A cute by place nestled in midtown down from Virgin and next to H&S bagels, the perfect mid week dinner spot. We ate at the bar and enjoyed a nice IPA and Lychee Martini. A good start Sides were brought out and enjoyed the Mac salad, noodles, and two other veggies and a side of white rice. All can be replenished on demand. The kimchi was amazing ! Main course? We shared spicy pork which was amazing. Pork belly which was good but too fatty for our taste and looks like it was poached, good but not my fav. The menu said slow cooked, but meh ... Lastly - sliced beef on bone short ribs. Excellent. Ambience is ok, but a great chill vibe. read more

We tried Onda for the first time last week and it was such a vibe! The staff were so friendly and welcoming and provided lots of insight about the menu in a way that was funny and engaging. The food was very tasty - we ordered the garlic soy wings, kimchi arancini, LA Kalbi, and the spicy pork bulgogi. Heads up, the spicy pork is definitely best for someone who really enjoys spice - it was a little too hot for me. The LA Kalbi was insanely good. read more

Onda is a cute place to get dinner. It was surprising to me that when we went there were only two other tables eating. I got the pork bulgogi it was very good and enough food for two meals. We also tried the wings which were so good and sticky. The melon martini drink was delicious! read more

Korean restaurant near Music row in Nashville. The inside is nice and upscale but still comfortable. We ordered the Korean chicken wings as an appetizer and they were so so good. The best thing we ate. For entrees we ordered the Kalbi (beef short rib) and the beef bulgogi. The short rib had great flavor but many of the pieces were entirely fat and very little meat. I was disappointed to see them serve so much fat. The beef bulgogi was rather bland, dry, and did not come with much veggies. With the exception of the wings, the food was overall okay. Service was great. read more

I ordered delivery from Onda and the food was exceptional. I adore soft tofu soup, and Onda's was superb. It was very spicy in the most delicious way, and had tons of ramen noodles, soft tofu, and beef. I would 100% order it again. The udon with bulgogi was also incredible-- soo yummy with tons of noodles and meat. The bibimbap was a nice size but I would probably eat it there vs ordering it to get it in a stone bowl. The chicken wings were large and sweet with a spicy kick. I'm so glad to have found this restaurant and can't wait to go in person! read more

The food was good but wish the portion met the pricepoint. We definitely enjoyed all the dishes especially the udon dish. The service was pleasant and quick turn around on the food service as well. The ambiance was decent - fits the downtown area esthetics. read more

Onda - L.A. Kalbi, kimchi aranchini, chicken wings, bulogi yaki udon - Korean Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This place is actually EXCELLENT, especially for Nashville standards! It's not what you'd find in K-town LA but still pleasantly surprised by the degree of authenticity. Came with some coworkers on a weeknight - easily accessible from Vandy's campus. Don't skimp on the larger shareable plates - the small side dishes are what makes the meal delicious!! We got the Bulgogi Jungol which was perfect for a cold winter night in Nashville. Service was excellent. I really hope this place does well so the range of east Asian food in Nashville can continue to grow!! read more

So happy I found this place! Really exceptional Korean food. I stopped in for lunch and was delighted at all the yummy sounding menu options. I really like how the menu was separated by large plates, small plates, and lunch specials. It all sounded so good I ended up ordering two lunch specials: the grilled fish & the tofu stew! Both were really really good. Tofu stew is my usual go to, and this one was one of my favorites I've ever had. And the grilled fish sounded too good to not try, and I'm so happy I did because it was also really yummy. I also want to compliment their Bon Chan - it's also exceptional. I had to get seconds of those too haha! Inside seating is really nice in presentation and comfort. They have some tables, some booth seating, and bar seating! Overall I'd say this is one of the best Korean food experiences I've had and I cant wait to come back! read more

Onda - Inside pic from entrance - Korean Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This is a great new Korean restaurant in midtown. The food is incredible. I've been twice now, and loved it each time. The food is served with traditional banchan. My favorite dish was the perfectly cooked grilled fish. The service was super friendly. The menu is great, not overly long, making it easy to pick and not stressful. The ambiance inside is great. Plenty of seating, great lighting. Parking is a bit sticky, expect to pay for parking, unsure if they validate inside or not! read more

