I would highly recommend the kimchi and pork belly :) the decor is really cute and cozy

All neighbors must hate Anju. It's just sharing a wall with the plaza's parking lot but there are big signs posting "No Anju House parking" and the security guard was diligently patrolling every car to make sure Anju's guests don't park there. On the other hand, there's valet parking for Anju customers by the restaurant, charging cash $6 or card payment of $7. Or if you dare or are lucky, street parking is not impossible. We arrived on a Saturday night at 7pm and the wait was light. Within 15 minutes we were seated. While waiting, there's a comfy lounge with big TV for guests to lounge. Led inside, we passed a photo booth machine, and with an outdoor beer garden ambiance, we were led to our seats. It's totally outdoor, no interior seating. They have a heat lamp for the night. There are big screens, great for the FIFA watching season. The lady's restroom is well decorated. You scan the code on the table to read the menu, under dim light. I LOVE THE MENU!! So many choices! From fusion such as kimchi and bacon pasta to traditional dishes such as seafood pancake and ramen, from grilled items like butter grilled squid to soup items like fish cake stew, they have it all! The Korean alcoholic drinks include soju, flavored soju, 4-5 kinds of Korean beer, and the Makgeolli rice wine. The prices are reasonable for the portions; most big items are 20 or slightly higher. We ordered Creamy Kimchi Bacon Pasta, Butter Grilled Squid, Korean Omelet and Bulgogi Dukboki. They all tasted delicious and the portions are an overkill. For three of us, we barely finished half. Service was like the Korean style, they appear to take orders, deliver food, and disappear. They did give us a new bottle of water. But they disappear until you call them for the check. The waiter was pleasant when picking up payment and engaged in a small talk. This is definitely a place for large crowds. By about 8:30pm, the wait lounge was filled. So I think the later it goes, the more crowd they get. read more

Kimchi bacon pasta was so good! Just came in los angeles for some friends visit and stumbled upon this restaurant. The kimchi bacon pasta was amazing. Creamy, crunchy bacon texture paired with that flavor bomb of a pasta. I will come back for you, I could already taste it in my mouth again as I am writing this. read more

came for a late night snack and it definitely hit the spot. Loved how the outdoor seating was set up. It was a bit cold but there was a heater shared between some tables. we got the bulgogi bulgogi fries and combo c (fish cake stew and rose dukboki) which came with a bottle of soju. Our favorite out of the 3 items was the rose dukboki, it was very flavorful and the spice was just right. I think doing one of the combos will be your best option if you are dining with a group. Plus you can always add more if someone wants something more specific. Will have to come back and try their other menu items. read more

My boyfriend and I came here to eat and watch the Korea vs Czech World Cup soccer game. My first and biggest piece of advice-- MAKE A RESERVATION if you possibly can. Likely due to the game, the waitlist when we got there was over 2 hours long and I'm pretty sure they didn't get through any of it for the majority of the night since everyone there stayed to watch the whole game. Or maybe it just is that popular every night, who knows? But we had a reservation and we were able to skip the wait and get seated right away, which was a plus. The energy in here for the soccer game was lively and energetic. It was a fun vibe for a sports game and the whole restaurant was cheering and chanting for Korea when they scored. However-- I will say the food was quite disappointing. It didn't seem like authentic Korean bar food (anju). We ordered the rose tteokbokki, galbi, and Korean fried chicken with green onion salad. The rose tteokbokki was delicious-- perfectly creamy and chewy with a little kick. The galbi tasted good but for the price, you get a couple pieces of small short rib (?) cubes. Not your classic bone-in LA style galbi ribs. It came with a side salad that was refreshing. The Korean fried chicken paired well with the sauce and the green onion salad. But the chicken itself was not your typical Korean fried chicken. It was little pieces of deep fried chicken that was a little dry. The total for 3 dishes ended up coming out to be $140 which is a little absurd for a pub. I would give the food a 3/5 but the ambiance made up for it forsure. Service was quick and friendly. read more

