    Rigatoni Alla Kimchi Vodka
    Brittany M.

    I loved eating at Jilli! I made a reservation for 3 at 5:30 so we could have dinner before a show at the Wiltern. It was the perfect spot and walking distance from the venue! The restaurant was actually having live music that night but unfortunately it started at the same time as our show. One of the employees let us know they have live music twice a month on Thursdays. The food here is so good! We started with the Wagyu tartare, which was actually our least favorite dish but it was still good. It has more of a seaweed taste and just wasn't what we were expecting. The rest are must orders! The shrimp toast, pork jeyuk, and rigatoni alla kimchi vodka were all amazing! We finished everything and left extremely satisfied. Definitely want to go back!

    Came here the other night with friends for dinner. Italian and Korean fusion, sounded delicious in my head, what could go wrong? Had a reservation so we were seated right away. Cool vibe and chill atmosphere with hip hop playing overhead, from the Wu Tang Clan and Gang Starr to Nas and Busta Rhymes, definitely got that 90s-2000s era of hip hop, so it's definitely a while vibe. Started with cocktails and the Makgeolli flight. The flight was interesting, changing in flavors depending on which you drank, going from a sweeter flavor to a stronger overall flavor. Your Ex's Favorite cocktail was really tasty, nice grape flavor with grape soju, lime juice and club soda. Probably the favorite drink of the night. For food, we started with the shrimp toast, which were really delicious little bites of shrimp and aioli. The pork jowl jeyuk was also cooked well, with little lettuce wraps to make these crunchy bites posted with the sauce. The uni teokboki was delicious, a nice fusion of Italian and Korean, and the sauce you key going back for. Finally was the rigatoni Alla kimchi vodka pasta, which was probably everyone's favorite dish overall. Just so much going on but it all world together so well. Honestly, everything at Jilli was amazing, from the vibe, the music, the service and definitely the food. Take the time, put Jilli on your list of must try restaurants and head to K-town.

    Galbi frites
    Elisa P.

    I ate at this spot with a friend on a Tuesday night and easily made reservations on the same day. There was street parking out front and we got seated before our reservation time (it wasn't too busy). The restaurant is dark with projections of old cartoons onto the walls. Seating is limited so reservations are recommended unless you are okay with sitting at the bar! We decided to try the dine LA menu and ordered the honey butter chips, meat jeon, shrimp toast, galbi frites, kimchi rigatoni, and a grape cocktail which was very good! The food was overall pretty salty and flavorful so it got a bit tiring after a while. I would come back just for small bites and soju cocktails. It was a fun experience and worth trying at least once!

    My sister and I came were going to a concert at the Wiltern and wanted to get dinner close by beforehand. Neither of us had eaten here before, but we were intrigued by the DineLA menu and decided to give it a try. I'm glad I took the metro here, because parking is a bit of a nightmare. My sister drove over and ended up spending nearly half an hour trying to find street parking before settling on a paid lot. The restaurant is pretty small and gets packed throughout the evening, so I'd recommend making a reservation in advance. We both ordered different items from the DineLA menu and shared all the plates: honey butter chips, tuna dip with crackers, meat jeon, fried chicken, galbi with fries (additional surcharge), and a few cocktails. Overall, we enjoyed trying all the different dishes and flavors and finished just about everything. My favorites were the meat jeon and galbi with fries; I thought the galbi was cooked and marinated perfectly, and I had a difficult time refraining from munching on the crispy and well-seasoned fries. The galbi and jeon were both a tad bit on the salty side, but I still found them to be tasty and comforting dishes. I really appreciated the kind and efficient service throughout the evening. I got to the restaurant a bit early but was seated almost immediately, and our server checked in with us multiple times throughout the evening to make sure we had everything we needed. We enjoyed our dining experience here and thought the DineLA menu offered great value for the meal inclusions and price point. I'd recommend it if you're looking for a quick pre-concert dinner, or if you're just looking to catch up with friends over shared plates.

