Even after all these years, they still make the best seafood soon dubu. The broth is rich with seafood flavor. The kimchi is excellent as is the veggie mix with plenty of seafood. It still is the place that makes my husband very happy. read more

Seoul Soon Tofu - Jampong - Korean Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Seoul Soon Tofu is a cozy Korean food stall inside Lotte Mart, serving up claypot soondubu and other comforting Korean dishes. I ordered the galbi with seafood tofu soup, plus a side of sundae and some kimbap. The food came out fairly quickly, especially for such a small operation. The galbi was a bit underseasoned compared to other spots I've tried, but it still had a nice, homemade feel. The real star here is the soondubu -- it has an incredibly rich, deep broth that tastes like it's been simmering for hours. You can tell the chef knows this is the main attraction, and they do it justice. The sundae (Korean blood sausage) was a generous portion and such a rare find in Jacksonville, so I was really happy to see it on the menu. The kimbap was fresh and had that comforting, homemade flavor too. The service was also lovely -- Jiwon behind the counter was super kind and attentive. If you're craving something warm, rich, and full of flavor, this place is worth a visit. It really does feel like a home-cooked meal. read more

Yummy jjajangmyeon black bean noodles - chewy noodles and lots of onions and sauce. Little watery and salty but not sweet so it was good for me. Seafood soft tofu soup was mild and had good flavor. Kimchi was legit, ample amount of rice and bulgogi chicken was flavorful. Everything came out piping hot. Located in the busy food court at Lotte and waiting for seats like a hawk. The place had just the right amount of wait time for the food. The spot was clean and simple. The cashier was nice and informative. Making sure that the pork in the jjajangmyeon was ok - which is fine because they're big enough to pick out and the seafood tofu soup was at their medium spice level - it was pretty mild in my opinion. read more

Not the type of Korean soft tofu I expected. Not much in the soup and Judy salty. Will not return.

Great spot in the food court at Lotte Food Market. This is my second time dining at this spot. Last time I went, I tried their blood sausage and some kind of spicy fried chicken dish. Both were very delicious. This time, I got the combo of soondobo and kalbi. I got a buzzer from the woman at the counter waited not too long until my order was ready. The soondobo came out bubbling hot and I ordered medium spicy. It was packed with flavor and had just the right amount of heat. It was actually the best I have had. The kalbi came with white rice, and a tiny bonachón of black bean, and kimchi. It was a decent portion but the flavor was lacking. It was a decently cooked meat but it was missing that signature kalbi flavor like it wasn't marinated and grilled. I saw someone else mention the same issue on their review so it doesn't seem like a one off thing. Nevertheless, food was tasty, healthy, and fresh and I would be back to try something else. read more

Located inside the food court in Lotte Market in Orlando. This is a must stop for me even in the area. I wish they had these in Tampa!! We came in when they opened which was 11am and it soon started to get busy. I got the combo with Soondubu tofu and bulgogi and hubs got the brown noodles. The bulgogi lacked flavor but the Soondubu was delicious. Hubs noodles were also delicious! Portion sizes were large enough for us to share. Seating is in the cafeteria area and open to where you want to sit. Once you're done eating you leave your tray at the designated location for each restaurant located in the food court. read more

After a long drive, we were grateful that this restaurant inside Lotte plaza market was still open We were starving and were craving soup and something homemade. This place was great! Their tofu stew was very tasty and the soup I got was light and felt very comforting since it was raining outside. Idk soup always sounds good when it's cold and rainy lol. The staff was kind as well and provided us with kimchi and pickled vegetables as well. The place itself was within the market's food court so there were a lot of tables to choose from and sit at. I would love to check out this place again as well at the other food places within the market :) read more

(2/6/2024) Came by to get some groceries at Lotte and a weekday lunch. Love getting all the variety of foods from the best food court around. The Soft Tofu Stew with Seafood was literally boiling hot, deliciously salty, great on rice. Got the Ttebokki with cheese (an overwhelming amount of cheese) and a Kim Bap (which you can actually just buy in the prepared foods section of the grocery store). The best kind of "fast" food you can get. read more

