What an amazing experience! Coming from San Diego, we weren't sure what to expect about Korean food scene in Orlando... but Surah completely blew us away. Before our main course even arrived, we were treated to the most delightful banchan, perfectly pickled radishes and peanuts in a savory soy sauce that we couldn't stop eating. Such a wonderful way to start the meal. For our main course we had the beef bulgogi and the extra spicy tofu with beef, and both were absolutely outstanding. The bulgogi was tender, smoky, and perfectly marinated, while the spicy tofu with beef packed serious heat with incredible depth of flavor- we kept going back for more even though it was fiery! Our server Christopher made the whole evening truly special. He was so warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly, he even asked how the Korean food here compared to back home in San Diego, which was such a personal and thoughtful touch. That kind of hospitality is rare and it really made us feel welcomed. If you're in Orlando and craving authentic Korean BBQ, do not sleep on Surah. It's the full package, incredible food, beautiful flavors, and service that comes straight from the heart. We will absolutely be back! read more

My wife and I had a great experience here! We met the owner, who was super friendly and told us they took over the restaurant about a year ago. He really made us feel welcome. We ordered the deluxe BBQ combo, which came with Prime Beef Ribeye, Prime Brisket, and Thin-Sliced Flower Pork Belly, plus a soybean soup. Everything was delicious! The ribeye was really tender, the pork belly was sliced just the way I like it--nice and thin--and the brisket was high quality. They also had a great variety of banchan (side dishes). I'm usually picky about kimchi, but theirs had the perfect balance of ginger, spice, saltiness, and sweetness. We also tried the Galbi Tang, which was clean, rich, and really comforting. Prices are a bit higher than some other Korean BBQ spots around Orlando, but the quality of the meat and care in preparation definitely makes it worth it. read more

5 stars! Everything we ordered was so delicious. The braised beef bone was AMAZING -- the meat was so flavorful and tender, and the potatoes inside were unbelievably good too, soft, sweet, and so comforting. The cold noodles were also excellent. The seafood tofu soup was also super fresh and flavorful. My mom literally said, "Please open a location in Chicago -- Chicago needs this place!" The service was what made the experience even more special. My mom wanted the cold noodles with soup, but I saw reviews saying the spicy cold noodles were the popular item, even though they normally don't come with soup. We almost gave up on trying it, but the waitress noticed and kindly asked the kitchen to give us a side of the spicy sauce so we could enjoy both styles. That was such a thoughtful touch and made us so happy. We took a 20-30 minute Uber ride just to come here, and honestly it was 100% worth it. Highly recommend! read more

Four of us met at Surah because we were craving Korean food to warm us up, plus it's really close by. We ordered a variety from the menu: Korean fried chicken (boneless original), hot stone pot bibimbap, regular bibimbap, seafood and tofu soup, rice cake and mandu soup with peach soju and K beer along with banchan. The 'KFC' was a hit with everyone, tender and flavorful. Everyone enjoyed their main dishes. Half of the banchan were tempting, but not all - we would have relished it some that were had daikon, potato, or bean sprouts. Overall, all the main dishes were delicious and exactly what we wanted. Service was prompt at first and then tapered off. We left around 8:30pm and there weren't many diners left. I chalked it up to the staff was cleaning up and prepping to go on a cold Sunday night. Our group likes to try new things. We will be back to this neighborhood gem! read more

Best tasting Korean food. I lived in Korea for two years many years ago and have gone to Korean restaurants ever since. There's an old Korean saying: "If two people were eating and one of them died, the other wouldn't even notice." - 둘이 먹다가 하나 죽어도 모른다. The food was THAT good! read more

Surah - Beef Bulgogi - Korean Near Me - Orlando, Florida

A huge pass. This place use to be BeeKwon and was great. I was super disappointed in the wait time and hot pot. Our waiter was super nice but it took forever for out hot pot to come out. When it did, it was just onions, bulgogi,and mushrooms, with noodles barely enough for one person. I'm not sure if they were having help/kitchen issues but I definitely would not be back. They had a few huge parties and seem to be very attentive to those patrons. $50 for hot pot and that's what was served is really sad. It's more expensive here than other places but very underwhelming. read more

Called for a reservation of 10 people. When we got there, there was some confusion with someone taking my reservation, but it was quickly sorted out. We got seated shortly after. We did family style and ordered the Korean fried chicken (one bone in and one boneless), large beef combo (Prime Beef Brisket, LA Galbi, Bulgogi) which came with rice and sides, choice of stew. I also ordered a bibimbap for myself and everything was very delicious. The chicken actually blew me away. The quality of meat was very good and felt like a solid quantity of food for our table. My wife also ordered the K Prime Beef Rib Ramen and she throughly enjoyed that as well. I will be back at this place for delicious korean bbq and nice service. read more

We're in town for a convention and were craving Korean food after an exhausting day. We found Surah and decided to give it a try and I'm so glad we did! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. My favorite was the pork mandu--lightly crispy with a flavorful filling, definitely a must-try! For my entrée, I got the brisket tofu stew and requested it mild which was the perfect spice level for me. My bf had the galbi tang and the broth was light yet packed with flavor. The service was very friendly too. We're in town for a few more days and are already planning to come back before we leave! read more

