I was really excited to try this place, as I haven't been anywhere that specialized in only yubu chobop! We ordered a good selection of yubus, including the Spicy BBQ Pork Yubu, Grilled Bulgogi Yubu, Mala Mayo Karaage Yubu, Onion Mayo Karaage Yubu, Queen Mermaid Yubu, and more. My favorites were the Spicy BBQ Pork Yubu and the Mala Mayo Karaage Yubu, but all were solid. The yubus were a pretty good portion size, but a tad pricey. The yubus took a little while to come out, even though there weren't a ton of people waiting for food. I think I would come here again! read more

Kingyubu is such a great option at Madang Plaza! I have been to the other location many times and this newer outpost a few times now, as well. Staff is always so friendly, ordering is easy, prices are good and the food is always delicious! They have such a big menu, there is always something for everyone. Cupbops are solid and all under $10. Yubus are $5-7 with delicious fillings like bulgogi, salmon & cream cheese, unagi, bbq pork - they have 21 different types! That's madness in in a tasty fried tofu pocket. Hand Rolls are $8-9. Portions are big and everything is just so tasty! Kingyubu is an excellent option when at Madang Plaza! It's on the first floor right next to the courtyard with plenty of seating. Plus, they played BTS the entire time I was there yesterday - Many bonus points for being Army!!!!!! read more

Hidden in one of the shopping plaza across from the Wiltern, this was a great place for a snack with friends before our concert. The plaza was under construction, but the seating is covered and walled off to give a more cozy ambiance. Also the logo was really cute. Service was friendly, yet there only seemed to be one person on staff. The yubus, however, were so good! I honestly want to go back and try them all! I really liked the unagi yubu and spam yubu. It's a Buy 5, get the 6th free special which was perfect for our friend group of 4. read more

This is my favorite restaurant in ktown and possibly in LA for its great value and diverse choices that never disappoint. This mashup with kingfries and kingyubu is amazing. I love the king fries with bulgogi and their sauces are amazing. My favorite yubus are the spicy pork, lemon salmon and torched salmon in that order. The spicy pork is the best yubu I had and it makes me not want to order yubus at any other place since I know it won't be as good. The Korean corndog is also really good, especially because you can eat it with the great variety of sauces they have. I highly recommend their lemon mayo. The spicy mayo and mala sauce are also quite good. The popcorn chicken was surprisingly really good. We got the honey butter powder and it was so delicious, especially when paired with the lemon sauce. It's crispy and tender and really flavorful. The location is also really nice. Right next to the H-Mart and it is outdoors and really enjoyable. So much better than their other location in terms of the seating options and how full it gets :) read more

My friend showed me this place and although the portions look small, they are really filling and hearty. Theres some options I wish they had like a fresh tuna (they only offer spicy tuna)/fresh salmon (without the lemon) option which I feel like would be a hit. The lunch deal is also nice, you get three options and a drink for $18. We tried the fries as well and it was decent! I think overall personally they use too much sauce but you can request for easy or none on that by just letting them know after ordering. There is cute seating nearby and just a fun hangout spot to grab a quick bite. read more

So happy Kingyubu opened a second location in Koreatown! The yubu here is always fresh and flavorful -- I love the Mala Mayo Karaage, Grilled Bulgogi, Spicy Salmon, Queen Mermaid, and King Yubu. Their cheesy Korean corn dog and Mala Rose Tteokbokki are also a must-try! Great food, friendly staff, and such a cute spot. Plus there's free parking with validation!!! read more

I love this place. Everything tastes good and is reasonably priced. I feel like it's my own little slice of Aloha in K-town. The salmon, unagi, and chicken are our favorites. I drive all the way from SFV to K-town just for this, and it never disappoints. The service is good and the open seating area allows you to enjoy the food while people-watching. Keep it fresh, Kingyubu - and if you can open a store in Northridge/Granada Hills, I would be so grateful. Cheers! read more

Been a few days since I tried KingYubu in Koreatown and I've been thinking about it since. The rice is super flavorful and it's perfectly cooked. I love all the toppings as well. They have two locations and the one I went to was a small little stand. Would definitely come back! read more

Amazing service and filling portions. Yubu Kimbap was a stable in my childhood, so I'm glad to see modernized takes on the dish. I love the diversity in flavors (the menu ranges from fresh fish, chicken, kbbq pork, spicy, savory, etc.). At first I thought 3 yubus would not be enough, but they were quite filling. I got the spicy bbq pork, mala karrage, and spicy tuna. I thought the bbq pork had the best flavor. The tuna was not the best quality (it didn't taste fresh), so it was hard to finish. I appreciate how they packed it with fish tho. The rice and topping ratio is pretty even. My friends and I were given two free korean hot dogs on the house because of a mistake. I thought the gesture was very sweet! read more

super tasty and friendly and yummy. we got here right before closing but never felt rushed. parking is easy. i'll be back!

we stopped by kingyubu for a snack before heading back to UCLA! the salmon yubu was soft and buttery, while having that tofu taste at the end. the spicy tuna was classic korean- spice, a bit more spicy than japanese spicy tuna. still very enjoyable and a great bite to eat. ordered on a tablet, but the service was still kind and quick. read more

