Little Korea in City of London, Westminster

Cosy little place with good food.

Our oldest son and his girlfriend visit this restaurant every time they're in London, and rave about it. Having gone myself on Friday night I can see why. A warm welcome, very clean and inviting and absolutely delicious food. We sat in the window and watched the world go by, eating BanBan chicken and prawn rice. Delicious and highly recommended.

Very friendly service, which we really like, good food, and good prices. Actually we were looking for another Korean restaurant, but found Little Korea and were pleased with that. On top my daughter discovered greetings from Ateez to the restaurant and for her, that has been an Atiny for years, it just made it even better :)

I've been to Little Korea twice now and it's my favourite place to go in Soho! Everyone is so friendly and provides excellent service - all smiles and very helpful! Very pleased with the ability to order at the table, very accomodating for those with food allergies, also halal friendly making it easier for me and my friends to find good Korean food for all of us with dietary restrictions. I will definately be back! Props to the owner, for his kind service and care for every customer, brings a smile to know he cares so much for the restaurant.

A little autentic paradise in Chinatown. The food was excellent and the place is sooo homie. We felt at easy and had a heartful meal in the middle of the lunch rush 🥰 Bonus point that you can let the cook know about your food allergies with every dish 🥹

This is a gem of a restaurant. We stumbled on it after wandering around Chinatown, and I am glad we did. To find such an authentic and relaxed atmosphere in the middle of such a busy part of the world was a delightful reprieve. The food was beautiful and served quickly. Myself and my husband are gluten free vegetarian and vegan collectively, and we had plenty to chose from. I had a delicious bibimap and he had the sizzling tofu plate and veg tempura, which was extremely crisp and fresh. The homemade kimchi was yummy, spicy and crunchy! The owner was on the floor all night and he was a delightfully friendly, generous man. For a main, side dish, and drink each, we paid £65 including a decent tip. We left absolutely stuffed, so it was great value. This was the most memorable meal of our short trip to London. There is also a signed poster from KPop group BlackPink at the back of the restaurant. I would definitely eat here again!

Staff were nice and accommodating. The tteokbokki was little bit salty. Other than that food was good.

The quality of the food here is exceptional, not only in terms of ingredients but also in the presentation. The owner is Korean and both him and the staff are very kind, and it's no surprise that this spot has been visited by popular Kpop groups like Ateez and Ive—I can totally understand why! The dishes are packed with flavor, and the attention to detail in both the taste and appearance really sets this place apart. The prices are fair, especially considering the quality, the generous portions and London prices. It’s one of those places where you truly feel like you're getting your money's worth. My boyfriend and I enjoyed it so much that, during our three days in London, we came here twice! However, a little heads-up: in the evenings, especially on weekends, there can be a bit of a wait. Since the entrance is quite small, you may have to wait outside until a table becomes available. But trust me, it’s worth the wait! If you're looking for a memorable dining experience, this restaurant is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

Amazing food. Lovely staff. Great atmosphere. Will definitely be back. Thank you.

Very nice service!! Eating delicious food and something different.

An inconspicuous place, but tasty food and friendly service.

Prices are great for London. The service is super friendly (especially the owner) and the food is delicious 😋 a 10/10

Very welcoming and pleasant staff. The food is extremely good. I highly recommend.

Literally the best Korean restaurant I have even been to outside of South Korea🤩 my favourite restaurant!

I went for dinner me my husband and his friend, I informed the waiter that am pregnant, after that the manager or owner came to my table to explain all the healthy dishes that I could go for, he was amazing!!!!!! Super friendly he even offered me a stew on the house!!!!!!! The welcoming and the kindness of this owner or manager, I have never experienced it before nowhere else , I will definitely come back!!! The food was spectacular!!!! Everything home made and fresh , I definitely recommend to try the mix fried chicken it’s amazing !!!! I definitely recommend this restaurant if you looking for good Quality Korean food!!!! Thank you so much for making may dinner special ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Absolutely wonderful 😍 brilliant food and sooooooo yummy! Exactly what I was looking for with the Jajangmyeon❤️ definitely will come back again 😁

It was my husband's birthday and the staff surprised us with a small cake! It was the most wonderful surprise to our trip! We come here after every paycheck and recommend to all when we can!

The food is amazing, the people are amazing and sweet

An incredible authentic Korean restaurant - the menu has anything I'd want and the portions are wonderfully cooked and plentiful. Owner is lovely too!

Tasty and spicy food, great service, prices werent too bad.

Cozy atmosphere and very good food! Excellent service and dishes arrived quickly

Disappointing and overpriced almost Feels like a ripoff For two mains and a starter, paid £69, which is far too overpriced for the below-average quality of food we received. The dishes were underwhelming and definitely not worth the high price tag. Apparently they also add more than 12% gratuity to the bill without mentioning it so be aware of that when paying. If you’re not paying close attention, you’d miss it. You have to spot it yourself and ask them to remove it if you’re not ok with it, which feels rather deceptive. Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant based on my experience. I won’t be returning.

