Love finding a local spot that's actually worth coming back to! We usually drive to K-Town when we're craving Korean food, so it was such a nice surprise to have a great option closer to home :) The service was warm, friendly, and quick. The banchan selection was plentiful and kept us happily snacking while we waited for our food. But the real star for me was the seafood pancake...crispy, packed with seafood, and absolutely delicious. Already looking forward to our next visit! read more

I have been wanting to try this place but I was really disappointed with the quality and flavor. The flavor was definitely lacking. I did, however, enjoy the complimentary side dishes - in particular the fish cake. That was yummy! Tell me why I wanted/ ordered soup when it was literally nearly triple digits. We also got an order of the Galbi, which also lacked flavor. Service was fine. They close from 3:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m., which we did not know but that was our fault. We went back at 4, and it wasn't busy. Nice size parking lot but it is on a busy street. Finding parking is not difficult though. read more

It was way better when it was Da Maat restaurant in the corner. I'm still sad they are gone. Sorry about my prior enthusiasm in my previous review... I was wrong. This place falls a little flat in taste/flavor to me compared to the best Korean restos in this area of LA. read more

Pretty solid Korean food with decent portions, enough for two to three meals! It's easy to order on the touchscreen at each table, and service was quick and efficient, if a bit cold. Bibimbap was tasty, although it could've used more punch in flavor; I also wished that it came with more gochujang, as the small amount wasn't enough for the entire dish. Not the best bibimbap I've had, but it did the trick. Overall, generous portions for a decent price! read more

Jang Su Jang - Vegetable bibimbap - Korean Near Me - Torrance, California

This restaurant strikes a great balance between a modern atmosphere and authentic Korean food. Even during the weekend lunch rush, I've always been able to get seated without much of a wait since the dining room is fairly spacious. I've tried quite a few dishes here, but my favorites are the galbi, tofu soups, and dolsot bibimbap. The galbi is definitely on the pricier side for the portion, but the quality and flavor of the beef make it worth ordering every time. The dolsot bibimbap is a generous portion, especially if you're sharing another entrée, and the crispy rice at the bottom is done just right. My go-to tofu soup is the kimchi and beef with medium spice, which always hits the spot. Everything comes out piping hot and is served with a generous selection of banchan. The restaurant is located in a plaza with plenty of parking. If you're in the South Bay and craving authentic Korean food without making the drive to Koreatown, this is an easy recommendation. read more

Phenomenal Korean food in Torrance. Favorite dishes include the seafood pancake, bosum, galbi jim. Delicious complimentary banchan. Friendly service. Casual ambiance with larger tables available for parties/ larger groups. read more

I can eat this food for days...and I did. Had my fill of Yookgejang and boiled dumplings at the restaurant and still had enough leftovers for 2 additional meals the following day. Granted I eat small to medium sized portions, but still the dishes were well=sized for anyone. I love the yookgejang kalguksoo that I ordered. It wasn't that spicy at all. It was a perfect amount of kick. I felt it had the right amount of beef, which was tender btw, and the noodles were superb. Beware though, the red sauce may splatter when you slurp up the noodles. The soup should probably come with a bib haha. I had some of the boiled dumplings which were good too, but the aesthetic of it was a bit off putting. They were enormous (huge plus) but the boiled ground pork inside looked a bit pink so I felt like I was eating someone's brain. When I took it home, I fried it up a bit snd it was 10x better. Service was good. Our food was prepared fairly quickly considering we were there during a busy lunch hour. Parking was easy and the restaurant was nice and clean. read more

I love how they always have new Banchan! I had their Chicken teri again (of course) & my hubby had their Bossam Jungsik (again, LOL). We sat in the sunroom for the 1st time which was really bright and roomy but VERY ECHOEY, our ears were hurting LOL :'(. Maybe next time back to the regular dining area. read more

We recently visited this place with a large party of 18 people- baby, kids, and adults- after a funeral. We got here on a Friday mid-afternoon and they were able to accommodate our large party fairly quickly, which was nice. Service was okay- there were about 2 people taking our orders. I'm not quite sure if it's because our group was large but some items came out fairly late/they needed to be reminded of our orders because it wasn't coming out in a timely manner. We ordered everything from tofu soup, kalgooksoo, dumplings, beef, cold noodle soup, fish, and etc...The portions are generous but not all the food tasted good. Please don't get me wrong, it wasn't the worst but the flavor was lacking in some (such as the cold noodle and kalgooksoo dishes). Out of what was ordered, I would say the dumplings were the best. Parking is able in the plaza. Overall, an okay place but not somewhere I'd go out of my way to come back to. read more

