I went shopping at Uwajimaya and my husband stayed in the car to listen to game 1 of the NBA Finals. After the game (apparently I was in the store for a long time), he looked up Korean Chicken close to where we were and found this gem. He quickly placed an order for pick up. The place is clean and welcoming. The chicken wings were huge and delicious. He ordered their Yanghyum Chicken Wings. He said they're his second favorite of all time (his favorite was from a place in Boise, ID). read more

Dinner in Seattle, Washington... Since we were in Chinatown and had free street parking on a Sunday, my niece and I looked around for our next meal. She said she saw a Korean restaurant next to where we parked our car. She was right! Gangnam Seattle was a cozy, calm shop. Service was efficient and polite! I got the Bulgogi and rice meal while my niece got the dumpling soup (with mochi). The portions were so generous that I took my leftovers to my niece's apartment. She had it for lunch the next day! Delicious! We were happy to not have to cook our own meal! LOL! read more

Great vibes and great food!! Got the Korean fried chicken and their soy garlic flavor was pretty good. Good taste and it had a good crunch to it. My only complaint is that I wish it came with rice and/or more banchan. There was only one server/cashier so please give them some grace. A lot of seating and they play a lot of kpop hits. read more

The food here was decent! My group's favorite was the crispy chicken wings, the sauce and texture all around was delicious. The fried rice and soft tofu stew was nothing special but still good. There was great service and the bonchon was also delicious! read more

This was a casual Korean restaurant. Food was pretty good with a nice amount of options to choose from. The server was pretty busy serving all the tables by herself, so you may have to get her attention, but that's okay. She was nice. * Crispy Wings 5/5 - I was debating between the flavored wings, but went with the classic Korean Fried Chicken. These were so good. They had a light, crispy exterior. The meat was so juicy and tender. There's also a spicy chili sauce on the side that may be the same sauce for the YangnYum Wings. It was okay. * Galbi 3.5/5 - The meat was well marinated. It was savory with a hint of sweetness. Quite tender also. The issue was that some pieces were burnt, giving a bad aftertaste. There wasn't that much either, so not sure if it was worth the price. read more

Customer service was exceptional. The new owner is super attentive and polite. We would definitely come back just for the service alone. The price is average Seattle price for eating out K-Pop music on the TV to entertain those eating alone. Portion was not huge but also not too little. read more

Very good service! I came in an hour before closing time and they didnt rush me to leave, instead laughing and telling me to relax because I was rushing to get out of their hair haha Delicious banchan! Especially the zucchini one. I love loved their garlic soy chicken. I ordered 10 pieces and almost ate all of it. The bibimbap was huge and very delicious! I recommended my friend to also go and she also enjoyed it! Would love to return for their great service and lax atmosphere and homey food read more

I visit the International District frequently, but I had never tried this restaurant before. The restaurant was clean a server brought water promptly. I ordered the kimchi fried rice. The dish came with 3 banchans, stir fried fish cake, shredded radish, braised potatoes. The stir fried fish cake had most heat and the braised potatoes had natural sweetness. The fried rice was flavorful and had chopped kimchi, fish sausages, green onions and was topped with a fried egg and seaweed. The portion was generous, I took the leftover home. read more

We came here on a thursday for dinner and there was just one other party inside. We ordered the soy garlic chicken wings, bulgogi, and corn cheese. This might just be one of my new favorite spots for KFC?!!! The chicken was super crispy on the outside and so tender on the inside. The soy garlic flavor was also delicious and very prominent. The bulgogi and corn cheese were standard but I have had better. The corn cheese was a little liquidy so it wasn't really sticking together. The waiter refilled our side dishes many times as well which was super sweet. I will definitely be back for the fried chicken! read more

Stopped here for a quick bite and it was good! The service was very friendly and welcoming. We ordered the seafood pancake, which was perfect crispy and full of flavor. We also ordered cheesy corn, which was exactly what it sounded like. You can tell it's canned corn and I think fresh or frozen would have been better, but overall it was a good experience and reasonably priced! read more

We love a hardy, clean tasting chicken burger with a great, sweet bun and a generous amount of fries. The patty was wonderfully thick and cooked to perfection with that crispy outer layer that wasn't too greasy. The thick-cut fries were amazing too! I'd come back just to order a side of fries honestly! Their popcorn chicken was moist and flavorful. I tried the original and the sweet & spicy, both of which were fantastic. Happy to come back for more just to try the rest of their menu! read more

