Very fresh, very crispy fried chicken wings. A plethora of side dish selections and kimbap options. So many banh chan! Sesame spinach, roe side dish, kim chi, bean sprouts, radish, cucumber, chives, and more. Clean store and nice welcoming staff. No tables to dine like they previous had years ago. It's a stop and pick up shop. So many good quick options and lunch boxes to choose. Will be coming back to chekc out other items!!

Oh Mama Kitchen is a small catering and to-go spot offering a wide variety of Korean soul foods, such as 전, 김밥, 만두, and assorted side dishes perfect for busy people looking for comforting, home-style meals. Tucked into a modest retail space, it happens to be one of my sister's favorite places. They prepare many delicious dishes in ready-to-go boxes, making it easy and convenient to enjoy authentic Korean flavors. It's easy to see why this place is quickly gaining popularity.

- first timer - ordered the odeng $4, for tteobokki $6 (counter), and spam kimchi $7 (counter) - no tax - odeng - i liked it a lot. it after eating at so many places, i noticed it's more homemade making the soup more enjoyable and delicious. they have about 4 fish cake slices - tteobokki - not too spicy nor sweet. i like the thick sauce and the flavor is really good that makes you want to keep eating. - spam kimchi - really refreshing snack! crunchy and sesame oil is not overpowering i saw some reviews about the cashier employee being rude. although we didn't get that feeling from her, she wasn't customer service nice (like smiling or welcoming) but i think she just was expressing she needed to do her job. would return and try other things!

WE PAID FOR THE DONKATSU AND WE NEVER GOT IT. WHEN WE CALLED THEM THEY ARE LIKE YOU SHOULD HAVE CHECKED THE BAG

Horrible customer service. We paid for our food and we never got the Dongaseu. They are like we should have checked the bag before you have left!

I found this place searching for Korean food around the area. I was pleasantly surprised to see all the selections of banchans they had. Foods I've tried: - Spam kimbap - Beansprouts & Spinach - Spicy fishcakes - Crab cakes - Wild grain purple rice Overall, everything was tasty. I want to try their fishcake soup and tteokbokki next time I go! Cashier was nice and asked if I needed help with anything. The total at the end does add up quickly if you don't look at the prices!

Great grab and go Korean food spot Tucked in a little shopping center. They have everything here from kimbaps to duboki to a variety of banchans You walk in and you see all the workers making and packing everything at hand. I'm so glad there was a worker here that spoke English. And explained what everything was. Overall highly recommend if you're in the area

It was our first time here and so we tried a little of everything - kimbap, oden soup, spicy rice cakes and chicken wings! Easy comfort food with great service! I highly recommend the original wings - super flavorful and crunchy! The banchan looked really fresh and colorful. For a small hole in the wall, there was a surprising constant stream of locals coming in to buy the prepared banchan. We can't wait to come back again on our next Korean grocery run to La Habra. read more

Beyond what the other Yelpers have recommended for food selection, the one item that really stood out for me was their chicken wings. Very tender and they had a good taste! Not overcooked or dried out. I ordered them plain so I could taste the meat w/o any interference from all that sauce BS. The coating is a medium dusting of flour, very crispy. The other factor that earns Oh Mama a (5) star rating was the very friendly excellent service. I was only waiting for my wings and started my sushi and then the counter girl Sarah served my condiments and preparing them for me. Thank you so much! Will be returning again maybe for a larger party order. Keep it Up and great job! read more

Quaint little place with a really sweet cashier. Got their Saturday special of vermacille (which they heat up for you), spicy calamari, and 12 piece chicken wing (half original and half sauced). The cashier gave us some radish and iced water pretty quickly after we took a sear. We came in at 3 and the lighting was perfect for a romantic date. The music is not too loud so you can actually talk. Overall nice vibes. There are only 4 tables though: two with 4 seats and two with 2 seats. Vermacille: 4/5 Spicy clamari: 5/5 Chicken: 3/5, breading was very thick and had a heavy masala/turmeric taste read more

They really have good side dishes and if you want they sell individual plastic containers of ban-Chans (Korean side dishes)... It was tasty! This place would definitely be great to cater for large events such as weddings, birthday parties, DohL (first birthday), and any celebration you can think of.

