    Spicy rice cakes
    Pawan S.

    Cool little Korean spot if you're looking for a quick bite. I love the vibe inside and the service is really good. They were quick to seat us and take our order. I got the bulgogi garlic noodles and these were amazing 10/10. I just wish it came with more meat because it was really good. The garlic amount is perfect and they really get the noodles saucy which I love when eating garlic noodles. My girlfriend ordered the spicy rice cakes, I'm not the biggest rice cakes fan so I can't say much but from what I ate it was really good and it definitely has a kick. But overall this is a really solid Korean spot but there are definitely better in oc.

    Tteokbokki Combo A
    Vi D.

    This place is as good as I remember it. We got the Combo A with spice level 2, which is halfway between buldak 1 and x2. The portion size is huge, so don't go ordering more food if there are only two of you. The music was blaring and they played my favorite songs, but it was between lunch and dinner so it was unnecessarily loud with just the two of us in the restaurant. Check this place out when you get the chance. I bet it gets really packed at night!

    giant chicken katsu, giant tteokbokki, and beef garlic noodles
    Helen N.

    I recall being absolutely stuffed after coming here for the first time. I had seen so many TikTok's of this place and I was so excited to come here to try it! I was not disappointed at all. The chicken katsu is so massive and delicious, all crunchy goodness with an amazing side of curry and tonkatsu sauce. The tteokbokki had a nice spicy kick to it and it's perfect paired with the cheese. And the garlic noodles were so garlicky and I love all the onions in them. The lady who took our order was super sweet and the vibe is really nice! They play a lot of K-pop music, which I enjoyed. Highly recommend this place if you enjoy giant portions of food. Expect to take it home with you!

    Army stew
    Andrew D.

    Great pocha-type establishment! This place definitely gives off a fast casual vibe with quick service and upbeat music. It's great for any occasion and open late so it can be good for food after late night events. We got the katsu and army stew and both were great! The katsu was huge! Super crispy and great with the includes curry and katsu sauce. The army stew had a good combination of ingredients and was good for the cold weather. Recommend to those in the area looking for a late night comfort bite!

    Mild Tteokbokki, Fried Seaweed Noodle Rolls, and Mozzarella Sticks
    Megan D.

    After trying out this spot, I will for sure be making my return. Everything we ordered was delish, and it wasn't an unbearable level of spice. I've been to other Tteok spots and mild was already too much, so this was perfect. We also had an order of garlic chicken wings and those were good as well. Service was good, and there were a lot of seats when I went. I wouldn't say the are plenty of tables, but we went a bit early, so I'm assuming we happened to beat the crowd. I definitely see the restaurant getting packed during peak hours though.

    Katsu

    Came here late after a concert in LA with a group of friends. The venue has a great party ambiance with the lighting and electronic music. I felt like I was ready to party again. The service was fast and to the point. Set A Combo (LD + Tempura Rice Balls) - The rice balls were pretty underwhelming because it had a neutral flavor. Set C Combo (Katsu + LuvDDuk) - I am a fan of their thin katsu. It was well seasoned and had the perfect crunch and crispiness to it.

    Cheese Corn.
    Rosellyn Joyce M.

    Okay service is great. It's the first time I've been to a restaurant where I don't need to ask for refills of water because the lady kept replacing our carafe! Thank you for that! It "looks like a typical burger joint inside with Booths. There's a side door for to go orders. Food service was quick and the portions are big. For their price, I would hope so. We ordered the following: Bulgolgi Fries Garlic Steak Noodle Egg Cheese corn Ranking in best to so-so, I'd have to say is the steamed egg. Yes, I was surprised too. I thought the Bulgolgi fries would be number one. Sadly it's not. If you mess up steamed egg, ima gonna say no to the rest of your menu. I would order two next time and just stick to that. The cheese corn was okay, but compared to PaDak and other local Korean spot I say skip this. The cheese tasted weird to me and I did t like that it was also a kraft American cheese. As a cheese lover, I only expect that square cheese to be on a burger or cheese melt. The Bulgolgi Fries could serve 3 people. But it was drenched with sauce, and spicy sauce. Not enough Bulgolgi to pay $20. The cut of fries were this nd tasted like sweet potato. It just didn't fit my taste buds. The Garlic noodle okay. That's Al I have to say about that. I'm glad I finally tried this place, but I don't know if I would come back for anything on their menu. I would rather go next door or across the street.

    Great food, super comfort food essentially. Share portions so order sparingly. Absolutely love the chicken katsu

    Tteok beokki
    Serina L.

    The best thing was probably the fried chicken!! The picture on the menu showed pickled veggies which we didn't get /: I also didn't like the ranch with the chicken but it's ok, don't have to use it The service was really good too! Always on top of refilling the water so that was nice. The space is actually quite small and it was busy on a Friday night! Probably waited 20-40 minutes to be seated!

