    Duk and mandoo gook
    Iris K.

    Just tried this place because my friend was craving sujebi, and I really enjoyed it. I had the duk and mandoo gook, which you can choose whether your mandoo is meat or kimchi mandoo or a combo of both. First time I was asked what type of mandoo I wanted in my soup, which was really nice. My Husband had the pumpkin sujebi, which was really light and tasty. We also shared a combo steamed mandoo appetizer, and the vegetable mandoo was so good! I really enjoyed the food. Everything felt like home cooking/ your grandmother's cooking. I felt like I was eating at home, and I would definitely go back if I am craving sujebi or duk and mandoo gook.

    Making fresh kimchi dumplings

    This savory dumpling shop is unique, and I rank it as high as any of my favorite Chinese dumpling restaurants such as Luscious Dumplings and Ding Tai Feng. The Sisters (or lady friends) are busy making fresh dumplings almost continuously. In addition to all of their dumplings, they have some excellent dishes such as: chilled buckwheat noodles with vegetables, fermented soy bean (stinky tofu) soup, kalguksu with mushroom and perilla, and many other wonderful dishes.

    If you want to taste authentic Korean-style dumplings, I highly recommend this place. As soon as you walk in, you can see the owner handcrafting each dumpling herself. That's how fresh and tender they are, and the taste is reminiscent of homemade dumplings just like mom used to make. It definitely feels like no artificial flavoring is used, so the taste is mild and not overly seasoned. If you're craving traditional Korean-style dumpling soup or kalguksu (hand-cut noodle soup), give this place a try!

    떡만두국 / Rice Cake Dumpling Soup
    Keesha F.

    Ordered the dumpling soup (mixed dumpling) with rice cake. Came with radish, kimchi, and pickled bean sprouts plus a small cup of barley tea (cold) Everything was tasty but I must say that the service was quite suspicious. I should point out first, that I've ordered delivery from here quite a few times.. First thing that got my attention on their Yelp reviews is the great service and how sweet the servers are. It was cold and rainy so I thought what a great day to pop in and eat at the restaurant.. I didn't receive any of the service everybody was glowing about.. Actually, One of the ladies seemed to go out of her way NOT to serve me; while giving all the groups around me top tier service!! She even went as far as coming directly towards me- I smile and wave her down and ask for napkins (she's looking directly at me) and she turns to pack up to go orders!. I tried to overlook it and just enjoy my food but Sisters Dumpling is a rather small restaurant and she was pretty blatant! The craziest thing was the older lady handed her my check; she started walking towards me then turned back around and hands it back to her.. Note: There wasn't a language barrier because I heard her communicate effectively with another table. I don't know? Sad that stuff like this is still going on in this world!

    This place is an authentic Korean-style dumplings...yes there are plenty of places both in LA and OC but this just makes me keep eating it til it all gone. And of course, what better way than a hot kimchi soup to wash it down with. Just simply delish. The place is small and clustered but well organized and cleanliness. The parking lot is small so plan accordingly. The service felt like being at home and being taken care of. I don't speak nor being a Korean (still Asian) but they treat you very kindly and very helpful. Yup, definitely coming back again for sure.

    Food was good! The ladies were super nice. Service was quick! Soybean noodle didn't taste like I used to have back in Korea. It is just different style ?? Cuz the taste was good. I'd like to come again to try other menu tho. The customers were mostly mid aged Korean. Not too loud. No music. I went there on weekdays for lunch! Parking is easy. If you want to have some Korean noodles but don't want to deal with ktown parking, you can come here!

    Food: this review is long overdue since I have been coming here for a while. This is my mom's favorite place, and she orders one thing - red bean porridge. She says there's no other place in socal that makes the dish as well as they do. Unfortunately, I'm not a big fan of red bean, so I always end up ordering something else like kalgooksu or sujebi, which are decent but not mind-blowing amazing . But for the sake of my lovely mother, this place deserves 5 stars Price: most dishes range $17-20, which I think are pretty average for ktown food nowadays Ambiance: decent sized restaurant with about 10 ish tables inside, I don't think I've seen any non koreans sitting inside every time I came here. Inside is clean and brightly lit with lots of sunlight, vibe is mostly for quick meals with family or casual friends Service: the korean ladies making food and serving are nice, mostly speak exclusively korean, never had issues making my order and getting my dishes Parking: there's a free parking lot in the front associated with the strip mall, where the restaurant is located, there's usually an available spot, not too busy

    Seafood Kalguksu (Seafood Fish Broth and Knife Cut Noodles) very flavorful!
    Kay Y.

