50 Best Korean Restaurants near Lomita

“The chicken is always BOMB-TASTIC from this place, & they are speedy quick, too! I placed a pretty good sized order, less than an hour before their pick up "window" closed, & they still had it ready to go in plenty of time! They are always so sweet when I go to pick up, too, & will always give me extra pickled radishes! YUMMM! The savory aroma of their amazing chicken filled my car on my short drive home, & I couldn't wait to dive in like a,SAVAGE! :-P Thank you, b.b.q. chicken, for satisfying this cavegirl's craving tonight!

Parking: It's in a strip mall with other restaurants, on a busy corner, & I have seen the lot packed during the day. Parking is tight there during the day, & due to the busy corner, it's tough to get in & out of. However, I normally do my b.b.q. chicken runs in the evenings after half of the businesses in that strip mall have closed, so parking isn't an issue!“

“I arrived home late after picking up the chicken, so it was all cold, but it was so delicious even when it was cold, and when you look at the flesh, you can tell that they used good chicken. You can feel the generosity of the owner who pays great attention to the ingredients and does not skimp on them. The chicken was crispy on the outside and very moist and soft on the inside. The seasoning was rich in flavor and very delicious. I think I will only eat thankschicken from now on. For chicken, I highly recommend this chicken restaurant?“

“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.“

“We came here very earlier and it was just open. We never tried this before, the owner is very friendly and introduced everything to us. We tried the intestine combo, and we very recommend the combination of abomasum, mountain chain and large intestine. The texture of abomasum and mountain chain are very chewy, and combine with the large intestine, it is very oily smooth. It is definitely worth a try!“

“I'm a 27-year-old From Busan Jinseong soup lover.
It's quite clean and delicious here.
Kimchi and kkakdugi are the basics of a soup restaurant, and the basics are solid.
10 pieces of meat in soup? More than half of the soup and rice bowls were covered + Speaking of service, I guess the owner couldn't stand the water cups and side dish bowls being empty so he kept refilling them.
(However, note that there is no onion, pepper, garlic, and ssamjang sauce)
The prices are the same as other Korean restaurants in the US.

“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.“

“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.“

“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 ?“

“i had their bowls and it was delicious and affordable for all that they put on there!! huge size and flavor.. 5* for me i highly recommend them...yummmmmm///. yo. comi sus bowls y les doy un 5* por tanta comida como buen sabor...buen precio por tanta comida...“

“a LOT of food for the price. great customer service.“

“Sweet Potato Pizza is awesome and Frisx Chicken with Korean Sauce is really delicious! Two Thumbs Up!“

“Love this place! Second time here and they're service and food is outstanding. This place is pretty low key and open late, perfect for post concert meal. Also, I may have spotted our "Fast food secrets club president" dining here tonight.“

“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 visit to Myung Ga Haejangguk. The service was fantastic. They placed electric fans by me and were very attentive. We had the yukgaejang, a spicy beef brisket soup with sprouts, mushrooms, and rice noodles—it was amazing. The portion size was much larger than I expected. It was worth every penny. I highly recommend it 100%.“

“As a Chinese Korean whose parents had a jja jjang myun place in Korea and whose family friends were the Dragon restaurant owners, this is the most authentic and traditional jja jjang myun and jjang pong I've had in a long time. Jin Ja Roo!“

“We've been here a few times. We have enjoyed it and feel the staff is good and take care of you.

Parking: The parking lot is large but this restaurant is busy and Scardinos, another popular place, restaurant is in the same strip mall. I've had to drive a loop a couple times each time we've come.“

“Good customer service, delicious food“

“The food and service was very good“

“Best Korean chicken in the area hands-down. More of a bar vibe. Snow cap is a must. Fried chicken, but not oily. It’s the best. Sweet potato fries, waffle fries so awesome. Bluemoon pitcher and we called it a night.Weekday happy hour specials. Sorry forgot to take a pic.Can’t wait to go back!

Parking: Parking on side instead of in front has more options“

“el mejor restaurant de comida Koreana.... regresaré!!“

“Absolutely amazing. The place is a little bit small, so there's not a lot of places to sit when they're busy, but the food is sooo good! I tried their beef bugolgi and it was the best that I've had in quite a while. I will definitely be coming back again and trying new things as well.“

“I had a delicious budae stew yesterday. But I was surprised because the reviews weren't that great. Has the owner changed before? The service and taste were good. Overall, there wasn't anything particularly wrong with it, but I guess I didn't pay attention to the food... Anyway, the broth and ingredients in Budae Jjigae were fresh and the broth was rich and delicious.“

