I am surprised at how low the reviews are. This is personally my favorite korean-chinese fusion restaurant. My favorite is the jjamppong.

It's in the review below, but I think the cashiers' attitude here needs to be fundamentally corrected. I ordered Jjajangmyeon on Saturday morning, but since they don't mix the sauce all together, I asked them to put the sauce in a different bowl, but the kitchen said they didn't like it and wouldn't do that. Is that such a difficult ask? So I decided to serve it separately, but ended up just pouring the sauce over the noodles. And when I asked for a regular bowl to lessen the sauce, what is the spirit of charging extra for it?Is this really the boss's policy or is this the cashiers' arbitrary actions? If it is the boss's policy, then it should be corrected. If it is not the boss's will but the attitude of the cashiers, it would be good to correct that as well. And I hope it tastes good, so if possible, it would be better if you take this opportunity to do something about it.

Sweet and sour pork is worst I ever had. Does not taste good at all. They made tang su yok using katsu pork meat. It’s really hilarious. Don’t waste your money. Careless food serving.

Ordered mapo tofu and some spicy chicken. Definitely the worst mapo tofu I’ve eaten. Chicken wasn’t that much better. The food was so terrible for the price we paid for.

What's really ambiguous here is that the jjamppong is really delicious, the ingredients are freshly used, and even the sweet and sour pork is much more delicious than last year. But the cashier was very unfriendly and said she would take away the leftover jjamppong, but she insisted on charging me for the soup bowl... haha. It's a strange place where you feel good after eating well, but then feel bad when you leave. Does anyone decide before eating whether or not I will have leftovers and ask them to toss it in when ordering? It's not like they charge more for packaging if you order it (but it doesn't make sense to charge more for packaging at that price.) Even if it's expensive, if it's delicious, I'm the type of person who happily pays, but I was ridiculous when I was trying to pack up the leftovers after eating well, and they said they would charge 50 jeon more for the radish packaged soup bowl. I said I only have a card, so I'll buy two haha. Buying two is $1, but $1 is a card and 50 won isn't it, right? Hahaha. Anyway, it was a ridiculously unpleasant place in many ways. Boss, did you read it? please think about it

Just ordered tang su yuk, which is the fried pork with sweet sour sauce. I have waited about 25 minutes after ten orders from other places have been served. Not only that the pork seemed to have gone bad, it tasted sour and the batter was filled with excess grease from not being fried properly. Now I'm suffering from massive diarrhea, I hope the owner gets it together.

Never coming back. I asked a worker for an extra plate, but they didn't want to give it to me because they had other use for the plates. This made no sense to me... They are also cheap with their togo container. They charge .50 cent for a small container. Price of the food is not even cheap. You should just go to a restaurant instead of the food court.

location & parking: the food source is located at The Source OC! i believe this place is the food court on the second floorfood: went for Chicken Time & ordered a beef bulgogi kimbap roll ($11) and 9 pcs of garlic soy sauce fried chicken wings ($18) for two people. overall the food tasted authentic and flavorful and pretty good! service: came on a sunday afternoon for lunch and it wasn't busy at all. the weird thing tho is that you have to order & pay at one central cashier or at the kiosks near them and then when your food is ready you go grab it youself from each little restaurant within the food court. then when you finish you put your own trays and dishes on a rack near the trash bins. not a bad concept i'd say!vibes: the ambiance is very mall food court, but its pretty clean and even has cute little claw machines for the kiddos lol it is VERY korean tho ahhaha they have hella authentic korean street food options if h that's what you're looking fornote: they have sooo many food options so take a good look before you order!overall: 5/5 star first time experience tbh, idk why the reviews are so low! i had a dandy time

food is garbage and manager & workers all suck. Never coming here again. I suggest you don't either!!!!

When you take into consideration the price, food quality, portion sizes, ambiance, and accessibility, food court is massively disappointing. Also, it is absolutely slammed with families for lunch.

This place looks like a food court, but it isn't. Order is in 1 place in front, then they'll call your number and pickup at the designated counter.Not allowed to bring outside food and they will definitely call you out on that. Personally I'd rather go to the real food court upstairs.Lots of korean food option but taste is whatever. We got jjampong, $17 and the seafood are kinda overcooked. They're pretty stingy with napkins too.

The lady with pinkish hair at the "Best Menu" area was very rude. When we got to the counter to order she told us to wait so she could rant on the phone to her friend. We had to awkwardly stand there to wait for her to finish complaining to her friend about her job. This was our first time here so we didn't pick up the food and she gave us a sassy attitude when we asked for help. The food was not great. There's consistent loud speakers of calling number orders which got pretty annoying overtime. I do not recommend ever coming here.
