    Fried mackerel with side dishes in top photo. Cold noodles in beef broth with side of steamed beef and leeks dumplings.
    Jenna K.

    If you ever want just fast but yummy food court Korean dishes - this is the place!! Crowded (it's Sunday), but clean - I ordered a combo noodle and Korean dumplings set for $16!!! Hubbs ordered a ginormous mackerel from Jin for $16!! What an economically delicious lunch, especially in this day and age!!! Service was swift and friendly and the side dishes were flavorful and plenty! Who needs fancy restaurants when Noodle Plus and Jin delivers 5+ star quality food!! Also - we decided to tip the two gentlemen who work tirelessly to clean up after the patrons quickly!!

    clam kalguksu with banchan :)

    There's outdoor dining now on the upper parking lot now! I haven't visited in a while. Back at home in San Francisco, I always crave a hearty bowl of kalguksu (hand-cut noodles), and this is my go-to spot when I'm in Ktown for the past several years. Finally got to sit down for my first review. I love to support family-run businesses, and the mother, father, and daughter always provide the best service. I was stoked when I found out they were open for outdoor dining. They bring the food in takeout containers so that you can bring your leftovers home. Highly recommended dishes: -mandu (handmade dumplings) -cold noodles with salmon sashimi (super fresh cuts!) -of course, kalguksu (clam, oyster, seafood combination) The kalguksu broth is very light and flavorful. The portions are very hearty and the banchan (side dishes) are great too! Thanks, Noodle Plus!

    Salmon Mixed Noodle
    Michelle C.

    Great service!! The people that are working there are really fast and super friendly! I order their Salmon Mixed Noodle for the first time ever and it tastes amazing and very fulfilling! I also order their Fishcake Soup that tastes really good, amazing, and fulfilling as well. I definitely will come back again for ordering more of their tasty food items from the menu to choose from because of their beautiful food presentation. Thank you all so much!!

    Snail mixed noodles $13.99 plus tax

    Humongous portion - best to be shared! I made the mistake of ordering their snail mixed noodle for myself. Way too much of the same thing in one meal. I got tired of the texture and flavor 1/3 mark in. Mountain worth of soba noodles + julienned mixed veggies, but a sprinkle of snail pieces - yes a lot of veggies and noodles but not sure it was worth $15? The flavor wasn't exactly unique. I was given container of generic red pepper paste to add on my own. In addition, it took them forever to have my order ready despite being the only customer. My husband was half way through his giant Tonkatsu platter from the adjacent counter before i saw any signs of my order being assembled. Overall - snail mixed noodles? Glad I gave it a try since I have never seen it served elsewhere in ktown but don't think I would get it again.

    soba noodles
    Anabell C.

    I had their cold soba noodles. It had 3 mounds of noodles, grated daikon, green onions, yellow pickled radish, and the broth. It was super filling and ~$14!

    Where is the kimchi in this supposed "kimchi dumpling"?

    DO NOT EAT HERE. We ordered 떡만두국 and the dumpling fillings were rotten. We told the ladies working there and they said it's kimchi mandu and that's the way it's supposed to taste. Do y'all see any kimchi in this filling?? Cuz we don't, and it smelled rotten. When we first got the order, they had added no salt and instead of apologizing they reprimanded the cook in front of us and shoved some salt into our hands.

    Kimchi kalguksu
    Karen K.

    Pros: -Big portions -Korean banchan (side dishes) included, of course. Kimchi is solid, here -I don't really like Kalguksu (knife noodle) that much, but the Kalguksu here is yummy. I got the Kimchi Kalguksu Cons: -Sashimi Noodle Salad doesn't taste that great. The sauce is not balanced. I think it is a bit too acidic and not spicy enough. Needs more gochujang (red pepper paste) and chan geerum (sesame seed oil).

    Clam noodle soup. It's cleanly delicious. Even side dish are very good too. I will be visit this place again

    Delicious
    Jay P.

    Just ate a very satisfying round of banchan, korean fried chicken, chol myun and cold noodles. Someone left a one star review griping about fruit on soba noodles but they clearly shouldn't be reviewing if they can't identify the noodle type properly. Overall, great fast casual Korean place. I will be returning.

    Sorry, I dug in before thinking to take a photo. Not the most flattering picture, but this Sprouts Mixed Rice bowl is so yum!
    Becky K.

