Seoul Noodle Shop brings authentic Korean culinary artistry to Suntec City's Atrium Convention at #01-301, establishing itself as Singapore's pioneering kalguksu specialty restaurant under the expert guidance of renowned Korean celebrity chefs Lee Won-il and Hong Seok Cheon. This intimate 50-seat establishment offers diners an immersive experience with its open kitchen design, allowing patrons to witness the meticulous preparation of handcrafted knife-cut noodles that embody centuries of Korean culinary tradition. Operating daily from 11am to 9pm, the restaurant has quickly gained recognition for its authentic approach to Korean comfort food, featuring generous portions that deliver exceptional value while maintaining the authentic flavors and techniques that have made kalguksu a beloved staple throughout Korea.
The comprehensive menu showcases twelve distinct varieties of kalguksu, each featuring perfectly elastic and chewy handcrafted noodles served in deeply flavored broths that reflect the restaurant's commitment to authenticity. Standout offerings include the signature Pork Bone Spicy Noodles featuring a massive pork spine with fall-off-the-bone tender meat, the hearty Big Rib Bone Noodles, and the innovative Singapore-exclusive Busan Shrimp Noodles that ingeniously combines fresh shrimp and fishballs in a broth reminiscent of both local prawn noodles and traditional Busan seafood soups. Additional specialties include the rich Half Chicken Noodles, warming Bone Broth Noodles, and the unique Fragrant Perilla Noodles served in a creamy sauce infused with finely ground perilla seeds, alongside interactive dining experiences like the Cheese Dakgalbi where mozzarella cheese is dramatically torched tableside.
Seoul Noodle Shop elevates the dining experience beyond exceptional noodles by providing authentic Korean accompaniments including handmade kimchi, pickled radish, and doenjang dupbap (fermented soybean paste rice) with every bowl, creating a complete and satisfying meal that honors traditional Korean dining customs. The beverage program features unique offerings like the signature Makgeolli Ade combining traditional Korean rice wine with Chilsung cider, and refreshing Yuja Ade for non-alcoholic alternatives. With additional treats like Kimchi Dumplings and Mini Gimbap available as sides, the restaurant creates an authentic Korean dining experience that has quickly established itself as a must-visit destination for those seeking genuine Korean comfort food in Singapore's bustling business district, though early arrival is recommended given its well-deserved popularity among discerning diners.

The founders origin set the stage of expectation for me! Being a serial fanatic for Korean cuisines and culture, I’ve been wanting to try it but was a little afraid of being let down..
Having just got back from Seoul, we wanted to reminisce so - Tuesday 6 May x 5:15pm.
Service : 1/5
Severely lacking, nothing like Seoul. The faces were all solemn and we weren’t offered water..I didn’t ask and found out by overhearing from the next table that we had to get it ourselves outside (outdoor area) - hmm service charge ..?
Albeit, in South Korea not every establishments are at all smiles but there is 1 distinct fundamental - Passion to feed. This very passion placed the pride of Korean food on the world stage. The pride of Korean cuisine is also shown in the generosity of ingredients & their awesome banchans (which is lacking here).
Taste : 2/5
Portion : 1/5 for the sides
Food was visually appealing, tasted otherwise sadly. 💔
Perilla noodles : 1/5
Portion is good but sadly it was bland, absolutely no sweetness from the base broth (traditionally kelp & anchovies). It was just a singular note of dull nuttiness from the perilla seed powder.
Spicy squid pork bulgogi : 2/5
Portion is good. Somewhat the saving grace which was why I rate it a 2/5. The squid was superbly done thank you. The server took my request and conveyed it to the chef to reduce the spiciness - reason why service was rated a 1/5 instead of 0/5.
Kimchi Mandu : 2/5
Good ratio of fillings but it was under-seasoned.
Banchan : 1/5
Tasted pretty good yes.. but hey portion wise is a little lacking..
The atmosphere is alright, music weren’t too loud can chat comfortably and the temperature indoors were cool. Cleanliness though..needs work, the tables were sticky and had bits of leftover food at the corners.
Conclusion : Disappointed. I won’t be returning, with this price point there are better tasting Korean restaurants to indulge. Side note.. imho Service is 70% success, even if the food is lacking in taste, customers will continue to support you for that so I do hope you’ll look into this and I wish you all the best!🫶🏻

Food was yummy. Pork Bone Spicy Noodles was amazing. Even though it was not big bone noodles, meat that came with it was already pretty generous. Noodles was nice and chewy.
The pork jowl rice soup set came with this sauce with anchovies or something - which paired pretty well with the pork jowl.
Overall a very good and happy dinner! Oh, and the free flow self-serve barley tea was the best. Come early as well as the queue can get really long.

Overall food are nice and feeling like local Korean also. Tried the pork bone and dumpling, very big portion and delicious! Only comment the noodle seems overcook but still acceptable. Price reasonable and suitable to have gathering at night time without crowd!

First time here and there were abundant of seat including those outside seat. It was quite nice to be seat outside with the giant ceiling fan. I tried the beef rib noodle soup which was very fresh but the soup would be even nicer if hotter. Will be back to other dishes.

Portion is big. Esp the spicy pork soup. One big pig spine in your bowl.
I personally like the cold noodle as my fave. It’s cold and long and you can use the scissors to cut it off. Then you pour more mustard on the cold meat and dump the kimchi together. Nubbad combi.
The other two soup ones comes with a surprise half a bowl of rice. For you to add after you slurped up all the noodle and the bone. I thot the rice is somebody eat halfway cuz it’s like half thru the bowl, then not the usual like one rounded shape, just piak liddat so I thot is ppl eat halfway. But its decorated like that and part of the whole. They garnished it with some rice condiments, and the rice is actually quite nice I like. They gave one glove (not a pair, one ☝️) for you to hold the spine and eat like the caveman you already are.
Overall the soupy ones the portion too big (maybe cuz aging milennial can’t eat as much like last tiem). So good to share.
Enjoy my pics of sunset and gaga concert cuz I want to get the free dumpling
