Paid $12 (6 huge dumplings), but they were not very good and I immediately regretted buying 2 packs. They only accept cash or zelle. read more

Just visited, and their mandu is great, honestly. I've been loving it as a kid, but I was seriously shocked today by the owner and worker's attitude. My father and I were purchasing three plates of their king size dumplings and while paying asked for two of the mandus to be packed separately. There was no other customer besides us, and the owner and maybe her husband was making dumplings, but the other worker was not. They were not busy from my point of view. The owner lady replied with an attitude saying they dont do that there. When the worker begrudgingly decided to acquiesce to our request anyway when we weren't saying anything and trying to laugh off the awkwardly aggressive response, the owner scolded the worker in front of us saying "Do you not understand what they asked for? They asked for two to be packed separately - how can we do that??" Mind you, we were already feeling extremely awkward like we needed to be apologetic for inconveniencing them for even asking. The worker looked annoyed as she got out seal wrap to wrap our dumpling - she looked upset to the point that I felt awkward to even have to remind her that we asked for two of the meat dumplings to be wrapped separately. Instead my poor father had to remind her as she started trying to wrap one kimchi dumpling instead. I love their food, don't get me wrong, but I have never felt so disrespected while making a purchase. Mainly because it wasn't targeted towards me, but my father. I started to get upset by the whole situation wondering what we did so wrong asking for two to be separated, and then the treatment they gave us like we were being so rude and disrespectful to them - I still can't wrap my head around it. ESPECIALLY to a father in front of his daughter - that is so awkward for me. He did nothing wrong and did not deserve that kind of treatment from these ladies. I told them I would wrap the dumpling myself since it's such a hassle, and I even paid them a dollar extra for that scrap of seal wrap and 2 extra minutes of their time. Seriously I am still fuming about the entire episode and I can't believe they think it's okay to treat their customers like that, and I really hope they understand that they shouldnt do that. 다 같은 사람이고 아무리 뭐 기분이 나쁘시던 피곤하시던 사람 그렇게 무안하게 만들고 틱틱대면서 만만하게 취급하는거 아니에요. 저희는 뭐 짜증 못내서 화를 안내는 사람들 아니고 저희는 기분 좋게 맛있는 만두 사고 일하는 직원들 한테 나눠주려고 갔는데 오히려 만두를 사면서 욕먹는 기분이었어요. 제발 다른 손님들 한테 그렇게 대하지 마세요. 사람 도리 아닙니다. read more

This mom and pop establishment is a humble shop inside Hannam Chain market. It seems like they reopened recently after being closed for a period of time. They have a variety of steamed mandu (meat, kimchi, veggie, red bean) as well as buns without any filling (barley, corn, etc). FYI all their orders come in packs and not singles and they come out hot from their steamer. I got 6 huge kimchi mandus for $11. I didn't get a chance to take a pic of their menu but the prices have slightly gone up since a few years ago. The mandu was filled with flavorful kimchi filling that was nestled in a fluffy bun - homey and satisfying! Would highly recommend trying this place out, they even have frozen mandu for purchase. read more

Great for fast, takeout dumplings! I usually get the beef dumplings (6 for $10) and kimchi dumplings (6 for $11). Cash-only. Turn left as soon as you enter Hannam Chain and avoid the crowded supermarket. read more

I love these king dumplings. I don't like shopping in the crowded Hannam Chain, but I come here for these dumplings. They're $10 per box. We always get the meat dumplings. So good and worth the visit. read more

I love their wang mandoo's. My go to order is the kimchi and veggie. They are perfectly season I never use soy sauce when eating them. All the mando's are steamed but they do have frozen mandoo for sale that can be fried, boiled, or steamed. They are even tasty the next morning. Remember, they are cash only!! read more

The best dumpling of Koreatown, followed closely by Yu Ga Ne: https://www.yelp.com/biz/yu-ga-ne-los-angeles-2 One order comes with 6 king dumplings, enough food for the hungry male. The dumplings themselves look unassuming, but the taste is good enough that I suspect they put crack in it. I didn't get to try their Kimchi dumplings ($1 short, goddammit), but judging by their Meat or Veggie versions, I'd say it'd be pretty damn good. Cash only, takeout only, parking sucks. read more

In the 2003 Korean film Oldboy, the protagonist Oh Dae Su is fed a steady diet of fried mandoo, a food that he detests the most, while he's imprisoned. After his release, he visits various restaurants serving the dish to get clues and determine where he was held captive. I don't know too many people like Oh Dae Su, that hates mandoo. But, I also don't know anyone that's been locked up in a room for that many years either. Still, I like mandoo in all forms and shapes, especially the Wang Mandoo (King Dumplings). Peking Dumpling sells just that and they're located inside the Hannam Chain Supermarket on Olympic Blvd in Koreatown. It's been there for years and much to my surprise, really untouched, based on 2 lone YELP reviews written a couple years back. The Wang Mandoo is decently sized, yet the bun is more fragile and thin. Less carbs, but the filling is still very tasty. It's about the size of my fist, so it's not too big. With less dough, it's not as thick, but I actually like that. Everything, is made in house, as the ladies were making them on the spot, during my visit. The Meat and Vegetable are both $6 per 6 dumplings, which is not bad for a dollar each. Honestly, these days I'm favoring the Vegetable Wang Mandoo at these types of places. They just taste better. I used to pass on the veggie option, but not anymore. If possible, Soy Sauce and Pickled Radish on the side would also be swell. Peking Dumpling also sells Vegetable Dumplings with barley mixed into the bun. It's supposed to be healthier for a buck more. The ones filled with Red Bean are also available as well, including regular Barley Bread and Corn Bread. Interesting, as I'm curious as to how the plain bread tastes like. They come in a pack of six for $3. One more awesome thing, if you like Jajangmyeon Sauce, you can get some for $4. With all this variety, doesn't this warrant a visit, especially if you're in the area? read more

