Soooo yummy and love the cozy no frills vibes in here! The aunties were so nice and gave all of the tables some tteokbokki for free. The soup was rich and not salted -- which is a hallmark of homemade broth so you know it's not made from a store bought packet! This was the perfect nourishing meal on a cold day. read more

Small Korean owned shop. Came to try the Samgyetang soup since I was feeling under the weather and it didn't disappoint. There was ginger and garlic stuffed inside the chicken, and the chicken came right off the bone and broth was light. The service was good and they offered good variety banchans (kimchi, radish, black beans, japchae, zucchini). read more

I always come here for their sul lung tang. But just recently, I noticed that they also have the Spicy Black Goat cassarole/stew. and I AM IN LOVE! This is now my GO TO for the black goat stew. great dipping sauce too. Their banchan selection has always been good. read more

Great selection of food and service! One of our favorite Korean restaurants to take the entire family!

I Love supporting "mom and pop" shops. I've had ox tail soup from LA (H..) and places in the Southbay (W..) This place is true to the traditional way of Korean ox tail soup. Please come support read more

Jun Ju Sul Lung Tang - Korean Near Me - Gardena, California

A decent spot for sullungtang as the broth was a bit thin and not as milky as our favorite places, perhaps a result of less bone extraction during preparation. We also tried the lunch chicken teriyaki 'bento' and while I appreciated the variety of dishes, I wish there was more protein served. Not a bad place by any means, but nothing memorable enough to return as we've had better execution at other Korean restaurants in the area. read more

We ate here on a Saturday morning. There was only one waitress. She was very quick and our food came out just as quick. We got the kimchi jjage and it was spicy and flavorful! We probably shouldn't have ordered the pot since it was just my fiancé and I but we enjoyed it and the left overs! Sides were great I enjoyed the cabbage omelette one. read more

Jun Ju Sul Lung Tang - Korean Near Me - Gardena, California

I usually do dine in but since my little one is sick and we had to order take out. They charged 3 dollars for take out boxes. The normal price for seafood pancake I believe it's around 25? Which it was also stated on the menu but when it is for take out it's $27!... or $29! I guess u won't be goin back anytime soon since there are a ot of choices for sulungtong in the southbay area. read more

One of our go-to for Korean comfort dishes! Even with all the new Korean restaurants opening in the area, Jun Ju is still one we go quite often. This spot is known for their soups with a pretty big menu. Can't really compare this spot to places that specialize in one dish only but it's solid all around! Of course, seolleontang is probably the most popular. The galbi tang and gamja tang is also a few of our favorites. They have other soups that's more rarely seen in other Korean restaurants around the area like cow knee and even black goat. There's also some of your classic BBQ dishes like LA galbi and bulgolgi. Whatever we get, we also like to add the stir fry pork belly kimchi. It's a huge plate and we like to take it home and then making our own fried rice from the leftovers. Parking can be a mess at times but there's street parking available. read more

Great little hole in the wall with delicious food! I was trying to beat this heatwave, so I ordered the cold buckwheat noodles. It came with an extra bowl of icy cold broth and vinegar and mustard to adjust to your liking. It was delicious and refreshing. My husband ordered the tofu, pork belly, and kim chi dish. It's one of my favorite Korean dishes and it was even better the next day! But don't leftovers hit differently? Their ban chans were also very good! Ive never gotten boiled eggs with whole garlic or eggplant as a side before. I can't wait to return! read more

Picked up food to go. Tried this place for the first time because our normal go-to was closed. When I opened the packaging, I could already smell that the sullungtang was not normal. It had kind of a sweet smell to it, that is a normal. Tasted funky. Won't be going back. read more

A nice restaurant for Korean comfort food. The bibimbap was good. It feels less Americanized than most restaurants, which was a good thing. We were a bit sad that the samgye tang didn't have ginseng in it. I think it might be in the broth when they cook it but we usually get the real ginseng our dish too when ordering this. Overall, the taste was good. read more

I was looking for a place to have Korean soup and bossam. There were many places to choose from, however, based on the menu and reviews, I selected this place. It truly is a hole in the wall, nothing fancy, seems like family operates. Most things on walls are handwritten instead of printed. We ordered Yukgeajang (spicy beef soup) and Dwaegi Bossam (Sliced Pork Belly with vegetables to wrap them with). Food was really tasty. The ban chan (side dishes) were simple and fresh. Service was good. They sent us a complimentary appetizer. We couldn't finish the food ... there is a charge for to go containers. I enjoyed our meal and was glad that I picked this simple restaurant. read more

