Best Restaurants in Austin, Spring 2025 | Eater Austin

"Dining at the casual Korean restaurant in North Shoal Creek is a perfectly homey experience. The traditional menu boasts stews (budae jjigae and the seaweed-y miyukguk), kimbap, and kimchi jeon. Then, there’s the fun grill-it-yourself barbecue setup with all sorts of meats, such as galbi and tender duck breasts, and a wide variety of banchan. Order from its selection of wines, cold sake, select beers, or its yuja ade, a Korean honey citron tea combined with sparkling water, lemon, and mint. The physical space is beautiful, with a pond outside and many group-friendly tables, though to-go ordering is also available. Vibe check: Korea House is a place for the community: co-owner Mrs. Kim offers monthly free meals to those who need them." - Erin Russell