Onda - Spicy pork bulgogi - Korean Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I live close to ON DA, saw it open, and kept saying I have to try it. I finally did. Honestly, , this restaurant is in my top 3 in Nashville, a hidden gem. I am not a review writer, so this is truly based on experience. This is my 4th visit, definitely not my last. firstly ambiance, awesome. feels comfy, and so much fun to watch others enjoying their food On that note, every time I have been here, the clientele is a mixture of Koreans and partners. doesn't that tell you something? The staff, nothing but compliments. attentive, so helpful. 10 out of 10, I've got to the point now, I ask for Cherry. But don't take my suggestion. everyone here, rates high marks OK, the food, I'm 50% through the menu now. isn't that a good reference. don't you hate a menu with a massive listing of choices? For me alarm bells, not here. Try it, everything is wonderful!!! read my review here this this is really good to pair. Let me see oh yeah I'm go. Leave. If you said there's something wrong that I needed to read more

amazing korean spot in nashville tbh i was worried that my gf and I wouldn't find good korean food in Tennessee. often times when we travel down south, we always crave our home cuisine but it's hard to find quality korean food the further we get from home however, luckily my gf found this wonderful restaurant Onda! direct korean translation of Onda (온다) means "i'm coming" as in you're telling someone else "you're on the way" and that name fits perfectly because we're definitely coming back the next time we are in nashville the place ambience was very cute. great service but the decor made the experience whole. lots of dark green and gold in the interior and it made the place feel very home like we got 3 dishes. galbi tang (갈비탕), LA kathi and the stir fried udon and everything just hit the spot. very authentic to taste and kudos to the chefs preparing the food. all presented nicely and the flavors didn't feel like it was imitating korean flavors but truly were korean awesome restaurant and looking forward to coming back! read more

Heard this place was open so my boyfriend and I hopped right on to trying it. We both are LOVE Korean food so we had to give it a try. Such an authentic spot and that just warms my heart so much. Nashville tends to lack authenticity when it comes to Asian cuisine but bless, that this restaurant has opened! Their food was delicious, interior was so cute and clean, service was superb. Will definitely come back with more folks as they have large plates which are great for groups but also their "small" plates are also fantastic. Highly recommend read more

Great service, lovely ambiance, and the food was delicious. First time here for lunch with a few coworkers and we ordered a variety of dishes but my fave was the KFC, soondabu ramen, and the banchans. All was just super yummy! read more

I'm always hesitant to try a new restaurant so soon after opening. But the food and service were wonderful! This is a great place to bring colleagues, friends and/or family to introduce them to Korean food if they have not tried it before. The menu has several classic options with a modern approach and some fun cocktails. I ordered Bibimbop one of my fave dishes for lunch. All the ingredients were incredibly fresh and the beef was flavorful. It did not include the crunchy rice at the bottom of the bowl but the portion was sizeable and the flavors were all there. The banchan (side dishes) were also flavorful and authentic. I hope to try the shaved ice with red beans next time for dessert! The interior of the restaurant is modern with a nice full length bar. The location in midtown can result in difficulty with street parking but there is a parking lot around the block. I am SO glad to see a Korean restaurant that is nearby that is open 7 days/week. I look forward to my next visit! read more

Korean barbecue in the form of LA Galbi is very dependably good. Here at Onea is was nearly inedible, tough and salty, with not a hint of the fruity delicious dressing one would expect. With a limited set of banyan accoutrements and a strangely limited menu, this is a Korean restaurant to avoid. read more

I was visiting my parents from LA and we ordered takeout and this was fantastic. I live in Koreatown Los Angeles where there are so many fantastic options to pick from and this stacks up with the best in Los Angeles. We ordered the L.A Kalbi ,the bulgogi yaki udon, and the mondoo and everything was fantastic seasoned extremely well and great portions. Hoping next time we visit to dine in and try their cocktails as well! read more

Service was prompt and very attentive. We were sat immediately and the server was at our table 30 seconds later. Very attentive staff. Great ambience, great location. And the food. Wow.
