50 Best Korean Restaurants near Inglewood

“Portion sizes here are undefeated. You get so much chicken in the small bowl. The grilled chicken is juicy and hot with a unique teriyaki sauce that steals the show. I really like their short grain rice as well. Great post-workout meal.

I used to frequent the Long Beach location and this spot tastes exactly the same thankfully. Area is a little rough but the store itself is clean and inviting.“

“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.“

“Love this place! The food is very authentic and high quality meat. The servers are also very tentative. We ordered the small beef combo. The soup at the end is very tasty but we are way too full. It can serve at least 3-4 ppl. Def recommended!“

“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~♡♡♡♡♡“

“Our favorite (non AYCE) Korean bbq (thanks to our friend Heny for the recommendation) Great quality of meat, great service, and great ambiance. So many other options if you’re not feeling Korean Bbq, we like to order their soup and spicy cold noodle. And we love that it’s located in our favorite Madang plaza in Ktown.“

“Such friendly staff and one of the best hot sizzling Bibimbap dishes i could wish for!

“全世界最好喝的牛骨湯！拜託一定要嘗試，大火久燉絕不馬虎！太喜歡了！
The best soup ever! And the rice is really good as we’ll even take-out. My friend said their kimchi is authentic and surprisingly delicious(I don’t eat kimchi so.)The staffs there are welcoming. There are only sells the beef bone soup, after you tried you’ll know why. Because they just want to make a product the best, but they do it! Even though i don’t have soup often,this time i finished it all. It’s really worth visiting again!“

“Tonight we were blessed by the presence of Royce 🙏 He greeted us with care and was super nice. We purchased the Ahgassi combo and everything was super delicious because it was cooked well by Royce. We also ordered the Dae Gopchang and the Yook Hwe (raw meat) which were also delicious. The meat was well attended to and the atmosphere was very chill. The music playing in the background was great because the playlist was FIRE 🎶🔥 If you want a good experience at this restaurant, you should definitely request Royce to cook for you! He made our first dinner in Los Angeles an unforgettable one! 🫶“

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

“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.👍🏻“

“I went to CheongGiWa with my family of four and ordered raw sirloin, raw galbi, and cold noodles. Ssam vegetables and various Korean side dishes were served as basic, and all the food we ordered was delicious. Both the owner and the staff were kind, and the atmosphere was bright and good because it was remodeled.“

“amazing food and good for family“

“Delicious meat cooked at the table!“

“This is the K town classic. It first opened in 1982. Since then it became the place to get authentic Korean BBQ and signature dongchimi noodle. I still remember the first time I tried their noodle and I was so blown away. When it comes to dongchimi noodles, they are on the top tier.“

“This place serve the best Galbi in all of koreatown. Well, galbi is in their restaurant name, I see why. It's so delicious, tender and so flavorful.their side dishes was great as well. We also love their galbi tang and cold noodles. definitely a must try spot.“

“I have been going here for a while. Food is consistently good. The owners are very kind. Food is not salty but flavorful but just in case you want it salty they do have salt and pepper on the table. My girlfriend and I love to choose number two and number three in the menu.“

“So far I have tried the spicy Korean fried chicken bowl, pork belly bowl and japchae, all of delicious. Always fresh. My toddler only likes japchae from an AYCE kbbq in Garden Grove, but she has approved of yours. 10/10 every time. I am always greeted with a smile. I will keep coming back.“

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

“In winter, it’s loach stew! I came here to eat loach stew, which was plentiful and good for body health. I come here every year before winter to eat it, and the ladies and uncles were all friendly and the service was good! Eating it with neat side dishes and neat kimchi is the icing on the cake, and it's great for warming up in cold LA :) Instead of loach stew, I personally recommend loach bulgogi :)“

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

“Their Gukbap is superb felt like it was different version of gukbap more spicy and different broth compared to a traditional pork based creamy broth

My friend had their cold noodles and said it was lowkey mid so not sure what’s going on there… so eat the gukbap instead. Their Jeon is great and Mandoo is great too“

“I came here with my family to eat and everything was perfect. The lady greeted us with a smile as soon as we walked in and we were seated immediately. We ordered EunDaeGoo Jorim and Gajaemi and they were delicious. Definitely recommend this place and became one of my favorites.“

“Great qualities of meat selection and a bunch of other types of excellent qualities of food. Definitely a place to go to celebrate and for special occasions. The beef, especially the galbi, the shrimp, takoyaki, and everything is fantastic. We can grab most of the food and the premium food came out very fast. Will definitely come back.“

“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!! 🦑👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️“

“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.“

“Craving homey, flavorful, and authentic Korean meal? Look no further than JunTong SulLungTang! This cozy hole-in-the-wall delivers on the most amazing Sul Lung Tang (Korean Ox Bone Soup)!

