Went here a friends birthday celebration. Amazing food! Personally I wouldn't have ordered the boiled chicken. It was ok but not at the list price. The rest of the ensemble was amazing. Something you don't experience anywhere else! Amazing service. Received a lot of great recommendation! Love the place, nice and cozy spot. Dim lighting for the outdoor seating read more

Overhyped finally burned a chunk of my Chase Sapphire Reserve credit here, and let's just say I'm glad it was the bank's money and not mine. Majordomo seems to be trapped in an identity crisis: it can't decide if it's an Asian restaurant, a wannabe fine-dining establishment, or just a social experiment to see how much people will pay for "creative" lettuce. The "Bing" bread was actually competent--great texture, solid flavor and dip. I suppose the kitchen peaked in the first five minutes. It was all downhill from there. The tapioca noodles were a tragedy. They lacked that signature, satisfying chew you'd expect from actual quality Asian noodles. They were less "authentic comfort food" and more "sad, limp regret." Then there was the Bok Choy, which arrived looking like it had been through a traumatic encounter with a Brussels sprout griller, doused in some bizarre, creamy-sweet sauce that I can only assume was an accident. The prime rib? A masterclass in audacity. It was priced like it had been massaged daily by a professional athlete, yet it tasted like something I could order at a chain steakhouse for a fraction of the cost. The mushroom rice was equally salty and underwhelming--I've had more excitement from a box of instant mix. Majordomo is a fascinating place if your goal is to spend a small fortune to leave feeling more confused than hungry. If you're looking for actual Asian food, keep driving. If you're looking to watch your credit card statement weep, you've found the spot. read more

Majordomo - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Majordomo is an LA staple and I haven't been back to try it in years. I think your experience here may largely depend on what you order. Raw marinated prawns- comes in a kimchi marinade with the fried shrimp head on the side - good and fresh, make sure to eat the head while it's hot! Ricotta, jam, and chili crunch bing- could have done without this. Almost like naan with dip. Nothing special about it. Smoked fish dip- our server pushed us toward the little gem salad but we decided on this instead. We thought from previous pictures it came with roe on top. It did not. The dip itself was good but the chips were not fresh and crunchy and kinda chewy and stale. Would not order again. Mushroom crispy rice- for $48 this was good, but I think could have been done a lot better. I found it too salty. Shiitake mushroom normally has an almost sweet, umami flavor. The mushroom was cut too small and the salt was too overwhelming to let any of the original flavor shine. I was sad when the server broke and mixed the sauce and crispy rice for us because the crisp was lost within the first few minutes. Without the crisp this just becomes an overly salty rice dish. Ribeye- the best! Cooked well, Garlic confit to spread on each piece of meat, and a perfectly light tart bearnaise sauce on the side to balance. Would order this again. Dessert- Choco pot de creme- loved that the chocolate mousse was a little spicy. Felt the cream on top and mousse on top tasted good individually but made no sense together. Service was great until the end when we sat with empty plates and untouched food for quite a bit but our server walked by us several times busy doing closing side work before we were able to ask for the check and some boxes. Ambiance is chic Asian fusion. Mitsi is across the way if you wanted to grab a drink. Overall I'd come back but would probably order different things. I've heard the pork is good. read more

First time trying the new weekend brunch menu and it did not disappoint! Made a reservation only a week in advance and there were plenty of times available. All the dishes were excellent. My table ordered two of the bing basket which were more like traditional rolls but just as good as the regular bing. The steak and egg crispy rice was my personal savory favorite. Would definitely reorder that and the crispy potatoes, which are a lighter version compared to the dinner potatoes. read more

