2006-06-15 17:30:48   Went in for dinner. Cheerful service esp. given time of day (9pm). Servers were very attentive, polite (vs. the hostess lady at Seoul Garden). I adored the scallion pancakes here. —ChristineLeo

2006-09-18 07:29:24   I went a few months ago and had a couple great dishes. My companion had something that neither of us enjoyed, something with a black bean sauce that was a little overwhelming. Otherwise it was very good and I’ll definitely go again. And oh yeah Christine, the hostess at Seoul Garden is definitely one heck of an abrasive individual but I’ve learned to ignore her. —ZedOmega

The only complaint I have is that they didn't have bi bim bap on the menu (which is my favorite dish). I do see myself going back there in the future. —CatherineConnolly

2007-02-17 15:18:44   The first time I ate here my friends and I were moved from a front table all the way to the back of the restaurant because "we didn't have enough people in our group", service was exceptionally slow, there were no drink refills and we waited for 45 minutes for our entrees. The kimbap is good but the scallion pancakes were mushy and a little too greasy. I've learned to get my food to go instead of eating there, but maybe I just need to go earlier in the day. —SushiGirl

2007-04-16 00:55:13   one of my favorites —DesaRaeStanton

2007-06-13 07:04:33   No lunch menu. The bibimbap was miles behind Seoul Garden's. A chicken stir-fry came on a hot skillet, and was flavorful and spicy. I found some of the banchan selections to be a bit too "challenging", but that may be a good thing for many —EastSideStephen

2007-08-29 18:18:09   not quite as good as youngs but, I guess it fits the bar —MicheleGulliver

2007-10-31 13:23:07   They do offer a lunch menu now, their Soonduboo is the best. —AlexTong

2007-11-13 14:58:40   They've changed the name to Sodam now, although the big sign still says Korea House. They've improved the decor a bit since the last time I was there (about a month ago), and there seems to be more on the menu, too. The food is still great (especially the kimchi pancakes), and the service is still a bit slow. —McgMatt

2007-12-04 18:07:13   The food there was decent. However, the restaurant is set in a strange location and it felt like I was eating in a big office, which I didn't like at all. The service was okay, and the food was okay. They seem to use higher quality food than Seoul Garden, but Seoul Garden's side dishes are better in my opinion, though they could all use some improvement. —RochesterCalifornia
