Picked up some bulgogi kimbap and ddukbokki on the way to the airport. Both pretty solid, and satisfying. No complaints, definitely better than paying excessive amounts for bad airport food! read more

Sso Yummy - a person holding a sandwich in a car - Korean Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

My favourite place for Kimbap! Fast & good service! It used to be in the HSBC's basement. Pick up only during Covid19, and they put new plastic wrap on the machine for you to touch while paying with debit/credit card :) read more

Sso Yummy - Original & Spam Kimbap - Korean Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

I got the spicy pork rice bowl and liked it a lot. Really good value- the entree comes with a small bowl of soup (I think a fish broth with thin slices of fish cake) and two taiyaki-type "waffles" filled with custard that would've been a lot better if eaten right away, but this really big portion was already good value without these additional goodies. The soup is scalding hot and the pork was also really too hot to eat so I took it home and it was delicious. read more

Review: lunch. Bottomline: small hole in the wall Korean restaurant with big tastes at a price that's pretty much unbeatable anywhere else. Atmosphere: pretty much nonexistent. Restaurant is put together with random home furniture and lighting. Restroom is extremely small and filled with boxes. You get your own drinks from a cooler. Waitress was very friendly though. Word of advice, don't bring your first date here. Food: we ordered the kimbap combo, the pork bulgogi with rice, and the rice cake noodle. Everything was phenomenal and truly reflects the restaurant's name. The kimbap had a perfect balance of rice to fillings ratio and wrapped very nicely. The bulgogi was flavorful. The noodles was cooked well and spiced to my liking. Even the miso soup had hotpot style fish balls to create more texture. Best of all, they were all quite authentic. Value: simply amazing considering the food they dish out. This is the place to have cheap but awesome Korean food. Portions were very generous as well. Encore? Definitely when I'm craving some bulgogi or kimbap. read more

You know, if I wasn't a regular at Try Again bubble tea house, I wouldn't have ran into this place. As you head down the steps to go to Try Again, look to the right and you'll find So Yummy Factory! They have korean food you can pick up quickly and they have a bakery side where you can snack on their red bean cakes - yummmm I love anything red bean and red bean cakes j'adore! I felt a little shy taking photos and actually asked before I did haha - weird right?! but nah, I think it was just because they were new. Actually just the end of May if I remember correctly from what the owner told me. I picked up 20 pieces of their walnut red bean cakes that are actually shaped as walnuts - CLEVER! haha - they took me 2 days to finish. It only cost me $8.95 and they taste much better than timbits ;) how could anyone even compare! The owners seemed friendly and I'll definitely come back for more of their red bean cakes and try out their korean dishes Their open everyday except Sunday and close at 6pm. read more

This place sells Korean street food at a reasonable price. It is in Chinatown and they recently moved to a new location. It's not a fancy place but a place to go for a quick bite to eat. The server was very attentive and we got free fish cake soup with our meals. I found prices really cheap. We ordered bibimbup, soondae, small order of spicy rice cake and kimbap for 3 of us. It was more than enough and our bill was $38! read more

Nice little place. Seems like it's family ran. Quality food for the price. Great portions. Fast service. I love their custard filled fishes and pork blood sausages. One of the few Korean places that serves this dish. read more

Hugely mediocre Korean food that is likely about 2.5 stars, but just didn't lift me into wanting to rate it higher... Each dish was ok, but the appetizers were pretty well standard. When I leave a resto kinda glad to leave, it's all about finding nothing to inspire or return to. If flavours are slack and tailored to the Canadian palate, then of course both being both a foodie and knowing good Korean food helps inform one of the differences... If anyone wants good Korean (!), cross the street to Bon-ga, where their entree dishes for the most part are singularly good, but leave this NOT 'sso yummy' alone unless you like milder accents in poor Korean food. read more

When for the first time and was surprised, very good food, fast and it's very delicious! For the price it is very good value I think. I will definitely be coming back and trying more of their dishes. Also tried some of the mini boonghbbang in both the red bean and custard and it's so good! I think this is my new favourite place! read more

Excellent kimbap! I've been addicted to Korean drama and the latest attorney woo is always eating kimbap so I had a hankering. This place did not disappoint. I ordered the spam, tuna, original, spicy pork and beef kimbap along with a large order of spicy rice cakes and wow, did it ever hit the spot. I want to go back already!! read more

I've never had taiyaki. It's my lady's favourite Japanese treat, and turns out that Koreans have the same thing. This little shop is situated in a small mall setting in China town. Only place we know of that sells this treat. Red bean filling? Yup. 5 for $5 is a good deal. Made fresh to order, they were flaky and tasty. The red bean doesn't taste like bean, but is actually sweet and delicious. It's worth the trip and a great addition to anyone's belly. read more

I loved this place! Great food, great price and the nicest staff! Too bad I don't live in Calgary because I already miss the food!

