    Been here a few times and we always have a great at experience here. The atmosphere is cozy,staff is welcoming and helpful. The food comes out sizzling hot and fresh,a lot of flavor and overall just fantastic authentic Korean food! Their bbq and hot stone items are delicious. I would recommend eating inside instead of ordering to-go or carry out so you may get the full experience.

    Can’t believe that people still put so much hating on this fabulous authentic Korean restaurant. The chef is Korean. She has the perfect taste which the spicy level is just right for most of us. The service is on point. They tried so much hard to get you satisfied with your food. Love it. Definitely going back again. Support the restaurant during this hard time!

    We ordered some sort of special that came with a ton of different sides. We were super impressed with the amount of food and appetizers. The value for the price we felt was very good. The two serving meal we ordered definitely fed us for a full two meals.Some of the food that I ate, I have no clue what it was. It was very good :-) UPDATE: just got take out again and still just as good if not better than the first time...They give you So. Much. Food. :) We will be back. UPDATE: 10/2/21: food tastes just as good. They did raise the price of the 2 person special by around $4-5, but inflation with food is pretty crazy right now. Tasted the same and as good as prior times.

    just had my second visit to Korean House in Bothell, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. They are simply awesome! The moment I walked in, the staff greeted me with big smiles and made me feel right at home. The restaurant has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. Now, let's talk about the food. It's absolutely delicious! Korean House offers a wide variety of mouthwatering Korean dishes that cater to different tastes. Whether you're a fan of classics like bibimbap and bulgogi or want to try something new, they have it all. During my visits, I tried several dishes, and each one was a delight. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the presentation was impressive. The Kimchi Jjigae was a standout for me, with its rich and spicy broth filled with tender pork and tangy kimchi. The service at Korean House is also top-notch. The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely cares about ensuring you have a great dining experience. Overall, I can't recommend Korean House enough. If you're in Bothell and craving some fantastic Korean cuisine, this is the place to go. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! Sorry some photos show how much we were hungry 😂😂

    We came to eat dinner on a Friday night and were instantly welcomed by the server who sat us down with menu's. We were then greeted by another server who gave us two warm cups of tea he explained what was new on the menu and kindly gave suggestions. We order the meat lover's stew 🍲 and was more than enough for two people. Had lots of meat and ramen, it was delicious. We ordered a level 4 spice and it was perfect! It was a comfortable spicy level. Service was great! The servers would come to check in and they even asked if we wanted any more refills of the side dishes or water. 5/5 for food and service, I would come back again.

    Ordered house special for 2. The house special is a good way to get a wide array of different dishes. Mackerel had too much of a fish taste. Pork cutlet was fantastic but about the same level as ohana or any of the other teriyaki places nearby. Galbi was very good and tender. Rest of the stuff was average (mainly the side dishes were uneventful).

    Found this restaurant through their high rating in the area. Really popular at dinner time, almost every table is seated. We ordered three dishes: seafood pancake, spicy beef brisket soup and regular beef bibimbap. Compared to other Korea resultant I have, the pancake is a little TOO doughy, I definitely had better ones that have packed of seafood and green onion. And it’s a little small portion for a 15 dollars appetizer. The main course are very satisfied, beef soup was hot and spicy, it could feed two people. And the bibimbap is in a decent size, see pictures for more details.

    Korea House has lots of vegetarian and vegan options. For the items that aren't vegan friendly, they're super accommodating. They even brought out side dishes they normally don't bring out, to compensate for the side dishes that aren't vegan. Highly recommend for my veg friends 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

    I came here for dinner with a group of 11 total people. The staff was very accommodating and tried to keep the group together. In the end, there were eight in one of their longest tables and three in an adjacent booth. We had a very chatty child with us, and the gentleman who attended to us was always friendly and included the child in the conversations. The food portions are big, so we ended up with take home boxes. Its nice that Bothell is getting more diverse restaurants...definitely a big change from over a decade ago.

    If I enter a packed food establishment, where almost all the patrons look like the ethnicity the cuisine represents, chances are this will be a good experience. And it was. Korea house is a nicer hole in the wall, but never lacking in service. Both food flavor and portions hit the spot. We ordered a stone bowl, khimchi rice and fried fish. The khimchi accompaniments were delicious and had it not been a lunch, the food would’ve gone very well with some soju. Recommended!

