Overpriced and horrible.. I thought it was going to be super good cause of pricing but it was the worst i ever had. Do not try the orange chicken.. as a matter of fact dont try this place at all She also asked for a tip which was very weird. I didnt like anything provided to me why should I tip? She then yelled at me in Korean as id I would understand.. read more

Wow, these are some of the rudest people I've had the displeasure of ordering food from. I ordered 2 small appetizers from GrubHub, not only did the driver refuse to actually bring me the food after I specifically told him I was on a conference call and could not come down but he proceeded to call me again calling me "bitchy" and threatening to just keep the food I paid for. I had run downstairs and look for his guy outside. I tried to call the restaurant where they just hung up on me. I hope these people go out of business. DON'T ORDER FROM HERE! read more

THE BEST bunshik we have ever had. We have been going to Jjangbunshik in Buena Park, but this place is more Korean authentic. This place brought us back the memory of having bunshik in front of middle/high school in Korea. Their rice cake was sooo chewy. I've been on good keto diet for weeks without having to cheat but after having a bite of this rice cake, I realized I was torturing myself if I didn't continue eating it. Even if this restaurant is probably not a well known place for bunshik, and we live in Chino Hills, we will return to this place when we crave ttokbokee read more

This is for my online order, so I am not sure if they adjusted the price only for apps or they adjusted for in store too. So..just want to update my review for this restaurant. They adjusted the price to their food. The two items that I order the most is their short rib soup and braised short rib. The soup dropped a few cent. It was $15.99 to $15.50. The braised short rib was $24.99 and now it's $29.00. There use to be side dishes such as kimchi and etc. It use to come with all meals like all other Korean restaurant. Now you actually have to pay for anything you want to. Honestly the taste of their food is not too bad. The soup is comfort food to me, but now I definitely have to find a new restaurant to order from since I usually order Korean food for these side dishes. read more

Namsan is located in a strip mall with several other restaurants. Originally, my friends and I intended on going to another restaurant in the strip that was very busy. Namsan was empty so my expectations weren't super high honestly. We ordered the toppokki with chewy noodles and spam. The sauce was the right amount of spice and thickness and oh so delicious. I was surprised by how generous the portion was too. The bulgogi gimbap, banchans, and bone broth ramen were also very flavorful. The service there was very quick. The waitress was very friendly and gave us recommendations on pairing the gimbap with the sauce from the toppokki. For the amount of food that we got, I thought the prices were very affordable. I'm very happy that I stumbled across this restaurant and will be back next time I'm in the area. read more

Open for two months, this korean restaurant has really nice service and english speaking staff. I like the menu, not overwhelming and is also quite varied. Includes lots of chicken dishes, a tasty bibimbap, dessert, fresh fruit juice, coffee drinks, tea, smoothies and shaved ice, $8. Free coffee or iced coffee drink with entree order, about $10. The radishes and pickles were fresh and tasty. Located in a mini mall, right next to the famous Mapo Restaurant on the northwest corner at 6th and Normandie. Limited time offer, morning lunch special, 5 am to 3 pm, $5.99. Open 24/7, free delivery, 4.5 stars rounded down. read more

This place is so bad it deserves to get shut down. My wife ordered food for delivery and they specifically said they delivered to where we were at. The delivery guy comes and complains to us "the customer" that it took him 40 min in traffic to get to us. REALLY?!!!! Probably the rudest customer service in all of Korea town. I almost wanted to slap the guy in the face!!!! He said "next time don't order like this" LIKE WHAT?!!! I guess this place does not want business. He should shave told us that he did not deliver here in the first place. The worst part is that he had the audacity to ask for a tip! Smh. I would pay people not to go to this place. Reconsider before ordering or dining here, and think about it again. read more

I was looking for some good Korean food to try, and found Namsan on Yelp. Decided to drop by, and I ordered the Bulgogi Kimbap + Ttokbokki combo. Jin helped me--he was very, very kind and quick to help--and he even offered to give me a side of kimchi or bean sprout soup! The food smells delicious, and I cannot wait to eat it! Thank you Jin! read more

I used to come here all the time since its literally few blocks away and it was open 24 hours. I think there has been a change in store hours since then though. Alot of people seem to get delivery from here seeing as everytime that Im here, no matter the day or time, I always see them packing to go containers into a bags for the delivery guy. I THINK its free delivery, but not sure everything is practically in Korean.. -_____- I normally get their om rice and their Spicy chicken wings.. mmmm everything else is pretty mediocre. Some stuff is pretty bland compared to all the other koreatown restaurants. They do have alot of side dishes, about 6-7 I would say, definitely nothing wrong with that. I love my banchan(side dishes).... mmm...yumm... The korean ahjummas are very nice, and not cause they threw in a kimbap as a side dish one time .. hmm how nice of then though :) Butt... they do have a stamp card now...........also in korean...sooo...cant really tell what it says. They have a little early menu/breakfast special. If im not mistaken it was $5.99 for each dish. Not bad considering the portion is exactly the same as the regular priced one, and pretty damn big at that. Well thanks for tuning in, until next time folks :P read more

