Popular go to for a fast and tasty meal! I love that there are so many veggie options as well. Plenty of parking options on the street and there is a lot near by. Service was a little backed up around dinner but we got our food pretty quickly. Plenty of seating inside the restaurant and some seating outside for warmer days. A nice spot for a casual dinner before heading over to the Grove! I always go with a tofu burrito and typically have some left to save for later. The bulgogi bowl is always very delicious. read more

Seoul Taco - Gogi Bowl - Food Trucks Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

I find that I need a burrito, both physiologically and emotionally, on a daily basis, but I don't actually get a burrito very often. I don't dine out as often as I used to, and sometimes it's necessary to get a cheeseburger. Of course I would never attempt to make a burrito in my own home. I wouldn't have visited Seoul Taco today, except that another restaurant I intended to visit, nearby, was closed. I'd read on the app that it's sometimes randomly not open during posted business hours, and wouldn't you know, that turned out to be the case today. Did the owner decide he'd rather go fishing? Is he in jail for a crime that would be considered reprehensible even by Grove standards? I'm not into spreading rumors. Ask someone at Pie Guy. Oh wait, you can't. This location of the local Korean fusion chain appeared to me like a beacon at the east end of the eclectic business district. It's in a weirdly nice building that may have been purposely designed to attract gainfully employed young people. The entire block, consisting of at least two apartment buildings and multiple storefronts, has the design language of a circa '08 Chipotle. If you wanted to, you could actually live in an apartment above Seoul Taco. Imagine how convenient that would be. I knew I should have tried harder in college. The burrito here is an especially generous serving, the fact that it consists primarily of rice notwithstanding, but the tacos might be the thing to get. It's a perfectly fine serving size, and the emphasis is on the meat, as it should be. Right, Puff Daddy? The Seoul Tacos come with your choice of meat, spring mix that's probably from a bag, some sort of sriracha-mayo mix and that might be it. I'm not familiar with the Street Tacos, and in fact I wasn't aware that they existed until just now. They might have more of an attitude. I toyed with the idea of getting a quesadilla, which is never bad, even if you get it from Taco Bell. Instead, I went with the Nachos, for a little textural contrast. I got one taco in addition to the nachos, because I hadn't had one in literally decades, and I figured it might be useful as a point of comparison if I visit any other restaurants that serve tacos. The nachos were surprisingly beef-forward. Rarely are you presented with an entree that has more beef in it than you expected. I felt like I was in a Wendy's circa 1983. For anything with beef in it, you pay a surcharge that, depending on the item, is almost enough to purchase an entire meal elsewhere, so I guess that's the least they can do. Meanwhile, there's not much cheese. Should it not be the opposite? By definition, nachos are chips and cheese. You don't even necessarily need the meat. Was the person who made this on drugs? There's a dispensary nearby. You're bombarded by the smell, if you park at that end of the street. For the taco, I went with the spicy pork, which might be the thing to get. The beef is great (ahem), and I suspect that the surcharge has as much to do with the taste as the food cost (they could just give you less of it, or jack up the price of everything else), but the pork is arguably just as good (with all due respect to the Honorable Minister), and it has the rare distinction of having a spice level appropriate for an adult of normal intelligence. You can actually taste it. If I were to return, I'd probably get the Seoul Tacos with the pork, even if money were no object. Like, if I won the lottery. I was delighted to see that this place has cookies, and of course I felt obligated to try one, as part of a balanced diet. They don't seem to be freshly baked, and they cost too much, but they're great. If I'm not mistaken, one of them was a matcha chocolate chip. Clearly, it was designed to appeal to the kind of person who would pay a premium to live upstairs. I went with some sort of salted caramel--like a chocolate chip cookie, but with caramel instead of chocolate. It was ginormous, tasty and probably very unhealthy. It had a texture not unlike those soft batch cookies they had to pull from the market because the trans fats would cause your heart to explode. If I ever die, it's their fault. read more

Overall I like Seoul taco a lot, the flavors are good and the food always seems fresh. The tacos and bowls are excellent and I really enjoy the branding. This location in particular isn't the best, though. Unfortunately it's the closest to my house. The atmosphere in this location feels unfinished and disconnected from the other locations. Also, the people working don't greet you or seem happy to help.. in fact the reason I'm leaving a review is because the last three times we've been in there placing a to go order, we wait and wait and wait while they call out some peoples orders, but neglect to call ours despite us placing the order directly and waiting on site. Each time we had to revisit the counter and pickup our food that's been sitting out. Once we get home, the egg is congealed, meat and rice are cold, and the overall experience is a bust. They could be doing better at this location, they just don't seem to care. read more

