Some are better like the Mandu since it's deep fried. Location is the next to the AYCE KBBQ. Their price is very reasonable. Lunch special is cheap only $8.99. Very basic dining area and ambiance. Service is the same. Sometime feels rush with Ajuma, the aunty. Once meal is done, check is coming right away. Good food with good price and portions.

Consistent quality, generous portions, and a comfortable space. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you're in the area.

Everything came out fresh, hot, and delicious -- especially the crispy rice at the bottom of the bowl The banchan was also really good and hit the spot. My only small wish was for a little more gochujang sauce. They gave a 2 oz container, but an extra one would've made it absolutely perfect for the amount of bibimbap. Overall, really appreciated the service and hospitality even right before closing. Would definitely come back!

Not really space to eat inside. The bento box was around 16 dollars and was very good! The pork katsu was light fluffy and juicy. I usually don't care for rice but I enjoyed this box more than I thought I would. The potato salad and little appetizer were interesting, my bf is Korean and we both enjoyed this and would get this again especially if we wanted quick bite or lunch Togo. They seem to have a lot of orders for Thanksgiving catering too so I bet they have other items that are delicious! Planning to come back to this mom pop shop and recommending for corporate lunches.

Major Dumpling is a great spot for XLB…read more Honestly, this outshines other "major" dumpling spots with long lines. We enjoyed this more so than the two big ones from South Coast Plaza and were stunned by the quality of their food here. We enjoyed every bite. We couldn't find a flaw in any of their dishes. Each dish was flavorful and you just couldn't get enough. The serving size is generous too. You really get your moneys worth here. The service here is excellent too. They only had one server here when we visited but she gave great service to everyone in the restaurant. She was attentive and very hospitable which made our experience even more pleasant. The place is fairly small and the overall aesthetics of the restaurant is fine. You're here for the food, not the ambiance. Skip those long lines and go here instead. Trust me, it's worth the visit.

I'm happy that I did, because Bunsik 88 is an amazing gem located right in the heart of Rowland Heights. It has only been open for about a year, and I'm looking forward to seeing Jason, the owner, expand his storefront to other locations. I talked with him while I ate, and I learned that he cares a great deal about providing premium ingredients to ensure the best taste for his customers. He makes all of the food that day, so everything is fresh. Now on to the food: the kimbap is filling and tasty, and I like the options for different fillings. The sausage and rice cake skewer was the perfect balance of savory and sweet, which left me wanting more. I ended up getting some coin cakes: cheese and red bean. I watched Jason make it right in front of me, and ate it right when it was still piping hot. That coin cake was delicious - perfectly chewy and not too sweet. If you're ever in the mood for Korean comfort food, check out Bunsik 88!

This tiny to go spot has changed businesses and hands so many times, it's been a mochi donut place,…read morereskinned twice and several other businesses too. Very hard to compete, especially since it's not the easiest to get parking and getting into this plaza. With that in mind, Bunsik 88 has always been on my recommended list, but I only had the chance to try out their food recently. We got our order to go, and by the time we got back home, everything was still decently warm and not too soggy for the fried foods. For our dinner, we got the: 1) Sausage and Rice Cake Skewer: -It's Korean mini sausages and rice cakes on a skewer, glazed with a sweet spicy sauce. -I know it's a simple dish, but it was my favorite from the order. -A bit more sweet than savory but went really well with the saltiness from the sausage and I always love the chewiness of rice cake. 2) Fried Sweet Potato: -Crispy sweet potato tempura, lightly sweet. -Not bad and not too oily or soggy either. Slight crisp chew from the sweet potato, light breaded fried layer. 3) 88 Seaweed Rolls: -Glass noodle stuffed seaweed rolls, battered and fried. -This is my dad's favorite. It's a staple of Korean street snack foods. -Love the crispiness of the fried battered seaweed and the glass noodles with some sesame oil to taste, went perfect with it. 4) Tuna Kimbap & Bulgogi Beef Kimbap: -Both are made with veggies and seasoned rice. Fillings include tankuan (pickled radish), eggs, and veggies (carrots, greens). -It's a sizeable kimbap serving and more than enough to feed several people. Protein was a decent portion of the kimbap too. -I think my only issue was that both were way too "sweet" in flavor for my taste. I know they use sesame oil and I like that slight savory, roasted flavor, but this style of kimbap wasn't really what I prefer. Most of my family was just okay with this too. 5) Korean Corn Bread (Custard and Mozzarella): -My friends and I have accidentally had a frozen version of this before, and it wasn't microwaved or heated up, so I was excited to try this how it's ACTUALLY meant to. -The size of the coin bread is quite big. Around the size of my yaoi hands. -However, other than that the bread was just okay. I think if you put filling into a "bread", taiyaki or manjoo is a better fit. The "bread" part got soggy pretty quickly and isn't as fulfilling and yummy as a sweet (slightly savory with the cheese) treat as the other pastries I mentioned. Service was efficient and there were no other orders there or customers waiting in line. It's a relaxed and cute spot, but seating is extremely limited due to the size of the place. Like 2 stool seats and a tiny counter, so it's definitely a to go place unless you're dining with only you and at maximum another person. Honestly, maybe what I ordered wasn't the best, but since I can just swing over to Diamond Bar, I think this was just okay.

I've been coming to this food court restaurant for over 20 years. Back then, it was run by two…read moreKorean ladies and a Korean gentleman who did the cooking. Now, only one of the original Korean ladies remains. The menu used to be very simple, and my favorites were the Jjamppong (spicy seafood noodle soup), Jajangmyeon, King Dumplings with their special dipping sauce (a delicious mix of soy sauce and chili), and their sweet and spicy fried chicken. The only side dishes were pickled yellow radish and kimchi。 Over the years, the menu has expanded quite a bit. On my recent visit, I tried the pork cutlet. It was decent, but nothing particularly memorable. The portion was generous with two large pork cutlets, cabbage salad, and a bowl of rice. However, the salad was simply shredded cabbage with a very basic dressing that didn't seem homemade or unique. I used to order their sweet and spicy fried chicken regularly, but the quality has gradually declined over the years. Unfortunately, my most recent experience was disappointing enough that I don't plan to order it again. These days, I mainly stick to their noodle dishes and dumplings, which are still the items I enjoy the most. While the restaurant has changed over the years, it still holds a lot of nostalgia for me after two decades of dining here.

Please look at the featured photos under spicy seafood soup. Food: I got the jjampong, tangsuyuk, and steamed mandu. The jjampong is spicy and has a fire taste from the charred vegetables in the soup. The seafood is perfectly cooked, and I really enjoyed how they peel the shrimp for you. The tangsuyuk was very crispy and their sauce is delicious, balanced, and tastes homemade. Their mandu is huge and filled with a pork and green onion filling. I got this order for take out. They provide extra side dishes and sauces for each dish as needed. I heated up the soup and toasted up the tangsuyuk. It still tasted so flavorful and crispy, but I highly recommend eating there. Service and Ambiance: The restaurant is tucked inside a Hannamchain. One man took my order and then cooked it. He was super sweet, making sure that he heard my order correctly. He cooked with passion and technique.