We came here late on a weeknight craving some Korean soup and this place did not miss! The owner was incredibly friendly. It was just him running the front and he was managing all orders, cleaning tables, and running food - so props to him! Almost all the tables were full the whole time we were there so business seemed to be booming. I ordered kimchi jigae and despite the amount of people, my food came out fairly quickly. This soup was EXACTLY what I needed. It was rich and savory, full of umami and sour kimchi flavor. It had a kick of spice, but I needed it since I was dealing with the end of a cold. I loved the huge chunks of tofu which seemed to suck up all the flavor. It came with a bowl of rice and a couple sides of banchan (which is my favorite part tbh). I will definitely be coming back to try some of the other dishes. So rich in flavor and service was great. I love Gangnam! read more

Came here around 8:20pm on a Thursday for bibimbap and it was perfect cold weather food. The hot stone bibimbap with beef was very tasty, but the hot stone wasn't as screaming hot as it should have been, so our rice didn't get truly crunchy/crispy. Excellent gochujang sauce. But all the elements were tasty and there was some good banchan (kimchi, potato salad). We didn't ask for refills, so I don't know if they give them for free. Parking was easy and service was friendly, although we had to ask several times for water (they also have hot barley tea for free, but, again, you gotta ask). Price was reasonable. read more

The food! Excellent. The owner?! Not nice to me and my friend. It was obvious the level of friendliness and how fast she wanted to bus my table while still eating my meal. Make sure as a party of two you dont sit at a four person table or this could happen to you too: Im gonna go back because the fried chicken and the soondoobu was truly top notch. Maybe someone different will be there. read more

Delicious! Great service, fresh food, super close to the Light Rail Station, easy trip from Shoreline - we will be back! read more

Good Korean restaurant if you're in the ID! I shared a doenjang-jjigae (Fermented soybean paste stew) and kimchi pancake. The stew was incredibly flavorful and rich, and incredibly comforting on a cold day. The pancake was pretty standard and a decently tasty appetizer. The server was nice and we also were served barley tea and some delicious banchan. I would get the stew again but maybe skip the pancake. read more

Total Hidden Gem! We ducked into Gangnam Seattle after spotting fried chicken in the window--and WOW. Tiny place, one guy running the front, and hands down some of the best Korean fried chicken we've ever had. We tried wings, ramen, and a few chicken dishes--everything was fresh, crispy, flavorful, and seriously addictive. No misses. My husband hasn't stopped raving about it and already wants to go back. Don't walk--run. This spot is the real deal. read more

Was wandering around the International District and saw this cute restaurant! In an area full of Chinese options, I decided to go for Korean fried chicken since it's been a while. I opted for the honey flavor because I haven't seen it offered often (thinking it's supposed to be like Kyochon's honey flavor) in the states. It was definitely yummy and crunchy, the pieces were all perfectly bite sized. The ambiance of the restaurant was also amazing! The decorations inside felt very homey and made it feel like I was back in Korea! Would highly recommend Gangnam Seattle if you're in the area and craving some Korean food! read more

This is one of few Korean restaurants in Chinatown, and this one did not disappoint! For a table of three, my friends and I didn't have to wait long, and servers were very prompt in showing us the menu and providing suggestions on their favorites. Several TVs hang inside and play a variety of Kpop music, and there's an ample amount of seating. The menu consists of tons of food, most notable being their fried chicken and meat dishes. Together, my friends and I got the yangyum combo (which consisted of half regular fried chicken amd half yangyum chicken, both boneless), dolsot bibimbap, and a spicy pork dish over rice. Their fried chicken was so flavorful and crispy that it primed us up for the rest of our meal, which was just as satisfying. I could keep going on about their bibimbap, but long story short I loved the whole thing especially when stirred together! Their spicy pork also had a ton of nice flavoring along with the side of japchae on the same plate. There's not a ton of Korean restaurants in Chinatown, so I was very happy that this place delivered! read more

Actual: 3.5 stars Casual Korean! Enjoyed it! Love its Korean food that's not breaking the bank and had food the kids like too. Food- overall flavors were 3 stars. Nothing stood out. Solid food I would eat again. Really like the mix menu of traditional Korean vs fried Korean food options. Drinks- non alcoholic, alcohol, beer and soju. Ambiance- casual, lots of K Pop posters and 2 TVs showing k Pop. Service- one person at the counter who ran the whole restaurant on a Tues night. Nice. I walked up to counter to order and pay. Location- on 6th, close to Uwajimaya. Street parking. Value- fair Recommend- yeah! Casual Korean food! read more

