45 Best Korean Restaurants near Vancouver

“The food is amazing!!!! I rated 5 stars for food, 5 stars for service, and 4 for atmosphere. Only reason for that is because the music was super static and the tvs were glitching. Probably slow connection. Other than that,

THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS! And you Hawaii folks, they have meat jun! Kimchis best kimchi I’ve ever had! The saba was cooked to perfection, yukgajung was delicious, bulgogi was a lil sweet, decent size portions.

Will be back. Thank you!“

“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.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“This is it folks. Best Korean in the area, probably in all of Portland and that extends to Beaverton where there are many excellent Korean spots. Best Soonduboo I’ve had. Family run. Reasonably priced. Excellent service. 11/10 recommend, come support these hard working folks.“

“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!“

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

“My family and I had a delicious Korean dinner at JEJU! We were a big party and ordered the whole menu. In particular, the kanpachi collars, crudo, steak, and chicken wings were phenomenal! The staff were so kind, going out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed in a friendly manner. The cocktails were also excellent. I loved the Soju - the smoothest I have ever had. Overall, it was very special meal and we will not forget it. I highly recommend for your taste buds and for a fun experience!“

“My go to spot for chicken wings they're 2nd to none!

My favorite order is Soy Garlic Chicken wings, Pot stickers and potato wedges!

Give them a try and This will also be your go to spot!

I tried the rest it's your turn to try to the Best!“

“A great casual Korean spot with good prices, portions, and flavors. Even though the restaurant name is Mokdong Gimbap, we tried two main dishes: pork cutlet and seafood soon-tofu. I’ve been craving the style of pork cutlet I used to have in Korea, and it was exactly what we were hoping for—so good! While we were enjoying that, the seafood soon-tofu came out, and it was perfectly seasoned, not bland or off at all. We got the medium spice level, which had a nice kick—perfect if you like real Korean spiciness. The seafood in the soon-tofu was fresh and plenty, and the side dishes were authentic and tasted homemade. The owner was super friendly, which made the whole experience even better. Next time, I’ll definitely try their Gimbap!“

“First time here tonight for my mom’s birthday/ this place is so good, we are going to make it our go to place for Korean bbq from now on! First reason we love this place is because we finally found a Korean bbq place that’s not all you can eat! We have small children and elderly parents who don’t eat a lot- so it’s a huge plus. Second one is this place feels super new and clean , even the bathrooms were clean and smell good. Last but not least, staff were super friendly - everyone who served us was really nice and kind. Their side dishes were really generous and they offered to replenish more than once. Price was more than reasonable. Yes we are definitely coming back!“

“Love this fusion Korean food!“

“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!“

“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.“

“There are some of the best fried chicken in America. The beer in the cool frozen glass was the best beer I've ever had.

Above all, it's even better to have kind employees and a busy and wonderful president.

The reason why the boss is busy this is the third branch of Chimcking.
So when you come here, make sure you check “Martin Luther King Jr”.“

“We can’t wait to go back and try more. I almost didn’t even want to write this review because I want this place to remain a hidden gem but it’s too good not to spread the word.

Hidden upstairs in a Korean grocery store, the food was authentic and the atmosphere too. We arrived at 8:10pm on a Friday and the lady made an exception for us as the kitchen closed at 8, although the restaurant stays open till 9. We recommend coming before then.

We tried the bulgogi, the chicken bulgogi, and a kimchi pancake without the pork. Before the food came out, they brought us banchan which we devoured. It was a collection of kimchi, fish cakes, potatoes in sweet soy sauce, pickles radishes, pickles, and broccoli. The kimchi was so good that we asked for more. We couldn’t stop eating everything when it arrived—definitely come here super hungry.

The chicken had a very smokey flavor to it, just a bit of a heads up. I wasn’t expecting that and although it was delicious, it’s not a taste I’m very used to.

We can’t wait to come back and try more. Plus the grocery store had some fascinating items that we want to check out, too.

Also, the sweetest older women were waiting on our tables and ran the house. They were very kind and diligent.“

“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💜“

“The service was amazing! Huge shoutout to the woman working today at 1pm. She was so sweet and was able to balance everything very well. The food was great too! Good portions for a good price. This was my first time. I will definitely come back.“

“Quick and friendly service, delicious food! Our favorite was the kimchi bacon noodles!! I love how cheesy it is 😍. We enjoyed everything we got - beef bibimbap, gimmari, and combo chicken wings. Everything was super flavorful and comforting! Can’t wait to come back 🤍.“

“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“

“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.“

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

“Great service and delicious food!“

“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!“

“The jackfruit plate is fire!!“

“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!“

“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“

“Nice place to go for a later night snack. I ordered the crispy rolls and the chive cakes, yummy.
The service was excellent and the bartender was friendly and accommodating and made me a custom non-alcoholic beverage while I waited for my food:)“

“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.“

“The best lunch spot to bring your toddler! Our toddler loved the little play area and we were seated next to it, so he was able to play while we ordered and waited for our food. The food was super delicious and our toddler loved it too. Definitely would come back again (even without kids) given how delicious and family friendly this place is!“

“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.“

“Highly recommend. Delicious and HUGE bowls of ramen! Pictured is their seafood ramen and it is packed with tons of protein. Price matches what you get compared to other places I’ve been to. Shop interior is small and reminiscent of ramen places I visited in Japan.“

“Always fresh and yum!“

“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.“

“This place is amazing. I just got back from London, Mayfair. And I can say for sure that our of the few restaurants I visited there, none would surpass Jenkins in terms of sensation of taste. Breakfast menus out there are top knotch for sure, but Jenkins is definitely better overall than even Hide. And Hide has 1 Michelin star.

Sidenote, the blueberry creme brulee is simply the best I've had. In my entire life.“

“First time in Portland and the Hyatt House was an excellent choice of hotel for me.The location by the River was relaxing, as well as, the well maintained pool. Very friendly and helpful staff, this hotel has it all, a nice hot breakfast, a Bar, a pool and is in a great location. Would stay again!“

“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!“

“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 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.“