    This is a great late night spot if you are craving Korean comfort food, especially tteokbokki. Parking: The restaurant is in a shopping plaza with plenty of free parking. If you're coming here at night, the adjacent businesses are also open late so it feels pretty safe. Food: We ordered the Combo A, which comes with tteokbokki, tempura, and rice balls. It was a good value for two people, with generous portions that left us full and leftovers to take home. The tteokbokki was flavorful, the tempura was crispy, and the rice balls paired well with the spicy sauce. Overall, the food was solid. Service: The staff checked in on us regularly and were nice. One thing I really appreciated is that they are open late, which makes this a great option when many other places are already closed. This is definitely a place I would come back to when the craving for Korean street food hits.

    We got: -Combo B: Army Ramen Soup + Rice Balls -Combo D: Luv Dduk & whole Fried chicken with soy garlic & sweet n' spicy sauce -Bulgogi Fries -Terra Beer and Peach Soju (BOGO deal for their happy hour!) Luv Dduk is a cheese-lovers' heaven, and a must-try spot for large groups! They offer cost-effective set menus with satisfying, generous portions that are perfect for sharing. We loved the army ramen soup paired with rice balls, and the tteokbokki set (with ramen noodles) that comes with a whole fried chicken, served with a variety of delicious sauces like soy garlic & sweet n spicy. It is crispy, juicy, and seriously addictive! Their bulgogi fries were so savory and smothered with melted cheese. Everything felt hearty and comforting, making it an ideal place for hangouts or when you're just craving something cheesy and filling!

    Corn cheese, bulgogi noodles, shrimp fried rice
    Melanie P.

    We were sat immediately and the servers were very attentive. The food was fantastic. We got the shrimp fried rice and the bulgogi noodles and also cheese corn. The rice and noodle dishes were very fresh and flavorful. The corn cheese was good but the slice of American cheese in the middle was a little odd. We for sure will go back

    Darlene K.

    Luv Dduk is hands down one of the best spots for late-night eats in the area. It's my go-to place whenever I'm craving tteokbokki, and they never disappoint. The flavors are bold, comforting, and exactly what you want, especially late at night. I also really love their fried chicken--it's crispy, well-seasoned, and pairs perfectly with the rest of the menu. Everything feels indulgent in the best way. I also have a lot of appreciation for them staying open for pickup during COVID. That reliability and consistent service really mattered, and it solidified this place as a true staple for me.

    Do they offer gift cards?

    Not that am aware of

    Are the rice cakes here made from rice or wheat flour? I know that sounds strange, but a lot of Dduk is made from wheat flour not rice flour, and yet Dduk is often still just translated as "Rice cake."

    It is made with wheat flour. The word dduk as rice cake is a rough translation. There are different types of dduk made with different types of ingredients, not just rice. So dduk is translated to rice cake but it does not mean that dduk has to be… Read more

    Yes, my mom and I ordered the mild level and it's just perfect for us who don't eat too spicy

    When is happy hour and what are the specials?

    Yes lots of happy hour specials

    記憶中懷念的鐵板麵+蛋+濃濃醬汁的味道!玉米濃湯好好喝,大蒜麵包就是好香哪~~老闆也好親切~一試成主顧!…read more The taste totally brought me back The sizzling noodles with egg and that rich, flavorful sauce tasted exactly like the kind of comfort food I grew up loving. The corn chowder was sooo good, and the garlic bread smelled amazing the moment it came out The owner was also super friendly. Definitely one of those places that makes you want to come back again and again!

    Nice mom and son store with great Taiwanese food and even greater authentic Taiwanese restaurant…read moreexperience! Came here for the first time and was immediately greeted and seated by Taiwan ma. Her Taiwanese hospitality is both straight forward and honest. She didn't want me sitting right next to the door to avoid the cold draft. I also returned my Taiwanese honesty mentioning not wanting to take up a bigger table for just 1 person. Looked through the menu and chose the filet mignon rare. She looked shocked for the rare request and we gently negotiated for a 5(分)out of 10 10 being well done. Meaning medium. The food came and it was great. Medium was perfect amount of rare as Taiwan ma knew it would be. Perhaps American scale and Taiwanese scale are different and I'm the fool for not knowing. With the tenderness of the meat and the flavors of the mushroom gravy working in symphony, I was in texture and flavor heaven. The corn chowder and 2 slices of French garlic bread before was also perfect in every way from simple presentation to the crispness of the toast to how well the chowder soaked into the bread with a dip. Amazing. Taiwan son talked to me about Pokémon cards and Taiwan ma talked about sleep disorders and some happenings in the community. You can tell she really cares about her customers and their wellbeing. She reminds me of who I try to be as a dentist playing doctor in my community and I called her a food doctor as a compliment! Earlier, I heard Taiwan son talk about dating woman of different nationalities and Taiwan ma told her son in passing that I have an Indian wife! As if I could be a source of wisdom in interracial relationships. I'm not. While this maybe a source of awkwardness for some, this Taiwanese banter warms my heart and makes me wish I live nearby to come see them every week! Maybe I can be her son's wing man and help him catch some foreign game? Haha sorry for bleeding that Taiwanese banter onto the virtual Yelp pages. Taiwan ma told me the history of her journey opening the original store in Rowland heights, then moving here. Sold the place in 2018 and just reclaimed the restaurant in November of 2025. Wishing her the best of luck and that I could come see her and her son thriving every year I come to Anaheim for the dental convention CDA
