Very welcoming and inviting. I called for lunch and they were closing soon. They definitely made a point to invite us for dinner in a manner which we couldn't turn down. Food was delicious. Service was great. Great hospitality & decent ambiance. They had lot of suppliers scattered next to our table. Would've been better not to have that. I would go back again & again for the food & hospitality. read more

My friend and I came here for lunch and were so impressed by both the food and the service. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming from the moment we walked in. There was an irate customer during our visit who began BERATING the server, but she handled the situation with professionalism and grace. The customer had already eaten a good portion of their meal before complaining about the price, portion size, and fish quality, but our experience was completely the opposite. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The portions were generous and absolutely worth the price. The customer also claimed that the server disappeared into the back, which wasn't true at all. She was actually very attentive and constantly moving around to help everyone. She was the only server working at the time, and I think she did an amazing job taking care of the entire restaurant. The server even took the time to apologize to the whole restaurant afterward for the disturbance, which showed how much she cared about everyone's dining experience. Overall, the food was absolutely delicious. Rich, authentic, and such a perfect representation of Korean cuisine. You can really taste the care and tradition in every bite. We'll definitely be coming back again and again. Thank you for such a wonderful meal and warm hospitality! read more

Some of the best food I've ever had, got the pork and squid over rice. Will remember the rest of my life

This is one of my favorite restaurants, and I'm surprised that I haven't reviewed it yet. I always get the bibimbap with the meat and the fried egg, and it's always perfect. We're almost always served by the same people, and we know each other now, even though we comply come once or twice a year. It's always nice and cozy, and very rarely busy when I've been there. read more

Food was so good - first we had some potstickers (Mandu) probably the best ones I've had - I could have eaten a dozen. We both had the beef (#2) which was excellent and loved trying all the sides, especially the spicy ones. Place is small but cozy. Service was very friendly and Mom is a heck of a cook. Will definitely be back to try something else. read more

Authentic Korean food. Hard to find truly authentic. This is it!!! Not fusion. Wonderful, fresh, flavorful family restaurant. This is run by 2 ladies. Our sever was the daughter of one of the ladies. Located in a strip mall, don't let it fool you. It's really good!!!! I had the tofu bibimbap. My husband had the kimchi and pork soup. Both were terrific. Worth the drive from wherever you are in Cincinnati. We will be back. read more

Kim's Korean - Side dishes. These can change with the season. Delicious!! - Korean Near Me - Harrison, Ohio

This was my second time here and it was a great experience. The waitress whom I believe is the wife gave me recommendations on my meal. I started with the Mandoo which was a Korean dumpling which was very good. Then for my main course I ordered the Bulgogi Chungsik which was a beef dish that had a very good flavor and I would get it again but I would try something else on the menu. It was a small restaurant in a strip mall but I did notice they had regulars that came in and the waitress did have a conversation with them which told me their food was good. The meal did fill me up and was worth the money for a mom and pop restaurant. read more

I'm so glad Kim's was recommended to me! We have been often and loved it every time. Customer service is top notch and everything we've had is delicious. You will be happy you gave them a try!! read more

Ive lived in korea. This food is authentic and great tasting. Try the Kimshi chigae in the hot stone bowl. Or try the delicious Bulgogi and rice. The service is attentive and friendly. Stop in for food love! read more

Small portions the fish was old as dirt overpriced when we asked for the fish to be took off the bill she said she can't because I'm the first person to say it and that she would have if I let her know sooner but she brought the food and disappeared in the back so I could not let her know any sooner very rude people and bad management read more

We love Korean food, particularly a fired up stone bowl of dolsot bibimbap. How is it that I live 15 minutes from this place that has been open 17 years and did not know it even existed? Well, that is no longer the case. Thank Goodness! First. Yum. Yum. Yum. The good is reasonably priced, fresh, and tastes homemade. Two sisters cook it all! We started with mandu dumplings (thin slender Korean deep fried dumplings - vegetarian - 6 in an order). Then we all ordered beef bibimbap. The lunch portion was perfect. One of the owners chatted with us for a bit and she was kind and delightful. I can't wait to go back with friends! read more

It's a if we all have a Korean Grandma and she's going to ensure we are well fed. Everything is prepared there except a few of the pickled sides. It's a delicious taste of Korea's finest. I really enjoy the spicy squid. read more

The food is authentic and amazing. The service is super friendly. Always a great experience. Love this place!

