Everything was very well done, all of the meat was so tender and practically melted in your mouth, and the lemonades were unique and delicious, 10/10

I don't think Kobunga lives up to its yelp stars. Bulgogi & jap chae did not taste right; they were not very appealing. Corn and slaw sides were good, but portions were tiny.

Good food, flavorful, juicy, but the serving size is too small for their price. Had no dine-in, the teas are pretty good. I liked the pork and the beef, as well as the japchae.

Love this place! It's refreshing to see non-kbbq-type Korean joints that serve delicious, well-balanced meals at an affordable price.Whenever I need to be in the area, I drop by because their pork belly is amazing - reminiscent of southern bbq! Their rice, which they lightly add some special touches to is awesome too. The owners are really nice folks; love supporting them. I'd highly highly recommend it if you're looking for something quick and casual in the area.

On the campus of USC, I visited a place called Kobunga. This place is not vegan, however it had MANY vegan options. The only thing that was not vegan was the meats. I had the Soft Tofu w/ Spicy Garlic Soy Sauce, 1/2 Brown Rice, 1/2 Japchae Noodles, Cucumber Kimchi Pickles & the Sautéed Corn. At first y’all, I saw that tofu and was like ehh but once I mixed the sauce and everything together it didn’t look too bad. When I took my first bite, I didn’t expect an explosion of flavors to dance all over my tongue naa. As this being my very 1st time EVER trying Korean styled food, I am well impressed. The customer service was just as pleasant as the food. My Overall Meal was a 10/10. Overall Experience 10/10. I recommend while visiting Los Angeles! Tell em Multiiee sent you when you go!!

Pretty atmosphere but the food was not the great. Lots of rice and not enough meat or veggies in the bowls.

Pretty good food, but like alot of places they have the ipad tipping thing which they swing around after purchasing, which feels awkward, so I don't go as much...

I got the Build Your Own Plate with pork belly, and it was DELICIOUS!! The meat melts in your mouth and is very tender and juicy. I love the paring between the side and base with the meat. The short rib is also very flavorful and tender. The side of kimchi also tasted very fresh!A super delicious meal near campus. The food was ready very quickly, and the staff is very nice too! Plenty of seating around USC Village, and the underground parking lot is very convenient. I wish I gave this place a try earlier, but I liked it so much I went back two days in a row.

I was hesitant to go here because I wasn't a fan of their side selection, but they had some new ones like roasted vegetables (broccoli and brussel sprouts). Recommend the cauliflower rice. It had a good texture and delicate flavor.
The food here was very good, surprisingly so considering where it is located. The parking was very easy and the service was great. Has a real friendly and helping ambiance. I ordered the watermelon lemonade and pork belly build your own bowl. If near this area and looking for quick affordable Korean food that is solid, stop in.

Really good, but just a little too expensive for what you get.

They could just rob me $11, but they gave me two tiny portions of food. How generous!

The dining experience would be much better if I ordered right from the place in person instead of getting it via delivery. My boyfriend and I were craving some KBBQ with rice and other stuff. We were unsatisfied with the taste and knew it'd be better to have them there when it's fresh and made to order. It was okay overall.

Wow! Such a bad experience here. I ordered KBBQ chicken with noodles, salad & cabbage slaw. And when I got it and sat down my food was so cold. I informed the worker and they didn't acknowledge anything I said. No apologies or ask me if I would like a new one that would be warm. I looked at the photo thinking was this noodle suppose to be cold. NOPE! What a horrible experience with the food and the service. All I got was the stares from the workers after I informed them on how cold it was. I wasted my money and time. I tossed the food. Because I paid for hot food not cold food to bring home and heat it up in my microwave. I will never go back here or recommend this place. If friends or other fellow Yelpers ask, I will say don't go unless you want cold food.
