27 Best Korean Restaurants in Sacramento

“This is a small local spot serving Asian dishes. The made to order menu is limited and they offer some premade wrapped to go foods too, but you can buy them and eat in. I had premade kimbap. It was fresh that day and was yummy. The staff and atmosphere of this place makes me want to go back often. Get there early, they close at 2 PM.“

“We came here on a whim since we were driving into the area. I'm so glad that we chose this mom&pop location opposed to the other korean restaurants nearby.The parking situation is a bit awkward, it isn't located in the best area but it's fine as long as you find a spot right in front of the building. Upon arriving, there were only two other parties which indicated that they weren't really busy. We sat down with big appetites, so we were ready to try out different dishes. It seemed like there was just a wife and husband behind the counter and kitchen. It was a very friendly atmosphere and it was almost like being at home.Everything that we ordered was absolutely delicious and filled us up. Next time, I would order the gochujang sauce on the side since it made the wings a bit soggy after a few minutes. There were so many sides that it filled up the entire table. I love how there was unique banchan that I never had before which made the meal taste even better. I would definitely recommend this place!“

“We have been searching for the best banchan (Korean side dishes) and this is our place we finally found it! Each dish is freshly made and different and delicious, just like Mom's! I got the kimchi tofu and kalbi combo , wonderful! We also got the regular bibimbop with the egg cooked well done. The atmosphere is nice and has a great local vibe, the service was wonderful and the food is worth the wait because it is freshly prepared. They do close on earlier perfect for early eaters and the prices are a great value compared to other so called Korean places that don't come near authentic! Love this place!Parking: Plenty of parking“

“Amazing staff! The menu has a wide variety of authentic choices. I’ve had the cold noodles, beef bulgogi, seafood pancake and other items but those are the ones I remember being extremely tasty! As well as the small complementary side dishes they give you while you wait on your food. Definitely a hidden gem!“

“Everything was fantastic. For a party of 6 on a Saturday night right at dinner time, we barely had a wait. Service was quick and attentive, but not lurking or over your shoulder. Food was clearly fresh, well made and very flavorful. The night was a pleasure.Parking: There's plenty of parking, but it will fill up during peak days and times. If you're handicapped, plan ahead...as those spots may fill up fast.“

“Finally got to eat here for the first time! The food is a little pricey but VERY good. Jin is amazing and so sweet! Minus one star for the server who took our order. She asked us if we needed a few min and we said yes; she came back and said "are you ready now? we have a lot of people." like... chill lol. everything else was great!“

“This spot is such a gem. Consistently delicious ingredients, options to make it how you like/need if you have food restrictions. Add all the veggies options, you don't have to choose just one. The ramen broth is top notch, rich in flavorful, steaming hot and changes with the season. Their chicken is really delicious and pork belly has not disappointed anyone who tries it. Cold somen salad and banh mi are both outstanding options!! I tried the fried chicken a few weeks ago and it was awesome. Crispy, juicy, tender chicken!! We are regulars for lunch now and it's been a treat each time!! It is a casual, order at the counter, seat yourself place. Staff are warm, friendly and helpful if you can't decide what to eat. I hear the line for dinner can get long and it doesn't surprise me. It's worth it.“

“Very clean. Friendly staff. Trendy atmosphere. There's only one size for their drink (no need to tell the cashier the size you want). All their drinks are delicious. They sometimes host a special events. I highly recommend DeLuna Dessert Cafe.“

“This place is Fire!! I was a little skeptical when we first walked in because of the size of the dining area. For a few minutes me and my family pondered leaving but I'm happy we decided to stay. The service was quick and the food was mind blowing. I had the House Ramen along with some chicken wings and everything was great. My wife, kids and in-laws were all satisfied with our food.“

“I will most likely change my star rating next time I go.I got the teriyaki chicken and tempura box.Teriyaki chicken just didnt have enough flavor for me. BUT the tempura was amazing!! The asparagus tempura was so so tummy. But so was the broccoli, shrimp and sweet potatoe!!They were serving the sizzling bibimbab plates that smelt amazing!! Cant wait to go back! Service was friendly and quick! I love how busy they were!! Great local spot “

“This Korean BBQ restaurant exceeded all my expectations! The quality of the meat was exceptional, and the variety of cuts offered was impressive. The interactive grilling experience at the table added an extra layer of fun to the dining experience. The banchan (side dishes) were plentiful and delicious, complementing the BBQ perfectly. The atmosphere was lively, and the staff were attentive and knowledgeable, ensuring we had a fantastic meal from start to finish. I can't wait to go back and indulge in more of their mouthwatering offerings“

“The food here is so fresh and perfect for any pallet. Their soups and chicken are amazing and the kimchi is so fresh and light. The staff are so kind and you can tell they take care in their food. Definitely my favorite Korean restaurant in sacramento.“

“Great vibes, my group was lucky to get the same server we had last time we visited.Forgot to take her name but she was very personable and made sure we had everything we needed to have a good time (Keeping us hydrated as we continued to drink.)Food was pretty solid, only complaint is chef just needs to ease up on the salt a bit.“

“5 stars for kalbi jjim, i can see why it's the main star here it's pretty delicious! I tried their haemul kalguksu too which was also good, packed full of mussels, shrimp and has a cute sized crab in it as well. I don't eat shellfish but had to try and enjoyed the noodles. I definitely want to try their other soups here. Enough leftovers to last me 2-3 nights lol. Wang Mandu was also wanging. They were humongous.“