Kingyubu - King Cupbop and sausage corn dog with mala mayo - Sushi Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came in really excited to try this spot but it ended up being pretty mid. The pics and videos make it look like the tofu pockets are packed with fish, but it's really just a thin layer on top and mostly rice underneath. Flavor-wise, everything leaned really sweet. We tried a bunch of items including lemon salmon, spicy salmon, spicy crabmeat, original topokki, bulgogi yubu, bulgogi fries, and salmon avocado hand roll. The hand roll was actually our favorite since it cut through all the heavy, sweet sauces. Even the jalapeño salmon tasted more sweet than spicy. Cool concept overall. Service was pretty fast and the cashier was nice and helpful. Prices are moderate. Food was really just ok. Some seating outside at this location; no indoor seating available. read more

Amazing food, super casual vibes. Lots Of options for eating and there are options for picky eaters. Outdoor, nice for groups. read more

Always been a huge fan of yubuchbop growing up this new craze is a welcomed addition to our world of food!! Kingyubu does this very well and with so many yummy tasty toppings....This is definitely a must try at least once but dare you to try and stop after four!!! I really enjoyed the beef belly kimchi with spam and spicy salmon!! But truth be told I don't think any of the combos would be bad? Second location is new to the Madang plaza floor level next tones escalator and enjoy lunch combo for only $16.99 includes drink and three yubus!! read more

I can't believe they just opened up a 2nd location. LFG!!!!! I absolutely LOVE this spot! In some ways, it's nostalgic to have Yubu since my mom used to make them for me as a kid, but KingYubu has completely elevated that experience to a whole new level. Not only is it made with the traditional tofu skin with rice in it, they also add meat, veggies and/or sashimi on top. There are also so many options to choose from, you can never get sick of it. ON TOP OF THAT, they also have tteokbokki, cup bop and more and I have yet to dislike any of their offerings. They're also using Toast, which makes the ordering process super easy, and I also order ahead to pick up if I know they'll be busy during lunch or dinner. If you haven't been here yet, I HIGHLY recommend you try this spot! You can never go wrong! read more

So happy they opened up a new location! I was a fan of the original spot but this one is a lot easier for me to get to, a prime spot in the madang plaza. Food quality is just as good as the og spot, the fish tastes clean and fresh. Was in the mood for salmon and they have plenty of options. I had the lemon salmon yubu, the spicy salmon yubu, and the torched salmon yubu. All 3 were delicious but my fav was the torched salmon which had a nice smoky flavor. Three yubus were enough for a satisfying meal. It's easy to order on the kiosk and they have gloves so you don't get messy eating too! It was nice and quiet on a Thursday around 1PM, very peaceful. Order was ready pretty fast! Definitely a spot to come back to. read more

Literally best thing I've ever eaten for real. They have a great buy 5 get one free deal. Sooooooo yummy. Just careful because they are a HARD CLOSE the minute it says, and you have to leave, not like a restaurant you can stay and eat as long as you've ordered already. They stop taking orders like 20 mins before close. read more

Kingyubu is tucked conveniently next to Daiso. From the first bite, it's clear this spot is playing in its own lane bold flavors, thoughtful combinations, and an attention to balance that elevates every dish. I ordered the Korean Cheese and Sausage Corn Dog, drizzled in sweet and spicy sauce. The exterior was perfectly crisp, giving way to a stretchy, indulgent cheese pull and savory sausage inside. The sauce struck that elusive sweet and savory harmony. The yubu chobop was where Kingyubu truly flexed its creativity at an affordable price from $4.95-$6.95. The Unagi Avocado Yubu paired rich, grilled eel with creamy avocado, glossy eel sauce, and a shower of tempura flakes for crunch luxurious yet balanced. The Philly Cream Cheese Salmon Yubu leaned into comfort, combining Philadelphia cream cheese, buttery salmon, avocado, and unagi sauce for a smooth, indulgent bite that melted together effortlessly. For something heartier, the Grilled Bulgogi Yubu delivered tender ribeye marinated in bulgogi sauce, layered with ssamjang mayo, scallions, and sesame. It was savory, slightly sweet, and deeply satisfying. The Queen Mermaid Yubu was crispy, creamy, and brimming with umami. The Onion Mayo Karaage Yubu stood out with juicy chicken karaage dressed in spicy mala mayo and finished with a bright squeeze of lemon, cutting through the richness beautifully. And one of the best seller, the King Yubu, lived up to its name when it came together in a vibrant, ocean-forward bite that was fresh, complex, and impeccably balanced. To finish ordered a drink of Florecer & Hibiscus refreshed the palate with a revitalizing fusion of tangy grapefruit and delicate floral hibiscus light, aromatic, and the perfect closer. Beyond the food, the service deserves special mention. The server was warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic. Her recommendations of the signature favorites truly hit the spot. Kingyubu isn't just a meal it's a journey of flavors, textures at an affordable price for any budget. Definitely recommend! read more

Love this new location. Idk if they're the same owners, but they also have Kingfriez and corn dogs! I got a couple corn dogs and a mini chicken bowl and was very satisfied with the portion and deliciousness. It was only about $25, which is CHEAP in this godforsaken city nowadays. Workers were nice and it's right across a Paris Baguette, so I just got some sweets while I waited. Will be back. read more

Super good!! Spicy Salmon was my fave!! The salmon was fresh and the sauce was yum!! I liked the beef one too!!
