Not bad at all! It's a hole-in-the-wall on Parker Road in a dead strip mall. The traditional Korean menu and the sight of an elder coming out of the kitchen gave me a sense of authenticity. The restaurant was quite busy, which is a good sign. The food was tasty, authentic, and reasonably priced. We ordered the mackerel, which was a nice piece of fish with all the ban chans. It was delicious and we had leftovers to take home. read more

My grand niece had her graduation luncheon at this wonderful Korean restaurant!! we had a variety of dishes and everyone gave a thumbs up, Unfortunately for me, I'm on a restricted diet, but enjoyed the pancakes which was my favorite! This was not my first time here and was so difficult to pass up on some of my favorite dishes! The ladies serving were so amazingly attentive! read more

My parents wanted Korean for lunch and specifically fried fish. I looked at the different Korean restaurants in Fairfield and Koreana was one that had fried fish on it. We opted for the pan fried flat fish which we really enjoyed! This is definitely more of a traditional Korean restaurant with staff and the environment. Right outside of Travis Air Force Base. If people we're stationed in Korea, this definitely is a little piece of Korea close to being on base. It was busy for a Sunday, when we got there service was a bit slow but others got their food fast. We got the Galbi hot stone bibimbap and the seafood tofu soup. The meal was large enough for me and my parents and their Banchan was really good too! Parking is super easy and plenty in this small shopping plaza. read more

It was about time I got to try this place after hearing so many great reviews and it did not disappoint! Even though they don't offer all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ, the food is delicious and full of flavor. This spot is definitely a hidden gem right before Travis Air Force Base. The restaurant is small and cozy and the servers were very attentive and welcoming. Every dish we ordered was on point, but the standout for me was the spicy Korean fried chicken ,crispy, flavorful, and with just the right amount of heat. The crab was fresh and savory, and their selection of banchan was generous and tasty.If you're in the area, I highly recommend giving this place a try. It's worth the stop! read more

Hungry, I looked for somewhere around me and Yelp suggested "Koreana Korean BBQ". Being that I was not in the mood to cook my food (Korean BBQ), I was happy to learn they served other things as well. The server was nice and gave me options as I said it was my first time there. After the server took my order, I noticed that she went from me, to the front register and that hinted to me that she could've also been the owner. My order shortly came after I ordered, and then I was reminded about why it was a little on the pricey side, because of the 7 sides that accompanied my meal! My Bi Bim Bap was to my liking, and... as I was eating, I noticed that there were a lot of people ordering to-go, I mean a LOT. read more

Oh my gosh!! Amazing. Such a true experience with great Korean food. The server Mimi was knowledgeable and kind. The place is all clean and just quaint. Gosh again. Just yummy and definitely worth it. Thank you ! read more

Very good Korean tasting food compared to other Korean restaurants in the area. Came here on a Wednesday afternoon. It was quiet with two other parties of two and six. The banchans were good. I had the bi bin bag hot stone, my favorite. My daughter got the kali and seafood tofu soup combo which we shared. There's plenty of good! This place is hidden right outside Travis Air Force Base. read more

Food excellent. Service excellent. Must try if you're looking for Korean food to eat.

존나 개맛있어! If you like Korean food for a reasonable price this is the place to go. I got the galbi dolsot bibimbap (갈비돌솥비빔밥) and was impressed. They give you lots of banchan as well. As someone who has lived in Korea and NYC, Koreana did not disappoint. read more

Finally able to enjoy this cute little homey spot. This is tucked away in the back of a strip mall off of Air base parkway. I would've never known about if my daughter didn't come here often. Food came out quick but of course the banchan was plentiful and delicious. My families favorite was the soy glazed potatoes and their kimchi. We shared a couple of soups, wings and the kimchijeon. The soups were delicious especially on the cold night we went just enough spice with lots of meat and seafood. Our wings and kimchijeon were crispy and delicious. read more

A foodie friend, whose recommendations are always spot-on, suggested I try this place. I came by around 1 pm on a Sunday, and despite hearing that it gets super busy, it was surprisingly empty, so we got seated right away. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming! They checked in frequently to make sure we had everything we needed. As for the food... the rave reviews are spot on! It's truly authentic Korean cuisine. They started us off with banchan (see photo), plus a cup of rice for each person. Here's what we ordered: Seafood pancake with green onion Korean-style deep-fried chicken with gochujang sauce on the side Galbi with tofu soup combo Shrimp fried rice Spicy marinated crab There was so much food that we had leftovers, and it was perfect for dinner later that day. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and will definitely be back! read more

Went to this place a month ago for lunc. Place is always crowded since it is located outside an Air Force base. Food is delicious and servings are generous. The banchans have free refills so that was a pleasant surprise. We had bulgolgi both spicy and not spicy. They were both flavorful and tasty. Staff is great specially the guy that was refilling our banchans. Parking is shared by other businesses but there is plenty of parking. read more

