It felt intimate and very korean, the waitresses spoke hardly any English the service was great though.

If you want the kind of Korean comfort food that wraps you in a big cozy blanket and whispers, “You’re home now,” Jang Mo Jip is the place.
Nothing flashy, no Instagram gimmicks — just steaming bowls of hearty soup, beautifully chewy dumplings (I LOVE their dumplings, they’re my ride-or-die here), piles of fresh kimchi, and honest, satisfying flavors.
The atmosphere is no-frills but exactly what you want when you’re craving soul-warming sul lung tang or a healing haejang guk.
The banchan? Solid, classic, and plentiful. You leave full, happy, and with the kind of quiet joy only a truly good meal can give.
Not trying to impress, just trying to feed you well — and that’s what keeps me coming back.
Comfort food at its finest.

Whenever I am in oc this is my first stop. They open early and I love a comforting beef bone soup or ginseng chicken soup.
.
First time I came here I was craving the pig feet slices with kimchi and radish plate, which was soooo good with the brown bean miso paste.
.
The soups here is comforting and I love how clear the broth is. They have a whole bowl of green onions too. Which I go crazy and filled my bowl until it is green.
.
The refreshing ice tea they serve is sooo good and refreshing.
.
The refill on the bonchon is my favorite touch of the meal. I love the prices which is average and not over price. Love the fast service on the food.

It is located in a Plaza with plenty of parking. There is a korean grocery next door too. They even have a korean bakery shop too. It is a must come and visit if you are in the area. Thanks for reading. Have a yelptastic day.

After our adventure to SoFi in support of a USWNT win against Brazil, we were hungry. We didn’t have a destination, so we considered all our options. Thanks to my future son in law, we found Jangmo Jip. When we walked in we noticed the place was empty. Definitely not a posh setting but clean and hospitable. We where greeted with a very big smile. I didn’t get her name but I think she was the owner. We sat down and we tried to understand the menu as best we could. Ultimately I ordered based on the pictures. Damn I was not disappointed, soup was so flavorful. The pickled radish was crisp and the kimchi was great. This was a total immersive feel, we couldn’t communicate fluently but one thing that for sure came across was warmth and hospitality. Definitely cant wait to bring wifey to this local find.

The process of making food is so ~ dirty. Now that I know, I can't eat it. I used to eat it several times a month. I want to throw it all up.

Love everything about this place. The food is always great, but also the ladies taking the orders have always been so welcoming and accommodating.
I used to go to this restaurant because the kimchi was delicious, but I was disappointed because the kimchi was too sweet, bland, and lacked seasoning.
Don't know what some of these low reviews are on but this place was great. It's a restaurant known for their seolleongtang, an authentic oxbone based soup. They cook the bones for hours until the broth becomes milky white and rich and top it with meat and noodles. The table will have a jar of salt and a jar of green onions so that each person could season their own dish (this is normal in Korea) and each meal is provided with side dishes (approximately four, again normal for seolleongtang) and healthy purple rice (this is high quality and more expensive than your standard white rice). I don't normally eat Korean food outside of my home because most restaurants disappoint me but this one deserved five stars. Would come again the next time I am in Cali.

Solid Korean soup spot that I’ve been going to for the last 20 years. The kimchi is solid and they serve the Korean rice punch at the end of the meal.

Best wholesome Korean food you can get. They've been consistently amazing for about the two decades that I've been coming to get food from here. Their dine-in is wonderful and they package their take-outs very securely. I'll never stop coming here when I need comfort food. <3
Parking: Pretty easy most of the time.
