A very exciting experience at this authentic Korean restaurant run by Korean owners. There was so much to choose from. Bibimbap was great. The meat on the hot plate was really tender. The cold spicy noodles was different yet refreshing. Only recommendation I would say is to offer your customers more lettuce so we can pair it with the meat. What’s the point of having so much meat if we run out of lettuce in 10 bites.They did offer us complimentary fruit at the end. They are extremely friendly, kind and helpful.
What a little gem in Seapoint. Food was delicious..... crispy chicken and pork belly 👌🏼
Incredible place for authentic Korean food on Seapoint Main Rd, Cape Town. Its a family run restaurant, staff are friendly and attentive. The food is GREAT. We had the Mul-naeng-myeon (Buckwheat noodles, with sliced beef & egg in tasty sweet cold broth- perfect for a hot summers day) & Bi Bim Bap (Steak mince rice in a traditional heated stone pot that makes it crispy). 2nd time here and loved it as much as the 1st time. Dishes are well priced, and portions are very generous. We were also served complimentary fruit at the end.
너무 맛있어요! I had a lovely meal that I picked up to eat at home. It was well packaged and the owners were very friendly and helpful. Real authentic Korean food.
The best date spot for me an my wife surely will return soon....especially for Soju delicious.... Food... Yummy yummy.
You would expect some sort of Korean decor. Food was a bit pricey.
Food so delicious owner it nice like family restaurant
Best Korean restaurant in Cape Town by far!! I lived in South Korea for a year, and got used to their delicious food. The owners of this restaurant are authentic and even grow their own Korean vegetables! The BBQ pork dish is different from the grill version in Korea, but still very delicious. 😍😍 I recommend this Korean restaurant above all the other ones in Cape Town.
Awesome foodies
Such a wonderful experience! Delicious food and lovely service. Our waiter was more than happy to explain how the dishes are cooked and how to eat them. The owners were very friendly and made us feel so at home.
Excellent service. Excellent food. Only restaurant in South Africa that Ive been to that is proactive in offering plates for kids, every restaurant I had to request. Fruit are already sliced, the owner taught us how to eat the food. Very patient and friendly. Would recommend !!
The staff here are very friendly and welcoming. When they say go where locals go, this is one of them. Youll find the natives that enjoy these dishes served here, frequent this place often simply because the food is authentically tasty.
Although Ive never been to Korea you feel like youve stepped into a Korean Familys house for a meal . Its Lovely and small, you get that intimate feeling and the decor and lighting bring the sophistication and class. Its very welcoming and calm.
Excellent food, and warm atmosphere.
Owned by the Sweetest couple and the food was amazing - felt like I was in Seoul. Truly an experience. Would recommend
The owners and staff are very friendly and welcoming and a lot of their vegetable side dishes are home grown! The food is quite delicious too. The only drawback is that the portions are rather small for the price. Other than that the restaurant is quite lovely.
Definitely give it 5 stars on all accounts! The food was delicious and fresh, the staff was kind and taught us how to eat Korean food properly and prices were brilliant for what you get. I definitely recommend the tteokbokki and the gimbap!
Soju is a great restaurant food-wise. The decor is minimal on the walls and tables. You have to go there for the food.We had sizzling hot bowls of bibimbap and the owners mom came to our table and showed us how to mix everything together. It felt like my mom was teaching us :). The owner and his parents were very friendly. Our food was delicious and filling. This was our first time there. We will be back for the service and friendliness as much as the food.
Had you asked me if I knew anything about Korean food, prior to Saturday, I would have said Kimchi. I cannot pronounce what we ate but it was delicious and served with many small bowls of mysterious condiments. The wine and beer options were sparce but the service was warm and lovely and interesting and the complimentary melon, a perfect end. So glad to see the shared enthusiasm from our fellow patrons. We will definitely be back.
Ms. Lee and her family make amazing food. Period. We even spoke some Korean (she was very understanding and switched to English as soon as I could not continue in Korean anymore). For 30 minutes, I was transported back to Korea. Cant wait to go back! Food was a bit on the more expensive side, but for its authenticity, its so very worth it!
Nice food and helpful people, enjoyed every bite!
Came here for dinner and was very impressed. Kind and friendly staff, who accomodated well for the vegetarian diet. Our meals were lovely and the plethora of sides offered were all great accompaniments. Overall, would highly recommend for anyone in the Sea Point area!
A very quaint restaurant. Great and warm service from the owners. Food was super tasty and super fresh, portion sizes enough for four people to taste and enjoy.
