It was a pretty good Korean restaurant! The Yangneyom chicken was really good not too spicy. The servers were really nice and helpful. Let's just say it HITS!!! read more

It's a small restaurant in a strip mall in a shady part of town. Don't let that deter you. The best Korean restaurants in town. We had the pork belly, the galbi, and the kimchi Jigai. All were delicious. The service is fantastic. You can grill your meats table side, if you order at least 2. But the wait staff will grill it for you. And honestly they're gonna do a better job than you. The grilled meats are delicious. The pork belly is thick, unmarinated. The galbi is slightly marinated but not too sweet. The side dishes are awesome. We had the papaya kimchi. The owner/chef makes it herself special. It's very spicy. Never had papaya kimchi before. We loved it so much and mentioned it. And asked if there was somewhere to buy it in town. The waiter came over and gave us a to go container of the papaya kimchi. The owner stopped by and said if you call ahead and say you want the papaya kimchi she will make it special for you. Because she doesn't make it all the time. Such a sweet woman, could tell she just loves her craft. Try this restaurant, you will not regret it. read more

I'm a sucker for Korean food - perhaps because I don't get nearly enough of it - so I went to check out Together Restaurant at lunch time recently. Perhaps I chose the right thing (the spicy pork stir fry), but I really liked it - a simple, fresh, Korean dish that very much tasted like it was cooked at home. And the panoply of sides that came with it (the usual suspects in Korean side dishes - kim chee, pickled radishes, cucumber, etc.) was delightful. The decor is decidedly low-key (read: plain and a little cheap). The service was extremely attentive - but then again, my friend and I were the only people in the place, so I would kind of hope it would be. One thing that threw me a little is that you pay at the register. It would have been easy to sit for a long time waiting for the bill to show up if we hadn't clued in quickly that we were supposed to take the initiative ourselves. I feel worried about the longevity of this place, given the fact that it's been in business for almost a year and does not appear to have much business at all. I wish it were closer to my house, as I feel sure I would visit often in search of their spicy pork stir fry - my version of Korean comfort food. read more

Ordered YukGaeJang it was very good. It suppose to be a spicy korean beef soup, but most places do not make this soup spicy enough. This was probably the best YukGaeJang soup I had in a long time and it was perfect amount of spices for my taste! Will definitely be coming here for more, specially on rainy cold days. Yum! read more

4.5 stars!!!!!! After eating at the Vietnamese restaurant next door, I stumbled across a cheap banner that says "Restaurant Together". Then upon further inspection, I noticed lots of "o's" in the Asian characters on the door. I called my Korean, by birth only, husband over to try to decrypt the language. After a few moments....he says..."Korean".....then...."chicken"....then...."Holy S***....Korean fried chicken." We were very excited. My caution to you is that if you are not ready for real ethnic family-style Korean food---stay away. If you do, this place is absolutely great. Typical, low-key and very Korean and the patrons----all speaking Korean. Service was not the best, but we noticed that the service improved greatly when my husband started to speak in Korean. We ordered the dumpling soup with duk ??(the white doughy discs) ---the best in Austin. and the fried chicken. If you are afraid of bones.....do not eat. If you are a breast man (chicken breasts, of course).....do not eat. If you think a ketchup and chili sauce mixture is weird.....you may want to reconsider. If you are good with the above, the fried chicken is superb! The chicken is cut in small pieces and you need to pick through the bones. The batter was crispy ---a little like tempura, but not so light. The fried chicken was serve with a ketchup and chili sauce mixture and salt and pepper---yummy! Their side dishes were not fancy, but very well prepared. read more

Its 4 AM and I'm up studying. I just remembered going to this place with some friends, and I HAD to write a review. My Korean friend suggested we go to this place. As a lover of food, I got excited and immediately agreed. He called and asked them (in Korean) if they were open, and they said yes, for another hour. We get there, I walk in, and the lady inside gives me this grim look and hastily says: we're closed, we're closed, no more. Being naive and expecting kindness of most people, I just assumed things got mixed up. However, my Korean friend goes in, she greats him, and offers him a table. There are only very few people I hate more than racists. I would never go to this place no matter how good the food is. I've never felt so disrespected for acting completely normal. NEGATIVE 5 stars read more