Bulgogi was amazing as were the gyoza. I thought they would be questionable because they had tofu I believe and not meat. The waitress (daughter in law) said they taste me amazing and you couldn't tell. She was right! Order them. The service she provided as our waitress was great and she was very polite and friendly. Service was a little slow but the food and the value and hospitality was worth the wait. The mother/chef came out and gave our boys a cookies as a treat. We were in town for a Spartan race. I would highly recommend. It takes a bit to get your food but I understand it's a small mom and pop shop restaurant and the meals are made to order. It doesn't feel or taste cheap. It tastes like an amazing home cooked and authentic Korean meal. It is worth the wait. Stop in and give it a try. I Wish I lived closer than 5 1/2 hours away! read more

Place is wonderful. Authentic. Delicious and great friendly staff. Best Korean food I've had since Korea.

We are in town for a wrestling tournament and found this great place through yelp! We live on the other side of Ohio and don't have any Korean or asian restaurants near us and being that we are originally from Hawaii we looooove any form of asian food. This place was great! The food was so delicious. We got the Kalbi, spicy pork and bulgogi and an order of mandu. So so good! The family that owns it is so nice. Our waitress was the daughter in law of the owner and she was so great. Amazing customer service. The owner came out multiple times to check on us as well. You don't find these kind of gems very often. My only complaint is that they aren't closer to us. We would be here all the time if it was! read more

My colleague and I had a late meeting in Harrison, OH, and decided for dinner afterwards. Given the area, we anticipated hanging out at Bdubbs or Five Guys for dinner. We were pleasantly surprised to find a hodgepodge of available cuisines, and even more surprised to find Korean food! Kim's is located in an unassuming strip mall behind a plethora of fast food restaurants. There's not much to the interior - but honestly, that's how you know the food is about to be GOOD. We started with the spicy chicken wings, which were sticky and delicious! They were fried with rice flour, giving the wings a light yet crunchy texture. I was absolutely THRILLED to see they had jajangmyeon. It's my favorite Korean dish and it's hard to find in Cincinnati. My friend ordered the beef Bulgogi. Both items were absolutely delicious, and there was A LOT of food. I ordered an extra side of rice to take home because of how much sauce I had; jajangmyeon sauce is also excellent over rice! The one thing I will point out - and it's not a complaint, simply a note - is that it took quite awhile for our food to come out. We were there nearly an hour before receiving our entrees, and we were one of only two tables dining in (it was a Tuesday night). It's rare I'm in a rush to be somewhere else when I'm this far out of the city, but be aware if you're on a time crunch. Overall, it was such a nice little find to come across in Harrison! There are a few restaurants that look really interesting that I want to try in the area. Kim's Korean is the beginning of my culinary adventure in Harrison; no Bdubbs or Five Guys for me! read more

Food is great. Authentic Korean cuisine. I recommend pot stickers and cucumber kimchi

This is authentic Korean. The lunch special comes with several side items and good portion sizes. I typically prefer cabbage kimchi to cucumber but the kimchi here is really good. The spicy pork was tasty and the service was friendly. Plenty of space inside for dine-in. read more

Intimate, low-keyed family atmosphere, and clean decor that you can take in just standing in the doorway -- a few tables, then a few Korean tables -- low tables with cushions, then the back-of-the-house take-out window. But it's the food that absolutely blew me away. It was fresh, it was authentic, and it had that special quality that told you that they took time and care with each home-made dish. I have the Doegi Bulgogi Bapbap (spicy pork and rice). The pork was perfectly marinated, tasty, and the right level of chewiness. I also had the pollock fish soup -- dongae chigae, that almost was too spicy for me. But was amazed at huge medallions of carrots and the seafood in there. The shrimp in particular was fresh and plump. And then there was the banchon. I'll admit, I never get that excited about banchon in particular. These 5 dishes are meant to be garnishes and are usually some type of pickled vegetable (yes, always kimchee, which I do love). But this banchon was plentiful, and each dish was tasty and exciting. Overall, the food had that elusive quality I'm always looking for in a restaurant -- food that's homemade, made with integrity, and well, just real. read more

