    My boyfriend and I explored the area and started here! The reviews were good so how could it go wrong. The breakfast sandwich was rich but yummy! I paired it with their Korean green tea latte and not bad. My boyfriend liked the breakfast sandwich as well. It was a hot day so we sat inside but there is outdoor seating too. The service was good. Price was affordable.

    Bodega Chopped Cheese
    Austin B.

    tl;dr the chopped cheese is simple yet sophisticated; pair it with an eclectic coffee or tea for a surprisingly bougie take on bodega fare Although the chopped cheese is a bodega staple, these sandwiches fly under the radar even to native New Yorkers. For the uninitiated, the classic chopped cheese combines chopped ground beef, American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and condiments atop a hero roll; the result falls somewhere between a cheeseburger and a cheesesteak. Admittedly, I was never too impressed by the frill-free chopped cheeses in the Bronx -- the flavor reminded me most of a fast-food ground beef taco. Nonetheless, Angelinos flock to Chef Eric Park's Korean-ish coffee bar and sandwich shop Bodega Park for their tribute to the chopped cheese. Bodega Park's minimalist exterior and diminutive logo aren't as eye-catching as the neighboring wine shop and tattoo parlor. Outside, shamrock-green metal patio furniture is arranged underneath a row of white umbrellas. The interior is decidedly modern and minimalist. The cracked concrete floors are polished, and sunlight flows in through the windows. The whitewashed walls are decorated just with light wood slats and a Dodgers-esque Bodega Park sweater. Comfy upholstered chairs are pressed up to the sleek tables, and contemporary rap echoes around the room. I've been multiple times for weekday lunch, and the queue has varied from nonexistent to trailing out the door. Most recently, I opted for the signature Bodega Chopped Cheese, as well as a Misugaru Black Sesame. My sandwich was deceptively delicious. My favorite component was the panini-pressed sesame hero roll, which put standard hoagie rolls to shame. The sesame-forward flavor was addictive, and the crispy texture held up surprisingly well to the toppings. Meanwhile, my rich, nutty misugaru was topped with an addictive sesame crema. The espresso version reminded me of a premium Frappuccino, while the espresso-free version channeled cookies & cream shake vibes. The service was efficient, and my bill ran $25. The least palatable part of the meal was the price. But Park's premium take on bodega fare intentionally caters to the Silverlake crowd, and he delivered the first chopped cheese that has left me game for seconds.

    Best thing: Bacon. Delicious BEC (bacon-egg-cheese). The roll is so good and the crispy bacon was fantastic. Pro tip - ask for the hot sauce, it's got a good smokey taste and adds to the sandwich. Minimalist, calm interior with very nice service. I will definitely go back. I really want to try the Italian sando and coffee/matcha drinks. Glad I finally checked this place out. Really like it.

    Got the olive oil tuna. Great sandwich. Bread was fresh, everything tasted really good. Just wish the tuna to bread ratio was higher. Had the vanilla latte with their homemade vanilla, and that was pretty bomb too. Stellar service, I'll be back soon to try the egg sandwich.

    This is the spot for a chopped cheese in Southern California. Bodega Park is a fast casual Korean-American spot that's bringing well-done breakfast to Silverlake. The chopped cheese is killer. It's high quality ground beef, ooey gooey melted cheese, and fresh veggies all on a perfect roll. This is your hangover cure.  The breakfast burrito is awesome. It's extremely flavorful. The chicken is tender, the tortilla is warm and crispy on the outside, and the whole thing is dripping cheese. An underrated option for the breakfast burrito scene in LA. The coffee here is also good. I got the black sesame iced latte, and they put a lot of black sesame foam on, making it a decadent, rich, and nutty way to get your caffeine. I would highly recommend for a morning pick me up. I came here to grab a quick breakfast after walking the Silverlake Reservoir and it was the perfect way to refuel.