They say that Anju House serves serves Korean bar food with beer, soju, and cocktails, but it is so much more. They have some of the best Korean food and I swear some of it reminds me of Italian food. You can get small bites, order a bunch of stuff and share or order a full meal. It is all great. There is nothing not to like and you will be happy. The service is great. They are kind and will explain the menu to you. They get your order right and are all smiles. Now, it can get very crowded at night and I don't know if they take reservations so call and find out. We have been several times and have done take away a few times when it is crowded. Either way, you will get great service and be happy. The place is super clean and really pretty. It is very comfortable. They have a full bar and Anju refers to food that is consumed with alcohol, but we have never had a drink there. It is a tad pricey, but the food is worth it always. We love their calamari and their noodles and any shrimp dish is the best. They have things I had never tried before. Just ask the server and you will be guided. read more

I love this place. Such a VIBE on a less crowded street in Ktown. I feel like I'm walking into someone's home to enjoy their home cooking. The menu is insane and delicious. I think I've had Gochujang rice cakes Takoyaki Korean Fried Chicken Leek and pork belly stir fy Kimchi bacon fried One of the pastas - only thing I'd skip A perfect place to watch a game on an afternoon of evening. The host and server is always making sure everyone is taken care of and makes good convo with guests. Never too much. I've only been in the early afternoon (around 2) and by the time I'm leaving the patio starts to fill up. I'm sure it's poppin at night. I'll save those tables for you party animals read more

Anju House is a Korean fusion casual dining restaurant. They are open late most days of the week, it is busy during typical dining hours & less so 10pm to close. I've visited this business a few times and will be a continuing patron. The food was delicious, of note I've tried all of the Dukboki variants and although all of them were tasty and reflective of their names - the Rose Dukboki takes the cake for me. Korean fried chicken was crispy without being overly oily, it held a great balance of crunchy texture while expressing its Korean spice blend. Kimchi Bacon Pasta is definitely their top hits - recommended if you enjoy a creamy pasta base. This is a great option to dine in for those late-night cravings! Of note: there is valet parking which is $5 (at the time of writing this review) - they accept cash or digital payment. Otherwise street parking is your route (keep in mind that Koreatown is not known for readily available street parking). read more

Anju House is charming. Walking in feels like a treasure hunt, there's so much to look at. Our table was decorated with rapper memorabilia, which was a fun touch. Since the seating is semi-outdoors, they even brought out a mini fan to keep flies away, which is very thoughtful of them. The service was prompt. The food, though, was hit or miss. We ordered the Asado combo (salad, cheese corn, fries) for about $100. The meat was tender and well-marinated, but not as juicy as expected. The dipping sauce tasted like a worchestire heavy katsu sauce. The gopchang was the weakest dish, some pieces were overly salty, others bland, and the portion felt small for the price. Clam chowder was just okay, nothing memorable. Overall, the pricing doesn't match the food quality. but the vibe alone makes it worth checking out. read more

Two Letter Word: Seafood + Risotto Ever since watching Gordon Ramsay yelling at his new peons for making sure to get the risotto right on Hell's Kitchen a decade or two ago, I've made it my mission to order risotto if it's ever offered at any restaurant. Anju House was no different. Ordered this dish as a late add on, and clearly this was the winner amongst their bulgogi bibimpap, crispy garlic gopchang, and pork belly kimchi. Now I did enjoy the pork belly though, that's one dish you can't really screw up. But overall that was my takeaway from this restaurant...get the risotto. It's good. Strawberry Yakult Soju? Great drink starter, but we stayed with one pitcher, after all the beers at the Dodger Mets Game. Ambiance at to the Anju House is hipsterish. A blend of a Pubhouse with a Korean Pocha. Great concept. I thought at first I walked into Cafe Concierto from Christmas past. Last thoughts, definitely a good food & Soju house spot nestled in a subtle alleyway on Oxford in Korea Town. Great find! read more

I wish I found this place sooner, but it's definitely going to be a staple in my LA dinners! The selection here is amazing and the food makes it even better. My big group shared a few dishes, but the ones that stood out were Kimchi and Pork Belly, Kimchi Bacon Pasta, Rose Tteokboki and Bulgogi Fries. I swear our table ordered multiple rounds of the same dishes! The pork belly was seasoned well with the sauces and the pasta was so creamy. If you're looking for a comfort pocha vibes, this is the spot for you and your friends. There's also a cute photobooth in the corner! read more