I love the KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) from here. You can get plain or spicy. I love the spicy! The banchan is also very tasty and plentiful! I would also recommend the Sam Gyup Sal if you like pork belly. The interior is not fancy at all. In fact, it's a little hole in the wall located in the ghetto. The woman (i believe she is the owner and works here by herself) is very sweet, but I don't know how good her english is... I have only come here with Koreans, so I have never had to order myself. As far as service goes, it is a little slow, but there is one waitress! Give her a break, okay? read more

i've been coming to this place for quite some time now and not once has it ever disappointed me!! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! A local spot for sure :D kimchi fried rice is 5/5. read more

Me encanta este lugar para disfrutar de comida coreana caliente e incluso bebidas coreanas más calientes. El queso bulDak es realmente increíble y debes probarlo si te sientes aventurero. read more

Long time Austin's go to late night spot for some old Korean food. They specialize in pub food, so all those from k dramas are all on the menu yummmm. Korean army stew with solutions is to die for, if you know what I mean. read more

The Good: :: the name of the restaurant. i love it that it is called "Together Restaurant". makes no sense at all and doesn't indicate what kind of food they serve. it's like mystery meat in elementary school! :: the sides. they are very good and fresh. their cucumber, kim chee, bean sprouts, and pickled radish were really tasty and fresh, not to mention spicy :: the menu. it had interesting items listed as offerings like spiced snail that we didn't get around to trying. however the best part about the menu was the TOTALLY OFF ENGLISH. "mushel" = mussels. "paper stake" = pepper steak. "pettitoes" = potatoes. gold!!!! :: the batter used to cook the fried chicken with spicy sauce. it was good and crunchy. :: the soup the ramen came in. very very spicy, tasty, and flavorful. i can see myself craving this on cold winter months. :: the waitress was responsive and catered to our needs The Bad: :: music. they played popular music from a radio station, so we heard r&b and bad pop over bites of pickled radish. interesting. definitely doesn't add to the ambiance. :: interior. there are open tables in the restaurant, along with kind of cordoned off tables with partitions that resemble cubicle walls (but made of wood). not a place to go if you are looking for a nice outing for lunch. :: it smelled very asian in there. this means asian food and mothballs. :: the pot of tea. they used a single bag for the whole pot and this was a per-cup sized bag, not for an entire pot, so the green tea was extremely thin and flavorless. we asked them for another bag to steep with, and then the green tea tasted fine. :: the sashimi. we had their red snapper and tuna. they both were not very good. it didn't taste fresh, the texture wasn't right, and it wasn't even properly nor completely thawed. yuck. no matter how much soy sauce i dipped it in, it did not taste good. big plate wasted of each fish, $10 a plate. oh well, you live and learn! :: the fried chicken with spicy sauce was good but it was a bit difficult to eat b/c of the bones :: the ramen wasn't particularly exciting. a little bit overcooked. The Ugly: :: is a dipping sauce of ketchup and mayonnaise korean???? they gave us this with celery and carrot sticks. i don't think it's very korean. maybe i'm wrong here??? Would I go back? Probably, just to try something else before I completely dismiss it. I'd like to be fair since this place has only been in business a month, and I'm sure they have dishes they do well that I just didn't get to. This place is IN...BUT BARELY. read more

The food was fabulous. Tucked away in between an equally excellent Mexican seafood restaurant and a Vietnamese cafe, Together Restaurant is a cozy space where you can enjoy a quiet and delicious meal. We had the beef bulgogi and the spicy crispy fried sweet and sour pork, and an onion pancake. The pickles were crisp and flavorful. The kimchi was divine. It was all the best of its kind that we've experienced thus far. If you're looking for a fancy environment, it's not the place for you. If you want delicious, authentic Korean food...I highly recommend Together Restaurant. read more

So, I decided to give this place another try. We invited a friend and we all headed out for dinner. This time I ordered my favorite dish of Gal bi. I was not impressed. The food was ok, but that's about it. Again, the service was a joke. My friend ordered her glass of water and dinner at the same time. She was through eating before she got her water. And the bad part is that the lady gets irritated when you have the audacity to point out that you need napkins or something to drink. Put a fork in me, I'm done. I won't go back again. I can pay less money for better food and better service elsewhere. read more

