| - One of the first things that should be mentioned is that this place is not open until late afternoon. The pro to that? They are open LATE to accommodate this late night town. I believe their current hours are 4pm - 3am? Something similar.
With that said, I love Min Sok Chon! It's close to my house, easy access, good service about 90% of the time and great taste.
I usually order the spicy beef soup, and I have never been disappointed. A ton of flavor, spicy enough (not "Americanized" because I'm 1/2 white).
The atmosphere is calm, quiet and private. The booths are accommodating for small groups, and the music is usually well chosen.
The things that need some improvement: the dog visiting behind the counter, although one reviewer referred to it as "cute" which I do not argue, it's unsanitary to have it walking around in the kitchen and hanging over dishes when the food is being handled (if I didn't love the place so much, I would honestly have to report it- but I've only seen the dog once). Service can sometimes be slacking if there are more than 3 tables, especially if those tables have Koreans at them. Not to say there is preferential treatment, but the servers tend to spend more time talking and checking in on the Korean speaking tables.
Overall, I really do love this place and eat from their kitchen a couple times a month at minimum. Their beef soup is affordable and can last me for 3 meals, making it even more cost effective. The rest of the menu is comparatively priced for Korean food - and, they are the only place in Vegas (that I know of) that serves duk bok hi.