A bit disappointed since this place had great reviews. There was almost no one on a Friday night, which surprised me given its reviews. It's nestled in a plaza that was packed full of cars, but for the other places I guess. I ordered the seollongtang, which was not bad but also not good. Especially given that it's in the name. It was a thin broth that didn't have much flavor even when salt was added. The banchan was good and it's always nice when they bring you a giant pot of freshly cut green onion to add into the soup. If you want to take your leftovers to go, you have to pay $.50 for a small container and $1 for a large container. read more

What a gem I found in the city of Gardena. Mom and pop shop that serves the best Korean soups. They simmer their broth for hours and hours and you can definitely taste the deliciousness. Their meat dishes are also very good, the la galbi was so flavorful and I enjoyed making wraps with the pork! Service is A1 and there a lot with plenty of parking. Will definitely be returning. read more

This resto is in a busy strip mall competing for limited parking slots with a KBBQ place, a sushi place, a boba place plus other establishments. We last visited this place years ago and was underwhelmed. Mind you, we can't remember if it's the same place or not. The second visit proved to be favorable. We ordered: Galbitang Sullungtang Mung bean pancake We definitely order all three again! We ate here on a Wednesday after work. They may have just cleaned as the scent of antiseptic wafted through the air. There were only a few other patrons that night. Service was quick and efficient. This is an option if the line at the other places are too long! Enjoy! read more

Omg! Authentic sul lung tang (traditional korean bone broth soup) is deliciously amazing at Jun Ju. Soup is served pipping hot, broth is rich flavored & served with salt, green onions & black pepper on the side. Speaking of side, their side dishes are exquisite & authentic. You'll enjoy the unlimited fresh ban-chan (side dishes). We also ordered korean seafood pancake- served crunchy with loaded seafood. Absolutely heavenly. Service staffs are friendly & well attentive. Place is clean & seating is limited. You'll see tons of elderly Koreans as delightful customers who are enjoying their meal. Parking is plenty in the front lot. Hope you get to dine at Jun Ju and experience authentic korean cuisine. Bon appetite! read more

Was feeling under the weather and some chicken soup sounded amazing. There weren't many options to choose from but this place seemed decent so stopped by on a weekday night. Parking: The lot is shared with a couple of other businesses so, during peak times, it can be difficult to find a spot. There is residential parking nearby within a couple of minutes of walking. Service: welcoming and nice, even if you're not Korean which is always a bonus. There were just 2 older ladies managing the register and other tables so please be respectful and understanding if they don't get to you right away. Food: Ordered the chicken soup and I have to say, the takeout containers they use are simply amazing. Drove home and with a couple of sudden stops where the bag actually flew and flipped over, I thought my dinner was done for but the box actually held everything together! Everything was held together perfectly even though I wasn't haha. There was actually a surprising amount of banchan included and altogether, it could be split into 2/3 meals. The soup was very comforting and cooked well. will definitely order this again next time. In this area, there are a couple of other options to compete with this place but just for the quality of everything alone, I would come back as a solid choice whether I'm under the weather or not. read more

We often overlook this place because of all of the other shops in the plaza but we decided to come here for a quick dinner. The servers are nice and friendly but I don't know if it's because we came closer to closing but it's like they forgot about us. We had to ask for water, napkins and other things. I got the sul lung tang and I thought it was ok. It's a hearty soup which will definitely warm you up on a chilly night. I thought the noodles were a little on the soft side but the banchan selection was good. Maybe I'll have to come back another time and check out other things on the menu. read more

Jun Ju Sul Lung Tang - Dwaegi Bossam - Korean Near Me - Gardena, California

Every time the weather gets gloomy, I always crave a nice hot bowl of soup. My father and I often come here for one thing and one thing only- their dogani tang, also known as the cow knee soup. I love it because the broth is hearty and the soup comes with lots of tendon and tender meat. The service is always quick, and the employees are attentive. I have been coming here for a couple of years now and the quality has always stayed the same. I also really enjoy the kimchi here the most because it's aged perfectly to compliment the soup. When you walk into the restaurant, it feels like you're being transported into a Korean grandma's house - it has such a homey feel to it. Parking can be a little tough on a weekend but there is also street parking available. They also accept card and cash! read more

