A Korean spot has debuted in the neighborhood. The fresh arrival to Glenwood South, called Seoul 116, is located at 116 N. West St., Suite 100.
Start your meal with the bulgogi slider: Soy-marinated rib-eye, scallion and cucumber kimchi topped with black sesame mayo. For your main course, check out the Korean fried chicken wings, dipped in sweet and spicy sauce and served with pickled radish. End your night with dessert: green tea ice cream with churros or honey butter chip with vanilla ice cream.
Seoul 116 has proven popular thus far, with a 4.5-star rating out of 14 reviews on Yelp.
Linda H., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on May 10, said, "This place has great food, Korean music and a laid- back, hip ambiance. If you love cheese I would recommend the truffle corn cheese. The bulgogi sliders were also delicious. The churros were warm, crispy and chewy and complemented the green tea ice cream. They have a full bar and mixed drinks in Capri Sun-styled bags."
And Ron W. said, "I stopped in on their opening evening and tried out a fun cast-iron roast corn and cheese appetizer, a wonderful spicy pork slider along with some Korean fried chicken. Everything was well prepared, albeit a bit sweet but maybe that was just my choices! The space is modern and a bit industrial."
Head on over to check it out: Seoul 116 is open from 5 p.m.–9:30 p.m. on Monday, 11:30 a.m.–2 p.m. and 5 p.m.–9:30 p.m. on Tuesday-Thursday, 11:30 a.m.–2 p.m. and 5 p.m.–10 p.m. on Friday, and 5 p.m.–10 p.m. on Saturday. (It's closed on Sunday.)
