SŌKE BBQ and Hotpot

BBQ and Hotpot: I went here when they first opened, hotpot was alright. Broth was nothing too special. Tasted like instant package. Bbq was good and flavorful. Meet quality was meh. For the price point and quality of meet, my friends and I chose not to come back. Unsure if it has improved now.

Service: good and friendly

Bun Rieu: The broth was good and tasted authentic. However, the noodles broke apart a lot. It was a great portion for $9.99 on a Sunday, and I love that there’s no extra charge for asking for extra broth. Unfortunately, the blood jelly had no flavor. Its texture was very unusual; it seemed like they added extra gelatin to the mix, resulting in an inauthentic texture for the blood jelly.

Mochinut: havent had the chance to try, but they rotate flavors each day. They look delicious though. Will definitely come back to try

An excellent all you can eat hot pot location. They also have a vietnamese menu! Soke is very unique compared to other hot pot and BBQ locations as they offer unique soups and menu items; like pho broth and and certain meat selections.

The quality of the meats was great. We did both bbq and soup. BBQ meat selection was great (in pictures). Soup selection is excellent for a group of 4 and the quality of the soup was delicious and very flavorful. The hot pot wasn't too salty and well balanced with the flavors and ingredients.

The veggies were fresh and sauces really elevated the dishes. if you know what youre doing, the BBQ is an excellent choice.

The employees were very nice, welcoming and very helpful! would highly recommend this spot.

We came specifically for the Bun Bo Hue and it did not disappoint. I actually prefer this one because to me its one of the best in the area. Its beefy and flavorful with every bite. Most that I've tried it taste diluted when you eat the noodles but this one continues to stay hot because its heated.

Sōke is definitely worth it in my opinion ^o^ !! Been here twice, and both times the staff and food was excellent. Doesn’t take too long to receive the food, and there is a lot of variety to choose from. Lunch is definitely much cheaper than coming in for dinner, but with the AYCE (excluding appetizers), it is still definitely worth it! Staff always double checks with us every once in a while if we want to order more and are very patient and understanding. My mom doesn’t go out to hot pot or korean barbecue as often nor does she know how to speak english as fluently, yet the staff members were very polite, helpful, and kind in my mother’s experience here. They also handed us extra plates and a lighter for the cake we had brought for her birthday. The second time I came I was once again with family members who this time haven’t had hot pot/bbq before and also aren’t the best with english. They were once again very kind and patient which I heavily appreciated. Overall, the staff definitely works hard to make their customers feel comfortable and have a great experience. As said earlier, food is delicious & nothing to complain about. I’ve recommend this place to many people already and will continue coming in the future. Great place to go every once in

I love this place! It's fun, something different from a typical restaurant where you just sit, order, eat. I love getting to choose ingredients and building what I like! Perfect for a date night or a spot to bring the kids. And, the food is fresh and yummy!

The broth had some kind of grainy sugary texture flavor to them. We were not a fan of the Tom yum. The spicy bone broth was OK and the favorite was the chicken broth which then we just added our own spices to. We love how the menu clearly stated that on specialty items like lobster or certain steaks that it was one per person for all you can eat, which was really nice that it was already there so we didn't have to feel embarrassed asking our server was very friendly very helpful. We also enjoyed our specialty drinks like the peach tea.

It was okay. There are concerns for sanitation. Those were the soup spoons they gave us. It was crusty and dirty. The tongs were greasy with red sauce on it. I forgot to get a pic of the tongs. Anyways, when I asked for new and clean cookware, they seemed irritated. Like, why would you think it’s okay to even give those dirty utensils out? And to have attitude after I asked for new ones is crazy. Also the hot tea I ordered did not come out until we were done eating. My friend ordered squid and they just gave us a whole slab without cutting it into smaller pieces. Not sure if that was normal for this location, but it was not convenient for cooking. There were only 2-3 tables that day.

Service very poor, took us long wait to order, there was only 3 tables at that time. Repeat orders took a while and lost appetite.

Sōke Korean BBQ is a gem! The bulgogi is hands-down the most authentic I’ve had.

The really amazing thing here, you cook it yourself. That’s right, along with a huge assortment of spices to make your own marinade is just fun.

Perfectly marinated, tender, and bursting with that sweet-savory flavor that hits all the right spots. The caramelized edges from the grill? Chef’s kiss! Paired with their banchan and a warm, welcoming vibe, it’s like a mini trip to Korea. Can’t wait to come back for more!

First time hot pot or BBQ so not much to base this on. Food was fresh. Service was OK. No lobster so that was disappointing. But genuinely good.

Food was good but the server did not explain anything to us as it was our first time ever being here we pretty much had to figure things out on our own. We didn't realize there was a dip station until we were leaving.