Had high hopes for the restaurant but all the entrees cost $7-8 more in the restaurant than the listed prices on their website. Seafood pancake and dumplings were each $3 more. A bottle of Miller lite was $6. Fried chicken was $24. The food was only 'okay'. There are several good Korean places nearby on Lamar that are much better: Korean Grill or Seoulju... read more

Since my last review I tried a few other items on the menu. Yes, the fried chicken here is good. It isn't "bonchon" style, where the batter is really light, but rather fried like pork spare ribs from a chinese restaurant. It may seem expensive on the menu(11 bucks), but you really get a lot of chicken. Way more than any stingy food trailer would give you. The seafood hotpot is a good choice if you're with one of those... psuedo vegetarians that can eat seafood... I find it kind of bland though. I'd probably opt for the pork based hotpots. The grilled mackerel with soup is quite amazing... so good that I went to get it 2 days in a row. You basically get half of a fish, grilled hamachi style which makes the skin really crispy, and keeps the inside super moist. For me this is an amazing deal, beats the pants off any "all american" seafood joints. 9 dollars if you get the lunch special, 10.50 if you go for dinner. I really love the side dishes at this place, did I mention free refills? I've discovered that you get better ones(small kimchi pancakes/fish cakes) if you go for dinner, and I think that justifies the 1.50~ increase in price. (You probably noticed that the prices here seem... quite cheap for what you're getting. Yeah I think so too.) read more

Delicious Korean food! They make all their own banchan to start and all of it is great. The galbi, bibimbop, jeeun, ... you can't go wrong! Plus, their special combo menu is an unbelievable amount of food plus beer. Bring your friends. read more

First of all, interior here isn't that pleasant. If I was working there I would strongly recommend some paint job or something at least. Anyways, interior don't actually matter if foods are good. Yes- This place have good Sachun Tangsuyuk which is spicy fried pork with sweet & sour sauce. It is so tasty there! I love how they serve a bottle of water, too! Side dishes looks not so special compared to josun galbi or something but those side dishes are very delicious too. Way better than josun galbi. I hope the owner makes a lot of money and do some interior job. read more

Who hasn't had a late night hankering for some KFC? Not the kind served by a southern Colonel. I'm talking that Korean Fried Chicken. Together is about the only place that stays open fairly late and serves KFC alongside other typical Korean food. The service is as expected for a spot with two workers or so working into the wee hours of the morning, slightly slow. So order a bottle or two of some Soju and wait patiently. The chicken comes with a lot of the fixings so get ready to eat a lot. It's hot and crunchy. If you order the flavored stuff it's not bad but I prefer the dry stuff. It's not as messy to eat. Definitely one of my top late night spots when I am awake into the wee hours. Anyways, did he ever serve in the armed forces? read more

This place is overpriced, understaffed and food is subpar. Service wasn't good at all. Also, they did not have rice for our meat. 100% will not be back read more

The best Korean snack and food place in austin. Specially their korean grills(pork belly) and entree menues. read more

This place a gold mine. I really enjoyed the place. It is small and the food is great. It only has about 8 - 10 tables and the waitstaff is very attentive. My water glass was never empty. The food was delicious and we were full when we left. We had a chicken bulgogi, is was just spicy enough but not too hot that we burned our mouths. We had a fried fish that went well with the tofu soup. We also had an egg dish that look like an omelette and I think that was the best. This place was hard to find and parking was even harder to find. This is a place I would come back and bring more friends. read more

I came here due to all the positive reviews, and the prospect of interesting dishes like silkworm soup. I left having had probably the worst Korean food of my life (and I've eaten a lot of it). Banchan started off with raw sticks of carrots and celery with Kewpie mayo. Seriously? Thankfully they brought out the traditional sides - about a half dozen of them. None of them were very exciting; all tasted very bland with watered down flavor. A dish of japche noodles tasted more like American-Chinese takeout. My soondooboo (soft tofu soup) tasted basically like burnt water, with hardly any flavor from the fermented soybean and chili pastes. An overcooked egg was already inside it, instead of being offered on the side. The fried yellow croaker was the only thing salvageable. We skipped on ordering the silkworm. read more

