text: While running errands on Blue Diamond Rd we decided to find a place to eat and we were craving Korean. I Yelped and we got treated to a very cool Korean barstaurant with good drinks and good food. \n\nSoyo was simple and cool. It reminded us of the hole in the wall eateries in Japan.There were 4 cement booths with wooden seats along the back wall. They decorated shelves above the seats with either books, Korean pottery, or empty bottles of Soju. They also had booths in the center, a private booth near the front door, and 3-4 seats at the bar. Some of the other cool decor they had was a rotary phone (for you young bucks if you don't know- Google it LOL), an antique TV, and a couple old school .25 cents games. They were playing some Korean Hip Hop music that got the kids jazzed up.\n\nWe got seated right away in a booth. And the lady gave us some tin bowls. My son picked up a bowl and looked at me dumbfounded, \"whats this for?\" Our waitress tells him its for your tea, my son replies \"I want my soda in it because I don't like tea.\" Hahaha gotta love kids. But , she brings you a bottle of barley iced tea and pours it into our bowls. It was very refreshing. The menu was simple and clean. The foods were seperated in catergories, Entrees, soups, tapas, & casseroles. We love Korean and knew what we wanted to eat, but for the newbie looking at the menu- they would be lost. The menu had 3 columns of the foods, Korean name, one line name of dish in english, and price. They should add more detail in description of dishes.\n\nWe ordered:\n\nKim Chee and Pork Soup- It was spicy, hearty, and damn good. More pork would've been nice. I got jiigae with it LOL!\n\nBibimbap- my liked it but she didn't like it with the ground meat, she would've enjoyed it more with bulgoggi or kalbi meat.\n\nBulgogi- My son loved it. He said it was his all time fave...that raised my eyebrows, so I had to steal a bite. I agree it was very good.\n\nFried dumplings- stuffed with rice noodles, veg, and ground meat. \n\nLychee Soju- They mix this cocktail in a soda bottle and give you a shot glass so you can pour your own. After the first shot passed through my lips...I had flash backs of eating lychee right off the trees in our backyard in Hawaii. The Lychee taste was really good and the soju was barely noticeable...it was like drinking Lychee juice. But, don't let the good taste fool you....after I finished the bottle, the feel good vibes crept up on me LOL! Next time we'll try the yogurt soju.\n\nAll these dishes were served steaming hot in stone pots. We love it like that, its a nicer presentation and it also keeps the food hot, much longer then if it was served on a plate. We got the banchan, daikon & cabbage kim chee, fishcake strips, & bean sprouts.\n\nOverall, the service was great (she was very accommodating to our family-she knew the drill with kids which is a plus in our book), you get a good amount of food for the price, and its a cool atmosphere. Soyo is a great place for Las Vegas. We hope to see more barstaurant pop in the near future.