I love the dumplings here! My dad always liked to buy this dumplings but there used to be another place my dad used to buy it from but it got closed down. The dumplings here however are just as good! You have to try the beef dumplings they're so good! I can't recommend this place enough. Highly recommend stopping by even if it's out of your way. I wish there were more locations to spread the dumpling love. read more

Used to be epic. Now, it's bad. Did the owner change? The dough is different (in a bad way); the mandu wrapping skill has gone down significantly. Several veggie mandu not closed at the seam. Increased price to $9. Also, the guy at the counter tried to convince me to buy another bag but in a not so convincing way and mannerism kinda felt "off." Will not be returning. Sad because I've been coming here for more than 15 years. read more

Awful customer service, super soggy steam buns and expensive fir the price. They are in a process of ownership change I think. Original owner showed up later in the afternoon when we were debating buying steamed red bean buns. The younger lady who was taking the order became irate when I said the buns were merely lukewarm. She got mad and started raising her voice. That's poor quality of service. Besides the buns tasted super soggy and old like they had been sitting for a long time. I wouldn't recommend buying from there. At least not anymore. My husband complained of same experience; same lady and soggy buns. read more

I dropped by here to grab a quick meal for lunch, but was pretty disappointed. I haven't really had bad wangmandoos in my life, but this one was pretty bad. The seasoning was too salty and lacked flavor. My husband is also suffering in the bathroom at the moment. The grandpa at the counter tried to convince me to buy another one, but I'm glad that I didn't. read more

I have been coming to Hannam chain market and have tried this dumpling place couple of times and I thought it's about time that I wrote a review for this place. This place is actually located inside the market by the exit. Their king meat mandoo is a safe bet as I always get them. For $7.00 you get 6 pieces and they are delicious. Only reason for non 5 star review is due to lack of variety. You have 3 choices as far as dumplings are concerned. No fried items. But what they do offer is pretty decent for the money. read more

I used to be a long time follower of this small LA's mandoo place and tonight, I decided to pay a visit after many years. I was excited to eat an order of meat mandoo and vegetable mandoo but to my surprise, the dumpling dough was extremely soggy and the overall flavor experience was not present. It was so bland. I'm not sure what happened to this place but it's best that you spend your money somewhere else. read more

I like taking this to a meeting. When there's more than 20+ people, it's an affordable snack to take and people love it! It was a rainy day today and I wanted to take something warm. The owner made me wait 2minutes for just out of the steamer, hot juicy beef dumplings. You can't find a better deal anywhere-6 for $7. Eat it while its hot. When it cools down, it doesn't taste the same. It's not the best tasting king dumpling but it's a good deal for sure! Their veggie or the red bean is also great option! read more

This little shop is where my family frequents to get wang mandoo (king dumplings). Both the meat dumplings and the veggie dumplings are pretty big and tasty. I've also had the steamed red bean buns, but I'll stick to the king dumplings here. You get six per order for $6 but sadly they don't let you mix and match. During peak lunch hours, I had to fight through Korean ladies cutting in line to place my order. read more

This place is hidden. You wouldn't be able to find it or know about it unless you frequented this place. They have only maybe three kinds of dumplings. All very good, but I think the vegetable one is best. They're all made by the ladies who work there. read more

I don't understand these 5 stars rating, but I recently went to get some meat dumplings and they are not fresh! I went in 11 in the morning thinking that it will be freshly made today, but the dumpling wrappers tasted super soggy and the meat fillings tasted extremely old. I literally ate one and through the rest away. I don't want to get sick from eating this crap and please don't waste your money here! This place used to be good, but I don't know what happened. read more

Located inside Hannam Market, this place has DELICIOUS dumplings and not the weak sauce potsticker kind. The ladies make everything from scratch and the dumpling dough is soooo tasty! The meat ones are the size of a softball and the vegetable ones are a bit smaller and shaped like leaves. Back when they were a dollar each I would've given this place 5 stars, but the last time I had dumplings from here, prices went up and the quality was not as high as before. A little bit of soy sauce and a half dozen of these bad boys and you're set for lunch and dinner! read more

I have nothing bad to say about this tiny dumpling kitchen tucked inside the Hannam supermarket. Years ago I worked with a girl who moved here from Korea and she introduced me to this little gem...6 years later I continue to call on this place when its a dumpling I crave! Bring cash, it's $7 for half a dozen large dumplings (wang mandoo, veggie or beef...they're both delish), but they're worth so much more! read more

I love mandoo (dumpling)! I've been coming here for years (even when I used to live in oc!) They have a mixture of either meat or veggie steamed dumplings. They're pretty big and give 6 pieces per order. They are cash only! It looks pretty ghetto but those are always best spots to eat! read more

Huge king dumplings! I got an order of 6 and used the leftover the next morning with a fried egg on top for breakfast!
