Our Favorite Restaurant!
The food at Korea House is wonderful and we have tried many different dishes. The servers, while a little slow are as nice as can be and the slowness is often due to not enough people working at this family run business. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone. Love the Kalbee and the Dol Sot Bi Bim Bop!

I Compared... Okay Food.
So I have no choice but to compare this to Seoul Hotpot considering they are not too far away and Seoul Hotpot was where we regularly ate korean food. The food was not as good IMHO, but the atmosphere is different. A little more classy than SHP (which is more homey, laid-back). The Ojingeo Dwuigim (fried squid) was not very crispy, was chewy, but the flavor was good. The Gonji Gui (mackeral) was extremely salty, but I hear it's supposed to be salty. Again, the flavor was good, but it was difficult to eat due to the salt. The banchan as well, was not quite as good as at Seoul Hotpot, but I may go again to try some of their other dishes.

Amazing food
We went to the korean house in search of a good korean food!!! WE FOUND IT. The taste of the food was amazing. Service can be a little slow as metioned but they bring you side dishes and rice. Typical korean dinners will only have a couple people of staff beacuse the atmosphere is relaxed. I recommend everyone there. Only problem is it takes 45 minutes to drive there.

Excellent food
Wonderful Korean restaurant. Sure, the dining room is austere and the service is minimal, but Korean restaurants are not known for friendly Western style service. You go for the food...and you'll get great cuisine, fresh clean flavors and ingredients. The pan chan selection is always excellent and generous in number, even when you are dining by yourself. Try the duk mandu guk soup...the dumplings were very light and the soup very full of rice cake and egg. The chigae and soon du bu (how I judge a Korean restaurant) were perfect, as was the dol sot bi bim bap. In a city with very few good Asian restaurants (I grew up in Japan and China), this is one of my regular stops in Cleveland when I get the craving.

Korean House is the place to eat!!
We just visited this restaurant and another word then "wonderful" I can not find to describe its food! we had BBQ ribs and they were the best I ever had. The staff was wonderfull and the dining room was modest but clean and pleasant to be in. I am going to recommend it to all of my friends even we have to drive 25 miles to get there. Loved it!!!

Service will turn you away
Decent food, however, service was terrible! Only one server during busy lunch hour on weekend-- took 15 minutes just to get some water and menu, took another 20 to order the food, another 30 to wait for the food, and the male server throws dishes on the table at you rather than "serving" them. Once food is served, he never looks at your table--water was never refilled not even once. It was just two of us eating, he seemed to pay more attention to table with more people at-- aiming for more tips or what??
We almost wanted to leave a penny for the service we received.
We'd been there another time before, and received terrible service, but decided to give it another chance and the service couldn't have been any worse. It infuriated us!!!! and we will NEVER go back to the restaurant ever again!!!!!! THE Worst service we have received in our entire life.

At Korea House, the food is as authentic as the surroundings are austere. The dining room, a low-ceilinged rectangle, contains perhaps a dozen tables, including seating for larger parties. The tables can fill quickly, frequently with families, and busier-than-usual meal times can find the dining room slightly understaffed. But the food is worth the wait. Ban chan (salads) include shreds of mild Japanese radish, marinated spinach and fiery turnip cubes in kimchee spices. Sangsun jigae, one of several soups, cooks scrod and tofu in a spicy broth with turnips, zucchini and scallions. Kalbee gwee jungsheek (beef short ribs) are marinated, charcoal-broiled and served flavorful and tender.