Came here for the first time with my parents for my dad's birthday. It's a restaurant where everything is shareable, and we ordered A LOT. We had leftovers for days after we finished our meal. Bing w/Cultured Butter and Honey + Smoked Eggplant and Pine Nut: This was phenomenal, I really enjoyed this dish. It seems like it's one piece of bread per dip you order, since we only received two pieces. I do wish they provided more bread because the amount of dip they provide with the amount of bread feels a little wasteful, especially for the price. Sugar Snap Peas: Tastes good, but an interesting choice. Usually, they're cooked, even when served as an appetizer, so it was a little off-putting. Bossam: Absolutely delicious. This is more than enough for 3 people. It's very tender and flavorful; it does not disappoint. We loved the option of both butter lettuce and perilla leaves for wraps. Pavlova: Unfortunately, we did not enjoy this dessert option. The way it was described on the dessert menu, we expected a mousse, but it was a merigue instead Parking: It's very difficult to find street parking. There's a parking lot across the street available, and I think it was $15. read more

I've had Majordomo marked for years, and I honestly don't know why it took me so long to finally make it here. Now I understand why people keep coming back. One of the best meals I've had this year. Everything was a hit -- from the salad to the side dishes, the meat, and dessert. Nothing disappointed. The menu is definitely made for sharing, and every dish felt thoughtful, flavorful, and fun. My favorite was the fried pepper. I think I'll be dreaming about it, and I would come back just for that. We were definitely overloaded with meat, but in the best way. The decor and ambience are very chill -- lively, relaxed, and very LA without feeling pretentious. We came for my mommy friend's birthday, and it was perfect for a moms' night out, but the crowd also had that young, hip energy. It feels like a place that works for all ages. Service was very attentive and knowledgeable without hovering. Parking is right next door by the Electric Theater lot, about $15 with no validation, so carpooling is probably the move. Love it, love it, love it. Definitely coming back. read more

They have a dedicated parking lot ($15) right next to the restaurant but there's plenty of street parking on the weekdays. Food was delicious -- we got their bing with the eggplant dip. Super flavorful and vibrant. Their mushroom crispy rice was packed with umami and so much flavor! I also got the ichi-rita (?) drink and it was delicious! Vibes inside the restaurant are nice for a date night or catching up with friends. read more

Personally, I think I expected more from the food for the price it was set at. While the bing was an amazing appetizer (would get that if you are planning to go), the Bo ssam and rib eye kind of fell short from expectations. I felt like I have gotten better steaks and Bo ssams from cheaper restaurants (just taste wise). If I were to go again, I think I would try their other dishes and do a tapa style vibe. I felt like there was a lot of ambient noise and it was difficult to have conversations with my group. Nothing wrong with that, but I think my experience was just different from my expectations. I can't speak much for the seating inside. The service was great! Everyone was really nice so no complaints there. read more

This hidden gem has a super cute and romantic ambiance with indoor and outdoor seating. Everything was really good but a bit on the smaller side... for the table we ordered: Tuna carpaccio (10/10) ricotta, jam, and chili crunch (not pictured) (7/10), gem salad (10/10) grilled branzino (9/10) and asked for extra capers Dessert: chocolate pot de creme (5/10) Service was good but not great. I'll def be back to try to the Mushroom crispy rice! No parking so we ubered to the spot. read more

I didn't realize this was a David Chang restaurant until my first bite then everything clicked. The venue was so cool - the open air concept was genuinely comforting. The cocktails were very floral and the small plates were so flavorful. The hanger steak was so flavorful and so tender. The desserts were good, albeit a bit small and plain. Service was nice and well paced. Overall enjoyed the concept. read more

There was a paid lot ($13), but we parked on the street instead. The restaurant is quite big with indoor and outdoor seating. Before arriving I already planned out what to order. We started with sliced hamachi (4/5). Then we had stuffed peppers (4.5/5), which were crispy and sizeable. Our main was the mushroom crispy rice (5/5). I love the different mushrooms and how the rice was crispy without being burnt. It was a comforting dish. As for sides, we had crispy potatoes (4.5/5) and fried cauliflower (3.5/5). I enjoyed the potatoes as they were soft inside while being crispy on the outside. I also liked the chili and garlic on them. Cauliflower is one of my go tos nowadays. This was probably the weakest dish for me though. Afterwards, I realized all of the vegetables I picked were fried. Oh well. We were quite full in the end and had some leftovers. We could've probably made do with one less dish. Service was good. The waitress was friendly and our water was refilled. She also helped us pack our leftovers. Overall, I enjoyed most of the dishes and had a nice time at this David Chang restaurant. read more

