“ Authentic very good Korean. Service excellent, management warm. helpful and communicative. Glad to have found Kori. ”
“ Oh they're just the best! I've visited Kori multiple times and I always get the same thing. Black bean noodles & a BIG jar of Kimchi. Their noodles are absolutely incredible and I crave them so often. They do not skimp out on the portion! I've tried Kimchi from so many other restaurants and grocery stores, but Kori does it the best. Their Kimchi is delicious and I wish I lived closer because I run out of it so quickly! Once it's in my fridge, it's all I can think about. The restaurant is spacious and super clean! The staff is just so sweet and warm--they make you feel super welcomed. One time, I ordered take-out and rather than having me step outside, they sat me down and gave me a cup of tea as I waited. Such a sweet gesture!! I will always go back to Kori and I hope more people try it out because it's a 10/10. ”
“ Had such a lovely lunch here! All the servers are so sweet and kind 10/10. I loved my kimchi stew and black bean noodles! ”
“ Really good traditional Korean dishes very fairly priced and the kimchi is excellent and the people that run the restaurant are very nice ”
“ Third time here within a week--that's how much I love this place. Everything is perfect, from food, to atmosphere, and to service. It's officially my favorite Korean place. ”
“ The staff is super nice and hospitable. Michelle, daughter of owners is the best! I liked the extra tripe and cartridge knuckles in the salleungtang. The kalbi tang did not disappoint. The sashimi was super fresh. There is a karaoke banquet room. We need a Korean restaurant like this in DelCo! ”
“ Delicious food, great service. Their small appetizer was really good. Usually I'm not a big fan of kimchi but they're kimchi was really good! Sashimi was nice and fresh. Dumplings were very juicy and meaty. Green onion pancake could be a little bit more crispier overall still tasty! The short rib was very delicious and juicy! ”
“ I was in the area for a conference, and this was a nice find. Though I grew up in the Philly suburbs, I live in LA, which has hands-down the best Korean food in the country. This is probably not quite pitching consistently at the level of the best of LA, but it's still very legit and very good. I opted for bibimbap (with beef), which came out sizzling hot with a trio of banchan (and they also provided me with tea and a cup of clear soup with tofu and other goodies in it). The bibimbap needed quite a bit of gochujang to hit the right flavor point for me, but once it did, while it wasn't the best iteration of the dish I've ever had, it was still a good one. Further, the banchan were all on point, and the soup was delicious. At the end of the meal, the delightful owner offered me a cup of a cold, rice-based drink with a lovely air of cinnamon about it--this was a fabulous and refreshing surprise. Atmosphere is pleasant and comfortable, service was very kind and prices are fair. I'd give it four out of five on food, with a bump to five for the welcoming environment. ”
“ It's a good authentic Korean restaurant in the area. I came here with my boyfriend. The service was friendly, attentive and fast. The restaurant is very spacious and clean. I like that it has a parking lot. The food came out in a timely manner and everything was delicious. The restaurant offered a variety of Korean food as well as BBQ and sushi. I like that they have barly tea. I highly recommend coming here. P.S. I always like that there is a call button at Korean restaurants. ”
“ I'm Korean, so I definitely know Korean food... and this place does it well! The owners are super friendly and the food is delicious! I appreciate that even though we ordered takeout, our meal still came with side dishes (banchan), including miso soup and kimchi. I like Kori because they not only have Korean food, but also Japanese (sushi) and Chinese (well, Korean/Chinese fusion dishes like tangsuyuk and fried rice). We ordered fried dumplings (mandu), tangsuyuk (crispy fried sweet & sour pork), galbi, bulgogi, shrimp fried rice, and sushi (unagi/eel, hamachi yellowtail, salmon, and spicy tuna dragon roll). I really enjoyed the sushi, but the Korean food is where this place shines. It's important to note that the restaurant is BYOB and they have a surcharge for credit card use, so bring alcohol and cash! I highly recommend Kori! To note: they also serve breakfast! ”
