Reviews of Seoul Garden Korean Restaurant (Restaurant)

neth8tr .

Very authentic cuisine. Clean restaurant serving healthy food options or if you want to hog out they have all you can Korean bbq

Laurel Shea

So good! I recommend the bee bim bap in a stone bowl. Good service too.

Erin Allen

If you want real Korean BBQ, this is the place to go! The sides are always delicious and fresh, and they usually have something new overtime. The All you can eat is a great way to try a bunch of different things. The spicy rice cake soup and the soft tofu soup are fantastic, and make a great lunch. The staff is very nice and happy to answer any questions you have.

Margaret Wolf

Kinda dark and cold with air conditioning. But food was really tasty. Waiter did a nice job of educating us on the extensive and somewhat overwhelming menu. We will return!

Jae Watkins

I lived in Seoul for a year and a half.....this food is amazing and truly home cooked Korean food!

Candace Williams

The bi bim bab was very good. I'll be going back to try one of their soups because they are massively huge.

Stephen Kostos

Everything tasted great. The service was extremely fast, especially when considering how busy the placed stayed the entire time we were there. Everything was as authentic as one could hope. Very impressed, and will be back.

chief knox

Didn’t get the buffet, but it was so ok. Menu items are more expensive than they should be

Kyungwan Han

Wang Kalbi was excellent. Jjampong was surprisingly (not expected) delicious just like the one I used to have in Korea. Servers were kind and courteous. Great job !

Tony Lee

Currently at the place, and waiting to be served. Been here almost 20 minutes and no one comes to serve us a single drink!!!! They finally came and the guy name IGGY was so rude. We ordered AYCE Premium order. He brings out plates for us and throw them on the table like "here are the food s**kers". So darn Rude and unprofessional!!!!

Felipe Montero

Nice place and the food delicious

Aris Cortes

Good food

Shaniece Smith

The all you can eat barbecue is always on point but their other menu items are a hit or miss. I order soondubu(spicy tofu soup) one day and it was perfect. I ordered it a week later and it tasted like a bowl of water with tofu in it. I probably will stick with the bbq only.

Lizzie W.

Wonderful authentic food, outstanding service.

Alexis Carroll

Great flavors, plentiful portions, friendly service

Joe Gianino

Love it absolutely delicious

Jordan Droxford

whenever we get the chance to pass by, we just have to stop by. in our most recent trip, they have a meat platter. I said yes right away looking at the price. it was well worth it! the trio of grilled meat was cooked to perfection :) and since it was a trio meat latter, we were able to try other dishes instead of sticking to our usual favorite.

Anne Cejka

Soo good!!! My family, husband, and I love getting their bulgogi and kimchi. They also have a variety of food they give you to taste. Such a fun experience!

Zu Yuanhao

I surely love this place for it is one of the several ayce Korean bbq place you cloud go. Even though that they cook for you in st Ann and started to charge more for one guest. At the time it is still acceptable. But I went there today and told my waitress that I would like to have ayce, I expected that she would told me that they are charging extra for one guest ayce, but she told me that they don’t serve one guest ayce anymore. I’m so confused at the time since there is something in the menu that I cannot order not because I don’t have money but because I went there along. Just a reminder to all that they don’t serve you for ayce If you are there by yourself.

Jayme Campbell

Best Korean food in town. It is a little expensive but totally worth it. The servers are always friendly.

Detty Pierce

The foods is delicious but the waitress (Korean one) need more smile..

Maura Creates

Had a less than good experience from those in the past. The server only brought 4 side dishes for 2 people and when we asked for one other she was not very friendly. I had never seen this before in any Korean place and I have lived in Korea. I hope she was just having a bad day.

Christopher Rogers

The best wait staff! Great food!

Xauen Zirpolo

Great food, good prices, and the unlimited is a fantastic deal with lots of variety

Barry Swatman

Very good! Had the all you can eat and it was all awesome!

