Mietta's Review
Deep in the heart of Chinatown is Seoul, a Korean BBQ restaurant complete with table burners and pine panelling. This is mostly cook-your-own but there are other dishes available for those who can't (or won't). All dishes are served with Korea's national dish, kimchi, chilli pickled cabbage.

Other published opinions

The Age Cheap Eats 2005 "MARINATED meats and a gas flame draw people to this pine-panelled hideaway in the heart of Chinatown. The menu is eight pages of temptation, but if you're not here to barbecue, you're missing out."

The Age Cheap Eats 2004,Good,'a pine-panelled space where you can revive your spirits with a bowl of ginseng chicken soup.Then swing into tangy bulgogi beef,barbecued at your table beneath a 70s copper rangehood...Service is attentive but language barriers may make Korean cooking lessons tricky.Just wing it,or follow the regulars,who know the way of the Seoul.'

Herald Sun, Sunday Magazine,Dining,27/7/03, Graham Pearce, Score 7/10, 'Authentic Korean dishes with pleasant surprises...Seoul's food (is) authentic,fresh, tasty and spicy-and worth going back for more.'

Or perhaps ...

Korea Seoul House (03) 9663 8883, 234 Russell St, Melbourne - Korean food as good as you are likely to get in Melbourne. But, there aren't too many challengers.