We arrived with a reservation for Saturday brunch. It was nice and quiet and there was plenty of space inside as well as on their nice patio. We tried the following: Bing Bun Basket with 3 sets of spreads (ricotta, jam & chili, honey butter, citron cream cheese & sesame): The bing bread was soft and warm, kinda like an airy pancake bread. The spreads were delicious. It was so good, we'd definitely get it again. Chicken Wings with sweet & spicy and honey garlic sauce: These crunchy fried drumettes were okay but not standout or worth the price. Steak Ssäm: We enjoyed the unique combination of flavors here with steak, shiso, pickled daikon, jalapeño, lettuce and rice. Choco Pot De Creme: a nice, rich chocolate pudding with whipped cream and crunchy flakes. Yuzu Medicina and Ichigo-Rita: decently strong fruity cocktails which we both enjoyed. Parking: There was an unstaffed, paid parking lot across the street. read more

The table got quiet for a second after the first few plates landed, which usually tells you everything. I came to Majordomo for dinner with my family and friends, and it ended up being one of those meals where everyone kept reaching back in for another bite. We ordered the tuna carpaccio, bing with butter and honey, stuffed peppers, smoked fish dips, tapioca lo mein, saam, raw marinated prawn, and grilled prawn, and the whole spread felt thoughtful and genuinely satisfying. Nothing felt like filler. Every dish brought something different to the table, and the food was so delicious that it reminded me why this is the kind of place people keep coming back to. What stood out most was how well the meal worked as a group dinner. There was a lot to share, a lot to talk about, and plenty that made you want one more bite before the plate moved away. The tuna carpaccio and prawns were especially memorable, and the bing with butter and honey was one of those simple things that just hits exactly right. The tapioca lo mein, saam, stuffed peppers, and smoked fish dips rounded everything out well, and the meal never lost momentum. Service was excellent from start to finish. Everyone was very friendly, and the staff checked in often without making it feel forced or intrusive. That steady attention made the whole dinner feel easy and welcoming. This was a strong five star visit for me. Majordomo is a great pick for a dinner with friends, especially if you want to order widely and share. read more

My partner took me here for my birthday dinner. It's a cool modern spot, dimly lit. My waitress was friendly and the sommelier was helpful with helping us decide on a bottle of wine. For the food, we ordered: - mushroom rice - snap peas - ricotta crispy chili jam - 40-day dry-aged steak The chili jam came with a very buttery naan bread. The ricotta was very creamy and silky. Still good, but this was the least of our favorites. The snap peas were very refreshing and citrusy. The mushroom rice is reminiscent of Chinese clay pot rice, where the rice is made crispy. We were nomming on this for the entirety of the night as we were waiting for our steak. The steak took about 30 minutes to come out. Our waitress graciously gave us complimentary sausage-stuffed fried peppers as an apology. This demonstrated really great service. Oh, and the peppers were dank. The steak had finally come out and it did not disappoint. My partner remarked it may have been the best steak she's had in a restaurant. It was a bomb-as-hell steak and I took personal notes for the next steak I'll cook up at home. All in all, it was an excellent dinner. Shout out to the service staff who made us feel seen, despite the late steak. I would come back with a larger group so that I can try out some of the other signature dishes that are meant to be shared. read more

Majordomo - 40 Day Dry Aged Steak - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We came here for Valentine's Day and, honestly, I didn't have very high expectations--but they completely exceeded them. Our server, James, was amazing. So professional and attentive--just an all-around great server. The Valentine's set menu was such a great deal, and everything that came out was delicious. The chicken was slightly on the salty side, but still really good. I especially loved that James suggested pairing some of the other dishes with the caviar--I'm so glad we took his advice because it made everything taste even better. The wine and sparkling sake were also excellent. My poor boyfriend was feeling really sick and couldn't eat much, but even he agreed that everything he tried was really good. The chocolate dessert looked very simple and anticlimactic compared to the other dishes, but the moment I took a bite, I was like WOW. I honestly haven't eaten at a restaurant recently where everything was this consistently good. I will for sure be returning. read more

