Great place for sit down and share food with couple of friend. A well stocked bar with nice selection of spirits. Great customer service. Expect a wait time during peak hours.

Cool spot that I randomly walked by. The menu looked great and the happy hour item selection was great value. Got the Seoul hot chicken sandwich and the wings. Would highly recommend both. Would love to go back and try more things.

Scrumptious place! Pictured is their tofu bibimbap but their fried chicken sandwich is a near-holy experience!

Stopped in here for dinner on a rather chilly night and as I walked in the place immediately stole my heart with the idyllic lighting and rustic setting. I enjoy Korean cuisine very much and have had plenty while living in NYC, so expectations were high. One thing I've noticed that stays consistent across all non-NYC-based korean restaurants, is that banchan is not included with the meal. And banchan is the backbone of any Korean meal!Anyways, I ordered the Rice Cake Dumpling Soup from their menu, a seasonal dish(?), and was pleased with the presentation. Lots of color and a sizable portion. Yet, the flavors were too mild and a tad bit salty for my preference. My partner did enjoy his Bulgogi Burger and "perfectly cooked" fries. That mayo blend dipping sauce made the fries all the more addicting.Overall, we had an enjoyable dinner and hope to try the other dishes out next time we're here!

One of the best happy hour food specials in Philadelphia. The Seoul Hot Chicken Sandwich is massive, and an absolute steal at only $7, and my friend said the Bulgogi Burger was excellent as well. Great drink specials like a rotating $4 "Mystery Beer", as well as multiple varieties of house-made soju. Friendly staff, and good movies on the TVs. I'm going to be going back many many times

Southgate kimchi is hands down the best kimchi I ever had. Southgate spicy pickles are my source of comfort. I believe it's because Southgate slathers their pickles in joy. So while the chicken wings are lovely - the Southgate banchan is what I crave!

Great food and excellent service. The food was delicious and timely. Our mixed drinks were perfect and the bartenders were very friendly. This is one of the best Korean fusion places I have found. Their happy hour specials are also worth checking out.

Terrible dining experience. Food did not taste fresh. Serve was incredibly slow. Very, very loud inside, forget trying to have a conversation with your dining partner. The manager, I believe his name was Peter, was very condescending when approached that the food didn’t taste fresh. Will not be returning and I definitely do not recommend this place to anyone.

The quarantine take-out menu is so well put together—I highly recommend the soy wings and beef lettuce wraps. Grateful to have eaten inside, too, and had a great experience each time. The staff is friendly and the menu is delicious—I've never ordered anything I didn't love. Five stars for sure.

Delicious food, great setting, and amazing staff. We were fortunate enough to be there during restraunt week and the menu really gave us a chance to experience a lot of what they had. Would be perfect for date night, dinner with friends, or just because you wanted to treat yourself.

I want to like this place. I am Korean. However, especially their brunch menu just does not execute the couple times I went. Some were completely unseasoned, some were way too salty. Dinner and late night food, though are great.

Southgate has been a welcome addition to the neighborhood with solid Korean style grub. The Galbi and their spicy Korean crispy chicken are not to be missed! The service is a bit lackluster but the food and drinks are fairly priced for the portion sizes. They have outdoor seating and are positioned on a good corner to people watch.

One of the gems in the Rittenhouse/grad hospital area. Food was incredible, especially the bulgogi burger (one of the best burgers in the city), spicy fried chicken sandwich, and pork dumplings. Cocktails are also amazing.

"Korean fried chicken" is not authentic, it was just over-fried hammered chicken wings, not the crispy yet juicy wings they should be. Calamari was mostly batter and little calamari. Brussels were over-sweetened. Bibimbop was only very good dish we had.

BRUNCH! Lots of people know Southgate as a great dinner location, but where they really shine, in my opinion, is their brunch (available Saturday and Sunday only). Think traditional brunch staples, but with a Korean twist (e.g., bibimbap omelette, green tea waffles with Korean fried chicken). There are also somewhat less breakfasty, but delicious items like soft tacos with tofu, and a bulgogi burger; and although it seems odd to mention in a review, this place makes the most delicious hash browns of any place I've been in the city! The kimchi Bloody Mary is a must (best Bloody Mary I've ever had, and a perfect start to a Sunday afternoon!), and of course the beer selection is great, if you like your brunch to be on the festive side.

This cozy nook of a bar and restaurant is a real treasure of the space between Rittenhouse and Graduate Hospital. The drinks are inventive and the food exciting with a late night happy hour to boot. The bulgogi burger hits the spot at any time of day, and the mystery beer adds a bit of fun to your experience.

Cute and delicious. I had the bulgogi burger and my friend had the bibimbop. My only disappointment was in myself for ordering something so boring and American, but the bulgogi flavor in the beef was unique and delicious and I really enjoyed the burger.

Great location nice service but mediocre flavours. I had both dinner and brunch at Southgate. it a a nice place but sadly the food is disappointing. a scramble that is a bit runny and flavourless or 2 tiny brunch tacos lost on a if plate of (frozen) fries with only kimchi and fried tofu, the avocado mentioned on the menu is just in a cream sauce. Again nothing bad but so much better could be done.

Here you can- Enjoy what appears to be some korean fusion in a bar restaurant setting, at the bar, table, alone or with a small group, coworkers or a date. My ratings are based on a scale of 1 to 5 stars where1 star is tragic and 5 is Ouuwww terrific Overall ratings- 4.5 starsCustomer service- 5 stars. Bartender was patient and explained not only the menu but some Korean background on some of the menu items. Food taste- I LOVED the spice of the Korean Chic Sandwich and the other items I had were great 5 stars!Ambiance- 3 stars laid back corner bar vibes. Everyone stuck to who they came with. Wouldn't come here to meet new people tho.Decor- 4 stars. Basic clean lines bar restaurant. CleanlinessCleanliness- 4 stars but the bathroom is very well stocked and handy.

Whoa! If you like Korean food, in particular KFC (Korean fried chicken) then this is one to try!! My heart is still true to Eden's in Cherry Hill, but if I can't make it across the bridge this is in my top 5!! This neighborhood pub on Lombard street is nicely fusing eclectic American with traditional Korean food. Their cocktails are inventive as well, just try out their answer back to the Irish car bomb, a Sapporo Japanese beer served with a shot of Soju! U-wa!!! Make reservations if you can because the place is really small but intimate and comfy!

Food was alright.Pork bun was too plain, too much potato as filling and it overwhelmed the taste.The short rib stew was not served hot, it was just like warm.Fried rice is good, but felt like it’s missing some seasoning.Sea bass was good, but the scales weren’t cleaned off completely, I had to remove the fish skin.Lastly, the best dish was the wings and dessert. The peach panna cotta is fantastic, but I don’t think it’s Korean dessert. 🤔