I'm not sure if I'll come back because of the price and quality of the food. Quality--galbi was cold! I can clearly tell that the dish was frozen before as inside of galbi was cold and the veggies were breaking apart and its colors being dark instead of shiny bright. Perhaps if you're going to freeze, separate by meat and sauce and don't freeze the veggies. When you get the order, put the sauce in the steamer with the meat and fresh veggies and stem for couple minutes extra. Price--I don't think the food's been priced right. It's WAY overpriced for what we're getting. Also if we're paying almost 40 bucks for a galbi, it would have been nice to get banchan refilled... also, BE AWARE you have to pay for your banchan to get refilled by the way! read more

I came to Surah and left really impressed! The standout for me was the spicy tofu stew--I honestly didn't think it would be spicy enough, but they really delivered. It had just the right kick without overwhelming the flavor. The kalbi was also memorable--thicker cut than I usually see, but still tender with a nice bit of marbling that gave it great flavor. The side dishes were plentiful and fresh, and the restaurant itself was clean and comfortable. The sweetest touch was the owner herself--she came by to chat, and even shared stories about when ATEEZ visited (twice!). It made the whole experience feel personal and warm. Everything I ordered was delicious! Best Korean food I've had in recent memory - I'd definitely come back here again. If you're looking for tasty Korean food with heart, Surah is a great choice. read more

This is a very good Korean Resturant. Love the options here and there's options for just about anyone hungry. My favorite and most unique is the port cutlet. It is so crisp; tender; and moist; it was perfectly prepared. It reminded me of my favorite cutlet place in Japan that was a hole in the wall joint. Portions are just right. Only thing I would comment on is the price as it's a bit on the higher side. Other than that; place is clean and service is good. read more

Amazing food & service at Surah. Took the college & HS kids out for lunch and I was craving this. Saw many good reviews and they did not disappoint. We were so hungry that we started tearing into the food and pictures were an afterthought. Pork fried dumplings, no picture because they were delicious and we devoured them, were up first. Fantastic, sweet and spicy KFC not spicy but very tasty. Now the mains, I've heard of army stew but never had it. This was delicious, but I don't know that I'm coming back just for it. Beef Bugolgi hot pot was PHENOMENAL, really recommend this. Asked the kids for the star rating? 5 out of 5, I think that tells it all right there. Love the ambiance of the place and looking forward to my next trip back! read more

The service was amazing with us being greeted by friendly staff after arriving 1 hour before closing. Throughout our entire meal, the staff were attentive with refills on side dishes, and tips on when to add the cheese to the stew. The ambiance is modern, elegant and spacious. Let's start with the side dishes, amazing! The salad comes with a tasty little shrimp, the kimchi radish were perfectly tender with a strong kimchi flavor, and the fish cakes had just the right texture and fish taste. The Korean Army Stew was nothing short of impeccable! We've gone to plenty of Korean restaurants and this is the single best Korean dish we've ever had of any restaurant. All of the meats tasted exactly how they should with distinct and delectable flavors and a perfect cook. The staff helped us cook the noodles to just the right texture. But the best part of this dish was the sauce which was full of creamy, and seasoned flavor throughout the entire pan. Amazing! We are sad we don't have such a good restaurant back in California. read more

We had heard about Surah from TikTok and knew the next time we were visiting Orlando that we would have to stop by and try it for ourselves. The food and service did not disappoint. Honestly, I've never had such fantastic service as I did here. They were so welcoming and friendly. We got the large beef combo, and were overjoyed with the quantity and especially the quality of meats and side dishes. If you've never gone to a Korean BBQ before, they are more than willing to spend the time to show you how they do it. For first-timers and veteran K-BBQ enjoyers, Surah is the place to go! read more

Beautiful and well lit place. Korean food entrees along with KBBQ is served at this place. It is definitely quality over quantity but well worth the price. Service is quick and food may take about 10 minutes after ordering. Best Korean food that I have tried compared from all of Orlando. read more

Surah - Water for serving in the table. - Korean Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Checked this place out from Yelp reviews. Located in Dr Phillips by Sage Dental Plaza. PRICEY Korean Restaurant!! Empty inside no customers and I wondered why its 4-5 stars yet empty eatery? This would been a 5 stars for the taste of the food alone but service and PRICE is why I deducted the stars. $35.99 for 3 slabs of Galbi that is cut to pieces. YES 3 SLABS. How do I know that? Each galbi rib has 3 bones. Ordered the Galbi because they NO LONGER SERVE BENTO BOX plates. The sizzling hot plate came with the stacks of galbi meats sitting on top on white onions. The galbi is toped with green onions. It smelled good and looking at the portion I already knew I will still be hungry. The galbi was sliced up to pcs and it was a total of 3 slabs if you pieced the meats together LOL The ban chan - Let's talk about it. For $35.99 GALBI only you would expect good portions on the ban chan sides. NOPE. They offered a PIECE of tofu a PIECE of rolled omelet and 3-4 little pcs of broccoli small ones at that. I did not want spicy sides so the total sides u get is 4 sides and "sample" sized. The lady said after 2 refills each side is $1.50 each. Wow you are charging $1.50 for 1 small pc of tofu or rolled omelet? This is an empty restaurant so the service you would expect fast and on top of it - Nope you barely saw the server. The Korean Shave Ice looked good - Opted for Mango and it was a sherbet sorbet not ice cream. This was $14.99. It had shaved ice, diced up fruits and mini mochi bits, syrups and a mango sorbet on top on a pedestal glass bowl cup. It was a refreshing dessert. I would not consider coming back here due to price and portion and lack of service. read more

