I’m coming there around 4 pm with my fiance. I order pork kimchi stew and my fiance order set value menu for spicy garlic chicken. My food come first and his food come around 20 minutes after me. Its was a bit disappointing. Because behind my table they come after us and got their chicken first. Which is not make sense for us. And we both working in the F&B industry and use to work at korean restaurant before. So we know the estimation for 1 plate chicken to come out. And not to mention when we sit there the restaurant an is not on full house. So we don’t understand the reason why our food come late. I ask my fiance to as his food to the boy staff and the they just said “it’s coming now” without saying sorry or apologise about the food was late. And the girl staff that serve the food not smiling at all and just put the food at table not saying what the food name was. It’s so so bad for the service all staff rude no smile. I understand working at F&B was so tiring. But customer is customer that need welcoming gestures. And last one when I paid the food that girl just take my receipt with ask did I need it or not.she wanna throw it. I reach my hand to her and she just ask like nothing happened. It’s not my first time eat here. But the food also taste not as good as before. I don’t want to complain but it’s so so so...

This is one of the best Korean restaurants in Melbourne. If you love Korean food, this place is definitely worth a visit.

The fried chicken here is crispy and perfectly coated with sauce, making it absolutely delicious. The balance of flavors is just right, and every bite is full of crunch and juiciness. It is definitely one of the best Korean fried chicken dishes I have ever had.

Their cold noodles are also amazing. The soup has a nice sourness that makes it refreshing and flavorful. The noodles have a firm and chewy texture, which makes them very satisfying to eat. If you find the noodles too long, the restaurant provides scissors, so you can easily cut them to your preferred length.

My friend ordered the hot stone bibimbap, and it looked really delicious. It came in a hot stone bowl, which made the rice crispy at the bottom. The portion was quite large, and my friend couldn’t finish it all, so they packed the leftovers in a takeaway container.

The staff are very friendly and welcoming. They always serve with a smile.

Since the restaurant is located in a small alley, it might be a little hard to find. However, once you discover it, you will definitely want to...

I have visited this place numerous times, and it has become a must go destination whenever I find myself in Melbourne. Each time I am in the city, I make it a point to visit as frequently as possible, as the experience is truly unparalleled. This restaurant serves the best Korean cuisine I have ever had the pleasure of tasting and experiencing. The food is absolutely delightful, and the portions are generous, providing excellent value for the price you pay. Every dish, from the succulent chicken to the variety of sides, is prepared to perfection and bursting with flavour. The chicken is cooked to a golden crisp on the outside while remaining tender and juicy on the inside, and the sides offer a delightful array of textures and tastes that complement the main course beautifully. The atmosphere is inviting and comfortable, making it a great spot for both a casual lunch and a more formal dinner. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Melbourne, whether you are a fan of Korean cuisine or simply looking for a memorable dining experience. I am certain that once you try it, you will be planning to return again and again,...

ORDERED: 🌽 Corn cheese ($19.00) 🥟 Vegetable fried dumplings: 6 pieces ($13.00) 🥞 Chives Pancake ($18.00) 🍜 Cold soup noodles ($21.00) 🍚 Prawn & beef fried rice with egg, cheese & mayo ($24.00) 🍗 6 in 1 combo ($83.00) We paid $29.67pp between 6 people. REVIEW: All the dishes are good. The quantity is incredible for the price. We ate our fill and still paid sub $30pp which is almost unheard of! However the food is exactly what you imagine and could expect from Korean dishes. It's solid. Since we ordered the 6 in 1 combo, there was also enough mustard to go around (I see another reviewer mentioned not enough mustard for the smaller portion). The atmosphere is one of the memorable things about By Korea. It's a busy restaurant, with lines constantly moving. Staff are helpful once you flag for their attention. Cash has no discount but card has 1.4% surcharge. By Korea is a comfortable environment to catch up with friends over solid food. That's probably why it's been around for years!

I had never eaten Korean cuisine before and "By Korea" was recommended to me by a Korean colleague. The food and service were outstanding. The staff were very friendly, greeting me as soon as I enter through the door and continuing to be very hospitable throughout my meal. My friends and I started with two (2) types of fried rice, vegetarian and Kimchi and Ham. The lovely staff member recommended we also try the beef bulgogi, and the rice and fish cake in chilli (as I mentioned I enjoyed spicy food). We had also heard on numerous occasions that By Korean had really great Korean fried chicken so we added a serve of that as well. All the food was delicious, well portioned and we all left very satisfied and somewhat over full (in no way the restaurants fault, purely our own for not wanting to waste a bite). I would highly recommend checking this little laneway restaurant out next time you are in Chinatown.
