Seoul Garden Restaurant

My niece was visiting & the one thing she wanted was K-BBQ! Since my last visit to my usual place was dismal, I checked on Yelp & realized I have been to Seoul Garden with my mother's acupuncture doctor & had enjoyed the food.We were immediately greeted & shown to a table. Everything on the menu looked awesome! We ordered our food & feeling lazy, had the kitchen cook for us instead of grilling at the table. The seafood pancake, salad & sides hit the table pretty quickly. Best K-pancake I've had to date, really tasty & the salad was made with fresh ingredients w plenty of cucumbers & carrots. Loved the salad dressing. The sides were also delicious! The cooked meat & squid hit the table & we dug in. Everything was very delicious and everything had a nice kick to it. Even though we didn't cook at the tale, we left smelling like we did :)I think this will be my new go-to place for K-BBQ.

I have been coming here for years and find the food consistently delicious. The service was great and the staff were extra kind to our kids. The bulgogi and pork belly were cooked well and tasted amazing with the dipping sauce and lettuce salad they provided. Some of the other dishes I enjoy from here are the soondubu jjigae, dolsot bibimbap and kimchi pajeon. I love the ambiance and the water feature at the entrance.

This restaurant is super spacious on the inside and even has a wedding hall. However the food is alright at best, though service is quick and attentive. I ordered the dumpling rice cake soup which was actually pretty good, however the dumplings would fall apart when I would try to grasp them with my chopsticks. My friends and I shared a seafood pancake which was very mediocre. It was not crispy and there was little to no seafood in it. We also ordered some pork belly to share which we had them grill in the kitchen for us (so that we wouldn't leave smelling like meat). The meat came out lukewarm to cold and was so fatty it left a greasy feeling in our mouths--we should have just grilled it ourselves. My friend got the mul naengmyeon and it lacked flavor even after adding mustard to it. My other friend got japchae which was actually very good. It had a nice smoky flavor and was very flavorful. Not sure if we will be returning.

Seoul Garden has established itself as a haven for Korean cuisine enthusiasts and I cannot believe I have not written any reviews for this place yet. Oh the crime!!!The water wheel decor on top of an artificial indoor pond will charm any guests stepping foot into the restaurant. And I assume the bridge acts as a bridge to Korea through this restaurant? Lol idek.Anyhow, to the main point of this review, the food is AMAZING! You can request for actual Korean BBQ where you cook at the table with your parties or the restaurant can do it for you in the back (which takes away the fun but very ideal for small children/disabled people). We've had their la-galbi, bulgogi, galbisal gui, shrimp gui, and beef tongue gui time and time over and we're still obsessed with how flavorful they are every visit! Their appetizers, specifically takoyaki and gunmandu, are also very tasty.The accompanying plain white rice at Seoul Garden deserves special mention for its exceptional taste and texture. I'll be honest, I'm Asian, and I was blown away by their freaking plain white rice?! I even had to ask for the type of rice that they used or if there were any special methods involved in cooking because I've never had plain rice that was so fluffy and fragrant.Through our conversations with the servers, we also learned that all the side dishes are made in-house, which is insane (!!!) because there were probably 8-10 side dishes and they're super generous with the portions AND refills. Needless to say, Seoul Garden has been our fave Korean BBQ restaurant and will (hopefully) stay this way. Please don't ever change!!!

I love all of the ajummas here. That's the wonderful ambience this place offers. It's not fancy, though it is nicely decorated with a water wheel and other features. Because of the staff, this place feels more like an extension of your living room. We don't normally eat K-BBQ at restaurants because we prefer to do that at home, most times outside, sitting on the floor, with banchan galore. What do we get?Haemul Pajeon - love the seafood pancake here, served with what I affectionately call "crack sauce". The seafood to pancake ratio is just right IMHO, because you don't want the seafood to dominate since the crispy pancake is just as much of a player in this show. Bibimbap - whether you choose the regular bibimbap, dolsot (stone bowl), or any of the other varieties, they are all delish. We know, we have tried them all. Galbi Tang - the soup with beef bones is spectacular. It's the sort that leaves your lips sticky after you finish, a sign that someone took care to get all the essence and collagen out from the bones and into the elixir. Soondubu Jjegae - the spicy soft tofu stew, accompanied by rice, is one of my favorite "I'm not 100% today and need warm comfort" type of meals, especially if the cause of the sub-100% is due to a hangover (don't judge). Each spoonful is a little caress on your head and a voice whispering "aigoo, you ok, you ok". Grilled Mackerel - you gotta be a fish lover and good with eating off the bone. If you are, get THIS. Mackerel is a wonderfully flavorful dish due to the higher oil content (read 'really tasty Omega 3'). This is a dish I love getting when I can take my time for a meal, picking at and savoring each morsel of meat and chatting up with my wife or a good friend. There are many more dishes we like, but these are common in the rotation. Btw, I'm not knocking the BBQ here. We have had it and it's yummers. We just like doing it up at home with a lineup of soju (I told you not to judge me ). Stop by, say hello and be bond to the ajummas, enjoy your meal, and thank me later.

