    beef bulgogi, fried egg, white rice, and veggies

    I love this place and want to say the food is the best Korean food in El Paso, but what they did today was honorable of a 1 star. I ordered the Bi Bam Bap ( which comes with a decent portion of beef bulgogi, a fried egg, and some veggies ) today and when I opened the plate when my wife got home there was barley any meat, only about 7 small pieces ( the first linw of your pinky finger) that I had to find. When I called because that is not normal the lady who answered the phone said they only do a little meat. like I said one of the best Korean food here but what they did today with their portion size is really ridiculous for how much potential they actually have

    Humor.., read to the end.

    What a gem of a Korean restaurant with an authentic and simple menu. I had an excellent Korean lunch today with my dear friend John W. This place is cozy with a relaxed and low key atmosphere with at most fifteen tables. You can see it is a local favorite. I had a spicy beef soup with some Korean dumplings and my friend John had a Bulgogi. The food was great. The service with Soy was even better! This is a place I would definitely recommend- easy parking outside, great authentic Korean food and a very effective and dedicated service! There is a lot to like here!

    I spread the meat out to show just how DRY it was, no BBQ flavor at all!!!

    First and last time I will be going to this place!! We went to try this place out, my ordered arrived 10 minutes BEFORE my friends food arrived at the table. I ordered the BBQ beef which was cold and VERY DRY!!! Took forever to get a refill of tea, terrible service and food!!! NOT WORTH THE $80 WE SPENT!!!! We will n9t be going there again!!!

    Galbi Ribs

    Absolutely amazing food! The service was fantastic--our server was so kind and recommended the galbi ribs, which turned out to be the perfect choice. The restaurant has a warm, family-oriented atmosphere, making the experience even more enjoyable. Every dish arrived piping hot and fresh--nothing was cold or lacking in flavor. If you visit, you must try the spicy fried tofu--it's a standout! Highly recommend this place!

    This restaurant was phenomenal! The service was great - super attentive and helpful. The place is small but roomy at the same time and had a fun variety show on. But the food? Absolutely amazing! We ordered the galbi ribs, pork bulgogi, rice teokbokki, and yakimandu. All of it was delicious. The banchan that came had all sorts of delicious sides that complimented everything very well. Definitely recommend and will be back soon.

    Soy bean paste soup
    Lisa S.

    The best korean restaurant in El Paso! I've tried every korean restaurant near me (cafe korea, kalbi house) but I would say Korea House definitely beats them all. What we ordered: 1. Soy bean paste soup (dwaengjangjeegae) - 7.5/10 The soup isn't too salty which i really appreciated. The portions were BIG and i loved how much tofu and veggies she put into it! Was such a hearty and satisfying meal. Felt like a meal my mom would make for me. 2. Spicy pork bulgogi - 7/10 A little too fatty for my taste but the seasoning was so smokey and the portion size was so generous! Wasn't too sweet or salty either! This is definitely my go to korean restaurant to go to in el paso! The service is also great and I loved that they had kdramas playing in the background. The ambiance of the restaurant felt like a korean restaurant in ktown la haha

    Tried out Korea House for the first time today. I have to say it was a different experience. The service was excellent the food was delicious and more importantly it was clean. I have to include that in there since I had a horrible experience at another Korean place in the northeast. It felt like we went to eat at a relatives home. Treated use like family. Kamsahamnida (감사합니다) I will definitely come here again.

    Complimentary banchon
    Joe B.

    I like to start off with service, it was pretty good. Ambiance is hole in the wall setting, not in a bad way though. Ok the banchon, sorry if that's a misspelled, was the best in EP out of all the places I've been so far. The regular kimchi was perfect! It's so tasty that I could've just eaten rice and kimchi for a vegetarian meal. Kimchi and the radish's were my favorite. I love cucumber kimchi but this one wasn't that tasty but it was still good. This was my first time trying this soup anywhere so I don't have anything to compare it to. I was just in the mood for soup. It wasn't what I was looking for but after a tough day at work, I was there already and I didn't want to get hangry. The soup was ok, I would order it again but I would add soy sauce from the start. IMO it lacked the sodium broth I was looking for. Towards the bottom of the bowl I added soy sauce and it was perfect! So next time, I would add it from the start. I saw other customers eating the spicy pork so I really want to try that next time and also the Kalbi. I actually went to the wrong place, but was happy to find it by accident. So far my favorite place for Korean food.

    The service was exceptional, our server was so sweet and kind. Food was amazing( dumplings, spicy bbq chicken, kimchi soup).the reviews said it was a really good place with tasty food and it set the expectation and Korea House Restaurant did not disappoint.

    First time in this place, visiting a friend for lunch. Service started off well, but deteriorated when my friend and her kids arrived. The staff asked my friend to control her children or leave, citing previous incidents. This made me uncomfortable, as my friend is a regular customer. The restaurant is not kid-friendly if they don't behave perfectly. Additionally, the food made me sick. I won't be returning.

    This place is very small but has amazing food. They get packed quickly and get a lot of to go orders so be patient. I ordered the pork and kimchi stir fry which tasted very good. They also bring different sides/kimchi very good and freshly made. Will be back.

    Very solid bulgogi. Cabbage kimchi, cucumber, radish were all on point. Great service! Ambiance? Very plain. I will go again!

    Do they have blackbean sauce noodles (jajangmyeon)? I'd love this to be on the menu. I've been searching for this noodle.

    Last time I went, they took it off. Only bibimnengyum

    The food was good but it is not authentic it has all been tweaked in an odd (El Paso?) fashion…read more More often than not it tasted good though. Otherwise this would be three stars. Pan fried dumplings : small, odd shape, served flipped tupside down apparently directly from the pan, and not all that crispy. BBQ pork Bao: split on top, way too soft (and wrong) texture Spicy Sichuan soup - this was easily the best dish but it's made with lemongrass ?? that's a Thai thing. An unusual but delicious tweak. Dry fried chicken - completely not authentic this came coated in a spicy dust. Truly bizarre

    I was highly anticipating eating here while driving from California through Texas, especially since…read morethey have plaques for best Chinese food in El Paso in addition to the high reviews by hundreds of customers. Unfortunately, my fiancé and I were disappointed with what was brought to the table. While the portion sizes and cost-per-plate were very nice, the flavor seemed to miss. * Our Sesame Chicken just tasted like orange chicken with a bunch of sesame seeds on it * Xiao long baos were weirdly tangy? * SumSam dumplings were good in taste overall, but the dumpling wrapper fell apart very quickly when being picked up and the filling kept falling out. Our favorite dish we ordered though * Pork BBQ Bao was also good in flavor, but the bao felt a bit starchy and was hard to chew at times. Additionally when we arrived, the floors were sticky, the sauce jars at the table did not look recently cleaned, and there was still residual food under our table from previous patrons.