Our starters - the carpaccio and sliced hamachi were delicious! The main dish, the boiled chicken tasted like what it sounds and leaves much to be desired. Its portioned for 4 but if you're not ordering many sides like us, 2-3 can finish it easily. The soup that comes with the chicken dish is also quite bland. Service was good but valet was $15 which I think should have been subsidized by the restaurant since there was little options for parking otherwise. read more

Honestly a little disappointed... First of all, we had a reservation and got there a little early, but they made us wait more than 30 minutes past our reservation time to be seated... Most of the food was mediocre Ordered Bo ssam- pork was dry and the sides were so small and not in proportion to the amount of meat given. Quality of sides were also whatever's Branzino- well cooked but nothing outstanding. But I did appreciate that they deboned it very well Mixed leaf salad- good, would get again if I ever came back Bings - the highlight of the meal and only reason I'd ever come back . Cultured butter and honey and the eggplant were both good. But again, dip to bread ratio is weird. Mushroom crispy rice was okay, a little too sweet Chocolate pot de crème- unique and has a Mayan chocolate taste, spicy! Too spicy in my opinion. Honey pie- okay but not that memorable. On top of the mediocre food and the long wait, I'd say service is very mediocre for the price point. The service staff were not very attentive and minimally polite. I'd expect this type of service at a casual restaurant, but expect a higher caliber of service for this place. The ambiance and decor inside was fine. read more

AMAZING! I will admit I was slightly worried coming here because it was just going to be me and my boyfriend and the menu looked like mostly shareables, but I was pleased to see that they offered a prix fixe menu for Valentine's Day! The menu included 5 courses with a total of 6 dishes, and each one was absolutely amazing. The first course was fried chicken with a 1oz tin of caviar, which I was surprised had NO supplemental cost. Definitely a good deal considering most other restaurants will have you pay extra if you want caviar included in your meal. Then we had oysters and tuna carpaccio; I'm always a fan of oysters, but the tuna was seasoned perfectly and was one of my favorites of the whole meal. Then we got 2 pieces of bing with 3 different dips, which was great because we got to try them all! We opted for the branzino for our main course and it blew me away. The crispy skin, the juicy flesh, and the delicious seasoning made it the highlight. Our dessert was alright in my opinion; we got the pavlova, but with the rest of the meal it was refreshing for the palate and left us with a satisfied feeling. I definitely recommend coming here with larger groups on regular days since their menu is mostly shareables and big entrees, but honestly, definitely come to try any of their food. It'll be worth it! read more

I had an open table reservation at 11am but arrived early at 10:45. I was forced to wait outside until they decided when we could go in. I needed to use the restroom really bad cause we drove down from Fontana, over an hour away. I was really confused as to why the yelp hours differed from the Open Table hours. Turns out the Yelp hours are more accurate. They did open a little after 11, but if you plan on driving down, it's best to book at 11:30 rather than at 11. Anyway, the place seemed clean and fresh. We ordered the bing bun basket and the steak and egg crispy rice. Both dishes were delicious. My favorite out of the 3 flavored spread was the black sugar and hazelnut spread. The rice was perfectly crispy yet buttery and soft inside. It was paired very well with the steak, eggs, and radish that they mix right in front of you at your seat. Besides the strange hours, I enjoyed everything overall. read more

We dined at Majordomo fir a special occasion. Made a reservation and preordered the beef ribs - which is the true 5 stars of the night! It's like a fusion between a classic steak and pastrami, but the meat was seasoned so well, so tender, would 100% order again! The rice with the meat scraps was equally delicious. I still think about this plate even a year later. Everything else we ordered was good and prepared well, but not something I would be urging to go back for. The tongue was really good but is only one piece, was quite pricey. I would personally skip the gem salad next time too. read more

