Seoul Soul BBQ

What to do on a Sunday for lunch? We haven't had Korean BBQ for a while so we decided to venture into new territory and go to LA Korea town. Most restaurants I like to order the top tier. We went for the $60 AYCE. I normally can kill it, but I have been trying to lose some weight. We orderedSeoul soul short rib steakBeef short rib Galbi1 bibim neng myunMy only criticism is that the cold noodle didn't taste like what we received. The guy making it likely got too creative. The sauce wasn't even red. A goodnmeasure is to try a frozen Hmart noodle and duplicate the taste of the vinegar and the spicy sauce. That is what most Koreans are accustomed to eating.All in all I liked the meat quality and would definitely come back.

Came here for lunch from seeing someone recommend this place on Instagram and was amazed at the number of items offered on their menu. Lunch set A was $24.99 and B was $26.99. Option A has 16 items and Option B had 20 items. We opt for Option B due to it having corn cheese, beef rib meat and pork ribs and only being $2 more. Their dinner menu was available as well with more options but we decided to go with lunch menu instead. There were a couple tables there but service was still quick and we didn't have to wait on a Thursday afternoon. It was raining as well so most people probably did not want to go out. They have a parking lot as well so parking was not an issue. Not sure if they charge for parking at night since it's ktown. Overall the meat quality was decent. The brisket was on the leaner side so it was a little dry if you over cooked it. Of the 3 different briskets my friend and I thought the spicy brisket was the best as it had a lot of flavor and helped keep the meat moist. The beef rib meat was good too. Very flavorful and tender. The pork ribs took a while to cook but it still remained juicy. Our server came over to us a couple times to help us cut our meat and asked if we wanted to order more dishes. The sides/banchan were good, pretty standard. Corn cheese was very buttery and had a nice cheese pull. Pancake was just veggies but was very crispy. My friend wished it had a dipping sauce to accompany it. Overall service and food was great and parking was easy. They even have the soju frog in front to take pictures with. My friend thought it was very asthetic.

When I'm out dining by myself I'm not tryna break the bank, and this spot comes in clutch with their $25.99 weekday lunch special, and it's AYCE, so girl, you know I'm gonna be busting a MISSION to hit that daily protein intake. XDIf you're health-conscious like me, their meats are not fatty cuts at all, even the brisket, which a lot of other KBBQ places cheap out on.The ribeye and veggie pancakes are my favorite things to order, and this was my first time seeing lamb steak at Korean BBQ! Paired with the cajun dry seasoning and I was in heaven.Thanks for reading! ^-^

Great kbbq place and the people here are very helpful and super attentive to getting your orders and assisting with the cooking. Seriously sometimes they come out of nowhere lol great quality meats and the side dishes were well made. We got lucky with parking because we came during superbowl but I imagine parking is awful normally but that's just par for the course for ktown so it's not exactly a surprise.

Came to LA today for some business near Korean Town. Which is about an hour and a half away from where I live which at the time I was gonna be heading back traffic was gonna be terrible so I looked for some restaurants Near I was at and this restaurant came up and I was kinda in the mood for some Korean food and I wasn't alone. I had some family members with me so we picked this restaurant. We got a table right away, which is cool cause we were in no hurry once again in traffic was going to be terrible on the way back so we ordered from the first part of the menu which was around $43 and it was five of us. We ordered the bulgogi and pork belly and some potstickers they will cook the food for you or you can do it sometimes it's confusing because when you start picking up the tongs, then they run over and start doing the turning and stuff so you might have to tell them I'll cook it cause they burnt our pork belly other than that this place is pretty cool i'm pretty sure they get busy. We went on a Tuesday, but I'm sure by the end of the week they get the rocket. The ambience is nice not too intimate. It's a good place for a date night. I will come back again. I just think I have to be more straightforward next time. I would like to try other things on the menu. The next time I come back they're a little expensive.

We were on the search for a good Korean barbecue spot with good parking and I am thankful to Yelp for sending me here. Everything about this place was incredible not exaggerating the food was so good as well as the sides. My daughter finished the pasta salad within 10 minutes of sitting down. Service was great! The staff checked in on us often and were very attentive. Our server even helped us cut up the meat which was so sweet of him. We really enjoyed this place and we'll be coming back when we are in the area again.

The food is the bomb!! The option A is plenty for what is is but if you are feeling fancy or want to go all out then choose the other options. The service is good but at times they forget things and even sometimes feel rushed by chopping our meat up into smaller pieces and raising the heat up on the grill. This isn't any issue but it is kind of funny and doesn't change anything about being here. The atmosphere of the place is darker themed with dimmer lights and tvs with sports already selected on them. Overall this place is good

Went here Sunday at around 6pm, waited 35 minutes but it's worth it. The reason we waited is I felt too cold on the table that they reserved for us so we have to wait another 15 minutes. There are so many choices for the meat. The Korean side dishes are very good. Bbq meats are very delicious , it's worth our money. It can be busy. I would definitely will come back here.

Short wait for a big group. Yummy & fresh meats. Honestly we come back for the corn cheese, beef tongue & large intestines (all offered in the lowest tier which is a clear winner compared to other kbbqs). Service is usually fine but the affordability & quality of meat makes it worth returning for.

One of me and my wife's favorite biweekly grub out! Food has been so delicious, I have not had any issues since I have been coming here. One of the places I highly recommend The service has always been amazing. The Sontag is so organized and attentive.