I did end up trying the lomo saltado with another protein (filet) and it was excellent. The meat was so tender and flavorful. I also discovered that you can get free noodles if you're still hungry for your pho, which I have opted to do a few times when I just want one (or two) more bites. The other thing is that it does get super busy during peak time, so I would definitely try to check in when you're closer to the restaurant and maybe run an errand or two if it the wait is long.

The interior is clean, newly built, and has a modern Korean hanok-style look. The servers were also friendly both times, so I didn't have any issues with the service or atmosphere. Unfortunately, the main problem for me was the food. I've eaten at the LA location before and never really thought the food tasted bad there, but at this Buena Park location, both visits gave me the impression that the food didn't taste as fresh as it should. On my most recent visit, I ordered the soondae gukbap, and the soondae had an unpleasant off smell and didn't taste very fresh. It almost tasted like it had been sitting for a while. On my first visit, I tried the regular pork gukbap, and the pork flavor was also stronger than I personally prefer. I do tend to like cleaner-tasting gukbap, but this stood out to me because I don't remember having the same issue at the LA location. After the first visit, I thought maybe it was just an off day since the restaurant was still new. But after having a similar impression on my second visit, I'm not sure if this location is consistent yet. The space is nice and the service was good, but for a gukbap restaurant, the food has to be the main reason to come back. Based on my two visits, this location was disappointing for me.

My partner and I stopped by for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. We were able to be seated right away…read more We ordered the premium gomtang and the yukgaejang. I will say the service is pretty slow, I'd keep that in mind especially if you're looking for a quick meal. I will say there's about 1.5 people working the front with 12 tables, so it would probably have been better if they had 2 people dedicated to the front. Both soups were good! The menu was a little difficult to tell what the difference between the options were. I wasn't sure what really went into the premium gomtang aside from the fact that it was a combo of meats. I will say that mine was very tendon heavy, so if that's not your preference, I'd lean away from the premium gomtang. My partner liked his yukgaejang. The banchan was good, but I did feel like the kimchi was purposefully on the saltier side as to complement the gomtang. Overall, solid place and would return.

We were craving Korean food, searched Yelp and this popped up. What a fantastic find. Servings are generous and we ate left-overs the next day and it still tasted great!

The lady owner was the only server/busser on a busy Sunday and she hustled back & forth. Highly recommended!

I heard that the owner makes everything in-house, and you can really tell how much care and skill go into the food. The staff are also incredibly kind and welcoming every time I visit. Galbitang (Beef Short Rib Soup) - This is honestly the best galbitang I've had in both OC and LA. The broth is rich and flavorful, and the beef is always fresh and tender. Whenever I'm craving galbitang in the OC/LA area, this is the only place I go. Yukgaejang (Spicy Beef Soup) - The amount of ingredients they give you is amazing. I've had it both dining in and as takeout, and it's consistently delicious every single time. It's perfectly seasoned, and has just the right level of spice. As much as I love the galbitang, I think I actually enjoy the yukgaejang even more. Pork Cutlet (Donkatsu) - This place is known for its galbitang and seolleongtang, so I wasn't expecting much from the donkatsu... but why is it this good? The cabbage salad dressing that comes on the side is seriously addictive. The portion size is huge, there's no way I could finish it by myself. It has the crispy texture of Japanese katsu, while still having a great pork flavor of its own. I honestly think this could be considered one of their signature dishes. If you're looking for authentic Korean comfort food with generous portions and warm service, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I'll definitely keep coming back!

I've tried their signature The Melrose, which consists of black forest ham, oven roasted turkey, bacon, melted White American cheese, topped with house slaw (lettuce, red onions, pepperoncini tossed in their "Melrose" spread) and tomato. I absolutely love this sandwich!! It's packed with so much flavor, and the bun absorbs all of the juicy goodness, making every bite incredibly satisfying. Runner-up for me is the Uncle Nikki. This one has Genoa salami, pepperoni, capicola, provolone cheese, also topped with their house slaw. I've only ordered from here through Postmates, and every time their packaging is excellent--they wrap each sandwich in this cute wrapper, which adds a fun touch and keeps everything neatly intact and fresh by the time it arrives. Each sandwich is around $12 (as of June 2026), and I honestly think it's worth the price because these sandwiches are huge and so good!!

