" I was a bit skeptical at first because of the mixed reviews, but after visiting Soju, I can say it’s worth it! The staff were welcoming and patient with questions. The food was top-notch, especially the vegetable pancakes. They were crispy on the outside and soft inside. I felt the portions were decent, though it would be great if they offered a larger sharing option. Overall, highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" The best Korean restaurant I've tried in Pittsburgh! The flavors are vibrant and each dish is made with care. The kalbi was smoky and tender, while the chili sauce had the perfect kick. I couldn’t get enough of the appetizers like tteokbokki, which was both sweet and spicy. I appreciate how the staff takes pride in their service, always eager to explain the dishes and make suggestions. Prices are reasonable considering the quality. I plan on coming back to try the brunch menu next! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently discovered Soju and it quickly became one of my go-to spots. The food is always fresh and full of flavor. I especially love their bibimbap! Also, the cocktails have such creative combinations; I recommend trying the soju-infused drinks. The atmosphere has a very homey feeling, creating a perfect dining experience. The servings are generous too, making it great for sharing! " (*Curated Review*)

" Soju has become a regular place for my friends and I. The food is fantastic, especially the Korean fried chicken and the cocktails never fail to impress. They really give you a big bang for your buck with the portion sizes. The only time I felt a bit let down was during one visit when things took a little longer than expected, but generally, the service is top-notch! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about my visit to Soju! The staff were warm, welcoming, and always available for our questions. The dishes we got had excellent flavor and the amount was generous enough that we could share. The dessert we had, a Korean-style cake, was absolutely delightful. I am already planning my next visit!

" 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.
