Dolsot is authentic Korean with even the veggie from Korea we rarely see in the states Kalbi good size Kids love dukk gook Seafood pancake crispy How did I not have a review earlier? I go here wherever I want my local Korean fix and don't want to deal with traffic to Beaverton read more

The space is very casual kind of bar-like place. Really cute decorations with a full bar. Self-service water. Plenty of outdoor seating as well. We ordered Japchae, plain Korean fried chicken, yangnyeom (spicy) fried chicken, and Yukgaejang. We loved the Japchae and both fried chicken. Super crispy juicy and flavorful chickens. The noodles tasted like beef bulgogi in the best way. I was a bit disappointed in the yukgaejiang. That's my favorite soup and it was a bit sweet. I didn't expect the sweet. Plus the beef was sliced beef and not shredded beef. If we are in this area again, we will be back. But maybe skip the soup next time. Stick to the yummy chicken and japchae! read more

Great tofu, reminds me of home. The service was exceptional and the vibe is great. Can't wait to return. read more

Fresh and tasty Korean food. Not the most authentic but overall still a good place for delicious dishes. Prices are on the higher end too. I did like the flavors of both the Chicken and Pork Stirfry. They're decently generous on the protein. Inside is super clean and pretty. Staffs were also friendly. read more

I got the bibimbap with beef. The banchan was cooked perfectly and overall I was pleasantly surprised with how good it was. With all the toppings, gochugaru and soybean the bowl was very tasty, BUT, 4 stars because everything was slightly under-seasoned. If the banchan and meat were seasoned better with slightly more sesame oil, sesame seeds and slightly more salt/sugar where necessary, it would've been an amazing bowl! For now just ok, but add a little more seasoning in the banchan and meat and it has potential! read more

You need to taste your food before serving your guests. You can't make beef soon do boo with a chunk of ground beef!!! That is unacceptable read more

Sool Korean Kitchen - Soft tofu soup. " beef" unbelievable.... - Korean Near Me - Lake Oswego, Oregon

This was our second time here and while the food is good, hubby was ready to leave after waiting almost ten minutes to be seated. It seems like there were only two people working so the server, who I think is the owner, was in the back and had no idea we arrived. Still a great spot for Korean food and a cute bar. I decided to try something I've never had before that looked similar to my grandmother's mandoo kooksoo. It was Tteok Manduguk. Similar but with Korean rice cakes in it. Hubby had beef bulgogi. Both were good as we expected. read more

More More More! Living in Lake Oswego has taught me there is no such thing is great late night food, until Sool which is open till 2am. This delicious amazing menu restaurant is stuck in poorly designed Mercado grove but push in, plenty of parking and worth the stop. Great immediate service, order at front or take a seat. Plenty of drink options available and the star of the show is the quality mouth watering food! read more

Sool Korean Kitchen - Korean sides, and some entrees - Korean Near Me - Lake Oswego, Oregon

Came here as I was passing by the area and was craving some korean food. The food is good and there is a solid selection of more pub like dishes. Got the galbi, japchae, seafood pancake, and soondubu jigae. I enjoyed all the foods and from what I heard about the tofu soup- it was delicous. The seafood pancake was crispy and full of different proteins. The galbi was flavorful and juicy. Although the food did take a little time to come out, it was worth the wait. The water is self serve in the front and the staff were really nice. This location is more like casual dining and a great place to chat with some friends while snacking. There is indoor and outdoor seating, so this place is pet friendly! (+1 for me) Although I have tried more flavorful versions of these dishes in CA, if I am in the area I would come here for Korean food again. It has many more menu items I would love to try. read more

Whenever I travel, I enjoy eating Asian food because there's vegetables involved and rice. To taste a variety of items, my buddy and I ordered: Je Yuk Bokkem + rice - spicy stir-fried pork and kimchi, very tasty and not spicy Soon Tofu with vegetables + rice - spicy and hot soft tofu soup Korean Fried Chicken Wings - crunchy and tasty A selection of Banchans While I am used to larger portions for the price in CA, the portions kept me from over eating. Service was friendly and pleasant. Water was self-serve. read more

The food was good, and I appreciated how different the offerings were from what I usually eat and the amount of variety offered. I ordered two items because I was starved. The first was the Korean fried chicken wings, and they were delicious. The soon tofu soup was next, and it was the spiciest thing I have ever had and equally flavorful. My sinuses are still running. My parents loved their dishes as well. We were served multiple small cups with various pickled veggies and great sauces. The service was excellent, and the two men running the restaurant were calm and polite. I felt we were cared for from the moment we entered the restaurant. The service was fast and the food arrived quickly. The ambiance was stimulating as they were playing techno music. The aesthetic was almost industrial, with decent seating inside and out. The restaurant is roughly a three-minute drive from my house. We will be back. read more

july 11, First time visit and service is not too good. I had a beef bulgogi and was yum and portion is good too !! I will go back when I can