    Shared plates with friends and everything hit. The chicken and fries were FANTASTIC. Crispy, flavorful, and impossible to stop eating. I was doing Dry January, so I skipped the drinks, but my friend said they were delicious. Fun, laid-back spot that's perfect for hanging out with friends. Bonus points for the OG anime playing on the wall. The place is small, so prepare for a wait if there is a bigger group, or give them a call.

    Rigatoni Alla Kimchi Vodka
    Shirley B.

    Food: The Rigatoni alla Kimchi Vodka was the star of the night, creamy and rich with a mild spicy kick from the kimchi that made the dish feel bold yet comforting. The Wagyu Yukhoe was decent and refreshing, with fresh flavors that felt clean and satisfying. The Perilla Oil Noodle was okay, with a subtle herby note, but it wasn't my personal favorite. The Meat Jeon was simple and cozy, though it didn't feel authentically Korean. Overall, the menu offers creative Korean-fusion dishes that are fun to try. Price: Expect to spend about $30-$50 per person depending on drinks. The Rigatoni runs around $21-$25, Wagyu Yukhoe about $25-$28, and the other dishes like Perilla Oil Noodle and Meat Jeon are roughly $16 each. See my menu photo for details. For the quality and creativity, the pricing feels fair for a Koreatown late-night spot. Ambiance: The vibe is dark and moody, perfect for late-night food and drinks with your bae, a partner, or a girls' night out. The space is small and slightly cramped, which adds to the intimate feel but can get tight during peak hours. It's definitely a spot for those who enjoy cozy corners and a lively, bar-like atmosphere. Service: Service was excellent. Our server was friendly, attentive, and even surprised us with free shots, then joined us for a toast with sweet, delicious house-made shots. That personal touch made the experience extra fun and memorable. Parking: Parking is the usual Koreatown challenge. Street parking is your best bet, so plan ahead and give yourself time to circle the block. There's no dedicated lot, so patience is key.

    We recently checked out Jilli and it completely exceeded our expectations. We originally went because we were intrigued by the rigatoni alla kimchi vodka and wow that dish absolutely blew us away. Such a unique combination, and it worked perfectly. Honestly everything we tried was spectacular. The service was just as impressive. We sat at the bar, and both the servers and bartenders were incredibly attentive and friendly. We'll definitely be back highly recommend checking this spot out!

    Uni Tteokboki
    Jorena L.

    Awesome new-ish addition to Ktown. The vibes are super cool inside. Great cocktail menu. Service is a little slow, probably because it's very busy. Started with the trout dip which was fresh and creamy. Comes with two different types of crackers. Nothing mind blowing but it was good. The shrimp toast was excellent. Extremely crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I liked the kimchi rigatoni. Great balance of sour kimchi and spicy vodka sauce. The uni tteokboki was not my fave. The sauce was a little too pungent and stinky for my taste. The bartender brought us shots at the end of our meal which was a fun surprise.

    Uni Tteokboki
    Natalia J.

    Came to celebrate my friend's 21st here! They have very small plates to share, emphasis on small and emphasis on expensive. No designated parking lot so you're left to the whims of Koreatown street parking (good luck). We got the makgeolli flight for $40 which came with four little glasses; we thought we would get more considering the price. I think it should've been more like $16 or $22 maximum to account for LA inflation. Uni tteokbokki was good but expensive and didn't have any full pieces of uni. We were served a completely warm Terra in a chilled glass and while the server was really nice and apologetic about it, I honestly would've rather not drank it.

    Jilli is such a fun spot for delicious, innovative bites and drinks. The employees were super friendly and efficient, chatting with us and kindly giving us shots. It's a smaller space and was full when I visited on a Friday night. I would recommend making a reservation beforehand. The restaurant was full of energy, with groups of friends laughing and having a great time! What a variety of fun tapas to choose from! I really enjoyed the creamy uni tteokbokki and the flavorful rigatoni alla kimchi vodka. All of the dishes had so much flavor and were cooked to perfection. I really liked how Jilli took a classic dish and put their own spin on it. The drinks we ordered were fruity and refreshing. This was the perfect spot for a lively Friday night!

