One of the biggest draws is that they're open 24/7, which is surprisingly hard to find these days. I'll definitely be back to see what the late-night crowd is like. The service was attentive and friendly throughout the meal. We ordered the Mo Deum Soo Yook (assorted boiled pork), and it was excellent. The variety of cuts kept every bite interesting, and the portion was generous enough to comfortably feed four adults. It's the perfect dish to pair with a few bottles of soju. I found that adding a little salt and pepper really brought out the flavors, and the broth became richer and more satisfying as the meal went on. The quality, generous portions, and round-the-clock hours make this a spot that's easy to recommend. The 24/7 availability is a huge bonus, especially when you're craving comforting Korean food at odd hours. read more

Sun Nong Dan - Mo deum soo yook - Korean Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Delicious food! The sides were so good my friend and I almost finished them before the meal came. We got the galbi jim with cheese and they torched it right by the table. Everything was so full of flavor and hot when it arrived. The medium size is definitely enough for 2 people maybe even 3-4. We had enough leftovers to last another day or 2. The service was quick when it came to seating and ordering. One thing I didn't like was when it came to paying there was no clarification on if we wanted to half it or pay in full and the server had brought the card reader immediately and placed it in front of me while standing there waiting and watching the tip amount. Don't love when places do that. While the food was good they didn't check on us throughout the meal, which can be fine, however we had to ask for sodas mid meal. While the restaurant was busy it wasn't loud to where it created a difficult time of conversing between groups. I would say the check in service needs to be worked on because there had been a group in front of us that stated their party number and didn't move so we were waiting for a bit just for seating. Otherwise would go here again for the food. read more

I had lunch here with coworkers the other day and the experience was pretty good. We had a table of 8 and didn't need to wait to be seated. Surprising consisting it was the lunch rush. It was my first time here so I tried the Seok Uh Sulung Tang soup as it was recommended by one of my coworkers. They served it with a side of purple rice and quite a number of banchan side dishes. You do get served water in paper cups though. The soup was ok. If you like tonkotsu broth, it's similar; slightly different flavor profile, but close enough. I would recommend adding little scoops of the salt until it has the flavor you like. Also, add in the green onions as that's a nice addition to the broth. You will find glass noodles at the bottom of the bowl with cuts of beef tendon and brisket on top. It's a hearty soup but I think there are definitely better options on the menu. Would I recommend this place? Yes, as the soup was decent, service was good, and I noticed quite a few dishes that I would have ordered if it was dinner. read more

First time here, it was so good! My new favorite spot for Chadol Sulung Tang! Loved all the side dishes and soup. I'll definitely be back, although I drove 40 min to come here, it was worth it. Parking is a bish tho!! This plaza is super busy so definitely not easy to find parking... if you get tired of circling, park across the street at Ranch99. read more

A must go when me and my family come down to SoCal, we go to diff locations depending on which one we're closest to. I usually save my stomach for the Galbi Jjim but my family devoured the side dishes. The service was pretty quick but it did take a while for the Galbi Jjim to arrive (although thay might have just been because I was hungry) and the servers were really nice. Ambiance wise it was loud but not loud enough that you couldn't hold a conversation with other people. read more

Sun Nong Dan - Large Galbi Jjim With Cheese And Extra Galbi - Korean Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Came here with a group of friends after a long weekend. I expected this to be similar to BCD tofu, but it was not the same. Their portions of soup were very large. And their Galbi Jjim was very large and tasty with the melted cheese and sauce intermixing. The service was speedy despite that we had a party of 12. I would definitely split the pile of meat with friends next time! read more

Been wanting to come back since theres no galbijjim places near us in sac. Came around 6:30 on monday, was busy but once our whole party was here we got seated. Ordered the same thing, 2 large galbijjim (115$) both mild level. Mild level was not spicy imo, the squid side dish was spicier than mild lol, still good flavoring. Service was honestly not that great, they are quite busy but when we needed things we needed to wave them down every time and they never check on us without us waving them down. read more

Sun Nong Dan is a great place for your late night cravings or hang over meal. Open 24 hours so always available. I've been to their other locations and they're all consistent in their service and quality of food. A good amount of seating, but I have been here when there's a wait. Late night eating is usually not a problem. Get their broths or stews, can't go wrong with either. Our usual is the #3 soup and the Galbi Jjim. You can get the Galbi Jjim with cheese - which is quite a show. I prefer it without. The medium size is good enough for 4 people. You can choose spice level and we get medium - it has good flavor and spice, but not too spicy where you can't enjoy. Sun Nong Dan is a solid place and worth adding to your list of places to eat. read more