“Love this restaurant. The wait time was supposed to be 20+ minutes but I feel like I got it in less time. It's nice to see everyone working at a tolerable speed where I don't think they're stressed out and orders aren't taking more than 20 mins. My experience with Kimbap at other restaurants is they take more than 30 mins because they're also dealing with online orders, phone orders and in house orders. But I believe everyone at this restaurant was doing that but still making good time management without sacrificing the quality and presentation of the food. I had an order of beef kimbap and an order of spam Kimbap. I'm looking forward to trying out more of the menu here when I'm in the area.“

“The food is very good. Two of us had the galbi ($30), deep fried dumplings ($12), and the kimchi cheese fried rice ($15). The food was well prepared, served hot, and plentiful. All three dishes were delicious.

There were a number of groups, male and female, enjoying their meal with Terra (Korean) beer and soju. Evidently, it is a popular gathering spot for people who appreciate good Korean food.

We want to return soon.“

“Great service, atmosphere was upbeat and plenty of great food to cook up! Get there early s because place was packed when I left.“

“My new favorite Korean restaurant!The banchans are authentic. They are all delicious. I was a bit under the weather, so I ordered Galbitang. The broth was clear but full flavor. It's very simple and basic seasoning but tasty. I just wish there were more beef ribs. The menu offers a variety of traditional Korean dishes.The service is really warm and accommodating. The older woman is so kind. Love the decor.

Vegetarian options: Good options“

“The steamed cypress tree was so neat and delicious that it had the best light taste that was more Korean than Korea.

Vegetarian options: You can steam the abundant vegetables in a cypress wood steamer and dip them in the sauce. The brisket is especially thin and soft, so this is the best restaurant that anyone of any age can enjoy. Highly recommended!

Parking: Ample parking is available right in front of the yard.

Kid-friendliness: It's clean and the table itself has a private partition.“

“Absolutely delicious! I and my husband randomly found this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. We were welcomed by a gentleman and instantly made us feel like home. The soup was soooo good and we kept telling ourselves to come back to try other items here while eating.“

“muy bueno, lo recomiendo al 100, comida koreana.“

“Nice selection. Good quality“

“Man, this is absolutely a phenomenal restaurant. I'm running behind for work, but this place is so amazing that I'm taking time to write this review. If you look at my picture, I got all this for less than $20 for lunch. So many side dishes and the main dish was delicious! You have to come try this place if you want great food with awesome service. Thank you so much to everyone here. Wow!!!“

“This place is really tasty and the food is always made quickly! Plenty of vegan options and varieties of toppings/sauces. Although the food is sauteed with oil, it's healthier than other places. They never disappoint! Bowls are pretty big too for not a ton of money, makes me and my wallet happy ?.

Vegetarian options: Lots of options, many veggies

Parking: Large parking, not hard to park“

“It was hard to find the restaurant because it was in the back corner of a business complex. It's very easy to miss, but there's plenty of parking at least. Me and 2 friends ordered from the kiosk and waited about 15m for 3 sandwiches and fries. Inside it's quite small with only a table and bar with 4 seats each.

I got the Signature Sandwich with LVL 2 sauce. The sandwich was massive, and the chicken was so thick, incredibly juicy, and perfectly cooked. The breading and cabbage were crunchy too. The mayo was a creamy complement to the chicken without being overpowering. The spicy sauce was served on the side, and it was so deliviously flavorful and not only spicy. My only complaint here is that I wish there was more spicy sauce and that it was spread inside the sandwich, because I kept forgetting to drizzle sauce on between bites and still ran out.

The salt and vinegar fries tasted exactly like the Lay's flavor but with more potato from the fries, of course. Honestly the fries were nothing special but they gave so much that the box was overflowing.

I tried my friend's Kimchi Egg Sandwich too. The ham was pretty forgettable or missable, but the egg was delicious. The egg was incredibly moist, sweet, and delicately salty, and it paired well with the mild acidity of the kimchi.

We chatted with the owner a bit when we picked up our food and she was very sweet and kind. She made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. I hope more people check this place out, because it's unfortunately very missable in its current location. I'm going to come back but will definitely share a sandwich next time.“

“I wasn’t feeling well last night and came here for lunch and ordered the duk mandoo guk and it felt like a home cooked meal! The side dishes were amazing, the waiters were very kind and attentive and the prices were very reasonable. If you want a home cooked Korean meal that is authentic, check this place out!“

“A nice restaurant for Korean comfort food. The bibimbap was good. It feels less Americanized than most restaurants, which was a good thing. We were a bit sad that the samgye tang didn’t have ginseng in it. I think it might be in the broth when they cook it but we usually get the real ginseng our dish too when ordering this. Overall, the taste was good.“

