Soot Bull Jip

Great food, amazing service. The marinated beef was the best! Authentic flavors with lovely scent from the wooden charcoals. Service was outstanding, they cooked the meat to perfection. We didn't need to do anything. We went on a weekday lunch so it was quite empty. Plenty of parking available. Would definitely return.

The Soot Bull Galbi here has absolutely perfect seasoning and flavor. The meat is well-aged, tender, and full of depth. The staff are very friendly and grill the meat to perfection for you. Although the prices are on the higher side, I highly recommend this place if you want to experience authentic, delicious Korean charcoal-grilled galbi like in Korea. For reference, the beef galbi is much better than the pork galbi.

The parking is little crazy, but once you get in, it's all smoky and bunch of barbecue cooking right on the table. It makes you feel like you're at a true Korean barbecue house. The marinated ribs are really tender and it melts your mouth. The flavor is awesome! They also serve you with a vinegarett salad which it goes well with the meats. We also had the marinated shrimp and the squid that you can cook on the table and it was delicious. It's little pricey because you have to order several different kinds and the price starts to add up. We spent about $250 for 2 people...but still You gotta try it out!

First time eating KBBQ here; heard about the coal grills so I had to try it out. The meat is a little pricey but good quality. The House Special Soot Bull Galbi was perfectly marinated but some pieces were a little chewy. The jumulleok did not disappoint; love me some beef short rib. I do feel like the griller for our table was rushing a bit, but I appreciate how the meat was cooked.

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. I ordered beef ribs and pork ribs, and they were incredibly delicious—not too sweet or too salty. They also have a secret menu item that's not on the regular menu: "ice rice," which is rice served in a refreshing cold radish kimchi broth. It was so refreshing and delicious that I started eating it before I even thought to take a picture! They also have kimchi noodle soup, which is a perfect palate cleanser after eating the meat. I'll definitely visit again when I'm in LA.