She got the brisket with dried cabbage because you know she want the quality m**t. Got me the oxtail cause you know I like to get a lil freaky when I'm down to the bone. Who the hell am I smh. Also soju is 14/15 for flavored Meaty and just ever so slightly a lil too murky for my taste. That said, when you dip that succulent m**t into absolutely anything or with your assorted accoutrements... Honey, you'll feel like ratatouille when he mixes the lime with the coconut and shakes it all up (but with b**f and bonchan). Is it the best? Maybe not. But is it the most reliable any m ANY GIVEN HOUR OF ANY GIVEN DAY FOR ANY OF THE 24HRS OF. ANY. DAY. I rest my case. PS please dip your m**t in every bonchan sauce (sabao) available you'll thank me later read more

Sun Nong Dan - Oxtail and brisket with dried cabbage. And extra desire - Korean Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Sun Nong Dan is definitely not overhyped. There's a reason why this place is always packed and why the wait can easily hit an hour or more. If you're planning for dinner, best advice is to get there before 6 PM. Otherwise, don't be surprised if you end up eating after 7 because they don't take reservations, only a waiting list. Their famous Galbi Jjim (braised beef short rib) is an absolute must-order. Tender, flavorful, rich, and worth every bit of the hype. My family also ordered the assorted cuts of beef plate, and that was amazingly good too. Everything came out hot, hearty, and satisfying. Overall, we all left full, happy, and already talking about coming back again. Definitely worth the wait. read more

Came for dinner with my friends and I. It took a while for someone to acknowledge us and take our order but it was a Friday night so it was pretty busy. This is my first time trying sun bong dan despite all the hype around it I did not enjoy it . I've had other galbi jjims at other Korean restaurants in ktown and OC and they were so much better. I will say that their rice cakes were really good and chewy but why does it cost so much just to add cheese on top. In addition the galbi jjim was not tender at all. I think it wasn't ready to be served and needed to be braised longer since it was a jaw work out trying to chew through the tendon. For the premium price I was expecting high quality beef but it also seems that they use less premium beef ribs. Instead of sun nong Dan I would check out other Korean restaurants that definitely have better galbi Jjim. I do appreciate that they're open 24/7. read more

Our kids decided for this place for dinner while in So Cal. I would say it was delicious, the presentation of the food was beautiful. There was 6 of us and we ordered the XL (pictured) and I also wanted the Beef cheek soup as I didn't want rice. Between the 6 of us, we couldn't not finish it and for the price, it was reasonable. We went there around 7 on a Friday night and it was not busy, we got a table right away. It does get loud but we are still able to hear each other. I would come back again and totally recommend this place. read more

This morning, I met up with a friend for breakfast/brunch. My friend was running late and thankfully I was able to take a seat while waiting and order our food. Our Beef Sullungtang and Yuk Gae Jang came out super quickly. I loved how flavorful the Yuk Gae Jang was and how much was included in the soup. I would definitely return to try their other menu items read more

Love Sun Nong Dan, both the Rowland Heights and San Gabriel location. The food is always so yummy here and I love both their soups and galbi platters. 4.5 stars from me. This location is located in a plaza with several other businesses so its usually always packed with people. Parking may be a little difficult but the food is worth it. There was little to no wait and my party of 4 was seated quickly. It took a little bit to get some service as the place was packed on a Thursday night but we ordered right when the waiter came. The food took around 10-15 mins to come which wasn't too bad but I was definitely getting hangry after a long day lol. But the galbi was so plentiful, tender and delicious. The potatoes were also really soft and tasty. The sauce tasted perfect with the rice and although the food was a little greasy and definitely needed to be eaten with water, it was still so delicious. We also got cheese with ours that they melted with a blowtorch in front of us which was fun. I brought a friend who was a first timer and she loved it and even wanted to bring her family who was from out of town here. It is a little expensive at $100+ after tip and tax, but there was also plenty of leftovers for the four of us that we took home which I was able to eat a second helping the next day. I wish the service was a little better as I would've liked more water multiple times and napkins. Nonetheless, food was delicious and I can't wait to come back again and try a soup as well. read more

You know what you want after a long night of karaoke and drinking soju - and it's some decadent Korean comfort food. This review is going to be short and sweet - get the Koh Galbi Jjim if you're in a group of 4 or more w/cheese and some ban Chan and you'll be good to go! read more