Sent my husband to get me some some pork bulgogi and they over charged him by $3, which isn't a crap load but still, don't bullshit people like that wtf. They threw in an extra side of crap in a container, I'm guessing to make it look like we got a lot, which we didn't, and the side was gross and cold and we didn't even order it. It was a macaroni salad of some sort and some equally craptacular kimchi crap. The bulgogi was OK I guess, though not enough meat and way too greasy and not nearly enough rice. For almost $20 I'm pissed.Going to keep looking for a better and not douche bag shaddy Korean restaurant. read more

The food here is GREAT! I like that they have a variety of food to choose. Friendly staffs!

This is a place to go for soju nights (they have great lunch specials too). It's one of those small hole in the wall places with good food. They always have wide variety of banchan. Just keep in mind this place is mostly for bar food. It's like going to Plucker's to drink beer and eat wings. The main lady there is so sweet and takes such good care of us. Stuff I can't get enough of here are spicy chicken stir fry and kimchi jigae. Their kal gook su (knife-cut noodle soup) is pretty good too. If you are drinking soju, try gopchang jungol (spicy beef intestine soup) or budae jjigae (American influenced jigae with presence of hotdog and spam) read more

ALLERGY ALERT: they use peanut butter in the sauce for the fried chicken!!!! It doesn't say this on the menu unfortunately. The staff was very kind and accommodating. The place is small but nice. The prices are high though and only some dishes are large enough to share. read more

It's best to go here with a large group of people to get a good variety of food. With a group of 8 other people, we split 2 kimchi pancakes, 3 orders of pork belly, 1 vegetable bibimbap, 1 large mussel soup, and 1 order of steak with plenty of rice. The vegetarian options weren't anything out of the ordinary and the dishes were also similar to other Korean restaurants. To drink we had beer mixed with wine, which I would recommend as a casual drink to go with the food. Overall, great people running the restaurant and the food was good, especially when you're craving Korean late at night. read more

best authentic korean food in town was amazing. the perfect late night spot. the service was so good as well. a MUST TRY

The place is small and feel like home . The food is ok but it kinda expensive for a small place like this . Our squid ordered is way too spicy . But we might come back and give them a second try since the waiter is very nice read more

I'm sorry but the worst bibimbap I've ever eaten. Rice was drenched in sauce and barely any toppings. I don't even know if you can call that a bibimbap. By the way I did Uber eats and with the delivery fee included I paied $20 for that. So disappointed. read more

Extremely overpriced food which wasn't all that tasteful. We ordered the regular and yangyeom chicken wings. The regular chicken wings tasted very similar to Popeye's chicken, but at 5x the price. The yangyeom was not sweet at all. Neither flavor could hold a candle to Jang's Chimac, which unfortunately is closed temporarily as of the time of this review. Definitely not worth eating here unless you grow money on trees. read more

Awesome side dishes, one of the few places I've found with tangsooyuk in austin, and it was really good! We also had spicy Tofu Jiggae and beef bulgolgi. The pork was extremely flavorful, and the sauce tasted home-made. The beef was very tender and flavorful. The Ajima seemed to be the only person there, but service was fast and she was very nice. She brought extra side dishes on request. The potatoes, (pickles/cucumbers?), bean sprouts, zucchini, and some non-korean side dish (pasta, fruit, and were all amazing. (some of the freshest I've tasted) The kimchi left something to be desired, but everything else made up for it. Great selection of food, although some of the best things are only written in korean. (go with a korean friend the first time if you can) MUCH better than Korea Garden (just up the street in chinatown center). Overall, very fresh, authentic taste, reasonably priced (just under $10 for a plate that can be shared by two - unless each person extremely hungry) Definitely the place to go if you're craving tangsuyuk!! (korean sweet and sour pork) read more

Went here for the first time Saturday night. Though the decor and music was a tad bit tacky but it's expected from a Korean BAR FOOD restaurant that is open late until 2am or so with a game room next door. You cannot expect to walk into a nice, cozy bistro with good music to your ears and fancy decor. 4 Stars: THE FOOD was pretty damn awesome! My friend and I had the soft tofu spicy soup, the grilled mackerel and the onion cake (which was my favorite). Everything was SO tasty and hit the spot at 11pm. Also, I tried solju with yogurt. YUM!! THE SERVICE was great and very friendly -1 Star: Someone was smoking inside right before we came in. Not something you want to compliment your food with. read more

