Do I have to say anything. Food here is amazing as always, have been back many times despite being walk-ins only and usually not without at least a short cue. The fried chicken is certainly a highlight. Lunch deals are great value. The food always has me feeling good after, compared to some other korean restaurants.

overall pleasant experience at by korea! highly recommend the pork and calamari bulgogi, extremely large portion and so tasty with rice! unfortunately the soy garlic fried chicken was too salty for us, and the sauce solidifies while eating which makes it a bit weird. bibimbap was average

I really enjoyed my meal at By Korea in the CBD. The beef bulgogi (spicy version) was full of flavour, tender, and nicely balanced with the right amount of heat. The honey glazed Korean fried chicken was another highlight—crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and coated with a delicious sweet glaze. The staff were friendly and cheerful, which added to the welcoming atmosphere. The only downside is that the space is a little cramped and it does get quite busy during peak hours, so be prepared for a lively vibe. Overall, a great spot for tasty Korean food!
