I am not the biggest fan of Korean food. That being said, the food here was amazing! I had the shrimp with vegetables in the house sauce and everything was hot and fresh and so tasty. My boyfriend got the Kalbi, which he is a big fan of, and he said it was the best he's ever had! We also got the Jap Chae and it too was hot and fresh and delicious. All of the sides were so great and they brought us more when we were running low without even asking. The service here was absolutely fantastic! All in all, I can not recommend this place enough! read more

Great service AND great food. What a breath of fresh air! The wife and I visited Stone for a Sunday dinner with friends, and there wasn't much of a wait. Our waitress was friendly and brought a high chair for our friends' toddler, and then happily brought us replacement stuff during the course of the meal when the toddler threw things on the floor. I felt bad, but this is a good data point that service is good here! The wife and I weren't too hungry, so we ordered the Hot Pot Bibimbap and Soft Tofu Soup ($24) to share. This was a little pricey but it was enough for the both of us. It was tasty and had a good amount of chicken, and the rice became nicely crisp from the hot stone pot. The tofu soup was very flavorful and had an ok amount of beef, clams and shrimp. I liked how I could choose how spicy the soup would be - from non-spicy to extra spicy. We also ordered the 10-piece Gyoza ($8) for the table to share. These were pan-fried perfectly to the optimal level of crispiness. Yum! Get this! Served with our meal were a few banchan dishes including a couple types of kimchi. The banchan were ok, but nothing in particular stood out. Overall, this was a solid choice for Korean food. I wouldn't mind coming back, except the 850 mile drive from home is a bit much. read more

Was looking forward to having some delicious fish roe tofu soup but was very dissapointed. Have eaten at other locations years ago and I guess things have changed a lot. The soon dooo boo was very different then before. It had none of the flavors I've come to expect and I could only taste a ketchup like flavor. Really dissapointing. Haven't tried anything else on the menu but I probably won't due to this experience. read more

It's been awhile since my last visit and I became intrigued after seeing combo specials listed on the menu. I placed my order via UberEats - a couple dollars more expensive - and it was ready on time. All the dishes were packed very well with the potentially leaky ones even wrapped in an extra layer of plastic bag. Banchans were tasty and come in 4oz containers for take-out. Mine included gamja jorim (potato braised in sweet soy sauce), kongnamul muchim (seasoned soybean sprouts), apple cabbage salad, oi muchim (spicy cucumber salad), and kimchi. Rice was freshly cooked. ----- Spicy Pork Bulgogi + Bibimbap Combo: served with a sizzling hot stone pot rice and side dishes ($25). The spicy pork bulgogi is Korean BBQ pork loin marinated in spicy Bulgogi sauce, although I thought it was only a just tiny spicy. Seasoning was good. I found the pork to be slightly tough. For the bibimbap, I picked beef as the protein. Bowl toppings were carrots, shiitake mushrooms, zucchini, bean sprouts, spinach, and egg sprinkled with seaweed. A tasty dish when mixed with rice and the gochujang sauce! Perhaps a bit pricey as the portions of each dish are smaller than if ordering separately, plus additional rice and banchans are not included. ----- Seafood Tofu Soup: soft tofu soup served with sizzling stone pot rice and side dishes ($14). Expect the soup to be majorly soft tofu with only a bit of seafood. Mine came with three small, whole shrimps and around five clam meats. A sufficient serving of soft tofu though! As for the broth, it had a good flavor and was on the saltier side as with any seafood-based broth. I had chosen mild as the spice level, but barely noticed any heat. ----- If dining indoors, the restaurant is spacious that only had two tables taken shortly after opening on Saturday. Hand sanitizer and even disposable gloves were offered by the entrance. The hostess was cheerful and wearing a mask. read more

After reading all the positive reviews from Yelp, we decided to give this a try and I am happy that I did! We ordered two items: Spicy Beef Brisket and Vegetable Soup ( Yuk Gae Jang ) US$13.00 4 stars The soup has a full body and hearty beef flavour, I ordered medium spice and it came perfectly that way, with tender strands of beef briskets and lots of vegetables this is a soup you can have for any mean and will still be a good choice, I also love their potato starch noodles as it gives the whole dish an interesting texture! Will be on the top of my list when I came here next time! Spicy Pork Bulgogi US$13.00 4 stars Mistakenly ordered this dish, but we are glad we did! The pork is marinated in Bulgogi sauce and then grilled, pork is still tender and succulent, each piece is coated with the spicy sauce, slightly on the sweet side but its the kind that you will savour and it actually balances out the spice. One special mention: all the Banchans were excellent!! Each dish has different texture and taste and compliments the main dish perfectly! Service is very efficient and friendly, our lady server constantly check in with us and fill our teas, no wonder this restaurant receives such high praise! Oh!! If you like the crispy rice from your stone bowl rice here's the place for it!! Check out my photos!! Verdict: Recommend!! read more

