One word! INSPIRED. Maybe the best kept secret in Fort Wayne. Everyone should eat here. I eat out ALL THE TIME. Ryu's Kitchen is a cut above. You can taste the love cooked into the food. Excellent service. The waitress, Betty, was attentive, kind and friendly. The food was delicious and perfectly cooked. The chicken dumpling was crisp on the outside and juicy inside. The kimchi spicy and vinegary but not overpowering. The flat shrimp Dim sum had this sweet tangy sauce. The savory pork belly was served on a sizzling hot plate. The vegetables cooked to perfectly tender but still crisp and clearly fresh.; the pork belly crispy and delicious. All tied together with the iced honey ginger tea. Yum. Definitely a new favorite! read more

Wonderful atmosphere and even better wait staff. I ordered an appetizer of chicken dumplings and the beef bulgogi. The chicken dumplings were crisp and flavorful paired with perfect dipping sauce. The bulgogi came with with steamed rice and was seasoned well. The portions really good and I left there feeling satisfied. Will definitely be back to try more menu items. read more

Great food. We wanted to try something new and were pleasantly surprised with this little hidden gem.

Food was Poggers, friendly people, very scrumptious. Spicy shrimp and noodle yummy. Much Wow!

Experienced Ryu's for the first time it was delicious! Tried the Bulgogi, excellent flavor, and beautiful plate presentation. Next time will order an extra side of rice. Cute atmosphere with nice music playing in the background. read more

This place is a great spot for lunch, dinner, and takeout. Half of my visits are for lunch during the work week, a welcome respite from the hospital. The beef bulgogi is probably the best thing I've had here, but the chicken bulgogi isn't far behind. The beef bibimbop is good, but pales in comparison to Naked Chopsticks' version. My wife, a card-carrying vegetarian, enjoys the heck out of the tofu bulgogi. read more

This was my first experience trying Korean food and I was NOT disappointed at all!! My food was delicious and the waitress was very helpful. I can't wait to go back the next time I go up to Fort Wayne!! read more

My new favorite spot. It's hard for me to come since they are closed on the day I'm off work. But whenever I get a chance I love coming here. Friendly staff, delicious food, and the atmosphere is very relaxed! I got bibimbap and it was wonderful, just the right portion ! read more

Amazing! I got the Chicken Bolgogi. It was a perfect dish and also perfectly portioned. They take pride in what they serve here. The chicken, veggies, and rice where all fresh and tasted great! It's a must try! read more

It's so nice to have this Korean option nearby. The environment of the restaurant is very cute, fairy lights and just adorable aesthetic. The food and drinks were delicious and legitimately flavorful, beautifully presented. Looking forward to visiting again! read more

From the outside it might not seem like much but the food and service was exceptional. We ordered dumplings which tasted good and were served hot. For our entrees we go the bulgogi, kimchi, a salad, and several bibimpap. All were great. We travels here for a special occasion and wished we lived closer so we could eat here more often. read more

First time trying this restaurant. Was an ok-ish experience. Had a nice ambiance and the woman working was kind. As a person who loves Korean food I was disappointed in the taste. I ordered the pork belly and it was dry and tough not very well heated either :( , not a savory flavor and I unfortunately could barley taste any spice in the kimchi. Most likely to give this place another try at some point and try something different on the menu. read more

Really good food. You can taste the fresh ingredients. Beef bugogi? I know I probably butchered the spelling, was great. They give you a couple small sides. Kimchi was good, loved the dressing on the little side salad. My only complaint, I couldn't find the menu online. Made it difficult to order without going there. They have a small menu, but the few things I had were above the status quo. read more

Flippin incredible !!! Love the oriental dressing on the side salad Great service!!! read more

We discovered Ryu's Kitchen thanks to vegan restaurant week and what a gem! Our carry out order consisted of fried dumpling, tofu bulgogi, and vegetable rice noodles. All of the dishes were excellent! I love the flavor in the dumplings and the vegetable rice noodles had just a bit of crispiness that was very tasty! I would recommend them and will definitely be adding them to our carry out rotation. read more

