Customer Reviews
Attentive staff. Great meats and pan chan side dishes. Very solid KBBQ compared with the top venues. Wasn’t too busy for a weekday; about half full. The staff were excellent.
I've been wanting to come to Sot for a while and I am so glad I finally got the chance! We came in on a Monday right when they opened and there wasnt a wait. The server brought us menus and water right away and we decided on the A++ Sampler plate. However it was just two of us so when we asked for it, the server told us no because it was for 4 people and recommend the Waygu Sampler Plate instead so we said okay. We also ordered the Housemade Pan Fried Dumplings. The Waygu Sampler Plate had the A5 Japanese Waygu Ribeye, Waygu Short Rib, Waygu Brisket, Waygu Top Blade and Waygu Chuck Short Rib. All of the cuts were delicious! Melt in your mouth kind of delicious! Our favorites had to have been the Waygu Brisket and the Waygu Top Blade. They were so good we decided to get another order of the
We had the SOT Sampler + Japanese A5 Wagyu. My wife and I plus the baby were FULL and we loved every part of it. Their service was also absolutely top-notch. All of the staff were incredibly friendly and kind. We never once had to touch the tongs or scissors, and one of the servers even went out of their way to pick rice grains off my shirt after the baby smeared them on me. 💯💯 Definitely recommend it!
Not AYCE but I loved the style. Lots of kimchi and bean sprouts with the party platter. Healthier option compared to the AYCE style because you will not overeat on meat. Server cooks the meat for you. Banchans were tasty. Would like to see some fishcake banchan. Our server Nate was fun!
This place is in the same location as Daiso, Turners, and Cheetahs. Parking is a little difficult but since we came early, we found one right away. We got a table right away when we entered the restaurant. There were only a few tables occupied because it was early. But when we left, the place was pretty packed. Service was better today compared to when we first came here. Food was never a question when it comes to the quality. The Sot sampler was a lot of meat for 2 people considering all the bonchon they provide. The quality of meat here is very good, tender, and very tasty. I think this is one of my top best KBBQ restaurants in San Diego. It is definitely a place to go to all the time.
