    Limited menu, but everything is good. Scallion pancake, kalguksoo, and pork bone soup were great! kalguksoo is more of pasta with thick sauce, less of a soup. Still very interest and tasty. I liked everything overall. Those 3 dishes were well enough for 2 people. Unlike any other Korean restaurant I've been to in SF. Flavors were unique and memorable. Just be patient. They are new and possibly limited staff. Food is worth it. Make reservations during peak dinner hours. I went on a Thursday at 7pm and the place was full.

    Fantastic place to dine. The food was very comforting, the ambiance and layout of the restaurant was very clean, and the service was great. I will recommend Sungho to anyone who wants to experience high quality Korean food at a reasonable price, whether it’s a group dinner or sitting at the bar. The portions were big enough to share.

    I am from Korea and very familiar with the food they sell. But their food is most outstanding amongst the food I have eaten, including the one from Korea. Their service is also perfect, making us feel comfortable and enjoy food. I strongly recommend to those who want to taste the REAL Korean pork soup and other Korean dishes to visit here and enjoy dishes.

    Good, healthy food. Limited menu. Did not know it specialized in pork. The two pancakes were the best.
