If I had to choose just one place to eat in the area, always always seoul sausage. The galbi poutine fries and their galbi sausage, sooo good
I love you, Seoul Sausage. I tried both Galbi and spicy pork sausage.They were both really tasty but if I have to pick one, I choose Spicy pork sausage. It was really good with apple cabbage slaw. I think slaw added more flavor to it. If you are in the area, you MUST try this place because I guarantee you're gonna love it

The winner of The Great Food Truck Race (Season 3) in store form? Well, my co-blogger and I decided we must try it! Overall, I had a great experience. I'm not sure if I think it is the most amazing thing ever, but it's definitely a good meal. Let's start with the sausage. We got the Galbi sausage and while it had a good mix of flavors and overall I liked it, we both think it didn't have the kick to put it over the top. The sausage didn't seem "meaty" enough. Moving on to the balls... This was my favorite item we ordered! It is a fried ball of goodness with rice, curry spices, potato, and (I think) some type of meat. It came with a garlic mayo sauce that complimented each piece of the ball well. In addition, we ordered the KFC (Korean Fried Chicken), not to be confused with that fast food place. These came with cornbread on top. I enjoyed this dish, especially the spices and crispiness of the chicken. Lastly, I must talk about the water by the box that I loved. Water, in a box...strange, but it works (and is better for the environment). Go there and try it for yourself!
Don't expect a huge menu when you come (or very much seating), but their limited offerings are what works! The sausages are good, the poutine is great (but greasy, be warned) and the balls are fun. The seating really is limited to a couple of short bars inside and two tables on the sidewalk so I recommend getting it to go.
Stopped in for lunch and a spicy pork sausage.
The menu is pretty simple and straightforward, this isn't Wurstkutche, so you don't have to decide between too many options.
The spicy pork sausage with apple slaw was good.
It had a nice snap, mild heat, and the slaw complimented it well (not sure how apple-y the slaw was supposed to be, it seemed pretty normal to me).
I wish there were some condiments to add to kick up the heat or something.
I tried the spicy pork sausage, and it was decent but somewhat forgettable. The flaming ball, which is kimchi fried rice, spicy pork, and cheese, was savory and very unique. It came with this good, mild sauce, which saved the ball from being too dry on its own. I would go back for the "flaming" ball.
Saw them on the food truck race
Their locale is a tiny little space
Their poutine
Is so good it's obscene
Their spicy pork sausage is
Why they're in biz
I didn't find everything amazing, their Jim Chee balls I thought would be amazing but need to give it another try. A whole lot of their food is down right tasty. And that's why I give them a solid 4 stars.
Seoul Sausage is seriously so good. The Galbi Poutine was a perfect fusion of korean beef on top of french fries with onions, radish and I don't even know what else. Instant food coma. Flavors definitely get to be a bit much after awhile, but I loved it.
I also had the Lil Osaka which was a ball of fried curry rice served with some dipping sauce. SO good and a perfect level of tolerable spiciness.
Yes yes, it is expensive for what you get but I liken it to getting fusion food at a food truck (which is how they originated anyway). Pricier but good quality unique food. I'll be back for you soon, SSC. Hopefully on a day where Sawtelle isn't as crazy packed (does that ever actually happen?)
The kalbi burger was yummy. Cooked on point & juicy.
The 2 kinds of fried rice balls. Flaming balls is the most popular & it is also my favorite out of the two.
The kfc chicken wasn't great at all & it wasn't worth 8 bucks.
The place is extremely small and can only seat a few people.
This is a sausage company that is on the go! I was lucky enough to try it when they hosted the Super Bowl of 2012 in Los Angeles.
They had two options at the event - Spicy Pork and Galbi. The spicy does have a kick to it at the end and galbi one is slightly sweet. If you ever tried Korean BBQ, you can imagine eating Korean BBQ in a sausage form without all the smoke!
The spread inside the bun has a slight kimchi taste to it that adds an extra dimension to the whole thing. Yum!
This company started in 2010 and I hope it will continue to blossom. Every foodie should definetly try it...this sausage is not like the others!
If you're in the mood for a hotdog, Seoul Sausage Co. is the place to go. There's a variety of choices & you get your choice of chips, potato salad or fruit. I like veggies so I went with the Lotus Dog. My husband had the El Capone, my daughter the Texaa Chili Dog ... Quaint, homie atmosphere. The desserts looked delicious but I was too full to try one.

Yong is pretty dang kool. As one of the owners of Seoul Sausage, he was manning the register upfront and greeting all the customers with a hip hop hello. I instantly got the awesome-vibe from him.
Seoul Sausage is located in Tokyo Sawtelle (aka the Little Tokyo of the West). Parking is a bit of a chore here, but there was complimentary valet parking on a Wednesday night. The other alternative is street parking, but you're just rolling the dice on that one. For some reason, the wall artwork captivated my dining buddy, but us non-artsy types would probably go: "hey, that wall is not white and I think that's KOOL!"
-=-Galbi Sausage-=- There are 2 offerings of sausage here and I tried them both. Galbi would be my favorite. I'm not a sweet freak, but I really appreciated the balance here between the garlic jalapeno aioli and the sausage. If you don't know what the fusion here is all about, it's all in the sausage - you'll taste it as if you were grilling galbi on a kbbq grill.
-=-Spicy Pork Sausage-=- Another popular KBBQ meat, but this time the sweet and savory are flipped. The sausage is the spicy component and the the slaw is sweet. The pork was not the intense kind of spicy, but I taste the fusion I guess. If you're a spicy pork lover, you'd be right at home.
-=-Galbi Poutine-=- These are money. Everything with fries and cheese, and meat...are money. Maybe lacking a bit in the meat department, but not everything can be as awesome as Carne Asada Fries.
Great, delicious Korean fusion food. Small menu, we've tried everything and enjoyed it. Galbi poutines are a must-try. Not a lot of seating space but all the food is served ready to take out.
You know why there's always a line out the door at Seoul Sausage? B/c the staff are completely personable, and the food is fatty and delicious. My girlfriend can't stop eating the Lil' Osaka balls and sausage (heh) and da KFC. It's a great place for a quick and sunny lunch.
Was there for lunch when the restaurant was empty but got bad service from the Phillipino waiter. I had to ask the other waiter for drink and check. The food was good but small portions.
Was there for dinner and the "sister" that served us was excellent: he was proactive by refilling drinks and getting us the check without us having to ask for anything. Had Da KFC dish and it was so tasty with a little bit of spice and sweetness, and the tater tots came out very hot, a pet peeve of mine are cold French fries but this place makes it fresh as you order it.
My friend and I were waiting to be seated at another restaurant so I went hunting for a snack to hold me over. I had the spam musubi ball and my friend had the kalbi sausage. Both were really good, although the spam got a bit salty towards the end. It was a good snack. Too bad we were waiting to try another restaurant because I would have loved to try the galbi poutine, sounds amazing.
Seoul Sausage Co's twitter is a siren song of spicy pork belly, Korean fried chicken with kimchi and of course sausages. I love the colorful inside mural and really does it get any better than being able to just go ahead and order sausage and balls. 5th grader me is giggling away.
