I enjoyed the light flavoring for both the spicy noodles and meat dumplings. There is vinegar, salt, wassabi paste (?)on the side if you wish to add more flavor. I would reccommend the meat over the kimchi dumpling IMO. It was pretty tasty with the noodles. The wait line was not not too long. I checked in and was seated pretty fast. Make sure to go inside and join the wait list. The parking lot is pretty small and includes a valet that costs $3 flat rate. I was lucky to find parking when i went. Otherwise there is street parking around. Looking forward to trying their ox bone soup next time! read more

Great place - if I were to recommend one item on the menu, it's the ribs, followed by their cold noodle (nengmyun). Fast / efficient service, given the usually busy wait times on a weekend. Parking is valet, as is the case almost anywhere in koreatown read more

I would come back again tomorrow if I could. My friends and I were in the mood for some naengmyun and found Lee Ga. We ordered two naengmyun combos- one with kimchi dumplings and one with meat dumplings. We were genuinely surprised when trying the dumplings because they were gooood. Much better than expected. The naengmyun bowls were good and quite generous with the amount of noodles. We also got the seok galbi and the seok pork spare rib. I would say the pork spare rib was better by itself due to tenderness, but the galbi's sauce was very addictive. Either is a good choice in my opinion. I can't wait to return! read more

My fav spot for Sulung Tang (Oxtail Soup)! Broth is clean and beef brisket is super tender + given in abundance. Another bonus point for their side dishes which taste freshly made. You can't go wrong with it for $15.99 especially after a night of drinking. I've also tried their Yuk Gae Jang (Spicy Beef Soup) but wasn't a big fan. Owner and servers are super attentive and nice. They offered a to-go bowl before I asked and even filled it up for me. read more

Cold noodle was decent. What made us upset was that the server said there were no more ribs at 9pm along with other stuff that included kimchi, cabbage, etc. That was fine with us but what really made the experience terrible was that someone who came later than us ordered ribs. I kept on looking at them along with other customers and asked the server politely what the table over there ordered and he said the ribs. I told him that he let us know it was all sold out so why were the able to order food? He said he found out there were ribs available. Ok fine, but maybe in the future let other customers know that it's actually on the menu instead of making customers feel like they cold only order cold noodles and dumplings since even chive pancakes were sold out too...not coming back to this place ever! read more

This is my default, go-to, standard, cold noodle business in town. I absolutely love the rib combo. I like to put mustard and vinegar in the cold noodles. I've also had dumplings, and they're exquisite. I do not ever foresee at time when I don't come to this fine establishment at least once a month. In fact, I have it on my calendar. Thank you! read more

Their side dishes are just like home cooking! The gutjuly kimchee even has oysters! The cool naengmyin and spicy pork with cheese scorched on top was amazing. Lee GA's lunch special is a steal. read more

I have heard of many good things about this restaurant, and so i decided to grab lunch at this joint. Absolutely did not disappoint! The restaurant's vibe was quite modern and the servers were attentive and quick to help. We got the cold noodle and rib combo, and the gukbap. The naeng myun, cold noodle, were good in my opinion, but honestly do prefer yuchon. The toppings, pear slices and the meat cuts, were good and the noodles were nicely bouncy. The other dishes definitely blew my mind. The Guk bap was quite hearty and the soup definitely rejuvenated my vitality to go through the day. Its flavor was perfect and the veggies and meat in the soup was absolutely on point! I would come back for this. The best part of the meal were the ribs. Hands down was surprised by the subtle sweetness and the tenderness of the meat on the bone! It makes me want to try the other meat dishes like the galbi. Their marinade packs a punch and wakens my tastebuds, leaving me to crave for more. Overall great food, great ambiance, but bad parking. Would definitely come back to try more! read more

I would definitely come here again! The parking is cheap ($3 valet) and the food was delicious. Had the meat dumplings, oxtail soup, and the kimchi stew with pork ribs. Everything was great! While the kimchi stew was the most expensive dish, my favorite was actually the oxtail. The clear broth with just a little salt and pepper was amazing and the oxtail was flavorful and juicy. The mandu was very tasty and I'd get it again but I often find with mandu they stick to the paper underneath them and they get kinda messed up as you try to pull them off. No difference here. The kimchi stew was really good and the pork ribs in the stew were great. One slight negative was a glass was pretty dirty that we were given but they did replace it. My tip is to always check your glass before using it. And make sure you know when the valets will leave. It was 9:45 pm and while several restaurants in the plaza were still open, the valets had left read more

Very delicious home made Korean food! Lots of different types of naengmyun to choose from, as well as beef soups. Service was amazing- we thought our 2 year old would sleep the rest of the night but she woke up. The owner offered to give us some soup broth, rice as service for her. He truly went above and beyond offering wet wipes and refilling anything that ran low. Would definitely recommend this place! read more

