8 Star K Restaurant

8 Star K Restaurant Yucca Valley, California We do not often come across Korean restaurants when traveling through small towns, but we found just that in Yucca Valley, California. We are used to enjoying Korean cuisine in San Diego and other large cities, yet this small restaurant serves food that is genuinely delicious. The kimchi is especially flavorful, and I was told it is made by the owner. This was actually our second visit, and our first experience was exceptional. Their dishes could easily rival some of the best Korean restaurants in San Diego, and we have an entire street of Korean dining establishments back home. The banchan is fresh and well-prepared. For an appetizer, we ordered the pan‑fried dumplings, or mandu, which were cooked nicely. This time, I ordered the pork cutlet,

Visited here first time and everything we ordered are delicious, especially the fried chicken wings so tender and crispy. The lady working there was very friendly as well. Food came out promptly. If you’re in town and love Korean food don’t miss out this gem.

Exceptional staff, REAL Korean cuisine (lived in HCBC, ROK for 2 years, it's the real deal) and decent prices for the location. Will definitely enjoy another meal here again! The Hot Bibimbap & Fried Mandu way perfect.

Had crave for Asian food in Joshua Tree area and this Korean resto did the job! We ordered Korean fried chicken and tho it looked a bit uncommon than all the other Korean fried chicken we had, it was super crispy, juicy, and perfectly seasoned.

The food was authentic and full of flavor. Every dish tasted fresh and well-balanced. A great spot for quality Korean cuisine
