The small house was nestled under the propeller-tattooed brow of a sea shell-skinned concrete giant.
Korean bbq finds its home accross the street from CubeSmart.
Sweet aroma of fried fish summons from the parking lot. Sparse vegitation grows at roof top.
The exterior walls are rapped in pale brown stucco finish. Bambo stalks waid in rocks at entrance.
Tear drop hanging bulbs cast light on dark brown/red concrete stage.

Wooden/ceramic mushroom, foax crickets, a dark weighty ceramic pot, and wood-textured-metal elephant all share space on a ledge.
Light wood booths are positioned over aged hardwood floors, afixed with bolted swing doors for privacy.
Steel spoons encased with wooden chop sticks rest on pressed light wood table tops.
Round saucers with sharable toppings are placed before us: pickled jalapeno (really spicy), spicy soy, sprouts, kimchi (mild, short duration pickling), and pancakes.
My plate was topped with fried vegitables and mandu duplings drowned in the deep flavors of bulgogi beef and savory onions; white rice mountain peaks from the saucy plain.

Saw this restaurant had 4.7 rating.Unlike many in this App this place deserved the rating. I tried to pick an off time so to be the crowd.I started with the pork egg roll for appetizer. You could tell they were freshly cooked and I enjoyed them. Main menu item I ordered was Kim Jang Jung spicy chicken. It claimed 30 minutes to fry. It wasn’t quite 30 minutes and arrived freshly cooked. It was definitely more than I could eat- probably meant to share. Had to order rice separately only downside.I was glad I stopped to try this place it was well worth it. Not overly priced like a lot of places inTampa.
One of my favorite restaurant in Tampa, great service, and amazing food and the portion are huge, and the price is good, I think the should be charging more... Recommend to anyone
Absolutely fantastic Korean food. I get the beef bugolgi soup, which has the perfect balance of salt, sweet, and savoriness. It's the type of dish that I only crave MORE after eating it. Maybe its the salt and sugar. Who cares - it's awesome!
Really enjoy the authentic Korean food. The restaurant is a bit pasted together but the food is good. My favorite is mandu guk. My wife and I return for standard pan chan and kimchi chigae.
BEST KOREAN in south Tampa. This place looks shitty from the outside to some but it defines great hole in the wall. The Mackerel and Galbi beef are my go-to's along with seafood pancake & kimchi soup.. Iced barley tea was as well... They now filter their tap water, thank goodness! Good service. You leave smelling like the food but that just ensures you kill your leftovers.
Korean cuisine seems to be increasing in popularity and we noticed that Tampa has a higher than average number of Korean Restaurants than other cities we’ve visited. We recently headed over to Sa Ri One Korean Restaurant in Tampa’s Westshore area for dinner and found the food to be plentiful, flavorful and very unique.
Beautiful korean!. The korean food at Sa Ri One Korean is truly a work of art. Tasted amazing and will definitely come back!
The food was amazing! The outside made me a little wary, but the inside was lovely and very clean. The staff was very friendly and I can't wait to go back!!
Quaint little place. Very basic building, sand parking lot. do not be deceived. the food is authentic, full flavored, and very filling. the staff are fun and bubbly. all the locals know it's the best place in town. don't miss this mist excellent restaurant
I went here yesterday by myself to try it out and it was really good. It was my first time trying Bibimbap and the meat and everything else inside the bowl was so flavorful. The waitress was super sweet as well.
This is so far the best Korean food I’ve ever tried in Tampa Bay. Even more authentic than in New York or California. Every dish on the menu are super delicious . Not only the food are so great, the staff work there are beyond friendly and kind. I believe everyone went there will definitely want to come back again and again. This restaurant is a foodie place. They’re so clean . People who work there are extremely nice like they’re your family. Hands down. It should be rated #1 most unique authentic Korean food in the Nation. I love Sarione!
We came here for lunch today. We ordered the seafood pancake for appetizer, the pork bulgogi and the spicy tofu soup. The pancake and the pork bulgogi were delicious. Somehow, the tofu soup was tasteless. We have had to add lot of salt to bring out the flavor. We could have mentioned to the waiter but we were in the hurry.
We will be back again the next time we are in the area.
Food arrived quickly and was fresh and flavorful. Ordered the tteokbokki, fried squid, beef galbi, jajangmyeon, and oriental chicken. Everything was tasty, but the galbi and chicken were especially delicious. The portions were bigger than expected! Servers were kind and attentive. Great date spot.
My mom is korean and we flew from bwi Baltimore to tpa tampa. The nearest restaurant to the airport, just happened to be a Korean restaurant. Great service, the best food and we left a big tip. When my parents come back, it will be the first stop always
Amazing!! I had the kimchi jjigae and tok bok gi and both were so good. The texture of the tok bok gi was different than any I’ve ever had before but still so yummy. With the banchan flight too it was sooo much food I thought it was gonna be so expensive but the prices were so reasonable. Next time I’m in this area I’ll be back
This is the best Korean restaurant in the area, period. The food is authentic, and the kimchi soup is the best I’ve ever had anywhere, Seoul included. Jay Sook was our server and she was super friendly and helpful with our menu selection. Her suggestions pair well together and hit the spot perfectly. The restaurant is clean and the atmosphere was great. I will definitely go back here again and again.
Don't let the somewhat sketchy looking atmosphere fool you. The food is delicious!
Since the Sa Ri One in Brandon closed, this is the closest one. We don't get to grill our own meat. It's served as is. The menu is around $20-$30. I got the beef galbi which is around $28. I think it portioned well and had thick slices of beef. It was delicious! It's served on a bed of white onions which I didn't really eat. Still has that slight bite of rawness that I don't like.
The rest of my family enjoyed their meals. My brother didn't expect his chicken bulgogi to be spicy though. So watch out for that. Also the seafood pancake came in burnt. We still ate it. It was also missing some salt. Other than that everything was good. The vegetable mandu was very crunchy and I definitely recommend that. They do get busy on the weekend. Lucky to get a table. My dad did feel cramped since they just put a 5th chair at the end of a 4 person table. Had to work with what we got.
Best Korean restaurant in the Tampa/ Brandon are. Food was so yummy we forgot to take pics 🤤 Excellent service - Cynthia is just the right amount of friendly & attentive. Worth the drive from anywhere in the Tampa Bay Area.
