    Favorite Korean in Tulsa! Authentic dishes, delicious bonchon sides, homemade fresh kimchi, and very friendly and attentive service.

    Ordered tteokbokki, dak gangjung, spicy chicken stew and kimbap less ham. Banchan: braised potato, fish cake, pancake, cucumber, kimchi. $53.11 with an additional 3.3% charge for using a credit card. :/ The braised potato is food. The rest of the banchans were ok. Kimchi wasn't that fresh. The dak gangjung is pretty good, crispy, not spicy, mostly sweet. The kimbap isn't bad, a lot of rice. The tteokbokki is spicy and slightly sweet, not a lot of fish cake in it though. The spicy chicken stew was more sweet that spicy, meat wasn't well trimmed either. Service was good.

    If you're craving Korean food, this place hits. Is it the best I've ever had? No. But it's pretty dang close! I was excited to try this place because the reviews seemed to be positive and I was craving craving! Ordered the Nengmyun (cold noodles) and my mom gives it 4/5. She said the sauce that comes with it is a MUST. She didn't care for the meat that it came with... she says it made her top 3! My aunt always gets the galbi so I'm assuming it's good, I didn't try it. The gimbap was alright. A lot of veggies but it was too loosely wrapped for me, I like them TIGHT so they don't fall apart on me. The topokki was a bit on the watery side but it has potential. The soft tofu soup ‍‍ I'm not a tofu fan but I'm slowly starting to love soft tofu soup. IT MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH. I would get again!! AND THE PORK BULGOGI WAS DELICIOUS. 5/5 wouldn't change a dang thing! Comes with a little side of cabbage with cream like dressing and rice! The pork had so much flavor and it wasn't hard or chewy! I'd come back just for the pork! The atmosphere was very cozy, felt like a true mom & pop shop. I think the workers/owners were literally chilling and enjoying their meal next to us! WARNING: idk if they have air conditioning but they did have manual fans going back and forth so fyi for those who are food fighters!

    Seoul Bistro is a very small Korean restaurant. It's not as fancy as Mr. Kim's in downtown Tulsa. However, it's quite busy. Even though it closes at 9PM, dine in closes much earlier. I came in at 8 PM and was able to get a seat. Dine in for some reason stopped at 8:20 PM that night. They had 2 people working in the front that night so things were moving quickly. Giving the size of the place, even one person should be enough. A couple of people work in the back to bring out your food. Speaking of the food, overall it's good. Every order comes with 5 sides. A few Korean sides I love are missing though, one of which is the anchovies. I believe every order also comes with miso soup, which is okay. The Topokki is Japanese pancakes in a spicy sauce. The noodle is thick and very chewy, almost the same texture of mochi dough. It's something I wanted to try but won't get it again in the future, not really worth it. The bibimbop is rice with egg, bulgogi beef, and vegetables. It's good with the spicy sauce and thoroughly mixing it up, even better when you mix all the sides in. I feel like the dish would be better if they give the customers the option to choose how the egg is cooked. Sunny side up or a little runny egg would make the dish tastier. Overall, Seoul Bistro is a good Korean option for Korean food giving the limited Korean restaurants in Tulsa. Don't expect to be blown away by all the reviews you read. As long as you do that, you will likely enjoy the food.

    I tried their kimchi jjigae, and it was bursting with flavor. The broth was spicy and tangy, with tender tofu and pork belly that melted in my mouth. The side dishes were generous and delicious, especially the kimchi and pickled radish. It's such a comforting and satisfying meal.

    R3. Kimchi Fried Rice

    My favorite restaurant 5 years running!!! I have taken anyone I have ever known here, and I can't recommend it enough. Ps. If you get the kimchi fried rice, add a fried egg, thank me later

    Coming from Los Angeles where Korean food is pretty easy access, this place holds it own very well. It's in a very secluded plaza but I must say the food is good. I was craving Korean food, tired of eating American food and being Asian I needed my rice dosage LOL. What I ordered... I ordered Kimbap Bulgogi, galbi and soy bean paste soup. The food is pretty good and I'm overall impressed with this establishment to be able to give food Korean food in a city where the Asian American population is very small. I'm assuming this place is family owned, so the daughter upfront who took our order and her friends who charged us were very friendly. Sad to say this probably the must welcoming people I've encountered my entire stay in Tulsa for work. Service was amazing!! Like I said, this place is good and holds it down for its location. I give it 5 stars. It's not no BCD tofu house in Los Angeles but it does the work and hits the spot.