Very friendly owners, efficient service, good food

I really wanted to eat Korean food while traveling in France, so I stopped by as soon as I got to London! I ate kimchi stew, kimchi pork, and meat dumplings, and I think I said it 20 times while eating it because it was so delicious. The rice is so sticky and delicious!! They said they made the cucumbers themselves, and it was so delicious that I ate it all up. The owner took care of the customers by asking them to tell him if they needed anything, and was very kind :) He was very kind and it was delicious, so it was a pleasant meal.

Staffs are nice, food is ok. But I ordered vegetable Mandu (8£) and Rabokki (14,9£) with my little daughter, and they charged me 31,39£ in total. I don’t know how do they calculate the price, but it’s definitely much higher than written on Menu. I feel scammed…

Lovely cozy little spot in Chinatown with really friendly service and a great place for good Korean food and drinks! Peak Saturday night time as well and we were able to get a table no problem :)

Cute little place with good cheap food. Had a great moment. The server was really nice, he even offered me a sweet drink because I wasn’t used to spicy food. Recommend this place.

Delicous food and very friendly staff! Had a chicken udom noodle stir fry and it was hands down the best one I have ever had. I went with a group of friends and we shared the bill, and payment was easy to split, and had no hassle. Prices are very reasonable for the quality! Definitely worth a visit if you are around near lunch time

Delicious food, gluten-free menu available. Nice place, will come back again.

Good food, good neighborhood, maybe priced a touch too high. Would recommend.

Update: came back again and really enjoyed it. Very friendly owner and good food. Saved as a favorite. Friendly owner/staff and prompt service for a late Sunday dinner. The Ban chicken was very good - crispy on the outside with flavorful chicken in the inside. The banchan sides were limited and had to be purchased separately. Also no premium meats like Galbi (beef short ribs) on the menu. A good goto spot for Korean food in the heart of Chinatown when your taste buds are craving some Seoul food ;)

Amazing food plus great service by staffs , enjoyed alot , will visit again . Highly recommended❤️❤️

Stir-fried pork… The taste is a famous restaurant in Korea too ㅠㅠ I ate it all! The owner is very kind and the best👍🏻👍🏻

The staff was super friendly, not expensive, as the location is excellent! The restaurant looks a bit old-fashioned and needs to be cleaned, obviously. Food was okay.

My favourite place in London - the most wonderful atmosphere, incredible staff, and delicious food !

Very nice place. Halal chicken and seafood of course. Service couldn’t be better, very friendly, good recommendations, genuinely looked after.

Been here a few times and food and service have been great every time. Definitely a strong recommendation to anyone who wants to try authentic Korean food.

Very Friendly environment,good service ,cheerful staffs,tasty food.

The food was so amazing I nearly cried.

I have been to this restaurant as a regular customer for over 6 years. There’s a reason I come to this Korean restaurant over others because of the quality, taste, and service. I first discovered this restaurant when I moved from Korea as a student, wanting comfort meals that reminded me of home, and ever since then, whenever I want a taste of Korea I go here. My favorite restaurant in London. 사랑해요 리틀코리아 ❤️

Ordered a beef noodles for 16 poinds but didn't meet my expectations because when i tasted it, it came out like from a packet instant noodles. The meat wasnt from the brisket and it came out from a packet slices beef that you buy from market for hotpot. Ive told the main waiter (girl) that i couldve gone to lanzhou beef noodles which is cheaper (leicester sq) where the broth came from actual beef pot but chose to be at this restaurant because i want korean food at the same time. The server guy was baffled that i dont want to eat at first when i said can you please take it back as i dont want it, i am asian, i know my NOODLES! Pls dont question me why nextime! Overall it was fair that they took that off my bill.

The food and service were excellent. Waiter was attentive and accommodating.overall we had a great experience in this restaurant. Thank you little Korea.

I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The kimchi was exceptional, reminding me of the authentic flavors straight from a Korean friend's kitchen. I even take out for laters. The customer service was also top-notch, making the visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for those seeking a genuine taste of Korean cuisine.

Amazing food with a equally amazing hospitality from the staff! Definitely a good place to check out when visiting China Town!😁🫰🏻

Good food, but absurd to pay a mandatory £5 tip. They add it to the bill without asking. In the end you spend 20-25 each to eat a dish and a starter.

A great Korean restaurant, with a wide variety of dishes. I had chicken udon soup and it was delicious. The other customers' dishes were tempting. The staff was friendly and very efficient, we waited barely 15 minutes to be served. As for the atmosphere, I can only praise it because, being a fan of Korean music, I was pleasantly surprised to see the autographs of the artists of my favorite group on the walls. There was also music which was very pleasant. As for the price, I find that they are just as varied as the dishes. I highly recommend!