    My friends and I came here for a birthday dinner (reservation for 4), and the experience was pretty disappointing from the start. When we arrived, the restaurant was completely empty, yet we were seated at a table with only three chairs. They brought out a folding chair for the fourth seat, which felt odd since there were plenty of nicer chairs around and we had a reservation (you would think they would have been prepared?) As we looked through the menu, we decided on two cocktails and five entrees. When the waitress came, we ordered our drinks first -- only to be told one wasn't available. Fine, we picked another. Then we ordered our five dishes, but within a few minutes she came back three separate times to tell us that the jjajang fries, yukhoe, and uni tteokbokki were all unavailable. At that point, three out of the five dishes we wanted couldn't even be ordered, and this was around 6:30 PM... not late at night. We ended up only eating two dishes since most of what we came for wasn't available, and we left still hungry. Overall, it just felt poorly managed and disappointing, especially for a restaurant that was empty when we arrived

    Rigatoni Alla Kimchi Vodka w burrata $25. Pricey but worth a try - has a kick and v al dente pasta
    Hannah L.

    good spot for tapas style food and drinks! def fits the modern pub vibe that they're going for (dark, loud music). On a Wednesday around 5:30pm, it was empty. - Meat Jeon $16: thinly sliced beef in a fluffy egg pancake. pretty yummy but the tart chili vinaigrette was a little offputting for me. prob wouldn't get again for me - Honey Butter Chips: mgr hooked it up with this - generous amount of chips with a honey butter drizzle on top. perfect to go along with the drinks. - Rigatoni Alla Kimchi Vodka $21 (+Burrata $4): perfectly al dente pasta with lots of sauce. sour-y aftertaste because of the kimchi. spicy even with the burrata! acquired taste but I would get this again - Pay Raise $16: injeolmi makgeolli!! unique, nutty with the rice powder, and yummy. would get again - Kace Study $16: peachy soju, slightly sweeter than I would've liked. prob wouldn't get again. Depending on the vibe you're going for, i'd recommend! Service was fast and friendly too.

    Swung by on a hot 90+ degree weather for a popup collab event. Parking was very challenging and we had trouble finding anything available until parked some 3 blocks away. Signage is dark and unclear. No acknowledgement upon entering the restaurant. Very very hot inside as no air conditioning too. Circulation was nonexistent and the air felt dense and murky. I have no idea how people don't sweat eating or lounging in a small area like that! We waited to be seated but got ignored and never got to place the order or anything. Left after 10 minutes of waiting along with another confused groups of people. Overall a giant waste of time and I don't expect revisiting.

In the same vein, we stuck with a similar style of food and ended up at Propaganda. There was little to no wait, which was pleasant. It was a nice day and we decided to eat outside. The focaccia bread and salad came out first, and both were good. I enjoyed the crispiness of the bread, though my only qualms were that the bread was quite oily and the butter and salt were just a tad bit too salty for my liking. The Insalata Mista salad was solid. Good flavor, good dressing-to-salad ratio, and a surprisingly good portion size. As far as pizza goes, the Margherita was good. Tasty, moist, and a nice crunch on the crust. I found it to be enjoyable, though I may have enjoyed more fresh basil on this. I did find it better than the Boscaiola. I got the black truffle honey add on, and it does not go well on this pizza in my opinion. There was virtually no taste of truffle to me, and more of just an aftertaste of oily sweet honey. This was a miss. It's hard to say whether the base pizza was good without it because the flavor profile was just too overpowered by the aftertaste. The Arts District is definitely coming up with new upscale dining establishments, and I'm there for it. I think this is a solid addition. Though this is a wine bar, I don't generally drink, so my review is based purely on the food. Results of their drinks, which is quite an extensive list, may be to your liking! They do have an inexpensive three wine flight, for reference!