I always get the Spicy tofu soup/Spicy pork combo. The spicy soup is usually seafood but I change it to kimchi instead. The soup is always a hit, very flavorful and spice is up to my standards. For spicy pork though, I think over the years they've made their spicy pork not spicy anymore.. I don't know if it's because other customers complained it was too spicy but that's why it's called spicy pork! I hope they make it as spicy as it was before they changed it, now the pork isn't even red at all. They've changed the sides from beans to different vegetables that I like way better! The side of rice always comes with it too. I'll always be coming back as it's my favorite tofu soup in the area. But I still want to see them bring back spicy pork to actually be spicy. read more

I am never disappointed. A must stop when I am grocery shopping at Lotte! I usually always get a tofu stew but this time I happened to see the lunch box special. It is $12.99 which is a great price for all that's included. It comes with bulgogi, one mandu, japchea, a couple pieces of pickled radish, 2 kimbap pieces and rice. My only thing I would approve in is the only option to add spice was pepper flakes. Which worked perfectly fine to spice it all up but I would have preferred something else. read more

Seoul Soon Tofu - Lunchbox special $12.99 - Korean Near Me - Orlando, Florida

As i was atriving in Orlando, I was determined to get some Asian food. I decided to go to Lotte Market with an on-site food court with many options. Lotte is about 30 minutes from the airport, and I'm all in. Unfortunately I got to the foodcourt too late at 8:30, and all but Seoul Soon Tofu were closed. I decided to have jjam ppong (noodles with spicy seafood). Sure it is not their main thing (tofu or dooboo), but the picture on the menu twisted my arm...very firmly, albeit virtually. As you can tell in the picture, the portion was huge. It smelled and tasted wonderful. The broth was spicy, and the clams, mussels, and prawns were all there appeasing my palate. My hungry tummy was satisfied with the bowl. Disappointingly small banchan, I'm overall pleased with this experience. read more

I'm a huge fan of tofu, especially when it's incorporated into curries or thick broth. That being said, Seoul Soon Tofu's chicken bulgogi and tofu stew really exceeded any expectations I had. For $16, I definitely wanted something decent, but it was actually amazing. The stew was served boiling in a pot with an oozing egg garnish to add a wow-factor. The aroma was all I needed to know I had paid for an experience on top of a meal. The chicken was a little greasy, but that barely took away from how delicious it was. I didn't do a lot of mixing between the two dish components, but I thought they shined individually. To eat here, you have to visit the Lotte Plaza Market and try out their food court. It's attached to multiple other businesses and has a central seating area that's first come, first seated. You can order food there or to-go without any issues, but for meals that come sizzling like mine did, it's definitely better to eat there and experience everything in full! read more

We were making a trip to Lotte Plaza Market and decided to just have lunch there since they had restaurants in their food court. They have a few different restaurants to choose from such as Korean, Filipino, Vietnamese, etc. We decided on Seoul Soon Tofu because it seemed the most appetizing at the moment. I got the tofu stew with galbi and my sister got the seafood jjamppong. Tofu stew: It didn't really have a taste but it was okay. Galbi: By far the tastiest galbi I've ever had in my life. Jjamppong: The most tastiest seafood stew I've ever had This place was life-changing! My combo came out to almost $20 and my sister's jjamppong was $10 and hers was definitely a better deal. I would have to agree with the rest of the reviews and say the for the price, the portion is quite small. I had four thinly sliced pieces of galbi and a small tofu stew for $20 while my sister's seafood stew was $10 and was huge! I would definitely go for that next time. Other than that, I love this place! read more

Seoul Soon Tofu - Sweet and sour pork - Korean Near Me - Orlando, Florida

My sister and I dropped by Lotte Plaza to get some groceries and hadn't gotten lunch. I had been craving Korean food (or any Asian food actually) since coming to Orlando and was hoping this would be some great stuff. Well, let's say that it fixed the craving, but that's about it. I guess I can't be picky, but it's hard to not judge the quality of korean food having lived in Atlanta, New York, and Los Angeles where the korean food is fantastic. PROS: - flavor was there - good quantity CONS: - sauce was lacking, not enough vegetables, no pineapples - the meat (supposed to be fried in dough) was super soggy and chewy, recommend that holes be placed in the lid so that the steam doesn't condense in the container I knew that Orlando was not known for having good Asian food, but I was hoping that whatever was there would be amazing for the few choices available. Hope that this gets improved over time (but probably not as it hasn't been in the past 10 years). read more

