The cutest little hole in the wall restaurant with the best authentic Korean food! We loved their bulgogi. Large portions with delicious sides. Love visiting the store part afterwards to grab snacks! Can't wait to go back. read more

Came on a Saturday. Warning they run out of kimbab early so if that's your thing (like it is for my son) then come early. We got the japchae, spicy squid, jajamyung, bulgogi, and sundubo . Everything was delicious and tasted like home cooking. My very picky and judgmental parents love this place. The services was great. The owner is so personable and made everyone feel comfortable and had a great time. There are limited seats, it looks like most people just order to go. They seem to be busy with lots of catering orders too. read more

Was nervous to go here because I'm not from here (and I have anxiety lol), but they were really welcoming and made me feel comfortable! To the left is the market and then the right side is the restaurant. The food was amazing, non-greasy, well seasoned meat, and fresh veggies. I WILL be back! read more

Seoul Market Cafe - 2. Bibimbap / Mixed Rice with Meat & Vegetables - Korean Near Me - Wyoming, Michigan

If you don't know where to order, where to sit, or what to order, you know this place is gonna be good. Mom and pop shop. Hole in the wall. Yes there's not much seating. Yes it might take a while. Yes they always out of something. But is it damn good? Yes yes yes! One of the best Korean food spots in West Michigan maybe even through the whole state. Trust me. Get the Soondubu Jigae. Eat it with the purple rice. Thank me later. 5/5 read more

Highly recommend! Came with a group of 5 on a Sunday right when they opened. With minimal seating (5 tables or so) coming early or to go orders is probably recommended. We ordered deokbokki, soondubu jjigae, and the jaeyuk bokkeum and all three were amazing. Good portion and they don't skimp out on the seafood / protein compared to other places that load up with mixed veggies. The soondubu jjigae was very hot (temperature) and spicy (the good kind) and with the side of purple rice, it just makes you want to keep on eating. As it's a grocery store / cafe combination and the workers move back and forth, service can take a little while but it's well worth it. Love supporting local small shops as well. Will come again next time I'm in the area for sure. read more

Great food, service and simple yet welcoming ambience!!! They serve red rice which was delicious and more appealing than plain white rice . Small cafe with a generous appeal. read more

This place is an amazing little hole in the wall. It's basically a store, but they have a restaurant in it and the food is so fresh and authentic. The service is done by the store owners and family members with a few outsiders. All were friendly and English is spoken so you don't have to learn Korean to eat there. lol. Would definitely go there again! Seating is limited and it is a little tight, but the food is so worth it. I would go early as they run out of things. read more

The owners are sweet and welcoming. They have about 5 tables inside. Their food is authentic Korean food freshly made.

The food is always so so good and authentic. The service is amazing. The guy is always so nice. They have such a great selection of whatever you're looking for. If you can't find anything, just talk to the guy and he will help you out! We come back all the time! I'd rate it 100 out of 100 every single time! read more

Seoul Market Cafe - Korean Near Me - Wyoming, Michigan

Authentic Korean food. Hits the spot everytime! The spicy pork is my favorite and it comes with rice and banchan.

Really authentic! And the service was great. It is small but you can also get takeout

Growing up my family would always come here to get some Asian ingredients and their giant jars of kimchi and their Saturday kimpab and japchae. I forget how long ago they built that little cafe area, but it's a little gem if you are craving some homemade style Korean comfort food here in GR. Since I don't eat beef, I ordered the bibimbap with tofu and they charged extra for that. I think that's kind of a lot considering tofu is much cheaper than beef but since it's a family owned business that we have supported for almost two decades, it'll do. read more

Seoul Market Cafe - Tofu Bibimbap with kimchi - Korean Near Me - Wyoming, Michigan

The meals are authentic and delicious. Do not expect much service and the ambiance is very casual. I'm aware some choices are made to keep costs low for the customers that may not be as efficient. Patience is required during 'peak' meal times especially on weekends. Do not sleep on the market selections. They are now offering prepared items on Saturdays but you must get there early or stick around because these are flying off the shelves. Don't forget to try the best assortment of novelty ice creams as well. Can't get this anywhere else! read more

Everything was so delicious! Best bulgogi I have had in the Grand Rapids area ever. The banchan was also a nice touch and very yummy. Amazing service, they checked in many times to make sure we liked everything. read more

Seoul Market Cafe - Korean Near Me - Wyoming, Michigan

Hidden not so hidden gem. Quality taste and service. No frills place and you order and prepay before you get your food. My foodie dad that's been to Korea A LOT loved how homemade the food tastes. I got the hot bowl and loved the crispy rice at the bottom. The store as a whole has a lathe frozen section. read more

