Seoul K BBQ in Lisbon offers a modern take on Korean barbecue, but certain aspects detract from the overall experience.
Pros The highlight of the dining experience is, as expected, the interactive grill at the center of the table. The combo platter is an excellent choice, providing a good variety of meats, seafood, and vegetables, allowing diners to enjoy a little of everything. The freshness of the ingredients, particularly the meats, fish, and shrimp, is commendable, ensuring a quality meal. For those looking to pair their food with wine, there is an option with decent value for money.
Another unique feature worth mentioning is the “Ferris wheel” presentation of the fried appetizers, adding a fun and playful element to the meal.

Please keep in mind that this is my personal review, as I’m half Korean, but, guys it’s looks like scam,...
Read moreThe restaurant has a nice vibe with the different wall signs , beef meat was tender, the pork was mostly grease, the fried options were frozen. They came around to change the grill twice, not much interaction. Negative points: there is no proper ventilation, there were 5 tables, and our clothes smell of smoke. Chair was dirty with grease. We were charged a fee of 6€ for not eating a third of the rice plate, considering we ate everything else, that left a less positive impression. Parking in the area needs attention as there are areas reserved for...