Ok went there because it was open late and looking at pictures from Yelp, it looked good. It's more of a hang out for young folks. I think the dishes were over priced from the portion it gives.

my friend brought me here and i'm not gonna lie, i had pretty high expectations considering how hyped this place is and the fact that there was a waitlist when we arrived. i ordered the kimchi bacon pasta, which apparently is their MOST popular dish, so maybe my expectations were too high. but as someone who loves both pasta and kimchi, this just did not hit for me. the kimchi had this slightly bitter taste that kept throwing me off and the whole dish ended up feeling underwhelming. halfway through eating it i was already thinking i should've trusted my instincts and ordered the seafood cream linguini or the shrimp gochujang butter pasta instead. those honestly sound way more promising. my friend ordered the OG fried chicken, and i genuinely need to know why it was all breast meat? for a place like this, i expected amazing korean fried chicken, but the pieces leaned dry and didn't have that juicy crispy payoff i was hoping for. the onion leek salad that came with the chicken honestly ended up being my favorite thing on the table, which i wasn't expecting at all! overall, i personally think the place is overhyped for the quality, especially at those prices. would i come back? probably not. read more

Anju House - kimchi bacon pasta and OG fried chicken with (bomb) onion leek salad - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came to Anju House around 7 and was surprisingly easy to find parking in the neighborhood. Like other review suggested, don't park in the apparent parking lot next to it. Chill and lively ambiance. Sort of like an indoor-outdoor space. Very airy. Ordered chili shrimp, galbi, bulgogi and takoyaki. Generic but well done dishes. Can't find fault with them, but also nothing outstanding. I won't recommend ordering these together, as they have almost the same flavor profile (sweet!). It's pleasant at the first bite, but each dish repeats the previous one and the sweetness eventually gets overwhelming. But this is obviously not the restaurant's problem. The menu is extensive, with most imaginable korean household dishes and many pasta one could choose from. I'm not 100% onboard with the $ or $$ on yelp, as our bill came out to be 70 pp, and that is not with alcohol involved. Anju house is apparently a good place to enjoy these dishes with some Korean soju (as indicated in their website, Anju refers to food that is consumed with alcohol) read more

Service was quick and food made fresh. Their sweet potato fries was fun snack to eat. Thinly cut, crispy, and the powdered sugar dust wasn't too much. It was a fun to eat one thin strip at a time!

My favoritre were the kimchi pasta, asado, pork belly with kimchi, bork belly eith leek and lychee and peaches. They were nice enough ti give us more lychee instead of peaches when we requested. Most places dont allow you to do that. The asado plate is good but i feel like it got pricer than before? Was it always 70+? Our server recommended kimchi pasta and the pork belly with leek and yes those were so goodm the bread for the kimchi pasta wss buttery and soft. The pickles that they gsve us enhanced the flavor of the pasta too. Pork belly and leek was flavorful and a little spicy. I think if they had garlic in there it would be better. The pancake wasnt crispy enough but it felt more eggy. read more

I'll start with the positives. The location is very nice. Designed with an elegant, but minimalistic vibe. I love that, traditional mixed modern social dining feel. I had placed a phone order, for pick up; upon arrival, I found the service was prompt. I saw my food ready to go, just past the main walk-in area. Almost immediately after that, I was taken care of by the host and on my way. I've been waiting to try this place for ages so on the drive back to work I was excited to steal a piece of meat from the bag. Initial bite flavor was good, meat was tender just a bit on the chewy side.. I wasn't bothered by it too much as I'd have to leave it in an oven warmer at work. Trying to keep food warm, in doing so, I knew there'd be only two possible outcomes, melting tender or either tough & dry. So, the dish of meat and rice sat in the warmer for almost an hour hour and a half. The downhill slope.... Set the "meat " on the veggies and began to eat. Meat after meat, I kept experiencing the same exact texture. It was the same exact rubbery chew, I initially tasted. Each and every piece was the same exact flavor. There was no peak, there was no pitfall. If you cook or grill, you know this is a red flag. Normally, consistency would be a good thing, a Master craftsman type experience, but this was NOT it. As go on, I get the sinking feeling, this can't be real meat. I lock in, the deeper I dig, each piece looks the same, broken apart the same, tastes the same, just various shapes. They can call me crazy for this one - I'll stand by it. Something is not right here. I'm not even going to throw it away. I'm going to study it for the next few days and post an updated review. I hope I'm wrong but as of right now, I'll never revisit this place. Too freaky of an experience. We read more

We stopped here for post midnight eats after a concert at the Forum. Though only 9 miles away it took us over 30 min to get here. It's worth it! Felt like we were welcomed into someone's backyard.