    Bacon egg cheese sandwich

    If you're craving a simple breakfast sandwich - I think this is your spot. I was absolutely craving a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich to get my day started. I checked Yelp for "breakfast sandwich" and after reading a bit on how this was once Black Hogg- I was convinced. There's plenty of metered street parking just in front on Sunset but if you're looking for free parking there's oodles just a few blocks away. As always, read the signs :) I walked in, ordered and waited a few minutes for my bag. While I waited there were at least 8 sandwiches that had gone out to the restaurant patrons seated both inside and outside. All sandwiches which looked large/long and lovingly wrapped. I made a mental note to come back for one! The sandwich was perfectly gooey and balanced. The bun was soft and simple but a touch too powdery for me. I finished the sandwich with flour everywhere- including on my poor black cat who had jumped in my lap lol. I'll be back, soon!

    Bodega Chopped Cheese 5/5 Korean Hott Fried Chicken 5/5 Waffle Fries 3.5/5 Black Sesame Chocolate Chip Cookie 5/5 Service 4/5 Atmosphere 4/5 Overall 5/5 We came to try the Bodega Chopped Cheese and it was all it was hyped up to be! We got here around 1:00 pm, fortunately just before a large line formed. This place can get really busy! And I understand why - the food is so fantastic here. We ordered the Bodega Chopped Cheese, the Korean Hott Fried Chicken, and some Waffle Fries. While at the cashier we saw in the window display the Black Sesame Chocolate Chip Cookie and we had to try it. We were so hungry - we actually ended up having dessert first! The cookie had the perfect texture, a mix of crunchy and chewy, and the perfect taste - not too sweet and the savory black sesame paired so well with the chocolate chip. The Bodega Chopped Cheese was mouthwatering and the ground Angus beef was succulent and flavorful. The fresh shredded lettuce and tomato brought brightness to the sandwich and balanced the beef and melted American cheese so well. We also ended up trying the chicken wings, which were juicy and delectable! They came with a Yuzu Crema - a top tier sauce. The wings were honestly delicious on their own and didn't need the Yuzu Crema, but that sauce did make the wing even better somehow. It was pretty busy here on a Saturday afternoon so I would like to come back on a random weekday and try more sandwiches. Parking can definitely be a hassle in Silver Lake, but the food at bodega Park is totally worth that hassle!

    Yuju Iced Green tea - but really here for their chopped cheese
    Ghalya M.

    I really wanted to like this spot but have given it numerous opportunities- every single time, my visit was a fail. The drinks leaves a lot to be desired for. The service is lukewarm at best with the people working there obviously not giving a care. There are 3 people working in a not yet busy morning. Also, make sure they do not give your order to someone else - happened to me last time and almost happened again today. Mind you, I have a unique name. The ambiance is average - typical coffee spot. The only redeeming factor is their chopped cheese. That is it. If you are craving coffee - there are so many better options with better customer service in the area. Go to Malaya or Gong Nam and to Ceci's for a hearty meal.

    Bacon egg and cheese on a roll
    Ashlee B.

    I wanted to like this place so badly, but I was left disappointed by the bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a toasted roll. There was an overwhelming amount of mayo and I would have preferred a bagel instead of the roll. Nonetheless, I'm still curious about the Korean fried chicken wings and breakfast burrito. If those items taste better than the bacon egg and cheese, then I'll definitely update the review at that time.

    Never had a chopped cheese. It was amazing. Will be back to try their other breakfast items.

    Some of my favorite sandwiches to get in LA is right here at Bodega Park! Hands down the bodega chopped cheese is my favorite good quality meats + fresh veggies topped with gooey cheese The Korean Hott Fried Chicken was a pass for me. 4 wings were around $13. It was not spicy at all and it was very tangy imo Waffle Fries crispy and good side for your sandwich! Meatball Sub Tried the limited edition meatball sandwich! Very juicy and flavorful. It was good to try a different sandwich but the bodega chopped cheese is superior heads up! this store is opened from 8 AM - 3 PM and closed on Mondays

    Black sesame coffee
    Mary K.

    This place was good! The turkey sandwich hit the sandwich cravings well I just wish the bread was less hard it was kinda hard to bite and eat but the inside was tasty. The black sesame coffee was good as well I just wish I got more black sesame flavor. Seating can be difficult if it's busy. Would come back!

