Seoul meets Tokyo in this cozy neighborhood spot across from the Detroit Institute of Arts. Order from the sushi/sashimi selections or from a full Korean-Japanese menu that includes many favorite dishes from both nations.

Located inside New Seoul Plaza, a complex with a trio of Korean restaurants, Daebak Korean BBQ is a great place for group gatherings. All platters (pork belly, pork jowl, beef ribeye, chicken, tofu) are served raw and meant to be cooked by patrons on the grills built into the dining tables. Finish things off with soju, an Asian beer, or maekgeolli.

Pop into Myomee for a bubble tea or mid-day or after-dinner bingsu, a popular Korean shaved ice dessert popular in South Korean cafes. Myomee’s version uses a thinly shaved frozen milk and sugar base (instead of ground ice), which results in a snowlike consistency.

Hola! Seoul fuses the flavors of Korea, Mexico, and the United States in a fast-food (but delicious) menu that includes kimchi BBQ tacos, bibimbap, Korean fried chicken, and kimchi fries made for sharing.

Start with a beef hot stone bowl, popular among customers at this Korean-Chinese institution. The menu is long, with a solid selection of bibimbap, fried rice, and fish and chicken entrees. No choice is a bad one here, and the hospitality is top-notch, too.

Around for more than a decade, Chung Ki Wa’s claim to fame is its Korean barbecue. The squid salad, kimchi jjigae, and jjajyangmyeon (black bean noodles) also are tasty. Portions are generous, so take friends, or depart with leftovers that will last a few days.

Step into the Korea Palace (one of the region’s stalwarts) to be treated like a king or queen. Service here is fast and friendly. The menu here is long, and everything is homemade. Korea Palace classic standouts include bo ssam (steamed pork belly meat with kimchi and oysters on the side) and kalbi jim (prime beef ribs simmered in honey soy sauce). Prix-fixe meals are available.

Tofu bibimbap, popcorn chicken, and bulgogi tacos are the stars at this fast-casual restaurant, which opened in February. The chicken is double-fried and comes with a choice of Korean sassy, soy garlic, or half-and-half sauce.
