“I've been going to Maria'a since I was a kid. My parents, when they arrived to the US from Mexico would go there and so did my aunts and uncles and cousins. Now I take my kids to eat there. The restaurant has always been the same with great quality food and great service. Maria's restaurant is a gem in the community and will hopefully be there for many more generations. Don't sleep on this place, give it a try.“

“​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Akai Asian: A Must-Try 5-Star Experience!
​[Disclaimer: This review is brought to you by a self-made professional food critic reviewer!]
​From the moment I stepped into Akai Asian, I knew I was in for a treat. The warm, inviting ambiance and the sight of happy, cordial diners immediately set a fantastic mood. I felt genuinely welcomed by the staff, who guided me through their extensive menu—and wow, was I blown away by the selection!
​For my first visit, I ordered the Chicken Bento Box, and it was easily a 5-star dish. It was a well-balanced masterpiece!
​The box featured a delightful salad with corn, which was perfectly topped with a nice sesame seed oil dressing—it was incredibly savory and very tasty. It also included four delicious California rolls. Alongside these were some fried veggies and fried shrimp. They were very pleasant; not overwhelmingly greasy or heavy, but perfectly fried right to the bite. Lastly, the star was the delicious chicken served on top of fresh veggies and rice. Everything was perfectly prepared, showcasing the high quality and fresh flavors of Asian cuisine.
​Akai Asian is a delightful setting with stellar service and truly exceptional food. I highly recommend it!“

“The signature dish is the crab in sauce, which comes in medium and large sizes. medium is two crabs with two bowls of rice, and large is three crabs. Compared with other Korean restaurants, the sauce crab taste is mild, and it will not be salty enough to explode in the middle of the meal and cannot continue to eat. The crab is fresh, not fishy, and the meat is firm, not squishy. The crab meat is also very full, the crab legs are full, there is no empty shell crab. The sea urchin rice is a little smaller but the sea urchin is enough. regular sea urchins are not particularly sweet, but they are fresh and worth the price. The sea urchin Rice bowl combo will be served with steamed eggs, runny eggs and two prawns in sauce. Raw marinated salmon rice is amazing to me. The salmon is marinated just enough to be flavorful, but not overly salty. The portions are generous. You can eat two bites of each piece of salmon.“

“I like the beef combo & definitely will be back again“

“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.“

“GREAT FOOD ALWAYS~ BEEN COMING TO THIS RESTAURANT FOR DECADES~ MAMA'S COOKING IS THE BEST!!!! Pollack Casserole Steamed Cod Fish Seasoned Pork W/Veggie Seasoned Oysters must try~♡♡♡♡♡“

“Whenever we visit Los Angeles a night at Origin is a must! The atmosphere is fun, the staff is friendly and fast, and the food is to die for!“

“Good service and experience for Korean BBQ.specially the rice paper loved by many diner.“

“Surawon tofu house is my favorite place ever. I haven't eaten something here that didn't blow my mind. Soontofu: FIRE BQ Slice Ribeye: FIRE Sides: FIRE
Barely Tea: FIRE Corvina: FIRE. The combo of tofu and an entree is incredible. And incredibly priced. I LOVE SURAWON TOFU HOOUUUSSEE“

“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!! 🦑👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️“

“If you’re chasing premium Korean BBQ in the heart of K-Town, this spot is one of the more elevated experiences in the neighborhood. 🇰🇷🔥 Jeong Yuk Jeom translates to “butcher shop” — and that’s exactly the vibe you get: hand-selected, dry-aged and wet-aged beef cuts cooked over charcoal that deliver rich flavor and juiciness worth savoring.

The restaurant’s interior is sleek and spacious, perfect for groups or date nights, with good ventilation so you don’t walk out smelling like a grill.

Upscale, flavorful, and memorable Korean BBQ in LA.
Would go again? Absolutely — especially for the dry-aged beef and unique dishes you don’t find everywhere. 🍷🥩“

“First time here my family like it especially unlimited brisket“

“No doubt this is among the best fried chicken in LA!!“

“The best AYCE Korean bbq restaurant. Meat quality is top-notch. They grill the meat for you but still allow you to enjoy the food at your own speed. I tried almost every meat and my favorite is the marinated beef rib with bone. It melted in my mouth. I love it and will come back.👍🏻“

“Delicious all you can eat Korean barbecue!! Will be back!“

“Great kbbq place with fresh ingredients and a wide variety of side dishes. They don’t have AYCE here, only combinations — I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of food for the one we got. The kimchi fried rice was good, and the meats were all very fresh and tasted delicious with the accompanying sauces. The servers were also more involved in the meat grilling, even for those of us who had experience kbbq before. They also had fun robots around to bring out and take away dishes. We made reservations, which I’d recommend as it was pretty crowded when we went.“

“This place also has a long history in Koreatown. The food is impeccable.
The prices have gone up, but if you're craving dongchimi noodles and meat,
this is the place to go. The meat is all delicious, but the prices have gone up significantly compared to before, so you'll have to settle for beef tongue or Gilmok Gui. It's a place you'll return to for the taste.“

“Best, the best , Korean bbq in LA… Cali, USA! First time bbq in K town reminded me of the bbq I had in Soowon South Korea- the headquarters of korean bbq. Generous too: 1 order was enough for 2 people, came with a salad, soup and panchan.“

“Amazing food. Plate licking sauces, organic,locally sourced food. Korean fusion. Did I mention organic pickled everything. Enzyme rich food. Beyond healthy. Humble little hope in the wall run by a husband and wife team. Dude went to Korea to study with the most famous vegan nun chef in Korea. A must go to for anyone who loves food and especially loves fusion with organic and very well priced. He should charge Much more but they don’t.“

