BEST KOREAN RESTAURANTS IN DELHI

It takes some effort to compile a list of Delhi’s top Korean eateries. While many Pan-Asian restaurants dominate the city’s dining scene, it’s uncommon to find one that limits that diverse palette to just the potent, controversial flavours found in Korean food. The seven restaurants on our list all pass the test for unabashed authenticity.

It takes some effort to compile a list of Delhi’s top Korean eateries. While many Pan-Asian restaurants dominate the city’s dining scene, it’s uncommon to find one that limits that diverse palette to just the potent, controversial flavours found in Korean food. The seven restaurants on our list all pass the test for unabashed authenticity.

BUSAN KOREAN RESTAURANT

Busan Korean Restaurant’s lovely bay window and bamboo decor make it particularly ideal for brunch, but there’s no reason you can’t visit this Majnu Ka Tila location for a quick Omurice or Yukgaejang dinner as well. Their pancakes, the Ganja Jeon and Kimchi Jeon are both excellent.

HAHN’S KITCHEN

Hahn’s specialises in Korean cuisine, which makes up the majority of their very wide menu. You may also find a small selection of authentic Japanese dishes there. If you’re a daring diner, make sure their Dogani Tang (slow-simmered ox knuckle soup) and Naksam Dubbap (spicy rice bowl with octopus and pig) are on your table.

RESTAURANT DE SEOUL

Despite being a little on the small side, Restaurant De Seoul’s environment succeeds by creating a cosy atmosphere. Instead of a picture-perfect setting, anticipate a menu full of traditional Korean dishes, such as exquisite chicken ginseng soup and stir-fried hog intestines. You should be prepared for adventurous meat cuts and novel ingredients because this isn’t seasoned to suit a pan-Asian palate.