Authentic and good aren't necessarily synonymous. This place definitely had some authentic options. But it was all pretty much not so good and overpriced. Music was initially blaring but they turned it down after we asked thankfully. They really burnt our seafood pancake as well as the squid in the bibimbop. The banchan/ side dishes were mostly bad (there was one good one!). I'd highly recommend Arirang instead but they are closed so I have no where to point you to instead, sorry. But at this price to quality ratio, I'm assuming most places would be better. read more

first time coming here with my friends and the service was great. the food was really yummy and i'm definitely coming back again!!

One star for opening late, another star for offering combo dishes, another star for staff service. They have interesting banchan as well as the usual. From kimchi to sliced mushrooms. Was excited about the soondubu and grilled yellow fish combo, the fish was nice, crispy outside, fluffy study inside, but on the other hand soondubu lacked major flavor, just a whole bunch of dubu pieces floating in lack luster kimchi broth...and an egg...?....anyways....moving on...the tangsuyuk was drenched in sweet and sour sauce, the veggies were closed to raw, the pork was heavily coated in batter.... On the fence in this first visit....shall try again...for other items on the menu... read more

Came here on a Sunday with some friends. One of my friends is Korean and I am a self-proclaimed Korea-addict. I really loved this place. My fiancee and I ordered Samgyupsal, pork belly, that we were able to grill up right on the table. My complaints about their Samgyupsal is that I'm accustomed to the pork belly being cut prior to cooking and I'm pretty sure I didn't need the waitress to manage my grill for me. It felt a little intrusive on us and I felt bad that she had to stand at our table until all our pork belly was done cooking. We also ordered one bottle of Soju, which was enough for all of us to have two shots worth. I also ordered Jjin Mandu, steamed dumplings, which I feel I can't really review because I have a terrible weak spot for dumplings... period. A couple of my friends ordered Kimchi Jigae and Bulgogi, both of which were good. Another of my friends TRIED to order Pa Duk (she had brought her bairn and was trying to get something easy to eat between them), a boneless chicken and green onion dish, but the waitress wouldn't let her. I don't know why and I think it was just a communication barrier but... still! She ended up ordering fried chicken... which was still good with the exception of the added child watch involved. All of the banchan was good and we all really enjoyed it. So aside from the one hiccup with the Pa Duk (and the shock of the bill, haha), we all really liked it and agreed we should come back. I'm really looking forward to it. read more

i never write reviews but this place is a must!! the customer service is always fantastic and the food is absolutely amazing (especially the galbi). definitely the best korean spot ive been to so far! read more

Together Restaurant is one of my favorite Korean restaurants in Austin! My best friend and I love going here for the Chicken! She has actually lived in Korea for a little bit and has said that the food taste as if she was back in Korea! We have yet to try a large variety of the foods on the menu, but here is what I have tried and what I think of it: - Yangnyeom Chicken: Obviously my favorite! - Beef Bulgogi: Really good, some places makes it super salty, but the one I tried at Together was not super salty at all! You can actually taste the quality of the meat. - Military Soup: Delicious, but huge! This is best for a big group of friends coming together for some good food and Soju! - Topokki: was okay, I've had better, but it was good and spicy and compliments the Bulgogi when you order them together. - Samgyupsal: Let me just say, they don't skimp on the amount of meat they give you! Now this you do have to order 2 servings of the meat, but its very much worth it! I really enjoy going here rather its a little dinner date with my best friend or family, or with a big group of friends after a fun night of hanging out! The people are nice, the food is good, and its the perfect place to have a nice calm dinner! read more

The food was okay and very overpriced. My rating is low due to the service. We had to keep flagging down the waitress to refill our sides or get us water even though there was no one else in the restaurant. We left a small tip reflecting the quality of service we received. As we were walking away from the restaurant the waitress was walking and yelling after us to come back. When we went back, she had written in a higher amount for the tip and demanded that we change the total on the receipt. She literally stood there with us and forced us to tip her more!! Never coming back here ever again. read more
