"The menu at SouthGate is a mix of modern takes on Korean dishes, like the bulgogi burger, and the classics, complemented by a drinks list filled with inventive combinations. Soju shows up in cocktails and on its own." - George Banks-Weston
"SouthGate, the Rittenhouse gastropub with a Korean menu, is known for its “KFC,” which stands for Korean fried chicken. These wings are double-fried for crispiness and served with soy garlic or spicy gochujang sauce." - Ernest Owens, Eater Staff
"No cheesecake variation in town is as memorable as this Korean confection that’s effortlessly made with fruity Asian pears and a smooth, creamy composition." - Ernest Owens
"Sauteed kimchi gives SouthGate’s burger signature flair. Here a bulgogi spiced patty is finished off with aromatic perilla leaves, bacon, cheese, and Kewpie mayo. A paired down bulgogi burger is served with a gochugaru-spiked aioli." - Ernest Owens
"The trendy Korean fusion sports bar in Graduate Hospital puts its spin on this classic, with french fries that feature both kimchi and a kimchi vinaigrette accompanied by crispy bacon crumbles, gooey cheddar cheese, and scallions." - George Banks-Weston
