Take a look at the most amazing Korean restaurants in London and why you should visit them.
On the Bab has four restaurants across London with two in central and two in East London. Many of their dishes imitate street-food found in Korea, but with a refined twist. They aim to provide an authentic experience which mimics the food consumed by local Koreans.
We recommend: Steamed Bao Buns, but you’ll find them on the menu just as buns. There are several options to pick from such as vegetarian, spicy or bulgogi, but what really makes the difference is the buns.
Nearest station: Old Street or Shoreditch High Street (Shoreditch) Blackfriars or City and Thameslink (St Pauls)
This restaurant is Korean with a Japanese touch! The restaurant itself has a minimalistic interior and it is situated very near to the Victoria - Appolo Theatre. They offer many staple Korean dishes, including noodles, soups and meat from the grill. The place is a favourite among lovers of this type of cuisine as it attained a certificate of excellence from Trip Advisor in both 2016 and 2017.
We recommend: Kimchee Fried Rice, it’s served with Miso soup and has a very homemade taste.
Nearest station: Victoria
Yori is situated in the highly populated Picadilly Circus, close to the tourist hot-spot—Trafalgar Square. This restaurant is in a great location for tourists and serves great food. Yori prides itself on using only the highest-quality ingredients and altering dishes to suit those trying Korean food for the first time. NB: Yori closes during lunch on Monday's.
We recommend: Jeon or Korean Pancakes, though these are starters for your meal, it’s the perfect way to prepare your taste buds for the Korean feast you’re about to endure.
