Current running special as of 05/30/26 -- Bogo
Anna H.

Current running special as of 05/30/26 -- BOGO Mocktails! This Korean BBQ restaurant is a great spot for a fun, interactive dining experience. The meats are fresh and well-marinated which come out tender and flavorful on the grill. The variety of side dishes adds a nice balance to the meal, and everything is constantly refilled. Service is attentive, especially when helping with grilling or refills. Overall, it's a solid place if you're looking for good food, a social vibe, and a hands-on dining experience.

Beef combo
Zhang X.

My friend and I ordered the Small Beef Combo for two, and it was absolutely delicious. The beef was high quality, tender, juicy, and full of flavor. Every cut was excellent, especially the marinated short rib and ribeye. The portions were generous for two people, and all of the side dishes were fresh and tasty. We also loved the kimchi pancake and stew that came with the combo. A special shoutout to Tommy for providing outstanding service. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. His excellent service made the dining experience even more enjoyable. Great food, great atmosphere, and excellent service. Definitely one of the best Korean BBQ experiences I've had. Highly recommend the Beef Combo, and we'll definitely be coming back!

One thing I really appreciate is that the servers cook the meat for you, which makes the whole experience so much more pleasant -- you can just relax, eat, and enjoy chatting with friends instead of worrying about the grill. We went on a Thursday around 6 PM and there was a bit of a line, but by 7:30 PM it was almost empty. So for weekdays, if you don't have a reservation and don't want to wait, coming after 7 PM may be a good idea. Not sure about weekends, but weekday timing definitely matters. Our favorite meat was the marinated short rib -- so juicy and flavorful, almost wagyu-like, with that melt-in-your-mouth tenderness. Definitely the highlight of the meal for us. Great food, easy experience, lively atmosphere, and perfect for a casual dinner with friends.

I was craving KBBQ and decided to stop by. We ordered the small combo, and luckily the wait was only about five minutes. Food is always delicious here. The service was great our server, Chain, was really kind and checked on us multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed. I'll definitely be coming back again.

beef tartar
Johnny Q.

Vincent helped us cook the meat to perfection and was on top of service. We got the large marinated beef and small beef for a group of 7 and it was comfortable. Got seated fairly quickly on a friday evening. Large variety of side dishes brought out fresh. Jeff was very enthusiastic and helpful with getting us more side dishes and napkins. Would definitely come again. Service was 10/10 The beef tartar had an off taste/smell to it but if you could overlook that it wasn't too bad with pears and the egg yolk. I've had better beef tartar elsewhere. (7/10)

I like getting their Hodong's favorite combo since it comes with both beef and pork. I like how there are two different sizes. The small is good for 2-3 people and a large would be good for a party of 4+. I like how they include cold tofu as one of their side dishes as a lot of kbbq places. They also give big pieces of kimchi compared to other places I go to which I like. The meat is good quality and I really like their pancakes. Their combo comes with your choice of soybean or kimchi stew. Their stews are always too salty for me. I always have to add water to it so it's more bearable to eat. They are usually very busy so service isn't the best. Parking is also hard to find especially on a Friday and Saturday night since they share the parking lot with Meet Fresh, Planet Fitness, etc. I highly suggest making a reservation during the weekend dinner so you don't have to wait too long. They currently have a bogo drink special.

This kbbq place delivers an authentic Korean dining experience especially for meat lovers. The atmosphere is energetic and often bustling, which adds to the fun but can mean longer wait times during peak hours. The parkings during the weekend can be hectic since they do share the plaza with many other stores and also the gym. They cook the meat for you so it's not a kbbq place where you cook the meat yourself so if you like that, then this place might not be for you. The meat is pretty good quality and I like how they have combo so that you can try different types of meat with a discounted price. I also like how they include steam eggs and corn cheese.

Bella S.

Gave them a 2nd chance and it's still mediocre. Service was not good; the waiter in the red shirt had an attitude and made us feel rushed with our dining experience. He also forgot to bring our drinks requiring us to remind them. Later, we had a different staff (Chris), who was much nicer and pleasant to deal with. He cooked our meat at a slower pace and did not make us feel rushed. Meat quality was so-so; definitely had better. They cook the meat for you, which is not my preference as I prefer cooking it myself and at my pace. It is annoying that they cook the entire meat dish all at once almost forcing you to eat all of it before cooking the next meat dish. I like to eat a variety of cuts at different times and again, more at my own pace, so this style of cooking is really not for me. A lot of their meats are flavorless. It's fully dependent on the dipping sauce and salt.

Jonathan T.

Baekjong is my go to favorite for kbbq if you want a hands-off experience and excellent service. Their meat combos make it easy to order and they come out in a careful cadence so you're not overwhelmed. Theres always an interesting deal going around so make sure to ask! Overall a great spot for a big celebration or birthday.

Magan C.

Love it here ! The wait is always worth it. Service is amazing and meat quality is always impeccable.

Frank S.

This is the only Korean bbq spot I go to in SGV. You don't need to fight. Put your name down. Go grab a drink. Come back and eat. It's clean and delicious. It's not an AYCE. It's not a cheap KBBQ spot. This is not why you come. It's a quality spot. Thankfully

I love coming to this place for KBBQ. There are different types of meats to choose from as well as combo deals. They have friend service & they are very attentive. The ambiance is modern & you get to hear the latest K-POP hits. What I like about this KBBQ is with the good ventilation you don't come out smelling like KBBQ. This is my favorite KBBQ in the SGV and it's always a treat to come here.

