Sang Rok Soo Korean - Springfield

That is truly authentic Korean food!! After working in Samsung for many years I know what Korean people eat everyday. Very fresh and spicy.

While this doesn't rival any of my favorite Korean restaurants in the area, I think that Sang Rok Soo is the perfect place to grab some quick, homey, and cheap Korean classics. You can find kimchi jjigae, doenjang jjigae, sundubu jjigae, bibimbap, bulgogi, yukgaejang, seolleongtang, galbitang, naengmyeon, and so much more! There are 34 options to choose from, which is quite an extensive menu for a little cafeteria inside a supermarket. Plus, the food is truly authentic Korean cuisine. Dishes average between $8-10, which is very reasonable. If I worked around here, I'd come for lunch or dinner almost every day. There's even a LA Galbi doenjang jjigae option for $12.99, which is the cheapest I've ever seen LA galbi and doenjang jjigae being served anywhere in the area. Usually, it's $12.99 for just one of the dishes elsewhere. The food also tastes very good. My favorite is the kimchi jjigae, but I've had several other dishes and they all tasted delicious so far. I've been here a couple of times, and I've always enjoyed eating here. The portion is perfect for me. You even get a side of rice and two banchan dishes with your entree, so you'll walk away satisfied. There's also free roasted barley tea. The staff is very friendly too and the seating area is clean. They frequently will wipe down the tables after customers leave. If you're doing your grocery shopping, why not drop by Sang Rok Soo for a quick dinner too?

Food was great! While ordering was a challenge due to my terrible pronunciation of Korean, the staff helped me out and make the process fun.

Pretty good for the price and the location. Half of the price in any Korean restaurants I Springfield.

Hidden in the Lotte supermarket is a gem if a Korean restaurant, great value for money and excellent food
