I really enjoyed myself at this restaurant.The best part about it was that they have ribeye.Steak, which is my favorite type of steak. It was huge, very thick and it cooked really well.I also tried some shrimp. And they have spicy baby octopus available, which was delicious free parking?That was very easy to find and access.The restaurant is big.It gets busy, but there’s plenty of available tables still. Staff was very friendly and very attentive. Multiple servers kept coming around to check on us.
Which was very
Helpful and i was thankful for that.

This is my new favorite KBBQ place! KBBQ is my fave food to go out to eat so I’ve tried a ton of places. Honestly this one has it all for me. The meats are delicious and so many cool options. The service is excellent, they even come help you cook when they see you enjoying your food, they are super attentive and anticipate what you might need. Servers and front desk staff are all super nice. The sides are so good they even have tofu stew which is my fave as well!!! Kimchi was super tasty and my water and my chili sauce was always refilled! Will definitely be back. Oh and parking was super easy there’s a little backlot you can park in.

Whenever I hit LA which was twice this year, I must hit Korea Town and dine at Seoul. The service is always friendly, someone is always celebrating a birthday…energetic and fun. This last time we were in town for the Michigan/USC game and my friend had never been to LA…he loved it. Road to Seoul always delivers.

Came as a party of 10 for a birthday celebration on a Saturday night, and it was overall good! The ambiance was fun, and the meat quality was beyond my expectations. I particularly loved their whole squid and marinated pork belly, both were so delicious. Also, beef short ribs, brisket, bulgogi, and seafood pancakes were all pretty good too. As for the banchan (side dishes), I wish they could provide more sides and sauces for each table, we kept having to ask for more. l also loved their rice paper wraps!

Con? We had to tell the staff more than once what we needed. Also, this place needs to improve the ventilation, everything was smoke filled and greasy.

Overall, we enjoyed the food! 2 hours limit & each table accepts 3 credit cards max. Would recommend making a reservation ahead.

One of my to-go spot with my best friend for years. The line gets very long after 6pm during weekends. Weekdays are way better and cheaper too. (About $27 or so per person during weekday; $32 for weekends – they are the cheapest option, but with enough meat options I think)
The service has improved so much last time we visited. The girl who helped us was very helpful and friendly. The meat quality is nice.

The only part that I didn’t like was the happy birthday loud music over the whole restaurant so many times a night. It was fun for the first time, but the 3rd time and onwards started to get a bit annoying… weekday visits are better as there are less people and rarely any birthdays.

Oh one more thing- the small dishes are amazing! Plenty options and free refill. Love this place to the moon.

Other than this are all good!

Had an amazing experience with James as our server. To be brutally honest our experience almost got shattered with our previous server but James stepped in and gave us an experience that makes you eager to return and enjoy the delicious food and LONG list of meats they have to offer. I’ve come here a few times and always have a great meal with great service.

We celebrated our friend’s birthday on New Year’s Eve at Road to Seoul Korean AYCE BBQ Restaurant in Korea town, LA. There were parkings in the back of the restaurant. Self parked. A parking attendant collected a nominal $2.50 parking fee.

Typical AYCE Korean BBQ restaurant set up, lively and loud hip hop music. The restaurant looked a bit outdated. Reasonable AYCE pricing in LA. There were three menu tiers to choose from. We selected the middle tier, option B for $36.99 per person. Quality of the meat was good, better than most AYCE Korean BBQ places. We liked the beef galbi, bulgogi, spicy chicken and octopus. Did not care for the lamb steak. The fried pancake was a hit for us. We were not impressed with their banchan (side dishes), especially the japchae. Most Korean restaurants have a lot more banchan to offer. The steamed egg (deflated), whole squid and soft tofu soup (unflavored) need some work.

Service was excellent despite how busy the servers were on a long holiday weekend. One of the servers even brought us more warm teas and napkins without us even asking for them. However, we didn’t like the house rules regarding ordering from the menu. We ordered the first round of meat/food and in 10 minutes, we tried to place another order of meat but the waitstaff informed us that we couldn’t place the order until all the meats ordered before were grilled. Also, we were allowed to order only 3 bowls of steamed eggs and 3 bowls of soft tofu soup each round of order. Everything must be ordered in 3’s. Since there were 11 people in our group, many of us had to wait to place our order for additional soup and steamed eggs. We have never experienced this at any AYCE Korean BBQ Restaurants. Also, if you like veggies with your meal, the only veggie they have was the mushrooms. You could order a plate of lettuce to do the traditional wraps but at a cost of about $3.50. We thought lettuce should have been included on the menu like rice bowl.

Overall, this was a fun place for a large group and to celebrate birthdays. To set the mood, the restaurant turned off all the lights and switched to the flickering lights with a designated birthday song played overhead and everyone joined in the BD celebration. Waitstaff then brought our friend the birthday treat. A great place to celebrate birthday.
