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!

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 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.

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!

Food poisoning from eating their sushi. Too much sugar and msg. Side dishes were not that great. They only had one server on a busy Saturday

Oh no... what happened?When this place first opened up, I was really glad to have another Korean restaurant to choose from in the area. This place is right up the street from me so it was a great place to quickly pick up food whenever I didn't feel like cooking or after a long trip and not being able to have solid Korean food.I've never minded the 4% fee for not paying cash because the food was solid, but this last trip really made me regret my decision of ordering.Ordered spicy pork and shrimp teriyaki (only because their noodle soup kalguksu was no longer available) and I can honestly say this was not what I expected.The spicy pork felt like it was cooked by someone who never had Korean food before and was quickly told what it should be. Felt like I was eating a poor version of Szechuan double cooked pork. While I love a good double cooked pork, that's not what I ordered. The shrimp teriyaki was a watery mess. Both dishes had a very odd vinegary undertone you wouldn't normally find in these dishes.From what I can tell, there may have been a different chef from my past experiences and I was genuinely let down and disappointed as this was such a great place to get some great Korean food. May have to rethink that move going forward.I hate writing bad reviews, but this was quite jarring.

Very authentic Korean restaurant with great service and food. No matter what you order, they aim to accommodate and provide attentive service without too many interruptions. Kim, the owner is a lovely lady who genuinely cares about the customer experience and prepares your meals with great care. There is plenty of room for all party sizes - even a banquet room for events! The ambiance is typical Korean - when the clientele is predominantly Koreans. Encourage everyone to try it and support your local small business! Will be returning frequently.