My first time there. So I didn't recognize anything on the menu and wasn't sure what to expect. Well I ordered #2 So Bulgogi Dupbap. Beef. It had outstanding flavor. Rice was very good. You get all theses little side dishes. Best was this cucumber kimchi. Then some kind of mushroom dish also very good. A few others all good. Not like a traditional Chinese food. It was really good and filling with great flavor. Good friendly service. The beef was really good quality like cut up steak. read more

Service and the food are always exceptional. Try it you will not be disappointed. It is a hidden gem. read more

My son loves this restaurant. Me, I am neutral on it. The food is different from what I am used to but tasted ok. They have some traditional Korean seating at floor level which my son insisted eating at. I should have insisted on NOT sitting there.0h my aching back. read more

First time here with my husband and son! Super friendly and quick service accompanied by DELICIOUS FOOD We ordered the Kalbi (short-rib) , Dolsot bibimbap Beef (mixed rice with beef and veggies hot sauce in the side), and Jajjangmeon (black bean noodles) Good portions for sure 10/10 recommend. (: wish I had pictures but was so hungry we ate it right away read more

The food is authentic and outstanding. Meals may not be cheap but the portions are large, high quality, and come with multiple courses. The ladies who run it are friendly and really know their craft. Restaurant is exceptionally clean as well. Very good. read more

The space is neat and the staff is really nice. It's this great hole in the wall so even when you know it's there it kind of feels like finding a magic portal. The prices are reasonable and the portions are good and most importantly the food is excellent. I trusted the other reviews on here and they were right. Definitely check this out. read more

Kim's Korean - #4 And spicy rice cakes - Korean Near Me - Harrison, Ohio

I was recommended this place a few years ago but I'm never in Harrison. Today I found myself at big lots and remembered the recommendation and decided to yelp it. This had to be one of the highest ranked restaurants and I reviewed what people had to say and got excited. Now sometimes this is a setup for failure. You walk in expecting everything to be perfect and a few little flaws lead to disappointment. Not here. The good was spectacular and the service was phenomenal. I'm going to have to come back and try out the rest of the menu. I can't wait. read more

My Dad and I tried this place a few months back and he really likes what he got but I didn't like my meal, I think I'm just not the biggest fan of Korean food. It came out sizzling hot and appeared fresh & Kim was very nice. read more

I was craving for Korean food and thank goodness there was one in Harrison. It's so hard to find Asian food around the tri-state area close to where my husband is from. The owner took our orders and served us. He was very nice. The owner is a veteran and my husband was able to small talk with him about his time in the military. His wife cooks the food. I ordered the tofu soup and it was delicious! The side dishes were awesome. I liked that there were more than 4 side dishes offered. My husband enjoyed the food as well. The rice was fresh and steaming hot. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area again. read more

We LOVE Kim's! This place is so much better than Riverside! We've probably eaten half of the items on the menu and have loved everything. We always get fast and friendly service and the prices are fair for the amount of food and how fresh it all is. This is a favorite place of ours. ...I've been to Korea and this is the real deal. read more

The food is top notch! (I lived in Korea for over a year. This is as genuine as it gets.) The service is always prompt. Definitely worth a trip if you like Korean food. read more

Excellent food though serving was a little small for the price. Banchan served was very good.

What a delicious experience! First off was ginseng tea and spicy rice cakes. Very well prepared. We ordered the spicy soft tofu soup and the grilled short ribs for entrees. Both were delectable. The soup arrived boiling hot, literally. Kimchi was okay, other little sides were interesting, cucumber salad was delicious. Warm and attentive service. read more

Incredible service and a wonderfully tasty sampling of Kimchi added to the great dinner menu. Would go back again to try other authentic Korean food read more

A lovely little restaurant that reminds me of places in South Korea. We had Yukajang (spicy beef soup) and bulgogi. The soup was tasty but small and not much meat. We love vegetables but a little bit more meat would be better. Bulgogi was yummy and perfectly seasoned. We stared with mandu that were not homemade but still very good. Great selection of banchan. Would definitely come often to support this local business. read more
