very good
My friends and I are visiting and wanted to try a good Korean place. This place was amazing! The service was great, they checked on us regularly and helped cook our food. The amount of food we got with how much we paid was worth it. Definitely recommend and would come back the next time we visit!
Best kbbq in town
This is best kbbq in town, they also have duck BBQ which is so unique
If you live in California, this is the Korean BBQ spot you absolutely have to try. Out of all the duck BBQ places I’ve tried — in both Korea and the U.S. — this one was hands down the best. So delicious!!! They serve a huge variety of delicious side dishes, which is already a reason for me to come back!!
This is DELICIOUS (gaejonmat). Banchan is sooo good too..!.!.!.! I wish we have this kinds of restaurant in colorado🥹. It's been a while that i ate intestine so loved it and it also tasted the same as i used to eat in Korea!!! Because it was so delicious i couldn't stop ordering alcohol 😆 please drink soju with this!!!
Much needed girls day and family time.
Parking: There’s a private parking lot. Finding a spot can be a hit or miss.
Ambiance/Environment: Vibes, music, and great food all around. They have a small space with a decent amount of indoor seating. We visited right at opening, so we were seated right away.
Service: Shout out to Jenny for the hospitality! She even cooked the duck and mixed the kimchi fried rice for us. Some servers speak only Spanish, and others speak Korean with enough English to get by.
Foods: We got the Duck Combo with Kimchi Fried Rice added on. The Duck Combo came with kimchi pancake, steamed egg, soy bean tofu soup, corn cheese, banchan, and of course grilled and spicy seasoned duck mixed with rice cakes, potatoes, mushrooms, and chives. There were lots of duck pieces, and they were cooked well. Make sure to dip with one of their sauces for more flavor! The kimchi pancake was crispy around the edges and soft in the center just as I prefer it. The steamed egg and corn cheese tasted as expected. The soy bean tofu soup tasted light and delicious. The kimchi fried rice was entertaining to watch as Jenny was mixing everything for us. It was sooo flavorful; the kimchi flavor was on point!
Pricing: The combo was definitely worth it! It was more than we expected lol. Portions are shareable at least between 2-3 people.
Gopchang. Daechang. Makchang. oh my god!! I love the smell of charcoal fire😍😍😍 I will definitely eat duck next time. There aren't many places that sell raw duck, but I finally found it.

This restaurant specializes in dishes made with fresh duck meat and gopchang (i.e. intestine). With high-quality ingredients and meticulous preparation, this restaurant truly exceeded all expectations.
The meat was tender and juicy, showcasing the natural flavors of fresh duck without any unpleasant odors.
The gopchang here is prepared with exceptional care, resulting in a clean, rich flavor that melts in your mouth. Grilled to perfection over charcoal, it has a delightful smoky aroma and a slightly crispy texture on the outside while staying juicy inside. As a Korean, I can say that the taste of this restaurant's gobchang is something most Koreans can't help but love.

This was my first time at Kko Kko and it was delicious!! Super flavorful and juicy! Kko Kko is THE spot to visit if you're looking to try some homemade, comforting, Korean food. With the classic Korean jams playing in the background, you and your group are bound to have a good time. Plus, the owner is amazing!! She always provides excellent service and is super friendly. Be sure to stop by for some good eats with HUGE portions and immaculate vibes!

Now there is an amount of food and sensibility that you don't find in Koreatown. I found this place while I was thinking that there were no good tripe restaurants in Koreatown because all they had was tripe with sweet seasoning, but unlike other tripe restaurants in LA, the tripe here doesn't cover it up with too much sweet seasoning and preserves the original taste of the tripe. I really like it❤️
The makchang is not tough and is very soft.
The steamed egg and soybean paste stew are served in very small portions at other restaurants these days, but they are served in very large portions👏
If I want to eat tripe in the future, I will go here even though it is a bit far.👍👍
I’ve found a place with the kind of portions and vibe that you just can’t find in Koreatown anymore. I used to think there weren’t any good gopchang places left because everywhere I went, they’d drown it in sweet sauce. But this place really lets the natural flavor of the gopchang shine through without covering it up with overly sweet marinades. I love that!
The makchang isn’t tough either—it’s tender and has a perfect chewy texture. They also give you a huge portion of steamed egg and doenjang jjigae, while most other restaurants serve tiny portions these days.
Even though it’s a bit farther away, I’ll definitely be coming here whenever I crave gopchang!

I am definitely 💯 coming back here with more people, for the food, but also because the owner is so great. She brings the vibe to the restaurant. Great hospitality from her and the team.
Let's talk about the delicious food.
This is not an ALL YOU CAN EAT spot, which means it is higher quality meat. Nothing but the best. And you will be able to taste it in every bite.
The intestines was absolutely amazing. It went so well with their garlic sauce. I asked for more and the owner gave me a instlof it :)
Towards the end, you have to get thr kimchi fried rice. Make sure to save some gopchang and Daechang to mix it in with

It’s different than common KBBQ chain, this one is a gem! Family owned, cozy vibes KBBQ that offered duck & intestines making it stands out than the rest!
The owner is so friendly and cooked for us, very convenient so we don’t have to cooked. We ordered duck combo- the banchan is so fresh ( kimchi pancake, soy bean paste soup, steamed egg..) the duck is so fresh! The owner grilled for us with garlic, mushrooms, chives… very flavorful. I can taste it is high quality right away. At the end there’s kimchi fried rice which is a good combination
I would definitely go to this one again!
Parking: It’s a small parking lot but it’s right next to the restaurant