Amazing food, very friendly staff/owner. Tried the spicy tofu stew and the beef stew, both amazing. Will be coming back to try other dishes. 10/10 read more

Updating to let everyone know I got the black bean noodles and they were incredible. This was a super savory noodle dish with mushrooms, onions, and other veggies. The noodles were heavy and chewy. It reminded me a cross between lo mein and udon. It's a very familiar umami/savory taste so I think lots of people would enjoy this dish. It's very similar in taste and texture to lots of other popular East Asian noodle dishes. Loved it, certainly getting it again! read more

Seoul market has enough essential Korean stuff for sure. It was much smaller than I thought. Everything was over priced but I get that we aren't in LA nor DC where has big Korean community. The owner guy was pretty rude asking me to take my mask off just so he can remember my face to greet me next time I come. I told him I'd come as exactly same as today (mask on) "IF" I come back next time..‍ I can see that maybe he was trying to be friendly but he seemed rude, nosy & awkward. read more

Really good hole in the wall place attached to a grocery store so if you want an extra drink you can purchase it at the store for your meal. Menu has a good amount of choices and the food is always good. I like getting #10. read more

One of my fave restaurants in GR! The jamppong is genuinely spicy but in the best way! Tons of seafood and great flavor. Alice all their other spicy stir fry options too in addition to ban chan. Been here 5+ times because I enjoy the service, workers, and food so much! read more

Seoul Market Cafe - Spicy squid and Bulgogi - Korean Near Me - Wyoming, Michigan

Hands down my favorite spot for Korean food in Grand Rapids. It's low key and the food is straightforward and delicious. My favorites are the Bulgogi (Korean Beef), Jae Yuk Bokkeum (Spicy Stir-Fried Pork) and Jjajang Myun (Noodles in Black Bean Sauce). I'm sure you cannot go wrong with any dish here but I stick with their non-spicy items for my low spice tolerance. There's also have a cooler with containers of fresh side dishes but they seem to sell out quickly. Overall, great place for food and groceries. read more

If you want genuine Korean food this is the place. It's small, has an old school feel, with an amazing chef who does Korean food like it was done in the old days. It's flavorful, colorful, and geared to one's spice taste. When I've been there, I've had to wait due to the long lines. But it's worth the wait. read more

Tiny hole in the wall but Amazing!! BBQ beef was to die for good hardy portions loved it!!! Will be back when in area... read more

Korean cuisine is a must have for me. All of the menus are very good. Sadly, a few of the menus were unavailable at times, but overall very good authentic Korean food in GR. Tteokbokki was a bit bland or sometimes too spicy, the tofu soup was amazingly good but hot(beware). My favourite was the Bulgogi, very savory and sweet at the same time. Goes along very well with the rice and other banchans. read more

You know the food is legitimate when there are ajummas cooking in the kitchen. This is hands down, THE BEST Korean food that you can get in town. The portions are decent, the price is fair, and it tastes just like home cooking. Each dish is served with a side of purple rice and banchan (side dishes). I recommend the Al-Tang, Jamppong (add spice for a real kick) and the Ojingeo bokkum. The Yukaejang is also to die for. Soups are perfect for gloomy/cold weather! Only thing I would like is for them to have more side dishes, but the amount they have makes do as they are a little restaurant located inside of a smaller grocery store. read more

I used to live down the street when it was just a market. Now a tiny corner is devoted to making delicious food- Maybe I should move back in the neighborhood. We came at a rush and had to wait over 25 min. But it has downtimes and busy usually means it's good. They kept apologizing to us for the wait, really nice people. Take out is an option too if you can't get a table. Bulgogi and Kim bap both delicious. All the little dishes were tasty too. Generous portions and good value. read more

YES. This is the kind of place that you take someone to when they say they're not sure if they'd like Korean food. The food has the kind of finesse that comes from age-old recipes. The food on the menu seems to fall into one of two categories: 1) Seemingly complicated description/ingredient list that is simply delicious and familiar -or- 2) Deceivingly simple description/ingredient list that is wonderfully complex and interesting This isn't what I call a foo-foo la-la kind of place and that's really the best one can hope for. read more

My kid and I have gone to Seoul Market a few times now and have never been disappointed. The food is really tasty, hot and fresh and not a bad price point per meal. Each meal is about $13-15 so it always about $30 for the both of us. We have always gotten bibimbap and bulgogi but it's a lot of food and we can usually make a couple of meals from it. It's probably our number one place for take out at the moment but I don't see that changing any time soon. I highly recommend Seoul Market for some great food :) read more
