Very skeptical about trying this place from the mix reviews, but I am very glad I gave this place a chance. I came on a Tuesday afternoon, I decided to order take out. They had 2 other customers waiting. The staff was very nice and helpful when I asked them what are in each item. I ordered the kimbap, I was very surprised to see there was 2 rolls, 8 pieces each totally to 16 pieces (I ate two pieces before I took the picture), it was very flavorful, it comes bulgogi as the meat option, they do use a different meat then what I am used to but it was still delicious, it was sweet. The carrot and the radish really adds flavor. I then ordered the bibimbap, it came with a sunny side egg, mixed veggies and bulgogi again was the only meat option. The chili paste come on the side, inside the container, I would recommend asking them to put it separately if you can't handle the spice. I also wish there were side dishes, but I believe you can order those separately. Overall, the taste was good. I would eat it again. read more

I never expected to find an authentic Korean family restaurant next to corn fields, but I did, and it was delicious. Most of your favorite korean staples are here, kim bap, bulgogi, bibimbap, soon du bu. When in Watertown, this place is worth the 15 min drive if you want more than all the chain restaurants. read more

Koreana Restaurant - bibimbap and soondubu - Korean Near Me - Watertown, New York

It was okay. The food was very fresh and the service was great. I guess I had a different idea in mind or was expecting something different. I got the sesame chicken and it tasted just like simple fried chicken with some glaze on top and I may have seen a few sesame seeds. Now the waitress was super sweet and kind but again the food was just so so and the ambiance was that of a normal Chinese kitchen. Also, I paid $2.50 for a can of sprite. Again, she was super sweet but I went because a peer and friend of mine wanted to go and they both really enjoyed their food. It wasn't really that good to me at all. read more

Middle of the road Korean that can work in a pinch if you have korean food cravings... maybe. I have eaten here 4 times now. Here is my takeaway. * Whoever cooks the food is inconsistent. I have ordered the kimchi soup on two separate occasions. The First time was so salty it didn't sit right even eating it. The 2nd time it was really good. How there can be such a gap in quality is confusing. *The staff are very friendly *They are over priced for the portion size. My wife and I have ordered many things here and some are spot on great, hit the spot and we leave satisfied. Other dishes we regret spending the money on -especially at those prices. Mind you, those are dishes we already know and love. This leads back to inconsistencies in the kitchen. With as nice as the staff/owners are, I hate to say it.. but better Korean food can be had in Kingston or Syracuse. read more

I'm I'm good medium spice a little hot for us but it was very good. Chicken curry and a pork stir fry and soup everything was good. Will return. read more

Very small restaurant. The food was excellent! Our server was polite and very helpful in ordering. The food is authentic Korean.

We live in Hawaii and love Korean food! We found this little gem down the street from fort drum, NY and would 100000% recommend! It's a small location, but we love the friendly staff and food! Get Kalbi, meat Jun or a pint of cucumber kimchee! It's definitely our GO-TO! read more

Koreana Restaurant - two bowls of food on a table - Korean Near Me - Watertown, New York

Ordered food for take out as they are doing no dine in. The person who answered the phone when I tried to order the Korean pancake said they are not supposed to do that but will do it this time. There is nothing on the menu stating they don't do this during certain times or that is only for dine. Also ordered bulgogi & vegetable fried rice. For 3 items is was over $40!! It was a large portion for the fried rice but extremely salty. The bulgogi tasted nothing like anything bolgogi I have made or had at any other Korean restaurant & we have been to over 20 different ones. The pancake was very greasy. The women at the restaurant was obviously sick. She was coughing & sniffling. She shouldn't have even been working. She was wearing a mask but still don't come to work sick!!! I will never go back here. read more

Very quiet around 4:00 when I went. AMAZING FOOD. I had the shin house ramen. It had meat, shrimp, veggies, and noodles. Perfect level of spicy. I am so happy read more

Koreana Restaurant - Shin house ramen with egg and cheese - Korean Near Me - Watertown, New York

I really love kimchi and do have an good idea of what good kimchi should taste like. This stuff here, was awful and expensive. The ladies are very friendly, though. I looked their menu over and found it to be too expensive. But, do believe that you can judge a Korean restaurant by the quality of it's kimchi and this was terrible on a few levels. The kimchi was sour and not very well spiced. read more