I saw this place had imported a noodle machine from Korea so I had to stop in and try one of my favorite Korean dishes (mul naengmyun). I ordered the naengmyun combo which comes with your choice of dumplings and I decided to go with the meat filling. My boyfriend ordered the seok galbi that they brought out completely cooked and put it on top of a burner to keep it warm while you eat. The dish was topped which a bunch of green onions and mushrooms that added a bit of freshness to eat bite. The dumplings came out steaming hot and were stuffed full of fillings and served with a delicious sauce on the side. As a big fan of dumplings, I can't wait to come back in and try the other kimchi filling. My naengmyun was served iced cold and the broth was nice and tart with just the perfect amount of sweetness. I loved the noodles and it hit the spot after returning from a trip. Our server was so friendly and made sure to bring us out extra sides to enjoy our meal making our dinner extra amazing and we can't wait to come back in. read more

Although Lee Ga is relatively new, I can see why it has become one of the best restaurants in Ktown and now one of my regulars. Parking: They have a lot that is open if it's a non-busy day (non-weekend). On the weekends it's valet but there is always street parking if you look hard enough Staff: They are fast and nice Ambiance: Small space but very chill vibe with a Kpop playing in the background. Place has good ventilation as well. Food: I've had their Seok Galbi, dumplings, and sulung tang. Their seok galbi is my favorite and probably what they are most known for. If you've ever Sun Nong Dan, it's like galbi-jjim but not saucy. Instead, the short ribs have this amazing charbroiled flavor and comes simmering with onions, potatoes, and green onions. It is a must have. They also have pretty good dumplings and sulung tang! Def a must try in the area read more

Attentive waitresses. They'll offer to refill your sides. I ordered the Spicy Pork Hansang. I loved the doenjang soup it comes with. Everything was delicious! read more

Had heard amazing stuff about this place. Came with the wifey and gotta say, did not disappoint!

This place was so good, I'll definitely be coming back. We ordered the Gogi Mandu, Galbi Jjim , and Gob Haejang Guk, and for two people this was way too much food. I really enjoyed the Gob Haejang Guk, the broth was flavorful and just the right amount of spice. Perfect for a cold day. The people were nice and very helpful when it came to asking for suggestions. The restaurant was small and cozy, and very clean. read more

We ordered the beef back ribs, cold noodle, spicy oxbone soup, and ox bone soup with rice cake and dumplings. My favorite out of all dish would be the cold noodle and the beef back ribs. The cold is noddle is very refreshing and has a strong flavor, and for the beef back ribs it was very tender and has a very nice sweet flavor on the meat and soup as well. The soups that I got were pretty good as well. The service was quick and very nice. All the workers are nice as well. The place itself was quite small so there was a bit of wait time. Overall, I had good experience and would come back again. read more

Yelp needs to adjust the closing time at Lee Ga. It's advertised as 11pm close but in reality it's 10pm. Their last call is at 10pm. It was really disappointing when we went at 10:04pm and had the owner(?) scoot us out. We were really looking forward to a nice cold bowl of 냉면 and 갈비 during this heat wave. read more

LEE GA - Operating hours Last line is hidden by the sign and not visible. - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I came with some expectations but not a ton since my wife and I are definitely on the picky side when it comes to Korean food. Having devoured some of the best Korean dishes in Korea during our trips, we've become quite the snobs when discussing Korean food. So back to my point, we weren't expecting too much from Lee Ga. Having said that, we've been having suffocating heat everyday here in LA for over a week. We definitely were hankering for some good Naeng Myun. So we thought we'd give this place a try ..... and boy, we were not disappointed one iota. The naeng myun at Lee Ga is totally legit. They don't go over the top or under deliver in any way. Their broth is right up there with anybody in California. The first thing we do when we get a bowl of naeng myun is slurp a bit of the broth even before we do anything else to it. And immediately, our eyes got round with joy as we don't get good naeng myung very much in LA. For fun, we got the Meat Mandu on top, and even that tasted really great as a sidekick to this naeng myun. The servers were so nice to us and even gave us some pointers on what to try if we ever return (oh we're returning for sure). We finally have a go-to for our LA naeng myun cravings! read more

Service was outstanding. Super nice. The food was incredible! Absolutely incredible! My wife and I came for the first time and we are coming back to try the other items. The kimchi dumplings are the best I have had in ktown. Hands down. The hot beef soup was so good. We ate it all and drank all the soup. The cold noodle was also very good. Yuchun is still the king with this dish, but this is a close second. I also almost drank all of the soup. My feet are gonna be swollen from all the sodiums but damn guys... totally worth it! read more

Ordered the beef soup, sulungtang. Nice clean restaurant with pleasant waitress. However beef soup had a smell. My friend who was with me said its from using cheap beef. I am not used to this smell on Korean beef soup. They would do good business if they care more about their food than ambience and being nice. read more