The Price is good approximately ranges from $8-15 bucks which isn't too bad depends on how much you want to eat. The food portions are very very good. You will be full and they give you a lot of condiments mainly Kimchee though. Customer Service is very very poor, it was not like this before a while back, but now since they serve their restaurant throughout 24/7, the quality of the business has gone down tremendously. This is very unfortunate because it used to be my favorite place to go! I don't mind coming here for fast korean food with decent poritions in the middle of the night when there's no place opened, but I would not come here for fun or pleasure. Although I was Korean, they kept confusing me to be American LOL. It's kind of funny sometimes, but what can you do. Parking is alright. You can park there at times and certain hours it's valet. Parking around the streets isn't too bad around here, but be weary of the signs, don't just park anywhere. read more

i completely 100% absolutely recommend the galbi jjim!! it was srsly way too good and beyond my expectations! take my word for it when i say it was soooo juicy, tender (not dry at all) and the sauce it was in was like the perfect amount of sweet and soy! they also include rice cakes in the fish that went soooo well with the galbi jjim i barely touched my rice! i can't wait to go back to get it again :) read more

After a tasty, but pricey and non filling kale and asparagus pizza from the Urban Oven, we get back to Ktown and are hungry again. The booths and other food trucks look appetizing, but we know we'll get a better deal if we go to a real restaurant. Anyway, we shared naengmyun and an order of kimbap...go here for the kimbap it's fresh, the rice is soft, the veggies are crunchy sooo good. Naengmyun was fine. I don't like when they put daedagi in it. I like the plain tangy broth better. I liked the banchan...I didn't see anything weird go down and I didn't yelp this place, so I didn't see my trusted Seung Eun's review til now! That is def gross and unacceptable :( I'd consider going and picking up kimbap here again though. read more

Little cafe spot, clean, simple & right in the middle of Koreatown. They offer variety of juice drinks, coffee & teas. They also offer plenty of lunch special for $5.99 & variety of yummy traditional Korean dishes. We had Bulgogi beef, Seafood stew, & Omelett fried rice, all the dishes were all tasty & generous portions. Our lunch was $32, plenty food togo for later! read more

Free sidedishes, kimbap, and coffee. What can be better than that? Open super late with cheap korean food, it basically feels like you are back in Korea. My friend got the kimche fried rice and I got the mul naemyeong (cold noodles). The lady that works there is super nice, always asking if we need anything! They charge if you get a 2nd box so just a fyi. Parking is $2 read more

Another small family owned restaurant in Koreatown that serves a large variety of Korean food with very inexpensive prices to match. It's in a small cul-de-sac sharing the parking lot with a couple other restaurants and a karaoke bar. Parking can be pretty tight but they have a free valet available. The inside is nice but small, it seats about 10 tables. Service is fine, but they hardly speak any English so you may be in for a difficult time trying to ask for special instructions. The banchan is quite good here, it was very fresh and tasty, but the big surprise was the free Korean kimbap - which is like a California roll but with ground beef and spinach instead of krab. The food was really good, and the value is very high. For the low prices you get quite a bit of food, which is cooked really well. The pork I ordered was really tender and also came with a bowl of rice. The menu is pretty big with a lot of variety. It's like going over to year auntie or grandparent's house, they seem very excited to have you over for company. Because it's pretty tiny though, you tend to get drowned out by conversation from the next tables over, especially with young, loud people talking over each other. Otherwise, it's a place I'd go back. Also, they're open pretty late! read more

I was overjoyed to find this gem at 4:00 am as this restaurant has a friendly staff, clean atmosphere, and a wide selection of delicious food! I ordered Spicy Pork, Kalbi Kimbap, Manduu, and Deokbokki. I know, it's a lot of food, but as this was my first time here, I wanted to get an idea as to how everything tastes and level of spice for their dishes. And all of this for $38 ($48 including tip) this clearly is a great deal for those hunger cravings! I will definitely return much sooner to enjoy more dishes and their wonderful ban chan. Oh, and the rice was perfectly cooked! To note they have free delivery within Koreatown for those of you who wish to place an order for delivery. read more

I'm angry that Yelp doesn't have the choice for 0 star. I feel like this restaurant DOES NOT DESERVE EVEN A STAR at all. Ordered via postmate and I am so shocked that places like this can survive at Ktown: 1. Kimchi fried rice Honestly the most awful one I ever had at Ktown. They charge money for egg and cheese (unbelievable, I never see this in any other restaurant) . Egg is very small, and cheese is only a single layer. Rice tastes bad. 2. Beef and bone broth soup One can hardly imagine how awful soup can be. Soup tastes plain like water, beef tastes like paper. Another point is that they charge money for side dishes like fish cake and potato salad. Never seen this in any other restaurants at Ktown. This restaurant does not deserve a spot at Ktown. Never give it a try! read more

