After spending a day at Siesta Keys Beach I found myself wanting some Korean food. Unfortunately it was already late by the time we were leaving and traveling back to Tampa to a Korean restaurant there would take too long. Some searching online helped us find Sam Oh Jung in Bradenton (thanks to Coty S. for reviewing it) and we redirected our course that way. We arrived pretty late (around 9:25PM) and they close at 10PM, but service and food did not suffer despite this circumstance, a true mark of good service.
We ordered two Korean entrees, their Galbi and Dak Bulgogi (around the average price of $20 for each). The food came after only a short wait. The Galbi ribs were heavenly, each bite left you wanting more. It came perfectly off the bone and even the onions that were in the sizzling platter were satisfying. The Dak Bulgogi tasted more like smoked chicken, it was pretty good as well, however it was no match against the Galbi. This restaurant is actually known more for their sushi, but we did not try any during our visit.

We were the last people in the restaurant and they were very polite to us during our entire stay. I am happy to know that a place like this exists in Bradenton and during visits to Siesta Keys or Lido Beach in Sarasota I now know where I can go to get my Korean fix.