PurgetoryHound

Nice food. Not very nice service

kimberly paul

Nice place, you don’t cook your own meat at this location though, it was till good to have a lot of soups and Korean style meats.

John Browning

Great food and service is normally very good except they forget to come back and check on you to see if you need anything else.

Maren McGuire

The food here is amazing and authentic, the service is always on point unless you go near dinner sometimes, and that's only because they're packed. :) 100% recommended.

Excuse Me ?

The Short ribs were really good but the beef bone soup was ok but it was still a really good place to eat.

C Z

They do not provide self grilling service as of February 2018. In addition for the premium buffet option for $25.00 you only get 2 servings of LA beef( their best dish, the other meats are not as good) and 1 octopus and 1 shrimp per person. So if you're going to eat there for those options you might as well just order a la carte. TLDR If you want the korean BBQ grilling experience go somewhere else!

Ryan Gray

We did the Korea BBQ where you pick meat and cook it yourself and it was very good. I would highly recommend any of their 3 bulgolgi meats as they were my favorite. We also tried the pork neck and spicy chicken which were good as well. It's a little pricey but definitely worth a try!

李凌

So cold every time. I think That is for all you can eat. , Prevent you from eating too long .please bring your coat.

Bret Burbidge

Good food and service. It's fun to taste all the little bowls of goodness placed on the table!

Emily Amberger

Nice staff; I had the Stone Bowl Bee Bim Bap with spicy pork and it was amazing!

Bangone Sengsourya

It not that good. I won't go back.

yuva rai

We found another great Asian restaurant in St. Louis. Food was delicious. We ordered Kimchi pancake, Spicy Squid and Chicken Bulgogi. Besides our order we got so many different items. Everything was super delicious. We will come back again and I highly recommend.

David Burleyson

Absolutely wonderful! I just moved to the area from South County and my girlfriend and I found this place as we drove by it one day. We decided to stop in for dinner tonight. It was busy but we were immediately seated. We quickly received our beverages, I recommend the Hite, it's a Korean pale lager. After a few minutes of looking over the menu we we placed our orders. The food was excellent and arrived in a timely manner. We will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu. Great authentic Korean restaurant!

Ann Ngo

The food is really good. We were super full with All you can eat. The dinning room is very clean and Asian. However, the waitress was not friendly and kinda mad ( we supposed she was hungry lol) and we saw the plum wine's was $9 in the menu, but they charged us $12. After we asked about that, the waiter said it was changed, but they didn't update in the menu yet :/ overall, I hope the owner should take care the service better

Eric Zumwalt

Small place with limited seating inside. They have an option for Korean BBQ, where they bring you bowls of ingredients and you can cook it yourself at the table. This is a great way to try some new things and see what you may be missing!

Joey James

Authentic Korean food it tasted so good. The service was great. If you are looking for real Korean food, you will not be disappointed.

Derek Thomas

The pricing was great, the food was great, the service was a slow the bathrooms were gross. But seriously the food was amazing. I didn't go there for the restroom or service.

Chelle

The food and service is always amazing. If it wasn't so far away, I'd eat there every week.

Melissa Sullivan

Always delicious. I visit every time I’m in town.

Davon Brown

It is pricy but the food is amazing. It's worth every penny.

Gail Aquino

Great food. Spicy tofu soup was full of flavor! Should've bought some to bring home. Hot tea was nice also!

Nick Steidle

Great food, slow service, especially when they're busy. The prices are also a little steep, but the food... The food is so good, that even with a few glaring issues, this place is still barely not a five star restaurant. The free side dishes are amazing, the kimchi is great, the meat is fresh and incredibly well marinated. Honestly, this place could be a big room without furniture, and I would still go there at least once a month. I think that this is just one of those nice little niche places that cater to people that know what they want. I would recommend this place to anyone who likes Korean food in a heartbeat, but might be a little more hesitant to bring my grandmother or a picky child.