    Korea House offers a symphony of flavors where even vegetarians can savor the delights of K-food. The staff graciously accommodates vegetarians, providing a veggie broth that transforms soups into a flavorful experience, truly "맛있다" (Masitda). For those seeking a Korean twist on vegetarian options, the kimchi veggie broth is a delightful surprise, a "김치 야채 육수" (Kimchi Yachae Yuksu) masterpiece. And don't miss out on the star of the show – the egg fried rice. Each grain is a flavorful companion, questioning if you've truly experienced fried rice before. The garlic chicken is a culinary gem, a "맛의 폭탄" (Mat-ui Poktan) or flavor bomb that takes your taste buds on a delightful rollercoaster. And now, introducing a hidden delight: plain sticky rice with kimchi. Utterly delicious, it's a simple yet extraordinary addition to your meal, proving that sometimes simplicity steals the spotlight. And for those worried about parking, fear not – there's plenty available, a rare gem making your visit even more enjoyable. While the restaurant's popularity may lead to a short wait, the experience at Korea House BBQ is undoubtedly worth every moment, leaving you craving an encore.

    This restaurant has stood the test of time, and it’s easy to see why. With a vast selection, great flavors, and reasonable prices, it’s no wonder it’s been around for so long. For a group of four, opting for shareable dishes is ideal. We tried the lamb hot pot and a plate of assorted meats, both of which were quite enjoyable. However, it was a bit disappointing that the lamb was cut into rather small pieces. The pork belly plate, on the other hand, was absolutely delicious. The seafood pancake, a staple in Korean restaurants, was above average here. Overall, it’s a solid choice for a casual meal, especially for groups. The extensive menu allows you to try a variety of dishes, making it a great option for exploration.

    Absolutely loved the food here. Perfect for business lunch or dinner. Many options available. BBQ chicken and Kimchi soup were perfect! Large portion sizes that matches the price. Would highly recommend if you're in Bothell! Our server was very friendly and attentive.

    Black goat soup: Many vegetables together with goat meat. Beef Short soup: 5 big pieces of nice cut short rib. Both soups are recommended and this place is serious with Authentic Korean soups. Side dishes are also seasoned well.

    I ordered stir-fried squid pork belly. When I opened the package, the smell of food stimulated my appetite. Also, the food was delicious because it was moderately spicy. The food was plentiful, so I divided it between dinner and lunch the next day. The spicy taste relieved my stress.

    Very authentic and tasty Korean food. The side dishes were good as well as the kimchi, which is very important to me. The service as written in the other reviews is really excellent. They were very kind and were eager to help. Overall it’s one of the best Korean restaurants I’ve been to recently.

  • 4/5 Brian L. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice Korean restaurant. They have lots of options from tofu soup to BBQ to stone pot and everything tasted delicious. The portion is quite large though.. when they say it's for two it might actually be enough for 3-4 people.

    The chef and server were courteous and helped us select dishes as one of us was gluten free. Everything was really delicious. Loved the Soondubu, the Flounder and the Glazed Chicken fry. The staff was sweet and it was a wonderful experience.

    Came here with my boss during my first week back from the east coast to continue my foodie adventures. I enjoyed the place as it was not too packed and seating was very quickly. We didn't actually grill and instead just ordered the lunch for 2 special that came with Mackerel , chicken strips, ribs, sundubi(1) we ordered another one separately and sum dumplings. Overall i think the best part was the soup very spicy just how i like it and very soothing. The katsu was meh, very dry not the best. My boss took the leftovers home. The fish was fresh and very good too another highlight for sure. The ribs i feel like they were just dumped/dipped in sauce. We obviously didn't get to experience any of the traditional soju during lunch as you see in dramas lol but the food was an average for me. I have been told that the ownership is relatively new and better than what it was prior. So I'm sure with time they'll improve and hopefully they see my review among others and take it as a constructive criticism.

    Korea house is one of the best Korean restaurants I have ever been to. I’ve gone to this restaurant for years now. I truly enjoy the food so much. It is very high quality and authentic. The current staff and owners are very friendly and always make sure you feel comfortable. They always check up on you to see how you’re doing which I think is very sweet. I recommend this restaurant for everyone to try!!

  • 4/5 Chloe M. 2 years ago on Google
    Been here multiple times and the food is always DIVINE. My favorite is their beef bulgogi and the seafood pancake. Sometimes it takes a while for our server to check on our table, but that’s normal considering how busy it can get. Otherwise, the service is wonderful and prices are fair!

    We've been coming here since we moved to the area in 2017, we moved away but continue to come back monthly. The food here is AMAZING. My husband and I always get the family meal for 2 which comes with the spare rib, fried chicken cutlet, delicious mackerel, fried pot stickers, all of the pickles, and my favorite the soft tofu soup (I love the kimchi with pork seriously the best). The services is always great, the food is always perfect, and we always leave happy.

😐 Their appetizers were fun and the fried rice, the shrimp and grits, the brussel sprouts, and the sliders were all really good. The waitress did not want to bring us a happy hour menu even though we were there during happy hour. That was strange. It felt like we were trying to use a coupon... Not imp...