I ordered the shrimp pasta which was really good, full of flavor with just the right amount of spice. We ended the night with the brownie and ice cream dessert which was okay. The vibes are cozy and when we went they had a football game on and everyone was cheering and enjoying the game together. They also take reservations which is a big plus! read more

First time to Anju House it very much has an "house" feel with cute and chill décor with in and out seating. I went there around 6pm and did not have an issue finding street parking, but I could see it being an issue later in the night. When I initially entered in, there was no one at the front desk so I waited....and waited...and waited. After about 10 minutes, I walked into restaurant and found a server. He said that when it's not busy, no one really mans the front desk. I guess customers are supposed to just know to walk into the back. Very strange. As for the menu, I was very happy with the food options. It had so many things that I liked or sounded interesting. What wasn't happy were the prices. The prices are high considering portion size. Like really high. The prices for the "Small Anju" dishes seem reasonable, until you see the portion size. The "Big Anju" are regular sized dishes that are very expensive. Like, how do these young people ( a definite younger crowd that comes in later in the night) afford to eat out at places like this? Order one or two dishes and share? I ordered the Spicy Seafood Udon, Spicy Korean Fried Chicken, and the Fried Rice Cakes and Sausage. The Spicy Seafood Udon was good, but nothing unique. The Spicy Korean Fried Chicken was very well seasoned and tasty. The Fried Rice Cakes and Sausage was just okay. I felt that it needed more sauce and have had much better at other places. I would be interested in trying some of the other dishes, but considering the prices, I would hesitate to come back. The food wasn't extraordinary enough for me to ignore the prices. Overall, I wouldn't be opposed to going back, but not my first option. read more

Came on a Saturday night with a party of 10 for a friend's birthday. Street parking was tough, but service was excellent -- fast with food and drinks, and they even gave us a free soju for the birthday boy. We sat outside, which was well lit and perfect for groups. Ordered Korean fried chicken, fries, and cheese corn. Chicken was crispy and flavorful, fries were solid, and the cheese corn stood out -- crunchy, cheesy, and one of the best versions I've had. Chill spot with good vibes and fair prices on drinks. Great for groups and casual celebrations. I'd definitely come back. read more

I love the cozy atmosphere! Located just off Wilshire Blvd in Koreatown, Anju House is a great option for those that want to take a step back from the hustle and bustle of center of this neighborhood. What really impressed me was their combos that are perfect for a party of two. It's a great way to just order something and wipe your hands clean, as opposed to potentially getting stuck picking and choosing from their menu. That said, one thing that I will have to ding them for is the communication. We were a bit concerned when it took appx 30 minutes for the food to come out, but on the flip side everything was delivered all at once. It definitely would've been nice to have been either given the option of having things sent out one at a time/all at once, or just communicated that it would take a bit since all 3 dishes would be delivered together. Other than that, great vibes would definitely come back again read more

