Kyung's Seafood

You know that experience of craving a home cooked Korean meal, and your "ajumeoni" cooks all that kind of food for you and it's so good? Yeah, I don't, because I'm not korean. But that's OK, because when the craving for home cooked Korean meal hits, I can go to Kyung's Seafood. 1. Food - It's what I would imagine a home cooked meal would be like. Our family usually orders these: chicken katsu, meat jhun, kalbi, seafood pancake, KFC (that's Korean Fried Chicken, chicken wings), and one of their pokes. They always come out good. Nothing to complain about. 2. Service - Good enough. They get us what we need in a timely manner. That's really all I can ask for. 3. Location - It's off of S. King St. They have a small parking "lot" in the back. Fits about 3-4 cars. When it gets full, good luck trying to find street parking. Inside is really small. The vibe is kinda divey, almost like a bar. Lot's of tables, but really tight when the place is full. Reminds me of those restaurants I see in K-Dramas. 4. Price - Expensive. But hey, everything is nowadays. I can't really blame them when we live in Hawaii and have to ship everything in. The place also serves a lot of their food on cheap paper plates. Maybe it's their attempt to keep costs down. I'm OK with it, but it is my least favorite aspect at Kyung's.

3.5/5 starsMy family and I ordered a little bit of everything to share and the only exceptional dish we tried was the Mama Special Poke. The poke was very fresh, combined with the roe and onion it was met with a good crunch factor! The spice wasn't overbearing and just right. This is a must get if you visit!On the other hand, everything else was standard. The food is better suited for drinking, which was not expected for a family dinner. The tteokbokki was well done - the rice cakes were cooked well and were squishy! The meat jun & galbi was a bit disappointing as the meat was good but very thin with a thick batter coating it. Kimchi fried rice was decent, no one can really mess it up. The restaurant was super busy with fully booked reservations. The owner was nice enough to serve us a table with a one hour time limit.

This place is awesome. Come in closer to noon, as they make their spicy tuna mixture in the morning and it might not be ready if you stop by too early.The poke was fantastic and the kids LOVED the kalbi ribs.We were in Hawaii for a week... and came here TWICE!Definitely coming back next time we're in town. If you're tired of Foodland, then definitely give this place a try.

Great value and good food! Came this time on a Sunday, so lots of free meter parking on King St. Had some delicious entrees plus sashimi. The spicy rice cakes were terrific, seafood pancake yummy, fried mandoo so filling and fresh saba. But the highlight was the sashimi...so fresh and thick slices! Such a bargain at $30 for 24 pieces.

FINALLY hopped over to Kyung's for lunch on a Saturday with out of town family and it did not disappoint!The four of us split a kimchee fried rice, sashimi platter, and meat jun Ala Carte, and delicious banchan. The place is small so peak hours around dinner can be hard to get a seat, but they do have reservation options.The food comes out quickly and is no frills in presentation, but A+ quality and made to order. It's a fabulous combination of local style Korean-bbq plate lunch and fresh fish that will please locals and out of Towners alike!

Oh my gosh the food at this place is so good! I'm failing at gatekeeping this restaurant but we were so happy with the food and our waitress was super nice. I could see the cooks in the kitchen making our food. That's the kind of home cooking I want to see when I eat legit Korean food. Finding parking is a challenge but if that deters you then good more spaces for me to park. The outside of the restaurant does not speak for the wholesome goodness waiting for you. So what? It's air conditioned and that first bite you sink your teeth into will take you to next level cuisine elation.

This is one of those places where I go for one thing and one thing only, the meat jun and mama's special poke combo. I have tried the wings and maybe another dish, but somehow I just remember the taste of the meat jun/poke combo. In my opinion, it's the best meat jun on island. It's sometimes pretty busy and you have to make reservations, but I would typically call in for takeout since the place is quite small. Portions are huge and easily can become two or three meals.

Amazing prices, amazing quality food, great sashimi, the spicy poke (mamas special spicy) is no joke, everything about this place from food to drinks is so tasty and so well priced.It's a small restaurant that can sit maybe 25 people, lots of good food options, good service, okay portions, but man do they make good food, and their soju cocktail is literally a full bottle of soju mixed with some flavored juice. Drink at your caution. 100% recommend. 수고하세요!

Super fresh and delicious poke and kalbi, and really impressive portions for the price.

This place is a great bang for your buck-- don't be fooled by the exterior. The poke + galbi plate is extremely value, you get almost 1/4th lb of poke with 4-5 pieces of galbi. I came multiple times and the food quality was really fresh. I like that you can choose whatever fish you want with the flavor ( salmon, ahi, albacore etc) The combo plate is more value than just the galbi plate since the portions are similar.
