Best Korean Restaurants in Northeast Philly

We went to Kooma for the first time last night. The food and service were both excellent. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Bao buns were incredible! Will come back again!

Our server was so lovely and the food was delicious as always. My only complaint is that we were sat at a high top next to the bar, and there was a group of people huddled right next to our table and standing up behind the bar stools. They were blocking the walkway for the server and also so close to our table that we couldn’t really hear each other at times. The men in the group were really loud and obnoxious on top of being in everyone’s way. I’m also a server so I found it really annoying that people were standing around the bar like that in such a narrow space. Management needs to be on top of that for the server’s sake because I felt really bad watching all the servers and support staff struggling to get around the group of people.

We went for restaurant week. The food was good but other things people around us ordered looked really good. Would like to go back and try additional items!

Always a very nice experience. Neighborhood place with superior food, prep and service. Relatively small but comfy.