Jang Su Jang is nice and clean. It even has a wall decor full of bowls. Service is quick. They have screens you can order from, which makes it very quick and easy for you to order whenever you are ready. We usually get the Bossam Junsik and the yukgaejang Kalguksu The bossam is nicely presented and colorful. I like the pickled jalepenos that come with it. If you don't want it too spicy, just pick out the seeds. The yukgaejang Kalguksu has an extra kick is you want something with more flavor than just the regular Kalguksu. They provide like 8 side dishes. I like their kimchi, as it tastes fresh and not too fermented. Jang Su Jang is one of my go-to spots in Torrance whenever I crave Korean food. read more

I come here for convenience when visiting CA. It is a bit pricey, but the galbi and sides never disappoint and I appreciate the consistency. I always leave feeling full and thinking, "that hit the spot!" Service is always prompt and friendly. The booths are pretty comfortable and you're not too close to other patrons. We order on the screen which sends our dishes directly to the kitchen. You can add more throughout the meal as needed. Parking: ample parking in private lot. read more

Me: Tofu places are just too expensive, at least make it worth my while. Jang Su Jang: Hold my soju. This place absolutely lives up to expectations. Came here with coworkers who were visiting onsite. We were great by the kindest staff. Sweet, humble, and polite. They sat us by the window. They gave us an option to order on the tablet or with them. We asked for separate checks since some of us were on business travel. No problem! Winning already. Let's talk about the delicious food. ALL the banchan were flavorful. I couldn't pick a favorite and didn't have to. They refilled all our banchan at least once. A few of them, twice! Some other places, I usually favor a couple. Not here. All of them were delicious. The kalbi short came out sizzling and was so tender. Didn't even need the scissors. Pick it up by the bone and bite. Yum! Tofu soup, spot on! I opted for the seafood with medium spice. Perfect. Came out boiling hot. They cracked the egg for us so no mess there. And the flavor will blow your mind. I can actually taste the different seafood pieces. Shrimp was still firm. Ambiance. Clean, high ceilings, and spacious. I saw plenty of locals eating there as well as solo diners coming off work. Talk about treating yourself after a long day of work. Bathroom was super clean and well stocked. And now for the bonus, so much free parking!! Jang Su Jang is in a nice plaza with a huge parking lot. If you're in the area, please visit this fine establishment. read more

Overall great. We came on a Saturday afternoon. We were sat immediately. Ordering is on a tablet but staff did come by our table to take our order if we didn't want to use the tablet. I ordered through the tablet at the table and staff gave a thumbs up. Staff did take drink orders. We ordered the seafood pancake, L.A. Kalbi, and chicken kalguksoo. Everything was so good. All the banchan was so good. Inside is spacious and bright. Not loud at all. Very quiet. Will definitely be back to try japchae, beef bulgogi, and galbi jjim. read more

This is our new go to for soondobu and Korean soups. I recommend at least spicy level for the soondobu for better flavor. They have the purple rice but call it brown rice. You can order from your table on an iPad and the service is very quick with many servers walking around and managing all the tables. The banchan is really good and they have sliced omelets that I never see. We had the pork / bosam which was also very good with a nice presentation and my husband loved the galbi tang. The place is really clean and quick service but you can also sit and chill - they don't rush you out. We showed up at prime dinner time and only waited 5 min. read more

Came by for lunch with my coworkers yesterday while in the area, and realized there has been so much change in this plaza! I used to work near the area years back and frequented this plaza whenever I craved Korean food so yesterday I was trying to look for Da Maat again but could not find it! But I found Jang Su Jang located where Tour Les Jours used to be, few doors down from where Da Maat used to be and found out they reinvented, renovated Da Maat and Cho Dang tofu to come up with JSJ!! This place is huge and modern and beautiful! They still kept Da Maat signature of interior design with the wall decor of bowls and cups on the wall! This place is designed to host large parties and customers. There is a tablet at each table where you can place your order and everything is super clean! Service was great and food tastes the same! The dumplings were delicious and so was the banchan, tofu soup, and bibimbap! Their hand cut noodles were delish also! We all enjoyed this new restaurant and if I work closer to here I would love to come here frequently! read more

Wide selection of Korean dishes and solid complimentary side dishes. Love the clean and newer interior. Clean restrooms. Service was fine, typical of Korean restaurants - prompt and efficient, but not warm or friendly. Little higher than average prices for Korean restaurants but pretty good quality food. Convenient local restaurant with free and plentiful parking. read more

Jang Su Jang - Bibimbap - Korean Near Me - Torrance, California

Still a great place to go to in the Torrance area, nearby the Del Amo mall! This is my go to tofu soup place, where I come once a month-ish. The food is always super good, and the ban Chans are great. I will say they do have less variety since I first started going last year. The dishes are still great. As long as they're not a super packed house, th service is pretty fast and the Korean ladies who wait on you are super sweet & work super fast. Very clean and modern decor at the restaurant and the bathrooms are pretty big and clean. read more

