    All the plants  I purchased here today, they need 'proper' pots but it's definitely making me smile!
    Joy S.

    This is a review specifically for the little plant store in the parking garage. It's a small store, the lady here sells quite a variety of plants. Prices range from $10 and up for her orchid selection. Good quality and just a sweet place that I can recommend to those who like plants!

    I love this plaza! From the food court to the surplus of shops, there are plenty of things to do here. The variety of shops is extremely large. There were toy stores, skin care stores, stores that sold cooking supplies, it was endless They had a decent amount of kpop related shops if you are into that music. The food court was bustling, and really showcased k-town's culture. There are plenty of affordable food options, and you will be given a pager which will go off when your food is ready. There is a lot of seating available. The customer service at these shops is pretty good!

    This mall is a gem and has great restaurants, shops and grocery stores. Our kids love the fountain and the festive decorations around the holiday season.

    I've always come here for the H Mart, but then my friend mentioned they had a food court and I was really shocked because I never knew about it. I'd say there were about 12 food stalls with a variety of different Korean foods. I ended up getting budae jjigae because I wanted something soupy. This, along with all the other food stalls, has a very homey feeling. I really liked the budae jjigae because it feels like I'm eating a home cooked meal. I think the broth had a nice flavor and wasn't overpowering with any spices. There was also a really nice ratio of meat to soup. The serving was pretty large and it came with a lot of side dishes that I enjoyed. They do close around 7:30pm, so just be aware. This place is a good spot if you want a bunch of Korean food in one area. Definitely recommend this place for a homey meal! There is a parking garage available. Usually it's free with validation. Staff is really friendly and most speak English. Lots of seating available and a great place for your next meal.

    Koreatown Galleria is a three-level indoor shopping center. It is one of the three notable Korean indoor shopping centers with Korean supermarket in Koreatown (Koreatown Galleria, Koreatown Plaza, and MaDang Courtyard). Parking: Free garage parking up to 2 hours. Basement floor: Galleria Market (Korean supermarket). 1st floor: Multiple clothing stores, one Korean beauty store, Hanmi Bank, etc. 2nd floor: A mini food court with an outdoor patio (limited space), Little Bean Café, Korean bookstore, etc. Personally I like Galleria Market better than H Mart just from a block away. The food court at Koreatown Galleria has a small outdoor patio where as the food court at Koreatown Plaza doesn't have an outdoor patio (underground food court); however, Koreatown Galleria doesn't have an appliance store, upscale clothing shops, and hair salons like the one you will find in Koreatown Plaza. Overall it is a great shopping center for anyone who's looking for a Korean food court with an outdoor patio, shopping Korean goods at Galleria Market, or getting a cup of latte at Little Bean Café.

    Not a bad place to explore if you're not from the area and are not sure what to do. I wouldn't go out of my way specifically since I can access Korean supermarkets and shops near me no problem. There's 1 hour free street parking that becomes free parking after a certain time and the parking garage is 2 hour parking. There's clothing, a miscellaneous item store, and a plant store in the parking lot. The ground floor has the Galleria market, Cake House, Witch's Chicken, a sushi/kimbap place, and random small kiosks. As you head upstairs there's a small area with X-mas decorations and the main mall floor has the Christmas tree and some fountains. The first mall floor has a jewelry store, health shops, "health furniture", a cosmetic store, etc. Second floor has more of the exciting stuff, the food court with indoor and outdoor seating (they have heat lamps for when it gets cold), a car accessories shop, Korean book store, gift shop, a skateboard/snowboard store, a K pop store, etc. You can probably kill around an hour or so here for sure.

    11-5-21 This is my go-to place for quick and good Korean food when I am in LA, but now my daughter tells me there is a better place. I cannot wait to try it; maybe my next trip? Quality/Quantity - Fresh, made to order. Bulgogi Kimbap - Made fresh to order, cut thinly - I would have preferred thicker pieces. 8pcs Sushi Combo, Salmon Avocado - Fresh, although all pieces were kind of small. They provided a generous amount of soy sauce (usually only 1 packet), wasabi and the ginger was actually edible. Again, this was our LA Korean go-to place. Atmosphere - Clean. The deli is inside a supermarket. They had plenty of employees working. We took the food upstairs to the food court to eat. There were plenty of seats. They had public clean bathrooms; you need a code, but do not worry because they write it on the door. Service - Good service. Cashier approached us and offered to make us whatever we wanted. Price - $28.49; a little pricey, but we were craving this. Owner Suggestion - Keep up the good work, if you follow my next LA visit I will share some information on your competitor, LOL.

    Always my go-to for out-of-town friends and adventurous folks who want to try something different. The quality of food considering this is a food Court is excellent. Recently, I noticed the outdoor patio being utilized more so during this pandemic.

    The shopping center establishment has its own underground parking, with stairs and elevator access to the grocery store, bakery shop, food court and other boutiques. It's usually getting more crowded during the weekend.