This place was surprisingly good. Coming from NYC and California when we have tried the Asian food on past visits to Orlando, it was a little bit scary. However, this place is a huge exception, and I give it five stars. First, the food is actually authentic unlike the other Asian food in Orlando. We had the bibimbap, soon do bu jigae, pa jun, etc. all very solid dishes. The most unexpected thing was how great the service was. This feels like a family run restaurant where the staff are happy and actually care about their customers. I was so impressed with their hospitality! Well done Surah team! You guys are the best! read more

It's our first visit and it won't be our last. Andy and Cloe our servers were amazing. Andy went into great detail explaining the dishes to us.

We enjoyed the ambiance and really enjoyed Andy - he is a great server. Go check it out. read more

I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars!! We were looking for a lunch spot and decided to give this place a try based upon their reviews and we were not disappointed! A new owner took this establishment over back in October of last year and completely redid the restaurant. They did such an amazing job! The service is one of the best I have ever witnessed, we had wonderful people checking on us and actually took the time to help with cooking the BBQ we had. The food was stellar!! Every bite was better than the last - there wasn't a bad bite the entire meal! I love the ambience of the restaurant, it's so clean and modern. We will definitely be back! You should totally try this place, you will not be disappointed! read more

I've visited Surah multiple times. The food is always fresh and flavorful. The staff members are super friendly and helpful. I feel welcomed every time I visit. My favorite thing so far is the spicy stir-fried pork but everything I've tried has been delicious. I would absolutely recommend Surah as a great place to dine. I hope you'll stop by to support them! Thank you to the team at Surah! read more

Wow! It's like being back in K-Town in NYC!! Awesome welcome and service by Andy. Airy high ceilings ambiance. Their initial appetizers of kimchi, peanuts and fish is special (much better than having bread). The Korean Fried chicken is very tasty (and plentiful). The Pork Katsu is delicious and also plenty. All washed with a nice cold K-Soju Jinro Chamisul Fresh. Very reasonably priced. Happy evening! We will be back for the Short Ribs, lunch and Happy Hour! read more

Ambience: Modern/Minimalist and sleek yet a gentle warmth to the decor. Service: The staff was super friendly, nice and attentive without making you feel overwhelmed or neglected. Food: The Kimchi Soup was perfect. Savory and rich and just hit the spot after a long day. The chicken katsu, the batter was flakey and crispy but somehow managed to be light with the chicken being moist which was phenomenal. Stone pot rice, meat and veggies was just right and finally the Korean Ramen was elevated comfort food at its finest. I wish I can transport these guys back to North Carolina! read more

Wow, this place is one that I will definitely recommend and re-visit. Went there for my birthday and they had a nice set up with balloons, and an adorable board that said happy birthday. All hand drawn, too cute! The menu was easy to understand & service was top tier. When the food started rolling its way to the table, that's when I really got excited. Everything looked/tasted superb. Since it was a slow Thursday, they took the time to cook the BBQ for us. So kind of them. The side dishes were to 10/10, extremely tasty and savory. Overall an excellent place. 감사합니다 read more

Came here for a casual dinner after a day at the theme parks. The interior was nicely decorated and clean. The servers were quick, super friendly, and generally attentive. My husband ordered the pork katsu (9/10). Everything was so tasty but we could have used a tiny bit more sauce. Side dishes were great, they had "white" kimchi! There was a hiccup with my order- they brought me seafood stew instead of the beef stew I ordered. It took a little bit to correct the order but the staff was very apologetic and the owner even came by make things right. I wish we had a spot like this at home, but I'll definitely be back whenever we are visiting Orlando. read more

Great customer service, super clean and modern interior, and FIRE FOOD!!! What more can you ask for :) read more

This place is exactly what I was searching for. Came here after a loooooong day at universal, and I was thrilled to get something authentic. Waiters are super friendly - we had a few snafus with the soda machine with the fix happening this past week that didn't really fix it, but they were great and found a solution. Back of the house is very Korean (lol we asked if we could add rice cakes to the stew and were told that communication was a bit difficult). Very generous with the small plates, which was great. Kimchis, everything was on point. Also 20% bigger variety than other spots. Flavors are perfect re our stew and tteokbokki, spice level is enough to make you sweat but not look like a member of the Kardashian family re the lips. Would return any time I'm in Orlando. read more