Located in a free parking lot (a rarity in Ktown), this unassuming restaurant is small but cozy. The interior is simple and unassuming but the food packs a punch!

Their Sul Lung Tang is flavorful, rich, and simmered to authentic perfection. You can season it to your liking and add as few or as many green onions as you prefer. The banchan (side dishes) are simple but tasty. The kimchi is just … yum! Whether you are under the weather, feeling like eating something homey, or looking for your next authentic Korean meal, JunTong SulLungTang will most certainly satisfy your cravings!

The staff is extremely nice and friendly. They are also attentive despite always being busy.

Overall, JunTong SulLungTang is a not-so-hidden gem for authentic Korean food that won’t disappoint!“

“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. ☺️“

“Good food big portions. Fast service.“

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

“Busy and noisy -- but very tasty. I like a place that takes you at your word when you say you like spicy food.“

“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!“

“Really good food worth of your money😊“

“One of the few restaurants that stays open late!

The food is delicious and offers a variety of options. I ordered the 닭도리탕(chickenstew?) combo with 알밥 and soju. The price was $5x, which I think is a great value.
They also served free popcorn and free ice cream !!!

The staff provides good service and super friendly!!! ✌🏻
The atmosphere is great, and they play K-pop music! It feels just like being in a bar in Korea.

There is parking available behind the restaurant, but it's very tight.
- street parking is recommended

My new regular spot ! Highly Recommended 🫶🏼“

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

“their foods are good.. i like it..“

“The food is was too DIE for!! First time coming here and it won’t be the last. If you’re looking for a taste of Japan this is the place. The staff was so kind and made sure to help us out. Everything was just such a nice experience, do recommend for anyone in the area.“

“I was really craving the jokbal I used to eat in Korea, and this place delivered exactly that taste! The meat was tender and chewy, perfectly seasoned—just like back home. The kind and considerate service from the staff made the experience even more enjoyable. The kongguksu (soybean noodle soup) had a rather mild flavor, not particularly rich, but it was decent and ordinary.“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“My sister and I were in LA for a convention and decided to celebrate her birthday dinner at Genwa. We ordered the course for two, and every dish was fantastic. The spread of banchan was plentiful and flavorful, and the BBQ meats were cooked to perfection. Anna took such great care of us—she answered all of our questions and even helped with the grilling, which made the experience extra enjoyable. We never felt rushed and were able to take our time savoring the food and the whole KBBQ experience. To top it all off, the staff surprised my sister with pandan ice cream and sang happy birthday, which made the evening so special. Highly recommend Genwa for both the food and the service!“

“Kabawoo House is hands-down one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Los Angeles. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm, welcoming service that instantly makes you feel at home. The atmosphere is cozy yet lively, and you can tell the staff truly cares about their guests.

The food is out of this world — every dish is packed with flavor, made with fresh ingredients, and beautifully presented. You can taste the passion and attention to detail in every bite. I especially loved how generous the portions were without compromising quality.

Whether you’re coming for a casual meal or a special occasion, Kabawoo House delivers perfection every time. I left already planning my next visit. Highly recommend to anyone in LA looking for amazing food, great service, and an all-around fantastic experience!“

“Honestly it felt like Korea - clean, modern, everything delicious. Really good portions, too! We got the mille feuille beef thing and it was really fun and the dipping sauce was delicious! Dolsot bibimbap came in a low, wide stone pot providing a lot of surface area to make crispy rice and keep it warm. Banchan was good! Kiddo crushed the fish cakes and japchae which are usually bland and left aside. Will come back!

Kid-friendliness: High chairs, booster seats and ajumas who get you ?“

“The spicy brisket soup was satisfying. Not too salty and not too spicy. The glass noodles were the perfect chewy texture. The purple rice was amazing as well. The side dishes were fresh and crispy. I especially liked the kimchi. Highly recommend the dumplings. Hard to find this quality.“

“excelente Servicio.. Satisfecha 👏❤️“
