Rivers, ponds and lakes gleam under the warm Texas sun in Koreatown/Gribble. From strolls in the park to grabbing lunch in Koreatown—amidst the industrial landscape, the area combines several neighborhoods and districts, enveloped by manufacturing and next to the Dallas Love Field airport—providing both travel convenience and occasional noise. Offering access to Dallas' Medical District, home to the UT Southwestern Medical Center, Koreatown/Gribble becomes a cultural hub with Downtown Dallas at its doorstep. "Koreatown isn't a residential district; it's commercial," says Charlotte Case, a Realtor with Re/Max Town & Country. "The proximity to the airport and highways is a big draw; it's where people can not only live but get to work downtown."
Koreatown residents are always out and about walking at Trinity Skyline Trail.
Just south of Koreatown, find a plethora of local and chain restaurants.

Welcome to Koreatown
Entering Dallas' Koreatown, street signs in English and Korean above New Kirk, Royal Lane and Harry Hines Boulevard set the scene. Koreatown, evolving in the late '80s, houses barbers, boutiques, pharmacies and offices. The district comes alive with all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ, hot pot, late-night Karaoke spots and markets. Rabbits Bakery sweetens the deal with Korean pastries, sandos and boba tea. The festivities continue until 2 am at Soju 101 Karaoke, Bar & Korean Kitchen, where patrons revel in singing their favorite songs. "It's nice because there are so many parks, places to shop and to grab a bite," says Case. Komart Marketplace offers Asian food items, while Target, and Walmart are on Marsh Lane. The area is 6 miles from The Galleria Dallas, one of the city's busiest malls.