We got the Hodong's Favorite Combo.
Phung T.

We got the Hodong's Favorite Combo and it was delicious! I love how they cook the egg and cheese corn on the grill. Meat was juicy and full of flavor.

Great food.

Hi there, when I check in at the counter with the hostess, can I add add a note that I may take longer than 10 minutes to walk back to the restaurant when I get the text notification ? I don't want to loose my turn again. Much appreciated. Mitchel.

Since they use Yelp waitlist, I would suggest checking the Yelp app to see your position in line so you can plan accordingly. The host wouldn't know how long to wait if you say "longer than 10 minutes". Is that 15 minutes or 20 minutes or did you… Read more

We didn't realize what a big portion this would be the first time we ordered it, but it's definitely shareable or you can do what we do: add a combo for extra food to take home for leftovers =P I do also wish they added more broth/water to their tofu soup because it always seems so dry after they bring it out. Their Beef Ribs area also good! Their banchans are good (some are a bit on the sweet side). Service is still quick and restaurant is clean. One unisex restroom in the back that's clean. Parking lot is still a doozy but this plaza is always really busy.

Still Our Favorite Tofu Spot -- Had to Bring the Family This Time!…read more Of course we had to come back to our favorite tofu spot, and this time we brought the family for a belated Mother's Day dinner after raving about this place nonstop. Best part? We saw Shelly, our favorite girl that works here! She's always so sweet, kind, and welcoming every single time we visit. It honestly makes the experience even better when you're greeted by familiar friendly faces. We came around 7:30 PM and the wait was only about 10 minutes, which honestly wasn't bad at all considering how popular this place gets. Service was quick, efficient, and the food kept coming out fast. Plenty of tables inside, so it never felt too cramped. This time around we ordered: * Jap Chae * Bulgogi with Beef & Seafood Tofu Combo * Spicy Pork w/ seafood & beef combo * Teriyaki Chicken w/ seafood & beef tofu * Bulgogi with All Seafood & Beef Tofu Combo And of course... the unlimited refills of the banchan are always one of the best parts. Honestly, sometimes I think I could make a full meal out of just those alone. Everything was flavorful, comforting, and exactly why we keep coming back every couple of months. I will say the prices have slowly been creeping up little by little each visit, but honestly, we still enjoy it every time. Still our go-to tofu spot and definitely one we'll continue bringing family and friends to. Happy eats!

I do say this is my go-to spot for Korean comfort food in Arcadia at Omma Tofu House. Located…read moreinside the food court next to 99 Ranch and Sunright Studios (delicious boba), this place has become my regular for convenient, satisfying Korean meals. Their cold noodle dish is easily one of the best within a 15-mile radius. Honestly, there's not much competition in the area, so it's more about convenience versus driving farther for the absolute best, but Omma delivers consistently good quality that keeps me coming back. The bulgogi plate is a must-order when dining in. There's something special about that sizzling hot plate arriving at your table with the meat still bubbling and caramelizing. The banchan is standard fare with basic kimchi, nothing to speak home about but expected for standard Korean cruisine. What I appreciate most is how family-friendly this place is. The food court setting offers plenty of spacious seating, and parking in the lot is never an issue. I mostly do pickups and there's usually no wait time. The one time we did sit down to eat, I noticed a steady stream of delivery orders going out, which speaks to their popularity. It's not fancy, but for quick, reliably good Korean food in a convenient location with easy parking, Omma Tofu House hits the spot. Perfect for those times when I'm craving cold noodles or sizzling bulgogi without the hassle.

I decided to try to go in person and order my usual bibimbap + seafood tofu soup. I remember extra banchan can be ordered but not sure about dine in. I ordered directly with the server who handed me a buzzer to wait for my order to be called. It took an around 10minutes for the food the be ready. I had two trays, one for soup and banchan and the other for bibimbap. You mix your bowl of rice (be careful since the bowl is metal and hot!) into the bibimbap bowl, add sauce (only spicy version they do not have nonspicy sauce!) and mix!! It has all sorts of veggies and meat bits and a fried egg. You can also add all the banchan in as well but we wanted to eat them separately with each bite. They gave us a raw egg (crack it in the soup asap if you don't want it runny!) which I cracked into the hot stone soup, be careful because the bowl is super hot!! I think someone melted our tray with is be fair because the tray was morphed as well. Soup was delicious, love the tiny shrimps, clams, and oyster pieces inside with plenty of tofu which I mixed into bibimbap as well. Banchan was 5 dishes! Potato's salad is new to me as I'm used to their kimchi, seaweed, bean sprouts and fish tofu dishes. All great! Enough food so I didn't ask if they give extra banchan or a price or free. Once we were done we returned the tray and bowls to the restaurant. Glad I tried this is person! Still amazing and worth the wait.

It was sooo savory and good!! I usually tap out after one steamed egg but I ended up ordering another one because it was just that good. The corn cheese was just okay to me but it got cold and hard really fast. For the meats, we tried a lot of different things. Usually beef belly is one of my favs but I thought this one was a bit thick and hard. All the other cuts though were incredible, like the beef tongue, galbi, flat iron, and pork jowl. The pork jowl was actually both our favorites because it just melted in our mouths! They were quick with changing our grills and asking us if we wanted more meats so service was great! I'd come back if I was in the area but probably wouldn't drive out just for this place.
