Blue Ginger Korean Grill & Ssh

Though their business address is listed here as in Seattle, their restaurant presence is actually in Bellevue on Northup. Korean food seems to be much more difficult to find on the Eastside than all other Asian restaurants. Luckily, this Korean BBQ restaurant just opened up a couple of months ago and offers both barbeque and standard Korean fare. The prices are decent for Seattle, (but expensive compared to places like LA), and they have a wide selection of Korean foods and drinks. For those who dont know, the meal starts out with some small plates of a variety of pickled vegetables as appetizers, and kalbi is a pretty tasty (and standard) cut of meat to order. This place packs up quickly, and they dont take reservations on the weekends, so arrive early.
