mild to no spicy, not because they can be real spicy, but so you can really taste the fresh noodles. We got 1 Yum(appetizer), 2 Dukuhbee(hand pulled) Noodle dishes. The yum was beef Mandoo. It was crispy and crunchy. It had a delicious sweet sauce drizzled over them. My friend got the Pork Dukuhbee mild spicy. Basically non-spicy BUT you could really taste the noodles. The pork was soft, rich, and satisfying. Everything blended well together. I got the Kimchi & bacon Dukuhbee medium spicy. Mine wasn’t really spicy but because of the blend of spice, saltiness from the bacon, and kimchi I didn’t get the full taste of the noodles like my friend did. I’m not disappointed with my choice, I’m just giving you a heads up in case you venture out like I did. Heads up they do put a hefty serving of cheese on top of the noodles that I mixed in. Next time I’d ask for less cheese. If you choose the kimchi & bacon, either you have to be a Kimchi person or be adventurous with your entrees.

Parking can be meh! We got SUPER lucky and got a spot right in front. Either way it’s doable, just park down a side street and walk there. We will definitely be back, there’s more things in the menu we want to try! Hope you enjoy them.“

“soooo good!! My favorites are the brisket and beef bulgogi. The steamed egg is also amazing. Like a tiny souffle! various condiments... i think next time I'll do a la carte of the meat portions. mostly because after two rounds of AYCE I'm overstuffed and no taking leftovers... can't wait to go back!“

“your restaurant have 5 start from me..the food is delicious. fresh and healthy.“

“Food is amazing! I got 3 tacos - spicy pork, bulgogi beef, and teriyaki chicken. All were delicious, but the spicy pork and bulgogi beef were my favorites. Would definitely recommend and stop here again when visiting Portland!“

“Have the Korean Corn dog and the fried chicken last night. Both were fantastic. The corn dog was big and crunchy with sweet & spicy sauce. Chicken was flavorful and crunchy too. Will be back“

“This place used to be everywhere in Portland! Their bulgogi burritos and tacos are super interesting and fun with the kimchi.

Today I tried their bulgogi cheese steak and it was super flavorful and interesting..... Just like all their other offerings.“

“Despite being extremely busy on Superb Ow day, our online order was ready right on time. Even better, it was delicious!!! crispy, sticky, spicy and amazing“

“It’s a nice Korean restaurant in a not very nice area 😂 but the food was top tier! We ordered bulgogi and ox bone soup they tasted delicious! The server was very nice even tho she’s on her own deal with all the tables but she worked really really hard“

“The jackfruit plate is fire!!“

“Great service and delicious food!“

“I had the bulgogi rice bowl and WOW it was delicious! reasonably priced and nice staff. will definitely go again and highly recommend this place to others!“

“Best lollipop chicken and garlic noodles in town!! Great friendly owners :)“

“Wonderful spot for a late night bite! Came here with a friend after being out seeing music, we got bah mi to eat in and then I also got a vegetable and rice dish to take home. We're both vegetarian; there's a decent selection and what we had was all super delicious. The sweet potato fries that come with the sandwich were some of the best I've ever had (and I'm picky about my sweet potato fries).

Service was friendly, prompt, and accommodating. Environment is nice but still comfortable and casual enough to be at ease. There's 4 TVs playing different things, felt a bit brain rot over stimulation-u, but they were all muted so it wasn't intrusive.

Great place!“

“family friendly and a beautiful environment ❤️ Just love this place“

“Du’s is my favorite! I’m from out of town and look forward to it every time I visit PDX. Delicious food, giant portions, and it’s that rare place every person in my family loves without exception.“

“Food was absolutely delicious and the owner and staff were so friendly. We had teriyaki chicken, orange chicken and pot stickers. Everything was so flavorful and scrumptious! Can’t wait to come back for more. Thank you Rising Sun! God bless you all!“

“By far and away, my most favorite eatery in Portland. Fried rice spam bowl is my favorite!! But their Kahlua pig and Shoyu chicken are top notch too. Friendly staff, and safe space. Mahalo Plenty.“

“We went there just for the Ramen. I ordered the Braised Chicken Ramen and it was delicious! My husband ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen and was a little disappointed that there wasn't more pork belly in it. The staff were friendly and it is a very cute little restaurant.“

“This place is such a hidden gem! It’s like a build-your-own hotpot, and every bite is packed with incredible flavor. Tucked away in the Northwest neighborhood, it definitely deserves way more recognition. It may be counter service, but the care and attention they give you feels like full table service. And trust me—this praise is coming from an Asian foodie. Game on.“

“I recently visited Fomo Chicken, and I'm happy to say that the food has really improved over the years. The soy garlic fried chicken I had was delicious, and I appreciated the amount food I got for my money. While the customer service was okay, it was the food that stole the show. The flavor of the fried chicken was spot on, and it's clear that they've made strides in providing a better dining experience. If you're a fan of soy garlic fried chicken, this place is definitely worth a visit. Overall, a tasty and satisfying meal!“

“Always fresh and yum!“

“Absolutely delicious! Chicken is super juicy and the wings are nice and crunchy! 🤩

Will definitely come again.

We had 3 flavors. A small size is 8 wings, but theyre huge..
*Spicy galbi
*Honey garlic *Secret sauce

We also tried the kimchi pasta, which was creamy and spicy. It was also full of chicken. The fries also seemed to be battered fried so they are also extra crispy.

This is our new favorite wing spot 🤤“

“Our large party was sat next to the window and front door, it was extremely disturbing because we kept getting hit with the cold air every time the door open. I asked if we can move to another section of the table and the staff kindly accommodated it! Can we fix the front door situation? Overall, amazing food, experience is always wonderful and staff was great. Gorgeous restaurant, always. Thank you!“

“I am starting to try out food around the PSU campus. I chose Rice Junkies because of the price. I can say I'm not disappointed. I decided to try the Mexican bowl, as it seemed similar to what I'd get at Chipotle. I feel like there is much more food, without the added cost of guacamole, and the cheese is melted! I may have found a good go-to place for food!

One thing is that is is a SMALL place, but there is outside seating. It is definitely more of a to go eatery than sit-in.“

“Love the food it’s our once a month go to place“

“Decent price for all you can eat Korean BBQ; prices range per package with the main difference being seafood and offal. You get frozen or marinated meats you cook on a hot grill. There are also entrees you can order, but that’s not what you come here for unless you are pressed for time.“

“I pass by here all the time but decided to try it today. I got coffee with boba and a donut and it was $10. Their donut flavors are super interesting, I got Reese's cheesecake and it was great. I like that the donut wasn't iced AND frosted so it wasn't too sweet, the perfect amount of chewy.

I see some reviews about the service but the guy at the counter was polite and prompt, no complaints at all. They also have Korean style corn dogs I want to try next time, I'll definitely be back!“