David Steiner

Best korean bbq this side of the Mississippi. Service and food is what keeps you coming back.

Brian Fredrickson

The place was awesome, great food

Eli Karabell

Great Koren BBQ Restaurant, I would highly recommend for all to visit & enjoy! - EBK l

Dejan Deh

The food and the experience were pretty good. However, their service lacked quite a bit, at least considering the price of the buffet. They were fairly inattentive and unconcerned. Expect to ask for everything, don't expect the servers to offer or remember. I also find it kind of dumb that they serve a small bowl of soup with an unlimited buffet. I prefer soup with my meal, and once you run out you are out of luck.

Lennon Ruthardt

Always nice to have a Korean place nearby. Especially when you need something different.

elesia lang

Unbelievably delicious. True authentic Korean. A bit pricey but so much food for your money.

Ryan Wernig

Good

Anthony Burns

New Favorite place for Korean not far from the Airport

Kayode ABitogun

Korean BBQ out this world

Nicholas Iffrig

Great family style meal. Be prepared to pay a lot for an entree but it should be enough to share for a few people. The "Unlimited Plus" Is awesome but you will pay $20 per person but I had to beg them to stop bringing meat to the table. :)

michelle blackford

Legit Korean food! Every single meal is delicious but the all you can eat is where it's at! New location just opened up!

Josh Farmer

Lots of delicious food, making this a definite must visit. Not getting the all you can eat is a crime. Staff couldbe friendlier though.

rosalind thompson

Excellent dinning. Totally different

Xiaodan Dai

Everytime I fly into STL I stopped by Seoul garden for some delicious Korean food. I haven't had the Korean barbecue but I have enjoyed all their soups. Service is really good. They are quick and attentive. Only thing I was bother by was that there was one time I went and during the whole time I was there, the owner was giving one of his employees a lecture about customer service ... I heard the whole conversation because he was so loud. Although I understand his job as the owner to do so...i didn't feel like it was the right time or location.

Blake Clark

So there are two restaurants one is Seoul Garden and the other is Seoul Garden Korean restaurant. The one in Olive St is the one you want to go to. The (Seoul Garden Korean restaurant) had bugs on the walls. My group has to run out.

Kathy W

LOVE! I LOVE THIS RESTAURANT! GO HERE, DON'T HESITATE. IT'S DELICIOUS.

Christopher Galli

I've been here several times and have enjoyed each meal. I went recently with a friend from Korea, who thought the food was good and authentic. The place always seems busy.

Pheise Zhuo

Very authentic Korean food... so yummy... cheap... nice place... 3 days in a row I ate here during my business trip at St. Louis. no regret.. You must try...

Thomas Faitz

Easy to find. I've been to Korea - know what it's like. This is pretty close to authentic. Banchan (little side dishes) to die for. Most main courses very good. If you've not eaten Korean - get the bulgogi. Friendly, courteous. (I was the only 'round-eye' in the place the last time I went. This is a good thing)

James Chappell

Good all you can eat Korean BBQ.

Angela Alvarado

We went to the Creve Coeur location tonight. Never having been there, we didn't know what to expect. We were promptly seated and given menus and water. As we began looking over the menu, my husband an I were excited to try ayce premium, but my daughter wanted something else, so we could't order what we wanted. The waiter was not very welcoming, and when I had questions, he was very brief and not very helpful. A few things I asked for were not availible, and the table cook tops were not working. It seemed like we were continually striking out. Finally we settled on the short ribs, which were delicious. We always like new places, and money is not a deciding factor. We are happy to pay for great food and service. For me, this visit just didn't cut it. Not only did we not get what we were hoping for, the service was poor. Not sure we will be back. At these rates, we expect much more.

Willie Robinson

Great food!!!

Amii Blackman

Fat waiter was VERY rude. He gave me the wrong food and got very hostile about it. It was $28.75 for one person, pretty pricey for what is received. NEVER GOING BACK.

