Seoul

My husband and I really enjoyed this place tonight. It was our first time going. The owners were sweet and helpful. They have a good selection of Korean dishes. If you are new to Korean food, bibimbop or beef bulgogi , both are good introductions. We ate boodae jjigae (soldier stew and it's spicy). That stew hit the spot! The kimchi was good as well. The side dishes were pleasant to eat. I lived in Korea (near Daegu) for two years in 2008 to 2010 so it was nice to eat good food. I do wish Birmingham had more authentic Korean restaurants, this is the only one that I know of. Korean food can be pricey but it's good to go with multiple people to share dishes and the bill. This restaurant is small on the inside and it does have clean bathrooms. They will do carryout.

Yesterday my family found this restaurant for our lunch while we were traveling. However, I was shocked by the menu prices because their menus are priced almost twice more than usual. Their Hot Pot Bibimbap is $23 but it is usually priced from $10-15. It would be around $30 with taxes and tips. Other menus are also more expensive than usual. In fact, I ate Hot Pot Bibimbap in Niagara Falls, New York last week and the price was $13. I wouldn't spend over $200 for my whole family here. Birmingham is not like LA or New York where higher living expenses need. Also, no one greeted us when we entered the restaurant. I just needed to ask him (the server or owner) to get a table. What is happening with K-food?

The gentleman was nice,but the food is not a good example of Korean food. If this had been my first experience with Korean food, I'd never ,ever have bought it again! The side dishes were good,the tea watery, and the Bibimbap tasteless! Also the price for 4 people was $102.00!!!! Outrageous! At our local Korean Restaurant in Chattanooga TN,we could have gotten a tastier meal for $45.00, and with larger proportions! Maybe it is from a different area of Korea than the Korean food I eat at the the Chattanooga TN seoul Korean restaurant.And.we.were not given any ice cream for dessert as other people say they got.

The location is convenient to the interstate and just off green springs hwy. You can see the sign from the main road. It's a small restaurant. But, it is cozy and the decor is nice. The owner was super nice and he and the waiter explained what items were on the menu. The food was good. I really enjoyed the seasoning on the marinated chicken with dipping sauce. The rice was also good. They have a good selection of tea as well. Very helpful and friendly staff. I highly recommend!

Some of the best Korean food that I've ever had. The owner would answer any question that you had about anything on the menu. The wait staff was excellent.I read a few of you talking about the prices of the items on the menu. I would say the price is definitely worth what you get! I wish I lived closer so I could frequent this restaurant more often. It is kind of hidden in the strip mall. Don't let that scare you away.

Amazing food, wonderful customer service, and a great environment. This food has some of the best Korean food I have tried and the portions are huge! You get your meal, plus all the side dishes. And there are some great vegeterian and meat options. I will definitely be back here and highly recommend it!