Family dinner out on a Saturday...my brother suggested this little Korean place of the beaten path. Although we sat down to an empty restaurant.....I'm glad we got in before the crowd hit. We had a nice women who served us and brought our food to the table pretty quickly. One section is for cooking up your food bbq style and the other front section is for cooked food served to you. We were hungry.. bypassed the cooking our food idea. The front counter was away from the dinning area, so it doesnt feel like people are staring down your throat as you decide what to order and finally eat. On the table for side condiments and dishes were things like kimchi, bean sprouts, Japchae, cucumbers in chilli sauce slightly pickled, potatoes, broccholi, etc... Combo meals were korean bbq short ribs with white rice and spicy seafod/beef/tofu soup. Another combo was Bul go gi jun over white rice and spicy tofu soup. A side order of fried potstickers and a plate ao chicken fried rice. Everthing was quite good, but it's a bit of " sticker shock" when the bill comes cause it didnt seem like a lot of food for the price. Cio for now..... read more

So for a family of 4 I paid around $120 (tip included). It was worth it! The portions were enough for two people to share on dish honestly. We had so much food left over and it came out quick! They also provide a sampler dish and it was so fun to try new foods and flavors. Definitely would go again. read more

Food was good. But the service sucked. We got our food and everything but they never came back to check in on us. We ran out of water and we tried to call them but they didn't pay attention to us or said "one sec" They always had time for the other parties. read more

Consistently delicious food, reasonably priced. Eat here if you savor genuine Korean food !

My husband and I have been living in Fairfield for the past 6 years and finally gave this place a try. We've been sleeping on it. Everything was so good, we'll be back for sure. We enjoyed everything we ordered and can't wait to go back and try more things on the menu. We ordered the pork belly combo with the tofu soup, short ribs and kimchi pancake. Everything an easy 10/10. We can't wait to be back. read more

Ughhhh, im so sad. I really wanted to like this place and I've heard pretty good reviews from others. However, what really bothered me was the fact that there were so many mosquitos inside this restaurant. I killed three before I even ordered the food and after that I gave up with trying to kill them. I really contemplated on walking out, but I had already ordered the food. I even thought about changing locations but I saw other customers swatting the air so it wasn't the location of my seat. On top of that experience, their service was not the best. I waited more than 15 minutes before they took my order which was a bit frustrating. Its not like the restaurant was busy at the time, but I've been reading that this is a common problem they have. However, majority of the food I ordered was good. I really enjoyed the Marinated Raw Crab. It was my first time trying this and I felt like the marinade was good. I chose Medium Spice but it wasn't spicy, I could've definitely gone higher. The sauce can be overpowering so its best to eat it with rice or something else to balance it out. The Bbq Galbi was good. It was cooked very well. The Spicy Pork Bulgogi was okay. I felt like it was too sweet, and it was missing something. I actually ended up taking the rest home and cooking it with kimchi, thai chilies and a little bit of soy sauce which made it taste so much better. Overall, majority of the food was good, but I don't think that I would be giving this spot another try. I really disliked the number of mosquitos in the restaurant and the fact that mosquitos loveee me is just too problematic for me. read more

5/5. This place is amazing!!! The food is so fresh and delicious. I enjoy it. This is my second time and it keeps getting better and better. It is getting colder lately so it is perfect to enjoy some soup. I got kimchi jjigae!!! My favorite Korean soup. I love making it at home and I wanted to try an authentic Korean Kimchi jjigae. It was authentic in my opinion but with a twist. It is still really good though. My friend got Tofu Dumpling soup and she loves it. She said it is not salty like other Korean spots. The service is amazing. However, at night it is kind of crowded. So be aware of that. But don't fear they will get you seated as soon as possible. The inside is amazing!!! It feels super homey. So this is a must-go stop when you come by. I am coming back here again. read more

