Korea has a rich culinary history, and SOT brings the best of it straight to Inglewood.
We take the techniques, flavours, and traditions of Korea and elevate them with locally-sourced ingredients, creative presentations, and a dedication to excellence.
THE SOT TEAM
We’ve Got Seoul
We’re more than a team – we’re a family of food lovers bringing you the true taste of Korea.
Alex Sang-ho Kwon
Born from a love of the flavours he grew up with, Alex Sang-ho Kwon brings heart and intention to every dish at SOT.
As chef and co-owner, he combines Korean culinary roots with the best of Alberta’s local harvest, crafting food that feels both familiar and new.
His cooking reflects a belief that great dining is about connection, care, and sharing culture through flavour.
NH Kim
Chef and co-owner NH Kim has been at Alex’s side since SOT opened its doors, playing a vital role in shaping the restaurant’s modern Korean identity. NH honed his skills working in restaurants in Korea and Australia.
His dedication, calm leadership, and collaborative spirit continue to be essential to the rhythm and soul of SOT’s kitchen.
What a Sot (솥) Is
In Korean, sot (솥) is the traditional heavy pot used to cook rice, soups, and stews – the heart of the kitchen and a symbol of warmth, care, and shared meals. Our name celebrates that tradition, bringing the same spirit of comfort and togetherness to every dish we serve.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes! We’re happy to accommodate guests seeking gluten-free dishes. Many of our menu items can be adapted, and our team can guide you to the best options so you can enjoy the full SOT experience without compromise. Just let your server know – we’re here to make your meal safe, satisfying, and delicious.
Is SOT a family-friendly restaurant?
SOT welcomes all guests; however, our dining experience is best suited for adults and older children. As our space and atmosphere are designed for a relaxed, refined experience, we may not be the ideal setting for young children. We appreciate your understanding as we strive to maintain an enjoyable environment for all our guests.
Can you host my private event?
Yes! We offer private event options that can be tailored to your group, whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or corporate gathering. Our team will work with you to craft a memorable experience, complete with curated menus and attentive service, so your event is seamless and unforgettable
Can you provide catering for my event?
We sure can! SOT provides catering for gatherings of all sizes, bringing our bold, authentic Korean flavours straight to your event. From full meals to shareable appetizers, we can customize a menu that fits your needs and makes your occasion special. Contact us to discuss options and logistics – we are excited to bring SOT to you.
What’s the parking situation?
SOT is easy to get to whether you’re driving, cycling, or walking. Metered street parking is available right outside the restaurant, and there’s a convenient parking lot at the west end of the block. If you’d rather skip the hassle, we recommend taking an Uber, cycling, or enjoying a stroll through Inglewood to arrive relaxed and ready to enjoy your meal.