Joe Stinger

Good but oddly strict about how you can order

Camber York

Food was good. Disappointed that you can no longer grill your own meat. Still a fun and delicious experience.

Alice Quiao

Don't come to this K'restaurant until they will make some changes. Here are the "CONS" 1) They will tell you waiting time is 20 minutes-- "liar" we waited an hour to wait for available table 2) Very inefficient -- when busy they should know how to deal with it--need more staffs to accommodate their clients -- take so long to refill glass of water/orders, staffs are wearing apron but don't have a straw/chopsticks inside the apron pockets-- 3) Refills takes forever--no wonder the customer stays longer cause they haven't eaten yet-- 4) There were tables --where customers stayed until closing time--they should have given them the receipt to pay cause they are no longer ordering--basically they are NOT generating money from that table--it could have been given to the ones in queue 5) NO one over see or oversight the customers table-- the guy in the check out area is useless a robot --he doesn't know his job---or how he could go beyond his job 6) The restaurant does not have a good working exhaust system-- YOU will smell when you go out from this restaurant-- 7) The $20 eat all you can is a joke--you don't get what they tell you. Reasons: they run out of it, takes so long to get refill/order, when you get closer to their closing time you won't get your next meat, we were served with a burnt steamy egg-- 8) The restaurant needs Sanitary check up-- 9) They need to provide better AC--it's so hot inside specially every table has a stove cooking the meat and when they burnt it it really smell inside-- 10) After all -- this restaurant has an authentic Korean dishes! They just need to improve their mechanics to generate more and serve more people--they need to observe other restaurants on how they handle customers in busy busy situation---I feel sorry for their burnt out staffs their faces like almost wanting to cry--- Maybe the management thinks they have saved by having few staffs that's a WRONG concept--- They really need some help to survive in this business cause they so have one huge advantage--- Best FOOD! They need to make sure their customers come in and being served FAST--- leave FAST and Satisfied--

Jacob Morie

Amazing food and service!

Megan Kirk

Super authentic and delicious Korean food! Can't wait to go back!

Donnie Doan

Absolutely bad service and don’t allow you to eat with your family because of the “all you can eat”. Doesn’t put your needs before theirs and they tell you they can’t cook anymore food for you because supposedly they have to shut down the kitchen. They also rudely and obnoxiously tell you you basically can’t eat because of the kitchen having to close down. I would recommend Asian Kitchen over this place because of the obnoxious waiters and bad service. I feel like you guys need better service and fill up your customers’ requests and needs because last night our family was working really hard, from 8:30 in the morning to 9:00 at night, that’s literally 12 hours and we deserve a good meal because of all our hard work.

Josef Latham

the staff is always very friendly. the food is fantastic and the menus are available in multiple languages. Authentic food on a decent price point. A strong recommendation.

Rob Kuehnel

Absolutely the best Korean Restaurant in STL. I know that not having table grills can be a bit of a let down. But having a big pile of goodness brought out to the table all cooked and ready to eat m and non-stop Korean goodness smashing!!!

osy

Good place to have a great dinner. I highly recommend this restaurant to have Korean food.

awkaga

Terrible place. The owner is super disrespectful. I ordered "all you can eat". Although they did not mention that there is a limit on their marinated rib steak they said I can get 2 orders of it maximum. I told them that I ordered the "all you can eat" because of the rib steak and for the previous visits I have received around 5 orders of it. The owner said that their place has been like this for many years and they said that I was lying. I requested to pay for what I have eaten since their menu was misrepresenting, in which point I have ordered 2 orders of marinated, but the owner started to curse me with names and called her son. I explained to him that their menu was misrepresenting and I am willing to pay for what I have eaten but her said that he does not care. It was just a terrible experience their customer service is below zero. I would give them zero star if there were that option. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE!!! There are many other much better Korean restaurants around the town with much better taste and customer service. Fraudulent place

C Carter

My wife order the fried rice, beef bulgogi and she loved it. The food is prepared fresh and served piping hot. If you have a taste for a Korean meal give them a try...

