    Chicken bowl and brown rice
    Richard O.

    It's a good fast casual restaurant. I liked my chicken bowl but it's not as good as other reviews described. They do have brown rice.

    Spicy Pork Bulgogi Bowl
    Cherise W.

    Located in the food mall downtown. So it's get your food and find a seat. Service was perfect. Friendly staff. Food was ready quick and was hot. Cucumbers were crispy and had a sesame flavor. The spicy pork was good as well. Would come back

    Bulgogi with noodles
    Monica H.

    This is a quick service counter restaurant located within the Fig at 7 food court on the bottom level. The menu is simple. Choose a protein and rice, noodles, etc., sauce, and optional add ons. I ordered the bulgogi with udon noodles and it came with a decent portion of meat and noodles with a bit of vegetables. The meat and noodles were packed separately but in the same container which was pretty neat. I felt the noodles were oily so the overall meal was a bit heavy. I visited during lunch and received my order quickly. I was annoyed at the ordering process because I stood inside the stanchion area where the sign says form line here but the cashier chose to receive orders from people who started forming the line outside the stanchion after I was waiting in line. The cashier saw me waiting there but she didn't acknowledge or call me to take my order so I asked her where the line was. To my surprise she said the line was outside the stanchion area. She didn't offer to take my order next so I had to go to the back of whatever line she was taking orders from. That's terrible customer service. It wasn't busy and the ordering process was already this unorganized.

    Bulgogi Bowl
    Alan N.

    This is located in the food court near the Target on Figat. I tried both their galbi and bulgogi bowls and both were great alone or when paired with their soy sauce. Note that during weekday lunch hours the line can get really long. The staff is nice and there is plenty of seating in the food court.

    Bulgogi and noodles
    Callan K.

    As a big fan of Parks BBQ I had high hopes for their fast food shop Oleego. I have to say that I was not disappointed. I love their containers which separates the protein (Galbi, Bulgogi, Salmon, Spicy Pork bulgogi, Chicken bulgogi, Shrimp, Tofu, Bibimbap) from the base ( White Rice, Brown Rice, Egg Fried Rice, Kimchi Fried Rice, Noodles, Mixed Greens) allowing you to mix as desired. I ordered the Bulgogi and noodles for $9. The beef was authentic and delicious. The noodles were ok, more like an udon noodle then I was expecting plus they were a little sticky but other than that it was a great quick lunch. I also opted for a side of white rice (always have to have rice with Korean BBQ) and one banchan (japchae). The Japchae was fine, flavorful, well-cooked - the perfect addition to my meal. With the side, banchan and a drink it came to just under $15 but still not a bad price for lunch in downtown LA.

    Their Salmon Bowl with a side of kimchi. The salmon was good with the oleego hot sauce & kimchi but otherwise nothing out of the ordinary
    Tiffany D.

    Came here for lunch during my break from work twice already. I love that they're offered through the Ritual app which is a work perk at my current company. My only complaint is I wish they offered sides on the ritual app so I can add side dishes to my order rather than paying in person when I get there. Please note this place is tucked away in the food court of Fig & 7th so don't expect it to be exactly the same as what you'd get at Park's BBQ. Regardless if you're craving korean or KBBQ, this place hit the spot! Of all the options in the food court, it's my personal favorite. I recommend finding parking specifically at Fig & 7th Here's what I ordered: 1. Create Your Own Bibimbap Bowl with Beef: HIGHLY recommended. I read other reviews saying Oleego doesn't offer Banchan (side dishes) like other places so I mistakenly ordered a side of kimchi, cucumber & bean sprout which cost $1.50 each! So keep in mind, you probably don't need the extra sides I added to my order since the bibimbap did come with carrots, cucumber & bean sprouts. If I order again, I would just stick to the bibimbap as is & get a kimchi on the side because their kimchi is off the chain! 2. Salmon Bowl with side of kimchi: it was ok for what you get but it wasn't anything out of the ordinary. If you're craving salmon or just looking to eat fish, it is still decent quality, especially paired with the Oleego hot sauce & kimchi. Overall, I would definitely come back here on a future lunch break to try their other dishes.