    This was my second time coming to Bodega Park and have thoroughly enjoyed both my experience and the food items purchased! The Puro Misugaru Black Sesame Latte is to die forrrrr! I will be thinking about it for the rest of the week. Have tried both the Avo Egg & Cheese as well as the Avocado Fontina and liked both. Neither had a super complex palate but were super filling and enjoyable.

This location on Wilshire Blvd in Koreatown is the smallest of the three I've visited, with under 10 seats available. It's a compact shop, and most customers opt for takeout. It's a narrow shop, and most customers take their orders to-go. I've previously enjoyed the La Paradiso and La Toscana, with the La Paradiso being my personal favorite. For our first visit with our son, we asked the staff for recommendations, and they suggested either the Venice Beach (Turkey) or the New Yorker (Roast Beef). The staff was incredibly generous, offering a roast beef sample, which our son loved! We also appreciated them providing ice and straws for our water. We ordered the New Yorker ($19.00) with roast beef, porcini cream, tomato, and arugula. The sandwich was thoughtfully cut in half, perfect for sharing. The schiacciata bread boasts a crispy exterior and a soft, chewy interior, which beautifully complements the meats and cheeses. We opted to substitute the porcini cream for mozzarella, which was sliced into perfect bite-sized pieces and tasted incredibly fresh. The roast beef was thinly sliced and tender, the tomatoes were fresh and sliced to perfection, and the arugula added a delightful peppery crunch. It's a well-balanced sandwich and one of the best in LA. We would definitely order it again. A big thank you to the female staff member who expertly cut the meat and offered samples, assisting us in making the perfect choice for my son's sandwich. This experience was truly a positive one for our family. I would definitely return to AAV for the excellent food and service. Given the small size of the shop, takeout is recommended, especially during peak hours. The sandwiches at AAV are so good! Fuggedaboutit!

Adding insult to injury, when our food finally arrived, the server said, "Thank you so much for being patient!" That made me wonder if this kind of wait is normal. Instead of acknowledging that something had gone wrong, it felt like the long wait was simply being brushed off. The frustrating part is that the sandwich and fries were excellent. The chicken sandwich really may have been the best I've ever had, which makes the whole experience even more disappointing. Great food, friendly people, but a 35-minute wait for a chicken sandwich in an almost empty restaurant is enough to keep me from going back.

The bread was hot and fresh, which are two of the most important things. Tuna Crudo - 9.1 The variation when we went contained lemon confit, thin sliced serrano peppers and basil. The lemon was outstanding and tasted like lemonade candy which paired well with the serrano and basil. Market Lettuces - 8.5 The cheese on the salad, ubriaco rosso, was delicious and it was our first time trying it. The greens were really fresh and lemon vinaigrette wasn't overpowering. Henrietta Potatoes - 8.9 I mean fried potatoes can only be so good. With that said this is about as good fried potatoes can be. They were soft, yet very crispy. The parm on top adds the perfect salt to balance it all out. The 8.9 is a reflection of how it compares to all foods or what we ate during the meal. If if was a rating of fried potatoes, it would be higher. Pork Collar - 9.4 It was great! It was almost as if you were eating a bite of steak. The temperature in which they decide for final preparation was perfect. The flavor was great and contained a hint of smoke. Ricotta Dumplings - 9.6 I would have to put this in my top 10 or 20 best dishes I have ever had. The dumplings were cooked perfectly. The star of the show is the broth. Hard to imagine the amount of mushrooms needed to get the depth of flavor and bold taste of this broth. The dish was comforting, delicious and something I could have eaten more of even after getting full. This is also something you'll want to save a little bread for. Baked Alaska - 8.2 They put their own spin on it. Instead of using ice cream, they use made in house tangerine sherbet. The bottom had a crumbled cookie base. When you have a bit that contains the toasted meringue, the crumbled cookie and just a little of the sherbet it tastes like lucky charms. Overall, awesome experience. Service/waiter gets a 10/10. Make a reservation and go!
