" I come to So Moon Nan Jip every time I visit New Jersey. It's genuinely one of the best places for Korean BBQ I've found in the area. The side dishes are fresh, and the main courses are generous. I usually order the marinated pork and it never disappoints. You can tell the ingredients are high quality. The only downside is the slight wait for a table during busy hours, but that's to be expected at good spots! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a date night at So Moon Nan Jip and it was simply delightful. The marinated galbi was a fantastic choice! The flavors were rich and the grilling technique made a significant difference. The service was warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere felt casual yet elegant. Will surely recommend this cozy spot to friends looking for great Korean BBQ! " (*Curated Review*)

" Based on the strong reviews, I thought I would have an unbeatable BBQ experience, but I was slightly let down. The galbi lived up to the hype, but some of the other dishes felt subpar. The service, while friendly, had some delays. The atmosphere is inviting, though, which I appreciated during our visit. I might come back but perhaps stick to fewer menu items next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" So Moon Nan Jip has a unique charm. The beef quality is top-notch and their BBQ preparation sets them apart from the competition. The service staff is eager to serve and very friendly. However, I felt $40 for a BBQ platter was a bit steep for the portion size I received. A little more food would justify the price, making this place even more commendable. Still, I’m a fan! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I had a nice time at So Moon Nan Jip. The galbi BBQ was tasty and cooked perfectly, but some dishes, like the cold noodles, did not stand out. I appreciated the attentive service and the warm atmosphere. The portion sizes felt just right for the price, although I wish I had more of the banchan to enjoy with my meal. Still, I would recommend this restaurant to friends who enjoy Korean BBQ! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been a regular at So Moon Nan Jip for years and I still love it. The quality of the BBQ is consistently good. The galbi is a standout, with excellent seasoning and tenderness. I appreciate that they use real charcoal, which makes a noticeable difference. However, I have noticed some fluctuations in service speed depending on how busy they are. Nonetheless, the overall experience has been spot on and I will keep returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm always on the lookout for the best Korean BBQ, and So Moon Nan Jip has become a favorite. The atmosphere is comfortable for family dinners, and the staff is personable. The pork belly I ordered was grilled beautifully and paired excellently with the side dishes. I also appreciated the authentic taste that reminded me of Korean BBQ in Seoul. I’ll be returning without a doubt! " (*Curated Review*)