Was the best first time experience, the welcoming was warming and they are so willing to help explain and show you how to eat the food! . Ill definitely go back, thank you
The staff is so cute and nice. The food is delicious ♥️
The first time I ever ate Korean food was here and I was not disappointed. They were helpful, kind and the food was great. The only thing I didnt like was the fact that Id continue to go there so many times after and they still cant remember my name.
Amazing food. Love it
Food was fantastic. So was the sojuHospitality friendly
Great restaurant with friendly people. If you like korean food or something different check it out.
Always good food, atmosphere and the owners are the loveliest people. Feels like home cooked meals!
A good place for Korean food owned by Koreans. The bibimbap is my favourite - a must try. Don’t expect excellent service, the food however more than makes up for it!
Love the bbq. Salad picked fresh from the garden.
This was one of the most delicious dinning experiences of my life, if you havent had kim chi ..you havent lived
Good service, awesome Korean experience. Would just love to barbeque or meat at the table ourselves like in south Korea.
Delicious food and very friendly and helpful owners.
Good solid Korean food served by lovely couple. Not the usual franchise type scenario so dont expect slick service. You get authentic mom and pop restaurant.
Incredible, authentic Korean food. Possibly one of my favourite places to eat. The owner, operators and ever present from the serving to the cooking to even stirring your egg into your bibimbap. (mothers hand is best) Dont be discouraged if the service is not what you expect. Seat yourself, find a menu and grab a beer out the fridge while you waitThis is less like dining at a restaurant and more like eating in someones living room. So come in relax and make yourself at home.
The food is amazing and the family that owns the place is lovely. Would highly recommend the so-bul-go-gi!
The hostess was extremely friendly. It was my first time there and my first time eating Korean food but it was a fantastic experience. The food was so delicious, and the Kdrama was so enthralling lol. I loved the intimate setting and cant wait to go again.
Cooking food by Korean family ...nice food... I like it.. But wanna spicy more 😛
Excellent authentic Korean food. Mom and pop owned restaurant, food freshly prepared and very tasty, highly recommend !
My first Korean cuisine experience!!!! 5/5 Friendly service. Went on a winters evening and it was warm and cosy!!
Without a doubt the best Korean restaurant in Cape Town. The adjumma serves up top notch authentic Korean cuisine. You cant wrong with the barbecue options and the bibimbap. You will need to order at least two barbecue dishes so bring your friends.
Nice place but I dont seem to enjoy Korean food as much as others
Lovely hosts. I recommend the jjajangmyeon, its very refreshing.
Sea food noodle soup, kimchi jjighe, yookghejang(spicy meat soup) not to be recommended. Others? Maybe next cpt trip.
Wonderful food, superb. And personal service
Authentic Korean food. Family run business. I love the indoor BBQ.
Wow wow amazing such lovely people family business. Food fresh and yummy and you must meet mommy she is amazing.
Best Korean restaurant in Cape Town. One of a few. Ot is family run and they are very friendly and welcoming
Best Korean culinary experience in Cape Town and surrounding...known them for over 11 years now
Great authentic korean dishes. bibimbap is amazing.
The owners were inviting and the food was delicious. They also play kpop if you want.
Very welcomy hostess, it gives a homey vibe like visiting your grand parents. Probably on the pricey side but worth trying.
Very expensive! For the quantity it is not worth it. A bowl of bibimbap can easily cost around R100 and its mostly rice anyway.
Very nice and amazing food
Delicious and authentic (a rarity in Cape Towns Asian restaurant scene) family-run Korean restaurant. Well worth a visit!
Friendly family run with authentic dishes. Try the bibimbap!
Fantastic food, atmosphere & owners. Authentic Korean food!
Amazing restaurant. Some the best food I had in my life
My favourite Asian Restaurant in Cape Town..! I super recommend the beef bbq, topoki and bim bim bap...! The owner also very friendly.
Amazing food and even better staff.Had a awesome night with friends
Excellent food - love the family vibe - best value for money in Cape Town
Awesome place, with very friendly people!
Had an amazing dinner last night. The family who owns the place was so funny and friendly, and the food was on point!
I love it, so authentic, even my Japanese friend loved it. we had the sojisoju, and the friend tofu - get the bbq meat, it ridiculously awesome. the bibimbap is better than in korea.
Love their dolshot bibimbap!
Delicious - coming back to try the omelette. Nom nom nom!
Great! Had the calamari and noodles.