Came in on Christmas Eve for dinner for a party of 4. Have been here before but it has been some time since I last ate here. Area: Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking available, which is nice and convenient. Food: We ordered 5 dishes which was more than plenty for the 4 of us. Each was delicious, fresh and good portions. Service: Our server was fantastic. Prompt and very nice to us. She was attentive with water, checking in on us and ensuring we had everything we needed. A highlight. Inside: Place is clean, pleasant and comfortable. We sat at a booth which had plenty of space. We did not feel cramp nor did we sit too close to other tables. Overall: Very good. Family was happy. Food, service, convenience, all were very nice. I also give them extra stars since it was a holiday. We have had experiences where staff did not have the best spirts working on the holidays, however it was not the case here. Thank you to the staff at Stone Korean. read more

Grilled bulgogi and sundubu jjigae (spicy silken tofu soup) is such a great pairing for this fall weather. I really enjoyed this dinner from Stone Korean Restaurant in Redmond. The slices of chicken were marinated in a flavorful bulgogi sauce then grilled to slight caramelization. Bulgogi sauce has so many of my favorite things: soy sauce, brown sugar, Asian pear, garlic, ginger, black pepper, and sesame oil. The beef tofu soup balances it so well - spicy, silky, and warms your belly. Both entrees are served with plenty of rice and a great variety of banchan (side dishes). We ordered 2 separate entrees which fed 2 adults with leftovers to spare, but you can also get these two items as a combo. If you had to choose, are you Team Bulgogi? Or are you Team Jjigae? read more

Enjoyed it! We came here on a Friday evening (around 7pm) and waited about 10 minutes for a table. The staff were all friendly and attentive, and the food came out fairly quickly despite every table being full. We wanted to try a bit of everything, so we ordered the seafood pancake, soft tofu stew (extra spicy), and the half & half fried chicken. Seafood pancake: impressively not greasy! Many Korean pancakes at restaurants seem to be swimming in a pool of oil but despite being crunchy and fried, it doesn't have that overwhelmingly heavy, greasy feeling that others tend to do. It was a little dry, though. 3.5/5 Soft tofu stew: I liked that they gave you the option to order it in various levels of spice, so people can enjoy it even if they don't like things too spicy. It was pretty good, and they were generous with the meat and seafood. I'd like to see a raw egg in it, since soft tofu stew tends to be served with it to make it creamier and richer. 4/5 Half & half fried chicken: This Korean fried chicken is done well. It's got the right crunch and a light, thin batter that isn't too greasy or oily when eaten with fingers. The plain fried chicken is good (I'm not a plain chicken kinda girl), but the marinated chicken is delicious! The sauce is sweet and spicy but not overwhelmingly so. 4.5/5 Overall the food was good, and the service was great. We'll definitely be back to try more. The only downside to a packed restaurant is the noise level is through the roof. You almost have to yell across the table to talk to your group. Try to come during non-peak hours and it should be a bit quieter. read more

I found the need to give this restaurant a shoutout and I will tell you why. This restaurant was open for orders relatively late (during times like these) and I was heading home later than usual so I was grateful that it was available through UberEats. So I ordered the kalbi and the pork gyoza. I didn't take a picture of it because I was so excited eating it! When it arrived (relatively quickly) I gladly took everything to plate it for myself. I realized that though the price was a little higher than I liked (Pro tip: order it for pickup instead of a third party) the portions were enough for me to use for leftovers the following day. This is the case especially since the BBQ options (kalbi included) automatically have steamed rice and sides. So a person eating solo might get enough for their buck. The gyoza was the flaky fried variety which is relatively rare for me to find. My mom was so jealous when she saw I was eating it (over FaceTime) because she loves dumplings which are cooked in that manner the most. She loves it so much that she made me promise to buy it from this restaurant next time she is in town. If you love it too, I would recommend it. The kalbi was good as well. I had to stop myself from finishing it all in one round. The way they seasoned the meat should be applauded. If I had a eating partner, the amount of meat pieces might have been adequate in terms of serving. However, it was great for a special solo meal. Especially when you add the onions. And also when you add the sides too. You can definitely be full. As a caveat, I'm not an expert in Korean food (though I am a fan) so your mileage may vary in terms of how you enjoy this meal. Overall, I appreciated my meal especially since it had good quality despite the current situation and the timing of my order. I would recommend for a nice meal or a special occasion. I would love to visit it in person when things go back to normal. read more

