Petaling Jaya’s 10 must-visit Korean eateries
Korean culture has slowly but steadily grown in popularity in Malaysia. It includes things like their music, television programmes, clothes and boy bands, and food.

Not to worry, we’ve compiled a list of the best Korean restaurants in PJ, so you don’t have to!

Bulgogi Brothers
Bulgogi Brothers is another excellent choice for those looking for top-notch Korean BBQ. As one of the few Korean BBQ restaurants in KL that delivers high-quality meat at a reasonable price, they take great pleasure in their business. When it comes to serving beef bulgogi, they were the first to offer the heart-shaped kind. In addition, they provide a wide selection of traditional Korean cuisine on their menu. You’ll discover delicacies like Samgyetang (ginseng chicken), which is unusual in Malaysia, on the menus of Korean restaurants. Bulgogi Brothers is a good option if you’re looking for something fancier.

Mido Korean BBQ Restaurant
The interior of Mido Korean BBQ Restaurant is stunning. There is a lot of attention to detail in the design of the building, from the entryway to the inside. This is especially true for their grill, which is why charcoal has always been preferred over normal induction or gas. It’s also possible to pick from a large range of marinades to go along with the meat, but keep in mind that they’re not exactly inexpensive. There are also the normal selections of side dishes, nothing too extravagant. If you like high-quality smoked pork, this is a must-see.
Address: 53A, Jalan SS 2/75, SS 2, 47300 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia
Every day, from 11:30am until 11:00pm
