“One of the most iconic spots in Koreatown!
The soup arrives with customizable add-ins like green onions, red pepper paste, and minced garlic, letting you tweak the savory depth to perfection. Sides of banchan (kimchi, pickled radish) keep the table lively and flavorful.“

“Ordered the seafood and leek pancake with the assorted mild tofu soup combo and mild wasn't really spicy which is great since I cannot handle too much spice. My friend got the cold noodle jjol myun and it was quite spicy. The banchan (side dishes) were delicious and we asked for refills!“

“This place is soooo EPIC!! So epic the cast of Parasite movie ate here after winning the #Oscars! Nackchi bokum was the best I ever ate but everything was authentic and delicious!! 🦑👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️“

“One of if not the best Korean restaurants I been to. Food came out real fast and was very filling and tasted great! Service was amazing, Ken really did a great job in helping to serve us, helped with giving us recommendations, brought extra side dishes quickly, and was very nice & funny as well! Will definitely be back for more!“

“I fear that sometimes, we all give high ratings to vegan restaurants, despite their being less than great, just to be encouraging for the team. This place, however, is legit amazing. Flavorful, fresh, and a wonderful, genuine bowl of noodles. If you’re on the fence, wondering about the authenticity of all of the glowing Redwhite Boneless reviews, I would just give it a try.“

“Hands down one of my favorite Korean restaurants for years. The food just tastes amazing. Well known amongst Koreans for a reason. I always get the bulgogi and dongchimi noodles. The dongchimi noodles are a must when coming here, it’s what it’s best known for. Paired with their bulgogi, the experience just gets better. I’m not one who likes sweet, soy based marinated meats, but this place does it so well. Their marinade is not too strong or sweet, the meat is soft. Dip it into their nutty and savory sesame oil? Game over. The combination is just amazing. Please try these two together! Highly recommend. Yes, the bulgogi is a bit pricey, but it hits and the meat is so soft.“

“KOREAN COUNTRY DINER
Loved this new find in K-Town that serves great Korean Home Food. Reminds me of the countryside restaurants with “mom food”. Everything was good. Special shout out to their Yukgejang, one of my faves. The White Bean Noodle Soup was ground fresh. The Cutlass Fish. The bottomless Ban Chan and Kkak Doi Gee is good!!! Can’t recommend this place enough and can’t wait to try more of their dishes.“

“A 4 in one location! Loved the variety of the different type of foods! The soups were delicious, the smash burger smelled good(didn’t taste it was for my young son) which he said was good, the arugula salad so tasty and the pink power salad was indescribable(that good) definitely coming back again. The young lady who took our order was so kind too!“

“I should've just come here first.
The lobster quality is great with thick claw meat and a nice sized pickle. The tomato bisque isn't bad, but I'll try the clam chowder next time.

Good Lobster is hard to come by since COVID. On splurge days, this is a really good choice. The people are cool too.“

“อาหารอร่อย บริการดีมากๆครับ 😇🙏🏻“

“The stars aligned. We were overjoyed to find a BOB vegan restaurant, inspired by grandcestor Dr. Sebi's alkaline nutritional guide. Highly recommend Beyond Vegan - Culver City. The food was flavorful. My friend ordered the namesake quesadillas, and I ordered the jackfruit tacos with mango salsa. Double the flavor - we shared our meals. Yum! The portions were large, filling, and pleased my soul. What I thought to be a side of mashed sweet potatoes was warm, smooth mashed beans. Tacos and quesadillas on point. Purple wild rice was a delightful surprise. Diversity in texture, flavor, colors, and quality ingredients. No better way to catch up with a friend than eating outdoors at Beyond Vegan!“

“My first time and very satisfied. I ordered pork soup with rice and it is soooooo good!“

“I’ve been struggling to find a decent Tonkatsu, but this one is among the best Ive had in the US. I’m not an expert in Japanese cuisine but I have been to Japan a few times an this place is within striking distance of the average tonkatsus I had there. I’ll be back when I’m in the area“

“Staff friendly and awesome Thai foods“

“Chichen Itza is a local gem; a real, honest cocina Yucateco. I often find that even if yucatecan cuisine is on a menu of a restaurant, it may be half hearted, perhaps assuming the flavors and heat won't sell. Absolutely not the case her

Chichen Itza is a small, but confident showcase. There is consistent high quality to the food, which is artfully prepared and served. The dishes include delicacies such as: Cochinita Pibil, Poc Chuc, Relleno Negro, Agua de Chaya, and others. Humble, basic ingredients from the earth and sea, crafted into dishes possessing impeccable flavor and soul.

