Serves the best Korea food in South Africa. Food is extraordinary and packs a big spicy punch. Definitely come here if you have a cold. Price is a bit on the high side but is certainly worth it.

Really great Korean food. Pictures of kalbi and soon tobu jigae (spicy tofu soup) and fried ice cream 10/10 and the employees were attentive and the owner happened to be there and he was so hospitable. I wish I found place earlier. The banchan (side dishes) were delicious and I appreciated that it came with the meal like it should! Clean and fresh place. Highly recommend.

I love this place. Every time I miss Korea I come to this place. I love it more in winter though coz of the soups and hot and spicy food. The staff and owners are super friendly and my kids feel free there. The food is AMAZING to say the least. Their prices are also cheaper than the other Korean restaurants in Cape Town even though I think its a tad bit expensive for my pocket but the food is so worth every cent. My family and I are regulars. I give it 4.5 only because I think they should add ventilators or something coz sometimes it smells stuffy maybe because of the smoke from the Korean barbeque? Im not sure. But it definitely needs a bit of fresh air. Other than that I never have any complaints. Love it to bits!

Good place to try some authentic Korean food. Just very pricey so be prepared to spend a lot or leave the restaurant still hungry.

Great experience!The food was amazing and exactly what I wanted from a Korean place. Service could be improved but still not a problem.We started with some dumplings then moved to bibimpap all of it great. Finishing with the shaved ice we tried a few the red bean was by far the best option we had. I slightly over indulged 3 course meal for two at R700 is fine in my books

I went there today and it was absolutely fabulous! The food is absolutely delicious and tastes super authentic, more than any other Korean restaurant Ive been to. The restaurant has a really pretty and peaceful interior and you feel at home. They also give side dishes for free while you wait for your meal which is amazing; really yummy ones too. The music is totally awesome if you like kpop! All the staff are very friendly and check to make sure you are okay and enjoying yourself regularly and the overall experience is amazing! I am planning on visiting often!

Best Korean dining experience so far in Cape Town. Bulgogi soup was a treat and would like return to try so many other dishes. Our waiter was very nice and quick. The owner was also very friendly and came at the end of the meal to ask how everything was.Will definitely be back.

If I could give Seoul a higher rating I would! Everything from their service to the food to the environment warmed my heart. I was beyond happy to eat there! Theyre also deeply understanding, and when I informed the waiter (who was warm and completely awesome) that I only eat halaal food - they prepared my food seperately. It was beyond delicious, tasty, and I want to go back and try the rest of their menu. Id recommend Seoul to anyone and everyone.

The food was amazingggg especially the spicy rice cakes and bibimbap. I got so hungry looking at the food that I forgot to take a picture :( The prices are standard but it is definitely worth. The new owner is also super kind and the service is exceptional. I definitely recommend you to try the shaved ice desserts as well, they are delicious as well. And to try the Korean tea as it goes well with all the spicy food. I’ll definitely be coming back and take food pics next time ! This place is so underrated !

Review №17

Always a fantastic assortment of Korean food with a huge number of Korean guests coming through... Food is super but can be rather on the spicy side leading to the consumption of half cape towns water in a single sitting.The cost is arguably a little on the high side but it is still a great experience and Id definitely recommend visiting Seoul

Food was great, service was good for such a massive party. We sat at the back and did karaoke as part of a 30th birthday. So much fun. Book this place for a birthday or function. It is so much fun.

Review №25

Ive read a few reviews and our experience may have just been a uniquely bad one. The kimchi and spicy tofu soup was very watered down - tasted watery. Our pancake, a small side plate size, was undercooked. I asked the waiter if the portions were share size and he assured me they were. But they were all small side portions - not at all the way I remember from Korea. I had hoped to impress my party of 5 with how wonderful Korean food is, but everyone left quite disappointed.

We tried the Korean Barbecue, and it was exactly as it should be. It’s really not often that I’m close to give up, but the amount of food they served was massive. My stomach was happy 🤗

Memorable food with a healthy variety. As vegetarians, we had a few solid options. The food seemed quite authentic and the menu was translated well. Seoul Restaurant just missed something that made me want to go back.

An authentic Korean experience with a vast menu. Theyve recently grills to the tables but youll need to book as they are limited. They are a little more affordable when compared to the other Korean restaurants in Cape Town.

The food was good (I have only eaten there once). The one main dish was very delicious the other one was just ok (compared to the same ones I had in Korea). I was just a little disappointed that no one greeted us in Korean when we entered.

Weeeeell seeing that I was in Korea previously I was expecting better. Their bulgogi was sooo water down it took the taste away. Ill rather make my own bulgogi by visiting the store in Obs and get the sauce where I can at least make bulgogi 4 times

Better than average Korean restaurants in downtown Seoul Korea. Much better than all other Korean restaurants outside Korea.

Delicious Korean food on the menu, but also frozen dumplings that were served to me with a still-freezing cold center (ugh), leaves me giving an overall 3-star rating for this restaurant. There are better authentic Korean options in town.