My boyfriend surprised me with dinner at Majordomo for Valentine's Day last night! They offered a VDay special prix fixe menu as well as VDay à la carte menu, which we opted for. We started off with the Sakura Old Fashioned and After Hours (their espresso martini). Yum. We had the tuna carpaccio for our starter and the ricotta, jam, and chili crunch Bing. WOWWWWW. I am always going to crave that Bing. I'm going to have to make my own at home. So simple. So delish. For our main, we had the grilled Iberico pork, which came with charred gem lettuce. Then crispy potatoes for our side, which came with a chili, lemon mayo sauce. Everything was a 10/10. I would absolutely order all those dishes again, but looking forward to trying the other items on the menu as well. Service was nice, friendly, and attentive. Never felt like we had to flag anyone down. They switched out our plates when the main dish came out. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful with high ceilings. Nice art on the walls and pretty bar area. read more

We'v visited Majordōmo a while ago. We always visit momofuku in Vegas whenever we are in town. We made a reservation through sapphire reserve and got chef's counter which was fun to see the actions in the kitchen. We had a bottle of dry sake and ordered a few dishes to share. We decided on Hamachi collar, boiled chicken, mushroom crispy rice and grilled Bok choy. The food was very delicious in large portions. However it took 40 minutes or so for our appetizer to arrive. I'v never waited that long for an appetizer at any restaurant! Our waitress disappeared for a while so we had to ask the beverage lady to check on our order. At least the food was still fantastic so it was worth the wait I guess?! LMAO Hopefully next time we are here the service will improve! read more

Came here after bar hopping with the wife on a Saturday night. The place was very busy and loud so you don't have to worry about anyone listening to your conversation. Customer service by our server Daniel was excellent. Food was very good and my drinks were great but my wife's was just "meh". Place was decorated very nice. The only thing I didn't like was when I received the bill I noticed that there is a 3% charge for back of house. I'm assuming this is for health benefits or something. It is my belief that when you charge the prices this place charges they can afford to provide their workers the benefits they deserve. I'm not a fan of surprises and I did not see a sign anywhere letting everyone know they will be charged for this. I only took off a star for this reason and nothing to do with the service at all. Lots of free and paid parking available. read more

I was really excited to try the restaurant since I saw it on a show awhile back. The service was great, very attentive staff, utensils were clean. We ordered the bings with eggplant dip and butter, chili, and honey dip. The bings were very fluffy and warm, the dips were good but to me, missing some umph. The garlic noodles were too salty and oily, very al dente. Maybe use fried garlic? The hanger steak was cooked perfectly though, tender, slightly juicy, not sure if it was cuz the noodles were really salty, the steak taste less seasoned. The honey pie was pretty good, the crust needed to be a little flakier IMO. Stuffed peppers with sock sausage was a little too greasy and we could barely tell there was sausage in them. Maybe try steaming the peppers first to lock in the moisture and cook the sausage thoroughly before frying them? The little gem salad ...not sure about the fish roe cuz they were hard to pop in the mouth flavor was there but I was chasing for the fish roe in my mouth. read more

Went there for a friend's birthday and we had ordered the whole short rib in advance. Let me just tell you holy moly that was so good. So we had gotten two orders of the stuffed peppers, some of the bings and mushroom rice. And then the short rib came out with its goodies and more rice. The tenderness and deliciousness of the short rib. I'm still thinking about it. For six of us that was plenty of food and we were all very hungry. Everything tasted so wonderful. Service was great. There are two seating areas, outside and inside. The restaurant can feel a little loud but not bad. read more

Came here during Valentine's Day weekend and had a great experience. We opted to go Sunday because they don't offer their famous crispy mushroom rice and only have limited options on the Valentine's Day menu. Hamachi Crudo (5/5): refreshing and delicious. Chili Crunch Bing (5/5): a must order, their bing is so good! Pork (3/5): nothing special about this, just tastes like galbi in pork form but it was cooked well. Crispy Mushroom Rice (5/5): wowow so good, one of the best things we ate here. Stuffed Peppers (3/5): this was just okay to me. Overall I had a yummy dinner at Majordomo and the service was excellent even though they were busy for the holiday weekend. I'd recommend sitting inside for a nicer experience as the patio has more casual vibes. If you have a Sapphire Reserve card you can also use your $150 Open Table benefit here! Don't think I would pay $300 for the meal I had, but it was worth using my benefit. read more

