    Chat, I found my new favorite Jokbal restaurant in ktown! After being disappointed by some older Jokbal restaurants Pink Pig definitely came through and delivered some tasty and quality food tonight. Restaurant is very well lit, reminds me of a pub. Went on a Sat night and not much traffic inside, was seated immediately. Menu is vast and easy to understand and decided on the bento portioned jokbal + fried jokbal. The fried jokbal took the show! So tasty and was a first for me! The owner explained this is something that is new and is the first restaurant in ktown to have it on their menu apparently! Absolutely delicious. Came with a variety of different side dishes that was so good and complimented the main dish. Dish wasnt gamy or tough. Meat was very tasty and chewy and had a lot of flavor. My go-to restaurant now. Owner gave some freebies which was so nice of her and gave some recommendations for next time. Definitely will be back. I finally found a new place for jokbal again. Recommended items: -fried jokbal: 9.2/10 -regular jokbal: 8.8/10 Parking is limited as you have street parking only. There is a small lot behind the restaurant but very tight and a bit tough to get out as its one way only.

    Got signature spicy jokbal and fried jokbal. Food was good. Side dishes were great. I like spicy one more than the fried one. I might get only spicy jokbal next time.

    Tried Pink Pig Jokbal in K-town and it was such a fun dinner spot. We ordered the $69 combo with spicy jokbal and crispy fried jokbal, and everything was super flavorful and tender. Wrapping the pork in lettuce with all the side dishes was honestly the best part. The boneless spicy chicken feet were addictive too. Perfect place to grab drinks and hang out with friends. Portions are big and great for sharing. Definitely coming back!

    We had a great time at pink pig and everything taste so delicious. I felt we just traveled back to Korea and the service was amazing. The resturant felt really cozy and my favorite fish was their braised pork. The owner is really nice and she provides exceptional service to all customers. It's a must try if you have not had it before. Thank you Pink pig for your hospitality.

    One of the best Jokbal spots in ktown! Their serving size is incredible and original jokbal is their best! Their jokbal combo half half is a must order, it comes with alot of size that are refillable and make a lettuce wrap is amazing! Also their mussel soup is insanely good too perfect to ease the grease! Their service is fast too.

    Half regular and half mild spicy jokbal

    I've been wanting to try this restaurant for so long! Finally got to go this past Sunday with my family! The manager was so accommodating and served us everything so quickly :) We had the half regular and half spicy (mild) jokbal that came with so many amazing side dishes! We also got to try their signature dish the fried jokbal. Everything was so delicious! The meat was so tender and seasoned so well! Definitely killed my craving for some good Korean Pig Feet! We will absolutely come back for more of their jokbal!

    Special menu: Jokbal Soup

    Went to dinner my wife and 2 kids, and the food was amazing, especially the spicy one. The owners said they used real peppers rather than the spicy chemical. The level of spicy is just fine but not too crazy. Also, the kids love the regular one with seaweed rice. The owners (mother and daughter) are operating and managing the business directly on the site, and they are very friendly and kind. Dine-in and take-out are all OK, and definitely a must-go place~

    洛杉矶韩人街终于开了一家超好吃的猪蹄店了! 我以前在很多地方吃过猪蹄,但总觉得味道差点意思, 现在终于找到了真正地道又美味的猪蹄! 老板从韩国带来了正宗的食谱,经过长时间的研究和用心,成功还原了弘大(Hongdae)风味,吃一口就能感受到! 老板非常亲切友好,菜单上有辣味猪蹄、炸猪蹄、包肉(Bossam)等别的地方很难吃到的特别菜品。 祝Pink Pig Korean Jokbal生意兴隆、越来越红火! A truly delicious jokbal (Korean braised pig's feet) spot has finally opened in Koreatown, LA! I've tried jokbal at many places before, but was always left a bit disappointed -- until now. This place finally delivers the real taste I've been craving. The owner brought an original recipe from Korea and put a lot of time and effort into recreating the authentic Hongdae flavor -- and you can really taste the difference. The owner is incredibly kind, and the menu includes spicy jokbal, crispy fried jokbal, bossam, and other unique dishes you won't find elsewhere. Pink Pig Korean Jokbal, wishing you huge success!

    Delightful new spot that quite literally just opened in K-town (6/24 was their very first day) -- We live around the corner and saw they were finally open so popped in on a whim~ Tried their spicy jokbal with the cheese filled rice cakes add-on as well as their signature fried jokbal, both A++, super tender meat and well rendered so nothing felt overly greasy. Would absolutely recommend the fried jokbal as I believe this is the only jokbal spot in ktown that currently makes this -- super friendly and welcoming staff too! **also, from 6/24-6/27 their entire menu is 30% off as a grand opening promo!

