Seoul 2 Soul Bistro - Quincy, Illinois

Where to start, oh my goodness. Opening the door to this quaint little bistro and hearing k-pop playing, I knew I was in the right place. The staff was incredibly nice and attentive from the very moment we entered. We had made a reservation beforehand so we were seated quickly. The waiter recommended the beef and kimchi dumplings......and they did not disappoint. The dumplings had so much flavor, hands down, best dumplings I have ever had. Now for the main course we had the "Korean-ish BBQ" Bulgolgi. The beef was cooked to perfection, smoky, sweet, savory, juicy, and tender......chefs kiss. Even the banchan was delicious! We finished it all off with the homemade strawberry cheesecake ice cream, which was the perfect ending to this delicious dining experience. To say we cannot wait to go back is an understatement. I understand the menu changes weekly and I can't wait to try the korean fried chicken!
So if you are on the fence about going to this place, go, go now, it's incredible!

It was delicious and fast. Except to pay about 50$ if you get a drink too

Well, we are in love with Seoul 2 Soul! The flavor of this food is wonderful! Portion sizes are perfect. Some of the menu items change from week to week, so if you really like something just wait it'll come back around. There are also vegetarian and vegan options. Servers are fantastic, very friendly people. We highly recommend this restaurant, so so good! It's also not a very big place so I strongly recommend making reservations.

Just to get the good things out of the way I was impressed when I walked in at night.

Now the bad, there was very little to pick from on the menu
The sandwich I ordered my buns were burnt and the flavor was off
WAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY over priced for the 3 items I ordered, my total was $54 for the 3 items, and was disappointed with all but 1 item which was the ramen.
The staff was nice but not very attentive they didn’t check on me often but when they did they were overbearing and overwhelming.
I WILL NOT be back!! It would have been cheaper and tasted better plus wayyyy more things to choose from if I would have went to Taco Bell. I wouldn’t even feed this to my dog.

We stopped in to have dinner. Seated very quickly and menu had a decent selection. Looks like they have a different menu each week. Decent selection of drink options. Our meals were very good, had a chicken ramen and lettuce wraps. Prices were decent considering costs now days. Nice intimate restaurant. Currently the main road is under construction, but soon will be easier to access when done.

The staff and owner are so unbelievably kind, they're a talkative bunch and the food is to die for. I had the katsudon ( wonderful, flavorful and piping hot) and the ice cream "3B's". (which was made in house! ) It was all so amazing. I loved it and I'm certainly coming back.

Overpriced and not authentic. The pork with the tteokbokki was not very good and the pork belly had zero flavor. For 25 dollars the serving size is horrendously small compared to places like Fuji. Koreana in Galesburg tastes much better and has much more flavor. I don’t expect the food to be like it would in Korea but for 25 dollars to get a small plate of tteokbokki, it better be delicious.

I ordered Bibimbap and it came in a hot bowl that was sizzling so all the rice on the bottom was burnt so I couldn’t even finish it. It also didn’t taste like the true Korean Bibimbap that I’ve always had. I also ordered a side of Kimchi which was homemade but it didn’t taste like true Kimchi. I also asked for Korean beer and was given a few options but when I got it the beer was Japanese. When the bill came they charged for the side of Kimchi and hot sauce that was supposed to come with the Bibimbap. I mentioned all this and the waiter didn’t even acknowledge it and/or apologize. He just took my CC to pay the bill. I don’t recommend this place to anyone because it’s definitely not an authentic Korean restaurant.