Food: The food here is delicious! I got the spicy ramen, oden tang, and kimchi pancake. Everything hit the spot but I really reccomend the kimchi pancake. It was super crispy. I've had a lot of korean food before and this place makes it well. Service: Service here is very friendly and nice. Justin and Ryan are very nice and welcoming. Ambiance: Come here if you're looking for a good time. They have drinks, good vibes, and delicious food. read more

Really incredible food in an inviting atmosphere. Food options are fun to explore -- the experience is as great as the flavors! A hidden surprise in the suburbs. Get any Bibimbap if you're dining in. Spring rolls are good but more similar to any other place. Nonalcoholic beverage options need an upgrade. read more

It's a little spendier than I anticipated but it sure was good! The server seated us immediately a recommended the savory pancake, which was my favorite thing. I had the Bulgolgi bowl; kiddo had the Tteokbokki (which he loved) and hubs got some soup/ stew that smelled wonderful. We were all pleased with our food and had a nice time. read more

i was blown away by the food here! the teokbokki had such a satisfying texture and i loveddddd the cheese on top. the $1 to add it was worth it. this was definitely my favorite dish. we also got the soondubu (not pictured) which was very flavorful and perfect for the weather. the crispy bossam i would not recommend it. i love all the veggies that came with it, but the pork was very dry. i prefer steamed bossam to this. the space is very cute. it's like a casual bar environment. this would be a nice place to catch up with friends and have drinks over a delicious meal. i would totally come back here! read more

My husband and I recently went out to dinner at Sool Korean Kitchen! We're so happy about this new restaurant in Lake Oswego! The food came out quick and was wonderfully flavored. The banchan (free sides) were great, and I thought the kimchi especially stood out. The tteokbokki with the cheese on top was some of the best I've had in Portland. The rice cakes were perfectly cooked. You can easily share dishes family style to try out multiple things. We'll definitely be back! read more

This was a "first foray" into Korean cooking. I had the KFC Wings, the Sutbul Beef BBQ, and the Cabernet. The wings were yummy and well-prepared. The Sutbul lettuce wraps were great (so tender and flavorful), and I would recommend them wholeheartedly. They were accompanied by a variety of delicious side dishes. The Cabernet was a pleasing choice. for this meal. The service was friendly and efficient. The atmosphere had a muted sports-bar vibe, but it was a good family-friendly spot. The prices were high-ish, in keeping with the times. read more

Je Yu Bokkeum is a Top 5 dish in all of greater Portland. So much flavor. The perfect amount of spiciness. I come here to eat epic meals, chat w Ryan the owner and watch Giants baseball. Great draft selection. Sunriver Hef and Viciois Mosquito IPA both hit Easily one of the better places in Lake Oswego. read more

Food was very tasty. Had the Bulgogi beef and spicy chicken along with appetizers of potstickers and spring rolls. I suspect the potstickers and spring rolls were previously frozen or purchased premade (wouldn't recommend). The main course dishes were very good and had very good flavor. Ambiance was nice and service was good. They appeared to have a very nice selection of Soju and other bar choices which we did not sample. Set your financial expectations that it'll be $100 plus for two people out the door. But anymore, that seems to be the case with any table service restaurant experience in the area. I'm sure the rent is extremely high there as this "mixed use" location tends to eat restaurants (pun intended). Pricing and non-homemade appetizers are my only reasons for deducting one star. I guess it's off to the food carts for this cheap guy. read more

I came here for the second time last week. First time we ate there, this time was take out. I really liked everything we ate. The green onion pancake was the best thing though! Saucey fried chicken wings are delicious, pork bulgogi was amazing... it all was. They don't do their ramen to go so next time I will eat in because it looks amazing. The service is good and friendly. It is a little echoey inside but that isn't a game changer for eating a meal. read more

The ambience and the food weren't great. I was excited after I tried the co-sister's soul, Korean food from my food cart in Portland. I thought I just liked the Korean food menu. But I don't think I'll be going back. Definitely not. I left still hungry and I couldn't get out of there fast enough. It's very cold and standstill and there's not a lot of options or appetizers if you want to do happy hour. read more