“Delicious meat cooked at the table!“

“Honestly… no notes

Hidden gem in busy ktown
The sides are generous and delicious
The mains are flavorful and hearty
What more could you ask for

I can’t count the number of times I’ve gotten takeout here. Favorites include kimchi fried rice, kimchi stew, and their fishes, but all of them are hits

Highly recommend!“

“The OG. the tastiest. the smokiest. the best. don't wear your favorite new sweater. ladies tie your hair back. and get down.“

“I’ve heard about this place before and all the lore that came with it being one of K-towns gems. I had to come and try it out for myself, what I can say is that truly and honestly it’s one of my favorite spots to eat at. You don’t come here for the frills or the fancy seating you come here to eat good home cooked food. I ordered the combo mudfish and soup meal and boy was I in for a treat the fish was perfectly cooked and all the banchan was perfectly prepared. The Kimchi brewed in house daily and the soup to perfection.

I will for sure be coming back soon!“

“The food and service were amazing. The meats and options they have here are very unique and delicious, up to 32 different options. The person who gave us our meat was nice and caring. As some side notes, if this is your first time going to Korean BBQ place, you cook your own food so make sure you know how to cook meats, also the music they played here is pretty good!“

“amazing food and good for family“

“Good food and fast service.“

“Really good kbbq i loves their marinated kalbi and yukhoe, they also had really good banchan and good sake; the ambiance is also really nice since they keep the place bit dim its a great place for date night, taste wise its just as good as many of the ktown kbbq’s that Ive tried, the staff was super friendly as well, highly recommended“

“Didn't know they had more than one restaurant in the L.A. area. This is the second one we tried and it didn't disappoint, it was just as good as the first time and second times we visited the Koreatown location. The service, the food, everything is great.“

“I really want to give it five stars and I may come again in the future. The food is great, to be honest, the pork shoulder and mushroom rice is enough.“

“Very affordable and chill place to swing by with friends after work. The owner is very sweet and all staff is very attentive and care that you're having a good experience.

Place is open late and definitely recommend for a casual hang out with friends!“

“We ate inside at the counter and tried a little bit of a few things off the menu. The sweet & spicy fried chicken and fried chicken dumplings were delicious. 😋🍴 We also tried the bulgogi and spicy chicken bowl and both were so delicious. As a side note, the man that waited on us (not sure if it was the owner or not) was very nice and hospitable. ☺️“

“their foods are good.. i like it..“

“I know chef KI from meteora restaurant way before and now he have his own .

“Great experience and reasonable price“

“Everything taste great whether it’s Original or Spicy. Whatever is your flavor, can’t go wrong either way. Good portions at affordable prices.“

“Attended this restaurant for a late lunch. I enjoyed my time dining, very clean, they play Korean music. Definitely a place to bring friends or family to share food portions, I feel as if the price is justified due to the portion. Food + Drink about $40 per person. Soju berry highball is the perfect sweetness. Will come back to show my family this place 😄I really liked the kimchi! Below attached photo of bulgogi hot dish, as you may observe it's served in a traditional stone pot.
- from a Latina lol“

“This place is the coolest, yummiest hidden gem 💎 in ktown!! My waiter was fast and attentive. My favorites were the Rigatoni, honey butter chips, tuna dip was fire and the soju selection blew my mind because I’ve only ever had the flavored green bottle.

The fried chicken was very tasty too! Next time I need to try the beer and other menu items. I found metered parking nearby but there is valet service in the back!“

“Delicious 👌 the greatest meal at Korea town LA“

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

“The food here is Top Notch! My favorite is the #13 Gamjatang and #16 Wooguji Galbitang. Soups are flavorful and loaded with lots of meat! They don't skimp on the ingredients here! Love their kimchi!

Restaurant is clean and spacious with bright lighting.“

“loved Sun Ha Jang and their simple menu of duck korean bbq!!! the duck is soo good with the picked sweet onions and salad and the fried rice they make in the leftover duck fat is the perfect ending to the meal. service was warm and can’t wait to go back.“

“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.“

“Ordered the Galbi-jjim and it was so tender and flavorful! The ribs were fall off the bone. Add cheese for extra flavor and a fire show. The side dishes were tasty. Service was good.

Will be back to try the soup and other dishes!“

“Food was so delicious. Exactly how I wanted the tteokbokki to taste and the fried chicken wings were crispy and full of flavor. We got the sweet & spicy and the garlic. Service was amazing! Very nice and quick to accommodate. I’d bring my Korean parents here. Will come back again!“

“Straight up delicious and authentic Korean food.“

“Wait the food is so good. I wish my tummy could fit more food. The side dishes buffet bar is surprisingly good you have to practice restraint from filling yourself up with it. This place has all the dishes you can want from a Korean restaurant!“

“Chi Chi LA is one of the most fun restaurant experiences I’ve had in Los Angeles. The coolest part is the interactive screens at every table where you can play games and compete with other tables in the restaurant. Our table ended up battling another group and everyone around us got into it. It turned dinner into a full on game night and had the whole place laughing and cheering.
Great energy, great crowd, and a really fun vibe all around. If you want a night out that’s more than just eating and drinking, Chi Chi LA is definitely worth checking out. It’s the kind of place where you go for dinner and end up staying way longer because you’re having so much fun.“

“Total vibe and great value ! Got a bunch of different things to share for the table - a bunch of skewers, kimchi pancakes, soups, short ribs etc. awesome place to go on an evening out with friends without breaking the bank. Low key vibes love“