It took me way too long to visit Majordomo as a local! Definitely come with a big group because the family style is the way to go! The gem salad, the bread and the pork shoulder bo ssam are amazing and the servers are super helpful if you're unsure of what to eat and what to try. I love that they also have local drink options like the oolog cream soda from Steep, their Chinatown neighbor! Yay for supporting local businesses! I've been to the Vegas Momofuku locations before and this is a good restaurant to try, especially on a beautiful weekend. Plenty of street parking around the restaurant. read more

Came here Sunday night with some friends. Pretty lively and crowded on a Sunday in a somewhat remote area. Overall 4/5: We ordered everything before 7pm but our grilled branzino took a long time to come out. We had to ask our waiter about it around 8pm and we didn't get it until close to 830pm Ordered: - Tuna carpacio 5/5: delicious, best dish of the night - macaroni & chickpea 3/5: decent but nothing special - grilled branzino 3/5: good but very small portion for the price - smoked bossam 5/5: very good, big portion, good sides. Gave us extra sides. - crispy potatoes 4/5: nice and crunchy Service 3/5: Good overall but our server (Daniel) wasn't the greatest. The support staff filled our waters and were around to clear the tables more than he was. We had to flag him down to get the check. When we gave him our credit cards to charge, he never brought back the cards and paper to sign. We had to waive him down after he walked past us several times... It was in his apron the entire time but he didn't bother to give it to us. read more

I've been wanting to try Majordomo for sometime, so was glad they were part of DineLA! It's kind of on the outskirts of downtown - and you might think where the heck am I - but inside what looks like a warehouse is a super chic restaurant. There is street parking and a $13 lot across the street/way. Things tried: - The stuff shisitos were so tasty! Never thought to stuff and fry shishitos, but it just worked. The sauce paired perfectly - Cucumber Salad was nice and refreshing. - Steak Ssäm flavored to perfection it was also cooked perfectly! Loved that they included shiso leaves to include in your lettuce wrap! - chocolate chip miso cookie was tasty. Not too sweet, which I liked, but it might have had a little too much baking soda. You can also order from the regular menu if you're still hungry. And definitely try the yuzu juice! It's not too tart and sooo refreshing! All in all it was a great meal! Staff were friendly. Beautiful atmosphere. Definitely would like to go back. read more

Majordomo - Bun Bing Bun Basket (3pc), corn pancakes, yuzu lemonade, half rack ribs - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

2 stars!!! Start with location... it's a no no, located in a run down street with nothing nearby but abandoned warehouses and graffiti... no it's not artsy or cute it's ghetto. Food pricing- ok I get it, the restaurant is by David Chang so he can charge more... it's actually not good or bad. For me, food is mid at best. Service was ok, not crazy amazing like how $$$$ restaurants usually are. We only ordered the bossam ($135) and corn pancake ($22) since it was just me, my husband, and our daughter. Nothing special here and the location/surrounding was a turn off. read more

