Tang Tang Tang is an infamous Korean restaurant in Chinatown known for its excellent bone ox soup. The food here is a bit pricier than some of the other Korean options, but it’s worth it.

3. Komex Fusion

Komex Fusion is one of the best restaurants in Las Vegas. They found a way to perfectly combine Mexican and Korean cuisine in a way that tastes amazing. You’ll find this small restaurant in the northern part of Las Vegas on Decatur Blvd. I recommend that you try their fusion tacos, fusion burritos, bulgogi cheesecake, and bulgogi rice bowls. The service here is fast and friendly, but they have limited hours. Komex is closed on Sundays but is open from 11 am to 8 pm Monday-Saturday.

The menu options range from sweet and sour pork, fried chicken, shrimp, kalbi, and bulgogi to fried rice, noodles, and cheeseburgers. Island style also offers a decent all-day breakfast menu. This is one of the few Korean food restaurants in Las Vegas that offers both takeout and delivery. Just keep in mind that they’re closed on Sundays.

Buldogis also makes great chicken wings, homemade chili, bulgogi, fresh slaws, kimchi, gourmet fries, and bibim rice bowls. If you don’t eat meat, Buldogis offers a Veggie Dog too.

8. Garionban

Garionban is a casual restaurant that serves customary Korean dishes like bossam, jokbal, and gookbap. Their entree menu is very affordable, but they also offer a pricier special menu that features a few hard-to-come-by dishes. Not only can you sit down for a meal at Garionban, but they deliver as well.

13. Best Friend

Best friend is a Mexican-Korean fusion restaurant found inside the Park MGM. The restaurant is owned by Roy Choi, who created the gourmet Korean-Mexican Kogi Taco Truck. Since it’s located inside of a hotel on the Strip, the food is more expensive, but it’s worth it. I highly recommend the Kogi tacos and kimchi fried rice. The lamb lollipops and pork choppers are also very good. It’s important to note that Best Friend doesn’t open until 5 pm, but it remains open until 11 at night.

It has a cheap AYCE (all-you-can-eat) menu for only $18.45, which includes different cuts of beef, pork, chicken, and seafood. Tofu Hut is also known for its excellent tofu soup, which is where it got its name. The steamed eggs are worth a try as well.