Want quick Korean food? This is the spot! Got the #6 combo and I still didn't expect the little banchan side dishes -- still felt like an in-restaurant experience at a food court! Got the soft tofu stew with beef. Tried galbi. Came with rice, kimchi, pickled daikon. It was really good coming from a small food court, and the lady was super sweet! Definitely a must try here at Lotte! read more

I've eaten here twice and I enjoyed the first time so much I got the same thing the second time as well. I had the #1 with mushroom veg. I'll admit that I'm not familiar with Korean dishes so I'll explain it as best as I can. What I got is a tofu stew that comes sizzling hot in a small kettle pot. The smell was incredible, and the taste; delicious! It was deeply flavorful, spicy! but I couldn't stop eating. It came along with a small serving of kimchi, white rice, and these black beans that were kinda sweet. For all you get, 9.99 is a great bargain. Can't wait to come back next time. read more

Checked out this food court option in Lotte market. I got the seafood tofu soup with spicy pork combo. I agree with prior reviewers. It lacks spice so in retrospect would definitely ask for extra spicy. The soup was good, it comes in a 16 oz container (not 32 oz like the jigae they sell at the premade section at the back of the market) so keep that in mind if you really wanted to chow down. It was flavorful with lots of seafood/tofu inside but again, it lacked the essential spiciness. The spicy pork was okay, way too much oil though. I'd probably order something different if I were to try them again. read more

I got item menu # 2 - Soondobu Jjigae with Spicy Pork Bulgogi on the side. I requested my Jjigae be with beef. It came out hot and bubbling in the stoneware bowl, and it was absolutely delicious. Definitely SPICY, but not enough to stop eating. There was a little bit of beef but an ample amount of the silky soft tofu, and a beautiful egg inside. The pork itself also came with rice, with black bean and kimchi banchan. I'm not normally a fan of the beans, but the kimchi was delicious, and the pork itself was stellar. Loved every bite of food. Also got a gimbap to split with my mom. Super tasty on its own and dipped in the soup broth! This is my second time ordering from them - the first time I ordered Jjajangmyeon and a gimbap as well, but took it home 2 hours away. Still tasted absolutely delicious. read more

Very convenient place to eat if you need to go asian food grocery shopping. They have a variety of foods. My favorite place is Soon Tofu. They offer combo menus.

It's supposed to be a cold dish and it came out just room temperature. I will definitely go back for the combo menus. read more

Went here for lunch while in Orlando while looking for boba to drink. The food was good, although portion sizes were a little small for the price. It was approximately 15 dollars and my girlfriend and I both left hungry, which could've been prevented by going to other places in the food court. Food had good flavor as well. I do wish we had more rice, as the portion of rice i believe is nowhere near enough for the other food. Overall, not bad for the price but I would like more for the money. read more

Huge fan of Lotte mart, been to one in Asia so was hoping for some good food at the food court and Soeul soon tofu did not dissappoint. I got the spicy pork with soondubu combo for $16-$17. Seems expensive but it definitely was not a small meal, it was like having 2 courses with the amount of meat they gave. Also the black beans are good and the soup broth is actually really flavorful. Most of the time, I've had food court soondubu and it takes kind of watered down, this one was real rich and good heat(ask for medium or HOT). Also the spicy pork soft tender goes great with rice. Only thing I would complain about is the styrofoam box, if I'm eating in can't they just put everything in a metal bowl and not cause so much trash waste! Save the environment guys, you make good food now make good to the world! Overall great place would come back and recommend. read more

The best tofu stew ever , extremely friendly staff and generous portions. Please stop by to try some of their specialties items:)

Seoul Soon Tofu is a Korean food court located in the Lotte Market on the corner of West Colonial and John Young Parkway. It's essentially, a big Korean Super Market with 5 food stalls. Parking is ample so no complaints there. Walking in, you will immediately see the fruits and vegetable section. Immediately to your right is the food section. Ample seating arrangements unless you come on a Sunday around noon. I was lucky to get there around 1145am with a few open spots. I ordered #6 Galibi with the tofu soup. I elected not to get the soup as I ordered another dish from Taglish. They charged me the same price and offered me to add more meat to the dish. I said yes! The galbi came sizzling hot on an iron plate which was in top of a wooden cradle along with 3 small sides. They consisted of kimchi, shredded veggies and rice. The meat was seasoned perfect and not overly drenched in the sweet sauce. It also had onions that was buried underneath the mound of meat. The menu has a lot of options I have yet to try. So far I have been impressed with the selections I have had. read more