Majordomo - Bossam - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I made an 8:30pm reservation since I was coming from pretty far and weekend traffic is usually brutal. Somehow the drive only took an hour instead of two, so we got to town around 7. I asked the hostess if there was any chance we could be seated early, and I'm really glad she said yes. Majordomo looks like an old warehouse from the outside, but once you're in, it feels polished and intentional. The space is industrial but warm, with murals and art everywhere, including the patio. It's lively without feeling chaotic. We were seated inside, and I had a great view of the kitchen, which was fun to watch throughout the night. Our server, Tomas, greeted us right away and walked us through the menu. We were there for DineLA, so we went with the prix fixe. The first dish was the mixed greens salad -- simple but really well done. The greens were crisp and fresh, and the yuzu dressing had this delicate, savory depth. We liked it so much we asked Tomas if he could find out what sauce the chef used. Next was the bing: soft and chewy with a crisp, pan-fried exterior, served with two spreads. The mushroom pâté with lemon thyme was smooth and subtle, nicely balanced and not overpowering. The caramelized kimchi and gouda, on the other hand, was bold and loud in the best way -- sweet, savory, and rich. Easily a must-order. For mains, we had the grilled dorade and the smoked prime rib. As soon as they hit the table, my friend and I looked at each other and realized we needed one more dish to tie everything together. We flagged down Tomas and asked if we could add the tapioca lo mein, even though he warned it might take 15-20 minutes. We said yes anyway... and somehow it showed up in about five minutes. Absolute magic. The dorade was deboned and sat on a lemon-thyme sauce with a bit of cream that came together beautifully once mixed. The skin was perfectly crisp, and the fish itself was tender and buttery. The smoked prime rib arrived on the rarer side, and as it rested, it turned into a perfect medium rare. It was incredibly tender with deep, savory flavor. I usually skip the fat, but not this time. The au jus had this subtle honey-ham note that weirdly reminded me of the Chinese chicken ham we used to eat during Lunar New Year when I was a kid -- an unexpected but welcome hit of nostalgia. The horseradish was mild and paired well without overpowering anything. And the tapioca lo mein -- wow. I ordered it almost as an afterthought because it was cheaper than the crispy rice, but it completely made the meal. One bite immediately reminded me of Filipino palabok, just elevated. It's not the same dish by any means, but the garlic, the krill, and the sauce hit in a similar way. A squeeze of lemon sealed the deal. I even told my friend to slurp the noodles instead of twirling them to get the full experience. For dessert, we had the citrus pavlova and the rice pudding. The rice pudding was the first bite I took -- comforting, light, and quietly amazing. The pavlova was bright, tangy, sweet, and a little powdery, with a firm meringue texture, almost like a lemon meringue pie with a twist. There's a citrusy, aromatic spice that gives this subtle tingly sensation. Both were great, but I knew I wanted to end with the rice pudding. The whole meal felt like a balance of flavors -- some soft and restrained, others bold and unapologetic. Everything worked together, and nothing felt forced. Huge shout-out to Tomas, who was a big part of what made this such a memorable experience. Definitely one for the books. read more

We took advantage of the Dine LA offering to try Majordomo for the first time. We made early reservations and found street parking easily. The restaurant is tucked away in an industrial area and can be a little difficult to find, but Google maps worked for me. Since it we early and not too busy, we were seated quickly and served right away. Our waiter and busboys were attentive and quick to remove dishes and refill water glasses. We selected Dine LA menu items and enjoyed a great meal! The set meal was well worth the money! read more

My 2nd Visit to Majordomo! I recently returned to Majordomo for my second visit and it continues to be one of the most unique dining spots on the edge of Chinatown. The Vibe & Space: The first thing you notice is the space--it's spacious, beautifully designed and has a great energy. Whether you're here for a date or a group dinner the aesthetic is top-notch and never feels cramped. Parking: Parking in this area can be tricky but you have two solid options: Valet (which is seamless) or hunting for Street Parking nearby. I'd recommend Valet if you're arriving during peak dinner hours. The Food & Drinks: Ricotta Jam & Chili: A total standout! We paired this with their signature Bing bread and the combination of creamy ricotta, sweet jam and that subtle chili kick was delicious. Little Gem Salad: Crisp, fresh, and exactly what we needed to balance the meal. It was a solid, well-executed starter. Boiled Chicken: This was the only "miss" for me this time. While the quality was there, it was a bit bland for my personal taste. It might be great for those who prefer very subtle flavors but I was looking for a bit more seasoning. Cocktails: Every single drink we ordered was phenomenal. The mixologists here really know their craft. From the balance to the presentation the cocktails are worth a visit alone. Overall: Even with the chicken being a little light on flavor, the atmosphere, service and drinks make Majordomo a winner. I'll definitely be back for more Bing and those incredible cocktails! read more