Walking into Anju House feels less like arriving at a restaurant and more like you accidentally wandered into someone's backyard barbecue, if someone had a flare for Korean fusion and talent for hiding parking space is like they're a part of an escape room challenge. Even the valet can be challenging, so an Uber or a scooter in the trunk might be a good idea. The vide is like Mi Casa es su Casa without the old Korean grandmother staring you down. Anju snacks to be enjoyed with alcohol I am boy they lean into it. So do cocktails are everywhere, all engineered and designed to make you forget the menu reads like a crossover episode of a Korean street food challenge, and cottage food cookoff. Okonomi Yaki Fry's?. Is this Japanese, is it Korean, is it American? Buried under kewpie mayo and takoyaki sauce with chili powder and Bonito flakes (aka kastuboshi, aka hanakutsuo, aka gattsoobushi, aka yummy seafood flavor) I really enjoyed this delicious identity crisis. It reminds me of myself. The dukboki is classic Korean street food of rice cakes, drowning in a sweet and spicy sauce. Not overly sweet, and not overly spicy, it's actually bland. So I think it caters more towards an American style third generation Korean taste bud than than a traditional, scorch the roof of my mouth and make the heat sizzle my mouth style. Which makes it perfect pairing with alcohol. In fact, it makes me want to enjoy more cocktails. Then there's the cheese corn, which is exactly what it sounds like corn and cheese. But who knew something so simple could be so dramatic when grilled on a flat iron to perfection and has a stretchy cheese bathed in creamy roasted corn that has a nice chew and goes well again, with cocktails. And Anju house is a great place for cozy dinner party, part Korean drinking den, chaotic fusion experience, and it really works. The foods are great. The drinks are better and the parking is boss. Thank you for the staff and service for being a patient host. read more

Ambiance: 10/10 Food: 7/10 - mid Maybe I had higher expectations than I should have, but the food felt like it was gentrified, non-authentic Korean food. Cheese corn: kernels were huge and not nearly as creamy as it should be. Cheesy, but lacked flavor. Cracked corn: good flavor and texture. Bulgogi fries: where was the bulgogi? It was fries with a sprinkle of bulgogi. Very, very underwhelming. Kimchi bacon pasta: delish. But did not have any Korean or Asian flavor. Neither did it have any kimchi flavor. It tasted like tomato sauce mixed with heavy cream with smoked bacon flavor. Galbi: really good, but nothing great to suffice the $45 cost. Kimchi fried rice: lacked flavor. Rice cake: it's hard to mess this up; it was good as expected. Pineapple soju: my friends really enjoyed it and presentation was nice. All in all, underwhelming food, amazing ambiance. Wouldn't care to come back, but glad I tried it! read more

Came on a Friday night & service was super quick once seated! They also have a cute waiting room in the front fully decked out for xmas which is nice. From ordering to getting the food & paying, they were quick with it which I appreciated. My group ordered combo C w/ Rose Dukboki & Jampong, which came with a free bottle of soju/beer. We chose soju! We also ordered kimchi bacon pasta seeing it was their bestseller too. All the food was delicious & perfectly seasoned, flavorful. Rose dukboki had perfectly chewy rice cake, egg, fishcake. Jambong had a variety of seafood: mussel, crab, shrimp, + thick noodles. Kimchi bacon pasta was so creamy! My only complaint was they gave us burnt bread with our pasta. Hoping that they can improve on the consistently good quality next time. But great vibes here overall & I like the lively ambiance. Great place to hang out with friends. They also have a cute photobooth in the corner too! Would come back to try their other dishes! read more

First got to the place and tried finding parking. However, we didn't find any so instead we paid for valet. Then waited for about 45min-1hr, there was a dodgers game that day, which was understandable. We got called in after, and the waiters were great and understanding because we still didn't know what to order. Luckily, everything we ordered was amazing. Food came out in a timely manner as well! The fries were great, there was this ranch like sauce but tasted more like a tangy ranch, close to like a salad dressing. Okonomiyaki was very delicious. Was crispy with a soft texture inside. Same with the cracked corn. I did not understand the condense milk, which was a bit scary, but honestly if this is your first time, you should try it, it's addicting. The chicken was also great, the crunch was amazing and the batter to chicken ratio was perfect. I would get that again. Overall, the ambience was not too loud and the restaurant was clean. Restroom was also very clean. Would go here again if it was not too busy. read more

Anju House never misses. Every time I come I get the Kimchi Bacon Pasta and it is always amazing. Rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. This time we also got the Bulgogi and I think it might actually be even better than the pasta which says a lot because the pasta is my go to. We tried the Original Chicken too. My friend ordered it and it comes pretty simple with sauce on the side. Personally I like chicken with a little more seasoning but if you are into something lighter this is a good option. The vibe here is what makes me keep coming back. Cozy, cute, and perfect for dinner with friends. The string lights give it such a warm feel and it is also a fun spot if you want to pregame or celebrate a birthday. They have watermelon soju and plenty of drinks to choose from. Overall it is one of my favorite spots to hang out, eat good food, and just enjoy the atmosphere. read more

