A great snack restaurant! If you come before 8 o'clock, it's happy hour, so you can enjoy more value for money than other K-Town bars :)However, if you go when there are too many people and it is noisy, your voice may be heard :) Good luck with your guessing game :)

It's too sweet, tastes like sugar, and is oily, so I'll never go back because it's bad for my health.

It was too expensive, and the food it wasn't really good, and also if there are more than 6 people you have to 20% of tip, it's not

I came here for dinner and drinks to catch up with some friends. The interior is so cute with the hanging lights, and the music playlist added to the fun vibes. The waiters were quick and very attentive to our group. We got the military soup, cheese corn, a pork dish, and the rose tteokbokki. It was the perfect portion size for our group of 6. The star of the night was definitely the rose tteokbokki! It's a must order. We couldn't stop eating it and my friend from out of town loved the flavor so much he got some rice to eat the rest of the sauce haha. This is such a great low key hidden gem. Bonus: there's a parking lot!

JJan will always be a second home to me. Ever since we discovered them during the pandemic a few years ago, they've always been so good and so nice! The food is always good! Perfect late night, drinking food. The service is always amazing every time. The vibe is always fun, they play really good music!I've literally tried just about every thing in the menu and there's always something for every one.

Tucked away with delish bar food. Love the DIY rice balls, kimchi fried rice, and spicy grilled chicken.Parking: Sunday night Ok free parking in a shared strip mall lot. It's not very clean, but it's easy parking!

r cuts of meat to perfection.The service was top-notch - friendly and attentive. The staff's knowledge of Korean food and their willingness to guide us through the menu made the experience even more enjoyable.In conclusion, this Korean bar restaurant is a hidden gem. It combines exceptional food, drinks, and service in a welcoming atmosphere. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu. If you're a fan of Korean food or looking for a fantastic place to start your nightout, this place is a must-visit."

I went here around 6PM on a Thursday, and we were the first ones here. The employees were nice and the music selection was great. It is a mixture of all genres. The inside is kind of small, but decorated with cute lights all around the ceiling. The prices are great for what you get.They have happy hour, on certain food items and drinks. Everything we ate was delicious! We had the green apple frozen beer, soju, pork belly with green onions, kimchi pancake, corn cheese, spicy chicken, dumplings, and spicy rice cake.The parking is a bit challenging - they have their own lot but there are other businesses that occupy the spaces as well. And street parking... good luck! I would definitely want to come back probably on a weekend and more towards the evening time. :)

I've gotta spill the beans about Jjan Gastropub – hands down, THE spot for all your late-night cravings. I'm talking about wings that are so unbelievably crispy and saucy, they practically melt in your mouth.But hold up, because Jjan takes it to a whole new level with their stir-fried intestine. I know, I know, it might sound wild, but trust me, these guys have mastered the art of making intestines ridiculously tasty. They've cracked the code to late-night satisfaction, and I'm totally here for it.

This isn't one of the best but THEE BEST soju bar/Korean gastropub in LA!!! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a vibe that's nothing short of awesome. The dim lights and music creates an ambiance that's both trendy and welcoming. Whether you're out for a casual night with friends or a date night, JJAN sets the stage for a memorable experience.The menu is full of innovative dishes that take pub food to a whole new level. It's like they've cracked the code on making comfort food incredibly cool.What really makes JJAN stand out is the staff. They're not just servers; they're your cool, knowledgeable foodie friends who are happy to share their recommendations and make you feel like you're part of the scene.In a world where cool is sometimes hard to come by, JJAN effortlessly nails it. If you're looking for a gastropub that oozes style, serves up mouthwatering dishes, and offers a great time, JJAN should be at the top of your list. It's the definition of cool in the world of gastropubs!I highly recommend their fried chicken, 420 fries, and donkatsu w/kimchi pizza sauce! It was so good I had to order some togo :P