Magical Tech

This location no longer allows you to cook your own food at your table due to fire regulations. Food is now prepared and served on a hot, iron pan. Good food still though.

Andrew Schmidt

I like this place. It’s a fun experience for the family. The food is good and unique. My favorite are the soups. They have great flavors and are quite tasty. I always get the bbq at the table. I know they were closed because of ventilation for a while. I would recommend

Lisa Schilb

Always the Best Korean food ever Highly recommend

Michael Braun

The food was quite expensive. My noodles were flavorless besides all the chili sauce. The restaurant itself was dark and the seats were uncomfortable.

David Kim

I was there 3 times after I look at the reviews and I realized why people mentioned the foods are good and services are bad. This K restaurant make good food by cook but the owner didn't even train the servers. They are absolutely not properly trained to serve the customers. Guy and girl they both not friendly servicing. Owner of this restaurant need to improve serving part of the business.

Linda Boucher

My family and I have been going to Seoul Garden for the past few years. I always thought the food was delicious and service was decent. It has been some time since we have been to the St. Ann locate, and I can say after my recent experience I won't be going back. I called Saturday afternoon to see if they were able to accommodate a party of 8 for Sunday dinner. Reservation made. On the day of the reservation a family member, who arrived before me, called me and said they did not have a reservation for us. When I arrived the staff said, "Oh, we were expecting you yesterday." I explained to her when I made the reservations that I said "Sunday" multiple times and she even confirmed before we got off the phone. Anyhow, she responded saying there was a table for 6 and 2 available. I told her we could wait, if she could try to make something work. Lucky the restaurant was not super busy, we were able to be seated together. Overall, our experience lacked good service. We ordered the AYCE, the server would only allow us to order two servings of meats at a time. That was fine but after the first around of meats, although I tried to order two plates at a time, they brought out one plate at time for a party of 8 to share...Additionally, I had to ask for the server to bring out the sesame oil and lettuce. Our side dishes had to be asked to be refilled. There were three servers in the restaurant, one mentioned they all shared the tables. The problem was that there was not a designated server for a section/table. It felt as though none of the servers communicated and each assumed that the other had stopped by to check on us. Majority of the time the all three servers were all in the back kitchen. My family and I spent more time waiting for assistance than actually eating in the restaurant. A very disappointing experience at a restaurant that I once enjoyed.

Cayla Boyd

Very great first experience. They answered all questions. Customer service was amazing

James Huesmann

Always excellent food and service.

J Peterman

Good was really good,decor could use some help very drab and dated...

Ryan Irwin

Excellent food and excellent experience! Cooking our own meat was fun, though without much direction it was somewhat haphazard. All the meats were delicious. There was a delightful assortment of appetizers that were wonderful as well. We really want to come back with family and friends. Though the cost is a bit high. I figure you're paying not just for excellent food, but for a unique experience that's worth it.

Lee Tarnow

Good food, bad service. The tables are sticky, and the interior is generally dirty. The bathroom is filthy. The walls are covered in soot. Waitress brought me Japanese spirits when I specifically ordered Japanese beer, and would not take off the charge. Some of the wait staff are less friendly than others as well.

Raul Rojas

Stayed at an airport hotel for a conference and tried Seoul Garden on the first day since it was nearby and we didn’t have a car. After we told others about it, the word spread to other attendees, and it seemed like everybody dined there and thanked us for the tip. Really impressed with the food here. They brought great 12 sides with our meals, and offered us more. If you’re staying near the airport, highly recommend. Great for meat eaters or vegetarians. Try the Stone Bowl Bee Bim Bap.

Gigia Sultan

Love the food. Cool little Korean town

Kenneth Brown

Most incredible Korean food that I have had since my 2 year stint in South Korea while in the army. Great all you can eat meal with all the fixings. AWESOME!!!