Enjoyed the Tofu rice noodle and honey ginger tea. Very tasty Korean food available here. read more

My first meal with Ryu and I am in love! Amazing, delicious and great service. Don't miss out on this gem Fort Wayne! I recommend the bibimbob. Tofu options for us vegetarians and my meat eating coworkers are also big fans. Love love love! read more

I just picked up take out and so good BiBimBop wow . Great food in an area I'm not familiar with . I'm from Chicago and we have Great Korean food . Congratulations on an authentic taste . The staff was gracious enough to save my evening by letting me place a takeaway order even though they were closing. I travel to this area a few times a year and I'll definitely be back Thanks again Cheers read more

I love Ryu's kitchen. We have always had friendly and quick service. All of the food we've tried has been delicious. My favorite is the pork belly, but there are many delicious menu items. read more

Always wanted to try this place and I def did not regret trying it out. Went here with my boyfriend on a weekday for lunch. Inside was a cute little place. Not too decorative yet cute and simple. We were greeted and got our seats right away. The menu didn't have that many selections but that's okay with me! Large menus tend to make my decisions harder lol. I ended up ordering the seafood tofu... it was delicious. There was a lot of seafood and it was the perfect size for me. I wish it came out in a clay pot like other Korean places :(. My bf got the beef bulgogi. He thought it was good but it was part of the lunch so there wasn't that much meat for him. He said he'll def try something else next time. Something that I would love for them to have would be side dishes...! I love Korean side dishes.. they're the best! Will we come back? Definitely! We think it's better than Seoul garden! :) can't wait to come back. read more

Anytime you see someone that is probably the owners Grandma cooking, stay and eat. Went for lunch today with my wife after hearing about it from a friend. Haven't had Korean before, so this was a bit outside my comfort zone. The beef bulgogi is outstanding. Extremely flavorful. I literally had to consciously stop and take a break from attacking it. It was that good. Wife had the chicken which was equally delicious. Another small, family owned business in Fort Wayne just killing it with their food! Eat local, folks! read more

The spicy kimchi pork was excellent. The small side dishes were a nice flavorful assortment of sesame salad (delicious dressing!), a chicken dumpling, and a bit of kimchi. Service was friendly and location seems safe. Price seems a tad high but still reasonable for location and portion. Seafood soup wasn't a favorite this time but happy to give it another try again some time. read more

Cozy joint on State and Hobson, the menu has no losers as all of their dishes explode with flavor and craftsmanship. A nice deviation from just regular Asian takeout. read more

First time here and a definite improvement of over the previous business that was here. The beef bulgogi was fantastic and the spicy actually lived up to the description. The staff was friendly and there is a great laid back feel to the place. I will definitely be back to try more of the menu, portion size tapped me out. Left full, satisfied and with a great burn on my tongue! read more

This place is amazing. We are always pleased when we order carry out or eat in. It's very clean and inviting and the staff are super.

Wanted to try this place out, so stopped in for lunch. Located on Hobson Rd, in Big Ricks old place. Limited menu for lunch, I opted for the Kimchi Pork, the wife the Chili Chicken. Both meals were good, but a little on the "safe" side when it comes to Korean food. My pork had an almost sweet flavor (and not a lot of kimchi), the wifes chicken was basically lightly breaded chicken nuggets with a chili dipping sauce on the side. Made for a nice light lunch, but certainly not cutting edge Korean. The wife did love her plum tea. No alcohol served. Food was served quickly. Our server was fantastic, very friendly, but not overbearing. The young Korean chef also stopped by to make sure everything was okay. Will return soon to try the dinner menu, which looked much more interesting. As it stands, we enjoyed our lunchtime meal there. read more

