All Ktown food is too salty, spicy, sweet, and spicy, but this place really feels like eating mom’s home-cooked food! The side dishes are good, and the Cheonggukjang served with warm barley tea and white rice is the best! There are people lining up to order at lunchtime, but it's a delicious restaurant that's worth the wait every time.
I found “Olympic Cheonggukjang” while looking for a Korean restaurant that opens early in the morning at 8:30.During the week I stayed in LA, I tried a different menu item every morning; Soybean paste stew, cheonggukjang, seolleongtang, rice cake dumpling soup, etc. were all delicious.It was so much better than the Korean restaurant in Vancouver that I almost cried.I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to eat hearty Korean food in the morning.Next time I go to LA again,...read full review

Fantastic restaurant! They are known, as the name in Korean suggests, for their cheonggukjang (fermented soybean stew). Absolutely delicious. The staff working here take care of every detail in the service as well as the food. Price is also good. This is definitely one of the gems of ktown - homey, authentic, and delicious. Ample parking, but the restaurant itself is on the smaller side. There can be a small wait if coming at a popular time.
