Korean Market in San Antonio is a compact, no-frills spot where both Korean groceries and a modest restaurant coexist under one roof. It’s the kind of place that draws people looking to cook authentic Korean meals at home as well as those craving a genuine taste without the fuss of a full-service restaurant.

Inside the market, narrow aisles are stocked with a broad selection of Korean staples—from sauces, oils, and ramen to fresh produce and frozen items. Browsing here feels like a mini dive into Korean food culture, with a variety of snacks, banchan (side dishes), and even cooking utensils making it easy to find just what you need for both everyday meals and special recipes. The market also carries trendy items that locals and curious visitors alike might be hunting for, like Korean fruit ice cream or popular snacks seen on social media.

The small restaurant tucked inside offers a cozy, informal spot to sit down for dishes that are straightforward but well-executed. Expect classics like kimchi stew and beef bulgogi served simply with rice and complementary banchan. It’s not a spacious dining experience, and the menu is limited, but the quality speaks for itself. This makes it a good stop for those who want a quick, comforting Korean meal without the distractions of a larger dining room.

Atmospherically, the market can feel a bit snug but usually manages a relaxed rhythm, as it’s not often crowded. The staff’s friendly approach helps create a welcoming environment, especially for shoppers who might be new to Korean ingredients or looking for cooking advice. Weekdays or quieter times might be best for an unhurried browse and meal, while weekends can bring more local families and food enthusiasts drawn by the authentic offerings.

Overall, Korean Market suits visitors who appreciate hands-on food exploration and those wanting a modest but genuine Korean dining experience without any pretense. It represents a slice of Korean culture grounded in the local community, offering both the materials and the simple dishes that bring those flavors to life.

Best Korean food I've had in San Antonio. Not fancy. Not spacious. Restaurant inside had a limited menu with outstanding results. Even the side dishes get five stars! As for the market side, the aisles are worth spending time exploring. You are sure to find the ingredients you need: sauces & oils, frozen foods, noodles, ramen, snacks, fresh produce, cooking utensils, packaged fresh side dishes, barbecue supplies, and on. This was my first visit and I will 100% be returning to shop and eat.

The restaurant inside the market is cozy and delicious. We went into the store and found some dessert afterwards, it’s such a cool place. In the image is kimchi stew and beef bulgogi, both dishes came with rice and banchan.

Awesome place with very sweet staff. I went here because I was looking for the TIKTOK Korean fruit ice cream and they had lots of them here but when looking around there was lots of options with very reasonable prices.

This Korean market is legit. They got soju they got pepero pocky sticks. They have lots of yummy Korean snacks and goods and fresh foods. It’s a little cramped, but it’s usually not too busy and they got lots of stuff so it’s expected. Love this place would highly recommend for a Korean experience in their market.

Amazing hidden Mom and Pop Korean Market. I’ve been to a few in this city and this one by far is the best. So many selections and variety of items. We’ve been searching for authentic ice cream fruits and they have them here! They also gave us free sushi! Definitely will be back!!!

I love their fresh food items. The kimchi is delicious. Bean sprout salad is really good. They have a great variety of sauces, seasonings, snacks, and soju. This is my go to Korean market. If they don't have what I need, then I'll start shopping other places.

First time here. Been years since I’ve had real deal Korean food. Did a stretch in Korea back in the day and for years I’ve been looking for a spot that came close to the quality I had in Korea and let me tell you, THIS IS IT!! WOW!! This place is amazing. I can not wait to go back! This place brought back some memories! Definitely recommend! Good food! Great service! Clean facility. 5 stars!

A comprehensive Korean Store and a restaurant. Almost everything is authentically Korean products. Grocery area is rather small. Only thing that is missing is the prices on almost all kitchenware. Since this is an authentic Korean store, I could safely assume that customers refrain from taking the product to the register because it may be pricier than they anticipate. I can tell that I didn't grab several items, because it would be rather ridiculous to hold up the register and ask the cashier price for each one.