For those wary of high scoville numbers, the heat is restrained, but you can lay it on too and enjoy the wonderful flavor that can be harnessed from the Habanero.

As it is within a food court, and there is the intensely popular Holbox next door, the smell of ceviche and other uncooked seafood can be present. Finding seating can be challenging as well. Do not let this keep you from going.

Park on the street, and ignore the line out the door for Holbox. The food, and the people of Chichen Itza are worth every effort to come enjoy.“

“Kai Ramen absolutely hit the spot. The broth was rich and flavorful, the noodles were perfectly cooked, and everything tasted fresh and authentic. The portions were generous, the atmosphere was cozy, and the service was friendly and fast. You can tell they really care about quality here. Definitely one of those places that makes you start planning your next visit before you even leave!

Pro tip: add an extra egg and get a side of gyoza; perfect combo with the ramen!“

“I’ve had pho in about 6 different states. This was the best I’ve ever had! Bravo! You guys deserve it! Thanks for letting us visit! 🍲“

“Delicious Udon and other Japanese specialties“

“What you don't know is the menu can be a bit redundant. Besides the sandwiches, everything is a variation of itself. I fount the Boureg to be some of the best I've ever had. This is definitely a lunch spot, the bites are pretty small. I like this casual, large glass windowed eatery.“

“I love this pho spot! The ambience is great. The customer service is speedy and you are immediately given a warm welcome as you step in. The food is also really good (although I’ve only ever ordered number 4, the steak and brisket pho 👌🏽). I did try a bit of the shrimp pho when my mom ordered it, and it was good, but I’m more into beef than seafood, so that’s just personal preference. Definitely check it out. This was where I tried pho for the first time and it hits the spot every time.“

“their foods are good.. i like it..“

“Delicious 👌 the greatest meal at Korea town LA“

“We had a great experience at our first time visit here. We celebrated my son's birthday and brought in a cake. The food was amazing except for the Alaskan salmon that they substituted from what we originally ordered. They have an all day happy hour on Monday to Thursday. The service was excellent and the servers even sang happy birthday when they brought out the cake. The place was nice and clean and it wasn't crowded when we dined. The only problem was the people on the next table were too loud and there was no wall dividing them to our table so the guy sitting behind my son's girlfriend keeps on bumping into her every time he moved. We will definitely go back here.“

“My Favorite Thai Restaurant. They serve authentic, freshly made Thai Food. Some of the entrees are not in a lot Of Thai Retairant like the Shrimp Paste Rice or the Stewed Leg Rice. Service is friendly and felt sincere. They also have premade Thai food that’s very authentic. This place is such an underrated hidden gem.“

“I made a trip to this spot after seeing the great reviews, and overall was ok. The restaurant itself has a nice atmosphere, and the service was pleasant.

We ordered the ribs combo pho and the brisket and meatball pho — both bowls had a solid, flavorful broth that hit the spot. The ribs wasnt that amazing. The egg rolls were crispy and well-seasoned. Thai tea was also great.

My main gripe is the meat portions felt a little skimpy for the price — I expected a bit more generosity in the bowl. At around $60 for two people, it’s on the pricier side for pho, which did temper the experience slightly.

That said, the quality is clearly there. If the portions were bigger or the price a touch lower, this would be an easy five stars. Worth a visit, but go in with calibrated expectations on value.“

“Came in for the first time a few years ago because I was interested in the "twice-fried noodles" (tsuivan)... was instantly hooked. Everything here is just produced with so much attention to detail and served with such charisma. Highly recommend, also try the salted milk tea 😁😁“

“I had dwaeji-gukbap, and I highly recommend it.
There was no unpleasant pork smell, and the thickly sliced meat was very tender.
The pickled perilla leaves served as a side dish were especially delicious—I recommend placing them on the meat and eating them together.“

“It was late in the evening (past midnight) and we waited for over 45 minutes for our food, but the order came out wrong. The older lady with short curly hair was very rude and disrespectful. The only reason I am giving it a 5 star 🌟 is because of Jerome. He was very sincere, apologized and made it right.“

“Great food, location and service“

“JunTong SulLungTang is a cozy Korean restaurant in Los Angeles known for its authentic sullungtang (beef bone soup) and other traditional soups like galbi tang and haejangguk, served with house‑made kimchi and rice that many diners find comforting and flavorful. Customers often praise the rich broth, generous portions, and friendly service in a relaxed, no‑frills setting that’s perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner any day of the week. While it’s a simple spot, the hearty soups and classic Korean comfort food make it a go‑to choice for warming up on a chilly day or satisfying cravings for traditional flavors in Koreatown.“

“The Best Kimchi!

