| - Came here Friday night around 8:30 with my boyfriend and a friend. Overall, we had a fun time, and I would go back. Some pros and cons:
Pros:
-Their banchan ( = assortment of Korean-style side dishes, mostly cold, pickled, and featuring hot pepper paste, kimchi being the most famous of the bunch) is a MUST. Lots of great flavors and textures. The pickled daikon was yummy. Plus, banchan really makes you feel like you're eating in a Korean restaurant, even if the other food you order isn't Korean in origin.
-The ddeokbokki (fish and rice cakes cooked in a spicy-sweet sauce; very typical Korean street food) is well done, plus the hard-boiled egg is a nice touch.
-The chili-braised eggplant is not overly spicy, and has good texture.
Cons:
-There are two entrances, though one leads to the host's stand, and the other has you walking awkwardly through the restaurant...I vote lock the latter entrance and post a sign telling people where to go. NBD, but it's an off-putting first impression.
-Sujeo is overpriced. Not monstrously so, but it is. For example, the lechon kawali (fried pork belly with a cherry tomato-onion salad), while pretty tasty, is appetizer-sized and is $12!
