Sometimes I just get a craving for Chinese food, and this is one of my go-to places. I like that it's clean, simple, and not overly crowded. The atmosphere is comfortable, and I personally prefer this kind of neat, straightforward style. It's a great spot when you're looking for a relaxed meal.

This evening (2/8/2026 Sunday) , we picked up sweet and sour pork (tangsuyuk) to go from Shin Beijing and enjoyed it at home. This is a very old, long-established restaurant in LA. I hadn't been there in a long time--I went many years ago, then ordered takeout during the Covid pandemic, and this was my first visit back in quite a while. There's another Chinese restaurant, Yeonkyung, located just across the street, which is famous for its glutinous rice sweet and sour pork. We've gone there more often, so it has been especially long since we last visited Shin Beijing. This restaurant also has private rooms where you can sit separately, and it reminded me that we once held a family birthday party for my father here many years ago. Today, we ordered the sweet and sour pork to go, and it was so crispy and delicious. Since it had been so long since our last visit, I also noticed they now offer lunch specials, which all looked tasty and well-priced. The staff was very friendly as well, which made the experience even better.

Delicious Chinese and Korean food! Good portions, staff very attentive! I got the orange chicken and combination fried rice with vegetables. Kimchi was perfect and egg drop soup was great. Valet parking in back.

I went to Shin Beijing for lunch, and it was a solid experience. The interior is spotless, with a modern remodel, new lighting and some private rooms create a nice atmosphere. We started with the mala mapo tofu, and it was fantastic, spicy and numbing with a strong mala kick. Service was quick and attentive, with the staff regularly topping off water. We also tried the stir fried vegetables, which had a bit of a mustard or wasabi like flavor. My family enjoyed it, but it wasn't my favorite. The ttangsyuk, however, was a highlight. The medium portion wasn't huge, but it was still satisfying, with crispy breading and an excellent sauce.

They get super busy so if you have a big party, make sure to make reservations. They have a big room to accommodate 100 people and they can also separate it into 5 rooms to host a party of 20 in each room! They have a wide selection of party menu so it a perfect place to host your party. There is a reason for them being open since 1984. And I was convinced to check out Shin Beijing because a chef from one of my favorite Korean restaurants in LA told me about them so it's legit. I wouldn't go here just for jjajangmyeon or jjampong. Still good but I highly recommend going their for the main dishes.

I know Chinese restaurants aren't as popular for Dohljanchis these days, but it was a clear that for good food, plenty of space, and a good deal, Shin Beijing would be best to fit my family's needs for my daughter's 1st birthday. The staff here were so accommodating, flexible, and hardworking. They provided us with everything we needed and more to make sure all went smoothly. Our non-Korean guests and Korean guests all enjoyed the food and variety. I would definitely recommend Shin Beijing if you want a simple and efficient group celebration.

This is good Korean Chinese food! It is fusion food so it is not authentic Chinese flavors. The crispy pork was very flavorful and crispy. The shredded pork with seafood was unique and included shrimp, sea cucumber scallop and more. They are known for their black bean noodle dish which was savory with onions and a tasty sauce. They also have a Korean seafood soup noodle dish with lots of ingredients inside. The restaurant is clean inside and upscale.

냉면,간짜장에 매운소스 추가, 탕수육 시켰는데 1. 짜장면이 한참 늦게 나옴 2. 매운소스 추가했으나 주문 누락됨 3. 간짜장에 있는 양파가 완전 생양파였음 4. 탕수육에 나오는 소스에 들어가는 재료가 매우 부실함. 하다못해 목이버섯 한개조차도 없었음 5. 계산할때 아멕스 카드 안받는다고함 다시는 안올것 같네요

We were able to order in the line, and got our food within 10 minutes once we finally sat down. I tried their handmade clam kalgusku soup and beef bulgogi. Both portions were generous. The kalguksu was incredible comforting, with chewy, long, freshly made noodles in a rich, savory broth that was packed with clams. The beef bulgogi was also delicious. It came with a side of salad and rice. The bulgogi was tender, well-merinated, and paired well together with the sides.

