Long queues snake down the staircase at Seoul Korea in the evenings but for their top-notch grills, the hour-wait is worth it. The residential location meets modest furnishings for a homey setup, which means it's an appropriate time to dress down in shorts and flip-flops! Both their booth seats and BBQ set options are best shared between four to six — prime for dinner with a few friends. Order the value-for-money Mixture-BBQ (from RM110 for four) that yields ample portions of chicken and pork grilled tableside. If you're feeling generous, this is also the place to try Jeon-Tong Bulgogi (hot plate bulgogi, RM39). Seared with sweet onions on a hot plate, the tender beef slices slicked in dark sauce pack a punch! Mains aside, this restaurant makes our list for its supreme banchan selections. It's a neverending supply of nine different plates, filled with refreshing cucumber kimchi, pickled lotus root and candied peanuts among others.
Avg price per person: RM30
