Korea House Restaurant - Columbus (GA)

2 /5 Life of Esther: To start off, as a Korean person, I dont consider this place an authentic Korean restaurant but Im not entirely surprised by how it tasted. I got the kimchi fried rice, soon dubu (soft tofu) soup, kalbi and bulgogi dinner set and ttukbaegi. The only dish that tasted authentic was the soon dubu, and I got the highest spicy level 5 and it wasnt that spicy. (I assume that a Korean person started this restaurant but probably sold it to a non Korean person.) The kimchi fried rice was huge in portion but not exactly what I expected it to taste like. The key ingredient in kimchi fried rice is the kimchi and it has to be aged kimchi for it to taste good. The kalbi & bulgogi set was alright, the bulgogi was a bit bland but the kalbi was good! If the food wasnt good here, I hope that you arent disappointed by Korean cuisine! I appreciate the effort behind the food but I wanted to note that it doesnt taste authentic. Also it seemed like a lot of people take food to go or have ordered online for delivery because we were the only ones who ate in store.

5 /5 Velma Whitehead: My 1st experience with Korean dishes!! I purchased the Beef bulgogi lunch special and 2 egg rolls. I thoroughly enjoyed the meal and those crispy egg rolls were awesome. I am going back today for another lunch special of the bulgogi and a spare rib platter. Front staff was warm friendly and pleasant. Food was fresh and came out in a satisfactory wait time.

4 /5 Theodore Brown: I gave this spot a try while I was in the area. The food was pretty decent. I must say this, visually the food doesnt look good but it is good. The rib was a little to salty and it may have been due to the marinade. I will most definitely stop by to try more of their dishes!

3 /5 Calista Laws: Bulgogi was dry and lacked flavor. Terrible place for kids: no kids menu, no cups at all, no kid-friendly food except fried mandu and egg rolls. My adult daughter loves the Kalbi, thats the reason it gets 3 stars with the polite and attentive worker.

1 /5 Andrew Whitlock: The rice smelled like it wasn’t washed or it was old and the two kimchi sides given were too sweet. Bean sprouts weren’t cleaned (growing up in a Korean household, we know that you can’t just pull them out of the bag and prepare them, they need to have the husks and roots removed). The soup I got was okay. Staff was super nice and the place itself is very welcoming.
