The food is delicious and prepared in short time. You can get an excellent meal that tastes good and fills you up for less than $15, drink and all. The staff is very friendly. The location is hidden and nothing fantastic, but it's definitely worth it.

First of all.... the staff is very helpful and gracious. They help you through the menu, for those like me, a newbie to Korean food.
The food.... I am so thrilled to have found this place. The skillet of sizzling rice, vegetables, choice of toppings & fried egg.
Known as Bibim-Bowl *gop-dol!
Try the salmon, try the short ribs, trust me it's all great!
Everything about Mura is wonderful, I have a special place in my heart for it. The food is consistent and delicious, always fresh and made with great care. It’s a cozy, quiet, simple setting for lunch or dinner. I love the japchae and kimchi fried rice with pork belly!
It should be noted that there is only the one chef and the one host/server that work here, so they do occasionally have to close early, and if the restaurant is full the service may be slower. But to me it’s not a bother, I like getting to see the same people when I come in! I’m really thankful for this neighborhood gem.
Excellent service and food. The bimi bowl was awesome. The 3 kimchi appetizer is quite small and very delicious. The karaage chicken was confirmed good by my fiancée. Prices are very reasonable especially considering how delicious the food is.
Cozy, hole in the wall with healthy Japanese/Korean eats! For $17-20 you can get a full entree with salad, miso soup, pickled veggies, rice, and some kind of meat. I got the sukiyaki and it was delicious (I ate every single piece!) The restaurant only has a few tables and a warm atmosphere. It’s located on a small side street which does have parking. Also had some piano music playing in the background which was relaxing. Definitely will be back!
Great spot with delicious food. The small dining area is cozy, we enjoyed a leisurely meal. Would recommend that over take out.
I travel to seattle twice/month and I ALWAYS have dinner at Mura. It’s off the hook. Spicy fried seafood, bibimbop, kimchi pancake and jhapchae are my favorites here but you can’t go wrong. The staff are lovely, and the food is exquisite. Modest portions but of the highest quality. So don’t expect heaping plates but deeply satisfying.
I am glad that Mura, a Korean restaurant, is open again. Their food is authentic Korean and really good. Run and serviced by very pleasant and nice local Magnolians. I read on Nextdoor that the portions (takeout) are small but I don't agree. Unfortunately quite a lot of Americans like their food supersized and this translates to BMIs.
Tried Kimchi Jjigae and pork katsu. Both were tasty at mid price range.
First time in. Had the bibim bowl with bulgogi. I'm in love! Will be back with my wife.
Great Asian/Korean "fusion" (in parentheses as it was dominant rather than an influence influence) with very fresh ingredients, well prepared and in satisfying portions. Employees are helpful and friendly. Our food (dol sot bibimbap and salmon entree) arrived in sizzling cast iron skillets. We're from Oakland so we have a plethora of Korean restaurants and this one was good, we only wish they had banchan (small appetizers all Korean places serve with a meal).
This Magnolia gem is tucked in an alley behind the main strip of restaurants and shops. The staff was friendly and food was fresh and delicious, highly recommended if you're in the area!