It's been a while since I came to this place. It used to be called Da Maat in the past. It wasn't too packed on a weekday lunch time. We got seated immediately. The table has a tablet to order but you can also order through the servers that come by. I got the beef and seafood soondubu with medium spice. While my coworkers got the beef bibimbap and Galbitang. The soondubu had a good balanced taste as opposed to a strong anchovy or seafood broth of other soondubus I have had. Also really enjoyed the variety of banchans they give for the meal. The sweet soy glazed potatoes really surprised me with their savory and sweet flavor. Definitely recommend trying that. Bibimbap was good but my coworkers did wish there was more meat in it as opposed to the amount that was given. The galbitang was also a bit more bone than meat but the soup itself was very clean and hearty. Interior was very clean and had modern decorations. The bowl display lining the walls was a nice decorative touch. Service was good they checked in with us pretty often. Parking wasn't an issue it's a decent sized lot with other food places nearby. read more

Jang Su Jang in Torrance is the perfect cure to a hangover, and I speak from experience LOL. The restaurant is bright, clean, and welcoming right as you enter! The store is also very spacious with lots of seating. My friends have been here many times and were raving about it, so we decided to stop by the morning after our night out -- and it was much needed. I ordered the kimchi beef tofu soup and it was so comforting and flavorful -- exactly what my body needed. My table and I all shared the seafood pancake and it was amazingly crispy, savory, and satisfying! The sauce it came with was perfection and it was filling enough for everyone at the table to grab a few pieces. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, like warm comfort food for the soul. The staff were friendly, service was rather quick, and the overall vibe was chill. Highly recommend checking this place out! read more

Jang Su Jang - Kimchi Beef Tofu Soup, Seafood Pancake, etc. - Korean Near Me - Torrance, California

Jannnnnng, this place is goood! Let's start with the important part, plentyyyyy of parking and easy to get to; Big plus in my book always. Also they do take reservations, which is also a plus! To top it off the ambiance has an open modern feel to it which I really enjoyed as well. We were seated immediately and I really liked that they had the tablets to order your food from, it made it easier in my opinion to browse and order, but that doesn't take away from the service, everyone was nice and helpful as it was our first time too. We tried sooo many dishes but my favorites were definitely the Ddukbokki: I really liked the texture and the sauce was sooo flavorful, I could dip everything in it Seafood pancake: get it extra crispy, it really makes a difference in texture, and it definitely had a lot of seafood in it LA galbi: I really enjoyed the flavor and cook to this, it was tender and juicy, came right off the bone. I would come back for that exact order combo again. It is a bit on the pricey side, but the convenience of not having to go all the way to Ktown for some good Korean food is pretty worth it. I wish they offered corn cheese, that would make this place a go to for me for sure. All in all, I really did enjoy my dining experience, I will be back to try more dishes. Happy eats, loves! ^_^ read more

Came back to Jang Su Jang because the food is just that good. We came with four people and ordered the Mille-Feuille Nabe, two tofu soups (Dumpling Soon Tofu and Beef Soon Tofu), LA Galbi, and a Yachae Pajeon (Vegetable Pancake) -- everything was flavorful and satisfying. The banchan here is always a highlight, especially the kimchi, which is hands down my favorite. I also really appreciate that you can customize the spice level on the soon tofu -- makes it easy to get it just right. Still thinking about the raw marinated crab and already planning to come back for it. Great spot for a cozy, delicious Korean meal. read more

We came back and dined in this time, and the experience was excellent. There's plenty of seating, and it was especially appreciated that our guests using wheelchairs could sit comfortably at the table without feeling cramped. We ordered: * Seafood pancake - nicely crisp with a good amount of seafood. * Soft tofu soup - flavorful, though I personally would've liked a touch more seasoning. * Bossam (single serving) - tender and well portioned. * LA Galbi - juicy, well-marinated, and the favorite at the table. The service and ambiance really impressed us this visit -- both deserve a 5/5. Staff were attentive and friendly, and the dining area was comfortable and welcoming. Overall, the food quality remains strong and consistent, and the dine-in experience elevated things even more. Keeping this at a solid 4.5 stars, but now on the verge of a 5-star favorite. We'll definitely be back again! read more

Good food and good service! Went here on a recommendation and it was my first time trying it out. We were immediately greeted by friendly staff and got seated quickly. We ordered the tofu soup and the pork bossam, which were both flavorful but at the same time leaves something slightly to be desired. The flavor was maybe 80-90% there, but just missing that last "umph" to see it as a strong contender for other competitors. There's plenty of seating inside and they have tablet style ordering which makes it super easy to order food and also to request service when you need someone. Parking is also plentiful since it's inside a plaza. Overall, I'd recommend it to try. It's not the best I've ever had but it's still pretty good and hits the spot when you're craving it! read more

