" My partner has been craving Korean food, and Soban did not disappoint. The flavours were familiar and comforting, reminders of traditional home-cooked meals. It’s a cozy spot, perfect for a date. Highly recommend the budae jjigae! " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible experience! The food is honestly some of the best I've had. The rabokki had the right balance of spice, and the kimchi was super fresh. The restaurant had a comfortable homey feel, making it perfect for a family meal. Huge recommend to all who appreciate authentic Korean food! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Soban was memorable! We had an array of dishes, and each one was bursting with flavor. However, the wait for our food was a bit longer than expected, which detracted from the overall experience. Still, I'll make a point to return and try more from their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Soban after hearing so much about it, but my experience was just average. While the yukgaejang was decent, it lacked the depth of flavor I was looking for. The service was acceptable but nothing special. The atmosphere was cozy but slightly crowded which made it hard to enjoy fully. I might give it another try, but I'm not in a hurry. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere was inviting, and the décor felt authentic. However, the portions felt a bit smaller for what you pay. The food had good flavors but didn’t quite match the authentic tastes I was hoping for; still enjoyable overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe it took me so long to try Soban! The food is incredible. The beef bulgogi is a must-try, and the fried veggie dumplings were perfect! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and I felt like I was eating in someone's home. Definitely plan to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" The authentic tastes of Korea come to life at Soban! The flavors of the bulgogi were robust, complemented by the savory banchan. The fried mandu was crispy and delicious. While the service was friendly, they did seem a little overwhelmed during rush hours. Overall, I can't wait to come back and bring friends! " (*Curated Review*)