My go to Korean spot when I crave Kimbap! The couple who were working there are very sweet. I would assume they are also the owners.

Nice friendly staff. Had their rice cakes, beef bimbibap, tuna bimbibap, yummy ramyan, and combo kimbap, all very tasty. Thought the tuna would be sushi type raw tuna, but it was like tuna salad, like you put on a sandwich, but it was surprisingly tasty. read more

small restaurant, super cozy & i used to come here when it was only a small kart inside a small building. now they have their own small restaurant and the food is still amazing as it was before! the food takes a while to cook, but it's because they really make sure it has good quality. the spicy rice cakes are sooooo chewy and soft, there's no hard centre and the sauce is just the right amount of spicy. the rice cakes is what i always come here for, theyre so delicious. I got mine as takeout and they don't skimp out on the portion! they fill it up to the very top!! super kind customer service that values customers who are patient while they make their food (even though it only takes about 5-10 minutes). super sweet workers! read more

Oh my gosh, I love this place! They're recently moved to a bigger location and added more to their menu and I'm not complaining. I love everything! read more

Definitely not an authentic Korean place. Something of imitation. I am sorry but I was simply appalled by the whole boong-uh-ppang situation. I like that it's always been open throughout the whole pandemic situation hence the 3 stars. But definitely, not my favourite place. read more

Small family ran business. Been coming here for a few years for their kimbap and so far, I haven't found any other place (besides my high school friend's Korean mom) that could rival their rolls. Great prices and great flavors. Don't come here expecting anything boiling in cast iron pots, they do smaller/korean "fast food" style items. I am a big fan of their original, spam, beef kimbaps but I wouldn't be disappointed with any of their other rolls either. Their blood sausage is good, but an acquired taste for sure. Overall, for the price and what you're given, really can't be beat. read more

This place is a gem! Street style Korean food/snacks. A family run restaurant, cash only. Quite small in an obscure location, but I get something from this place every time I'm in the area because everything is so reasonably priced and goddamn delicious! read more

A really cute place with great food for a reasonable prices. Their portions are pretty big and the food tastes great. I love the beef kimbap and spicy pork bulgogi with rice. I love their Boongabang (fish shaped pastries filled with custard or red bean; taiyaki in Japanese) and from what I know, is the only place to get them in Calgary (please tell me if there's another place to get these in Calgary!). In general this place is amazing and definitely worth a shot. read more

Love this place! Authentic tasting kimbap and teokbokki, great for a quick lunch. Takes me back to the small street style stalls that Korea is flooded with. read more

Rice cakes are amazing. its chewy and a bit spicy and the flavour is perfect. i have tried many places before and usually the rice cakes are way to soft. Gimbap/Kimbap is very good. they also give a small bowl a soup which is very nice. If you like red bean then you should try the red bean filled fish cakes. read more

Since I live pretty far north, I rarely make trips further than downtown. So if I am coming up from downtown or the deep south, I will forfeit Deerfoot Trail to make a detour to Chinatown for SooYummy. The shop is located in the same building as the HSBC bank and is also home to Try Again, Diamond Bakery, a Chinese medicine shop, butcher shop, and a hair salon. SooYummy has a small menu featuring Korean snacks like kimbap, hodo gwaja (red bean and walnut filled cake balls?), fish shaped cakes with red bean paste, rice cakes, soondae, etc. I usually get the original kimbap and 20 piece of hodo gwaja (10 for me during the commute back home and 10 for my family to fight over lol). Everything is reasonably priced and it is the place I go to for my Korean food fix (since I'm a vegetarian and most places are BBQ or has seafood in the dishes). Like most Chinatown establishments, cash is king, so bring enough, enough for a couple bowl cakes and egg tarts at Diamond Bakery next door, too ;) read more

Everything I've had from here was delicious. I've tried everything except the soondae. Very nice owners too. They are a cash only place though so keep that in mind. read more