I recently ate lunch here. It was great! I did have a Korean speaking friend among our group, and that was a help. The wait staff was also helpful in answering our questions. I had bibimbap with octopus and squid. I had been warned it would be spicy. I told them medium was OK. It was not very spicy. I should have told them spicier. Either way, it was really good. It came is a cast iron bowl that seemed hotter than the sun. It never seemed to cool down until the food was gone. This place is clean. The decor is bright and cheerful. The staff is friendly and helpful. I am definitely going back. read more

Tried Jang Su Jong take-home and was really impressed! Everything was packaged so carefully -- no spills at all, even with soups. The cold noodle soup came with the perfect balance of hot mustard and vinegar, topped with an egg and plenty of beef. Refreshing and flavorful. The soon tofu had a generous amount of beef, rich broth, and came in cute, sturdy packaging that kept it hot and intact. They also included lots of banchan, all fresh and delicious. Overall, great quality, thoughtful presentation, and authentic flavors -- definitely recommend them! read more

Since the restaurant gets crowded very quickly on the weekends, we arrived right after 11AM just to make sure we could get a table without long wait. Inside, the restaurant is bright, clean and quite spacious with seating for 100+ people. The overall décor is a blend of modern fixtures with classic elements such as wall of antique ceramic bowls. The waitress got us seated and brought the menu and water right away. She also brought their delicious complementary Banchan which is a set of small side dishes with items such as kimchi, bean sprouts and pickles. You can request refills if you run out of any of the items. We ordered the following dishes: Bibimbap: Very nice mixture of fresh vegetables, egg, meat and rice. The delicious sauce brought the flavor out of the ingredients. Seafood Tofu: The pot looked messy because the broth was boiling hot and it spilled the tofu bits over the edge. On the plus side it helped to cook the complementary raw egg. The tofu was firm but tender, and the broth was very flavorful. The brown rice paired well with the tofu and broth. Hand Cut Noodle with Seafood Soup: The broth was clear and very flavorful. The noodles were perfectly cooked with nice texture. The seafood combo was the traditional one with mixture of shrimps, clams, squid, mussels and crab. The prices were reasonable and service was attentive. The restaurant is definitely a great choice for those who fancy traditional Korean food. read more

The veggies were so fresh & I loved how the provided a large variety of veggies. 3. Kimchi fried rice with pork - very flavorful 4. Galbi - quiet tender 5. Seafood pancake - one of the best we've had as it's crispy on the bottom, not too much seafood & it wasn't overly greasy. read more

The food is good enough that I've kept coming back, even when the service has made me question my own judgment. Jang Su Jang can absolutely cook. When the kitchen is on, the food has the depth and comfort you want from a proper Korean meal. The soups are satisfying, the proteins usually hit and there's enough here to remind you why the place has stayed busy. But the experience is uneven. Some servers are great. Others act like your existence is an administrative burden. The banchan is also hit or miss and honestly, weaker than it should be for a place like this. I also had a bad experience with a squid dish once that left me feeling seriously unwell afterward. That should have been enough to keep me away, but the food still pulled me back, which says something. This is not a perfect restaurant. It can be inconsistent, the hospitality can be rough and the details could use more care. But when the food lands, it lands. That's the annoying part. read more

Fun and fully automated with computer screen ordering. Food was prepared quickly. The bon chon arrived right away. We enjoyed the crispy vegetable pancake. This was delicious without being too greasy. The jhap chae was flavorful. We ordered 2 doisot, one chicken and one pork. They were out of brown rice that evening. The pile of beef galbi was generous and was fork tender. Our final dish was the very generous pile spicy pork bulgogi. As usual we ordered too much food, but everything was wonderful. read more

It has been a few months since I visited Jang Su Jang. It is a great representation of Korean cuisine beyond BBQ (think Baekjeong) and fried chicken (bb.q Chicken). Jang Su Jang offers dishes such as bibimbap (warm rice topped with meat and vegetables), soon tofu (tofu stew), mandoo (dumplings) and guksoo (noodles). Food: I am a huge fan of their bossam (steamed pork slices served with various wraps and toppings) and "wang" mandoo (large dumplings filled with beef, pork, and kimchi), both of which are soooo very good. I also like their eundaegu jorim (braised cod and daikon radishes served in a large earthenware pot, called a ttukbaegi). Finally, I've also enjoyed their dumpling and noodle soups, as well as the haemul pajeon (a seafood and vegetable pancake). I would consider all of these dishes to be Korean comfort food. They also offer a few BBQ dishes (boneless ribs), which they cook on a grill similar to a Japanese habachi), but I would pass on these as the meat just doesn't grill as nicely as at your typical Korean BBQ places. Service: The service is friendly, but can be get a little slow when they are busy. It helps if you speak Korean too. Bottom Line: Jang Su Jang is a very good Korean restaurant that offers something different than your typical BBQ or fried chicken. Definitely worth trying. read more
