熟成肉真是打开我的新世界，他家是我吃过最好吃的烤五花，外酥里嫩，肉很Q弹，完全不会腻，两个人直接点他家combo不会错，combo里面有一份猪一份牛，还有杏鲍菇菠萝芝士，还配蒸蛋泡菜豆腐汤豆芽汤等等，小凉菜也很特别，包上肉一起吃真的绝了。服务员烧烤都很专业（哈哈，有看到他们员工自己在店里研究什么温度烤最好吃），店里干干净净很少油烟，推荐大家去试试。 read more

tonight went to sookdal, like the steam eggs and toufu soup. Beef and porks very yummy, meat very good quality. They give you a small paper to tell you the pork how old, how low the temperature to keep, who is the chef, so cool! The waiters help us to grill, so we don't have to grill, this service is amazing and I like they really take care the clients. I definitely will recommend this BBQ and will be back again! Parking: valet only $3, not bad. read more

We've been searching for the best KBBQ spot in KTown and this place definitely ranks up there! We ordered Combo A and got pork belly, beef brisket, soybean stew, and bread cheese. The combo prices are pretty affordable compared to similar restaurants and came with a lot of food. Before they start cooking, they take a temp test on the grill before placing the meat down which I've never seen before. They also have a sticky printout of the meat and temp. We enjoyed the quality and taste of the meat, as well as the different pickled veggie banchan. They even gave us a bean sprout soup which was really light. On the table is a printout of different variations on how to enjoy the meat like with salt or garlic oil. The bread cheese was a big surprise for us as we've never had it. It went really well with the park belly. We even ended up ordering a side of bread cheese! The servers are very attentive and checked on us frequently. read more

This newly opened Korean barbecue restaurant in Koreatown specializes in wet-aged pork belly They provided us with the pork belly specs which was so interesting and fun to know the number of days the meat had been aged and the temperature that was used in the aging process You can def tell the difference between a wet-aged and a normal pork belly The texture is more tender, chewy, and moist You have to taste it for yourself to understand We ordered Combo C ($97): * pork belly * pork shoulder * pork jowl * skirt meat * stew (choice of kimchi jjigae or dwenjang jjigae) * cheese All this was more than enough for 3 ppl - Risotto $8 The risotto was topped w/ fish roe and this thing was so creamy and packed with flavors I loved their individual tray sets which looked aesthetically good and made our meals more enjoyable My overall experience here from food to customer service was outstanding read more

One of the best pork Korean bbq here in LA. Steamed eggs are hot and fluffy. Both the pork belly and the pork collar taste absolutely fantastic with the right amount of fat. The smell can really level up your appetite. I really recommend wrapping the pork with the garlic leaves. Sauces are great. The bean sprout cold soup was surprisingly good as a complimentary. Love the taste of this place! read more

这次来 Sookdal 体验了一次非常棒的韩式烤肉，他们家的特色是湿式熟成五花肉，这款招牌肉质鲜嫩多汁，烤完之后油脂分布均匀，香气四溢。除此之外，我还尝试了牛肋、羊肉、牛肉卷，每一种肉的品质都很高，吃起来口感细腻、富有层次感，尤其是牛肋的肉香特别浓郁，搭配烤制的焦香味，让人忍不住一口接一口。 除了烤肉，我还点了一款类似黑莓红酒的韩国酒，酒体微甜，带有果香，非常适合搭配烤肉一起享用，既解腻又增添风味，让整个用餐体验更加丰富。 read more

If you're a Korean BBQ lover, Sookdal is a must-visit spot in LA's Koreatown! Their signature dish is the aged pork belly, which is absolutely next-level -- crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and perfectly marbled. What makes it even more special? Each piece of pork belly comes with its own "ID card" that shows when and where it was aged. Such a cool and unique touch that really highlights their quality and attention to detail. One of the best parts is that the staff walks you through six different ways to enjoy your pork belly. From dipping sauces and seasoning salts to creative combos like seaweed with onion or wasabi -- each bite feels like a whole new experience. Super fun and interactive! The service is top-notch -- very attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. The banchan (side dishes) are fresh and plentiful, and the overall vibe of the restaurant is clean, modern, and slightly upscale without being too pricey. read more

Parking here is a disaster.. beware of the valet. They ripped me off for ten dollars even though I ate at the restaurant . Just shady folks. As a restaurant, you can't run a business if the parking valet is hustling your customers. Just a really negative experience overall and I would not return. read more

This Korean BBQ place is amazing! Great food and service! I went with my family and my new born son, the servers were so thoughtful and friendly. The server helped cooking the meat, the meat was delicious and tender. We also ordered seafood soup and rice, really tasty! This is the restaurant we definitely will go back again! read more

Everything was great. The food was delicious and the service was attentive. The pickles were so good the 2 of us polished off two plates. Combo 2 was the perfect amount of food. Great value and outstanding experience. read more

The ribeye and pork belly were amazing! We initially ordered one of each, but we enjoyed them so much that we ended up adding another serving after finishing the first ones, lol! The marinated pork collar was good as well, and my brother really liked the steamed egg. The servers cooked the meat for us, and they definitely knew the best way to prepare it ! A nice kbbq place! Clean and cozy. I highly recommend this place if you're a carnivore like us! read more

Great change-of-pace kbbq spot! Came ~9:30 on a Sunday night and it was nearly empty. We ordered combo B which was plenty for two people. Their specialty is pork, which is a nice switch-up from more beef-heavy kbbq spots. Their pork is super high quality - lots of flavor, juicy, and a great bite without being dry. The variety of sauces and sides (garlic sauce, wasabi, pickled veggies, etc.) kept the meal fun throughout. The interior was clean and the staff members were super friendly. Not sure if it was just slow because it was a Sunday night, but this place is definitely worth checking out and deserves more business! read more

