about sot bbq
Our goal is to create more than just a meal - we create a dining experience centered around quality meats, bold flavors, and memorable moments shared around the grill. From premium cuts to classic Korean dishes and refreshing sides, every item is prepared to bring out the rich flavors and warmth of Korean cuisine.
At SOT BBQ, we bring people together through the experience of authentic Korean barbecue. Inspired by traditional Korean cooking methods, our name comes from the “SOT,” a cast iron cauldron, and the “SOT-TTUKEONG,” or cauldron lid, traditionally used in Korea for grilling meats and vegetables over an open flame for generations.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, gathering with friends and family, or simply enjoying a night out, SOT BBQ offers a modern and inviting atmosphere designed for connection, conversation, and great food.
Located in San Diego, we’re proud to share the tradition and energy of Korean barbecue with our community - one table at a time.
