" My visit to Soju was quite satisfying. The chicken katsu was juicy and tender, perfectly coated in a crisp layer. I also had the opportunity to try their Korean BBQ, which was spot on! The only downside was that we had to wait for a table, but it was totally worth it. Our server was attentive and made the experience feel even more enjoyable. " (*Curated Review*)

" I really enjoyed my experience at Soju! The atmosphere was cozy, and the staff were very friendly and attentive. I ordered the veggie bibimbap, and it was fresh with vibrant colors. I loved that they took the time to craft the dishes carefully. I will definitely return, possibly for their brunch menu next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Soju based on a friend's suggestion and while I enjoyed it, I have had better Korean food elsewhere. The kalbi was tasty but could use more depth in flavor for my liking. However, the service was good, and the cocktails were definitely a highlight. A nice experience overall but not a place I would rush back to. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Soju and had mixed feelings. The food overall was tasty but I felt the portions weren’t satisfactory for the price point. The service was prompt and friendly, which I appreciated. I tried the Korean Fried Chicken, which was crispy and flavorful, but the side dishes didn’t have the same wow factor. The ambiance was nice, though somewhat loud during peak hours. Overall, a decent meal, but there are better Korean places in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Soju impressed me right off the bat with the service provided by the staff who treated us like family. My chicken katsu curry was excellent, and I appreciated the generous portion size as well. However, the rainy Friday evening led to a packed restaurant making it quite noisy. That said, I still enjoyed the atmosphere overall. Definitely a place I would recommend to others.

" This place was a delight! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance created a wonderful dining experience. The staff were so engaging, and the food was equally fantastic. My favorite was the spicy dumplings, bursting with flavor. The pricing was just right for what you get here. I’ll surely return soon for another round of those dumplings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Soju is an excellent dining experience! I appreciate their attention to detail. The weekly specials are creative and keep me coming back to try new dishes. I’d recommend the special bulgogi tacos, which were a delightful surprise. The staff was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. The ambiance is lovely, perfect for date night or a casual outing.
