All the great Korean restaurants I've visited have been in inconspicuous locations in strip malls and From the Seoul is no exception. I visited with a friend for lunch and enjoyed everything I had. We shared some steamed vegetable mandu which was tasty. I ordered the stone pot bibibamp with beef. The vegetables were fresh and the beef was tender. I could have used more gochujang but I still enjoyed my meal. I also had a plumcha which was sweet and refreshing. I loved all the banchan that came with the food. Service was attentive. I enjoyed watching the K-pop videos playing on TV. I would definitely come back next time I'm in the area.
This is one of my favorite local restaurants, hands down. I've been a number of times, and explored the menu a bit, and everything I've ever had here has been exceptional. The japchae, bulgogi, and kimchi jeon are a couple favorites. All the banchan are delicious as well. From the Seoul is definitely one of the more expensive places to eat in the immediate area, but well worth it in my opinion. Many items on the menu have hard to source, imported ingredients, and a lot of things appear to be made from scratch. The service in the restaurant is always quick and friendly, and I personally love that there is always K-pop playing. It's a small restaurant, but not cramped so I don't really mind. If I had to find anything to really complain about, I would say that I'm terribly disappointed my favorite drink, sujeonggwa, is no longer on the menu.
What a great place this! Family run and authentic! Our waitress Victoria was so very helpful and friendly. Food was fresh and flavorful and not too spicy.
Great Korean food and excellent service. Food was fresh and incredibly tasty. Severs were friendly and helpful. Restaurant was clean and K-Pop music filled the air. A bit on the pricey side, but worth it.
Stopped here for lunch after a day in New Bedford after seeing so many great reviews. We were definitely not disappointed! When you walk into the restaurant, you will first see the largest pothos plant that could possibly live indoors. Then you'll notice the K-pop music video adding some upbeat music to the space. Even with the music, the space was pretty quite and it was easy to have a conversation. The food was excellent! We got two Korean drinks - plumcha and sikhye, which were very refreshing. I got jap chae with beef, which was a savory delight! My friend got sandubu and loved it! It was definitely spicy but in a way that makes you want to keep eating. The small side plates of potato salad, kim chi, picked, broccoli, and tasty fish were a much appreciated complimentary addition!
So happy to have found a Korean spot in the south coast region. The offering in the menu are plentiful and tasty. They also have some lovely drinks that use authentic soju. Service is excellent every one is attentive as well a welcoming, it's a chill and down to earth atmosphere. Will be coming back very soon.
Ordered dumplings and shrimp Shumai for a lunar new year party and they were great. I ordered in advance, they were ready when I arrived and they warmed up in a steamy oven beautifully. I'll be back to explore the rest of their menu.
Original food choices, unlike any other places around. And extremely good pricing. The atmosphere is shabby but amusing. (Especially the chronically running Korean tv station). I have no recent photos from here. But that's because I'm too interested in eating the food to bother taking a photo. Maybe next time. Eat here. The food is really good
I ordered the Bulgogi (Beef) lunch special. The portion was huge. I gave it 4 stars because I wished it was more seasoned. If you pay with cash, you can select a free snack. I chose seaweed to wrap rice in. The place is clean and spacious. Owner was friendly and attended to his customers. I will definitely be back and try the kalbi.
