What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
La Salud is celebrated for its authentic American BBQ and exceptional burgers, particularly praised for their fresh, homemade buns. While many find the portions generous and the flavors true to American style, a few reviews mention high prices and small portion sizes, with one diner noting the absence of free water. Despite minor critiques, the restaurant is a highly recommended spot for those craving a taste of home, offering a retro diner ambiance and convenient lakeside location.
"Can’t believe I came to Korea from Texas to have one of the best burgers in my life. My favorite is Shake Shack and I believe this may be just as good in a different way. I got the pork belly burger and it just hits different! The real kicker is the home made buns they serve you, has to be one of the best buns I have ever tasted. It’s airy fluffy and most importantly, it has the right amount of toast on it. Staff and ambiance was definitely an American, almost like a small version of Rudys BBQ. Next time I’m in Korea I’ll be back here again!"

"Pretty decent American bbq-joint. The ribs are by far my favorite. The portions are big, and match the prices. The location is great, and it is a perfect place to go after a walk around the lake."

"First hearing years ago the name, thought it was a Mexican restaurant. But It's actually an American style BBQ restaurant and the place has now been renovated to have a retro style American diner vibe. The barbecue and BBQ sauce is pretty legit and authentic... Probably the closest thing to American BBQ back home... The beef brisket sandwich was delicious and not too badly priced for a lunch meal. Service was great and the friendly waitress was able to take our order in English. Definitely recommend if you are craving some good ole American style barbecue!"