While stationed on Fort Drum, my family enjoyed this very much. My husband is Korean, and loves kimbap. I don't love making it for him all the time, so a quick trip off post, and he got what he wanted. The ladies are always as nice as can be, they're prompt with the orders, and the pricing is fair. Since moving, I absolutely miss this place. I highly recommend giving it a try if you love Korean food. read more

Surprised to find a Korean restaurant in the area. It's off the beaten path and not the easiest to find. Ordered the pork bulgogi (spicy) and bibimbap. I was surprised to see they had jajangmyun, a Chinese-Korean dish, on the menu too. While I've had better Korean food in Flushing or New Jersey, I thought the food here was pretty good and grateful to find this place. While they only had a few side dishes, they were all fresh. Service was very casual and the food came out quick. read more

A greatly unassuming restaurant, you would not guess the food is good from the outside, but like many hole in the wall places, it exceeds expectations. The ladies that run this place are always so sweet and kind, and willingly explain the dishes to you if you are new to Korean food. I cannot say how authentic the dishes are, since I have never been to Korea, but they are delicious to me. read more

Would not recommend at all. I got the beef bulgogi today and it literally tasted and smelled like expired beef, could barely manage to give it shot but left most on my plate. The rice smelled and tasted just as bad. Yakimandu was good though. She seen I barely touched my food, asked if I wanted it to go, I politely said no, but she gladly took every penny of the $31 bill, way too much for the quality of food here. I don't think I could feel good about charging someone for food that was not enjoyed. Will never go back nor recommend to anyone that knows how good bulgogi should be. read more

I wouldn't come back personally but the lady was super nice and the soup wasn't bad for a snowy day. I think if you want some Korean in the area it's worth a try. I would go for noodles over soup! read more

If I could rate this no stars, I would. I've been spoiled by Columbus, GA Korean restaurants, because they're all amazing. This is not authentic Korean food, and I'm so disappointed in our meal. We both ordered the beef bulgogi, and an appetizer of the steamed Mandu. The mandu was okay, but not very flavorful. The beef was tough & tasted old. Bulgogi is usually heavily marinated, and typically rib eye steak. All you tasted was old beef. The rice was over cooked, under salted, and extremely gummy. The kimchi was spicy but no flavor. The small plates of kimchi, zucchini, and turnips were disappointing. I'm really sad this is where I decided to have my birthday dinner, because honestly McDonalds would've been a better choice. The service wasn't good either, one person running the entire restaurant. It took her a solid 10 minutes for her to get drink orders for me & my husband, and there was only one other table in the restaurant. After originally charging our card, she came back to say I missed this $10 charge, and I'm charging you another $10. The explanation wasn't made, and at this point we were ready to go, so we just said fine. Do not waste your time here!! read more

absolutely amazing Korean food, ive been to so many across the USA and never enjoyed korean this much, the service was incredible

My favorite place for Korean in the area. The food could definitely be more seasoned but the bulgogi is good. I do prefer mine with more sauce and char. read more

The address if you can't find is: 26216 Hwy 283 in Watertown. This was the ideal way for us to finish up our long weekend. We found this place on Yelp on our way back from Canada. First of all don't expect much more then your local Chinese place decor. However the service and food were far superior to the ambiance. We really enjoyed our food and service at this place. With an order of dumplings, beef entree, chicken entere and soda the total bill came out to a reasonable $30. I would recommend the place to all to visit when passing by. read more

Food is great considering the area. Good portions. Wish the bulgogi had veggies in it. The fried rice doesn't have any veggies or eggs in it either it's just brown rice. read more

I didn't expect much because I randomly found this place while I was traveling to Thousand islands. But to my surprise, food was really delicious and authentic Korea country food. I felt like I was in the country of Korea. read more

The best Korean restaurant in Watertown is probably the ONLY Korean restaurant in Watertown. Considering the location and the lack of Korean people in the area, the restaurant is actually pretty good. Not 100% authentic because the Korean owners do need to cater to the tastes of the people who live there, but close enough that I'm happy. My friend ordered bulgogi, which came with fried rice. Fried rice is not a Korean dish, nor do we ever serve bulgogi with it, but again, the owners need to cater to the tastes of the local people. If they want fried rice, they're going to get it. The marinade for the bulgogi is sweeter than what it should be. Again, you need to cater to the local taste. Don't get me wrong, the marinade tastes good. I liked it and enjoyed the dish, but true Korean bulgogi is not that sweet. I ordered dduk gook (rice cake soup). It was pretty good. The rice cakes were cooked a little too long and the soup was a bit saltier than I would like, but overall I was satisfied with my soup. The restaurant is nothing fancy, but they serve good food. I was happy with my meal and I would eat there again. read more

great food ! love the beef bulgogi here , probably the best i've ever had from a restaurant! definitely recommend to anyone in the area wanting amazing cooked food !! read more