Neil Guy Lindberg

Tastes good, friendly, but we had to wait to ask for lettuce every meat. For $50 for two we we're dissatisfied when waiting a long time to order more meat and ignored. Finally I interrupted a waiter and was told I could pay at the counter. What!? This is all you can eat and we we're still hungry!

Rachel Mayabb

1st time here. Got the AUCE BBQ. It was amazing. Highly recommend this place. Service was fast and friendly.

David Zhang

So far I've been to Seoul Garden twice, gonna average out my two experiences. First visit was great. My server (tall male Korean) was awesome, got me everything I needed and always checked up to see if I wanted anything else. Food tasted great, and I was pleasantly surprised, despite the restaurant's hefty price. Solid place for kbbq, and would've visited again anytime. However, after the second visit I've begun to have my doubts. Biggest change I saw was the service. Another server (African-American female) failed to change my grill plate, failed to deliver me a menu, and forgot to deliver me my water. Food tasted about the same, but again no scissors were delivered to cut the pork belly with. Not worth the 25 bucks the second time around. However, averaging out my two experiences I would still stand with my opinion that Seoul Garden is still a solid restaurant to visit for a great night out and its ambience is amazing.

Rachel Stuart

Great service. Great food. Definitely worth a repeat trip.

Amore De Vida

Love the all you can eat BBQ. good service every time.

Leatta Workman

Great food. A great treat!

KG Baek

There are 2 Seoul Garden. The other one is located in Olive BLVD. I like there a little bit more.

Andy Martello

So good, filling, great flavors!

Tony Chien

I brought my family to this restaurant after picking up my son from airport. When we arrived, we have noticed the restaurant received a B grade from health department. The restaurant is small and greasy. We decided to leave since we have never been to a restaurant that has a B rating from the health department.

Tom Castello

Decent food terrible service. Guy came to our table once in the 1 and a half hour we were there and the place wasn't busy at all. He avoided us at every turn. Only reason I gave it 2 stars is because the food was edible. Find a better place for Korean food it shouldn't be too difficult.

Jaeduck Park

Good food.

Morgan of the Strange

Omg! This place has phenomenal food and a great staff who are genuinely nice plus really seem to enjoy being there! Couldn't ask for a better experience! Def recommend it! The premium all you can eat is the way to go if you love octopus like I do!

Vicky S

Outstanding establishment we love coming here. This is a authentic Korean family style restaurant. If you are in the neighborhood you ahould try it out.

Amanda Sotelo

The food was amazing. Was a little disappointed that St. Louis put out a ban on tabletop grills but it didn’t take away from the wonderful authentic flavors!

Michael Freeze

Great food and service

Chip Wagner

I was highly disappointed with the integrity and customer service of this restaurant. They advertise an all you can eat, with a $7 up charge for a single person. I was willing to pay the fair price, I didn’t complain about the extra $5 price bump via their “new menu they just received yesterday”. Then the waitress informed me I couldn’t order the all you can eat because I was alone. Seriously. I was instructed to order something else off the menu. After traveling for several hours I was hungry and tired. I queried the server about the discrepancies, who replied “we haven’t updated the website yet, we no longer offer the all you can eat for a single person. “ Basically, we don’t care that you drove here for something we publicly advertised. I told her to cancel the order I had placed a minute ago, and left. I’m pretty sure the legal term for that is bait and switch, aka Fraud. Highly disappointing.

Grace musa

Good food but terrible customer service by the waitress and it took them like 30mins to come to our table to take our order.

Andrew Wood

Great Food! If you ask for extra spice in your food-they know what you mean and will try to get you crying!

Abua Pikin

On the website it says you can cook your own food with the all you can eat menu, but when we got there and ordered, they cooked it in the kitchen and brought it out with the excuse that they don't let customers cook their foods anymore. I would have appreciated it if they had told me before I ordered, that way I wouldn't have ordered from the cook your own menu. I was looking forward to cooking my own meats.

