Do not judge a book by its cover. This place doesn't look like much but trust me the food makes up for it. The restaurant is in a run down shopping center and needs some TLC so that's the only reason I didn't give it five stars. I ordered the hot pork bulgogi with rice and yaki mandu and it was absolutely amazing. It was spicy but not over the top heat. The flavor of the pork was great, the white rice helps with the heat as well. The yaki mandu were great little flavor bombs. Overall this was a great experience and I will be back for more. read more

Hole in the wall recommended by a coworker. So glad we found it! We tried the Korean chicken wings, beef bulgogi, udon noodles with chicken and Korean Ramen Soup with beef. Everything was delicious! The server (owner) was very kind too! We'll be back! read more

Delicious food every time. Love their veggie yakisoba. The service their is exceptional. The atmosphere is pleasant & serene. read more

My favorite is Korean Ramen soup and Beef bulgogi. Scrumptious! Sushi also excellent.

We had a pretty big party, service was quick and friendly and the food was amazing! We had hot pot bibimbap and Korean style ramen. It was legit good. I compare all ramen to ramen I ate when I lived in Japan and this was just as good but with Korean flavoring. read more

I can only speak for the ramen, as it is the only thing I go here for! Best in town, hands down! Keep in mind that the broth is different from the Japanese ramen that you may be familiar with. I thought I wasn't a fan of ramen until I came here. The service is very homey. The servers are very nice. Though, it may get rough during heavy traffic hours. It includes noodles, bulgogi, fried pot stickers, and a scrambled egg. Once you are finished, a server will come by and ask if you're ready for rice... What?! Omg more food! Yes, please (at this time you're completely stuffed)! read more

Narita Express - Ramen, bulgogi, egg, and pot stickers. Rice at the end of you're up for it! The server says that adding cheese is the trick. Haven't tried. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Goldsboro, North Carolina

This is one of my favorite places. The food is delicious. The Owners are very nice and friendly. I've eaten in and called for take out. The food is always hot and plenty. They never disappoint. Love this Restaurant. Rachelle W. read more

Tried this place out with co-workers and I personally wasn't too pleased. It lacked in seasoning and actual Korean spice. After spending a few days in Korea, their food is hard to forget because of their unique combination of spices with certain foods. I had their Korean wings and it didn't taste anything like Korean wings, it almost tasted like Pizza Hut wings, but double fried. For my main course I had bulgogi, and even that lacked in seasoning. By this review you can tell I wasn't too pleased, and I probably wont be visiting again. read more

Amazing food!!! There is nothing better in town than their bulgogi!! Their service is super fast too

Out of every restaurant I've tried that serves Korean food, this is my favorite. They are incredibly kind and accommodating, and the portions are great for the price. I haven't had a chance to sit down and eat there, but the restaurant itself is very clean and cute. Would be a great spot for a quick lunch with friends! read more

Food is awesome. Service is quick. Nice quiet spot to have dinner. Definitely recommend.

The food is decent meaning if you don't have time to travel then this restaurant is your go-to-place for "Korean" food. Korean food meaning 70% American and 30% Korean. read more

Amazing food. They made us feel like family. We had been looking all over for good Korean food after getting back from Korea. This place hits the nail on the head for that mom and pop small type restaurant. read more

This is probably one of the better Korean places around the area. Not the best I've ever had, but it does the trick. Usually I get the bulgogi, the the last time we came here, we tried the new Korean Ramen. That was a fun change. It's hard to find a Ramen joint in this area. read more

Good service, great authentic Korean food. I enjoy the bibimbap & the bulgogi. Ramen is meh.

This place is good, but their prices are ridiculous for delivery companies!!! So don't even waist yourself time if you want delivery. Takeout is ok, I recommend eating at the restaurant if you can. read more

Wonderful, authentic Korean food!! Still not able to dine in post-COVID, but you can call in and order and carry out.

Overshadowed, and as one of the few Goldsboro Asian restaurant options, Narita was mythically shrouded in a cloud of food mystery, speculation, and rumor. I had heard mixed reviews, but had yet to talk to anyone that had actually eaten there. So we went rogue and tried it for lunch one balmy Thursday afternoon. Narita features bulgogi, sushi, and udon soups - I went with the beef bulgogi lunch that came with salad, a flavorful, generous portion of 5-medium spice bulgogi, rice, and 6 California rolls for a reasonable $7.99. I'd love to try the udon soup on a cold, winters day and coincidently is what my friend Chelsie ordered. Narita suffers from an unfortunate location - the corner of Berkley and New Hope in a random shopping center with Oasis Spa, a martial arts dojo, and a tobacco shop. That doesn't deter me - I will eat here again, especially since it's so close to my house. read more

Really good bulgogi! I've tried a few places in goldsboro, but this place is hands down the best place to get bulgogi, and I also love their yakisoba with chicken. Doesn't look like much from the outside, but some of the best food and cute environment inside! I really recommend the egg rolls too because they are homemade. :) read more

My favorite Korean place Friendly server, food is amazing! Try the Mochi strawberry it's super good! read more

This little gem of a restaurant is tucked away in a not-so-great location. I say that, not because it's in a bad neighborhood, but because they just aren't very visible. If they were, I'm sure business would be booming, because the food is terrific. If you've never tried bulgogi (basically, it's Korean BBQ), do yourself a favor and go to Narita for lunch. They have great lunch specials that include beef, chicken or pork bulgogi. I'm not a fan of the pork, never tried the chicken, but OMG the beef bulgogi is out of this world! They also have some decent sushi options and really good prices. I don't really go here for the sushi - we normally just order a California Roll as an appetizer - but its pretty good. read more

best in town! i go here every chance i get and have been coming here for the past 4 years! they're ramen and chicken katsu are my faves!