Koreana Korean BBQ - Tofu Dumpling Soup - Korean Near Me - Fairfield, California

Tucked in a not so busy area of Fairfield, CA. Right across from Travis AFB. It's in, what looks like, an empty plaza with a Pizza Hut and some other shops. The parking lot is a good size but this restaurant isn't as big you might expect. The waiting area is small so if you find yourself waiting, it might be in your car. My family and I dined in on a Monday night and wow it was busy! 90% of the tables had parties. Our wait for 4 people was between 5-10 mins. So glad our wait was short. We were seated sorta of in the corner on the side and around a huge party. I'm sure our table was easily missed because I noticed a party of 4 that sat closer to the entrance and got their utensils and waters. Eventually, someone noticed us, gave us waters then a few minutes after that, we placed our order. I was nervous that we were going to be told that they ran out of certain things; which they did say they were low on banchan! Sad face. We still got some side dishes but just enough for each one of us to have a little taste. We ordered: - Seafood Pancake: This is a must get if you're a fan of seafood!!! It was cripsy, hearty and the sauce added a sweet yet lightness to the Seafood Pancake. I appreciated how not-so oily it tasted. - Bul Go Gi + Tofu Soup Combo: We opted for the Seafood Tofu Soup (mild) and wow... I could not stop eating the soup! It was so comforting and flavorful. The bulgogi was different, but in a good way. It was smokey and tender. It wasn't as sweet as I expected but I was okay with that. I liked that BBQ-ness to it. - Gal Bi + Tofu Soup Combo: My parents wanted the Seafood Tofu Soup (no spice), if you don't like spice then yea get it but i'm telling you... adding "mild" adds sooo much to this soup. Anyways. The Gal Bi, IMO, was a bit tough. Flavorful but tough. *note: their meat + soup combo is pretty good for 1-2 persons. It also comes with rice. Overall, Koreana Korean BBQ gives me that home cooked meal comfort. I can see this being a comfort meal restaurant for those who grew up in the Korean culture, eating delicious Korean food. I'll be back for more soup and try out more items on the menu! read more

Let's start off with that the Gal Bi is a MUST try. Them short ribs were perfect in EVER-RY-WAY! Flavorful and succulent is what first comes to mind. Definitely the highlight to our meal. We also ordered the fried rice, which is not pictured, however, it looked and tasted like steamed rice. This wasn't an issue since it was prepared well and packed with flavor from the veggies it was steamed with. The other small dishes that came with our meal was filling and enjoyable as well. Lastly, but most importantly, our food came out fast and the prices were very affordable. read more

I actually went to Koreana a long time ago and didn't like it. During Covid, we ordered it on DD and it was so bomb. I just found out it is now under new ownership over the last 5 years. The new owner upped the quality of food and brought delicious recipes. I gotta say this is my favorite Korean place in these parts. Here are some of my faves: Gal Bi: These ribs have lots of meat and packs lots of flavor. I've had to many ribs that looked like the cow was on a diet. These are grilled just right. Ans yes, you gotta use your hands, lol. Bulgogi: Generous portion with lots of sweet and savory goodness here. Yum! Kimchee Fried Rice: I'm not sure what makes this one my fav cause I have had it at other places. Maybe it's the Kimchee, or the SPAM. But this is one always gets ordered. Soy Fried Chicken: Crispy, check! Meaty, checks! Sweet Soy Glaze, check! They actually have a few choices for their fired chicken. Try them all! Seafood and vegetable pancakes: The sauce is what makes this one sing! It reminds me of when I was growing up and my babysitter would serve it to me. If you are fan then this is a must order. Soju: Koreana has lychees soju which is so hard to find. Try it, you may like it. The location is a bit out of the way. Just head toward Travis AFB and make the last left. It will be the 2nd shopping center on the left hand side. The lot is paved now where it used to be gravely. I suspect if they moved to a location nearer the 80 this place would get far more traffic. The interior is pretty basic. It seats maybe 50-60 people. The service is good and food comes out timely. Everything comes out hot and fresh. If you have a hankering for Korean, this is your place! read more

The best korean food in the Vacaville/Fairfield area. Authentic family style dishes, they have the best kimchi in the area imo. The seafood pancake is our go-to dish but, honestly, everything we've tried has been delicious. This is not fast food. Sometimes it takes them a while but the food is worth it. Service is great without being overbearing. Decor is simple and spartan, reminding me of restaurants I've been in in Korea. If you like Blue House or Hot Stone, this is a very different experience and one I think you'll love. read more

This is our first time trying them out and did take out option. Cashier wasn't pleasant and got ordered confused. Also, they are extremely expensive. Ordered the Bibimbap Short rib and Beef, also Fried Chicken totaled to $68!!! When I got home and open up our food..... the eggs were not cooked, I asked for over easy. I had to re-cook it and add an extra egg as it was small. Also the whole bottom rice was completely burnt and smelled bad. Horrible taste. For first impression, this was a horrible experience. Will not be coming back! read more

