Zzamong is honestly a ktown legend. Having come here for 10 years, being back again I’m shocked by how great the food has stayed and how affordable it remains.
A huge jjajangmyun ($12, enough to share), small sweet and sour chicken ($12, not small at all), and egg fried rice ($11) was plenty to feed two very hungry people (w enough leftovers for dinner)
The egg fried rice was tasty with a pleasant wok flavor, the chicken batter was light thin and perfectly crispy; recommend asking for the sauce on the side. And the noodles always hit the spot.
Saw they have a lunch special w jjajangmyun, sweet & sour chicken, and dumplings for 14, will have to come back
Love seeing all the locals who are clearly regulars at this spot. Hope it’ll continue to thrive for decades to come!

I love eating here. I bring anyone who visits LA here. I love black bean noodles and these are the best, the spice levels are no joke! There is a waiter who does tricks and really makes it such a fun experience. Huge portion sizes and really great prices! They also play really fun music.

Not sure if it was the seafood spicy noodles, jajiangmein, or the beef tangsuyok, but both my wife and I got food poisoning from eating here today… diners beware.

I cannot wait to write this review. This was such an awesome experience dinning here. I’ve been trying to find vegan jajangmyeon for so long and they had it here ! The food was delicious and the customer service was out of this world. They have a nice vegan selection and also tofu for protein! Will for sure be back when I am near the area !

I've been here twice this week. Both the Jjam-bbong and Jja-jang-myeon are delicious. The Jjam-bbong is great because you can choose the spiciness level. There are 10 levels, and I like level 3 the best. The best part about this place is that they offer sample sizes, so you can have a little Jjam-bbong, a little Jja-jang-myeon, and even some Tang-su-yuk and Yaki-mandu. It's not often you can get such a generous meal for this price.
The Jjajangmyeon and Jjamppong sets are under $15, and there are also small Jjajang and Jjamppong Sets for those with smaller appetites. I had the seafood Jjamppong, Kkanppung Shrimp, and seafood Jjajang, which were absolutely delicious. The owner entertained the kids with magic tricks and origami. I'll definitely be back.
IT was the worst Jjambong ever. Usually, soup is a blend of meat, vegetables, and seafood, but it was more like hot pepper water. Very low quality, Absolutely, it was disgusting, and the server guy was wearing a hat but I couldn't see his face.

Got the food ordered for to-go and seamless ordering process. It's highly affordable for the gigantic portion so worked well for feeding big crowd lol. We had bunch of the XL seafood jjajangmyeon, which I did add more toppings into making it more delightful. Adding spiciness level would be extra $1.25 charge and you could customize the level. My tolerance was relatively low so level 2 was spicy enough for me. It tasted great with rich seasoning and toppings, though I was bit thrown off by the shrimp as they didn't taste fresh. The sweet and sour pork also came in super generous portions and became perfect supplement to the noodles.
