Located just at the brink of Little Korea is a gem of a place called Soot Bull Jeep. Their own private parking space makes it very convenient to visit the place.Staff are friendly and very accomodating. Food is amazing and good value!DonÒ€ℒt miss it

The BBQ was good but the service was lacking. I don't think I'll go back. There are so many other options.

I went to this place 1 week ago before that it was 10 years ago. Place look not much different from 10 years ago price is much higher. Kalbi does taste pretty good but minimum order is least 2. Only reason I give this place 4 star is because of price, day that I went I end up spending $140 for 2 person. Now days there are other near by all you can eat Korean BBQ for lot less than this place.

Ever since I got back from Los Angeles I've been looking for the best sandwiches in the city, and I finally found it. The quantity of food you get at this price is unbeatable. If highly recommend the slider sampler to try their three best sandwiches, and a free sea salt chocolate chip cookie with google check in! Will definitely return with friends.

Food was delicious however the ventilation system that evening must not have been working. It was terribly Smokey. All of our clothing is ruined. Hoping the dry cleaner will be able to get the smoke smell out.

Very cool experience. Food was great. These places are always a little hard to get the flow down. They cooked at your table here where others I've been to you do the cooking yourself. Really good overall

I had my business in Korea so I know BBQ. The meat was very good, prepared using wood charcoal, the menu could have been more extensive and they did not bring garlic, bean paste or lettuce, but all in all, a good experience! Γ°ΕΈβ€˜Ε’

Charcoal Korean BBQ. Amazing meat quality, very good service. Authentic and delicious, best BBQ we had! The place is a bit smoky, so don't wear date clothes! Also the charcoal sparkles, be careful with contact lenses.

One of the best NOT All-You-Can-Eat places I've been. The prices may be higher than AYCE, but the quality is definitely worth it. They provide charcoal grill (Soot Bull) for your meat to cook. The portion sizes are also great, and if you have multiple people, each person can choose a meat they want and share it. After eating about one person's worth, I was definitely satisfied, unlike AYCE places where you stuff yourself to the point of feeling sick. The salad that comes with the meat is a perfect combination.

This is the OG Korean BBQ in LA! Unfortunately the meats just aren't as good as they used to be. You can get much better meats in other K-town establishments. Service is good (though we went at a slow time) and I still really like that they use real charcoal.

It's a great Korean BBQ place and they are known for the smokiness of the place. Beware! You will stink afterwards so don't wear your nicest clothes and don't plan on going somewhere nice or trendy afters as you will smell. The meats and the banchans (side dishes) are of great quality.

Very authentic Korean BBQ. Marinaded short ribs are a must-try. Little bit on pricey side at $40 / serving of short ribs. Smoke is not well controlled and can make you smelly.

Not sure which part is the Bull and which part is the Jeep but this place is LEGIT. Whats the term the kids are using these days FIREYeah...this place is FIRE.A Korean friend recommend this place to us so we went. The menu seemed a bit small but as a person who BBQs I was really happy to find the quality of meat, the quality of charcoal, very refreshing.Food was beyond on point. Im picky and this place was great!Not picky, just really particular and high standards when it comes to BBQ.Soot Bull Jeep is Legit good, on fire, beyond perfect KBBQ!

Best Korean BBQ in Los Angeles! This is a charcoal grill BBQ place, it's not all you can eat but it's more than enough food for the price. There's a 2 order minimum, which is probably good enough for a 4 people party with average appetites to be comfortable. The waiter cooks for you so you don't have to worry about overlooking your meat. The wait staff are really nice and helpful. We have had the spare ribs, boneless spare ribs, pork, and the Spencer steak they were all delicious, the meat was soft not chewy. The soups are also spectacular

The service here wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst either. The spicy pork was not great I have had better many times from a lot of other places. The spare ribs were delicious but the price was not. For both I paid $73 then there was a mandatory tip of $11. Overall not impressed.

Ahh, I used to come here a lot when I was younger, I used to love it but then quality changed and stopped coming. Recently went back and I thought it was good but (of course) not how I used to remember it which was a bit disappointing but waiter was very attentive and helpful. I would go back. It was still good

Decent side dishes. Chicken was tasty but the baby back ribs were fatty and chewy. I liked they use charcoal. Disliked that we could order an entree only if we ordered two meats to bbq. Good customer Service.

Authentic KBBQ place! Meat will be flavorful because of the smokiness style of cooking. Be aware that your clothes will definitely smell smoke once you are finished eating here.

Feel pretty lucky to snag seats and parking here immediately on a weekend night as this place was quite busy. As many others have said this place is smoky and you will smell like campfire and cigarettes by the time you are done. Anyway, what really matters is the BBQ and on that front the meat delivered. Main dissapointments were that it didn't seem like much of the charcoal smoke was imparted onto the food and the banchan was sub par. Nice things were that the servers help cook your food and they were generally pretty attentive. Prices felt a bit high for the portion sizes too but not too bad.

The food quality here is really good and the wood chips used on the fire makes them really shine. One order of meat is almost like 2 person order at some of the other barbecue places in town. Most of the issue is with the lack of attentive table service and the need to keep asking for things. If you care mostly about food quality, this place is fine. However Koreatown has so many barbecue places, if you cannot provide decent attention to your customers you will lose out to the competition. Secondly the interior needs some upgrade as it looks like a restaurant from the 1970's.

This Korean BBQ place has more of a traditional feel to it. Really good ribs and pork but a bit expensive. Definitely worth coming back in the future!

Be aware, your wallet will be destroyed. This place quality is amazing, but they are very pricy for the portion. If i cant be filled within 2 orders, then the portion is very small. I don't eat a lot, but when each item cost around $20~30 range, i expect to be filled. This is definitely more suited for meetings or special occasions, but never a casual dining. But oh boy, how i want to go back here. Their short ribs are so good it's actually addicting.

True old school Korean BBQ. Make sure to getThere early with all of your party. Otherwise you wonÒ€ℒt get seated. The parking is tough so I take Lyft whenever I go to Korean town. Service was good and the meat quality is not top notch but very flavorful and they use real charcoal instead of gas grillCold soba was so perfect to end the meals .

It's delicious and the charcoal fire does add flavor to the meat. But it's not cheap either. A short rib, a squid and a soup added to $100 (with tip) for a table of two.
