Koreatown's iconic charcoal KBBQ spot where you grill over real hardwood charcoal and leave smelling like a good meal
Soot Bull Jeep is one of the few remaining Koreatown restaurants that still grills over real hardwood charcoal rather than gas — and you can taste the difference in every bite. The galbi arrives marinated and sweet, the brisket renders and crisps at the edges, and the smoke from the charcoal settles into the meat in a way that gas grills simply cannot replicate. It's a Korean barbecue experience that feels earned: the room fills with smoke, the servers work efficiently around the grills, and the entire meal carries the flavor of something authentic and old.
Soot Bull Jeep is known for koreatown's iconic charcoal kbbq spot where you grill over real hardwood charcoal and leave smelling like a good meal. Must-try dishes include Galbi (short ribs) and Samgyupsal (pork belly).
