Overview
Following the closure of its original location in October of 2023, SOUL Dining has finally reopened in a new site with its familiar elegant charm. You'll now find the brainchild of Daero Lee and Illa Kim serving up its sophisticated Korean eats on Carrington Street in the heart of the CBD.
Previously residing in Surry Hills, the original eatery opened in 2018 to serve modern Korean cuisine, fostering plenty of adoring fans while opening a series of sibling restaurants in Bar SOUL and SOUL Deli. Now residing in a brand-new location right by Wynyard Station, SOUL Dining has returned with an abundance of tasty dishes for you to try.
"We are thrilled to embark on this exciting new chapter at Wynyard and continue our mission of showcasing the best of Korean cuisine in a contemporary setting," said Executive Chef and Owner Daero Lee.
The Carrington Street outpost dons its familiar dark ambience, maintaining its signature blue and charcoal theme splashed across its interiors, paired with velvet seating and gold accents. Whether you're in for an intimate date night or a classy night out, SOUL Dining's newest outpost provides the perfect setting.
SOUL Dining's menu still features its original ethos, starring traditional Korean flavours and dishes through the team's unique lens. There's plenty to dig into on the menu, from Korean staples to desserts inspired by nostalgic sweets reminiscent of Lee and Kim's childhood. Returning menu highlights include the kingfish in kimchi water, while there are new items to discover on the refreshed menu like the scallop bori-bap — a common Korean rice dish with vegetables and soybean paste.
The drinks selection has also undergone a revamp, with Head Sommelier Liz Dodd bringing experience from Altitude Restaurant at the Shangri-La Hotel to create an exciting new wine list. Plus, the cocktails menu still features the much-loved Melona and Sesame Sour.
You'll find SOUL Dining's newly reopened eatery at 50 Carrington Street, Sydney — open for lunch and dinner Monday–Saturday. Head to the restaurant's website to make a booking or for more info.
