The service is ok , the food isn’t that special and the meat is dry , waiting in line for 45 minutes for this is not worth it . it’s very pricey but the food is not good . Go to sookdal for the best food

Morangak’s cold noodles are the best I’ve had in North America so far! They are very authentic, and the texture of the noodles is perfect! I would love to go back again!

One of my favorite places to get naengmyun. Mo Ran Gak is a name that is widely known to have reputable cold noodles.
When you get a meat dish with naengmyun, they give you a small side dish of the spicy one as well. Or vice versa if you got the spicy, you'll get the broth one as a side.
There is a small parking lot here and usually a line even right when they open.
I would advise on coming early or putting aside enough time to wait 1 hour before being seated on a busy day.

The food is an authentic Korean cuisine. Tasty plus good quality. The attitude of servers are excellent,too. One thing need to be improved is the vibe. Too old and shabby.

Of course, a long wait for Friday night. Very good food and service.
They ran out of the Jap Chae.☹️
We ordered both of the cold noodles.
The meats were very tasty.
Only bad thing, they ask you if you want the bill while you are still eating.

Used to be much better. Side dishes were good but there meat quality and their spicy cold noodle were so so. Also they stopped serving the hot broth drink you get for free with your order.

There was a wait but it wasn’t so bad for a family of 7 - about 15min. They put you on a waitlist but you can also do it yourself at a kiosk outside by door which has an iPad.
Compared to queens NY LA Galbi, it was pretty much the same 8/10. I had higher expectations from LA but it was a let down especially for the prices compared to NYC.
If you don’t get a specific combo, the glabi doesn’t come with any soups or side dishes (such as egg soufflé, kimchi or bean paste soup) beyond the typical dishes or kimchi etc.
However amount of glabi you get, you will get the same number of rice bowls.
Their spicy noodles were great though 9/10.
And the customer service was great - the staff was consistent and helpful; they even gave us a complimentary egg soufflé as our kids asked for it.
They had rice cake square wraps which was new for us - you put glabi in it with a little sauce and lettuce 8/10.
They also had a coffee dispensing machine where you push one of two buttons (with or without milk) and a cup will come down and the coffee will dispense.

If you are Korean you would like other places better. Not a good location: poor service and meat quality.

Best Korean BBQ ever. My boss is of Korean decent and invited my wife the kids and I for dinner. It was unbelievably packed on a Tuesday which is always a good. We only waited 15 minutes and got seated. The food the drinks all of it was exceptional not to mention the staff was amazing. We will definitely be back.

Great authentic Korean