Stopped by around 9pm one evening because they are the only restaurant in the area that closes at 11pm on a weekday. Galbi tang was ok. Sutbol pork bbq was not hot. Stir-fried squid tasted stale. Rice cake dumpling soup tasted really stale! Steamed egg was on only thing on the menu that tasted great and not stale! As much as I wanted to support local business owners, they need to know how their food tastes. They need to do something to ensure food is served fresh EVERY.SINGLE.TIME whether it's at 6pm or 9pm. read more

Finally, a delicious Korean food restaurant in this area-- even better it's right down the street from me. SCORE!! Truly I cannot tell you guys how hyped I am and how often I'll be coming here from now on. The service was so kind and attentive, they really care and want you to enjoy yourself. The restaurant itself has such a nice layout, a beautiful bar, and a seat yourself quality that I really enjoy. The main star of course, is the food, which banchan and all, blew my mind! I am a frequent in the Korean food category but I feel like the Korean mama needs to come and give her stamp of approval! read more

This is a reliable go-to Korean restaurants that never disappoints. The services is impressively quick for the polished, high-quality presentation of the food. This place is an easy choice as a place to catchup with friends or just a lunch when in the area. The food quality is consistently excellent--fresh, well-balanced, and clearly made with care, my two go-to dishes is the grilled chicken or the Dolsot Bibimbap, both served with rice and Banchan (small dishes). The Dolsot Bibimbap is prepared in a hot stone bowl with adds to the presentation to the meal. They have a have a bar, so you can always order a shot and beer. The space itself adds to the experience, with both indoor and outdoor seating and TVs playing scenic videos of Korea, which is a surprisingly nice touch--especially if you've traveled there and enjoy a bit of nostalgia with your meal. I've been here multiple times with friends, and it's always the same outcome: great food, relaxed vibes, and a genuinely good time. One of those places you're happy to keep coming back to. read more

Ordered beef bulgogi and dolsot. Disappointed with small portion of rice. Rice is all gone before I can finish the beef bulgogi. Dolsot could have been more favorful as I had to ask for hoisin sauce or similar. They gave me soy. Overall it's good read more

The food is so DELISH! We accidentally went before their grand opening and were so embarrassed thinking they weren't open yet, but everyone was so accommodating and kind! They often checked on us and kept asking if everything was okay. I kept asking if it was okay that I was there, lol! The food is 10/10, everything was fresh and vibrant and just the hot/spicy I wanted in Asian food. I cannot wait to come back! read more

Hidden away off Boone's Ferry is this pretty great little Korean bistro serving up some tasty comfort food. During a recent weekday lunch, it appeared to be a one-man operation. Our host/server/chef apologized for being short handed, then proceeded to take our order, cook it up and serve it while tending to a few other tables. Lucky it wasn't too busy. We ordered a scallion pancake, which was massive, fried to a nice crisp, and came with soy sauce for dipping. For our entrees, we went with the beef bulgogi and chargrilled chicken plates, each served with rice, kimchi and array of Korean fixings. It was all satisfying and portions were big. With a bright, modern casual atmosphere, including TVs showing Korean cooking shows, this place was a winner. (4.5 stars). read more

Great scallion pancake, other food just ok. Cavernous space. Seems to be focused on offering late night bar service

I wanted to love this place, my go to Korean place (One) in Beaverton is flavorful and affordable and stands as my bench mark. At Sool lunch for two ran us $90+ and the food was just ok. We had two small dishes, and a main dish each. The food was just ok, for the price I would've expected something very amazing. read more

Just took my teen boy to Sool for dinner and we both loved it! So many good things on the menu, it was hard to decide and prices are very fair. Also, my son called the vibes "immaculate." Whether you are new to Korean food or grew up on it, you'll find so many things to love here - guaranteed. I got the dolsot bimbimbap with beef and a fried egg on top that comes in a big beautiful stone bowl with veggies and the most addictive crispy rice. Definitely let the rice cook at the bottom of the bowl for a while for extra crispness. OMG. The beef is so tender, the egg perfectly cooked, and the Banchan (little side dishes like spicy kimchee and Korean mac salad) were fantastic. Comes with spicy sauce on the side if you want to level up your spice game. Teen ordered the chicken with onions and rice in a hot pot and I think he inhaled it because he consumed it so quickly! A full, satisfying entree for $20. Next time we'll try the "KFC fried chicken" and the kalbi (beef ribs). And maybe the green onion pancake. And the tofu soup. Stop me! We also enjoyed the videos of Seoul on the wall across from us - felt a bit immersive. Our server was attentive and we enjoyed speaking with him. He told us that the place takes on a nightclub vibe later in the evenings, staying open until 2am and serving soju cocktails along with a full bar. Sweet! We'll be back soon, Sool. Gamsahamnida and glad you are here...! read more
