Pork Bulgogi Lunch Box
Christine W.

Always love coming here with friends. I ordered the kimchi stew, which unfortunately didn't have much meat or rice cakes. But it was still delicious! It was enough for two meals for me, and the price is reasonable! ($13 for the entree, $2 for extra rice) The wait staff is always really nice. All around good vibes here! Edit: when my boyfriend and I came in at 5:30pm on a Sunday night, the service and food were both impeccable. We will likely come more often due to this! The kalbi jjhim is fantastic. The meat was very tender, and the sauce is so flavorful. The only reasons I put down four stars for service was the most recent time we visited, our servers were relatively inattentive. The atmosphere is nice, but the temperature in the restaurant is always just a little too cold. The pork bulgogi lunchbox is well worth the price! I love the way they season the bulgogi, although it is on the saltier side.

Various side dishes that come with your meal.

The Seoul Garden in Cary has a good selection of Korean food. The price is moderately high, but it is worth the extra couple of dollars. The food was fresh and not too salty. I had the galbi tang (beef rib soup). There was plenty of meat and the soup had a great flavor. There was 3 large pieces of radish in my soup, that other Korean restaurants don't usually add. However, it was still good and probably more healthy for me. There is plenty of seating. (Indoor only). There are even large tables for larger groups. The place is clean. Our server took our order and the food came out 10 to 15 minutes later. Pretty quick! There is also plenty of parking. If you are in the Raleigh or Cary area, and would like to eat Lorean food, then stop by the Seoul Garden to do just that.

As a DMV native, I've been spoiled by the variety and quality of Korean food. It took me a while to find a good Korean spot in the Cary area. FOOD I've been here twice with a group and have been able to try a variety of the dishes offered here. Some highlight dishes: bossam (especially the pork, the oyster that came with it were okay too, but nothing crazy), and the stone pot bibimbap. That being said this is still by far one of the better Korean spots in the area. The value is great too. Definitely planning on checking out their lunch menu one of these days. SERVICE The service here is a little inconsistent. The first time we came here, our server was a lady who came to check on our table, made sure all our side dishes were refilled, and overall very friendly. She was not working when we went the second time and the only times the server stopped by was when they gave us the QR, brought out of food and towards the very end when we needed the check. We were looking for some refills during the meal, but no one stopped by. The food and bill came out pretty quick. AMBIANCE You know an Asian spot is going to be GOOD when the place itself isn't all decked out. The interior is a bit run down and plain, which made me a bit hesitant at first, but once you see that much of the clientele were mostly Korean people, we knew we were in a good spot for Korean food.

Love the korean food here. Seoul Garden has great staff and great food, at a very respectable price point. There is plenty of seating in doors, and the staff is all very nice and helpful. Everything we ordered was up to standard and was very generous in portion size and the contents of the food. They did not skimp on meat or seafood, while also providing plenty of noodle. Great experience, would come again.

Menú

Just a post to let everyone know Seoul Garden is open and well! Sounds like they switched owners a few weeks ago. in case any locals were missing Korean cuisine, here's the updated menu!

Decent local place for Korean food A lot less flash than other Korean spots so it attracts a lot more Korean and oriental clients. Decent food. Good service. I like it.

Beef bulgogi, rice, and banchan delivered.
Dale D.

Galbi and Soft Tofu Seafood Soup were delicious, sticky rice perfectly cooked,, generous banchan. Very good. I recommend for quick delivery meal.

Everything that we ordered was so DELICIOUS! Not only did Jenny explain the whole grill process, but the whole staff was super friendly and very attentive. I also LOVED the robot server they had; I've only seen those on videos, and to experience one in person just was truly an amazing experience. I will for sure come back and recommend people to dine here.

First time having KBBQ in North Carolina and WOW!!!. I don't know why I didn't come here sooner!…read moreThe food was great, not out of this world but good for AYCE. Lots of different options, my favorite was the different pork bellies and the LA Galbi was great as well. Also really enjoyed the little side dishes (반찬). I really love the interior, they seem to have a good ventilation system for each table with a grill, there's a bar and the tables are fairly huge. Not super loud either, each table is spaced apart thoughtfully. Now, I have to praise the staff here for their AWESOME customer service. If I could give a 100/5 for customer service alone, I would. This was like Michelin-level elite service. They refilled my drink, changed my grill for clean one, brought over sauces, Really loved the energy and personality of all the staff that I interacted with :). Also my main hostess, Samantha I think was her name, was next level service like better than some of the Michelin star restaurants that I have been to. She assisted in grilling some of the meats whenever she brought them over and it was outstanding, I was just awestruck by the service provided this evening.