I've tasted Seoul Taco before but never been myself. I finally walked into the restaurant and placed an order for a Bulgogi Steak Gogi Bowl. So good and the portion size was enough for 2. I love the modern, colorful interior design! Service was ok. Not energetic but not rude. Pretty standard. I'll certainly stop in for lunch again. read more

Went for lunch with some coworkers. Food was really good and came out quickly. The OG kimchi was underwhelming for the price, but the Gogi bowl was great! The person who took my order was fast and friendly, moving the line quickly! Dining room was pretty clean for how busy it was, but the exterior doors weren't all unlocked. Like, 1 door of each set was unlocked, making it odd to get in and out. 1 door was actually blocked by a wooden trashcan box. Weird. But the Gogi bowl! So good! read more

My son and I wanted one last St Louis meal before heading back to Arkansas. We chose this location for Seoul Taco. Parking was easy, and the restaurant was nicely decorated. Ordering in house is easy, but they do a lot of take out orders, as well. The staff were friendly but nothing extra. We both ordered the Seoul Tacos, which is served on corn tortillas with your choice of protein: bulgogi steak, spicy pork, chicken or tofu. They're dressed with a spring salad mix, Seoul sauce, sesame seeds and a lime wedge. They were also served on taco holders, which was nice and made handling the tacos easier. The tacos were tasty and not too spicy. Overall, a good experience. read more

It was my first experience with combining Korean and Mexican food, and it was awesome! I loved the funky quesadillas and the spicy pork. That said, I would have loved a bit more attention as a customer. They even forgot to give me napkins. But I won't hold it against them. I'll give them a second chance. read more

The good: There are more Seoul Tacos than ten years ago - there's more opportunity to get. Another good; they're consistent. What you craved ten years ago is still the same throughout this chain. What is the name of this craving? Spicy pork burrito and some times the chicken burrito bowl (with egg). Decor is modern casual with high ceilings. Now the bad about this location: First, street parking can be challenging. Second, and my biggest criticism is actually directed at the municipality that runs this area. 12.1% sales tax. I've always wondered how an iconic area has a problem retaining businesses and I think I may have uncovered why. Am not sure about the business license tax in comparison to other municipalities and it might be attractive for businesses overhead cost reduction but sales tax will drive customers away. I did walk in on this establishments with only one customer at 1130am, and no one else after I left. I love Seoul Tacos, and I hope this location survives. read more

Easy, delicious, simple. It has been awhile since we indulged in the beauty that is seoul taco. This local chain boasts a simple, yet flavorful menu. They only have about 5-7 entrees, but with multiple protein selections and add ons you can really create a diverse plate. We have had just about everything on the menu up to this point. My partner is hypnotized by the spicy pork burrito. Anything bulgogi here has my heart. I went with tacos and kimchi fried rice. The bulgogi tacos were insane. And, for street tacos, had a solid amount of toppings/protein. The bulgogi is tender and ever so sweet. Cooked to perfected. The kimchi fried rice is amazing. I am not a huge kimchi fan, but if you sprinkle a bit of salt on top this dish goes to another level. The kimchi stays crunchy and offers fantastic acidity. The sesame seeds add some nice texture also. The workers are always nice and the vibes are good. Casual, quick, and quality. You can always eat inside, but we love to grab it as a quick bite and just take it home to enjoy. It never misses. Never. read more

The Food is so tasty, and the ambiance is creative and awesome. It's perfect for a group hangout session or a date night. Staff are funny, good at their job, and they serve quality food. I wonder if they have events lol. They serve a nice selection of alcohol, and have outdoor patio seating as well. Including an indoor bench like seating that's creative, and optimal for a photo op !! 10/10. read more

I was visiting St. Louis, MO & someone in a nearby business recommended your restaurant for lunch. A fusion of Korean & Mexican sounded intriguing so I decided to give it a try. The clerk at the counter was less than impressive as she consumed her own lunch at the register when I approached the counter. She did not immediately stop eating so I checked out the menu on the wall for a few moments while she continued to eat. A did have a couple of questions so when she did finally ask if she could help me I asked about the tacos on the top right side of the menu board. She was vague in her answers so I decided I'd just get a 2 & an appetizer item. As she keyed in my request she asked me at least 3 times what I wanted & kept clicking on the electronic keypad until I thought she had it entered. I asked for REGULAR tacos, NOT street tacos, w/chicken & NO cilantro. I received, STREET TACOS, w/BEEF & PLENTY of UNWANTED CILANTRO. W.T.A.F.?! Nothing was correct. I watched as she took the next guy's order and she made him repeat most of his order more than once as well. Was she HIGH? On RX meds that keeps her from being able to pay attention, I wish I knew. Puhleeze do something about this AA female that's taking the orders. I wish I could recommend your location to my foodie friends, but I would not subject them to that type experience for something as simple as an order of tacos. read more

Talk about a flavor blast! I got the Gogian Waffle Nachos. They are exclusive to in-store only, you can't order them online. The meal was a mixture of the Gogi Bowl and Nachos. The queso blanco felt out of place with the sweet potato waffle fries, I think it could've tasted better if it was just the Seoul Sauce. Great meal size, finished the whole tray and felt satisfied- not hungry or overly full. Inside was also super aesthetic! read more

Closed early with no sign or nothing. First and last time to try it. Went out of our way to go.