    What a cute and wholesome spot! This place is ran and dishes are legitimately made by two sisters lol I was famished after running errands all day. This spot happened to be the closest to me (with parking mind you lol) I tried their Seafood Kalguksu (knife cut noodles/pasta) and the broth was so flavorful. I feel like I got a taste of Korea's entire delicious sea! Lol I think Kalguksu is too hearty for me. I'd def ask to sub for Buckwheat noodles next time. I was so stuffed, I couldn't finish the pasta. But I did eat all the seafood and veggies. Soup was great too! Def give this spot a try if you are near by or feeling adventuring out. Service was so nice and prompt!

    All the banchan! (I ate most of the Kim chee before I remembered to take the photo...)

    Delicious homemade food made by wonderful people right while you eat. Small and quiet, it's nice to sit surrounded by Korean elders and kids and everyone in between. This place is a gem.

    My favorite place. Since a bit far from the center of K town, this place is quiet and easy for parking. They have various authentic food selection including hand made dumplings. Everything is tasty!

    I was on a hunt for Korean kalguksu and stumbled on this little gem! Bonus points for free and plenty parking. They are located in a plaza. I know they are known for their dumplings - even saw an employee hand making them while I was eating there - but I was cold and wanted noodles! Their chicken kalguksu was pretty good. Tasty broth and chewy knife cut noodles. They also gave radish, fish cake, and kimchi as their sides. An employee said the spicy paste was for the soup but I opted against using it. I did find the broth to be more on the bland side in comparison to other kalguksus I've had but still a solid place!

    Soybean cold noodle soup
    Yuri J.

    Comforting, traditional Korean food - every dish is freshly made and so delicious. It's a small restaurant run by two of the sweetest ladies! They prepare each dish with care and it'll be my go-to restaurant when I want Korean soul food. The soybean (seasonal) cold noodle soup was delicious - the nuttiness of the soup broth and noodles was perfectioooon. The pumpkin sujebi soup with handtorn noodles was comforting and filling - love the texture of the sujebi and warming and flavorful broth. Portions are quite generous and filling! Parking lot too

    Alex K.

    Just like the restaurant name, there are always lady sisters making dumplings, so we know their dumplings are all made in-house. Nothing to fancy, kinda old atmosphere, the restaurant is not even located in the middle of Ktown. However, this restaurant is one of few you can feel your grandmother cooked for you.

    "Steamed dumpling plate" comes with 10 good sized dumplings. (Spoon added for scale)

I really wanted authentic Korean food that was not kbbq and not tofu and this place delivered! This restaurant is in a small strip mall. The strip mall has other Korean food options. They have a valet parking system of sorts but we didn't pay, we self parked. The attendant told us we were fine. It was approx 9pm when we arrived and also a week night. I have no idea how much valet parking is here. We were a small party of two. Upon arrival, we were notified they were out of RICE. Um..what?? That's a good problem (for them to have) but not for consumers. I feel this really limited our options to just soup. I honestly didn't want soup but there wasn't much else we could order. The bowls were large and came out piping hot. It was a satisfying meal and not too heavy. The price point was on the pricey side. Our waiter told us business has not been the same post covid. Some dishes are between $40-$60. I asked for a soup and they were able to make it less spicy. My friend got a soup with dumplings in it. He put a good amount of soy sauce to give the broth some life. Also, the banchan is on point. We asked for a refill and devoured the second portions. If you wanna impress friends with Korean food, bring them here! Its a casual place.

Also they were cleaning the kitchen while serving food which was kinda not sanitary with all the water splashing on the floor of the kitchen while they were making food. Overall it's not what it used to be and cleaning the kitchen while making and serving food is not a good combo.

Comes with a soy bean paste that you use to further season. Just mix everything in a larger bowl and serve. OMG. Absolutely incredible!!!!!!!!!!

Additionally three different sides are also served (acorn jelly salad, Korean escargot/snail dish, steamed cabbage), along with perilla chicken soup, and soy bean soup, the latter which is the most traditional Korean dish.

In fact, we regularly brought visitors here. They raved about how good the spare ribs were and even insisted that their last meal before LA should be at Ham Ji Park.  Here's my belated review of what I consider the best spare ribs in LA. From the moment the Korean-style spare ribs arrived at the table, it was clear this was a dish worth savoring. Each rib bore a beautifully charred exterior--deeply caramelized without a hint of bitterness--offering that irresistible smoky aroma the moment it was placed before us. The glaze was nothing short of spectacular. A perfect balance of sweet and spicy, it clung to the meat with a glossy sheen that promised flavor in every bite. There was just enough heat to make your taste buds sit up and pay attention, but it never overwhelmed the deeper, richer notes of the sweet components. But what truly set these ribs apart was the texture. Beneath the charred surface lay meat so tender it practically fell off the bone with the gentlest tug of a fork. Each bite was juicy and succulent, the result of careful cooking and a respect for quality ingredients. Ham Ji Park, you will be missed. Thank you for the memories. Thank you for the food.

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.
