What User doesn't like about Seoul Soul:
The portions are too small and so expensive! I didn't understood the taxes that I paid (it was really higher than 13% . Thus, I just paid 5% for tips. But the woman at the counter was so rude and obligated me to give her more...coins! She told to me that I should pay at least 10% for tips. But I thought that tiping was optional. View all feedback.

The potatoes side dish at this Korean restaurant is delicious - I always ask for refills. Authentic and good Korean dishes here as well.

Reminded me so much of my time living in South Korea. Food was yummy, affordable and service was great.

Love the gamjatang here! Love love love! It's my default dish here and the potato side dish is so sweet and tasty.

I'm not sure how much worse food customer service can get in this Waterloo Plaza until I tried this restaurant__Food was EXTREMELY salty.

Seoul Soul, a cozy Korean eatery in Waterloo, has mixed reviews. Some found the portions small and pricey, with rude service regarding tips. However, many praised the fast service, delicious dishes, and generous portion sizes. The homemade meals, extra side dishes, and friendly service were standout qualities for many patrons. Customers appreciated the traditional Korean fast food offerings and the revamped menu with larger portions and reasonable prices. Overall, Seoul Soul seems to offer a variety of tasty options, despite some inconsistencies in service and portion sizes.
