- Clement ChiangDecember 12, 2014Hands down the best is the sirloin steak. We had the combo A, the best thing is the meat is really fresh and tender. Worth every dime toyboy here. Rare beef salad is very good too.Upvote4Downvote
- Jonathan L.February 16, 2018Came all the the way from NYC to try this place and it lived up to the hype from friends back on the East Coast. Even if you just try the Galbi, it's 100% worth it.UpvoteDownvote
- Kevork KazanjianOctober 27, 2014Delicious food, absolutely a must for good kalbi and kimchi. Wrap your meat in the sliced raffish, it's bomb. It is not all you can eat and they don't take Amex like foursquare says.UpvoteDownvote
- Yoni ZloczewskiDecember 9, 2019Where they excel is in all the Banchan. Really thoughtfully prepared and flavorful. The Service is also top rate. The Kalbi was well marinated.UpvoteDownvote
- Jen LinJuly 14, 2013Really really good KBBQ! Side dishes were all super yummy. I'm not a kimchee fan, but hubby and sister are and they say it was the best they've after had.UpvoteDownvote
- Long wait. Hands down best KBBQ in LA. Order the signature Soowon Galbi. For the daring, the yuk he (raw beef) is great as well. Go with a Korean, if you are not Korean for better service.UpvoteDownvote
- I love their namesake cut, and the white and light green seaweed sides! Tried the seafood pancake for the first time tonight, dining partner loved it, I did not.Upvote1Downvote