This is a Korean restaurant I found while traveling in Italy, France, and England. It was the best experience out of all three countries. It was run by a Korean owner himself and he welcomed me so warmly that it felt like I was back home! The food was delicious and they provided refills of rice and kimchi so that I could eat comfortably and comfortably. If you are thinking about a Korean restaurant, be sure to go here!!

I loved the place! And the food was delicious too! The staff was so nice asking me if all was ok too 🥺 I really recommend it!!

It was SO GOOD. The food was delicious. The owner is sweet and very attentive to his customers. He will always help you if you need advice on how to eat the food or which way is better. Also, I talked with him about IVE. They've been there, and if AnYujin searched that place and tried it, then it's worth going there. It was worth the money. So good. Ateez was there as well.

The best Korean restaurant! The service was great!

We had some Korean dishes here like deep fried chicken, bibimbob and deopbobs. My family really enjoyed these foods and all the staffs here were all nice. Thank you.

A Korean restaurant I discovered after eating only greasy food. It was nice to meet the Korean owner and I was so thankful that he took care of me while I was eating. We were also given kimchi as a service and I enjoyed it thankfully.

Spectacular glazed fried chicken, and very friendly staff

Been here three times has been amazing every time. How anyone could give it less than 5 stars amazes me. We always go for for the self cooking options where we cook our food at the table.

Excellent Korean food, "brings me back to Soul" with some very good BBQ. Also very friendly and helpful staff. Thank you for a fantastic meal!

lovely service and great food!!! my favourite dishes were yangnyeom chicken and kimchi fried rice with cheese. if you're in chinatown or nearby, you should definitely try this place. from what i know, the chicken is halal. also, if you're a kpop fan, ive and ateez ate here!

Ordered a kimchi and pork rice on hotplate, there was only a half piece of pork :( told the waitress when she asked how it was and she just said ok thank you

Best korean food in Soho, large portions, good quality-price ratio and very kind staff. I recommend trying pork mandu dumplings!

The owner is very kind. This is a Korean restaurant where you can choose without hesitation because the Korean menu is surprisingly diverse and delicious. I recommend it.

It was very tasty, pleasant atmosphere, delicious beer and cool emotions! Will definitely come again next time I visit London! Дякую! 감사합니다!!

Little Korea is a go to for me when in London. Food is always delicious!

Soo delicious food and very sympathetic and kind owner. I definitely recommend it.

delicious food, good vegetarian options, lovely atmosphere and lovely staff! The man who was at the till was so friendly and smiley. Will visit again when I am next in London!

Such a kind and friendly atmosphere. The staff here are so kindhearted and take time to accommodate everyone who steps in. I was truly touched by the hospitality of the owner/cashier who works at the front desk. The tteokbokki and egg fried rice was tasty too!

Visited on a whim with friends and whilst the staff were very friendly and we were expecting good things, we were a bit disappointed. The food was average at best, the Korean chicken was overcooked and we ended up leaving it. The chicken bites, overcooked too. Very chewy as a result. The meal was quite expensive for two people, but London prices I guess. I would not be in a hurry to visit here unfortunately, nor recommend.

Food was amazing, lovely service and nice and beautiful characteristics location.

Nice little Korean restaurant. The jjajang Myun was good.

A nice korean restaurant with very friendly staff :) I had the fried chicken and it was really tasty! At first I thought the price was a bit high with 25£ for 6 pieces but trust me, those pieces were very big so it was definitely enough and worth it.

Great service, so welcoming and warm. Food also delicious.

Absolutely delicious! Everything was fresh and yummy. The owner is incredibly sweet and kids and servers were delightful. Anytime I am in London, this will always be my first stop😋

Probably the BEST korean food i have ever tried in my life!! The Mandu was so flavourful and perfectly done as well as every other dish! Staff here are so lovely and made us feel so welcomed snd comfortable, would recommend this place if you are in china town and fancy something different! Will definitely be back.

The best Korean chicken in London! It's the only place where I managed to find authentic Yangnyeom Chicken, and I will definitely be coming back to this place ❤️

Favourite place in London! Beat chicken and such lovely staff. Will definitely come back ❤️

I love this place!!! I don't like kimchi, but I always try it when I'm in korean restaurant and this were the first time I liked kimchi. It was delicious!! The rest of dishes were awesome too!! Definitely recommend thus place and can't wait to visit it again when I will come back to London!

Amazing gem of a restaurant! 13yo daughter picked it out 18months ago for her birthday meal and we regularly come back to London just to go here for dinner (we live an hour away by train) Never had a bad meal and I have tried a lot of dishes from the menu as I like to try something different each time we visit. She has the galbi-tang everytime! Staff are lovely, kind and very quick. Love that there is kpop playing in the background and the atmosphere is always fun but relaxed.