    Ordered the fried Jokbal and the original jokbal combo! Both tasted great and there are a lot of side dishes included in the combo. I would say it serves 2-3 people. It's on a slight further location in Ktown but I will definitely come back

    At a super popular jokbal spot in Hongdae, Korea , and guess what -- you can now get the same style in LA! It's gotten so popular that there's already a line on weekends. What we ordered: Original Jokbal + Fried Jokbal Set ($68) The portion is huge -- easily enough for 3-4 people. Original Jokbal The pig skin is cleaned really well. The texture is tender and gelatinous but not mushy, and the meat is still firm. Wrap the thicker pieces with lettuce and kimchi -- it cuts the richness perfectly. Fried Jokbal (my favorite!) The outside is super crispy, and it flakes apart when you pick it up. Inside it's still soft and juicy -- that crispy-outside, tender-inside contrast is amazing. Not greasy at all, and it gets more flavorful the more you eat. They also cut it into small bite-size pieces, which makes it really easy to eat. The extra dishes were all solid too Mussel Soup Light and slightly spicy -- really refreshing and appetizing. The mussels were very clean with no fishy taste. Potato Pancake Crispy outside and soft inside. The kids loved it -- basically gone in minutes. Boneless Chicken Feet with Cheese We ordered mild spicy, but it was actually pretty spicy Very flavorful and soft in texture. The banchan spread was impressive They bring out a whole row of side dishes: kimchi, glass noodles, pickled radish, bean sprout soup... Wrap the jokbal with lettuce, add some kimchi and noodles -- one bite is pure satisfaction. The only downside: they only open for dinner! I honestly wish I could eat this for lunch too. Not exaggerating -- it's the kind of place that makes you want to plan your second visit immediately.

    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.

Danbi is located in Los Angeles's Koreatown and specializes in modern Korean cuisine. For Dine LA, they offered a $45 tasting menu. We started with their signature honey butter chips. I used to not understand what all the hoopla was about these chips! But today, they were really good... and I think it's the honey butter sauce. The first time I ever had these chips, in 2024, there was no sauce on them. I just thought they were regular chips. And I probably never would have gotten them again if they weren't on a prix fixe menu. These chips were divine! Thinly sliced potatoes fried in house and topped with a decadent honey butter sauce and fresh chives. The sauce really made this appetizer. Thick and creamy, almost like condensed milk. And the touch of freshness from the chives really brought everything together. Although simple, I felt like this dish was very well crafted. Next, we had the corn cheese rolls - sweet corn and mozzarella cheese wrapped in an eggroll-like pastry and served with a sweet, tangy gochujang sauce on the side. These came piping hot and were so fun to eat. The cheese was so stretchy and the sauce really elevated this dish, cutting through that rich cheese and adding a savory, almost smoky element. Then our drinks arrived. I got the hwachae milk punch with milk clarified soju, strawberry, lychee, and lime. This drink was sweet and fruity and tasted just like one of those lychee jellies you would buy at the Asian grocery store. My friends had the kimchi mule, house white kimchi infused soju with ginger and pear - essentially a Moscow mule with fermented notes and a savory umami from the kimchi. Nice and refreshing. Then we had a watermelon kimchi salad. This wasn't my favorite. Compared to everything else we had tonight, this was a bit boring. It was light and refreshing, but I wanted more fermented flavor. But it was still good, and the Hami melon was nice and crisp. You can never really go wrong with watermelon. Then we had the spicy sashimi noodles with sea bream, soba, dropwort, and perilla. This dish was interesting, summery, and cool. Cold soba with a spicy kick. Flavor wise, the ssamjang and perilla stood out to me. And the soba and sashimi added some nice textural contrast. Our last savory course was their grilled pork jowl topped with their house chili crisp and served with a side of garlic rice along with some ssamjang and peppers. The pork jowl was, of course, delicious. The cut is naturally bouncy due to being jam packed with collagen. The grill imparted a nice, smoky charcoal flavor to the meat, which was also infused with that delicious chili oil. Their garlic rice is so good! It's packed with garlic flavor and perfectly fluffy. For dessert, we had a goguma parfait - sweet potato custard with a strawberry and blueberry compote. This dessert was.. interesting. The texture was smooth and creamy, but you could definitely tell that there was a sweet potato in there. I think this dessert could use a little more textural contrast. I definitely would have appreciated a cake layer in the parfait or a more prominent crunchy element rather than just the two pieces of tuile garnish on top. That being said, it was still good. Danbi is one of my favorite restaurants in LA if not my number one favorite. Their menu feels modern, interesting, and creative, innovating on traditional Korean classics while remaining authentic and delicious. I especially liked their Dine LA menu for this season as it felt very fun and summery. I can't wait to come back and see what else they have to offer!

The pork jowl was also really good. The slices were thin and tender, with a lot of flavor and a nice balance of fat without feeling overly rich. The uni bibimbap was probably my least favorite of the three. The uni itself was good, but I felt like the overall dish needed more seasoning and flavor to really stand out. It was a little underwhelming compared to the other dishes. Overall, the food was solid, but I'd especially recommend the scallop pancakes and pork jowl.

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.

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.

    my $20 lunch special turned into like 4 meals. GREAT value…read more i was craving korean home-style cooking and found this place. it's got affordable lunch specials under $20. i was really surprised at just how much food i received for just $20... giant plate of sizzinging. perfectly seasoned pork ribs & onions with a really nice char. a big cup of rice, a really great banchan spread with lots of variety, and a massive bowl of broth with such a great mild flavor to balance the spicy banchan and rich pork. it was phenomenal, cured my tummy ache, and immediately took me back to my trip to korea many years ago. i inhaled everything but there was so much food i ended up with a big takeout bag. i kid you not this one $20 meal has turned into like 4 meals for me. pork turned into lettuce wraps, rice fried and mixed with eggs , broth used to elevate a cheap ramen. i WILL be back. i wish i could have bought some of the banchan as an extra charge or something so i could take it home with me because im STILL dreaming of it. the inside has good a/c and a cute homely atmosphere. and the staff was incredibly kind and helped me choose what to eat and helped me pack up the broth once i was done eating. you can see the giant goblet of boiling broth in the kitchen as you eat. easy parking behind the restaurant and in the street.