This 4 Star Review is based solely on the Crispy Tenders. Constantly impressed with Gangnam Seattle's crispy tenders. Best tenders I've ever had. First, the breading is just near perfect. I say near because I like my breading crispy and crunchy, basically unhealthy style. But Gangnam says noooo, you will be healthy and we will make it only slightly crispy with no grease or oil. So I'm like Ok Gangnam, whatever you say cuz I just love your tenders. Another thing, the chicken itself just LOOKS and TASTES sooooooo clean! Love it! And its Hot (temperature wise)! Love it! And they're not small starved chicken tenders either, they got some meat to them! That's pretty much it! I do wish they gave you an option for the side white sauce that comes with it, perhaps hotsauce instead?! It is "slightly" pricey for a 5 or 10pc, but for me its for sure worth it. If you want a solid healthy, super low carb meal with high quality protein, this is it! The 10pc or the 5pc will do the job. Count on it. read more

Fast, friendly service, good food, and a fun atmosphere - what more could you want? I came here with 4 friends a week ago after we were craving some chicken. One friend suggested Gangnam so we went the to the ID location just a block from Uwajimaya. The waitress was friendly and we were seated immediately. We ended up getting a large order of both the Honey Chicken Thighs (boneless) and the Yangnyum Chicken Thighs (boneless). We also ordered a side of the kimchi fried rice. The chicken was excellent - crunchy, hot, and very tasty. I did prefer the Honey chicken to the Yangnyum as the spice was more prevalent, but both were good! The kimchi fried rice was just OK - it had a lot of butter that I think took away from the flavor of the dish itself. Total was ~$100 after tax and tip. We ordered some white rice and I think drinks, and there is a mandatory service charge that is added (the waitress stressed that no additional tip is necessary as the service charge covers this). Overall I would come back for sure - it was a great time spent with friends! read more

Ok so this review is for their chicken sandwich and fries only. I haven't tried their Korean Fried Chicken yet but I will be back with a larger group to try that. So first off, this place reminds me a lot of Korean Soju bars in the early to mid 2000s. There are posters of Kpop groups, 3 large Screen TVs playing their Music Videos, and chalk boards for customers to leave their imprints. I wasn't here to drink but this could be a cool venue for after hours if you're into drinking Soju or Soju bombs over fried chicken or other Korean snacks. Service was okay. Wasn't expecting much anyway. Very typical of a Korean restaurant. I see this as a good thing. So, onto the food! I was impressed by how they fried the French fries. Very crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Overall, the food was quite sweet for my taste but this seems to be how Korean food these days is trending. I am pretty sure the fries were seasoned with salt and sugar. The chicken sandwich was quite sweet but again, very well made. I ordered the spicy and I could feel a little bit of heat (not too much). Textures work well. And I could taste some sort of fruit-based sauce. Couldn't really tell what it was but it worked I thought. Overall, I would give this place a 3.5 if I could but I am rounding up since the price was very reasonable ($11.99 for sandwich + fries + diet coke). Portions were quite large as well. read more

We came here as a group of 5 around 6pm on a Sunday in July and were easily able to find a table. It seems like a lot of customers tend to do takeout. Once we sat, we got water fairly quickly which was nice because it was quite hot that day. When we were ordering our food, a person in my group asked for all flats when she ordered wings and they were able to accommodate that request. As we waited for the food, they gave us these four dishes to share that came complimentary. I appreciated being able to try something new, but was not sure what the name of the different dishes were. Food came out as it was ready rather than out at the same time, but that ended up being fine because no one finished their food before another person got their food. I ordered the teriyaki chicken with white rice and when I got my food, there was also a noodle and a fried egg that came with it. Those two items were not listed as included. I enjoyed the chicken and rice, but the texture of the noodle was not for me and I am not a fan of a runny yolk so I just put the egg to the side. I tried the gyoza and liked the dipping sauce that came with it. I also tried the Potato hotdog and the cheese inside was nice and melty while the outside was crispy. The people in my group enjoyed what they ordered too and overall we were satisfied with our meal. I believe the price for the food was fairly reasonable. read more

After doing a 5K with my friends on a chilly Saturday morning, the first stop to warm us up was this cute lil place by Chinatown. The restaurant is cute and decorated with all the K-pop posters and soju caps (how creative!) and played all my favorite K-pop artists and songs. As a group we ordered the soy garlic wings and a seafood pancake to share, and NO CAP this was the best KFC and pancake I've ever had! Everything was packed with flavor and was the perfect texture of crispy! Our waitress was super sweet and gave us extra sauce to use on the pancake to take home, because we demolished all the sauce it came with. I highly recommend this place if you're craving Korean food!! 10/10 - I will definitely be back when I'm in Seattle again! read more