Krunch Burger

Barely moved to Whittier about a month ago , and seen all the good reviews about Krunch Burger so I…read moredecided to see for myself. I kinda had low expectations because I've always assumed smash burgers were going to be a thin burger that would not fill you up.... Boy was I wrong. I went in 30 mins before closing on Saturday and there weren't that many people so I kinda was nervous. The young Asian girl at the front was very kind and was answering all the questions I had and what kind of combinations were possible. I ended up getting a double smash burger (added some grilled onions) with bacon and jalapeños w/ crunch fries and a butterfinger milkshake (I got a big appetite lol) . The for the crunch fries you're required to pick two different dipping sauces and my gosh there were so many different options that sounded so appetizing that I didn't know which ones to pick, I ended up just getting the classic Krunch Islands (thousand islands sauce) and the garlic aioli. Picking up the burger I knew this wasn't no regular skinny patty smash burger..... this bad boy had some weight to it and it sure wasn't the toppings. The burger was immaculate, filling and overall worth the price. The only downside was the cheese not really a fan of processed cheese but that's just my opinion.... And I still ended up loving it. The Krunch fries were spot on exactly what I was thinking it would be. The butterfinger milkshake immaculate as well. Words can't describe it And the thing that I pointed out from the burger was the pickles. Those pickles are not joke they really go beyond with there house based pickles. Will definitely be coming back to this spot.

Honestly so good and everything made fresh to order! The woman who rang me up was so lovely and…read moretalked about their different in home sauces. She mentioned how they make their own pickles and grated their own cheese right off the block. Sat at the bar with view of the cooking and assembly process, each step looked like it was made with care. The fries, omg these fries were superb!!! The perfect texture and crunch, hot out of the fryer and well seasoned. From all the pictures of the krunch burger I was a little skeptical thinking how greasy and oily it must be. But I was so surprised that it wasn't! Despite the smashed grilled cheese skirt it didn't otherwise feel like biting into a layer of grease. Had it with jalapeños which are a must! Its a fairly heavy meal so I wouldn't say eat this daily but for a treat-yo-self kind of burger experience this spot is it!!

I've been hearing a lot about Oh Mama Kitchen, so I finally decided to check it out. I ordered the California roll and the bulgogi kimbap, and both dishes definitely lived up to the hype. The California roll was fresh and well-balanced, with just the right amount of crab and avocado. It was light yet satisfying. The bulgogi kimbap was a standout for me--the seasoned beef was tender, and the flavors really came together in a way that made it both savory and comforting. The service was friendly and efficient. My food came out quickly, and the staff seemed genuinely attentive without hovering. The ambience is cozy with a laid-back vibe that makes it a great spot for a casual meal or takeout. It has a modern yet welcoming feel, perfect for grabbing a quick bite! I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu and recommend it if you're in the area looking for a solid meal with good vibes. read more

If you're looking for mom's homemade cooking, this is the place to go. They have a wide range of delicious korean side dishes and really yummy fried chicken. Their rolls are great to pick up if you're in a hurry or looking for a nice picnic snack. Different from store-bought side dishes and lunches, oh mama kitchen's food is authentic and you know there aren't any hidden ingredients to worry about. If you're ever in the area-or even if you aren't, check this place out! read more

Oh Mama Kitchen truly has the best Korean Kimbap in town! Every time I visit, I make sure to get their Tuna Kimbap, which never disappoints.

Delicious tteokbokki, pickled cucumbers, and the pickled radish is actually perfect. I forgot to grab some but it comes as a side with the chicken wings (reportedly also amazing) and I could eat a pound of that radish alone. Quick, courteous staff, social distancing in place and everyone wears masks. I will be back even if just to get the radish. It's all I can think about. read more
