    Bibimbap and Oyakodon
    Anh P.

    I don't recommend this place if you want good Korean food. I came here Saturday 6:30pm and they were busy. The restaurant has a modern look and young vibe with self serving style. Seems they were short staff. The girl at the front was busy preparing and customers had to wait until she was available to order. There is a small tablet on the side to order food as well, but people barely noticed it since there is no sign for it. Food took a while to be ready. And option for regular chicken on all meals were sold out. I ordered bibimbap with popcorn chicken, and turn out it was like frozen popcorn chicken and nothing special. And it is first time I saw bibimbap with lettuce. And the sauce was barely covered anything, not saying if I need to mix with rice. The tteokbokki was the only thing that decent. Desert is ok. I would go somewhere else if I want Korean food

    We came here because the photos look great! But we were fooled....The food and drinks were not all that great. Drinks were way too sweet. the bibimbap was not very edible because the beef and rice were both very dry - it does not feel like it was made fresh. the ttokboki was sweet and super spicy. The dessert was pre-made.... Very very sweet. I guess the only thing that was good was ramen, but it's really hard to make instant noodles bad lol.

    Points to this restaurant for being very affordable - only $12 for a meal including a bowl of vegan ramen, drink and a side of tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes). I would shave a point off just because the ramen was served way too hot to eat and the tteokbokki were too spicy (although it was labeled as such on the menu, so maybe I should have just known better). The service was prompt and courteous, and the place has a very nice interior ambience with Asian pop music and neon galore. Despite the unassuming location in a suburban plaza, this is a solid restaurant, definitely worth a visit for some cheap and tasty eats (with good vegan options).

    Chicken Cutlet with Curry Rice Bowl
    Lam B.

    Seoul Drop offers generous portions of Asian comfort food at a reasonable price. It's a great spot if you're looking for something hearty and filling. *Chicken Cutlet Curry Rice Bowl: came with a choice of sauce and a side. I went with the chipotle sauce and tteokbokki. The dish included a big bed of white rice, two crispy chicken cutlets, and a scoop of corn. The curry was mild and savory with tender chunks of potatoes and carrots. It was well-seasoned on its own, so the extra sauce wasn't really necessary. I wished there had been something tangy or sour to cut through the richness of the dish. *Tteokbokki: the rice cakes were perfectly chewy and the gochujang sauce brought a nice level of heat. The onions added a touch of sweetness and soaked up the spice really well. *Biscoff Tiramisu: the cream had a strong Biscoff flavor, which was nice, but the texture was a bit grainy. The ladyfingers weren't soaked, so the dessert was dry. I think even a light espresso or milk soak would have helped balance it out. The portion size was generous, though I didn't end up finishing it because of the texture. Seoul Drop delivers on comfort and portion size. I found the Korean-inspired dishes to be the best. Some of the other items were still tasty, just not quite as refined. A spot worth trying if you're in the mood for bold flavors and big servings.

    I've been wanting to visit Seoul Drop for so long. I can happily say it was worth the wait. Seoul Drop offers an exciting fast casual dining experience. The service is quick. We ordered several items and waited less than 10 mins for our buzzer to go off. The dining room is very spacious with various seating options (tables, booths, high tops) The music and decor is very fun and cute. The decor even offers two photo op areas. Loved the food. Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious. My favorite items were the chicken gyoza (a limited time offering, matcha cream strawberry drink, teddy bear cheesecake, and chicken teriyaki rice bowl. The rice bowl was huge allowing me to take the remainder home. Seoul drop has a large menu and there are several items I'd like to come back and try.

    Spectacular food! Not intimidating at all if you're not experienced with Korean food names. There are photos on their site and one screen in the restaurant, extensive descriptions, and the staff is very friendly and helpful too! We came all the way from Buffalo to eat here and weren't disappointed!

    Bulgogi Beef Kimbap
    Mia T.

    Mostly good experience in terms of service, cleanliness, and my drink. I ordered the pumpkin cream chai which tasted just like pumpkin pie. I appreciated this over the typical pumpkin spice flavor. The drink was a reasonable size too. The bulgogi Kim bap was nothing to write home about. I typically love bulgolgi for its juicy flavor which this bulgogi lacked. I do think it's a good portion for the size but the meat was dry and not super flavorful. I would come back for drinks and to try the desserts as they looked cute!

