Horrific. Hands-down the worst Korean I've ever had. Tiny portions of overly salted...stuff. Kimchi didn't taste right (not sour, not spicy, just bleh), jap chae looked like good portion, but was just saltysaltysalty draped over pile of rice. Portion of rice that came with jigae was actually bigger than the soup...which had little to no flavor other than salt. read more

Decided to give this a try, problem with restaurants around UK is that they are usually over priced. I felt like this restaurant was not too expensive for what was provided. The restaurant is small but quiet, will wrought space between tables. Servers are very attentive to take your order, bring out food and drinks and to take away finished plates. Staff were very friendly. The kimchi and soup was nice starter, kimchi had good amount of spice, cucumber was refreshing. The soup had more flavor than usual. The soup was hot as heck, give it a second to cool down. The flavor was good and really enjoyed the egg, adding to creaminess with the tofu. I had mussels and shrimp. The shrimp was slightly over cooked. The mussels were a bit more fishy that usual. But over was tasty dish. The cinnamon iced tea was good, not sure if refills are provided or cost extra as it was not offered. But food did come out quickly. read more

A Lexington staple! I've been coming here for over a decade and there isn't a bad thing on the menu, although I usually order the spicy bulgogi, bibimbop, or steamed dumplings. They used to have great sushi, too! Quality food and great portions at a very reasonable price. Complimentary kimchi and miso soup with each meal. Small restaurant but the service is always fast and friendly. Highly recommend checking it out! read more

We have enjoyed creating a tradition of eating at Han Woo Ri before we go weeknight grocery shopping. It is our way of romanticizing a mundane activity. At this restaurant, the service and attention to detail make us feel welcomed and cared for. I have a food allergy to beef and pork, and the staff have gone above and beyond to make sure my meal is allergen free. They also bring us unlimited amounts of kimchi, probably more kimchi than one should consume on a daily basis. We love the environment in the restaurant and in the entire building of shops. Thank you for making our weeknights more fun! read more

Top notch! Highly recommended! We came to this place actually because we had fed up with the chicken dishes during our road trip. Did not really expect a lot at the beginning but it came surprisingly really good. We are a fan of Korean food and i can tell this restaurant serves authentic Korean food. We ordered Soon Do Boo Jigae, Pa Jun, and Dolsot Bibimbap. All of them are best. Even compared to some Korean restos in our place in the South. The only thing that makes it less authentic is having tempura, edamame, and sushis that give false Korean taste. I would change them to real Korean rolls / fries though like the kimbap. Another room for improvement is the korean set dishes, aka banchan, instead of only kimchi and miso soup (kimchi and miso soup are not really good match though). This will increase the Korean experience for dine in as well. Also a Korean bbq would be great, this would give different experience for the city as well. read more

This is my first Korean experience in Lexington. My friend took me here and it was really hard to tell if this was a restaurant from outside. The inside of the restaurant looked simple and the waiter was friendly and he showed us to our seats immediately. It is also close to campus, so good for a quick bite inbetween classes They start you off with a soup which I didn't like much. May be the soup is supposed to taste that way, but I am not a big fan. I order the spicy bulgogi which my friend suggested. It was served in a sizzling iron plate, and it was wonderful. The meat was well cooked, soft and tasty. The amount is less than a typical meal. But they also give you a small bowl of rice which makes up for it. read more

Wow! Although parking is rough in downtown Lexington, the two and a half block walk to get to this restaurant was so worth it! Really I would have walked 13 blocks if I knew what I was in for. Super nice staff and a very classy a casual atmosphere was the first thing I noticed. For dinner I ordered beef Bulgogi. The dish came with shredded carrots, thin sliced potatoes and a type of cabbage. I especially like the house made spicy sauce it reminded me of a stronger gochujang. We also had the vegetarian pan fried dumplings. These were extremely good and I could have sworn it was meat but it was tofu instead. Overall I would say that we will be back to try some more of Han Woo Ri's amazing food and welcoming vibe. We will certainly be back for more. read more