This right here is the best Korean food you can get without getting on a plane. Dear lord this food is amazing. The 5 hour drive to get here was totally worth it. We had the bi bim bob, bulgogi, kim bob, and steamed mandu. Everything was absolutely delicious. Veggies and fruit all had their wonderful flavors working in tandem to create a beautiful explosion of flavor. If you are anywhere near Watertown and craving a new experience, this is the place you need to check out. read more

I got the yakimandu, kimbob, bulgogi shin ramen and Jajangmyeon. Everything was delicious. I wish the ramen came with chives and bamboo but it was good even without. It's only two people working in the shop, so please be patient. The wait is worth it. That said, the wait is only slightly longer than average. It didn't take longer than 30 mins for all my selections and my friends to come out. 10/10 will return. read more

ordered the spicy pork and i feel like i'm back in korea at one of the local spots in the ville. i've been to other korean places in the states, and the flavor is never quite the same. this was so good and authentic that i felt so nostalgic with each bite and forgot to take a picture. will definitely be back to try other dishes! read more

The day was snowing heavily and the temperature was in the ones. A great day for some ramen as I have been thinking about it since concluding the daily workout. I had the ramen as shown on the picture attached and it was straight out of the package. Over cooked, salty, and everything in the kitchen tossed in it. I can make a better serving at home anyway. The customer service was decent, the ambiance was okay, and the overall food quality was okay. read more

I am Korean. I went there about four years ago and visited recently. The owner/waitress recognized us, and remembered my son who was little at the time. The food was good then and it was still good. Given the location, you would think they would cater to American tastes, but their flavor was surprisingly true to Korean cooking. An extra star for that. read more

After living in San Francisco and having amazing Korean food I can't give more than three stars. Koreana's is definitely a nice spot for northern New York though! All I'm saying is that the food quality wouldn't survive in a higher populated area. But, the staff is very friendly here! I always tip well because of their true kindness. Their kimchi and beef bulgogi or spicy pork is what I order, very good. read more

Not good at all!! I have eaten at Koreana twice and both times I left disgusted and unsatisfied. I ordered an egg roll, which was alright, along with sweet and sour chicken and friend rice. The entree was terrible!! I couldnt even eat the rice. very casual setting. They do offer delivery and take-out I do not at all recommend. however, they did have french fries for children (by order) and that helped so we didnt have a hungry screaming child. Overall this place was not tasty at all and I dont ever plan on going back. read more

What can I say, this place is great! Friendly staff and awesome food. I will definitely miss this place when I move. read more

Feels like a home cooked Korean meal here. The lady that waited on us was super friendly and remembered us from a previous visit. This will be one of my go to places in town. On our first visit we had the Bibimbob. All the veggies were really fresh and cooked perfectly. The chili paste sauce that you can add to your liking had great flavor and really brought everything together. We pretty much licked the bowl. Second visit I had the spicy pork. It very much reminded me of the spicy pork my Korean friend's mom use to make when I came over to visit. Delicious! read more

As the owners of this place are Korean, I would not expect the Chinese food to be very good over here. Hence we ordered Korean dishes which were not too bad! I had a yukkaejang (not sure what it is in English, maybe a spicy beef soup?) and while I've had better, it was such a comfort to have in a land devoid of many Asian options. You can't go wrong with the bulgogi (marinated beef) and mandoo (dumplings - wrappers are thin unlike the Chinese dumplings). We were satisfied and moreover, very happy with the prices! The lady who served us was extremely friendly. The inside of the restaurant was nothing to look at; plain and drab. Stop by for a quick Korean food fix and you won't be disappointed. read more

Solid ramen spot and authentic Korean food! We come here ever month or so when we are Irish and have yet to be let down! The waitress is the same person every time and she always greets up quickly. The location and drink selection is nothing social but that not why you go to a restaurant. read more