The beef bulgogi is so awesomely good. Ate it with kimchi and beef pasta. Customer service was above reproach. Was better than the bulgogi I'd eaten, while stationed, in Korea. read more

Narita is quaint but very homey. Its ran by a family of five. They are very warm and welcoming and provide you with quality service. Be careful trying to find this place as waze sent me to the right area but wrong side of the building. Its alittle hard to get to but has ample parking. Make sure you walk into the fron door the door on the side is locked, so no they arent closed just walk around five more steps and you will see the front door. I had beef yakisoba. It reminded me alot of getting yakisoba at night on gate 2 street in okinowa...yes that means its very good. I couldnt eat the whole plate....they definitely give you enough to feed you. All in all it was worth the 40 min drive I made to meet a friend there for lunch. read more

Authentic Korean and Japanese dishes, always prepared to perfection! The service is friendly and they are willing to help you order if you have questions or aren't sure what you want. This is my favorite place in town to get bulgogi so I struggle to order anything else but love the ramen, sushi and kimbop as well. read more

The service, amount of food, and decor left something to be desired. The bulgogi was pretty good, I just thought they could have provided more. I wanted something to drink, and I had to go up to the counter to wait for a staff member to come out from the back. I'll definitely go again for lunch, so I'll give it another try and see if maybe it was just a first-time anomale, because I really want to like it more! read more

Our favorite restaurant in Goldsboro! This is a cozy, family-owned restaurant, and the couple is kind and warm-hearted. Customer service can make or break a restaurant, and that of this company is top-notch. As a Korean American, I can attest that their Korean food is authentic and delicious. I especially like their bulgogi and bibimpap. I'm from Jacksonville, where Korean food is scarce. I always make sure to drop in here when I'm in the area. read more

This place was not good at all. The service was bare minimum. The sushi tasted stale somehow and the Yaku-mandu was hardly anything to even eat. I couldn't even keep it down. My son and I heard that the ramen was good but it was not at all. The broth tasted watered down, the noodles were completely over cooked. My daughter loves bulgogi and so we ordered that from the kids meal and it was bought out on a plastic plate that you have at home where you have Dora the explorer on it but that's besides the point. My daughter didn't even want to finish her food after one bite. I don't understand why anyone raves about this place. I went once and that was enough for me. read more

Great little "hole in the wall" Korean restaurant. My absolute favorite dish are the ribs. They are thinly sliced peices of marinated short ribs served with sticky rice and a side salad. So delicious! The ginger dressing for the salad is so tasty I could probably drink it from the bottle. I am also a huge fan of the Bibimbap. I do not know exactly what is in it but I can never pick one meal over the other so I get both the ribs and Bibimbap. Half gets saved for lunch the next day. The wait staff, as mentioned in other reviews, are nice but not 5 star staff. I don't go for the staff though I go for the wonderful food. We will continue to make the 35 minute, one way, drive about once a week because the place is worth it. read more

Awesome place, love everything from here, especially the ramen bowl it's awesome!!And the wait staff is very nice, good place to try for your self read more

I'm a huge fan of the Beef Bulgogi. I've tried the teriyaki salmon and teriyaki chicken but I'm not a fan since teriyaki sauce in the mainland tastes different from the teriyaki sauce that you can find in Hawaii. My husband and I come here for lunch at least 2 times a month because we enjoy the fast and friendly service and we love the spicy Beef Bulgogi and ginger dressing! read more

My favorite place to go in Goldsboro. My whole family loves this place. Great service.

A couple of weeks ago, I ordered some California Rolls suishi and they didn't taste bad but they weren't really great either. They looked and tasted like they had been pre-cooked and frozen. However, the cost for them was quite inexpensive, so I can't complain too much. read more

I have only had the bulgogi from here and it's pretty decent if you need to settle a craving. They have a lunch special I tend to get and it comes with egg rolls so not bad. I like Jays Sushi better but this place is more convenient for the lunch hour. read more

My wife constantly talked about this place and the owner before we moved up from TX. Great place, great people. The beef bulgolgi is fantastic. Everything I ate was. read more

The staff is extremely friendly and quick to help you. The bulgogi is great for the area. It has been a bit Americanized, which is to be expected. But for Goldsboro, it's on point. read more

If you are looking for ramen this is the place to go I have consistently been a customer for a month now and there food is amazing.

Food is great. Bulgogi was tender and the service was great. Price was $6.99 for a lunch special and it was a perfect portion. I will be going back. read more

Worse ramen I've had in a while! The broth was tasteless and I felt like I was drinking flavored water (only thing you could taste was the egg). I asked for spicy and let's just say that wasn't met either. All in all, don't waste your $12, the 17cent ones from Walmart are bette read more

Family owned. I've eaten here twice. The kimchi is delicious! If you're looking for the Ritz go somewhere else, but if you want decent food, try it! read more
