“The Vons Chicken is so delicious. If you like spicy, yangnyum should be your go to wing flavor. If you prefer no spice, I’m a big fan of the padak wings. They’re always pretty quick. The only challenge with this place is that it’s kind of a Vons ghost kitchen (you can’t eat it there). Just plan to take your wings home or to the nearby Crown Memorial Beach Park or something and you’re all set!“
“HUGE portions and quiet ambiance. The restaurant is usually moderately empty (at least every time I have been there) so service is quite fast. I know Don Blanc does not have the trendy/hip factor that Oghane provides, but I have always had a great time dining in.Restaurant layout is very standard Korean BBQ - with large tables and grills in the middle. Some of the tables have a large cast iron grill that's reminiscent of cooking on a large rock, which is kind of fun. We always get either the Beef Set A bbq or the Pork Set B bbq, so cannot speak to the other menu items. The side dishes (banchan) that role out are so delightful--particularly the steamed egg (reminds me of my mom's cooking). As far as quantity of meat--you will not be disappointed. I have always returned home with leftovers.Eventually I will order the traditional bbq intestines, but I have not had to courage to do so yet...Parking can be quite tricky especially on weekends because everyone is fighting to get a spot for either Moo Bong Ri/Koryo Sushi/Jaguar Karaoke. I appreciate the security guard who works there because he sometimes provides valet-esque type services and allows people to double park cars or park unmarked areas. I have also always been able to find street parking.Overall, if you ride up to Moo Bong Ri and find that the wait time is just too long and you are just too hungry, I suggest you pop over to Don Blanc. You will not be disappointed.“
“This barbecue restaurant is a true hidden gem! The service was incredibly prompt, and the staff's passion for their craft shone through. The food was a culinary delight, from the perfectly smoked ribs to the delectable sides. The cozy ambiance, with its wooden furnishings and soft lighting, created a relaxed atmosphere that was perfect for unwinding. I left with a full belly and a big smile.“
“THEY HAVE SOLO AYCE. If you are a traveler in need of KBBQ, this is the place. I had the bulgogi, galbi, brisket, squid, corn cheese, soondubu, japchae, banchan (I was hungry) and all were satisfying, while the meats were really good. Kimchi was a little too tart (seemed over-ripened, not sure it's made on site) but totally decent, japchae and soondubu likewise weren't as good as a normal korean restaurant but great as accoutrements. Service was fine and I liked how they asked if I wanted 1 or 2 galbi pieces. Brisket was lean, bulgogi and galbi marinades were spot-on. Legit meats, legit smokey and dim interior, and now I have to return home out of state where none such experiences exist for a solo diner.“
“All food that we ordered were so great!! Especially, Stella’s garden(shabu-shabu style pot dish menu) and Rib&corn cheese were above the beyond. Me and my friends had a great time in this restaurant and were planning to visit again soon.“
