" I recently tried Road to Seoul for the first time and was quite pleased! The selection of meats was abundant, and we enjoyed a variety of pork and beef. The attentive service made our time more enjoyable. The noise level was relatively high, typical for a KBBQ, but it contributed to the vibrant atmosphere. Just a heads up, expect to leave smelling like BBQ! Overall, a recommended spot for a fun time out with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a pretty average experience at Road to Seoul. The portions were good, but I expected more from the flavors. The spicy chicken was a bit too mild for my palate, and I was hoping for a wider variety in banchan. The lively atmosphere was enjoyable, but the noise made it hard to hear my friends at times. The service was fair, but our server seemed a bit distracted. Overall, it’s a decent choice if you’re in the area but not my favorite Korean BBQ spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was impressed by Road to Seoul for my first visit. Everything from the hands-on cooking experience to the flavorful dishes was enjoyable. The spicy pork and bulgogi were our favorites, as well as the various sides they offered. I will say, the environment can feel overwhelming with the noise, but overall it enhanced the dining experience of making it more social and engaging. Definitely looking forward to my next visit!