Outstanding meal! Second time here and just like the first, we really enjoyed every single thing we had. The Wagyu is cooked perfectly and melts in your mouth. Pair that with Crispy rice and you're in for a treat. This time around we decided to try the Bing with eggplant and it was delicious with a lemony flavor. We also had the ricotta and jam bing that we enjoyed the first time around. We added cauliflower and pumpkin sides and it was the perfect way to wrap up a meal. Place is super cute for a date night or fun night out with friends. Location feels a bit random however they have parking nearby that you can pay for ($13). Servers are friendly and helpful. read more

Majordomo was as much of an amazing experience as it was hyped to be. We ordered the short rib 24 hours in advance, and it was tender, delicious, and beautifully presented. The ssam and condiments made every bite amazing. The second meal with it-- the short rib fried rice-- was so delicious, but would've been even better with some egg. We ordered the charred bok choy, which had an amazing yogurt dressing, and the crispy potatoes, which were so flavorful and delicious that we added the bits of extra crispy potato into the short rib lettuce wraps. The bing (honey and butter) was a crowd pleaser for all of the carb lovers. Out of the entire meal, the only thing that didn't have a wow factor were the desserts-- we had the pie and chocolate pot de creme, and they were okay. Altogether a great experience, and I'd definitely recommend. read more

Finally came back after a few years, and it was still amazing! The menu was completely different, but everything we ordered was delicious. Our server was great and helped us make decisions on what to order while making suggestions. We decided to order the stuffed peppers, smoked bo ssam, crispy potatoes, and grilled bok choy. We were very happy with each dish! The stuffed peppers have a tempura batter and came with their house made buttermilk ranch. We really liked them and made for a yummy fried appetizer. The crispy potatoes came with a lemon mayo and had chili crisps on top, this was so good! The grilled bok choy had a yogurt sauce on it, this came to the table warm and perfectly charred. As for the main dish, the bo ssam is huge! It really can feed 4-6 or can feed 2 with meals for the rest of the week. It came with lettuce cups, rice, kimchi, pickled onions and carrots, a sauce, and ginger scallion toppings. The meat was so tender and the condiments complemented the pork really well. Overall we had a great date night and want to come back eventually. It's a little pricey but worth the splurge for a worthy occasion! read more

My boyfriend and I have been to several of Momofuku restaurants (Las Vegas, NYC, Toronto to name a few) and Majordomo did not disappoint. We shared the bing (honey & butter), mushroom rice, branzino, and crispy potatoes. I loved every dish and I want to come back to try the bossam. The fish was served at room temperature so that is the only (minor) complaint. The service was good too even though we just sat at the chef's counter. Since I'm Korean, it was easy for me to spot where the inspiration for the dishes came from. Like the bing & spread we had reminded me of a Korean dessert called hotteuk. There was a BOH charge on the bill. That's kind of annoying, just pay your back of the house staff a higher wage and include it in the cost of food. Even though it's normalized in the industry, type of stuff gives me a bad impression of the management. read more

Absolutely blown away by our experience here. Came to celebrate a birthday and decided to try/share various items on the menu. Get the bing, great way to start your meal with some flavorful bread that goes so well with their dips. It's almost like naan, but thicker, more substantial, great chewiness. The mushroom crispy rice is also a must. That was probably my favorite dish, so rich and homey, I definitely wanted more of this one. We also got the smoked bo saam, which for a group of 6, we could barely finish, it was way too much meat. But so tender, just melted right off. We had some additional sides and salad with seasonal fruits. But those three items definitely stole the show. Service was great. Checked in with us, gave great recommendations. The place itself seems to be randomly in an underdeveloped neighborhood, a bit hard to find. There's valet parking around the corner. read more

Fantastic place for brunch and staffs are very friendly ! I can't believe it took me long enough to finally try this spot. Cucumber salad, Bing Bun and smokes wings are hella good for appetizer. Pulled pork and prime rib sandwiches are melty. The buns are soft and won't cut the living life out of your mouth. We got honey pot for dessert which is not so sweet and delicious! Our server Sandy took excellent care of us and the manager is friendly. This is the kind of experience of a well managed restaurant ! This is definitely great place for dates, celebrations, or any other special occasions. read more
