Best Korean Restaurants in Paris

Paris's Korean restaurant scene has grown steadily alongside the city's Korean community, which is concentrated in the 15th arrondissement around the Rue de la Convention — often called "Little Seoul" by locals. The neighbourhood offers some of the most authentic Korean cooking in Europe, from traditional barbecue to the comforting home cooking style known as hansik.

Beyond the 15th, Korean restaurants have spread across Paris, with younger Korean-French chefs opening contemporary restaurants in the Marais and Canal Saint-Martin areas that blend Korean flavours with French culinary technique. Korean fried chicken, tteokbokki street food, and Korean convenience store culture have all found Parisian audiences.
