Kbbq to go. Never a bad thing. Came to lbx and wandered around looking for something good to eat. And found it for sure. Give it a try when you're in the hood.

Bulgogi was fantastic! Get the #1, you will not be disappointed! Kimchee is a little spicy...as it should be! Just a heads up if you dont like heat :)

In the sea of choices that you have at Long Beach Exchange, this establishment rises above the rest. I ordered "suggestion #2" spicy thin pork belly, brown rice, and Ssamjang sauce. It was outstanding. The meat was perfectly cooked, the sauce was strong but not overbearing, and the selection of toppings that I selected made for an amazing combination. I also ordered a side of Mandu dumplings. They were crispy on the outside and moist on the inside with savory flavors throughout. Short lines, speedy service, and highly satisfying menu selections make this place well worth a visit.

Spicy pork belly was delicious! Wish there was more meat but no matter where you go they never portion it equally.

I was having a bad day and didn't have high hopes for this place since it seemed like it was just that kind of day. Boy was I wrong! Excellent chicken bowl. The chicken was super tender and tasty. It was very well cooked. The brown rice was perfect and all the veggies were fresh and crispy. Service was flawless. Thanks for turning my day around, Marinate! I'll definitely be back.

To be honest I was had high hopes when ordering here, and I noticed it was a little pricey for the sides and such. So I opted for the burrito and popcorn chicken. My honest opinion is that is average. Flavors didn't really wow me at all. While it was not bad I probably would not eat here again unless I was really craving Korean bbq.

Sooo flavorful I had the bulgogi bowl and it was so fresh, and tasty and the portions were huge. Next time I'll try the boneless chicken (Korean BBQ)

Was able to visit this place inside Hangar and try their Bulgogi Burrito. The place reminds me of a Korean Chipotle, you choosing what sort of protein, sauce, etc. that you want . It was quite easy to order, and towards the front, and easy to pay on the side with Apple Pay. I was only able to try the Bulgogi Burrito like I mentioned this time, while my friends was able to try some of the other dishes. It looked like they packed the burrito with a ton of different things .. Rice, kimchi, Bulgogi, some vegetables and even a fried egg. It tasted pretty good, especially with the spicy sauce it came with, but just a tad bit too salty. Think it is a nice place to have, compared to the other food they have here. I would say this is one of the "healthier" options compared to some other places.

The line can look long, but goes super fast!! The workers are nice and friendly, but also work very efficiently to get you your food so quick :) Food is filling and very yum

Located inside the Hangar at the Long Beach Exchange. You get to choose your protein, grain, greens and sauce. I got the bulgogi , white rice , mandarins and ponzu sauce all was good and is now my go to. The staff was cool. Overall the meat was tasty and all the other stuff was good. I'll be back again.

When I want something healthier, this is definitely one of my go-to spots at the Hanger LBX. Build your own bowl starts at $9 and depending on your protein choice will determine your total cost for that bowl. I usually go for the herb lemon grilled chicken. The chicken is tender and very flavorful. Their bulgogi is so flavorful too! Then you choose your carb. I love the multigrain option. Then you decide on leafy greens, your hot veggies and cold veggies, sauce in or on the side. I always choose the ponzu and either ahi verde or the ssamjang. Warning the ahi verde is spicy. The staff is always nice and don't mind if you ask for an extra scoop of your favorite toppings. I'm already looking forward to my next bowl!

Quick and easy ordering process. They're pretty popular for their bulgogi burrito, which was roughly $15. It has a good sweetness to it . Theres a chance to get a free fountain drink, but they want to see a 5 star review and will read your review.