It was a perfect lunch. I had the Spicy Kimchi Pork and plum iced tea. The pork came with a little side of rice. The price was a very reasonable $7.99 plus the tea, and the lone server was attentive and friendly. The rice was sticky and perfect. The "spicy" was the elusive "just right" - not burning, and definitely not bland. Perfect. The pork was lean and perfectly cooked. It was all delicious. What a nice surprise sitting on Hobson Road in Fort Wayne. You should go. read more

Delicious! Pork bulgogi, pork belly and appetizers just to name a few! The shrimp dim sum was also tasty! Customer service is acceptable, and the food quality is worth the short wait when ordering to go! read more

Can't say enough good things about this place. First the food is amazing! I've had the pork belly and also the Bulgogi and they were both incredible. Portion size is perfect, price is fair, and the service is welcoming and attentive. You won't regret it if you dine here. read more

Incredible food! Just make sure you know what you're getting before you go in, and that is KOREAN food. If you don't like exploring new foods, don't leave a bad review because of it. Go in with an open mind and empty belly and you'll leave a fan! Get some tea while you're there as well! read more

If you want to taste real authentic Korean food, this is the place. They have a number of specialty dishes. I personally love their Bi Bim Bob. read more

Great service. Perfect portion size. Amazingly delicious food. Dumplings and spring rolls. Yum. Beef bulgogi, pork belly, garlic chicken and chicken and rice noodles. read more

Ryu's food is SOOO good. the chicken bulgogi is my favorite. her chicken dumplings are also the best dumplings i've ever had. for real, no one tops them. if i ever moved out of Fort Wayne i don't know what i'd do without Ryu's Kitchen. read more

First and foremost, the kimchi was delicious. The pork dumplings were fresh and light with a excellent dipping sauce. Both the Beef Bugogi and the Sae Woo Bokkeum (Spicy Vegetable Shrimp) were very good. Will definitely go back. read more

The dumplings are delicious! We enjoyed the teas, both iced and hot (no refills). Not ever having had Korean food before we are now fans! The savory flavor in the dishes are delicous. The service is good, helpful in explaining dishes and making recommendations. read more

Once again had a great experience here. The server was charming and kind, and the food was delectable. I wish we lived closer and could eat here once a week. I especially liked the lemonade rose hot tea today: it was delightful on a bitter, windy December day. Thank you for a wonderful lunch. read more

Super cute interior - very quaint. Server had limited knowledge of menu and seemed unwilling to accommodate food sensitivities. The Spicy Kimchi Pork I had was SUPER spicy and the meat in both dishes was very fatty. My friend ordered some buckwheat tea that had leaves floating in it...most likely buckwheat, lol. Perhaps it's a cultural thing not to strain the tea. Server kept waters refilled and was very attentive. I would go back, but do some menu research first. read more

This is a wonderful little restaurant and it's definitely a great place for casual dining. Perfect place to take someone on a casual date and the prices are very affordable! They have the perfect amount of options on their menu, not too much yet not too little to decide from. The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and presented well on the plate. You can tell the food was prepared fresh and with care, and you're getting what you pay for; a fresh and generous portioned meal. This is more cost efficient and healthier compared to a fast food spot like Wendy's or McDonald's! The waitress is a sweetheart, very kind, and memorized orders without having to write them down! The atmosphere is laid back. It's calm, quiet, and they play music in the background that is soothing. Overall my mother and I were extremely satisfied and full, we will definitely be coming back and referring friends to this restaurant! read more

Very nice Asian restaurant. I had no complaints. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The service was excellent. The food came out fast and was nothing short of delicious. The prices are reasonable. I had the Spicy Kimchi Pork. 8.50 Gochujang marinated pork stir-fried with our house made kimchi and freshly prepared vegetables. It was wonderful. Asian comfort food with a kick! With a spring roll and dumpling to start, the entree and water to drink, my bill was $10.65. I tipped 40%. It was worth every penny! read more