We ordered the medium bossam, galbi kalguksu, perilla seed kalguksu and spicy pork. There were 5 of us but the portions were so generous, we had enough food with some bossam left over. The bossam was amazing! The best we've tasted. We all loved the perilla seed kalguksu due to its taste and also bc it's so healthy for you. The owner came by to check how we liked the galbi kalguksu since it was a newly created dish and we told her that it was delicious, seasoned just right. Before the meal, as they brought out the side dishes, they brought out barley rice with denjang on top to mix with yeol-moo kimchi. That was a special touch. We absolutely loved the food there. I saved the info so that we can return when we visit Koreatown again in the near future. Highly recommend this place to anyone who craves exceptional Korean food.

Yuzu Limeade ($7) and although I liked the drink because it had a strong yuzu and lime taste, I wouldn't recommend getting it with a yuzu flavored ramen because it takes away the yuzu flavor in the ramen.

Got their signature Yuzu Shio which was about $10 (normally $19.50!!), as well as their Afuri Roll which the server recommended ($23). The ramen rather had a small portion, but was balanced and pretty good - and the broth was definitely on the lighter tasting side, good for people who wants a cleaner taste. I ended up using chili oil on the side to spice things up. The Afuri Roll wasn't anything special, and a bit on the dry side but it had a nice variety of different fish inside. Overall, considering all the other competitive ramen joints in the area that have a more competitive price/portion/variety, I'm not sure if I'd give this place another go given the price. Great vibes though!

So shocked I hadn't heard about this place sooner but if you love pasta and don't want to spend $30…read moreon every dish this is the place to go! Loved that it had some classic dishes and some fusion ones as well. Came on a Friday night and joined the waitlist but only had to wait about 10 minutes! There was complimentary bread and a side salad that came with the entrees, and the bread was warm and delicious... We ordered the two Allegro specials on the menu-- Uni pasta and Bolognese. For appetizers we went with the server's recommendation; chicken gizzard confit. Chicken gizzard confit was mind blowing. As someone who enjoys things like gizzard, these were cooked in a way I had never had before and it was delicious. The uni pasta was sooo rich, creamy, and flavorful. 10/10 I would recommend it. The bolognese was good too it was super complex compared to the ordinary bolognese and had eggplants as well. Overall, the ambience was great and experience was amazing.

Once step inside, the decoration, the vibe totally changed. It's a dark hue with humbling yet elegant setting with a bar table and I almost felt like a dining in the cave ambiance. The menu was not complicated and only focused on pasta, but there are so many choices to my liking! The squid ink, the mentai cream, the uni sauce, and the garlic butter sauce. We ended up settling with Creamy Crab Gratin, mentai cream pasta, the Pescatore Bianca (seafood spaghetti), and Tarako Spaghetti (Cod roe and squid garlic butter sauce). -Crab Gratin is really creamy and cheesy. I just didn't quite get why there are a few pieces of penne pasta inside. But overall tasted good! -All pasta comes with bread and salad. The salad is really fresh and serve mostly lettuce and cherry tomato, which is how I like it. The dressing is not the ranch creamy kind, more cloudy vinaigrette based, also to my liking. -Seafood spaghetti came with a variety of seafood, shrimp, squid ring, mussels, clams, etc. The portion is huge. -Mentai cream pasta: delicious! I think if I order uni pasta, it'll be the same cream base sauce but with uni and $6 bucks more. I'm happy with my choice. The whole dish is consistent, creamy with a slight kick from the mentai, slices of mushrooms and shredded seaweeds on the top. Delish! -Tarako Spaghetti: I took a small bite and appreciated the strong taste of garlic butter in the sauce. -All 3 pasta are served with the thin spaghetti like angel hair. Service is ok, we asked for water refill and the response was polite. Dirty dishes were taken away timely. If I had more time, I would definitely come back for a second visit. A place like this deserves to be in a more upscale block on the street. Btw, parking inside the plaza is not free even though it's just a strip mall. Expect about $8 bucks for dinner parking. It's gated entrance. If you get lucky, you can park on the street and pay the meter.

That said, with most dishes priced at over $20, I think there are stronger options nearby in Little Tokyo For a similar price, you can get a much more flavorful bowl of ramen that's also more filling. Portions here aren't particularly large, so while it's a fun place to sample something different, it may not be the best value if you're looking for a satisfying dinner