i rediscovered this wonderful, authentic, Korean Restaurant since coming back to California. My wife and I went there on a Thursday evening and the place was about half full. We ordered our food, she picked the goatmeat stew, a bit skeptical at first, not anything the restaurant had done, she's just a super good cook and is really picky about food when we eat out. She's Korean, and knows how authentic back home cooking should taste. They brought out the sides, banchan, and she was not disappointed. First good sign. Then the food came out, hers in the boiling stone bowl, hotter'n you know what, the way she likes it, and then the first taste............and I saw it, that look of satisfaction. She tried several more bites and was sold on it. 'This is real Korean food' was her remark. I was relieved, needless to say. We have a very small list of places we go, because of Miss Picky. Don't get me wrong, it's right for a person to expect good food for their money, but it's great when we find a place that meets her expectations. We actually went back Sunday for lunch. Same great food, different choice, same great service and reception. Very nice people who are happy to see a familiar face. I can put this eatery on our list, and glad for it! I recommend this quaint little establishment to anyone who's looking for authentic Sul Lang Tang, and friendly people to dish it up for you. 5 Stars is all they'll let me give, but it's a solid 5 Stars. read more

This small but mighty restaurant is a gem! The service is amazing (& fast) and the food is AMAZING. I had the samgyetang and it was so delicious! I'm just sorry that I live so far away as I would be there every week if I lived closer. Please try this place, you won't regret it!!! read more

Food is good. Just make sure that when you pay with a credit card, double check the charges before leaving. Its such a hassle to deal. I was charged several times for the same transaction. I went back the next day. The owner assured that it will be settled after a week. It happened in January. Well, months went by and nothing happened. Few phone calls and still none. The experience left a bad taste in my mouth. read more

This place is pretty good, and I like that they open pretty early on the weekends. I got a haejanggook (semi spicy soup with cabbage) and the hubby got a galbi tang (beef rib soup). We got it to go, they have about 3 tables outside but this is the type of food that's still good if you take it to go. I think I liked my haejanggook more than the hubby liked his food - the ribs come separately so they have more room for the soup but he just didn't like it as much. Their prices have definitely gone up in the last few years, so take a look at their most recent menu for prices. read more

It's not quite as impeccable as Han Bat Sul Lung Tang, but if you live in the South Bay this definitely hits the spot. Broth is very very hearty and the ban Chan was really tasty too.

Probably the best sulungtang place in South Bay. We loved JinKook Sulungtang but it closed down couple of years ago. This is the best place we found since~ The only negative is that their radish kimchi is inconsistent in taste.. one day it's sour, one day it's sweet.. Other than that, great service and love the soups~ read more

Was looking for some soup in the early morning and found this gem again! I had ordered here once during peak quarantine when they were only doing take-out so I'm glad we got to dine in! FOOD: - hae jang gook +4.5/5 Known as the Korean "hangover soup," this soup delivered: it was hearty, steaming hot (served in a stone pot so that the soup stays hot throughout your meal,) and exactly what we needed. There were plenty of vegetables & meat in the soup also. While I couldn't finish my portion, because I got too full, my boyfriend gladly finished his and ate literally until the last drop of soup was gone. - side dishes/banchan +3.5/5 I personally think the banchan could have been a bit better. The kimchi was overripe and sour and some others were just average. SERVICE: - is fast! There was only server and around 7 groups walked in and were seated after us within 30 minutes. Yet, our waiter worked quickly and got all our food/banchan/check/waters on a timely manner. Overall, I'm so happy to have solidified a Korean soup spot and will be coming back to try the rest of their menu! read more

My initial experiences with Korean cuisine was rocky. Not only did I not speak the language, I tried it without someone to guide me as to how to eat certain foods or what to order that more matched my taste preferences. Over time, that's changed and Korean food is one of my favorite foods; I just don't have it all the time. Skip forward to last week. I ended up here with a fellow Yelper (Niki S) after watching a movie (Joker) at a nearby theater. Parking can be challenging. We both were able to find parking however, the lot was pretty filled and available street parking looked to be scarce as well. Upside is that it's free - not metered. On each visit (twice), service has been great. Attentive and nice. Not complacent or rude. Refills not really needed as a pitcher of Barley Tea is left for the table. Banchan is regularly replenished, upon request. As for the food - Good size portions served hot, fresh and quick. There's a homemade feel for me which gave me a warm feeling each time I've eaten here. I've not been to Korea to feel comfortable stating whether it's authentic or not - however, on my first visit here, I dined with another fellow Yelper (Soy Y), who is Korean, and I trust her take. As for me, I'm a fan! read more
