Just east of Central Avenue North and just north of I-694, King's is a Korean-karaoke spot with some of the best spicy comfort foods around. The room can get pretty loud sometimes, as Korean moms sing their hearts out in front of karaoke monitors full of cherry blossoms. Still, King's--with its full bar, friendly service, late hours, low prices, and giant bowls of chile-laced soups to cure whatever ails you--is one of the best restaurants in the underserved north/northeast/Columbia Heights/Fridley corridor.
Unless somebody just bought one of those inflatable airplane-evacuation slides at Ax-Man, the most happening thing going on in Fridley on a Friday or Saturday night is likely taking place at King's Fine Korean. The tables are all cluttered with small white bowls of panchan, a spread of side dishes to rival those at Thanksgiving dinner. And the place tends to be packed with diners young and old, hunched over plates of lip-smacking marinated beef ribs, leaving behind large piles of bones. The... More »
Everyone has a restaurant that they don't get to go to as often as they'd like--because it's out of the way, because their loved ones don't love it as much as they do, because life gets busy. King's Fine is our number-one restaurant that we wish, wish, wish we got to more. The $9.95 buffet (served Tuesday through Friday from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.) is one of the best lunches in town, stuffed with sushi rolls, bulgogi, an ever-changing array of meat and fish entrees, and side dishes...

King's Fine Korean Cuisine is two great restaurants in one. It's your hometown joint where everybody knows your name--if your name happens to be "Park" or "Kim." Alternatively, for those of us with names more like Olsen, it's the place where you can order by number, or throw yourself under the tutelage of the kind waitress, who will walk you patiently through the bulgogi (sweet and tender marinated beef), dolsot bi bim bap (rice, marinated veggies, meat, and a fried egg served in a hot...

This unassuming restaurant nestled within a bland row of strip-mall shops in Fridley offers up enough culinary adventure to make you wonder what other delicious surprises you may be missing while searching for more glamorous surroundings. King's has a varied menu, including Chinese and Japanese items, but Korean cuisine is the reason to park your butt in a booth here, with a cold beer and, for starters, the wondrous seafood pancake, a little miracle of an omelet composed of scallions,...

Keep it a secret, but we are developing an almost cultish faith in the powers of King's soups to destroy colds: The pork kim chee soup is hearty, spicy, and cuts through a winter head cold like a sword through butter; the soybean hot pot with vegetables sets any sniffly soul quickly on the road to recovery. There are a lot of reasons to love King's: the springtime-fresh seafood pancake, the barbecue glory of the pork gal bi, the nutty light show that accompanies the late-night Korean... More »
If you're living a life bereft of King's seafood-scallion pancake (a springy omelet stuffed with sweet squid and tender green onions), we don't know that we'd call that living. And what about that spicy, nutty pork bul go gi! Oooh, that's really living. Not only does King's have some of the tastiest tabletop treats in the Twin Cities, King's offers some of the most amusing times to be had here. Those moments usually kick in after 9:00 p.m., when the house lights go down and the pink lights... More »
King's Fine Korean Cuisine 1051 E. Moore Lake Rd., Fridley 763.571.7256 Do you have any idea how disturbing it is to clear out the voicemail on a Monday morning lately? Imagine: a lovely, lovely Monday morning, snow flurries gusting through... More »
