I’ve been a patron of Koreana for years and was so happy when they returned. Mike and Emma are always incredibly welcoming, and that warmth hasn’t changed from the University City location to the Spring Garden location. The food consistently tastes fresh, and the chicken wings on my recent visits were absolutely perfect. I did order the spicy noodles my last couple of times and found them a bit bland, so that may have been on me for not asking for extra sauce. Overall, I’m still very happy to have Koreana back and will definitely continue supporting them.

This is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. I’ve been coming here since 2016, when the restaurant was in University City, and let me tell you, the food is great. The Dolsots and Lunchboxes are some of my favorites, but don’t sleep on their Jam Bong soup. The biggest surprise to me was their wings. I don’t know how Korean-style wings beat American ones, but Koreana has something special. Thank you to all who make it happen.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jeremy Yowell · Nov 2023

Tried out Koreana's Spring Garden location and came away impressed! The menu was varied with many interesting options, with decent prices and quick service for takeout. The food we tried was all delicious - the chicken lunch box and dumplings were particularly tasty. Definitely will be back.

If you’re craving Korean food, you have to check out this place. This is the old Koreana at University City! If you’re a Philly OG, you know it’s a gem. I always order the chicken wings here —they're amazing. The hot stone bowls (dolsot) are super tasty, and the squid noodles are a must-try. Plus, Mike and Emma, the friendly owners, make it feel like home. I recently brought some in for my office, and everyone loved it. A cozy gem that never disappoints!
