" I had a fantastic meal at Sodam. The flavors were on point and the service was exceptionally friendly. I really enjoyed the complimentary banchan that came with the meal. The bibimbap was especially delicious, served hot in the traditional clay pot which added additional crispiness to the rice—a nice touch! The only downside was that finding the entrance was a bit tricky, but once I got in, I thoroughly enjoyed my time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had my first experience at Sodam recently! I had heard many praises about their authentic dishes, and they surely lived up to the expectations. The beef bulgogi was exquisite, and I particularly loved the free appetizer samplers that whetted my appetite. The staff were accommodating and helpful. I'll be bringing my family next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had great expectations visiting Sodam, and they were largely met! The food tasted fresh and authentic, though the service was slightly overwhelmed during our visit. The bulgogi was one of the better versions I've had; juicy and flavorful! The atmosphere was relaxed, perfect for a nice dinner with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Coming to Sodam has always been a pleasure. I visit frequently, and I've never had a bad meal here. Each time, they impress me with their authentic offerings. The servers are welcoming and seem genuinely interested in ensuring a great experience. Recently, I tried their bibimbap for the first time and loved it! I sought full appetites at great prices. I always leave full and satisfied! " (*Curated Review*)

" We went to Sodam for the first time after hearing all the buzz and let me tell you, it lived up to every expectation! The hard-to-find location adds to its charm. The staff was incredibly friendly and made recommendations based on our tastes. The food? Incredible! We tried multiple dishes, but the haemul-tang was clearly the highlight - fresh seafood and a complex broth. It was nice to be starting with free appetizers too! We’ll definitely be coming back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Sodam was mostly positive. I loved the food, especially the kalbi-tang, which had rich flavors. It reminded me of my time spent in Korea. The only complaint I have is the wait time for food—which was longer than expected. The restaurant gets packed, and I could tell the staff was hustling. However, once the food arrived, it was flavorful—and a nice portion size. I would likely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've frequented Sodam for over a year now, and every visit confirms its status as one of the best Korean restaurants around. The kalbi dish is by far my favorite! The staff is always very welcoming. The cozy atmosphere makes it feel personal, and the portions are solid for the price you pay. If you're searching for great Korean food in Rochester, Sodam is the place to go! " (*Curated Review*)
