    Great service. Very attentive. Food was exceptional. Unfortunately, a bit expensive to take out a family of 4 regularly. Would definitely recommend.

    We were really looking forward to our first visit to Kore in Sarasota. We had high expectations, having recently dined at Cote in Miami. They did not disappoint. In fact, they exceeded our expectations on every level.. five star attentive service, great atmosphere, and the most important of all.. the food.. truly fantastic. We ordered a few appetizers and The Nice to Meet U combination.. the combinations are the way to go for sure.. dont miss the Korean Fried Chicken..(KFC!), everything was so good. their wine selection is excellent, and we had no issue pairing wines with the flavors. I highly recommend KORE, and we will be back as soon as possible.

    We came to celebrate an anniversary and treat ourselves to the Chef's Tasting Experience. We were very happy we did! The manager greeted us warmly and treated us to a round of drinks. (We don't drink alcohol, but their "mocktails" were great - creative blends and suitable for sipping.) Chris, our griller and guide for the adventure, was an obvious foodie who enjoyed explaining the fare and preparing the meats at the table. We appreciated his care and attention. We counted 10 (not 8) small courses including 4 different kinds of select meat, grilled seabass, Kobe beef tartare with caviar, baby greens with poached shrimp, a chef's surprise, soup and a delicious tropical sorbet to top it off. The portions are small, but this is about sampling the variety and experiencing the delicacy. It was way more than a meal - it was the kind of shared experience that make for a special memory.

    We had reservations for a birthday party and the experience was amazing! Chris was our server and met every expectation as we had never dined at a Korean restaurant before. He made great recommendations for cocktails, apps and even the main course! Everything was spot on! He was so sweet and brought out complimentary Prosecco and ice cream for my boyfriend’s birthday! We will be back as everything we had was very tasty and more than enough food for the two of us.

    Aesthetically ALLURING! Comfortable luxury from the wall color, dazzling modern lighting and rad graceful table cutlery. Servers are delightful. If you desire low key intimate table dining you got it. If you wish for lively conversation you can have that too. Ample high top booth seating is perfect for both. The food is DELECTABLE! The quality of ingredients & the skillful preparation of each dish is evident and scrumptious. Kore is amazing.

    The food was fresh, anasofia was so sweet only bummer was that it was not kid friendly, no highchair made for an uncomfortable dinner with a baby on my lap, they don’t have a kids menu either but we made it work with chicken breast and rice.

    I thought the food was orgasmic! The decor was very nice, staff very friendly and helpful. We had the Wagyu beef from Japan that was just out of this world! Salmon tartar and Korean beef tartar was so fresh and flavorful and very nicely presented. Everything was "A one". We will definitely be going back there!

    Our server Amanda was amazing. Very attentive, and had great knowledge of the menu items. It was until after we paid when she apologized for slacking as she was NEW. Amanda did not slack in any way. We would have never know she was new if she didn’t not tell us. We will 100% be going back to KORE…

    I had an absolutely amazing experience at this Korean BBQ restaurant! The food was outstanding, with a wide variety of high-quality meats and delicious marinades to choose from. The staff were attentive and helped us navigate the grill, ensuring everything was cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was lively and perfect for a fun night out with friends. I can't wait to return for another mouthwatering BBQ feast. Definitely a 5-star dining experience!