Our go to boonshik korean food. They have the best food. We normally get Kimbap, mandoo, donkatsu, ttukbokki, soondae (for hubby not me), and even chicken stew. They are so nice and respectful. I really like to patron this restaurant. Over the years, while I get my hair and make up done, or midnight snack, etc., we call Namsan for delivery. Last year, we went to the singing room next door and ordered food for 20 people once. The best ramen I ever had in my life! My husband and I still talk about it. Too bad we can't get it delivered. We really appreciate them delivering. Thank you!! read more

I wish there is 'O' star on the review. One star isn't even worth it. There were dozens of fruit flies in the soup. This means they don't even wash vegetables when they make foods. It happened couple years ago at that time i didn't know about Yelp so i just warned people around me and i never go back to Namsan. It was really disgusting and they denied that those are fruit flies but later on they admitted it and just said 'sorry'. That was it!!! They are absolutely not qualified running a restaurant. I'm so regret that i didn't have them eat that fly soup in front of me at that time!!! read more

Stumbled upon this restaurant on Sunday as we didn't feel like eating at City Center's food court for quick Korean. We opted for the Udon combo + Galbi Kimbap ($9.99) and spicy arrowroot noodle ($7.99). The noodle was on the sweeter side and uber spicy but that didn't stop me from finishing the entire bowl. I did manage to not eat the big chunks of ice. Supposedly they give you free coffee, but that wasn't offered and we weren't sure if we needed to ask. It's very casual, small, but they offer over 80 kinds of popular Korean dishes. Don't know where the 'fusion' part of their name comes in as I didn't know anything fusion except for a sandwich but that's not really fusion either! They have some great weekday lunch specials. Will be back! read more

The parking lot is cramped but there's valet. This place is solid to eat at and get delivery from. They offer a variety of "boonshik" (korean version of fast food) dishes. I've tried their boolgogi kimbap, omrice, and a few others and nothing was overly disappointed. Nothing really stood out either. So if you consider the cheap price, variety of choices, and edible food, Its a solid 3+ stars. read more

Perfect place for some korean comfort food. Food taste very homemade .. mamas style type of food. The lady at the cashier (also server) is super sweet and friendly. Probably one of the nicest servers I've ever experienced (especially in ktown). Their side dishes are yummy and they give around 7 side dishes. The cook who's an older lady also gave us a plate of kimbap on the house for no reason! They have a 2nd menu with list of food that's really cheap ($6?)... kind of like a happy hour price except it's 247. They also deliver around ktown. Came here multiple times but I've never had complaints about their food. Everything tastes really good and homey.. they have literally every kind of korean dish here. Parking sucks but I think the parking lot across opens at certain times. read more

I've been frequenting this restaurant a lot since I moved into Ktown. It's been a real life saver. I've called and ordered food on my way home from work, to work, and after a night of drinking. They offer every type of korean dish. It's like ten different korean restaurants combined in one. Portions are huge. I personally haven't used their delivery service, but quite frankly a bit scared to use it. On multiple occasions, I have heard the delivery man cursing furiously over the phone over a complicated or failed delivery trip. Maybe it was a drunk delivery order, given the time of day it was, but still a bit frightening lol. If you're a normal customer like me, the workers here are extremely friendly. Dishes I've tried that I've enjoyed: Ramen dukbokki- Portion is huge. Kimchi jigae- this tasted better when I reheated it the next day Dak tori tang Kimchi fried rice Soon tofu Jjol myun- good but too spicy! Bibimbap- my favorite dish here Love the variety of food they serve here and service is fast. read more

We got out of Korean Music Festival with a hankering for some good ol' Korean food, and after finding out that first choice Cafe Sanjang doesn't take minors (I guess especially late at night), we just drove around k-town pretty much aimlessly looking for a place to eat, and then we spotted this teeny-tiny strip mall with a packed, bumper-to-bumper stacked parking lot. The Korean bbq place a few doors down was full and nobody even attempted to accommodate us, so we went over to Restaurant Namsan Fusion Cafe where we were greeted warmly and seated right away. The place is clean, bright, and just perfect for a group of hungry teens and grownups. Their menu is varied, from ramen and kimbap to curry bulgogi, soups, and all kinds of flavored coffee, tea and smoothies. Spam kimchi fried rice was not on the menu but they made it for us, as well as bibimbap. Food presentation was fabulous - I wasn't expecting that from a cafe-style joint. Servings were generous, and service was very friendly and helpful. All in all for a party of six, our bill was a decent $67. Cool little place! read more

Do not. I repeat, DO NOT order from this restaurant. Whenever I eat food from here I always end up getting crazy runs that last entire day.

There are plenty of other restaurants that serve better, clean foods. read more

I order consistently and I love it. I get the Organic Tofu Stew (great portion) and Kimibop, so so so tasty! Highly recommend
