Some restaurants serve you dinner. Jin Soo Sung Chan hands you tongs and politely suggests you cook it yourself. This Guildford grillhouse has been earning a near-cult 4.6 across more than 2,000 reviews for over a decade, and the banchan never stops refilling, the manager learns your name, and the beef combo for two arrives as a proper mountain: marinated short rib, bulgogi, soup, salad, rice, and a spread of little side dishes you'll keep discovering. The date works because you cannot be on your phone while you're the one managing the grill. Someone flips, someone wraps, someone inevitably crowns themselves grill captain. It's smoky, interactive and impossible to do while doom-scrolling, which is the whole point. Big, generous and completely without pretension, exactly the kind of feast that turns a first date into a third.