I knew this place was going to be good as soon as I saw the waiting area strung up with lights and furnished with couches with a baseball game playing on the tv. It was warm, cozy, calming, and a little nostalgic. This place seems to stay busy but it really picks up around 7. It's the perfect place to catch up with friends and share a couple plates. The staff were so kind, patient, and friendly here. Our server even went out of their way to give me a complimentary slice of cake for my birthday which was so sweet. I also liked that they spaced out each dish so my friends and I really had the chance to savor each one. We ordered the furikake wings, kimchi pancake, bulgogi rice, fried dumplings, their blueberry lemon mint smash, and a bottle of soju. My favorite was definitely the kimchi pancake! I also loved the flavor on the wings and bulgogi, although the rice underneath the bulgogi was underwhelming and the wings seemed to be a little more batter than chicken. I would definitely love to explore their other dishes the next time I come back, but I will definitely be ordering the kimchi pancake and soju cocktails again. I was blown away by their cocktails which were beautifully garnished and well-balanced. read more

Just moved to the area from San Diego (shout out Convoy Korean Food!). This place was so cozy and had such a cool vibe. We sat outside and while it was quiet when we went, we could envision this place getting super loud on weekends in the nighttime. Service was super quick, they came out with the food probably within 10 min or less. The Korean Fried Chicken was pretty crunchy and served with this green onion salad. Very strong onion flavor but cut through all of the richness so this was a really good combo. Kimchi Bacon Pasta was really good, I will say though that I didn't taste much of the Kimchi since it was mostly creamy. But overall very good anyway. Will definitely be coming back and telling all of my friends and family (bringing my dog too since I think they're dog friendly!) read more

Famished after a concert and looking for a spot open late, we stumbled across Anju House. Don't let the exterior fool you. While it looks like a house, it's completely converted into a pub/restaurant with a rather large seating area in the "backyard" for large groups. We put down our group on the waitlist and got seated within 15 minutes, even though 2 people in our group was still stuck in traffic trying to leave the parking lot after the concert nearby. The five of us already there decided to order a bit of everything to try it all. Since we were a larger group with a larger order, the food did take a while to come out. We split the okonomiyaki fries ($13.95), bulgogi fried rice ($20.95), seafood pancake ($25.95), and bulgogi dukboki ($25.95). We were so hungry that everything hit the spot and we ate up practically everything except a piece of the seafood pancake and the garnishes on the other dishes. One thing we forgot to do that you should always do is order the pancake extra crispy. It really makes a difference! We all also wanted some caffeine for some energy since we were exhausted after the concert. We tried ordering the Vietnamese latte and other coffees, but they were already out. We ended up ordering cans of Coke and Diet Coke ($2.95) and an iced peach tea ($5.95) instead. All in all, we appreciate the late night Korean hot food, the minimal wait to be seated, and the large tables available for groups. You can valet for $5 or find a decent amount of free street parking nearby. read more

One of my go-to spots in Ktown for late night bites and a good hangout/date spot! This most recent time I visited, I ordered the Bulgolgi Bibimbap and Korean Fried Chicken and both of them were pretty good. The bibimbap was served in a hot stone pot which kept the food warm, but I wish it was a bit hotter so it could crisp up the rice at the bottom. The rice dish itself was good though, a good mix of rice, egg, veggies and meat which meshed altogether with the sweet and spicy gochuchang sauce. The Korean Fried Chicken was tasty too. The chicken was fried nicely and had a crunchy and crispy batter coating. Covered in the sweet and sticky sauce, it was yummy. However, I wish the chicken was more juicy and less dry though. It also came with some rice cakes and garlic which I liked as well. The ambiance of this place is really nice. I love sitting outside in the covered patio with all the lights and décor, super vibey. The service was pretty good as well. For parking, it's street parking and valet only. There is a parking lot next to the restaurant, but DO NOT park there, you will get towed and there's signs explicitly saying do not park there. My friend got towed there once :( The food is a bit pricey for what it is, but I honestly like the vibes of this place which makes up for it. I recommend this place and I will regularly keep coming back here! read more
