I haven't been to Korea House in probably over 10 years. Mainly because I don't live in that part…read moreof town anymore (since 2012) but I found myself that way with my kids. They wanted Korean food and that was the only one nearby. It's exactly how I remember it.... The same hole-in-the-wall, small restaurant but very packed with tons of customers. My kids shared the kalbi and I ordered the sweet and sour pork. I mean this in a good way, but Korean food (no matter the restaurant) always tastes the same. The only time you know when you have problem is when it tastes drastically different than what you're used to. I've had very few bad experiences with any Korean restaurant. What I personally look for is consistency in flavor and Korea House let that expectation. And because of that, it's as good as I remember and as delicious as I remember. Highly recommended.

I am so glad I made it to Galbiya for some authentic Korean food! We called in an order right…read morebefore they closed, so I was thrilled to get to talk to the very nice owner who told us it wasn't too late to get takeout. Sadly I rarely take photos of takeout food (I need to do better about this!) We got dumplings, ramen, and pork Bibimbap. The owner was so friendly and shared they make homemade kimchi which was fabulous and may have been my favorite thing. The bibimbap was a close second though, it was so flavorful and delicious. I couldn't stop eating it! The dumplings were also fantastic. The only thing I wouldn't order again is the ramen, but I think it's just because they do so many other things better. The restaurant is continent and in a strip mall, with a good amount of tables. I'd really like to dine in next time so I can get the true, full experience. I can't wait to come back!

The restaurant is in a strip mall, with ample parking. The place is sparkling clean, and our server/ chef couldn't have been nicer!!! She proclaimed" we ordered a lot of food".. lol, but we like to try as much as we can!! Seafood pancake, dumplings, spicy pork and japchae were all excellent!!! This sweet lady will make sure you have everything you need!!! If you are new to Korean cuisine, this would be a great place to dine, very helpful!!!

Everything was amazing, as always! After the meal we tried to decide which item we liked the best but couldn't, it was all so good. I must say that on previous trips I never made it down to the far right hand side of the menu, seafood, and sad to say we have missed the scallops, what a shame. They were cooked perfectly and the miso beurre blanc, divine (sorry, couldn't think of a better word). Will be added to the top of our list of favorites here. The service as always was perfect from the time we walked in the door, such a pleasant experience overall. Can't recommend this spot enough, love it, we will be back soon!!!

But highly specialized foreign cuisine like Indian, Vietnamese, or in this case Korean, is typically found in the big city. It doesn't just happen in random places. One would think those can't exist beyond the suburban reaches of a heavily populated area. And they preferably occur in a neighborhood with a significant ethnic population that guarantees the demand for authenticity. When I saw the phenomenal online ratings for Fat Tiger, a greatly heralded Korean joint on the periphery of the Nashville metropolitan area, way out in the countryside by city slickers' standards, I wondered if it was too good to be true. Were these ratings inflated, or was this a hidden gem people need to know about? The only way to discover the truth was to drive myself out there. Boy was that drive worth it! Fat Tiger is legit! While my standards are unreasonably lofty after eating copious dishes in South Korea on several occasions, the recipes made at Fat Tiger passed down from a Korean grandmother are spot on! Yes, it's true, some of the best Korean food in Middle Tennessee is all the way out in Dickson County!! Thank heavens for crowd-sourced review sites finding spots like this! On their recommendation, I went with the jaeyook bokkeum that I'd fallen in love with on an outing in Seoul. It's thinly shaved spicy pork marinated in a gochujang rub, pleasantly spicy but not so hot that you couldn't enjoy it. That was absolute perfection! The meat was so tender, the flavors so rich and complex without overpowering, the sauce in just the right portions. And you get so much food for the price! Now I just need to return to sample the rest of the menu! I see you, Bulgogi Loaded Fries!

From the moment my husband and I stepped up to the elaborately funky barn entrance to explore the charming sights/vibes/smells inside, we were both immediately hungry for all the fatty good fun promised within that fabulous menu. The sweet staff were all such a pleasure as well, especially the kind young lady who offered me a sample of the exquisite turnip green soup because I mentioned it looked good...and it was! We ended up sharing the FANTASTIC shrimp burger with fries and the equally delightful seafood pancake, which was one of the best I've yet to try. And how about those awesome dipping sauces that same sweet staff brought us for our first tastes? It only enhanced the excellent flavors and textures of our dishes! Soooo glad we happened to stop by on our way out of town and soooo willing to make the trek back if we're close by there again--what an awesome eatery and a pleasant surprise! Also, if Guy Fierri hasn't made his way here yet he NEEDS to like yesterday, because it's just the type of perfectly unique stop you'd see on his Flavortown adventures: HINT-HINT!!