17:00 Pm i entered this fine dining establishment on a Thursday night Upon walking in i was greeted by a happy lady, she walked me to the table i liked and give me water and fresh tea. I went to the wash room and it was very clean with paper available and soap and hot water. I ordered the #1 Bulgogi with bibimbop hot stone and seafood pancake. The flavor was just ok, wish the bulgogi had a little more savory flavor. Everything else was great. Customer service was professional and fast. I would return in the future, i also know the fried chicken is what they are known for as a chef specialty. All in all i am feeling full and happy, after a long days of work eating good is what I love read more

We were headed to Swish Swish and found this highly rated Korean restaurant and decided to come here and try this place out. First the good. This place does really have nice portions. We ordered the spicy seafood noodle, spicy bulgogi binbimbap, and noodles. The presentation was amazing! All the food including the side dishes were spot on and they all came together and promptly. We were ready to dig in! The bad. The seafood noodles used udon which was a little weird. The binbimbap's stone bowl was way too hot. The rice was scarred and even after mixing it was still scorching the contents. The noodles were underwhelming in my opinion. I am still wondering HOW is the reviews so high here. Am I not ordering the right food? Do I need to get the chicken wings? read more

Over the last ten or so years, this place has gone significantly down hill for me. From being a four star, to three, to my recent and last experience that brings them into unacceptable territory. I agree w/the other reviews that quality and consistency have both gone down hill, but that's just a downgrade to a 3 star rating in my book. In my mind they downgraded to 3 stars once they dropped Stone Korean Rice from their menu (but not the name) couple of years back (yelp photos are out of date). My last dinner there on 2/1/23 resulted in acute food poisoning that landed me in bed for three days. I experienced the full range of symptoms they associate w/bacterial poisoning (e.g. Salmonella). Source of poisoning was their Kalbi Dinner plate. It was my only meal that day, so no double guessing. As someone who frequents restaurants, one food poisoning is one too many and this restaurant is off my list for good. They are clearly overdue for a formal health inspection. read more

The waitress had such a bad attitude. The tofu soup was blend. Side dishes okay. Short ribs was good. I was given the bill was just give to us half way eating. The waitress walked by placed the check and just left, no words. We didn't ask for the bill, and we were far from done eating. There was two other tables that came in before us, and they didn't give them the bill. I told the waitress I don't understand why we were given the bill when we still had other stuff to order, she didn't give eye contact, said "no worries, we will just charge you more" and walked away. Basically, I would not recommend anyone to go. And I would never go back as well. read more

the food at this place is incredibly hit or miss. sometimes it tastes freshly made, and sometimes it tastes like it was made a while ago and with no passion for the food at all (tbh a lot of the korean food in this area just tastes really lifeless and average, though). i've ordered from this place five times now over five years, and three times it was average, one time it was good, and one time it was bad (bad meaning then bulgogi tasted sour, and the cucumber kimchi tasted like the cucumbers had gone bad) i've also tried a lot of different dishes from them: bulgogi, pajeon, japchae, ojingeobokkum, etc. (the banchan is also inconsistent with both kind and quality--but the normal cabbage kimchi is always good, at least) i particularly just want to say that the "spicy squid stir fry" is NOT ojingeobokkum; it's just, like... teriyaki... with squid. ojingeobokkum is one of my favorite korean foods, and it's pretty korean, like, i can sort of only find it in korea. so when i saw it in the menu, i was really excited--but... then it came out, and it was just... teriyaki... i was so disappointed yeah idk i should probably have been more sus when the menu was so huge, but... there are really slim pickings when it comes to korean food around here :/ read more

Worst place ever. They were rude to customer. Will never again come here. Came into the place at 8:45pm although the waiter gave me a table a rude Asian lady already started cleaning the place and said they couldn't serve us. read more

Really love this place! Lots of great banchan to enjoy. The combos are a great way to go. The kimchi tofu beef soup is so good! The seafood pancake is really big and delicious.

