Sooda's induction grills and neon at Amazing Brentwood, where you cook bulgogi side by side and argue over the honey-butter fried chicken.
Brentwood
More infoSooda is the glossy, neon-washed end of the Korean BBQ spectrum, tucked inside Amazing Brentwood with induction grills built right into the tables. You grill your own bulgogi side by side, which conveniently covers first-date silences. The sleeper hit is the honey-butter fried chicken, the order you start sharing politely and finish arguing over. Induction means no charcoal smoke follows you home. No reservations, so arrive early.
There are no reservations, so arrive a few minutes early to claim a table with a grill. Order a marinated bulgogi set to cook together, then, this is the move first-timers skip, add the honey-butter fried chicken, which quietly outshines the BBQ. The induction grills keep the smoke down, so you can actually look at each other (and your photos will glow under the neon). Budget around an hour and forty; it's inside the Amazing Brentwood, so the mall's shops and the SkyTrain are right there for wherever you go next.