    My go-to place for a simple and quick lunch at 7th & Fig food court tucked in the heart of busy DTLA. Gotta love the shrimp with green salad and spicy soy or spicy pork bulgogi with steam rice and spicy soy. Quick, fast and satisfyingly good!

    After having a sauna at Crystal Spa on Sunday evening, September 13th, I had dinner with my mom and…read moremy two brothers at Hang Ah Restaurant (항아리 바지락 칼국수). I think I've been coming here for a very, very long time--probably for about 20 years! I used to come here quite often back then. At some point, though, I stopped coming as much because the parking situation in this shopping center became so busy and chaotic that it was difficult to even get in from the entrance. Also, the last time I came here, maybe two years ago, the valet parking attendant was so rude that I didn't really feel like coming back. This time, since we were already in the area for the spa, we decided to stop by again. Back when I first started coming here, it was just a very small noodle restaurant. One thing they've kept all these years--and what I think is such a great touch--is that they still serve yeolmu kimchi and kkom-bori-bap (barley rice) as a complimentary side. The restaurant became incredibly popular over the years and eventually expanded into the neighboring space, so there are now many more tables than there used to be. Since it had been such a long time since my last visit, I noticed they had quite a few new menu items that weren't available before, including galbi-jjim (braised short ribs), samgyetang (Korean ginseng chicken soup), and galbi noodle soup. One of my brothers and I ordered the perilla oil makguksu each, and it was absolutely delicious! It had such a rich, nutty flavor from the perilla oil, and it was one of those dishes that makes you think about it again later. In the past, I would always order the clam kalguksu whenever I came here, but this time I decided to try something different. My other brother ordered the clam kalguksu, and my mom had the dolsot (Hot stone) bibimbap. I tried a spoonful of my mom's dolsot bibimbap because I really like bibimbap too, and it was delicious as well. In the past, the wait here used to be incredibly long. You had to write your name and phone number by hand at the entrance, and then a staff member would come outside and call your name when your table was ready. This time, the system was different. We were told to simply wait in line, and she would take our orders outside. She said the wait would only be about 5-10 minutes, and she was absolutely right. While we were waiting in line outside, she handed us menus, took our orders, and then seated us at our table. The food came out quickly, the service was very friendly, and everything we ordered was delicious. It turned out to be a very satisfying dinner. After coming back here again after such a long time, I completely understood why this place has been so popular for so many years. It was just as popular back then as it is now, and honestly, I can see why!

    This is by far the best noodle spot in LA's K-town…read more The noodles and soup are consistently amazing, and the service is excellent. On top of that, the interior is clean, cute, and very well-kept. Parking is quite limited, though--even with valet service, it gets super congested. There's almost always a long line, as it seems like a must-try spot for anyone visiting LA. Because of that, getting a table is usually pretty tough, but we got so lucky last Sunday and were seated right away. The food was absolutely divine, and we left completely satisfied. Honestly, I almost wish fewer people knew about this place so I could come more often. They're just that good.

Service is quite slow, as a true mom and pop place. It's quite popular and we happened to get there just before the rush as there was a large group waiting when we left. I'm not sure why it takes quite so long for the boribap jungsik cold dishes since most of it is premade and just needs plating. For a long time all we got was fried kelp crackers, kinda greasy fried shrimp cracker (?) and scorched rice water that was very tough to eat. The sweet pumpkin porridge was better, but I'm not a fan of sweet porridge. The rest of the set was better, fortunately, but most of it was on par with banchan that is complimentary at other restaurants but of course more variety. The savory pancake was very crispy and stayed that way. That was probably my favorite from the set, along with the perilla seed and chicken soup. The texture was quite thick like gravy but I love congee and it had a similar feel but nuttier taste. I would love a bowl of this if I were sick. Since there were 3 of us, we thought a protein would be good so we ordered the pork ribs. They were pretty good. It reminded me of hamji park, although I prefer hamji. It ended up being more food than we could eat so we took some of the ribs home. I'm glad we ordered the set for 2 and then shared a different dish. Overall I'm glad I tried it since I've been curious. The meal was good but I probably would try another option next time.

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.