Edit: The manager did apologize to us and offered us a free meal. While we appreciate that, we had to decline. It is unfortunate that we can no longer go back to this place which we frequented since the year 2017. All because of a selfish customer and a crew who didn't treat the situation with empathy and understanding. Oh well! Don't bother coming here with younger kids! We frequent this place but had a horrible experience today. We had come in today with our 1 year old and 4 yr daughter at around 5:30p. Our 1 year old was unusually fussy because of hunger and we were trying our level best to calm him down. However an unsympathetic customer complained and the management told us to move over to another spot in the corner. The restaurant has every right to highlight concerns but the way it was done was rude and downright hostile. We talked to the customer that made the complain and was giving dirty looks from the very beginning. We tried to appeal to the counter lady that stuff like this happens with younger kids and to have a heart. They didn't care. The younger waiter just said "Don't come back again!" Well we won't and good riddance! Hey but they have good food! So if the stuff above doesn't bother you, go right ahead and visit. read more

I'm torn. 25% of the time, they get it right. 75% of the time, THEY SIMPLY DON'T GIVE A $#!T. It wouldn't be so bad if they just got it wrong on occasion, but this restaurant, and you can literally see it on the wait staff's faces, simply doesn't give a crap. The food is an embarrassment to Koreans and the Korean heritage; the owner and workers' work ethic resembles that of a bitter teenager being asked to take out the garbage; and the cooks must change out quite often because the same food tastes completely different almost every visit. The floors seem to be cleaner though. At one point in time, I remember almost slipping and falling when my tennis shoes slipped on a patch of grease, only to find out that the "patch" encompasses the entire dining hall. At least the receipt doesn't start with "18%=xxx" gratuity chart like most places. If the owners are reading this: GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER. read more

I come here frequently for my Korean food fix because it is super close to where I live. Pros: - Good tasting food -- depending on the day - Side dishes are always on point! - Service is fast and friendly (even on busy days) - Good selection of options (cold and hot noodles, bibimbap, wings, soups and meats) - Can accommodate groups Cons: - On the pricier side - Quality isn't consistent to justify some of the steep prices If you're in the Redmond area, I recommend this place to try out if you're craving Korean food. If you live far, I would consider other options outside of Redmond. read more

Food has stopped being consistently tasty. Plus more than half the time I go there the server brings drinks out holding the top of the glass with their filthy fingers. The last time (also the last time i will ever go) I went i told the server the way they serve me there is like serving an animal. I've been to Korea many times and have never been served glasses by the rim. I've also never noticed the servers doing thus with their Asian customers. So in conclusion. If you want inconsistent tasting soups and want to be served like a dog, this place is for you. read more

KFC = FTWWW! I've been wanting to eat at Stone Korean Restaurant for so long now, specifically for that Korean Fried Chicken and finally, I conquered. I had a joint birthday party with my friend here, so we made a reservation for our large group, which the restaurant was easily able to do. And when we needed to get there earlier than initially planned, Stone was very accommodating and made sure we didn't have to wait too long for a table. Service was fantastic! Staff was super friendly and sociable; and with our large party, they frequently checked in with us. Also, we were pleasantly surprised that they were able to split checks with no problem at all, unlike at many other restaurants. Food was yummmmy! A bunch of us ordered different plates and everyone shared the KFC, which comes with 12 pieces. You can customize the chicken to original or spicy or half and half. For entrees, you also get UNLIMITED banchan (loved the fish cakes!). I was able to try multiple dishes, which were all good, but must say the chicken was by far, my favorite. And ya know - I normally love spicy anything, but I actually preferred the original chicken here, as I thought it was perfectly seasoned and needed nothing else but the naturally juicy flavor from the chicken and its nice outer crunch. Mmmm hmmm! Such a fun and wonderful experience at Stone! Glad to have finally visited and tried so many different dishes, especially the KFC! read more

Stone is one of our go-tos for Korean tofu. It may not have the fancy fish appetizer and stone bowl rice, but the soup is always on point. Their spiciest broth is a bit too burning for me, but medium is always perfect for me. I usually go for the kimchi with pork soft tofu and leave with a smile on my face every time. read more

