I grew up in Koreatown all throughout the 90s and very glad this place is still around. Also glad…read morethey've been taking a jab at social media. It deserves to be known. It's actually interesting to see a diverse crowd hang out here compared to back then when it was nothing but Korean people. The first floor retains most of the stores that existed back then too; Music Plaza which always had an insane selection of Korean music, the quaint coffee shop near the food court, the stationary store and bookstore near the elevator and of course the Food Court itself. Has the best prices of all sorts of Korean cuisine out there; I always gravitate towards the Dddukgook (Rice Cake Soup). The H-Mart used to be the mall's own market (called Plaza Market). I was a small kid back then, but it's quite congested as a grown adult over 6 foot tall. The layout is exactly the same from back then and I love it. There used to be a very tiny bakery next to the H-Mart on the left, but they have a much larger bakery on the right. The decor is still that same 80s-esque pink and teal tile, which I hope they never change. The second floor used to have this toy store that used to sell all sorts of Power Rangers and Pokemon toys. I miss it dearly, albeit I believe it was very overpriced back then lol. I believe it's the mail store now. The third floor used to have this appliance/electronics store called "ABC Plaza". It had literally everything from USA albums, Korean appliances, and a whole section for Japanese import games. As a kid it felt like paradise. I believe it's now turning into a gym, which is cool in itself. My wife bought me some Pokemon cards from that toy store near the food court, and it reactivated all my memories. Please stay around, K-Town Plaza!

The elevator has a 4-person limit and going over that will cause the elevator to become stuck and beep very loud (which is so sketchy). The permit listed on the elevator expired in 2023 as well. It's always lively and bustling with younger AND older generations of Koreans plus plenty of non-Koreans looking to explore the culture! As someone who has lived in Koreatown his whole life, this place is a pillar of Korean-American culture. By the way, cell reception is completely non-existent in many areas of the mall including H-Mart and the food court. Restrooms are on the first floor.

Parking is free (thank goodness) and is located in a small multi-level mini mall. I mainly come here for spices, sauces and seasoning as they are better priced than bigger chain markets. Also worth the grab are their marinated meats, ready to be cooked. The beef bulgogi was so good when grilled over charcoal. They also have all the sides in the refridgerated section such as seaweed salads, kimchi and marinated squid. My most recent "a ha!" moment is finding the Korean fried chicken in the ready-to-eat deli section. Absolutely delicious and affordable! I no longer want to get takeout wings or Korean fried chicken at restaurants when I can get them here.

We strolled around (the Plaza) a bit, which isn't what you'd call a big place. Unfortunately, during this visit, we didn't patronize any of the few restaurants there. Not because we weren't hungry but because we just wanted to see what was there. We were bent on going to another Thai restaurant called OCHA, down the road'a'piece from the New Hollywood Plaza. But when we DO choose one of them, I'll report it later. Thanks.

I called the store and they told me I had to come at a later time for a refund. I asked if I could just send a photo of the receipt and picture of the food I didn't want to be carrying moldy food and a receipt I had to fish out of the trash and do a round trip for a $2.75 refund. They said that's all they could offer. I had to take the day off because I felt unwell after eating the moldy food but that wasn't even a concern of theirs. I am so disgusted by this entire experience. Avoid their food products.

Fantastic must-visit shopping plaza in Chinatown. It felt so nostalgic for me to come back here…read morebecause it reminds me of my youth and grandparents! I used to come here often as a kid, and the feel/essence of the place has stayed the same! There's so many different shops ran by hard working and often elderly folks. There's shops that sell kitchenware, clothes, shoes, luggage, art, toys, and even a sewing business. Everything was extremely affordable and the quality of products weren't bad. Some stores look closed, but don't be fooled... this place is large and it's easy to get lost. There weren't many visitors or customers walking around. I do worry about if this place will sustain another generation. I sincerely hope it can stay alive for a long time to come Overall, this is a great shopping plaza that I recommend LA Chinatown visitors to visit.

Since it is almost Tet, there are lots of decor and li xi (lucky red letter envelopes) being sold here. You can get knock off bags like Kipling. There are lots of pajamas, ao dai (traditional Vietnamese clothing) and Chinese outfits. There are kids clothes, shoes, toys and pajamas. The workers sometimes will try to sell or advertise their stuff to you but they're not pushy about it. I came on a Monday so it was empty and easy to navigate. They had t-shirts for $10 for 3 and women's pants for $5. The bad: It can be difficult to find street parking. We got metered parking a few blocks down. The interesting: There are food vendors here too and a spooky restroom with flickering lights.
