Korean Village

Welcome to Korean Village, a hidden gem located in Pleasanton, CA, that offers a flavorful journey through authentic Korean cuisine. As a food reviewer of Restaurant World, I have had the pleasure of experiencing the delightful offerings at Korean Village. From the welcoming Lee family to the cozy ambiance, this restaurant truly captures the essence of Korean dining.

As I perused the menu, I was impressed by the diverse selection of dishes, ranging from traditional Korean BBQ to comforting stews and delectable noodles. The Fried Dumplings and Kimchi Pork pancake were standout appetizers that set the stage for a memorable dining experience. The Short Rib B.B.Q. and Sea Bass Stew continued to impress with their bold flavors and inviting aromas.

Customer reviews echoed my sentiments, with praises for the Seafood Pancake's large octopus pieces and the bold flavors of the Kimchi Pork Tofu Soup. Korean Village's simplicity in menu design makes decision-making a breeze, allowing diners to focus on savoring each dish.

    Today is Korean Village's last day and I'm so sad. We've been going over the last 11 years and have so many memories there. We love the Lee family and glad that we got a chance to know them (even seeing their son growing up). Our favorites were: Kimchi Pork pancake, Bulgogi, Mushroom soup. Hoping for them to create another restaurant. If not, we wish them a happy retirement. Thank you!

    Rally good. The seafood pancake had large pieces of octopus. The kimchi pork tofu soup, medium spice level, was hotter than expected. I'll be back.

    My husband and I were craving Korean BBQ and found Korean village through Yelp. We came around 5:40p on a Sunday and they weren't too busy. The menu is only two pages so it makes deciding what to eat much easier. We ended up ordering the full order of the Kalbi and a seafood pancake. We really enjoyed both dishes! The seafood pancake was very crispy and had large chunks of squid. The side dishes served was also quite delicious and we were able to get seconds on some of them at the end of our meal. Service was really on point with the staff coming to check on us and being courteous. I am glad I discovered this place for next time I'm craving Korean food!

    Located in the Valley Plaza next to the UPS store. This is a hole in the wall and it is a must try!!! Don't be fooled by the dark windows and outdated interior...the food is amazing and delicious!! Menu is very simple; don't expect a fancy menu with photos. Service was fantastic and the older lady (maybe the owner?) super was nice and attentive. We ordered the seafood pancake and the pancake is super crispy and there were chunks of shrimp and squid in there. This is an absolute must-try! I've tried other Korean places and usually the pancake is filled with onions. Best seafood pancake I've had! Assorted tofu soup (pork, beef and seafood) - it came to the table piping hot and the broth is delicious! Flavor is tasty and has deep umami flavor. Prices are very reasonable and you can order online for pickup.
