    Palm Tree Karaoke is fun. Always good times here. Great spot for a social gathering with friends, and they offer a great selection of songs so theres always something for everyone. Never disappoints!

    Hosted my friendsgiving here this year and it was an absolute blast! We got a standard room for 6 people with the soju and beer package. For our entree we ordered the bulgogi rice which was AMAZING. They also let us bring some of our own food due to some dietary restrictions in our party which was so kind. They offer tambourines too which is such a great add!! The package typically comes with 2 hours of karaoke but bc we had so much fun we added another hour. Jerry was our waiter and very nice as was the rest of the staff. If you're looking for something fun and different to do with a group this is the move! Only downside is the automatically applied gratuity which is kind of hefty. All in all - would come again!

    Perfect place for a late night out with amazing customer service. The rooms are clean and have great sound quality!

    Our private karaoke room was super spacious and clean!! The music selection was up to date and the service was fast. This is a great spot for small and large groups. The other karaoke places make you pay up front for a bunch of drinks, but here you can just order what you want. Our group of 3 enjoyed that very much! Will definitely be back next time we're in LA.

    The best!! Thank you!!

    Bill for fruit, 4 soju, 8 Korean beer, 2 hours

    Of all the karaoke places in K-town, please don't settle for this one. It's very clear they're trying to rebrand on Yelp given the influx of 5 star reviews in the last 5-6 months. My experience most closely aligned with the reviews dated before then. First of all, I tried to request a reservation and received a text message requesting my credit card info via text to confirm my reservation. I am very cautious about my card info and opted to walk in instead. When my group and I arrived, we were quickly ushered into a room. I thought this was great given we didn't have a reservation. That's where the positive review ends. We were told we had to buy a package and were walked to the room without being handed a menu or an explanation of our options. Once we were in our room, a server came in and asked what flavor soju we wanted. We answered, he said he'd bring coors light, but we requested the Korean beer instead. The server brought those drinks and a fruit platter and disappeared. No overview of the controls, remote, settings etc. which you typically get when using karaoke rooms. Our servers were never to be seen again until our time was almost up. The server came in saying they needed a card now, handed mine over and they came back with the receipt and my card. The charges included a service charge. The package listed was the standard room, which includes 2 hours, the drinks mentioned above, fruit and an entree. The entree never came nor was it offered. Again, no menu available anywhere. Today when I looked at the receipt I noticed the service charge, and the package was one line item so I looked online to confirm we were billed for the right package since we were never handed a menu or package description. The package was not described on the receipt at all. Additionally, I didn't see the mandatory/ unilaterally added service charge listed anywhere. I normally don't question those charges if they're on a menu and are tied to a policy that's clearly outlined for customers. This was not the case at palm tree. I sent a text message looking to clarify the charges to the number that initially reached out regarding my initial request to book a room in advance. The person responded and I tried to explain my confusion. The person called me and introduced himself as the manager. I was so glad to see they were trying to communicate and answered, thanking them for reaching out before I explained anything. That call ended up making matters much worse. The manager was condescending. I tried to explain that we were not clear as to what our package included and that we were charged a service fee without any explanation. We also never received any food other than the fruit platter, despite the online descriptions stating an entree was included. I repeatedly explained that we were never offered a selection, menu, or any type of service. After several repetitive explanations, I became frustrated and asked if customers were expected to beg for service to which he answered "yes, just like a hotel". After which I said, wow okay and hung up. Obviously nothing to discuss if that's their understanding of what service should consist of. Karaoke rooms are not hotels despite the motel activity going on at this location. (Yes, the hooker reviews are true. Leather clad escorts, others in school girl mini skirts, and some in teeny weeny night club-esque dresses run rampant.) He then followed up our call via text saying it was his day off and that I should be glad he every contacted me today - as if I should have access to his schedule. I also noted I thought it was a business phone given they requested credit card info via text from that number. If you do book in advance, be on the lookout for any fraudulent charges. It's not normal or acceptable to request credit card info from a cell number. Most places either don't require this or you book online in a secure and private site. Overall very disappointed. This feels like a cover operation for the sex work that happens here, with money grabs and bait and switch tactics used on paying customers who really only come for karaoke. Wonder what the 5 star reviewers received in exchange for the positive reviews- there's no way they were submitted by customers paying full price. I've uploaded a video of all we received for our $366 total.

    Place is amazing to hang out with friends. Ambiance is great and would 100% recommend.

    Having fun with the cousins and brother!

    I love the song selections here! They have everything i was looking for! Good food and soju too. The popcorn chicken was surprisingly good. Thank you Palm Tree!

