Everything was satisfactory, but some of the food items were significantly delayed, possibly due to an oversight in the order or a backorder situation.

Ah, yes, the taste of MSG and ahjushis sharing a jjigae around the TV. This is my vibe. I think what’s even more astonishing about this place is that at night you don’t even have to fight for parking. They got the whole lot available for themselves and their patrons. This is striking gold in Koreatown. Anyway, this place feels like it’s one of the old vanguard establishments of Koreatown. It’s charming that it maintains its simple and traditional menu (I got a yukgaejang), but it felt pretty standardfare. Sometimes, that’s not a bad thing.

Great old school comfort food. You see lots of older koreans here so you know they are legit.

I ate here a few years ago with a couple friends and still think about it. The food was incredible--that goes without stating--one highlight was the kimchi jjim which was out of this world. But more importantly, the hospitality in which me and my friends were met is what makes this memorable. Immediately upon arrival, the owner and his team treated us like family and spent the entire night looking after us/making sure we felt welcome & special.

Next time I'm in LA there is no doubt ill be here--the food is too good and staff too nice to pass up.

Dont miss this spot!

I ordered bossam and budae jjigae and honestly, everything was so good ; fresh, hearty and perfectly seasoned. The staff were also super friendly and helpful that made the whole experience even better. (I came around dinner time, and I’m a little sad I couldn’t snap a pic of the side dishes.)

$8.99 all day special very good

My new favorite for pork gukbap!
This place is an absolute gem. The pork gukbap is incredibly tasty and authentic—exactly what you want from a traditional Korean meal. Yes, it's a bit of a hole-in-the-wall, which just adds to its charm, and the parking spaces are narrow, but it's 100% worth it. Let's keep this place our little secret!

I went there around 11 a.m. by myself. Two people came in after me, but the staff took their order first and didn’t even bring me water or take my order. After waiting for a while, I just left. It felt like they were treating customers differently depending on who they were, and I don’t want to go back again.

This place is quite a hidden gem in Los Angeles. No wait to get seated and the food was amazing. I had the gamjatang (a spicy potato pork soup) which was great quality and quantity.

I was watching the YouTube channel, and they suddenly said that the special ended yesterday. Well, I understand that because they make a huge concession. The side dishes were very poor. There were only 3 types of food (bean sprouts, kimchi, and radish radish kimchi), but the kimchi and radish radish kimchi were so wilted that I didn't want to eat them.

The gopchang jjigae here is amazing. It’s by far the best gopchang stew I’ve had in a long time, though I didn’t try anything else on the menu.

Worst service in Ktown. Food was so-so, the server/waitress has really bad attitude. When you ask for something, server/waitress asked me to do it at once like 'don't ask me too much' attitude. Definitely not going back. The owner should train better their servers.