Take a dip of the Hot Soft Pretzel, dive into the Pepita Dip (roasted pumpkin seeds), Kale Caesar Salad (large or small - vegan option available), the pickle plate, marinated olives, chili lime almonds and some many great choices to please your palate, "Play you however many times I want, yeah I'll play you like a slow song..." "I'll keep you spinning..." like the choice music, first come first serve seating inside, back patio or front patio overlooking the boulevard. With white, red, pink (rosé), orange, bubbles (sparkling), rice (wine aka sake), and spritz/aperitivos for by the glass options. Draft craft brews domestic + imports, not to mention canned or bottled options for an awesome range of lagers, ales, cider, stout, ipas, pilsners and then some. You're fully covered for a variety of beverage needs including some top choice non-alcoholic drinks like their Zero Riesling, Kally Berry Fennel, Pilsner and super Ghia Spritz. You'll feel welcome every time you step in, good wi-fi, clean and easy restroom access for customers. As Tabula Rasa would say, "When you're here, you're family." Very much open to all, live music on occasion, incredible DJs on Thursdays (my favorite night). It's a short stroll from the Redline Station at Hollywood/Western, very walkable, bike friendly, local street parking (see restrictions) and/or a convenient rideshare away. And how ever you venture to TRB, know it's always worth it and a cool place to be. Check out their Thai Town Bar Monthly Wine Club! And inquiry about hosting an event - birthday, college graduation and various occasion friendly.

    We had the most incredible experience from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, the service…read moreduring our wine tasting and dinner was truly impeccable--attentive, knowledgeable, and perfectly timed without ever feeling intrusive. You can tell this team takes pride in what they do. The wine tasting was beautifully curated, and the staff did such a great job walking us through each pour, sharing helpful details, and making the whole experience feel relaxed but still elevated. Every question we had was answered with ease, and the pacing was spot-on. Dinner was just as impressive. Our table shared the chicken, steak, and salmon, and every single dish was outstanding. The chicken was flavorful and perfectly cooked, the steak was tender and rich, and the salmon was beautifully prepared--fresh, delicate, and full of flavor. Sharing everything family-style made it even better because we got to try a little of everything, and honestly, there wasn't a single miss. What really stood out, though, was the hospitality. We felt genuinely taken care of the entire evening, and it made the night feel special. This is the kind of service and dining experience that makes you want to come back immediately--and bring friends. Highly recommend for a wine tasting, date night, or special occasion. We'll absolutely be back.

We ordered the duck cassoulet, pear and Gorgonzola salad and a very tasty salmon entree. They swap out wines periodically. We were treated to some top quality full bodied reds (Syrah, Cabernet) and our server knew his stuff to guide us with our picks. Make the trek out to Palos Verdes and you won't be disappointed. We'll be back for sure.

    Last Christmas I received a gift card for this spot from family and we finally used it. What a…read moregreat date night spot! Loved the vibes inside, we sat at the bar and had great attentive service throughout. We got a bottle of wine, chicken liver mousse toast, steak frites and crème caramel for dessert. All were delicious! The chicken liver mousse is a very healthy portion inside the bread & very rich. Glad we skipped on another side/plate or it would have been too much food. The steak frites were fantastic - the perfect cut of meat and cooked to perfection. One of the best steak frites I've had in the city!

    Wasn't expecting to find a spot like this on this side of Koreatown, so I had to give it a shot…read more Quick heads up: parking's a hassle, so come in early to secure a spot. They've got indoor and outdoor seating. My party ended up getting seated right away. Our server was super friendly and walked us through the menu. Food came out fast and was paced perfectly. The Caesar beef tartare caught me off guard in the best way: great flavors with a nice hint of acidity. The steak frites was solid too, though the steak-to-fries ratio was off and the aioli came out a bit cold. The vibe is great with tons of natural light, but the tables are crammed way too close together, so it's tough to hear your own party's conversation when others are having conversations near by. A little more breathing room would go a long way. Still, glad I checked it out.