I think this place is known for their bossam dish, but I actually haven’t tried it yet. What keeps me coming back is their fresh napa kimchi — it’s crisp, refreshing, and incredibly flavorful.

The dolsot bibimbap is good too, though I wish the rice at the bottom was crispier to give it that deeper toasted texture and contrast.

I’d say stay away from the mandoo guk, though. It’s not seasoned properly at all. The broth is overly salty, the meat is overcooked to the point where most of the flavor is gone, and the dumplings don’t taste fresh — they seem frozen. The dumpling filling is actually overseasoned, which clashes even more with the salty broth. The whole dish falls apart because the flavors don’t complement each other. It feels like there wasn’t much thought put into balancing the broth with the dumplings and glass noodles.“

“Test its by yourself.clean foods and good service“

“Came here with a group and had a lovely experience! The parking lot is valet only but it's only $4. The hospitality was awesome and all the meat was amazing especially the pork and extremely tender galbi! Loved the pancake and soups as well. Lovely service! She brought us free soju and soup as well! Highly recommend this place for great atmosphere and BBQ!“

“OMG I loved the experience. Heaven bless this sweet, nostalgic restaurant. The Korean lady who served me was very friendly and caring, the atmosphere reminded me of family. I tried their breakfast with seaweed soup and the food was delicious. The side dishes are homemade and have many varieties. 100% recommend 💖“

“All Korean menus are okay. I feel like I am in Seoul, South Korea..🥰🥰“

“Rich Crab is AMAZING! Everything tasted so fresh and flavorful. The crab was incredibly delicious and sweet, and the monkfish stew was rich, spicy and comforting!!! And I have to say… their house kimchi is the best in the whole Koreatown. Highly recommend if you want fresh seafood and real Korean comfort food.“

“hands down my #1 korean food joint! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“I love this place! I used to live nearby and i stumbled in right at opening time my first day. they have a wait if you're going at popular times. Small strip mall parking.

wow, i became a loyal fan of the cheonggukjang, which i never had before. The owner is kind, and it feels like we're being taken care of like I'm at their home.

i am not korean, and especially at that early time 10 years ago I was often the only non-korean... but when they saw me eating cheonggukjang not bbq, i got some nods of approval 🤣 One korean man came up to my table after i ate once and asked me how i know this soup because it's controversial with even koreans.

But i loveeee fermented foods. and honestly, anytime i was sick this soup made me better in a day. I miss living so close to it, i have to make special trips to go now.

I tell all lovers of korean food to go here!“

“Glad Hurry Curry has reopened after closing their Sawtelle location. if you are new and don't know what to order, try the chicken cutlet curry and the Chicken pasta with Alfredo sauce. The curry is bold and savory. make sure to request picked vegetables for the curry. the chicken pasta is also rich and savory. both dishes complement each other without repeating the same experience. the portions are large so bring friends or bring home plenty of portions for leftovers.“

“I was staying next door at the Hampton Inn and looking for authentic food. Ms. Nat was so sweet and amazing. The Thai Tea is the best I have ever had. The first meal was drunken noodles with beef - incredible. The 2nd meal was Pad Thai with chicken and thai spice; she added a special sweet & sour spice that made this the best Thai meal I have ever had.“

“A straightforward spot specializing in tofu dishes, with a simple and no-frills dining environment. The space is fairly standard and doesn’t stand out in terms of design, but it’s functional and comfortable enough for a casual meal.

The tofu soup is the highlight and genuinely better than expected. The broth is rich and well-balanced, with a depth of flavor that feels satisfying without being too heavy. The tofu itself is soft and silky, absorbing the flavors of the soup nicely. Portions are reasonable, and the dish is served hot, which enhances the overall experience.

Service is decent - staff are efficient and get the job done, though the interaction is fairly minimal. Overall, this is a good option if you’re focused on the food rather than the atmosphere, especially for a well-executed tofu soup that exceeds expectations.“

“The best Korean restaurant I've ever known in LA. The food is not localized and served just as it is in Korea. Also very reasonable price.
One thing I was not comfortable with was that, the owner lady talked only to my friend (white), and she didn't even looked at me (non-korean asian) when i asked a question.“

“Excellent, clean, attentive, friendly service. Definitely would go back.“

“A must. So delicious. Can't wait to go back!! Thank goodness for friends that share food stories. �“

“What an amazing Olive Garden! I have eaten at quite a few, but this one honestly was the best I have ever been to. The staff were so polite, shout out Saira! They also sang happy birthday with such enthusiasm and Saira decorated the plate beautifully with the words “happy birthday” written in cursive using caramel. The food was delicious, reasonably priced, and the staff and atmosphere were amazing. 10/10 Will be coming again.“