    I love pretty much anything authentic, hole-in-the-wall, and anything that closely resembles a cultural experience. I love korean food and have recently become obsessed with kimchi stew this past year. When coming to LA, I was like, okay, come to Korea-town and go everywhere where Yelp tells me might be authentic or OG. It brought me here! I love this shopping mall gallery thing. I love how it has it's own parking spot and a grocery store, then an actual mall full of Korean stores! I really do wish we had one of these in Seattle! I loved how the stores sold a lot of Korean dresses/clothing and loved the skincare stores! The grocery store reminded me of H-Mart and had everything you could dream about for Korean items! Lots of random stores too, like a store for car accessories, a store for the Sanrio-alike characters, clothing, makeup, etc. I got a great keychain wallet from there! The best part of this mall was definitely the food. Seriously HELLA cheap for the amount of food you get, it is ridiculous! I was able to buy a big a$$ bowl of beef rib stew for $15, which could have easily fed 2-3 people, and then I ordered sondobu which was about $10 which easily also could have fed about 2-3 people! The bowls were huge and nobody ever finished their portions. But it was incredible! Loved how authentic the food was and loved the portion sizes. I'd recommend this for anyone who wants to shop for anything, grocery shop, and then have a deliciously cheap (HUGE) meal and leave feeling so well fed you just dream about more of it the next day. Ample parking in the garage, close to bus lines, and pretty cool. Lots of things to shop for!

    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!

Then as we entered I noticed it was mainly all Korean stores that we passed by. The place does look old and a little ran down. And the elevators wasn't working when we was there. We had to use the escalators since we parked upstairs but didn't even kno that lol. We passed by a Korean skincare stand that looked really popular or maybe they had an event cus it was a line of girls. We went to another store that sold needohs and squeeezy squishes but they was way too fuckin overpriced and tbh I couldn't tell if they was the legit real ones or not so passed on that. Then the food court was probably the best part of the mall that we explored besides H-mart. I went to use the restroom there and it didn't look too clean. The food court had so many different little eateries I wanted to try them out but we was already going to a noodle place after. I should've just tried it out anyway cus the noodle place we went to was mid af lol. Maybe next time we come back I will!

As somewhat expected in a highly populated area in a big city, be vigilant and watch out for yourself, because despite cameras everywhere and the occasional security personnel, you tend to see some shady characters lurking around. Location 4 stars: In the Fairfax District area of Los Angeles, to the East of the original Farmer's Market. The Grove has a huge but very busy parking structure, so while you may have to journey to the upper levels, you will eventually find parking. Although some restaurants will validate part of the parking fees, be prepared to pay somewhere between $10 and $30 depending on how long you stay and which stores you visit. Their validation rules are fairly complex and not straightforward, so be sure to read all the fine print. They also have Valet parking on premises. Venue 4 stars: Nice modern open air set up with a Nordstrom, Zara and H&M and a bunch of smaller stores, an AMC movie theater, a Barnes and Noble, a Cheesecake Factory, and a variety of coffee shops and restaurants to fit most tastes and budgets. One catch being that the Grove parking lot cannot be validated by the Farmers Market stores and vice versa. Once you are on premises you can use the trolly to move from one end of the venue to the other. Also keep in mind that the Original Farmers Market is literally next door and attached to the Grove, which dramatically increases your food options.

There's lots of floors and we had to go to the 4th floor. Make sure to bring your ticket to validate parking at one of the stores, we spent our time at Barnes and noble to pick out some things and we validated there. The place was packed on a Sunday, since it's an outdoor area, it was really hot and staying in the stores helped cool us off, especially if they had AC on full blast. Going back to the parking lot was a challenge, since there isn't a parking attendant around, there isn't service you can get help right away. Parking price is expensive if you stay more than 2 hours, I suggest coming for the 2 hours and validate it at a store or if you end up staying longer and reaching full price (max daily), might as well spend the feast of the day there since they already have everything you need for lunch and dinner. FYI, driving out of the 4th floor took some time so if you're in a rush, so is everyone else and some cars go so fast you might not see them in time around sharp turns and yield signs!

The big food festival that happens every week is what initially brought me to the Row and there is so much to discover there. I also often come here to charge my Tesla ~ charging on Level 5. The Row opened almost 10 years ago on the edge of Arts District and is spread across 30 acres. As mentioned with the charging, they do have a parking garage which is really nice when coming here. And it's a nice garage, well kept and clean, free for 2 hours with validation. You never need to worry about parking when you come here! Like much of Arts District, it's kind of industrial chic vibes. It's an open-air spot with just lovely landscaping and seating all around. There are some excellent food options like Pikunico and Hayato, as well as Go Get Em Tiger for coffee needs. Very cool stores including concept spots and trendy clothing shops.

That being said, ROW DTLA is a dreamscape when it comes to filming content and just catching city vibes in a safe space. Located near the Arts District this space of buildings used to be utilized for the textile industry. With multi floored buildings creating rows of foot traffic on the ground this space is perfect for events, pop ups, and get togethers. It's one of the reasons why Smorgasburg is held here on Sundays. It's why on any given weekend there may be an event being held, whether it be to celebrate AAPI month or the different creatives in the area. This space is filled with homegrown businesses and unique shops to visit. One of my favorite places is Hightide which is a Japanese stationary and supplies shop. The vibes are immaculate and walking in really feels like being in a store in Japan. Another popular space is Scent Bar for those who love perfume and are aromaphiles. With plenty of small curated artists being featured in this apothecary of aromas, Scent Bar is a nice stop whilst visiting the Row. If you're looking for interesting and discussion worthy furniture A+R is a must, located at one of the ends of the Row. For good coffee with artistic vibes you got to check out GGET (Go Get Em Tiger). Next to that if you're looking for stronger waters is Flask & Field with smaller batch and independent distilleries and crafters. All of this and the parking is free for the first 2 hours. In LA, that's unheard of! And it's a large parking structure with modern infrastructure. Blessed. With all this, hopefully ROW DTLA will continue to grow with more businesses and still retain its charm as time marches forward. Good for a short stay or half a day, if you're looking for things to do in LA proper, ROW DTLA is worth your drive.