“We came around on a weekend evening, there was no wait at all. We were the only people in there for quite some time but it was nice. The menu was confusing at first but we just asked for more clarification. Ordered the spicy chicken in medium spice and asked for a 10 piece wing. We still ended up getting drums in our order for some reason instead of all wings but it wasn't a big deal. The chicken was very juicy and the skin was crispy and sweet. Very on point for Korean chicken. I kind of wish they had meal sets, that come with rice and radish. I think that'll be easier to order for new customers. 9/10, will come back if I'm in the area.“

“For $36 per person and unlimited meat and appetizers for 2 hours it was great. They switch out your grill and are on top of it when you want to order another round. The manager Eric is amazing and super nice. He came by our table and made sure we had a great time. Definitely going back again.“

“This place is amazing! The seafood pancake is super crispy on the outside, bursting with delicious seafood on the inside, and paired perfectly with a dipping sauce that will make your taste buds dance. As for the pork bulgogi, it's an authentic taste of Korea that never fails to transport me back there with every savory bite. Every dollar spent here is worth, with generous portions and top-notch quality that will leave me satisfaction. And let's not forget the complimentary yogurt at the end--a sweet touch that leaves me smile. Oh, and their adorable drawings distinguishing between the tofu soups? Pure genius! With such exceptional service and attention to detail, here's hoping this wonderful establishment continues to thrive!“

“Everything about this place is wonderful! Came here for the first time and the experience was top tier. Our server Steven was very attentive and informative, service was over the roof amazing! Robots served our food which was pretty cool to see! I got the cold noodles and it was so good! As well as their Milkis Soju cocktail, it is to try! Very amazing place would tots recommend ~!“

“My best friend and I met up here for an early dinner last week and everything we tried was super fresh and flavorful. We had never tried this particular cuisine before, so our waitress gave us some suggestions. We ended up with the Spicy Garlic Prawns, Kimchi Fried Rice and Potstickers. Banchan were served before our entrees and gave us a chance to try new flavors. My baby niece enjoyed it all. Nothing was too spicy or overpowering for her, but at the same time nothing was skimping on flavor.“

“The $5.50 foot 5 drumsticks deal is sooo good, the pieces are as big as my hand in length. Their beef tofu soup is also delicious. The staff was nice enough to make me a less spicy bowl because I was coughing (I can't handle spice in general it wasn't crazy spicy). The seats are comfty too. 10/10 place.“

“This place has many more options than the regular Vons Chicken. I like how there's an indoor and outdoor space for seating. Service is fast and pleasant. We always get the Crispy Fried Chicken with sauce on the side + a side of rice. Highly recommend trying their onion rings as well. Give it a shot! Consider this the better-fried chicken that's brined and juicy with crunchy batter.“

“One of those places you would love to frequent but must be patient! And that's no understatement. Even my wife loved their Korean beef taco. They gave us sauces which one of them were spicy HOT! Be careful! Need ice water nearby or ice cream! Lol My wife enjoyed her soy garlic chicken cupbop & was sad when it was totally gone. Like bummer...I totally enjoyed my burrito packed full & my bulgogi beef cupbop. Yes my wife was tempted to want to dig into my order!!! She backed off though which was a first! LOLYes the M-F 1030-3 hours definitely are catered for the state workers all around. Right? The vibe here was also fresh, clean & contemporary. Even though we had to wait 30 minutes for our full order just bc the gal forgot to place our order in originally it was however worth our wait! Plus the employee did apologize for the long wait. Would we return? If we find street parking nearby sure! On our first try we were very fortunate.“

“I love this place. The workers here are ALWAYS beyond friendly. The woman that usually works the cash register always calls customers "sweetheart" and is always happy and smiling. Their food is simple and delicious. I come on my lunch breaks at the hospital to quickly scarf down food so it is SO nice how quick your order comes out. Highly recommend, this place and their staff are so amazing!!!“

“Good corn dogs. I plan to try a couple of different ones. Too bad they took a while to make and that the charge one average price for the coating and add another price for the inside.Well, geez... if course I want either meat or cheese inside of the outer coating.(No... could I please order just the breaded outer costing to go? [said no one] )And seeing as how it looked as though all the outer coatings had the same price and all the inner filings had the same... why not just say that each one is one set price unless you get one or two of some kind of specialty item they might offer?I will be back because they were really good, but it's kind of unnessacerly confusing, and the process of their pricing should be rethought.“

“Decent Korean BBQ. 33 dollars for AYCE lower tier which was plenty of options for us. It was interesting you could only order three meats each round, but our server was attentive to take our orders for next rounds. I wish they had more sauces than just the sesame oil and soy sauce. Definitely recommend the galbi and the brisket.“

“We've eaten at many different Korean restaurants in the greater Sacramento area, and this is the best as far as the food. Parking is terrible, the restaurant is a bit crowded and noisy, but the food is worth it. A great selection of banchan (small dishes) to start off, all very good quality. We usually come with a group of people, which lets you order a variety of dishes to share. Dolsot bibimbap had a great array of ingredients, served in a hot stone pot. Galbi is very tasty (ask for scissors to cut it off the bone). Mandu was tasty (but be careful, it came out very hot, don't burn your mouth). My favorite is the Haemool Pajun, lots of seafood. Everything we get on each visit is tasty and freshly prepared. Again, best if you can go with a group (we had a reservation for 8 people). Always a busy place.“

“Our group (6) came in towards the end of the night after our boys finished a HS basketball game. They were friendly and attentive. I got the tacos, they were delicious. My husband got the spicy drumsticks, he can handle spice and he was sweating and had to take a break. Everyone liked the crispiness & crunch of the batter. I’d recommend trying them if you haven’t.“
