    Well this is my first time here and my last time! Service was poor. If you in joy cooking your own food while dinning out!! Then go for it!! No ventilation hot and stuff!! Overall pretty pricey and bad experience!!! Should have went to Bichi Burger lesson learned!!!! Never again

    Happy to create this new business on Yelp and the first to post a review! This is the only known Korean restaurant and BBQ joint in Playas de Tijuana. The flavors are definitely Korean, but the flavors are a bit muted compared to their LA or even San Diegan counterparts--yes, unfair to compare I know. The banchan were all pretty good and the kimchi soup was really good. We went with the buffet grill option. They have gas grills built into the table. The waiter walked out several times with waves of meat ranging from bulgolgi to pork belly and galbi. My son liked the bulgolgi marinade and the flavors was ok, but nothing to write home about. Looking forward to exploring the rest of their menu, especially the ramen. So happy to have a local Korean joint here!!!

    Made a reservation and still had to wait 30 min outside. Took them another 12 min to bring the drinks to the table. The place was busy but its a small room in the corner of a small shopping center. The main attraction here is the "buffet" which you grill your own food at center of the table. They asked and we said it was our first time there so they tried to explain it but couldn't understand nor hear him over the loud music and his face cover. Waited long for "add ons" that comes with the food and when we asked for them several times they finally brought them when we were almost done. THE ENSENADA LOCATION IS WAY BETTER. CANT COMPARE.

    Kimchee, onions, sweet radish, and fish cakes

    I like Korean House and will return. We came in for ramen and enjoyed it. The kimchee and onions were a really good addition. Word of advice though, the ramen is spicy!!!! Probably too spicy. The shin ramen is the least hot, rated one chili pepper, and it is spicy. The tumse is rated 2 chili peppers and our lips burned the whole time we ate it and for awhile afterwards. We really enjoy the flavor of hot food but this was uncomfortable. Just be warned, we're not being dramatic! My dining partner wishes that there was more vegetables and meat in the soup. It's broth and noodles. Anyway 4 stars for cool, clean ambiance, friendly service, and authentic Korean cuisine.

    Sura Korean Restaurant - Soon tofu with seafood

    Sura Korean Restaurant, 27451 Jefferson Ave,…read moreTemecula, CA92590. Korean food. Small family owned and operated restaurant. The food is really good here. ~ Spicy Pork and Mushroom Combo ~ Galbi with Rice & Kimchi.

    I really don't enjoy leaving negative reviews, especially for family-owned restaurants, but I also…read morefeel it's important to share an honest experience so others can make informed decisions. I came here craving soup after being sick and ordered the pork soon tofu, while my wife ordered the bulgogi. The meat in both dishes was noticeably tough and difficult to chew compared to other Korean tofu restaurants we've visited. Because I wasn't feeling well, I couldn't fully taste the food, but my wife and daughter both immediately noticed that the bulgogi tasted sour. When we brought it to the staff's attention, they kindly offered to replace the meat, so we requested teriyaki chicken instead. Unfortunately, another serving of bulgogi was brought out instead. By that point, my wife and daughter had already finished eating and gone to the car, so I simply asked for it to be boxed up. After getting home, we decided to throw it away because we didn't feel comfortable taking a chance on meat that tasted off. The side dishes also didn't seem fresh, which matched what I had seen mentioned in other reviews. While I can't say for certain what caused the sour taste, it left us without confidence in the meal. Another thing worth mentioning is that there was no air conditioning on a very hot summer day, which made it uncomfortable to enjoy a steaming bowl of soup. Also, the dishes were served on hot plates, but nothing arrived sizzling or boiling the way you would normally expect at a Korean tofu restaurant. I genuinely want local family-owned restaurants to succeed, which is why writing this review isn't easy. Every restaurant can have an off day, and hopefully that's what happened here. Unfortunately, this visit didn't meet our expectations, and based on our experience, I'd encourage others to use their own judgment when deciding to dine here.