James Long

Beef Bulgogi is top notch

Kevin Mohundro

Food, service, excellent. Will be back.

Ian Winbrock

This place is great! Service is quick, right next to the airport and the food is reasonably priced. If suggest getting the all you can eat Korean BBQ if you are a fan of meat and really want to pack the food away. If that's not your thing, give the Kim Chi Pancake a try and then order the hot stone Bibimbap. Its a Korean rice bowl filled with veggies, meat and egg that cooks more as you it it. Once you sit down and order your server will place about a dozen small dishes in front of you ranging from seaweed salad, pickled cabbage and radishes to fish cakes. Dive in! Its part of the fun. Atmosphere 3/5 Service 4/5 Food 4/5

Lyon S.

I think the best korean bbq in STL.

Memphis Hexman

I would give this place a 3 1/2 rating. It is hard to enjoy true Korean BBQ without a cook-at-table experience (note: cook-at-table is not available at this restaurant). The food was okay, and unless you had a huge appetite for meat, it is impossible to try all choices in the buffet menu. Service was good.

Carl Christiansen Jr.

Excellent food! Spicy chicken, black bean noodles... Everything was delicious. Fantastic service and value.

Jaynicholle Clayton

We went to another soeul garden before this location and the service was horrible! The host sat us after 10mins of standing there, and servers continued to ignore our table for 30 mins sitting other ppl and taking their orders around us, we left in a hurry and called this location to see if they could provide better service, David picked up and was pleasantly nice and told us he will give us exceptional service and he delivered! The food was quick and fast and delicious! We made sure to tip him very well because he turned our horrible experience into a awesome experience! Thank you David!!

Richard HayCraft III

I went there with my friends on a double date and it was awesome we did their all you can eat though it is a little pricey I definitely would say it was authentic but delicious. I think that I got my money's worth out of it by a long shot. On the other hand if you are a heavy soda drinker I believe they charge by drink but i don't know for sure i just didn't ask and they never really asked me if i wanted another drink just asked about the food. I hope that if you go you can figure that part out for me. I had a great experience and will definitely go back.

C Simril

Exceptional service and food is delicious! Lunch was perfect! Appealing to the pallet visuals are on point. A large selection menu fit for most taste and diet restrictions

Shane Blodgett

My fiance and I are foodies so we try a lot of new places. Usually to our disappointment. Not this time. We WILL be back! The mains were delicious and plentiful. The sides were strong rivals too. Ate way past the point of full because we simply had no choice.

Allison S

One of my favorite places to eat hands down.

Lydia Milan

Food and service were truly outstanding! Definitely coming back soon!

Latasha Jones

Ate here quite a few times & the food was good. However, the last time I ate here a few days ago, they didn't cook the short ribs thoroughly, it was bleeding red on the inside, but brown on the outside. Be careful & check to make sure meat is cooked all the way. I don't eat uncooked meat & this made me furious especially after spending 100.00 on a meal for me & my husband. This place needs a lesson in how to cook meat properly, I won't be going back & will be spreading this message

Diane Lentz

We have a dozen Korean restaurants a mile from our house in Texas, and we have it just about every week. Needed to wait for rush hour traffic to clear, so decided to see what was near the airport and found Seoul Garden. Was very pleasantly surprised, the food was great, we had several choices of Soju. The only reason I gave it four stars is because the decor could use a little updating. Would definitely eat there again.

Adam W

by the time i leave this review, i just left this restaurant. the reasoni gave one star is that first, they Don't have self-serve BBQ anymore!! Second, while we having meal, there was a ROACH right next to yhe table! if dinning area is like this, how worse it could be in the kitchen?!

Chris Salazar

Great food at a good price!! Definitely worth trying if you’re looking for something different and flavorful!

Tommy Bateman

A great experience with friendly & knowledgeable staff. Our group ordered a variety of entree's and all were delicious! The Soft Tofu Soup is a 'must have'.

Crystal Higginbotham

Loved every bit if it! Service was great, too!

