This place is notable for its coal grill and steel hood (at your table!) setup. Most of the entrees are $18+ you should know that some moving of meat on the grille is required :D fun stuff.

The banchan selection is straightforward and old-fashioned, because the real point here is to eat the barbecue as ssam. Read more

Barbecue is hardly an American creation. At this Koreatown restaurant, specialties such as bool kogi and kalbi kui are grilled on charcoal-burning braziers in the center of your table Read more

If you are new to this sort of thing, a waitress will return periodically to make sure that your ignorance of cooking times injures the meat no more than absolutely necessary. Read more

Come with massive appetite. The meats are amazing. So is the rest.

delicious but you end up smelling like smoked meat after! So take a shower if you plan on going out after!

The tongue is sliced thin and tender. Go around 2:30 or so and it won't be crowded. Free parking in adjacent lot.

ask for a plastic bag for your jacket/outerwear so you don't have to clean it later.

Soot Bull Jeep = the best Korean BBQ in LA, maybe all of the US! NOTE: Because they/you use real charcoal to cook the food.. your clothes will smell like a campfire for weeks.

Unless you can speak Korean, you will ask for water more than once if you actually get it.

They've gone downhill. Decent food at expensive prices. Hit any of the AYCE places around ktown. You're welcome.

Real coals are used to grill the proteins.

Don't eat for the entire day, then GORGE. So good, so worth the starvation

맛 있다. 고기는 다른것 보단 양념갈비가 맛 있다. 소금구이는 비추!! 고추장찌게가 아주 좋다
