Soju Haus

The Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate This Week - Eater NY

"Koreatown on a Friday night is teeming with people, and it seems like many of them are beelining for Soju Haus, a raucous restaurant that lies hidden on the second floor of an office building. Everything we ate Friday night was super tasty — kimchi pancake, sizzling bulgogi — but my favorite was the spicy rice cakes with fried squid ($12.95). The rice cakes come in the classic red gochujang sauce, but Soju Haus’s version was less sweet than others, which I appreciated. On top are well-fried circles of squid, which makes the dish equally about contrasting textures — squishy rice cakes, crunchy and chewy squid — as it is about the spicy and seafoody flavors." - Eater Staff