    This is my favorite spot at the Koreatown Galleria food court. That's saying a lot considering this food court touts many strong options like the popular pork cutlet place in just the next stall over. The vaguely named Noodle Plus is my favorite for good comfort food in the most purely Korean way. The best way I know how to describe their food is that their food tastes clean. So to explain... Korean food is often regarded as generally healthy. It's true that compared to common American food court fare, yes it's healthier but among Koreans, some things like bulgogi and even some type of soups are considered splurge meals due to its high fat or sodium and spice content and it's never considered a healthy diet to be eating these things every day. Noodle Plus is food that you could find at home but far more spruced up. Like if you had a beautiful apron-clad health-conscious Korean lady for a mom with some serious home-cooking chops, just chop-chopping away in her pristine kitchen making meals for you.. this is the food she might be churning out. My favorite menu item so far is their Sprouts Mixed Rice. So like their restaurant name, it doesn't sound very exciting but trust me, this is a showstopper dish because it is a mixed rice bowl that comes still sizzling in a stone pot with a nice oozy egg yolk that gets cooked when you mix the rice up turning it into this creamy texture that is perfect. The rice is topped with bean sprouts along with other nice veggies but it also contains a good amount of seasoned ground beef. While mixing, I also spied some chickpeas in there like mom was trying to sneak a little something extra healthy but I didn't even mind because it really worked. And don't forget to douse the bowl with the small tub of their special soy sauce to taste before you mix everything up, and do the mixing fairly soon. You want the rice at the bottom to crisp up a bit so that when you mix everything you get this unbelievable texture with the occasional crunch, but of course, you don't want anything to burn. So let it sizzle a bit, then pour in that soy sauce mixture and mix away before enjoying. It's just the perfect thing to have when you feel like treating your body well but you want it to taste amazing too. Each of their dishes come with around 3 side dishes that change up every so often, and a little bowl of soup. Because I love the sprouts mixed rice so much, I didn't try anything else yet but wow I saw some things other people we're ordering and they looked amazing, like a noodle dish with yulmu kimchi (radish stem kimchi) which is a perfect summer dish or just something to have when you want something light. I love that sort of food, fresh vibrant and clean flavors. I actually think this may have been a temporary special because I didn't see it on the menu before and instead was on a poster separate from the main menu. I know restaurants sometimes have a nice seasonal ingredient that they want to integrate into the menu but only just until that ingredient is at its best. I'm guessing that's what happened here. I highly, highly recommend trying this place out. The restaurant name and the look of the stall is very unassuming but their food speaks for itself. It's so unassuming that I always forget which stall I got my favorite sprouts mixed rice from and I end up chatting with all the ladies in each stall to find it again. This review is kind of a way to remind myself which stall it was, like leaving a breadcrumb trail. I figured my fellow Yelpers could benefit as well :)

    Spicy seafood soup and salmon sashimi cold noodle were really good!! I do recommend them!!
    Hyo L.

    This is my favorite food in LA and I love the salmon sashimi cold noodle, spicy seafoods soup, steam korean dumpling and fried vegetables. I do also recommend the seafood noodle soups, called kalguksoo, that's really good. Thank you!!

We were able to order in the line, and got our food within 10 minutes once we finally sat down. I tried their handmade clam kalgusku soup and beef bulgogi. Both portions were generous. The kalguksu was incredible comforting, with chewy, long, freshly made noodles in a rich, savory broth that was packed with clams. The beef bulgogi was also delicious. It came with a side of salad and rice. The bulgogi was tender, well-merinated, and paired well together with the sides.

The bossam was amazing! The best we've tasted. We all loved the perilla seed kalguksu due to its taste and also bc it's so healthy for you. The owner came by to check how we liked the galbi kalguksu since it was a newly created dish and we told her that it was delicious, seasoned just right. Before the meal, as they brought out the side dishes, they brought out barley rice with denjang on top to mix with yeol-moo kimchi. That was a special touch. We absolutely loved the food there. I saved the info so that we can return when we visit Koreatown again in the near future. Highly recommend this place to anyone who craves exceptional Korean food.

They have a valet parking system of sorts but we didn't pay, we self parked. The attendant told us we were fine. It was approx 9pm when we arrived and also a week night. I have no idea how much valet parking is here. We were a small party of two. Upon arrival, we were notified they were out of RICE. Um..what??

If you're searching for some of the city's best pork, then those in the know will bring up Ham Ji Park. For 2 decades, generous platters of pork ribs and pork neck stew decked every table. Now, our Korean friends lament the loss of their favorite pork joint in the city. The Koreatown proper location is located in the Royal Plaza mini-mall, just a few blocks off bustling Wilshire. Discounted parking is available in a lot across the street from the Chevron gas station. From the street, the entrance is flanked by potted plants and an enclosed street-ery. Inside, stainless steel chairs are pressed up against wooden tables, each outfitted with a metal grill. Oppressive fluorescent lighting shines down on the stone grey walls, which are left undecorated apart from a few flatscreens. Multi-lingual chatter blends with the sizzle of platters. I visited with some friends for a weeknight dinner, and about half of the tables were occupied. We shared a spread of grilled platters and sizzling soups. The meal began with a carafe of barley tea and a mostly standard spread of banchan. Across our food, the best dish was the signature Charbroiled Pork Spare Rib. The ribs were flavorful without feeling gamey, and the meat was complemented by sweet caramelized onions. The pork ribs handily outdid the good-not-great Charbroiled Beef Short Rib. Lastly, the Milt and Cod Rose with Vegetables stew was fishy and briny, appropriately flavored for the Korean palate. The service was appropriately attentive, although I would've appreciated more intentional refills of our banchan ramikens. The rib plates cost upward of $35 each, while the soup was just under $30. The portions were hearty; a single entree platter could reasonably feed 2 moderately hungry bellies. It's a shame to hear that Ham Ji Park has closed; I'm kicking myself for not trying their pork neck stew earlier.
