King's Restaurant (Korean) in Fridley, MN is delicious! We ordered Naeng-Myeon buckwheat noodle…read moresoup, which is served cold and only available in the summer. The buckwheat noodles are very chewy and served with pickled white radish slices and julienned cucumbers, half of a hard boiled egg, and 2 thin slices of beef brisket. Note: the Korean buckwheat noodles in this soup are slight translucent and chewy, and not the same type as the Japanese buckwheat noodles, which are not as chewy. The noodle soup is accompanied by 2 bottles sauces: hot/spicy yellow mustard and vinegar to add per your desired spice and sour level. The soup was light, slightly seasoned with a hint of sour and savoriness. We also ordered the jap chae glass noodle stir-fry which was delicious, but it was lacking in beef and a bit too oily. It had a few slices of red bell pepper, yellow onions, and green onion /scallions. The glass noodles are made from sweet potatoes and are chewy in texture, but not as chewy as the buckwheat noodles. The galbitang short beef rib soup (#26) is a light soup served hot (not spicy) with a few pieces of beef short ribs, glass noodles, white radish, and egg drop. King's Restaurant has reduced their portion of glass noodles in recent years and it's lacking substance to fill the tummy, especially with an increased price of $21.95. They do give a small bowl of white rice and 4-5 types of banchan (side dishes, like Kimchi, blanched bean sprouts, fish cake, kimchi cucumbers, blanched broccoli). Service is on the most part friendly and semi-attentive, depending on the server and if they're busy. King's is recently (2026) charging for their buckwheat Korean tea, which was previous complimentary. Ambiance is casual with booths and tables. They can host larger parties, up to 8 or so people, but it's best to call ahead to check. Free parking is plentiful, but it can get filled on the side lot nearest to the restaurant when it's busy. There's another larger parking lot adjacent to the restaurant that is never completely filled so parking should not be an issue. Would I go again-maybe. Their increased prices and smaller portions (jap chae with almost no beef and noodle dishes with a small portion of glass noodles), it's starting to give me pause, especially when I have other choices of Korean restaurants in the Twin Cities. King's is by far the most expensive Korean restaurant in the Twin Cities and their portion sizes are shrinking to where the value is lacking, especially if you're really hungry.

I came here for lunch on a weekday. I ordered a Japchae, taste amazing. The banchan that were…read morebrought out were delicious. The service was OK. The waiter seems a little judgemental when I requested that there would be no bell peppers in my Japchae. (Sorry, personal preference; don't like the taste or smell.) The tone felt a little judgy when he said, "just meat and noodles?" While I was eating, it wasn't checked on. (Maybe it is because I'm Asian?) Otherwise, it was good. I got to fulfill my Japchae needs with some banchan!

The staff were friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Hot Pot: We were told that we could have 4 both options. We only did 2 and I thought it was pretty good. It took a while for the broth to boil. They have lots of options for proteins, soybean, vegetables, and noodles/rice. They also offer lobster tail! They did give us two sets of ladles. One had a strainer on the bottom, while the other is a regular ladle. BBQ: I like their protein options, which includes short ribs and an 8-oz ribeye. The food came with 3-4 side dishes, but we didn't eat those. I forgot what they were. Pricing: It is competitive with other local hot pot and BBQ. They do have a $15/lbs fee for wasting food. They have rules written on their menu. Parking: Free parking that is shared with other businesses on the strip.

It's a small thing, but drinking flat syrup really sets a bad tone for the rest of the meal. We also tried the Bulgogi Fries. They were fine, I guess, but definitely not worth what they're charging. They are way overpriced for what you actually get. The food didn't get much better from there: Chicken Fried Rice: This was extremely "normal." There wasn't anything special about it, but for some reason, it had a weird hit of sugar in it that shouldn't have been there. Japchae: This was the real disaster. Japchae is not supposed to be sweet, but this version was sugary and cloying. It was honestly the grossest japchae I've ever had, and I've been eating that dish my entire life. Ultimately, the whole meal just felt like an exercise in late-stage capitalism: mass-produced, overpriced, oversugared and poor quality. People really shouldn't be eating this kind of food. Save your time and your cash and go somewhere else.

One section is a traditional Korean BBQ and you cook your own food. The other section is where you can place orders and they cook the food for you. The Korean BBQ side was pretty packed. Dong Hae 2 is located in a shopping plaza so there is plenty of parking. We ordered the AYCE which consists of Korean BBQ and Sushi. The cost was $45/person. They give you order sheets and you fill them out for each order. For the Sushi, we concentrated on the Salmon, Yellowtail, Escolar Sashimi (which you can order 4 at a time). For nigiri , we tried our standard Yellowtail, Salmon, Eel, Escolar. The sashimi was pretty good and the size of the pieces was generous. The sushi was okay. A little too much rice for our taste. For the Korean BBQ, we got the Kalbi, Brisket, Pork Belly, and New York Steak (1 per person). Each portion was a generous size and should be taken into account when managing your portions. The mood was very pleasant and everybody seemed to be enjoying their meals. The servers were also all very attentive.
