OUR STORY

Seoul Cham Soot BBQ has been a part of the La Cañada Flintridge community since 2008. What began as a dream brought from South Korea has grown into a family-owned restaurant known for premium charcoal-grilled Korean BBQ, authentic home-style dishes, and a welcoming dining experience for all.

The owners were born and raised in South Korea, where food was at the center of family, tradition, and everyday life. When they immigrated to the United States, they carried with them generations of cherished recipes, bold flavors, and a deep love for Korean cuisine. Every dish served at Seoul Cham Soot BBQ reflects those roots.

While we are best known for our high-quality Korean BBQ meats grilled over real charcoal, our menu goes far beyond the grill. We proudly offer a wide selection of traditional Korean dishes, including many that are hard to find elsewhere in Los Angeles. Each meal is made with the intention of delivering the comfort and warmth of a home-cooked Korean meal.

For over 17 years, we’ve been grateful to serve a loyal community of regulars while welcoming newcomers eager to explore Korean food for the first time. Whether you’re a K-BBQ purist, a curious foodie, a family gathering around the table, or someone discovering Korean cuisine for the first time, our goal remains the same: to make everyone feel at home.

At Seoul Cham Soot BBQ, we don’t just serve food—we share our culture, our story, and our table with you
