What User likes about Kim's Korean BBQ House:
A lovely little restaurant. Very inviting and food was excellent. Good point by previous reviewer that there is lots of parking around back of the restaurant. When driving up to the restaurant it appears there are only a couple of spots. Nope, head to the back. The only downside is that the BBQ is not available to cook your food at the table as it is in at least one Victoria restaurant that I am aware of. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Kim's Korean BBQ House:
Stopped by for a late lunch. The food is good, but there isn't much of a BBQ menu. None of the table has the typical grill you see in a Korean BBQ restaurant. And the menu only has cooked dish instead of self grilling style. The appetizer dishes are far few than other places I have been to. The staff is nice. But it is not the self helping BBQ place you would have expected. View all feedback.

Kim's is our go-to restaurant for Korean food in Nanaimo and area. We've visited a number of times and have always had an excellent meal with great service.

Kim's is a charming Korean restaurant in Nanaimo that offers authentic and delicious food. While lacking a traditional Korean BBQ menu, the cooked dishes are flavorful and plentiful. The staff is friendly and attentive, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant itself is modern and clean, a pleasant surprise for some diners. With excellent dishes like spicy pork belly and bulgogi soup, as well as great prices and attentive service, Kim's is a standout Korean restaurant on Vancouver Island, highly recommended by satisfied patrons.