It's the first time I eat in a Korean. The food was great and the service very pleasant, highly recommended.

It was very good and the service was very nice. The staff was very polite and welcoming. 😆

the food was so delicious and the staff very welcoming. There are a lot of choices, the service is pretty fast. I recommend this place 100%

Located right in the centre of chinatown, this is one of the best Korean places in London. I've been here now 5 times, and every time it has amazing service and food. It has a nice cosy, traditional atmosphere, which is made even better by the hospitality of the people who work there. They seem like they genuinely care about their customers and are all so lovely. My favorite dishes are samgyeopsal (pork belly) either in the bbq set or with rice, the kimchi jeon (kimchi pancake), tteokbokki and yangnyeom chicken. Their kimchi is also amazing, really nice flavor and the perfect ripeness. The menu is very varied and very reasonably priced. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a casual dining experience, with quality food and service. Will definitely be back when I'm in London again!

Went to the this eatery on saturday. The food portion is big(I am a moderate size eater) and taste is delicious. The korean boss was there, friendly and polite. We had great meal there. Price wise, well it's london central. Had kimchi jigae, sundubu jigae and beef. My friend was a bit surprise when it didn't come with side dishes.

I really enjoyed this restaurant in Chinatown. The food is excellent, and the staff is very welcoming. I highly recommend it for Korean cuisine and would happily visit again.

The food was absolutely wonderful. The service was really good aswell. The owner was Very sweet and respectful. He made sure we had everything we needed and assured us to ask him for any help.

The owner was so kind and took good care of me, so I really enjoyed my meal!!!

The best kimchi ever, the owner is really nice, everything is clean and food with drinks are in good price and are everything is delicious! I really recommend this place!

We stopped in for lunch on a very busy Sunday in Chinatown. Wanted something other than regular Chinese so this hit all the spots. We enjoyed their Soy prawns, prawn and egg fried rice and a Kimchi Jeon pancake plus drinks. Not bad value. The staff were all super attentive with my 87-year old mother-in-law helping her in and out, up and down the steps and ensuring that things were cooked to her liking without much spice. Everyone was so polite and explained things very clearly to her. For us this human connection and service made the whole experience even more enjoyable...and memorable! What an awesome, relaxed, delicious lunch in bustling Chinatown! I would happily return for another meal.

Komsameda , am speechless towards service or food... love it...food mashta...

It tastes delicious even if Koreans eat it.

It's delicious. I feel like I'm in Korea.

Staff was so kind and the food was perfectttttt thankss

Nice food. Good service. Waiting time probably their weakness. Other than that, food is delicious.

Kimchi fried rice was good. But pork belly was too crunchy and hard. On lettuce, there was something white like egg white and worm. We couldn’t eat it. We told them but they charged everything as normal even 12.5% service charge.

The bibimnaengmyeon are perf for the weather right now! Perfect amount of spice in my opinion and a great portion size :) The staff was also super nice! They listened to my request well and were helpful.

This is a Korean restaurant directly managed by a Korean owner. There were quite a few Koreans, but the proportion of foreigners was high. I guess I was very hungry, so they gave me a refill of rice and kimchi. The food is clean and delicious. I recommend it.

Actually, scrumptious delicious mouthwatering food. I almost never go crazy about food, but omg, this was divine. I want to come back here asap. Also, the atmosphere amazing, K-pop songs in the background were pretty cool. Also, the service was amazing, and the waiters were so kind and friendly. I felt so welcomed. I actually love this place words cannot put my happiness and love for this place into a sentence.

The worst Korean food I've had abroad. I feel like my money was stolen.

Nice place, excellent food, friendly service. The fried chicken and the pork bulgogi are especially excellent. Very authentic taste.

In and around Chinatown I tried several Korean restaurants, but ended up going to this one. The owner recognized the Korean and spoke to him. They gave us kimchi and mixed coffee as a service and told us to ask for more if we needed it. The owner was a man with all the kindness in the world. I was so grateful that you were so kind and considerate. He also told us about pickpocketing cases and told us to be careful. You said you didn't know if kimchi would suit your taste, but It was really, really delicious. My husband, who ordered squid bulgogi, was also satisfied. I ordered tofu bibimbap and was surprised by the quantity. Contains various vegetables, I liked it because it tasted as healthy as if it were made at home. There were many foreign guests. It seemed like a very popular restaurant. The staff were also friendly. Once again, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the male boss. I will cheer you on so that you can make more and more money.

the staff was very kind. the place is very cozy and the food so delicious. would recommend 10/10

everything is good about this restaurant.

Absolutely loved this place ! The japchae was savoury and the quantity very generous. The owner and waiters were extremely kind and attentive. 100% recommend