My family of 3 came here the other day. We had a very good experience. Everyone loved the food including my 2 year old boy. The ajuma serving our table was attentive and nice from the beginning to the end. We live far away but drive here for Korean food craving.

One of the OG Korean restaurants in Spring Branch along Long Point. You'll find it's one of several Korean restaurants in the area! Expect authentic Korean comfort food. I recently returned and was delighted to fill my belly with all the delicious sides, noodles, meats, stew and steamed egg dishes. The service is quick. I gladly let the kitchen staff to cook the meats in their kitchen instead of grilling it myself this time. The galbi and sliced pork belly were my favorite grilled meats. My kid devoured the black bean noodles, or jjajangmyeon; it was a nice balance of savory and sweet. Everyone loved the steamed egg, which came out fluffy and piping hot. Loved how generous they were with the green onion. I would love to find out how they make the salad dressing, because it's so good!

The food was excellent and the service was superb. We were in town celebrating my brother moving to Houston and his first day at his new job.

What did the government minister in Seoul say? "I never wanted to be known as a Korea politician."What to order: Yuk Gae Jang (beef soup).If you, like me, refer to your underwear as your "Garden", then you know that there are many restaurants out there that will leave you with a "Soiled Garden." This is not one of them.On Long Point, you'll find this absolutely delicious Korean food from this little restaurant on the north side of the street. The service isn't always great, but it's not bad, and we definitely like the soup here. We do want them to crank up the spice several levels next time we come though. But we love Korean food, and this is one of the better places to get it in Houston.Now if you've been to Busch Gardens or Madison Square Garden or the Garden State Plaza in Paramus, NJ, then you know that there are many gardens, and some of them are not altogether pleasant. But there is only one garden that serves utterly spectacular Korean food. Indeed, this is the "Sole Garden" where you will find food this delicious. And when Barbi poses here without shoes, it really is "Sole Garden."Regardless, you must give SG a try. It is a really lovely restaurant with really nice decor. We love coming here, particularly as they have good Korean soups for a very affordable price. They can be a friendly bunch, and the soups in particular, as I said, are definitely worth coming in and trying."Solo Garden" might sound like the title of a home-made video of what you might do when it's nice outside, and you have high fences around your yard, and you really need some erotic release as well as some fresh air at the same time. However in this case, it has nothing to do with that, and I've specifically graphically asked the owners, and they assure me it has nothing to do with that.There's lots of great Korean food along Long Point Road, and I wish they could make it a little more spicy, the way we like it. Because that's the way, aha, aha, we like it, aha, aha.Thanks for reading my review. I shall now start my new life with dogs and cats (already got the cats) and a family and a white picket fence. I can already imagine looking for a kindergarten for my kids. Actually I think there is only one around here that I would trust to look after my kids. It is the "Sole (Kinder) garten" that I trust. Ba. Dum. Tsh.

My cousin made reservation and we accidentally went across the street to the location with a similar name. Don't do what we do. Must come here. Shhh hahaha. Seoul Garden was awesome. We are visiting and got here. Tons of parking in front. When you walk it, it's huge inside. There's smaller rooms and tables to the left and throughout the restaurant. Our cousins were at the right restaurant so were already seated. We came in, ordered and the rest was amazing. Great service and the waitresses not only take our orders, they also cook for us and cut the larger pieces to smaller ones for us to enjoy. I'm in heaven. I ordered a few rounds of my fav side items and they refilled it with no issues. Meats were so good and fresh. Our whole table enjoyed the dinner very much. It's not AYCE but the meats were premium grade and sides were plentiful, we were full and not overly stuffed. Left happy. And I didn't smell like meat when I left. Win win right there.
