When I was growing up, going to school across the street at Aliamanu, they only had Pioneer Chicken at that corner of the Shopping Center. Several years later, after Pioneer Chicken was no more, I was pleased to discover this new Korean BBQ place that opened up there.

Oh is great to come back to this monumental Korean restaurant in Salt Lake. Love that thin sliced Meat Jun. I was craving some Kalbi so must try the Kalbi combo with Meat Jun. The Kalbi was seasoned perfectly and the Meat Jun was great as usual. I definitely recommend phoning in your order for that quick pick up. There's A couple of picnic tables outside the restaurant, but be prepared to shooo away them flies.
Parking: The restaurant it’s in the back corner of Salt Lake shopping center. Next-door to Pizza Hut there’s lots of free parking right in front of the restaurant.

I live in Arizona Glendale and I miss soon barbecue I lived in Foster Village and went to Radford and Makalapa . I wish I could get the recipe for meat Jun because nobody knows how to Cook even Korean restaurants don’t know what I mean. I know it’s more than egg better and fried and somebody please drop me a secret.

We moved out of the neighborhood over 30 years ago and we still go out of our way to eat at Soon’s! Our adult kids have never lived in the Salt Lake area and they too eat Soon’s quite often!

I used to go there after school 30 years ago and sit outside to eat. You could smell them cooking and I'd race across the street after school to get something yummy. The food was so good I can still taste it and smell it in my mind. It's been a long time since I was home but I'm so glad to see that Soon's is still around and still serving up the best Korean bbq and burgers in the world.

First time customer and was very disappointed. I walked to the window and the cashier was sitting down on something other than a chair and playing on her phone. When she saw I was standing there not even a smile nor a Hi. I’d even settle for eye contact…nothing. She took my order and when I asked how long she walked away and mumbled something. I had to ask again but this time loudly giving her the benefit of the doubt maybe she didn’t hear me. In a cocky way as if I was bothering her she told me 5 to 10 minutes for 3 plates. Hmmmm, amazingly the plates were prepared in that time frame. However, you’d think wow that’s service! Sadly, it wasn’t. I ordered 2 meat Jun w/1 Kalbi each. 1 meat Jun plate total almost $55.00. The meat in the Jun was so paper thin it was barely there. The batter was like Al dente noodles, chewy. I was so disappointed as much I was hyped up about this place. Times are really hard, the struggle is real. The economy is getting more expensive. The quality is getting smaller and or worse and people/companies are settling becoming complacent and see absolutely nothing wrong with the service they provide. At least that’s my opinion. I live for experiences and this one I’ll pass.
