Upscale Korean Barbecue Stunner San Ho Won Still Hits in San Francisco | Eater SF

"Opened in 2021 by fine dining chefs Corey Lee and Jeong‑In Hwang, this twist on the Korean barbecue format skips tabletop burners in favor of meats expertly prepared in the kitchen and brought to the table just seconds after leaving the grill. The menu works either a la carte or as a $118-per-person “house menu” that offers a lot of bang for your buck if you want a guiding hand. A light, fluffy savory egg souffle arrives hot in a dolsot; a server divides it, then pours savory anchovy broth over the top and finishes with a seaweed sauce. Soups and stews lean interactive: for the mugunjib kimchi jjigae, a portable butane stove brings a pot of soup, kimchi, and pork jowl to a boil, after which a team member snips the long strand of Napa cabbage and serves bowls while the rest simmers. There’s also a Busan-style seafood pancake and an assortment of banchan. Even if you’re full, don’t skip dessert — the injeolmisu, the restaurant’s take on tiramisu, is a revelation, layering tea- and chungju-soaked ladyfingers with misugaru, mascarpone, and pleasantly chewy rice cakes." - Dianne de Guzman