I like the open café-like feel of the restaurant. however, I think that they have two few condiment choices. For a place that serves fries, I think they should definitely have ketchup at least. There was also this 10 gallon soy sauce dispenser with a really loose control valve by the utensils, I just thought it was kind of strange. The amount of food for the prices are really really good value in my opinion. And I like the concept of the Korean Mexican mix. read more

I love love love their burrito. It's delicious and totally worth the price. I placed an order online and got a quick response that the order was in. The follow up left a little to be desired. I was going they'd send a text when it was ready, but instead I had to go in and ask. My order was sitting on the shelf ready to go. I've only sat inside a few times. It's casual and comfortable. It's one of my regular take out orders. read more

We challenged our nephew to take us to a fun and different restaurant of his choosing in St Louis. To his credit, he selected Seoul Taco! Nice! Founded by David Choi, this place serves Korean Mexican food that is both unique and fun! Our bulgogi nachos with cheese, black sesame seeds, kimchi and scallions were possibly the best nachos we have ever had! Zowie! Taste explosion! We also enjoyed the burritos which were pretty huge and way more tasty than any competitor's burrito. Service was friendly and professional and parking was a snap, right across the street! We look forward to returning! Life is good with Korean nachos! read more

Nice restaurant close to downtown. The staff is your friendly and they welcome you as soon as you walk in. The restaurant itself is very clean. There are both multiple options for drinks, such as a cooler with drinks as well as a fountain machine. The menu is digital, which is very easy to read and clean as well. We had our order within 15 minutes. It was made fresh and very delicious. read more

I really liked this place. I happened to be walking around in the area and it caught my eye. I guess I would describe it as an Asian spin on Mexican food but authentic and one of a kind. I ordered the taco plate with tofu and the OG kimchi, one of their staple dishes. The cashier was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in explaining what everything was and offering suggestions for what I should get. The atmosphere has a cute naturesque vibe to it. I'm sure it's really packed in the summer. I believe they may have outside seating as well but don't quote me on that. The food also came out fast and they were slammed with to go orders and people who were dining in. Loved every bit of my time here. Would definitely come back and try other things on their menu. read more

There was absolutely no love in this food. It was a cold day and their door was flapping open, the staff did not care.

I absolutely love soul taco for their Gogi bowls. I came in on a Sunday night and it was extremely busy. The wait was crazy long and the cashier ended up asking if the patrons standing in line could just order using the kiosk, no problem. I ordered my food, Gigi bowl, chicken egg fried HARD and scrambled. received it about 10 minutes later. I paid for a scramble, fried hard egg and got the over easy egg instead. I was bummed because I don't eat eggs so when I do eat it, I needed it cooked how I can tolerate it. The next day, I called up and explained what happened and the young lady over the phone offered me a full refund for the mistake. I was so grateful I didn't have to fight to prove that my order was wrong! I will definitely be back. read more

Literally always forget my side order of queso. So frustrating. Food is good otherwise.

Overall a solid place. I got the elote quesadilla and it was definitely something to try at least once!

I saw a lot of people picking up to go and think that this is a great quick meal for a busy or casual night!elote quesadilla read more

HOLY MOTHER OF PEARL!!!!! Korean and Mexican food had a long talk, queen to queen, about how to maximize their joint slay and this is it right here. I had a kimchi burrito a couple years ago and it was heavenly, but I've never found a K&M fusion place since. Seoul Taco puts that place to shame. When I first took a bite of the Gogi and Waffles I was convulsing, seeing angels, and creaming my shorts. The taste was immaculate, like nothing I had ever eaten before. Every bite was better than the last. I couldn't stop, I inhaled every last bite. The Crunchwrap was yum, but not my fav. The Burrito was delicious and busting at the seems, but nothing will amount to the taste of that Gogi. If I lived in a city with Seoul Taco I would probably eat this every day, get morbidly obese, and die of a heart attack, but in the end it would be worth it. Sweet baby Jesus would it be worth it (It's a very popular place so do expect a bit of a wait) read more

Excellent food, great service. Kimchi was slightly bland but other than that, we really enjoyed the burrito and bogi bowl with bulgogi.