I've been here a few times now and it's always great. Cute and clean interior, consistent great service, and a great selection of Korean dishes to choose from. Today I ordered iced cinnamon tea, edamame, and bibimbab. The tea is delicious, sweet but not too much. Every entree comes with miso soup and kimchi, both of which are great little appetizers. The edamame was great and the bibimbab was amazing. Bibimbab is one of my favorite Korean dishes and Han Wo Ri does a great job at cooking it. read more

Yum! I love Korean food... it's probably one of my favorite cuisines... and this place does not disappoint! They are not always open, it seems like a family owned business (?), so make sure it's open when you want to go! I do which they provided true banchan (all the little bowls), but I was still happy to have kimchi! I ordered the Soon Doo Boo which is a silky tofu soup, it was delicious. Very spicy but I like that. Let it cool down a bit when they bring it out, it's boiling at delivery and will burn the shit out of your mouth if you let it!! It had a few bites of seafood and whole egg in it, but lots of yummy tofu. Came with a side of rice, shredded potatoes, kimchi, and miso. Lots of food for a good price. Great service too. I'll be back again, no doubt! read more

I have been a frequent customer here for a while now and I am writing this review because of the wonderful service I received today. Our waitress was very kind and extremely helpful when I had questions about some of the food I had never tried before. I came for lunch with my partner and decided I would order for the both of us. While I was waiting for him to join me she timed the food perfectly to come out when we were both at the table. She also offered more kimchi once I finished mine (which has never happened before). 10/10 food and 10/10 service, my partner and I both left today very happy. read more

Wow Han Woo Ri has really stepped up its games over the years! I remember coming here a few years ago and not being impressed with the food. I revisited recently on a weekday with some friends and had a pleasant experience. In the past I had to go to the front to place my order, like a fast-food joint. This time upon entrance, my friends and I were seated by a waiter and ordered our food comfortably at our table. My Bulgolgi came with miso soup and rice. The ONLY banchan was kimchi and that was subpar. The Bulgolgi, though, really hit the spot! The beef was marinated with the perfect balance of sweet and savoriness. It was tender, flavorful, and not too greasy. I've never had potatoes with Bulgolgi before - I didn't care too much for them but they made an interesting combination. One of my friends had the Dol Sot Bibimbap and thoroughly enjoyed it as well. The stone pots and plates kept the dishes warm. The portion size was just right. Service was a bit slow but understandable - the place was packed at prime lunch time while there were only one or two waiters going around. Knowing myself, I'll probably revisit soon in to get my Korean fix. I have my eyes set on those Mochi ice cream - they would make the perfect ending to a satisfying meal. read more

After a long hike at red river gorge, we were more than ready for a delicious meal. Good thing we picked Han Woo Ri, because that's exactly what we got. We started out with the steamed dumplings which were very good. Eight large dumplings served just right, not overly chewy and very flavorful. Then we got the Dol Sot Bi Bim Bap as well as the spicy pork, both excellent. The pork and onions were a bit greasy which was probably the only set back, but overall perfectly seasoned. We finished off with a tasty desert, the green tea tempura ice cream. Overall the food was quite tasty, extremely affordable and the service was fantastic. read more

Update- this has become my absolute favorite restaurant in Lexington. My favorites are the Soon Du Bu and the fantastic roll. The mochi on the dessert menu is also fantastic. Every visit has been spectacular! This restaurant was excellent! I loved the atmosphere (kind of Indie-Chic).. The server was nice, and we didn't wait very long for our food. Everyone in my group was happy with their food (I can't remember the names of everything- one seafood soup, one beef and potatoes dish, one seafood and tofu sauce that you pour over rice, and one roll of sushi). The cinnamon tea was a little too sweet for my taste but my boyfriend liked it. I was very happy with this place and definitely plan on returning! read more

He gave us an extra 10-12 minutes to enjoy the food and just overall being there. Go eat here, this is a dedicated man that cares about his restaurant service, quality, and craft. The food was AMAZING by the way.
