Sides of Seoul (SOS)

Authentic Korean food. Must go if you are in the St Louis area and are missing street food & open air markets. I can't wait to go back. Just posting this makes me hungry all over again. 진짜 맛있어요!!! 화이팅!!! Dine in: No Outdoor seating: No Takeout: Yes … More

I'd like to try this place again, but first impression was a bit underwhelming. Nothing was bad, but there wasn't anything that really wowed us either. We got a variety of Kimbap (Bulgolgi, Regular, Katsu) and of the 3, the bulgolgi was the best. Nothing really stood out with the other two compared to others we've had around STL. After a visit to Seoul, I fell in love with Tteok Bokki so was super excited to try this one but it too was a bit disappointing. You do get a lot for the price tho, so may be worth trying if you've never had it. Lastly, the kimchi! I'd like to try this again cuz I had mixed feelings about it as well. It's better than some I've had but there are also many better options out there.

The Korean cashier was a sweet old lady. The turnaround time is fast as it only took 10 minutes to make. The bulgogi was good, but I felt like it was missing something. The sides it came with were tasty, albeit spicy. They also have an open air cooler with lots of authentic Korean foods.
