| - This place was incredible! I'm so glad to have something like this in Charlotte--it's bringing ethnicity, diversity, and fun to the city.
We ordered pork belly (with buns), kimbap (korean sushi), both types of wings, and the ram 'n mac (mac and cheese made with ramen noodles).
The wings were beautifully seasoned, and the spicy wings have a kim-chi-like sauce on them. They are mildly spicy. We really enjoyed the kim bap quite a bit--it was a new item on the menu, but there were several meat filing options to choose from. All very flavorful and tasty. The pork belly was EXTRA crispy. This was my only complaint because it was hard to taste the meaty part of it. Ram 'n mac was a fun, quirky twist on mac and cheese. There were pork rinds on top to make for some good texture.
The atmosphere of Seoul Food is casual, but fun. Food is served on trays and in cardboard servers. Everything is messy in the best way. Price-wise, my husband and I were able to eat for $22 total and we had PLENTY of food.
We also had a chance to speak to the owner, who showed us around the restaurant and all of the new karaoke rooms they have! They are beautifully themed/decorated. Their outdoor space is spacious, you can bring your dog, and they have jumbo-sized pool/billiards that you play with soccer balls! The owner told us that eventually they will be making an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ section.
We had a great time and look forward to going back. Such a great fusion of authentic Korean food and southern flavors.
