Had to get my Squid Game fix before Season 3 drops, and what better way than trying the same grilled intestines that Lee Byung-hun’s character would approve of! 😆
Before we even ordered our mains, I was absolutely HOOKED on the honey-glazed pumpkin banchan (side dish). I’m not even kidding - I went through FIVE plates of this stuff and couldn’t stop myself. I’m officially declaring that KingChang has the best banchan game in LA’s Korean food scene! 🥇
The beef intestine set was absolutely incredible! The combination of caramelized onions + melted cheese was pure genius. Picture this: perfectly grilled, crispy-edged intestines dipped in gooey cheese with those sweet caramelized onions on top. Each bite was so good it felt like I had anime sparkles and dramatic background music playing (if you know, you know 😉). This is basically the Korean BBQ version of In-N-Out’s Animal Style, and I am HERE for it!
The intestines were grilled to perfection - crispy exterior with that perfect chew, no weird smell or texture that sometimes puts people off. The cheese wasn’t overpowering, just the right amount of richness to complement the meat.
Big bonus - they’re open until 2AM, making this the perfect late-night spot when you’re craving some serious Korean comfort food after a night out. Finally, a place that understands LA’s night owl culture!

♡ Prime Boneless Short Ribs｜Snowflake Meat The most delicious snowflake pork is indeed the store’s signature dish Flesh pattern, fat and thin alternately Charcoal grilled while retaining the delicious taste Exudes an alluring and unique meaty flavor Every bite is satisfying and super delicious (๑ᵔ⤙ᵔ๑)
♡ Marinated Prime Beef Short Ribs｜Seasoned Steak The marinated steak is very tasty Mouthwatering ? Brother grilled it just right Tender and juicy, a must-try for meat lovers I ordered half a portion and it was quite a lot.
♡ Spicy Intestine｜Sizzling large intestine (recommended!!!) The beef intestines are grilled in butter and delicious. Braised first and then grilled, the color is full and full of color. Overall very tasty, with a powdery, glutinous and sweet taste. Very good at neutralizing the greasy taste of beef intestines

The $98 beef platter was amazing, especially the short ribs—perfectly marbled and juicy. We also had crispy pork belly and tender beef tongue, both grilled by the staff. Great side dishes like tofu soup and steamed egg made the meal complete. Ended with refreshing cold noodles, a must after all that BBQ. Highly recommend for Korean BBQ lovers!

So much food and so delicious, I am so impressed by all the choices of intestines, the spicy combo is just another level.
All the side dishes are well made as well, I just love the fact there is another Yi Fang next door I can have a tea after the bbq too!

Outstanding restaurant! They have these pads for ordering and we can order half portion of food, which is nice for people who want to taste a bit of everything. Love the beef intestine and scallion seafood pancake! Great place for BBQ and late night meals!
Our party came from Vancouver and this is a totally different bbq experience!! We felt happy paying more tips because the service was great, food was delicious too! Also very different side dishes from the ones we have in Vancouver we really enjoyed it. Their combos are generous amounts we order two small combos and it was enough for 8 of us plus two individual orders. I wish we had this in Vancouver haha

This place is amazing! Great food and service! We went with our new born son, they sat us at the corner booth where was more private and quieter , and cooked the food on a different table, so thoughtful and friendly. The meat was delicious and tender. This is the restaurant we definitely will go back again!
Potentially the best KBBQ restaurant in LA. Everything about it, including food, service, and ambience, exceeded expectations. I ordered Beef Combo Small * Beef Brisket * Prime Boneless Short Rib * Seasoned Prime Rib * Spicy Paste Stew *Kimchi Pancake The meat was good quality and tasted great. An employee cooked all of the food for us and his timing of everything was spot on. She was also quick to bring us refills hot sauces.

The meat here was amazing. Your server will cook it for you and at first I was a little disappointed we didn't get to do it. But then I tasted his meat and became a believer. He was able to reach a level of perfection we could've never. Be aware that is it pretty loud in there and they have a shockingly outrageous birthday celebration. But it was very fun and we will definitely be back!

The meat at this place is amazing, and paired with the cheese, it’s a perfect combo. The taste totally matches the price, and since it’s right by my house, I’ll definitely be coming here often!

Super yummy, the waiters cook the meat for you, it was all really good. They make a big deal about it birthdays with a whole song and sparkler which was fun.