    Fast casual Korean food in Brighton? Great idea. Combine that with a nicely renovated space and relaxed open atmosphere, even better. They have a variety of food items and drinks. It's a place where I can get some work done on the laptop, while sipping on a strawberry matcha latte and snacking on some kimbab. Low key and almost cafe-like. Food-wise it's been good. Simple presentation, not overly salty and "healthier" portions. Perfect for a quick bite, take out or a lighter meal. If I were hungry or had time to really sit down, I would probably go to a different Korean restaurant with bigger portions and banchan (Korean appetizer dishes). Don't let me dissuade you from going to Seoul Drop though, because it is good for what it is - cafe / fast casual food spot as opposed to a full service restaurant.

    On our second time at Seoul Drop we came into Seoul Drop to grab some lunch and try their new bingsu! The staff is here super friendly, and the inside is gorgeous with its neon signage throughout. We ordered the chicken cutlet and a cookie butter bingsu! The chicken cutlet was perfect and so crispy! The bingsu was also very delicious, but I think it could use the addition of a sauce of some kind. It's quite pricy at $18 so definitely share it with friends! Overall, a wonderful trip!

    Chocolate bear cheesecake (tastes more like a mousse texture)
    Jan N.

    This is a great option for a quick lunch during work. There is plenty of parking, spacious seating, and the food is out quickly. Casual place where you order and pick up at the counter. We appreciated the videos of some of the dishes playing on the menu screen. This helped us to choose the spicy pork sub, which was good. The loaded bulgogi japchae noodles and chicken gyoza were a nice option without the heat. We discovered that the spicy tteokbokki sauce was great as a dip for the gyoza. The iced chai latte was a great drink to balance the flavors and cool the heat. We also tried the milk and yogurt soda which I liked, but my 4 yo did not. It reminds me of mild carbonated Yakult. There is a limited menu, but still provides a few different options. Also, check out the desserts!

    I was really excited when I heard that this place was opening. Unfortunately I was not impressed by the food. Portion size was very small and did not have much flavor at all. Meat was chewy and tasted very bland. It has a cute interior but the food did not taste like authentic Korean food and the food was very underwhelming. There's ample seating in there. You just go to the counter to order and pick up your food. The desserts look cute but I didn't try any. If you want to grab a quick bite the service is pretty fast.

    Met a friend for dinner the other night, was pleasantly surprised. Easy in and out parking in a plaza, you order at the counter and are given a buzzer for when your food is ready. The menu is not easy, but the lady at the counter was beyond nice and helpful, so easy to figure out what things to try. Both of our dishes were delicious, fresh, and hot! The desserts looked incredible so I had to take one home! lol That was delicious too. Price for both of us was less than $40.00 so for a good, hot, meal, can't go wrong. Can't wait to go back and try something else, thanks so much.

    Seoul drop is the cutest restaurant with great food! They have a good variety of options, and they are reasonably priced. I love the Bulgolgi and kimbap. The desserts are also sooo cute. I tried the chocolate cheesecake bear, and it was so good. It was like a mousse that melts in your mouth, with a delicious chocolate flavor and richness. They cook without seed oils, and as someone with lots of allergies, the menu is very allergen-friendly! The restaurant is also owned by a lovely family! I can't wait to go back and try more dishes!

During this visit, I ordered a hot pistachio latte, a small iced caramel latte with cold foam, and a slice of tiramisu. The presentation was beautiful, but the food and drinks didn't quite live up to the appearance. The iced caramel latte tasted a bit watery, which has been my experience on more than one visit, and the hot pistachio latte was just okay. The biggest disappointment was the tiramisu. It was overly soaked in coffee, didn't taste very fresh, and wasn't what I expected. One thing I really appreciated was the service. The cashier was incredibly kind and accommodating. Since I'm currently pregnant and can only have decaf coffee, she made sure my order was clearly communicated to the team, which I was very grateful for. The café itself is aesthetically beautiful, although we did have to wipe down our table because there were crumbs left from the previous guests. The seating is nice, but the chairs could be more comfortable if you plan to stay for an extended period. My only other suggestion would be to improve customer engagement at the register. On a few visits, it has felt like employees finished conversations with coworkers before helping customers. Overall, I enjoy coming to Layali because the ambiance is one of the best in Rochester. While I think the coffee and desserts could be more consistent, I'd still return to enjoy the atmosphere and give more of the menu a try.