"Dude where the heck are we?" "There's a Korean restaurant out here?"--The things my friend and I said when we got out of the car. Honestly, I didn't think too much of Koreana when we first drove into the parking lot. It's legit in the cuts, in a very worn down, sketchy shopping center. But looks can be deceiving, my friend and I actually had one of the tastiest, authentic korean lunches here. While they do offer table top kbbq, which btw is not AYCE, we opted to just order the ready made dishes on their menu. We ordered the soy sauce fried chicken, the spicy marinated raw crab and the galbi jjim (braised beef rib). Let me tell you, each bite we took, my friend and I would look at each other and say, "wow this is pretty good!". All the banchan had amazing flavor. The soy sauce fried chicken was crispy AF and while it was sauced, it did not get soggy. When it came to the table, I was worried it was going to be too sweet, but thank goodness it was just right. The soy sauce flavor came through. The spicy raw crab was excellent as well. Great flavor, spicy enough to have a kick but not too spicy where you're chugging water, and again--not too sweet. By the time we got to the galbi jjim, we were already getting full, but it was too good not to eat. The service we got was great! The place gives a mom & pop vibe and you can tell the workers really care about the experience you get here. The chef even came out to ask us how the food was and even warned me that galbi jjim is supposed to be sweet after I told her I don't really like sweet dishes. Side note: the galbi jjim was not as sweet as she made it out to be, it was actually perfect, the flavors were balanced and the meat was fall off the bone. Overall, this place is great. My friend and I met up for lunch to catch up. But I can tell you that we barely talked because we were too busy trying to stuff our face with Koreana's amazing dishes. read more

We ordered takeout from here this past Monday night because the kids begged for it. Me and my whole family love it here. I've only had Korean BBQ before, so finding this place and being able to taste more authentic Korean dishes was so satisfying! I am in love with their tofu soup with beef! Also bulgogi pancake and the dipping sauce is to die for, that might be my fave thing on the menu. Japchae and bbq chicken or spicy pork are the kids' faves! And now that we have tried two more soups, wow! I feel I crave Koreana every single week! read more

This place is a hidden gem in Fairfield. I got the hot stone bimbimbap which was delicious. And the banchan was the most flavorful I've ever had. I saw that they were short staffed and had only one server taking orders and setting up tables, but she was holding it down. As a fellow server, I understand how it feels to feel short staffed and slammed so respect to her. Ambience was great and felt everyone was having a good time. read more

VERY hole in the wall tucked away in a plaza, but a gem! It's a small place but was pretty busy on a Saturday evening. The two main servers were really nice and energetic, offering to keep our waters filled and refilling our side dishes too. The portions are definitely shareable and everything tasted really fresh from our side dishes to our main entrees. Food: - Unmarinated pork belly: SOOO good! Very flavorful and thankfully didn't have too much fat. - Kimchi tofu soup: I ordered this mild just in case it ended up being too spicy for me. It was perfect! Large chunks of tofu and a lot of kimchi. Packed with flavor, great for a rainy day. - Tteokbokki: YUM! I always order tteokbokki on any visit to a Korean restaurant and this one did not disappoint. I like how you can customize how spicy you want to order it too. Can't wait to be back soon to try out more of what they have! read more

Tried the Soy Sauce fried chicken and kimchi fried rice this time. The kimchi fried rice was good, had a little spiciness to it. I loved the spam mixed in, and the perfectly fried runny egg on top. You could see the actual kimchi pieces diced up too, unlike some other restos. I would definitely get this again if I wanted something extra, other than white rice. The soy sauce fried chicken was okay. The chicken did not have that signature crunchy batter that KFC (korean fried chicken) should have. The wings were decent size and juicy though. You could taste the soy sauce in the glaze, and it wasn't overly sweet, but it was just okay. I would stick with the fried wings appetizer over this fried chicken plate, as it wasn't really worth twice the price. Banchan is always on point. I've been 3x now and the banchan is always the same ones, so I like knowing what to expect. They do offer refill if you ask for it. They do have high chairs and booster seats for the little ones. I brought my toddler and they gave her plastic utensils to use, in addition to her own metal plate/bowl. They didn't give her a plastic water cup but that may be because they saw we brought our own. Waitress did not check on us or refill our water this time. They weren't super busy but they did have a couple large groups so she may have been focusing more on them. We were able to flag her down for the banchan refill which she did provide about 10 min later. read more

I've been coming here for years and never really found it amazing until I wanted to try spicy raw marinated crab. I used to usually get a soup or galbi but I've always felt they were just ok and overpriced. I'd usually get the galbi tang but they skimp out on the meat. Def not as great as other places in the Bay Area. However, I now realized that they do have a lot on their menu, such as various soups and bim bim baps compared to other places in the area; which is a def plus. If you can I'd advise not going before 1-1:30. They're BUSY and packed! For the husband and wife duo it's amazing that they're still somewhat patient. read more

Came back again to enjoy this wonderfully delicious food. If you have not been here, you are missing out. I was worried they would be closed for lunch, but they weren't. It was quiet because we were the only people but it started to fill up as we left for the early dinner rush. Service was really great and the ladies were nice to us, checking in and making sure we were okay. We got the spicy marinated crab SPICY which made it absolutely delicious because you should always feel the burn and get all the flavor of the sauce. My bf LOVED the mandu soondubu which we also got spicy as well as the fried chicken. It was soo crispy and juicy and everything was delicious. If you haven't tried it yet, run to try it now ! read more