I called the store right after I placed my order, and asked the guy on the phone to have more lettuce/greens added to my burrito and the guy said no problem (theres no way to add this in the doordash app) and then my burrito arrives with barely any lettuce/greens and i also ordered extra met and again there barely was any so overall id say its a very cheap restaurant to go to for sure and that about any other casual food chain would be more cost effective and a better experience and taste. read more

First time trying Seoul Taco and I was so surprised at how good it was! We ordered pickup so I don't have any experience inside the restaurant but ordering and pickup was very easy. The burrito was amazing! We ate it so fast and wished we had more. I ordered the churros but when I got there they said they didn't have any and refunded me. Bummer because they looked good online! read more

Got the spicy pork burrito and chicken tacos to go. Loved the spicy pork burrito! It was tasty, filling, and did not disappoint. The chicken tacos were ok. They were spicier than I expected and it probably is not a great item to get to go because it looks like a mess if it gets shifted around. The burrito was better than the tacos. Curbside parking was available in front of the store. The food was ready very quickly! Great stop for Korean-Mexican food. read more

Great fast, casual spot! The counter clerk was super friendly and I appreciated that she double checked the order accuracy. Had the chicken tacos and sweet potato fries. The tacos had great flavor, a little bit zesty but not overpowering when paired with the bulgogi flavor. The sweet potato fries were yummy! The texture was nice and crispy and they were seasoned a little differently than what I typically get for sweet potato fries. Would come here again for a quick bite! read more

I (finally) made it to a Seoul Taco. I loved the idea of fast casual Taco Bell meets Korean spot when I heard about it, but it admittedly took me forever to pop in. The munchwrap is a take on the Taco Bell Crunchwrap supreme and it was everything I thought it would be and more. The beans, kimchi, and chicken, along with the crunch from the tostada shell made a unique dish familiar. I enjoyed it with and without the dipping sauce. I expected the side of chips and queso to be similar to that of Taco Bell's but it was huge! More than enough for the group of four I was with to share. The chips were fresh and lightly seasoned and the queso blanco was rich and creamy, but not too rich if you know what I mean. It was also not too thick or too thin. Nothing spectacular or ground breaking, but still tasty! The elote quesadilla was a special. I enjoyed it as something different and the spicy flavor on top was delightful. However, I would have preferred the elote and flavor without the tortilla. Overall a really great spot for fast casual that is much higher quality than the average with unique options that are sure to please! read more

My first time at this location, and was a bit let down. Don't get me wrong, the food was great. Seana ordered the Munchwrap which was just STUPENDOUS! We shared some Kimchi Slaw and an order of dumplings. I got my normal Gogi Bowl with brown rice and spicy pork, and none of these items disappointed. But we got there shortly after they'd opened, and the floors looked like they hadn't been swept or mopped in quite some time. Also, we ordered a fountain drink, intending to mix unsweetened ice tea with lemonade. They were out of BOTH, and knew it (when Seana asked, they said, "oh yeah, we're out of those."), so WHY didn't they have it posted??? Seoul Taco hasn't lost me as a customer, but I think this particular location has. read more

There are certain restaurants in St. Louis that are ubiquitous with the foodie scene in the city. It's so easy to forget the bold flavors of Seoul Taco were born in the back of a food truck. Now they have multiple locations in both St. Louis and Chicago. And you know why? Because their food is SO good! The original brick and mortar Seoul Taco location in the Delmar Loop was always such a pain for me to get to, so I actually never had food from that location. When they announced that this Asian-fusion eatery was opening a location in the brand new apartment complex in the Grove, my mouth watered. While you can still find their food around town at food truck rallies, the idea of it being so easily accessible on Manchester was the stuff dreams are made of! Ordering from Seoul Taco is so simple. Their online system is a breeze. We actually ordered inside with an incredibly pleasant employee though. The food was hot and ready in just a few minutes. (Ordering and getting fresh food is really something that I've missed during the pandemic.) Because it was a Friday in Lent, we went with completely meatless options. My boyfriend chose the tofu quesadilla and I went for the burrito (we had a coupon for a free taco too!) The quesadilla was full of gooey cheese and oozed flavor. The rice in my burrito packed a spicy punch, but wasn't unenjoyable. Loved the fried rice inside the burrito, but would have liked there to be a little more sauce. Overall the Asian-fusion meets Mexican flavors were a unique combo for our Friday feast. read more

The thing about this local chain that impresses the heck out of me is that the employees always are so friendly, helpful, and conscientious. So much better that the big chains. The food is awesome, lots of good options and the prices are very reasonable. The other thing? The playlist. I've said it before ( my review of the Olive Blvd location), but this is the hidden gem about this place is the playlist. Classic hip hop at just the right volume level. Clean, so it's kid safe and the grooves are REAL! Love this place. read more