    Like the restaurant's name, Hangari Kalguksu makes amazing and comforting Kalguksu, in particular…read moretheir Spicy Seafood Kalguksu, which is the option we ordered. We got the large which was more than enough for our party of 6. It is made up of anchovy broth with shrimp, half of a crab, mussels, clams, zucchini, kabocha squash, & potato. The shining star of the show for me, however, is Hangari's Bossam that is made up of boiled pork belly served with crunchy bite-sized cabbage, pickles, and sweet and spicy radish. I think Hangari Kalguksu should change their name to Hangari Bossam... Hahaha!!! I'm just kidding, but yes, I think it is that good and so satisfying to make your own personalized Bossam bites (wrapping the meat in cabbage and adding toppings to it) that I like to eat along with the banchan they provide which includes Kimchi. If you drink alcohol, it pairs well with sips of Makgeolli and Korean beer. Not mixed together, but sipped separately and taking turns between bites. I feel it really enhances the flavors of the food. Eating all of this simple yet decadent food and throwing back the Makgeolli and beer in between bites kind of transported me to how I imagine the royalty feasted during the Joseon Dynasty! At the end, I was so happy, satisfied, and luxuriating in my fullness!!! I didn't want to get up and end this feeling of bliss. We never felt rushed, but I'm so glad we got there before the dinner rush because as we walked out of the restaurant, the line outside the door was getting very long. Make sure you get there before 5pm to have a better chance of getting seated right away and to avoid having to wait in such a long line. This is in fact a popular dining destination for good reason.

    We went on a Sunday afternoon, and there was a decent line outside the restaurant. However, the…read moreline moved quickly. They handed out menus and took your order when you were close to the front. Once seated inside, they welcomed you with their signature banchan dishes: the nutty boribap (보리밥), which tastes great on its own but even better with their yeolmu kimchi (radish water kimchi). There's also their tasty radish kimchi and napa kimchi. Throughout the meal, they replenished our banchan multiple times without us asking. We tried two of the new items: Galbi Kalguksu: A delicious, deep-flavored bone broth with knife-cut noodles, shredded fried egg, sliced radish, and scallions. The meat fell off the bone, and I loved the broth, though my husband thought it was a little on the saltier side. Perilla Oil Makguksu: Cold buckwheat noodles in perilla oil. Mixed with sliced shiitake mushrooms, shredded perilla leaf, gim (seaweed), sesame seeds, and scallions. It's a deliciously light refreshing dish if you don't want the heavy knife-cut noodle dishes. Last, I ordered the Non-spicy Seafood Kalguksu. It comes with a anchovy broth with a lot of seafood flavors. It's a lighter broth than the galbi but still rich in flavor. It came with clams, mussels, shrimps and 1/2 crab. There was also sliced pumpkin and zucchini. Everything tasted great. Their servers were very attentive and generous with replenishing the side dishes, and overall it was a wonderful experience. If you see a line and don't mind waiting 15-30 minutes, it moves pretty quickly, so don't be deterred by it.

We got to try a couple of things. The first thing we ate was their corn cheese roll. The waiter said this is new to the menu and I hope it stays. If you are a fan of Korean cheese corn, you are going to love this. It's corn and cheese wrapped up in an egg roll like wrapper. It was a great starter. Next, we got the endive salad! This salad was beautiful and fresh! Everything you want in a salad and more. I love the sweet corn in this salad too. Every ingredient balance each other so well. We also got the scallop pancake. This was the dish I always wanted to try here but after eating it, it felt a bit heavy compare to the other dishes. It was okay but the other dishes shined more. Lastly, we got the pork jowl, my favorite of the night. It came with a side of garlic rice! You dip the pork with the chili crisp and eat it with a scoop of rice, delicious!! I wish I had that dish right now. Overall, a great dinner spot in ktown!!!

Saltiness of the chips helped balance it out Scallop pancake: wish they were the larger scallops instead of the small ones but they were fried really well. The breading pancake part def was a bit doughy and a little undercooked Jowl: great. Loved the ssamjang and traditional peppers they gave with it. Should've asked for extra samjang Steak: most of my groups favorite. Cooked incredibly well and the perilla leaf chimchurri was very unique. Might have to incorporate that myself when making chimichurri. They had Korean inspired drinks which were yummy. The injeolmi flavor in mine came through really strongly (good thing). The gim-let tasted like a standard gimlet asides from the piece of fried seaweed ggim on top. Hwachae cocktail was also tasty but didn't taste unique

    tl;dr the delectable pork ribs overshadow the otherwise authentic but standard lineup at this…read morenow-shuttered Korean stalwart Los Angeles Koreatown is home to restaurants that specialize in every facet of Korean cuisine. 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.
