Kang Seo

This place ended up being our second choice, as the restaurant we initially planned to visit was undergoing renovations on that scorching summer day. Adapting to the situation, we decided to try their marinated goat meat hot pot (보양전골), which turned out to be quite satisfactory. The hot pot came brimming with an ample amount of goat meat, including the goat skin. However, the dipping sauce for the meat was a tad overly sweet, and the selection of fresh vegetables was somewhat limited. The presentation of the hot pot was average, neither exceptional nor disappointing.On the service front, we received good attention. The waitress visited our table a few times to replenish our side dishes. Familiar with the culinary traditions, we took the liberty to transform the remaining goat meat into a rice-based porridge after enjoying the meat itself.The restaurant was bustling, situated between the peak hours of lunch and dinner. It's evident that the establishment has garnered a reputation and seems to have established a stable presence in the dining scene.

Kang Seo is located in a big strip mall full of Korean shops in Lawrenceville / Suwanee border. This review is based on my late afternoon weekday seollngtang lunch. +. Ambiance is a small comfy diner vibe. +. Food is traditional Korean and I came here for their seollngtang as my favorite place on BuHi closed during Covid. My soup came out after about 10-15 minutes with several side dishes and rice. They keep sea-salt and pepper on the table, so they don't bring them out with the soup. Protein wise, the bowl had a reasonable amount. It wasn't the richest broth but I seasoned seollngtang to my liking and enjoyed the meal. + Price is average. + Service was prompt and friendly. Typical ajumeonis who mostly speak Korean. + Parking is shared lots, ample and free. Over all, Kang Seo is a nice Korean traditional with a decent bowl of sellongtang. But with KS being 1+ hour away, I'm still in search of a go-to sellongtang resto closer to me. MY RATINGS- - - Inhumane- - Disgusted- Don't bother= Missed the Mark+ Good++ Better+++ EDIBLE...WHERE have you been all my LiFe!

We LOVE this place! It's one of the best restaurants we've ever been to. The restaurant itself is a small, local place with amazing service. Everyone is so friendly, they answered any questions that we had and helped us pick up what we wanted.The flavors were bold, which is exactly what you'd want for this type of cuisine. Everyone's food was just beyond good and even our friends who were with us (who are on the pickier side) loved it and wanted to come back again!

The food was good :) we got seolleongtang and dwaji bulgogi. The Banchan was very good as well. Servers were very nice; even though they don't speak much English, we were still able to communicate just fine. We went on a Sunday afternoon and there were not a lot of people inside. The food came out very quickly. All around good and filling.

Great food and great service.Came in on a Friday around 7pm, seated right away and it was busy! Food came out with in 15 minutes of ordering and the Kimchi soup was the best Kimchi soup I have ever had. My friend did order another soup, but it was more blandPortions are just a little but smaller for us.I ordered the kimchi jjigae + seodae gui and that was a steal! Fish and soup for a great price compared to other places I was looking itWe did order 2 extra rice to share with 3 of usI would come back!!

The waitresses were very sweet and attentive. The atmosphere is cozy and the dividers in the booths offer a slightly more private experience. I loved the stews with my favorite being the soy bean paste. I asked for spicy and it was the perfect level of spice. The pork was a little oily at the bottom and there were really charred almost black pieces under it all. As for taste it paired well with the pickled side dishes. The stone pot bibimbap was good especially with the crisp rice at the bottom. I was also disappointed to see that they didn't offer soft tofu soup (soondubu jigae). All the food was great just a little more on the pricey side for what you get. Overall I would definitely come back for a stew craving!

If you're looking for a good Korean restaurant that has a little bit of everything, this is the place! The food is consistently great! The service can be a little slow when they are super busy on evenings and weekends but worth waiting!!

Saturday evening busy on tables, waiting time about 20 minutes. I choose 2 people hot pot with beef and octopus to enjoy surf n turf both flavor meal. Service was friendly, and quickly. It is including small side dishes usually it is typical in Korean restaurant. Also they serve you hot pot soup, cutting octopus legs to easy use chopsticks. on picture it also come with rice. We enjoyed this typical Korean hot pot with cold weather. We discovered this new place on yelp search, so we will be back to eat again. It is a satisfied meal.

Got the Yukkaejang (spicy beef and leek soup). The soup was savory and spicy, with egg, tender beef, leek, glass noodles, and other vegetables. It also came with a side of rice. Portions were average, but also pricy ($17). I loved the banchans- the bean sprouts, acorn jelly, and japchae were all yummy.A very simple, no frills kind of place. Service can be a little slow. From time of order to food was close to 25 minutes. The banchan also came at the same time as the food, which was not what I was used to. Make sure you leave ample time to come eat~

Very authentic Korean food! The staff are very sweet and quick. The vibes were so relaxed and comfortable.