Joel S

One of the few Korean restaurants in town. Food is good and not cynically priced for Korean food, but you'll smell like hotpot when you leave.

Bilbo Swaggins

Very relaxing and fun atmosphere. Don't be afraid to speak to the waiters! Everyone is pretty down to Earth here.

Latise Agee

The food is great, the atmosphere is family friendly and the service is excellent.

XiaoXia Caulfield

Foods here are very tasty! No matter it's eat all you can Korean BBQ or order meals from the menu. Keep coming here for 6 years. Good place for bringing group or just by yourself.

Heidi Shyu

What a feast! I had delicious bulgogi and was surprised with the dozen side dishes! Friendly and fast service - will definitely come back here again!

Alex Munoz

So disappointed in this restaurant. My wife and I started coming to this particular Seoul Garden location because of a terrible experience we had at the Creve Coeur location. We've never had any issues until last weekend, where we stopped in for dinner before going to a movie. Everything started out okay, we were seated pretty quickly and our orders were taken, but after that is when everything seemed to go downhill. I had to ask the young lady who I assumed was waiting our table (since she sat us and took our initial order) twice for an order of lettuce and chili sauce. After about 15-20 minutes, they never came. I eventually asked the young man who was waiting tables behind us for my lettuce and sauce. After finishing our first bulgogi platter, we waited for our initial server to come back to our table, but it was like she forgot we were there. This wouldn't have been so bad if we didn't happen to be the only table in our section at the time. When she finally did come back to our table, it was to ask if we were ready for our checks, to which I responded we wanted to order more food. Another 15-20 minutes went by, no food. I eventually gave up and just asked the young man again for our order, to which he was very understanding and made sure our food was ready. By the time we were ready to pay the bill, I asked him who was technically our server for the night, because it seemed like there was just a lot of disorganization and miscommunication going on. Again, this would have been understandable if it was busy, but we were literally the only table who had people sitting around it in our section. So disappointed since the food is always delicious, but the service is poor. Will definitely look somewhere else to enjoy Korean BBQ.

Definitely not the place you go being hungry! Very unorthodox restaurant all around!

Food is delicious. However, some of servers want you to eat less food even it is all you can eat place. Our server was so mean when we asked more meat to grill and she tried to escape and did not show up once we asked second round of meats

Simple menu, featuring all you can eat grilled meat. The service has improved since they first opened. But they are always busy because the food is just good.

As a person that is familiar with Korean food, both here and in Korea, I will admit that their food is delicious. We are actually long time customers. However, I feel the need to write that lately we feel less and less welcome. We have now encountered multiple instances of poor service and rude treatment during the dinner hours. I am sad to say that despite my love for their food, I have reached my limit with this treatment and will take my family and friends to dine at other local Korean establishments where the food is also delicious and the staff treats us like family.

Decent Korean barbecue. It's definitely not as good as the food you could get in DC/Northern VA where you have a largest concentration of Koreans. MO has recently made it illegal to have a cook top on the table to it kinda remove the true Korean experience from the restaurant.

The food is excellent and the staff is super friendly!

Becky Bates

This place was not for me. It's an interesting concept, but I did not like the flavoring of the dishes. But the place was packed with people who were enjoying their food. And they offered a large array of sides and meat choises.

Definitely worth a try! Yummy!

They're close to the real deal. Love their beef bulgolgi and cucumber kimchi.

Kacy Cho

Great authentic Korean food. Always go there and have always been satisfied. Food is great. All you can eat Korean BBQ is awsom. Staff is always friendly. The restroom needs to be remodeled. Restaurant is very relaxed. This is a mom and pops kinda place. I will be going back soon.

I go here with my family a lot, and we always order the all you can eat. The bring a small propane stove out to the table and you cook your own meats, choosing from a good selection of tasty options. Meanwhile they bring out tons of amazing Korean appetizers and keep them refilled. It's quite a ways from my house, but well worth the drive.
