This place has an amazing vibe—from the ambience and the service to the food and drinks. I’ve been here twice already, and I haven’t been disappointed. I’ve tried the tempura salt cod, short rib empanadas, wings, chorizo quesadillas, and the kimchi chop cheese; everything was top-notch. I like that the food is served tapas-style, so you can share a bunch of dishes with friends. The drinks are great too, but my favorite is the BBL Drizzy. It’s on the sweeter side, but well-balanced and buzzy. I also tried the Jinro soju, it was so light and refreshing. I 100% recommend this place!

Seoul Shakers nails the cool-night-out vibe—moody lights, great music, and an easy energy that makes catching up with friends effortless. The cocktails have playful Korean twists, and the shareable plates kept the table buzzing (the fried chicken was a hit). Service is upbeat and unfussy, with a pace that lets you linger and laugh. Stylish without trying too hard—come for the drinks, stay for the conversation. Already planning our next round.
I’m usually not the type to leave detailed reviews, but I felt like writing one this time.
The atmosphere when I first walked in was pleasant — retro neighborhood vibes, casual setting, and cozy lighting.
However, the female server was a bit rude. She would ask if the food was okay and then walk away without listening to my answer. Honestly, I would have preferred if she hadn’t asked at all. After this happened several times, it left us with a sour feeling.
We ordered about five dishes. One of them was a salted fish dish — naturally, I expected it to be somewhat salty, but it turned out overwhelmingly salty to the point where it was difficult to eat. Our table felt bad about sending it back to the chef, so we tried to balance it out by eating it alongside the other dishes. Still, we couldn’t finish it.
I mentioned this to the female server, though I doubt she actually took it in. Her attitude felt quite rude. That said, the male server and kitchen staff later on were kind and attentive, which is why we still left a generous tip.
Will I return? I’m not sure. For me, if either the food or the service is satisfying, a place is worth revisiting. Unfortunately, this time, neither met the mark. Perhaps my expectations were too high, but I believe with just a little adjustment, this spot could become a wonderful neighborhood bar.
I leave this review with that hope in mind.

It’s okay. The fusion food kinda just tastes if you threw some kimchi/gochuchang/soy on regular staple dishes. Only had a couple things but first impression it was very mediocre. The atmosphere is dive bar like but I think that’s the intention with the edgy look.
I wouldn’t go back.

Super cool bar and restaurant! Had a variety of dishes including a tofu guac, kimchi fries and eggplant. The eggplant was by far the best dish perfect flavor and well made. Service was really nice but absolutely loved the energy and vibe of the restaurant
Delicious variety of shareables and friendly staff, casual atmosphere with nice music selection

This place is a total gem, food is always fantastic, the drinks amazing and wonderful service! The wedge salad is deadly, love the wings, to be honest never had a dish here that wasn’t 100%
