✨Drink like a Whale and Eat a Volcano at Sulgorae in Norwalk, California✨We came to @sulgorae.sojubar for their refreshing Whole Watermelon Soju, which consists of fresh watermelon juice (the perfect summer flavor), Soju, and Sprite to sweeten and fizz up your cocktail.
What we didn’t expect was to be blown away by their variety of food options, from fried bar bites to comforting entrees and everywhere in between. Their KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) was served hot (temperature) from the kitchen with the skin in perfect crispiness and meat so juicy.
But the real star of the meal was their Volcano Beef Stirfry- you know it’s the dish to get when you see it served to every table! Be warned: the spice level is no joke here. We ordered with a level 1 out of 4 spice and that was perfect amount for me (and I can handle ??)
We had: ?Whole Watermelon Soju, ?Soy Garlic Chicken Wings & Fries, ?Volcano Beef Stirfry

I've been seeing this gorgeous soju bar all over my feed and since I'm a fan of Korean bar food, I knew it was about time to check it out. I came on a Thursday evening around 7:30pm and there were already a couple of tables that were full. They have a small secluded room from the main area that is used for private/booked events so I thought that was pretty cool. The interior is adorned with pretty pink flowers on the ceiling and they have a lot of neon light signage that is great for photo opps. They had a couple of unique items on their menu that are a crowd favorite which are the Volcano Beef and the Fried Baby Back Ribs which I also highly recommend. I definitely want to come back with a larger group the next time to try out more dishes.

-Located in the same plaza as Ozen Sushi and Luxor Music Studio.
-Parking lot gets pretty full. We were lucky to find parking in front of the establishment on a Thursday evening around 7:30pm.

Volcano Beef ($36.99) - I've never seen anything like this before! Note that it does take a while to cook so make sure you order other foods while you wait for this. If you can't handle too much spiciness, definitely let them know so they can adjust the spiciness accordingly. The bean sprouts definitely helped alleviate the spiciness for me and it made the dish quite refreshing. Perfect for sharing!
Fried Baby Back Ribs ($24.99) - I don't know whose genius idea it was to fry the baby back ribs, but it's soooo good! I opted for the sweet version and it was chef's kiss. The ribs were juicy and the sauce was marinated well with the meat. I don't remember if it comes with 5 or 6 ribs but I definitely recommend ordering this for your group.
6pcs Soy Garlic Chicken Wings ($10.99) - I didn't know it came with seasoned fries as well, but I wasn't complaining! The soy garlic marinade on the chicken wings was pretty flavorful. Not bad if you're craving for some Korean fried chicken.
Fried Pork Belly with Kimchi ($27.99) - you gotta get this if you love pork belly. The fact that they fry the pork belly gives it a crispy texture and pairs so well with the kimchi. The kimchi definitely helps makes it taste less greasy.
This was good but didn't stand out as much compared to the fried baby back ribs or the volcano beef.
Mango Soju Slushy ($12.99) - I definitely tasted more alcohol in this compared to the other cocktail that I ordered. They also have this in strawberry, peach and mango flavors. Would be cool if they allowed a mixture of two flavors. I'm honestly loving the idea of mango soju slushies and some of the Korean bar spots that I go to don't have this on the menu yet. It's like having a Fat Tuesday from Vegas but it's at your local Korean Bar and it uses Korean alcohol instead.
Strawberry Smoke Highball ($9.99) - If you're into aesthetic cool looking drinks, then you definitely have to order at least one and get your camera ready when they bring out the bubble gun. It also comes in Peach, Mango, Pina Colada and Margarita flavor. I would definitely recommend to let your server know if you want them to do that at your table, otherwise I think they'll just make the bubble at the bar and bring it to your table. I didn't taste as much alcohol in this, so I'm not sure if it's because it's masked well or they don't use as much. Either way, if you're looking for something tasty and smooth, this is your drink!

Pleasantly surprised at how good the food is. We came in thinking it was our go to Korean Fried Chicken spot (Chimak) and we're bummed when it was something else. I'm glad we stayed cause the wings were amazing, the service was top notch and place had a very relaxed and cool vibe. Highly recommend!