They got pretty good side dishes and good variety. I was very hyped about their pork belly since is dry aged. But very disappointed. The meat was dry and blend. I don't recommend this restaurant to anyone for pork belly tbh. There are better options. read more

Best KBBQ place specializing in pork in recent days. They do have limited beef options available. I'd love to try their seafood soybean stew next time. Highlights: - valet parking - 2nd story, but there's elevator access - we ordered the Combo C and it was plenty to feed 3. Came with choice of stew, steamed egg. - usual banchan but they have a good variety of pickled veggies! - servers are polite and skilled in cooking meat. They measure the temp of the grill before putting meat on it. Not to overly friendly either but will speak if you converse first. - vibes were calm, not too loud and not cramped together - provide specs of the pork you're eating! read more

It's been 2 days since I had their pork belly and jowl and I still can't get it out of my head. It's so good. So delicious. I dunno what I have been eating. Enough said. On the real side tho, their skirt meat has to be done right. Maybe because their pork belly and jowl are way too superior, but as one of the three meats from the combo B, i think the skirt meat somehow has to match the others. Besides that, their service and foods are amazing. Stop eating marinated kbbq. Eat some real ones read more

Huge Love the little radish and kimchi dishes here at sokdal, we had beef orders and some cheese rice, seafood soup and grilled cheese. Everything was a hit I recommended 10/10 order a pork meat cuz it was the signature meats! They are dry aged porks with little tag on their info. Superior quality! read more

Parking here was absolutely terrible. The valet was completely unprofessional and tried to charge me 10bucks even though I dined at the restaurant. It felt like a scam. The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth--not because of the food, but because of the shady parking situation. A restaurant should take responsibility for the services connected to their business. I won't be coming back. read more

My favorite kbbq place in ktown at the moment. The quality of the meat is unbeatable. The aged pork belly is a must, and pork jowl is my favorite though read more

Quality that takes me back to Korea. Usually will hit up Mun Patio, Pigya, Moobongri but this place takes #1. Meat is wet aged to perfection, and great selection of pickled sides, extra fermented kimchi. The neck meat blew me away and paired nicely with the cheese blocks. Soybean stew is a bit light but still good. Service is great and he takes the temp of the grill before grilling to ensure you get a nice sear. read more

I heard good reviews about Sookdal which has a Garden Grove location so we came to try it out tonight. We ordered the Combo B (thick pork belly, Jowl and magal-sal and cheese squares, yes cheese and it was so good!) sides came with a variety of pickled cucumbers radish paper, leaf greens and picked 나물 (radish greens) I really liked their 파무침 (green onion salad with red pepper flakes) dipping sauces included coarse salt, a vinegar soy with minced garlic and wasabi. The combo also included a choice of kimchi chigae or 된장찌개 (fermented soybean soup) we opted for the kimchi chigae and it was on point. I would totally come back for my 삼겹살 (pork belly) fix. Price is nominal and service was great! The servers help cook all the meats which is a big plus, a must try imo. read more

Probably the worst service I've had a kbbq restaurant. In the middle of ordering our server straight up walked away without a word. Ordered drinks and had to order again because it never came the first time. Would not go back. read more

Wow, I love pork than beef and was so good, sides were perfect that I feel they are serious about sides. I was gonna go Kteam bbq but wanted to try this place for a long time and I think this is my number one kbbq place now. It was my husband first time to eat yulmu kimchi(one of sides) and he was obsessed with it! We both enjoyed our dinner. read more

I went to this place with my friends. We were 4 grown ups tired of AYCE. We wanted to try something different. Servers were professional assisted with grilling the meat and handle them well. We just sat back and ate so comfortably. Kimchi noddle is must after finishing the meal. If you want fine meat and great service. You should definitely try it. read more

Their aged pork belly was by far one of the best i had in a long time. We ordered combo B, came with a choice of kimchi or bean paste soup, price around $70 thought pretty reasonable. Also gotta try their kimchi cold noodle and rissoto, yea Rissoto:) I will come just to eat rissoto for lunch :) it was that good, unexpected surprise! Good to see a new pork restaurant in k town, staffs were friendly, clean, and modern atmosphere. Definitely will be going again, read more

Great food and friendly service! The restaurant is spacious, clean, and had good ventilation so my clothes didn't smell too much like meat after eating :) We were seated quickly on a Thursday evening and the server was very attentive. The wet aged pork had nice flavor and paired perfectly with the pickled vegetables, marinated leaves, and wasabi. The risotto was a highlight for me as I've never seen that at a KBBQ restaurant before! And the cold noodles were a nice way to close out the meal. Parking is valet ($3) read more

Ok so been to pretty much all the Korean bbq places from origin to daedo to kings etc. This place has to be one of the top 3 in ktown. Their aged meat is exceptional, their side dishes are pickled and soured that go hand in hand with the meat. They got grilled cheese to compliment the savory meat. And even risotto with masago to underwhelm the buttery cheesy flavors. The kimchee stew is light and not too spicy or strong. And their service and attention to detail is amazing! I hope they keep the level of food and service. read more

Overall very good quality of pork belly and works well with all the side dishes they have! A bit overpriced for the portions I would say. Also, the rissotto dish is kind of random though, and not sure how it fits in the entire menu. read more

they refused to serve me because i was alone and would not fulfill their minimum order requirement, 2! i mentioned what i was going to order and total was equivalent to the minimum order! but they still refused! i understand if it was the busy weekends or a busy night,but they were barely serving 3-4 tables at that moment, so many open tables, monday around 7pm. this was sad since i drove like 30mins from work. I am posting this just in case if anyone wants to enjoy kbbq alone! and save ur time with sookdal! called kbbq team after, they confirmed they do 1 person during the week days! read more
