"Banchan is a crucial part of the Korean BBQ experience, and no one does banchan better than San Soo Gab San. The moment you sit down at this Lincoln Square institution, your table is immediately overtaken by side dishes that make you feel like free table bread isn’t trying hard enough. From kimchi, to broccoli muchin, to myeolchi bokkeum, there are over 25 things to snack on between grilled meat. And the seasoned meats are the cuts you should order—definitely get the thinly sliced bulgogi and their sweet and savory wang kalbi which get an added smoky flavor from the charcoal grill. The space is casual and spacious, so it’s perfect for unwinding after a busy week with some friends to not only help you finish the meat, but also tackle the ocean of banchan." - adrian kane, john ringor
