Surrey's decade-old Korean grillhouse hands you tongs, never empties the banchan, and earns a 4.6 from more than 2,000 regulars.
Guildford
More infoSome restaurants serve you dinner. Jin Soo Sung Chan hands you tongs and politely suggests you cook it yourself. This Guildford grillhouse has earned a near-cult 4.6 across more than 2,000 reviews over a decade, the banchan never stops refilling, and the beef combo for two arrives as a proper mountain of short rib and bulgogi. You cannot doom-scroll while running the grill. Someone crowns themselves grill captain.
This is a cook-together date, so claim a grill table and go straight for the beef combo for two, a platter of marinated short rib and bulgogi with soup, salad, rice and a parade of refillable banchan. Sort out who flips and who wraps, over-order on purpose, and don't be shy asking for more side dishes; the refills are the whole point. Budget around an hour and three-quarters, wear something you don't mind smelling faintly of garlic-soy, and ask for manager Andy if you want the warm-welcome treatment. Guildford Town Centre is right next door to walk it off.
