Korean Restaurants in Milan

If you’re craving Korean food in Milan, you’re in luck,there are some genuine spots beyond the usual sushi and pasta.

Places like Seoul Food near Porta Romana won’t just serve you bibimbap but also Korean stews that feel like a warm hug on a chilly Milan evening. And don’t skip Namu in Isola, where the flavors are bold, and the kimchi here feels homemade. I always find myself going back for their barbecue; it’s a rare treat in Italy to see a proper grill on the table.

One thing to note: these restaurants often get busy during weekends, so if you want to avoid waiting, try going for an early dinner or late lunch. Plus, if you see haejangguk (hangover soup) on the menu, give it a try,even if you don't have a hangover. It’s a revelation.

Milan’s Korean scene isn’t huge, but it’s got a charm that feels genuine. And for a quick snack, check out some of the small Korean bakeries scattered around Chinatown. They often have the tastiest scrambled egg sandwiches and spicy rice cakes,perfect for a midday fix without breaking the bank.
