Korean Barbecue Restaurants in the USA

Our guide to Korean barbecue restaurants

Korean restaurants range from tabletop barbecue, where you grill marinated meats yourself, to soup and stew houses, fried chicken shops and casual spots serving bibimbap and noodles. Almost every meal comes with banchan – small complimentary side dishes such as kimchi, pickled vegetables and seasoned greens that are usually refilled on request.

Korean barbecue is a social meal best shared by a group; most restaurants have a two-person minimum for grill orders. Korean fried chicken, double-fried and glazed, has become a category of its own.