“I come here for Sulung-tang and Kalbi-tang. You can tell they take the time to prepare their broth. Quality ingredients. Nicely fermented banchan. And the rice is always cooked well (which makes a huge difference when having soup). Serving size of the soup is always generous and satisfying. And i try to treat my kids with bb*q Chicken next door - they love the honey garlic boneless chicken.“

“Love to eat here . People are friendly. Hit the spot ! Thank you“

“Open seating and the staff were very kind and informative. I went with a few buddies to grab dinner to find out it is mostly a bar. The food we got was very good and even though we didn't get drinks we still had a good time. The Korean Army Soup was my favorite of what we got, and there was enough for the four of usI'm definitely coming back another time to get food and drink!“

“muy bueno, se los recomiendo y el personal es muy amable.“

“i had their bowls and it was delicious and affordable for all that they put on there!! huge size and flavor.. 5* for me i highly recommend them...yummmmmm///. yo. comi sus bowls y les doy un 5* por tanta comida como buen sabor...buen precio por tanta comida...“

“Good quality meat with reasonable price. Highly recomended!“

“Old man, restaurant owner, food
It's the kind of food my mom made ^*^
When I feel sick, I eat hot seolleongtang soup and kimchi * After eating sikhye, my body feels happy and healthy.
It reminds me of the food I used to eat when I went to my grandmother's house.
I always submit because I have a lot ^*^
And is it Grandma Shangak?
I'm getting healthier ^*^

The price is cheap too
It's delicious too
The old days when I ate my grandmother’s food
I remember memories and my body feels happy.
Even if the boss eats plum syrup?, he sells it and buys it.

Thinking about Korea
Come out hahahaha“

“(Translated by Google) The catering overall was delicious and neat. Especially kimchi and fruit salad. Japchae. Tricolor is the best!!?(Original)캐더링 전체적으로 맛있고 정갈했습니다. 특히 겉절이 김치와 과일 사라다. 잡채. 삼색전 최고에요!!?“

“I don’t understand why there are so many bad reviews. I was actually worried about the undercooked meat comment because I am pregnant. Everything was perfect and i didnt have to ask for anything different. I asked for extra sauce and he just gave it too me happily. Also the restroom was available to use which was great for me. I got the half and half plate with extra extra avocado. Highly recommend !“

“Take this from a Korean native who can't live without jajangmyun and jjampong. This place is one of the best places for it. Don't underestimate this place just bc it's in a food court, and not a full fledged restuarant. Miles better than Paik's noodle. Recommend dine in, though their take out and delivery separate noodles from their soup.“

“As someone who likes korean food this was a place I wanted to go and try. I want to find a restaurant that feels reminiscent of good ol' home style cooking. You know those places that locals go to, that's what I found here. We went for dinner in the middle of the week and were seated right away. We were the only 2 that looked "out of place". Our server greeted us right away and let us know she would be happy to answer any questions we had or would be glad to give a recommendation on what to order. We got a combo of hot stone bibimbap and galbi. I also got us an order of bossam with kimchi. The banchan they served was delicious, my favorite was the cucumber. My only complaint would be that it was too warm inside and I was sweating throughout the whole meal.“

“Korean BBQ all you can eat. Pretty good, haven't been here in awhile...... used to be very cheap, now it's $25/person. Kids 5-7, $10. 8-11, $16. But most places have gone up since covid. No galbi here, just bulgogi, brisket, spicy pork, pork belly, chicken, and beef belly (thin sliced short rib). Not a whole variety but these are the main meats.“

“Their organic tofu bowl is delicious. Veggies cooked just right. Consistent quality, I get takeout from this location a couple times a week when I need something healthy and satisfying. Chicken and beef bowls also delicious. Great low key neighborhood lunch spot with a few tables for dining in, clean and welcoming. Closed Sundays.

Vegetarian options: Organic tofu, fresh veggies (carrot, cabbage, broccoli), brown rice. Mini bowls available.“

“We went there today for lunch.Omg.. this place is absolute must try!I am born and raised in Korea so I know the difference between just regular Korean restaurants to an authentic home-made restaurant. This place rocks!Just like the taste I remember how my grandma used to make!!I already see so many Korean people here. They must know like I do!!“

“The food is delicious!! The price unbeatable! Stopped going to wabba grill and switched over to the flame house after litterly getting the smallest portion of chicken and veggies ever! Paid almost 14 bucks for disappointment. The portions here are great! And you dont have to pay extra for veggies! Love eating here, the staff is amazing!! Super sweet ladies!!“
