Korean Kitchen Wake Forest

One of my favorite restaurants! Food is good consistently! Service is very nice! People come to say hi when they start to recognize me and my family! It is a good feeling! Very homey, healthy, and delicious foods!! Also never crowded which I like! Absolutely recommend!!!

This place is a gem! Even arriving late, we were warmly welcomed and seated right away. We shared the Korean BBQ wings and spring rolls – both were absolutely delicious. My girlfriend loved her bibimbap bowl too. Great food, friendly service, and a nice atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Service was good, but they got busy right after we entered and they only had 2 servers so it was a bit of a wait to get our check and and to request a few items after the food came, but the server(we didn't catch her name, darn it!) was very accommodating and didn't pester us like some restaurants. She also made sure everything was good before we left and was very sweet. The hostess/manager(I presume) was very nice and also refilled my soup to-go. We had the fried dumplings, which were perfectly crispy! I had the Japchae and my wife had the Budae Jjigae. The Japchae had way more meat than other Korean restaurants we've to in Cary and the Budae Jjigae had so much meat it was insan
