Home-style Korean food with a warm, welcoming owner. The pork spine stew is cooked perfectly tender with a classic, no-nonsense spicy gochujang flavor. The best part is the “fried rice finale”—they stir rice into the leftover broth and reduce it until it’s packed with flavor. Also loved the boiled pork wraps with spicy sauce, garlic, and bellflower root in napa cabbage. Comfort food done right.

The most horrible service I’ve received in my entire life. Incredibly rude, feels like I was begging them for a refill. Never got the side dishes I asked for. I tipped just out of human decency but not because I wanted to. Very stressful and unpleasant dining experience, will never ever come back or recommend anyone to come here. Spend your money elsewhere, there’s so many good Korean food place in LA.

Horrible service. It was an empty restaurant yet servers were nonexistent. Food was salty and sparce. They will chase you down for a tip.

Such a great spot! The food tastes super authentic and comforting. The gamja tang was so flavorful and rich — definitely one of the best I’ve had. The bossam (served after 5pm) was also amazing — super tender and packed with flavor. Portions are big, prices are fair, and the servers were honestly the sweetest. You can tell they really care about their customers. Highly recommend if you’re craving solid Korean food!

Best Gamjatang! It’s well cooked and so easy to eat! The meat comes right off from the bone and the soup is not too salty! I think this spot is better than LA original gamjagol! Must try👍

Spicy pork bone soup is must order! Bibimba portion is quite small, also the sides options is not a lot. 4 stars is for flavor and new waitress ( very nice).

I ordered a small pork rib pot and a No. 3 fish takeout. When I got home I found there was no fish. I called their manager and the manager was very mean and told me she didn't know she was busy and was very rude! Uneducated!

Food was delicious! However the service was lacking. You have to flag them down for everything. Overall though would still come back. The price for what you get is worth it! Definitely taste the quality.

We visited this restaurant as a group of five and ordered the pork bone soup（feel not enough）. While the meal included the option to fry rice with the leftovers, we found the portion size a bit small for our group. We arrived around 8 PM, and unfortunately, the kimchi-flavored soup we were excited to try was already sold out. Overall, the experience was okay, and we might come back again to give it another shot, hoping for a better experience next time.
