Min Sok Chon

To put it simply~this place slaps but fr they need to chill it with the prices
I recommend their spicy Parmesan garlic wings/corn cheese/galbi and if you're feeling a lil spicy try the alien juice soju

The food is so good! The service is okay depending on the night but the music is just ridiculously loud. This place is for the abg's, college frat boys, and sorority girls. If the soup wasn't so yummy I'd never come here. If you like EDM, cocktails or bottle service, and karaoke then this is place is definitely your vibe.

Today I tried the kimchi jjigae, beef bone broth soup, and side dishes. The side dishes were pretty good but very small. The kimchi jjigae with tteokbokki is my new go to at Min Sok if I'm craving something after hours.

I've been to Min Sok Chon a couple of times but haven't been back for over 8 years until this past weekend. I went with a girlfriend of mine so we could catch up over some Korean food and soju and we had a pretty good time!

This might be an unfair review in a way just because my gf and I only chose two things to pick at because we knew we were going to be in deep conversation and not really there for eating. But their happy hour is a pretty good deal, we went on a Saturday and happy hour is from 5-8pm. We had gotten 2 carafes of soju, which you can mix the flavors up at no additional cost. We opted for Lychee and Yogurt, and it was delicious. Pretty sweet so we were cautious and pacing ourselves because soju tends to creep out of nowhere.

Foodwise, we only ordered regular fries and cheese corn. I know - we really didn't order ANYTHING but we would've wasted it if you saw how little we picked at everything. The fries came on a huge plate which we were not expecting, and the cheese corn was on a half size hotplate. We also still got some banchan which was nice too.

They were playing emo music almost the whole time we were there, which was from 5 to about 915pm which we didn't mind at all - it was just interesting considering this is a Korean joint! Lol I'm sure they switch it up depending on the night cuz 3/4 of the way through the night, they did switch to EDM. I did like that they actually utilize the call service buttons because its just easier than trying to flag down a server or having someone come by every 20 min checking if you're alright. Considering how deep in conversation we were, and how long we were there (almost 4 1/2 hours), it'd probably end up getting irritating from both sides. Lol.

I definitely would come back and try more foods, especially during happy hour because it was such a good deal. For everything, my girlfriend and I paid under $30 each. Granted, we didn't order much but because of that, we were able to properly enjoy the night without feeling like it'd break the bank.

My husband and I came here last night around 10:45 pm and really LOVED it! Really great late night food options and service was great!
Heres what we ordered:
Fried kimchi dumplings: they're HUGE. We were expecting typically dumpling size but they were like 5 bite-ers. I loved most that the meat inside was small pieces insides of one big chunk. Loved the dipping sauce too.

Kimchi pajun with shrimp: we requested the pajun to be made like this since it wasn't an option on the menu and they did it. Tasted delicious, crispy and flavorful. Also a massive portion. Came with the same dipping sauce as dumplings.

Veggie bibimbap with tofu instead of Bulgogi: SO so good. We asked for extra sauce.

What we didn't like: the banchan wasn't my favorite. I usually loveee banchan but just didn't really enjoy the ones we were given. Of the handful we received, the Korean potato salad was my favorite.

Also, I didn't feel that the place was super clean. It was late, probably a long night but still I felt it could be cleaned a lot.

I gave a 5 because we would definitely come back and also felt like they deserve a higher rating on here. But overall it was a 4.5. Really enjoyed, def worth a try!

Favorite was definitely fried rice and corn cheese and galbi and area 51 shoju. Fried rice had so much mixed that added the flavors. And it was such a treat to get a flaming birthday shot.

Unfortunately the bulgogi was dry and the women's restroom stall was messy and cannot lock.

Still Id comeback for that fried rice

Min Sok Chon is a classic place to eat if you and a group of friends are craving Korean food on Convoy. With unlimited complimentary rice and sides, you're sure to walk out of here stuffed! I especially enjoyed the gizzards and pork bone jungol, but I would advise against getting the fries for the price!

Additionally, the vibe here is immaculate and they offer karaoke rooms that you can rent out for your party.

Great late night spot for drinks and food! We ordered soju, seafood pancakes and tteokbokki. The pancakes were loaded and delicious. Tteokbokki also hit the spot and you'll love it especially if you love jalapeños. One of the best parts was maybe the large free rice we got. Service was quick and the vibes were fun. Would definitely come back!

Great late night spot in Convoy! My friend and I were hungry after a night out and this was one of the only places open. Our expectations were absolutely exceeded. It is rare to find a restaurant in SD that serves such high quality food so late at night! We got the corn cheese, soju (mango and strawberry), shrimp fried rice and my friend got bulgogi. The service is quick which is also super nice. We absolutely loved everything. The items are expensive but you honestly get great quality AND quantity. Especially with the soju, you get a huge amount given the price. Def recommend checking this place out, esp if you're having a late night. Food is sooo tasty!!

My husband and I usually get off late from work and it's tough to find places that would normally still be open, luckily this place was open late and it seems like it's a place to be for night owls. The place was very popping lots of people coming and going, we didn't wait that long for a table probably maybe about 10 mins and we got seated right away, the inside was pretty cool took me to like a hut in a village, what's even more cool and that they have private rooms for KARAOKE! And I'm a sucker for karaoke, will definitely come back here with a group of people on the weekend to try it out. Food was amazing! The fries was very crispy with mouth watering flavor, the corn cheese was soo sweet and cheesy, short rib was delicious and tender, we also ordered this seafood stone bow which was even more tasty on top of that everything was pretty big, probably enough to feed about 2-4 people but since it was just me and my husband we had left over to take home. Price was pretty reasonable for the amount and the service was great! Our servers were friendly and nice and very attentive and helpful with the menu. My husband and I will definitely come back again!

Good food, place looks fabulous live the decorations reminds me of a Japanese house. Would recommend this place definitely coming again