My girlfriend and I ordered Combination #8. Kalbi + Soft Tofu Soup and Steam Rick. Added Seafood Pancake. Seafood pancake is a good size and yummy. I like dipping sauce and make pancakes better taste too. 1 order Hot Spicy Tofu with beef pot and Kalbi combo just good for 2 people. Tofu soup taste ok but plz add more beef. Anyway taste good! I added 1 star! Always order extra spicy....better taste and keep hot! It's freezing weather and eat a spicy tofu pot with fish eggs. I like hot stone pot with rice...so good! 6 small dishes are good too. But waitresses are not coming to give me extra tea. I want them to attention to the customers more. And it was cold inside the restaurant. Plz keep inside the restaurant warm!!!!! read more

Best Korean food in all of Seattle. Best Korean fried chicken . Trust me I have tried a lot lol. Their sides are unmatched and quality is top notch. Soups are phenomenal and authentic in flavor.

I was in town 3 days and I Uber'd here twice. Menu is broad and food is authentic and amazing. Definitely recommend.

Great place with great food, but service is slow and it's pretty pricey. A friend and I came by for dinner and there was a pretty short line. There didn't seem to be any host/hostess and the process was simply to write your name on a piece of paper and wait until you're called. We only waited a little bit until we were seated. We were given menus by our server, and then they disappeared for a while. We couldn't order or get our drinks until a while in. We ordered the seafood pancake to share, and I got a kalbi + seafood tofu soup combo. The seafood pancake is listed as an appetizer but it actually didn't come until after out main dishes were served. The seafood pancake itself is hugeeeeee, but delicious. I really enjoyed my seafood tofu soup and it actually had a good amount of seafood as well. The kalbu was also good, but I felt the price of the tofu soup and kalbi were pretty high for the amount of food you got. They do have the side dishes that come with your meal but we found getting refills was extremely slow and we actively had to seek out someone to ask. Overall, really good food, but slow service was the main con. I would definitely come back on a less crowded day/time. read more

This was my first time at Stone. The parking is plentiful, and it was a spot my friends really like. I decided to come here for lunch with 5 others, and the restaurant is large inside and can accommodate a lot of people. They run a lunch special where you can get $14 for beef bulgogi, which comes with rice and all 12 of the banchan. We also ordered a seafood soondubu, which was $13. I usually order spicy, but my friend can not handle spicy so we order non spicy (white). I ended up adding some kimchi juice from the banchan into the soondubu to add more flavor, because I though that it could have been better. Overall, I've had better korean food before and could use more flavor. Good lunch price, and I would return. read more

The service has never been great at this location. The parking can be tricky during rush hours despite having a plaza of parking. The indoor doesn't look super clean and bright. During my last visit I ordered online and picked up in store. 10 minutes later they called to tell me that they missed an item in my pickup order and asked me to drive back. Nope, I'm not going to waste 20 minutes just to pick up an item you missed. They didn't offer refund to the missed item until I had to call them again. I'm not coming back again. read more

The lack of Korean food is really evident on the Eastside of Seattle, so this place will have to do for now. There can be waits at peak hours, but I've had no problems going off-peak hours and getting a table twice so far. The menu is basic and simplified (for the non-Korean community I guess) Here's a breakdown of things we've tried so far: --Chicken Wings: Not exactly like how NYC or Cali would do Korean fried chicken but the crispiness is there. Despite the flavor issue, the wings are slightly larger than average. --Veggie Pancake: crispy and not overloaded too much annoying green onion --Tofu Soup: Decent but could be a tad cheaper in price. --Hot Pot Bibimbap: Ordered twice so far and haven't been disappointed. The portion size is more filling than it appears initially. The small complimentary banchan plates are on a daily rotating basis. Favorites are the broccoli, potatoes and fish cakes. Not a big fan of kimchi in general though. Front of the house is mostly non-Korean, but service is pretty quick and it's close to authentic as you can get in this area. read more

I have to mention this restaurant. Their fried chicken is out of this world. Not exactly Korean food but it seems it's becoming a norm for them. It's always clean here and they give pretty good side dishes too. First time I ate here it seemed too chain restaurant look to it and basic but the food was great. It's definitely one of my comfort food place now. Oh, also, they are not a chain but owned by one family, I found out and now they opened another restaurant in Seattle! So, I guess they are a chain now? lol. read more
