One standout feature of Sa Rit Gol is its impressive variety of dishes, expertly crafted to cater to both meat lovers and vegetarians alike.

Guestbook
“ Went with some friends and was the only vegetarian- they have one dish (the bibimbap) that they can make without meat! The gochujang sauce might’ve had fish extract or I forget what that isn’t vegetarian in it, so they gave me soy sauce and sesame oil as substitutes to give the bibimbap some added flavor. It was really good!! Always thankful to places that offer a solid veggie option for vegetarians, and this bibimbap was it. Also they serve complimentary barley tea, which is always a plus in my book. ”
“ It’s been so long since pandemic. Fort Lee has been changed a lot, i mean good changes. Streets are quite clean and nicer. This restaurant is good for price and food quality. Our family were really satisfied. Although there was MSG taste a little , overall taste was good and great amount of meat inside!! ”
“ The food here is incredible! Almost everything is homemade, the portions are super generous, and the staff are so nice! The broth for the kimchi soup has such a rich flavor. Also love that they serve barley tea water, most places don’t do that anymore. Can’t say enough great things about this place, highly recommend! ”
“ I came to Fort Lee and had myself a day. I visited this place for lunch and it was delicious. I got the Spicy Pork Rib Soup and it was flavorful and so filling. It came with three sides and a bowl of rice. The kimchi sides were all so refreshing. ”
“ Really yummy and amazing for the value and quantity. Loved how crispy and juicy the mackerel was, definitely fresh! The gamjatang was hearty, where the meat fell off the bone, quite spicy though. Sul lang tang was even more incredible, where the broth was rich but not heavy, where I loved how much variety of the meat they put, even adding the beef collagen which was chewy and flavorful. Oh and the abundance and variety of kimchi being served is so appreciated, balancing everything together. In terms of the service, they were super sweet, giving us recommendations and making us feeling welcomed among the locals there! ”
