"West Anderson’s Korea House turns even a takeout meal into something celebratory. Try the bubbling budae jjigae or the milky ox bone soup. Kimbap and kimchi pancakes travel with ease and still satisfy. Order online or over the phone for pick-up." - Darcie Duttweiler
"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
"Walking into Korea House feels like a welcome escape from Austin. It’s tucked away in a courtyard off West Anderson Lane that we’re guessing hasn’t changed much in the 30+ years it’s been around. There’s a small, lily-covered pond out front that makes the experience feel a little like dining just outside of a zen garden. As far as Korean barbecue goes, meats are à la carte here, with quality that rivals the best. Thick, well-marbled cuts of galbi crisp up and sizzle on the grill, while you pick at the largest selection of banchan options we’ve come across in town." - nicolai mccrary
"This Eater 38 Korean restaurant in North Shoal Creek is a classic for good reason. The beautiful space, hidden in a strip mall near the Alamo Drafthouse Village theater, serves traditional dishes, including cook-yourself barbecue for parties of four or more people, bibimbap, and spicy rice cakes. Visit during the first Wednesday of the month to score free meals, a gift from the owner, Mrs. Kim." - Darcie Duttweiler
"Korea House has been dishing out classic Korean food—like japchae, bibimbap, and bulgogi—in the Village Shopping Center on West Anderson and Burnet Road for over 30 years. But our favorite thing to get here is their budae-jjigae, aka army base stew (OK fine, this isn’t technically a soup but it’s pretty close). It’s a giant pot of bone broth, sausage, spam, kimchi, gochujang, tofu, sweet potato noodles, ramen, rice cakes, a slice of American cheese, and more. It also comes with a few different banchan and a mountain of rice—it’s enough to easily feed four." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