Soul Garden is tucked into a strip mall, and on a Monday at lunchtime, the restaurant was…read moresurprisingly busy. I came with two colleagues, and we were seated with no wait. The menus were confusing and looked as though the prices had been altered or covered over with both white and black ink. It made figuring out the cost of the dishes unnecessarily difficult. I ordered the beef bibimbap, which was fine but not particularly memorable. The food was perfectly acceptable, though it didn't leave much of an impression. Our waitress had a notably flat affect and seemed somewhat disengaged throughout the meal. The service wasn't unpleasant, but it lacked the warmth or attentiveness that can make a casual lunch feel more inviting. Overall, Soul Garden is a perfectly serviceable spot for a quick meal, but between the confusing menus, indifferent service, and merely adequate food, I left without much reason to rush back.

Restaurant was clean, bustling with good vibes of patrons happily eating Korean food. Our waiter Paul is the best. We ordered and were brought little plates of kimchi, macaroni, etc. These were delicious. We finished them and our meals came out many of them sizzling from the hot pots. I had the spicy squid with noodles. It was the perfect slickness and I got a side of rice which I added to it, as the sauce is great to soak it up. Daughter had tofu bimbibop and she loved every mouthful. As we had told Paul we were celebrating our friends birthday, he brought out a marshmallow cookie with the plate decorated with happy birthday. Allbin all a wonderful meal with top notch service.

Water and menus were brought out and orders for appetizers were taken. As soon as the appetizers were out our entree orders were taken. Everyone had a mix of appetizers and they were all so good. I personally had the steamed edamame. I could've used a little more salt but still good. My main entree was the chicken bibimbap. They provided a few complementary sides for the table. Fish cakes, kimchi, apple salad, cucumbers and 2 others (not sure of the exact dish names. First time having fish cakes and apple salad DELICIOUS. I need it every time I come back now lol. It was a calm day, not too many people in. The space is nice and clean. The waiter was welcoming and nice. We let them know there was a birthday and they bought out a piece of cake and sang happy birthday. I paid for myself and my partner but wanted it on one check to prevent my card from being swiped twice. There's a slight language barrier so I don't think what I was saying was conveyed due to my card being swiped twice. Not a huge issue. Overall experience was great. We will be going back and maybe even trying out the karaoke room they have.

Love that there's a restaurant conveniently inside a market…read more For the restaurant, don't expect table service. There's a place to grab your own utensils and complimentary water/tea. I was good with that because the food was delicious and such good value. Shared 3 dishes between 3 people: seafood stew, ddeokboki, and spicy LA galbi. Loved all of the dishes, all delicious with substantial quantity and amount of veggies. Perhaps what stood out the most was the ddeokboki since that's the best value dish I've ever seen at any restaurant--large in quantity that doesn't shy away in the amount of mix-ins (fishcake, cabbage, green onions, etc). Definitely will be keeping this place in mind for the next time I'm in the area.

While the selection is limited, especially if you're looking for hard to find fresh produce, the restaurant has you covered for standard Asian products. Our go-to (only order) is the Korean fried chicken. The restaurant serves a whole cut-up chicken for approximately $20. If you've not experienced Korean Fried Chicken (KFC) previously, you're in for a treat. We typically order plain, as we've found (KFC) can veer too sweet for our palate - but we are definitely in the minority. The crunch factor is hard to beat. On this particular occasion we mixed, original with a flavored option. I love original/plain but did find the plain to be under seasoned and the chicken weirdly cut up. At any rate, it was still delicious and would recommend. We've tried KFC prior and would order here again, but there is a chain restaurant on radar. KFC: 3.8

I was trying to find places in the area that did dim sum and ended up seeing this place that did both dim sum AND kbbq, which I was intrigued by. You mostly order everything via tablet, and everything gets sent over pretty fast. (Shout-out to the kind and very efficient servers!) They had a great assortment of different cuts, meats, and seasonings for the kbbq and all the classic dim sum dishes. The one dish I would personally pass on is the xiao long bao (soup dumplings), only because I think the filling needed a little salt/seasoning. And the ones I would absolutely order again are the seafood pancake, curry chicken, and BBQ short rib... Actually, I would reorder just about everything we had plus some more that we missed out on! For the cherry on top, they had little ice cream cups to finish the meal. Overall, we had a wonderful time and will be returning!
