Korea House

Came on a Sunday afternoon to try this place for the first time. Glad to have found a great hole in the wall spot! They open at 1PM on Sundays. Parking lot is quite large. Authentic Korean food with friendly service. Food is fresh and flavorful. The banchan dishes are some of the better I've had! They come by and constantly refill them. We were served tea and water. They recommend getting the whole fried chicken and we loved it - so crispy and good! My favorites were soups - we tried the galbitang and soondubu which were rich in flavor. The fried mackerel was very crispy and done well. The seafood pancake and bibimbap were also good, pretty standard. This is a a solid Korean place in the area. Great experience!

Large restaurant, large parking lot, arrive half hour to 45 minutes before closing or you might be turned away.We had their lunch specials which come out bento box style: entree, salad, rice, Banchan of 3-5 items. Good variety of banchan and good grill taste on their meats. They also have a wide variety of KFC - Korean Fried Chicken.Good polite service.

Truly a gem among Korean restaurants and I'm blessed to live close by. Every time I try another Korean restaurant, even if it's good, my first thought is "but it's not as good as Korea House." They offer both regular dining tables and cooking tables. There's three menus--barbecue, conventional dining with all the little sides, and the fried chicken menu. I love the warm and inviting lighting. Their spicy barbecue chicken is 1. ACTUALLY spicy and 2. to die for, but the crispy fried chicken (pictured here) is my favorite ever. Literally nothing can top it for me. The breading doesn't get soggy and start peeling off after a few hours like most everywhere else, theirs is the only fried chicken I will eat as leftovers! This fried chicken is so flavorful with a lovely hint of heat, more like a pleasant warmth to the tongue than the dazzling sting of something that would be labeled as actually hot. Other fried chicken underwhelms me now, when I say nothing can compare I don't say it lightly. The service is great, they come to check on us repeatedly to make sure we're alright and I don't ever have to wait super long for my food. Safe to say Korea House has ruined me for any other fried chicken and Korean cuisine.

The service is friendly and the food is good. The side dishes are great and free refills. The menu has something for everyone, even my picky kid.

Came here for dinner on a Sunday night. No wait at all. I came here once before, a year or two ago and probably didn't write a review at that time so I'm reviewing according to this visit. We ordered the combo that came with spicy pork, pork belly, beef and chicken. I can't really comment on the chicken because I was never a fan of chicken at a Korean restaurants. The beef was super dry, nothing special with the spicy pork, and the pork belly had no taste. Overall, the foods were not that tasty. The side dishes tasted better than the entrees. The fish cakes were delicious.

This is my new favorite korean restaurant! The food is made with love and all the staff is so nice! I will definitely be coming back

First time trying this place even tho its only about 5 mins from my house, but cant believe I havent tried sooner!! The look and feel outside gives you that nostalgic OG restaurant feel, when you walk inside, you feel the same way as well.Came on a Thursday night for a takeout order. They looked pretty busy as well. The person who helped us with our pick up order was nice in communicating with us that they were out of some items for banchan, and that she'll give us double next time :D We waiting maybe 20 minutes after getting there to receive all our food. I just remember it smelling soooo good when we grabbed the bags.What I got and how I rate them:-Corn Cheese (8/10)-Combo 3 (10/10) -Spicy Teokbokki (8/10)-Japchae (9/10) -Beef Soup (8/10) (not pictured) Combo 3 was a good choice bc you get a variety of meats. Everything was really yummy and flavorful, and they definitely give you a goood amount of food. It was one of those things where you open the take out boxes and say "WOW". The total for this came to like ~$130ish? But it fed 5 people well :) Overall...I will definitely come back here to try more items esp the Yang Nyum Chicken!! So glad I finally came to this place.

Korea House is still open and now serving TTO BONG EE Korean Fried Chicken. If it's your first time trying this chain, I would suggest the half order of CRISPY with the option of drums and wings or wings only. TTO BONG EE Chicken: https://yelp.to/feJhEsEqElbKorea House still offers their usual menu items with the faves being the LA-style shortribs and japchae. Be sure to call in your order (chicken option not available for online ordering yet) to minimize the wait time. Server is very friendly and helpful when placing your order Private parking available but not the best lighting. Located about 3 blocks from the Hayward BART station

Great atmosphere friendly staff and great food. It's a small restaurant so it's a great place for a date night

This has been my go-to Korean restaurant since moving to Hayward a few years ago. Every time I think about trying a new place, I talk myself out of it because of proximity and cost. It's not the cheapest but it is, IMO, a little less than some places and you get more than enough delicious food for your money. They have table BBQs on one side and regular dining on the other. I have not had a bad experience with the food or service, which might be a little slow at times but it is only two aunties working the dining room.
