Here are my favorite restaurants throughout Seoul! Korean food is delicious and I canโ€™t wait for you to try it IN KOREA ๐Ÿ˜ In this guide Iโ€™ll show you the best places to try Korean food, but I also had to add in my favorite foreign food restaurants as well. If youโ€™re a foodie, Iโ€™ve got you covered ๐Ÿ˜‰ Check the description of each location because I give personal recommendations, tips on ordering, and other important notes like: *if you have to cook yourself at this restaurant or if the staff cooks for you AND *if this restaurant is a chain restaurant - meaning there might be another restaurant closer to you! ๋งŽ์ด ๋จน์–ด์š”~ ๐Ÿคค

How to eat Korean BBQ!

Korean barbecue is a MUST if youโ€™re coming to visit Seoul! However, though it is delicious, the experience can be very complicated. There are so many tips you should know before you walk in the restaurant yourself so I added this video from my YouTube channel so youโ€™re extra prepared~

My favorite all you can eat BBQ in Korea for ONLY their brisket! I donโ€™t recommend getting drinks here, theyโ€™re a bit expensive, but cheap brisket is hard to find in Korea so I come here for that and their lettuce wraps (check my YouTube video to see a complete guide on how to eat at Korean BBQs in Korea)! When you enter, theyโ€™ll ask which set you would like. Just get set A for the brisket! Everything is self-serve, so make sure you go to the refrigerators to get your water and more dishes. If youโ€™re a messy eater, grab a red apron near the brisket freezer. If you want more soup, you can use the large, golden kettle near the rice cooker to add more broth to the bowl on your grill. I recommend you eat brisket with the sesame oil and salt combination I showed you in the YouTube video - so get that from the self-bar as well! Other notes in the YouTube video attached! โœจ Quick Notes: Only for groups Self cooking Touchscreen ordering โŒ Ordering in English (at Hongdae branch) โœ… (but this restaurant is pretty easy because the menu is on the table and you can just point at what you would like)