    Coming from Minnesota, where we have a good amount of Korean restaurants... Damn, Seoul Bistro was so good. Oklahoma, this is the go to spot for Korean food. We ordered all out. Korean Cold Noodles, Fried Chicken & Potatoes app, Korean Black Bean Noodles, Galbi, Kimchi Pancake, etc. Everything was damn good. This spot can compete with some of the best Korean spots in Minnesota. You can't go wrong here for Korean food.

    This place is legit! Was just visiting Tulsa and a friend recommended Seoul bistro. Much smaller and more home-y than I anticipated, which I loved. The banchan was brought out pretty quickly and were some of the biggest portions I've seen thus far when it comes to Korean in Oklahoma. Their kimchi and daikon were spot on. Following their banchan portions, the portions of the main entrees were no different. I ordered the squid stir fry which also came with rice, salad, and miso soup. The stir fry was very flavorful and fresh. Didn't really care for the salad. We also tried the soft tofu soup which was also very good. Really solid place if you're craving that authentic Korean taste!

    Seoul Bistro had been on my list for quite some time when I found myself able to make it in for lunch. The place itself is neat as a pin, clean and welcoming. Once seated, a menu and drink were quickly brought to the table. Having perused the Yelp! images from other users, I had already decided between udon and galbi, ultimately deciding on beef udon noodles, with fried shrimp for an app. The assorted sides arrived with the shrimp in remarkable time. The shrimp were good, but I suspect your run of the mill frozen shrimp like you'll get most everywhere. The beef udon was outstanding. Packed with flavor, and a great lunch-sized portion. Service was also on point, which you would expect with a smaller establishment like this. I will definitely be a frequenter as my schedule allows.

    S-2 Yukgaejang
    Spike S.

    Straying from my favorite meal F-4 Dak Gangjung , to try the S-2 Yukgaejang . It was a delicious, filling, spicy beef stew with one minor unpleasantry. The bracken fern stems were woody and fibrous. I imagine that eating an electrical extension cord would be similar in texture and chewiness. Not one of their meals I would recommend, for only this reason. My wife went with the R-1 Dolsot Bibimbap. She enjoyed the big bowl of seasoned napus leaf, soy bean sprouts, broiled radish, and carrot with bulgogi. Recommended! The kimchi served with the banchan remains rated as some of the best I have ever had. It is a clean restaurant with very good service, serving freshly prepared Korean dishes. Even with the chewy fern stems in the Yukgaejang, Seoul Bistro still holds a comfortable ranking as one of two best Korean restaurants in Tulsa, in my opinion.

Ambiance: perfect for date night. Low light setting. Clean and modern interior. Really great place to impress. Service: I had outstanding service from our waiter who has been in the industry a while. He was able to explain everything in detail...which is a lot, but fun if you're a foodie like me. Food: Since it was a date night, I balled out literally! The wife and I got the baller choice which is $125/ person. This consisted of approximately 3 appetizer items and a decent amount of cuts to put on the grill; all of which are a chef's choice. If you are looking for something new to try and enjoy a wide variety of flavor and cuisine, this is a great place to start. The fish items we had were really tasty and it was my first time trying A5 Japanese wagu. I was impressed with the quality and the cuts of meat that we were served. Many of the side items were good, but won't be for your average person. A refined palette is what may be necessary to truly enjoy or appreciate each item. All the food we had was good...however, I will say that my bill was $350. Now, I don't mind paying that kind of money if it's going to blow me away, but it didn't. I would recommend going to Mr. Kim's again and I will definitely be back, but I will be building my own entrees. Check out my photos, this is always my favorite part of doing reviews.

There are claw machines at the front and back and sketchbooks with colored pencils on every table so you can draw while waiting for your food. The service is friendly - you order at the front counter and get a buzzer that buzzes when your food is ready at the pickup counter. The boba drinks are good. They have a decent selection of milk teas and fruit drinks as well as toppings. The boba pearls are done right, freshly made so they are soft and chewy like they're supposed to be. Once I ordered popping boba on accident (honey boba on the menu) thinking it was regular boba sweetened with honey and did not like it. They graciously switched it out with regular boba for me which I truly appreciated. My one recommendation would be to adjust the sweetness level if you prefer lighter drinks. The last time I visited I forgot to ask and it was a bit on the sweet side for me. I've also ordered poke and teriyaki bowls from them before and it was ok. The food was fine, it just didn't stand out to me. I usually come here for the drinks but would give the food another try given the good service and atmosphere. They have ramen, rice bowls, and appetizers like chicken karaage and kimchi fries. Overall I'd recommend Gung Ho as a solid hangout spot that's centrally located with good drinks and plenty of food options.
