BLUEGRASS BBQ REVIEWS
This restaurant is perfect for when you’re craving a massive meat feast. The pit boss platter is perfect for sharing, and gives you a little bit of everything on their menu. Everything on it was great, apart from the brisket which was slightly dry. They have several options for fries and a range of homemade sauces. Ordering is done via app/web but with table service. Waiting staff were polite and friendly.
Our first time visiting last night and wow, it was soo worth it! Delicious food and great service! We ordered the Pit Boss Platter which was amazing, but the best side dish was certainly the 'Frickles'!! Will deffo be coming back again :)
Good atmosphere, feels like a traditional smoke house. Ordering is done easily via the QR code & app on the table, or orders can be placed at the bar. Portions are a decent size, although presentation could be improved. Friendly staff - looking forward to visiting again.

THE SOJU REVIEWS
Had a booking on June (our wedding anniversary )and went there for the first time.The elder male server was so polite and attentive, the meat that came marinated with traditional herbs was exactly what we hope for, we enjoyed by cooking it by ourselves and eat it in a traditional way rolled in fresh lettuce as we have seen in Korean films Drinks where absolutely fantastic something which we didn't try before, restaurant very clean and prices reasonable. Thank you for the wonderful experience , We will definitely come back.
I love Korean food and this is excellent. I had the lunch set menu to have a taste of different things, and everything was tasty. The staff (who I suspect could be the owners) are friendly, attentive and helpful when deciding what to order. The atmosphere is tranquil and the music is not too loud (which I appreciate when eating). I will definitely come back to keep tasting the rest of the menu. Vegetarian options: Plenty of options with tofu and vegetables. A good variety of pickles;)
Soju offer an extensive selection of meats, seafood, vegetables and other ingredients that can be cooked on the table. For BBQ enthusiats, there is range of marinated meats to choose from. The overall dining experience at soju bbq and hotpot restaurant is enjoyable. The interactive nature of grilling your own meats or cooking communal hotpots fosters a sense of camaraderie among diners. It makes it an ideal place for solo diners as well as social gatherings. Great value for the money. The Korean mango refreshment is not one to be missed.

GOOI NARA REVIEWS
Edit: the cost of the meal is not reflective of the great value. The reason it was high is that I think we ate and drank enough for 4/5 people :-) One the best dinners out I have had for years. Food was out of this world, Service was amazing and the experience was one that I will keep going back for. 100% recommend this restaurant as worth the short walk up from town and you will enjoy the walk back as I need it after eating so much delicious food.
one of the best korean bbq that i have ever got. extremely helpful staff. staff came to our desk to clean the grill plate every 15 minutes. and they even cooked the meat for us. i didnt expect such service at this affordable price. the spicy soup is also above my expectation. thanks for the hospitality.
Absolutely delicious food and amazing customer service from this traditional family led Korean BBQ restaurant. The place is very stylish and comfortable to sit down for a quiet meal with a friend or family. The food is top quality with the restaurant being very considerate of any allergen needs and asking prompt questions about food preferences. The alcohol was very refreshing and unique in taste but also offered a choice of sweet beverages for customers that might prefer that. Prices were very reasonable. Would definitely recommend this restaurant! Vegetarian options: I had tofu bibimbap and it was really delicious. The place offers a lot of good vegetarian options.