Sun Nong Dan - Menu - Korean Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Parking: Easy, open, free I came here with a party of 4 adults and two kids. We ordered the dumpling rice cake soup (kind of a disappointment cause it only came with 3 dumplings), the brisket with soup, and the galbijim. For all of us, it was about $250ish. The galbi jim was so good. We added the $8 worth of cheese and it really added to the dish. I really enjoyed this with the rice and the generous banchan. As for the brisket, it paled in comparison to the galbi jim. I think there was an order you eat it in and I ate incorrectly. I ate a small portion of leftovers the next day and I thought it was good but not something I would order again. All in all, I would come back but I think I would avoid a few dishes. read more

I love sun nong Dan Nothing beats a good ol nice delicious bone broth for a quick hangover cure This location opens 24/7 anytime of the day u can come for a nice delicious fresh authentic Korean soup like at grandmas house The delicacy is one of the best places in town, the service is fast and friendly with d nice good interior design Hot soup and meat = happiness read more

Sun Nong Dan is iconic and amazing! They are known for their galbi-jjim which is well worth the price! We got the large deluxe version or Koh version that comes with the oxtail + the cheese add on. Next time, I would order just the regular version because the galbi meat is my favorite but it was fun to have the variety of meats in the dish! The best part are the potatoes soaking up the sauce! The service was great and everyone was very kind! They did the cheese melting show for us, but overall they were very attentive and communicative throughout the meal! When we went, it wasn't too busy so we were seated immediately on a Sunday night! The inside is huge as well and the vibes are lively! There is plenty of parking spots too as it's situated in a large plaza! Definitely recommend having Sun Nong Dan once in your life!! read more

We came late around 11pm on a Saturday night, but it was still very busy. Love that it's 24/7. Mul mandu (water aka steamed dumplings - think Xiao long bao without the soup because they were all busted) were tasty. Just wanted something to snack on and this hit the spot to start our meal. The banchan was decent, a handful of items - cabbage kimchi, radish, chives, and squid (?) We had to order the galbijjim which there's not much more to say that all other reviews haven't already. Tender pieces of beef short rib meat (and bones) with rice cakes, potatoes, carrots, in a delicious stew. Amazing over rice. I docked a star since I've had other galbijjim that was way more fall off the bone - these ones required hands and gnawing to get every bit of meat. Iykyk. Still great flavor, perfect spice. Had it with the purple rice (they referred to it as brown). They also serve it with dipping sauce for the meat (onion with jalapeno) that's usually found at kbbq places - great sauce. Floors were a bit sticky. No issues with parking since there's a huge lot. read more

No wait on a saturday for lunch. service was prompt! We ordered #10 Won Gi Tang short rib/ox tail soup and Yuk Gae Jang spicy beef and leek soup- both came out shortly after the ban chan. The soups are good but nothing special outside of all the other korean soup spots. would skip entirely next time! The star of the show however, was amazing. We were stuffed but couldnt stop eating the galbi jjim, and the flaming torch was a fun presentation! The large was for 4-5 people but we couldn't finish, so the 115$ + cheese and tteokbokki (added another 15$) was well worth the price. The meat was good quality, all tender, and so juicy. Potatoes melt into the sauce and were so addictive- tteokbokki had a nice al dente chew. Overall under 200$ for 5 people and its an LA staple spot- come for the galbi, skip the soups read more

They ended up giving me a credit for the next time I come for the bad portion size. I do think takeout is still worse since it usually comes with two small bone in short ribs. Whereas, every time I go in person there's at least 2 big ones or 3 smaller ones in the soup. read more

(10 stars -- five stars was never enough) Sun Nong Dan 18902 Gale Ave, Rowland Heights, CA 91748 Sun Nong Dan is not a restaurant. It's a public service. 3am before an interstate road trip and everyone is feral? Solved. 4am kimchee craving that refuses to negotiate? Resolved. Kids hungry, adults tired, morale low? National emergency averted. The #9 beef bowl deserves its own fan club. Deep, rich, soul-hugging flavor that silences a table instantly -- no phones, no talking, just respectful chewing and eye contact with destiny. You physically cannot order wrong here. The menu protects you. If you're hungry, tired, road-tripping, parenting, or questioning your life choices at an ungodly hour -- don't walk. Sprint like the bowl is about to sell out. Highly recommended. Repeatedly. Without shame. Follow me for more reviews. Jordan read more

I'm a sucker for soup and for spots open 24/7, so Sun Nong Dan is my go-to spot for Korean soup when it's early in the morning and no other restaurants are really open. If you go around 8-9 am as I usually do, you shouldn't have to wait too long for a table. It definitely gets busy in the evening for dinner time, so that's something to consider. The staff is very nice, the restaurant itself is clean, and there is plenty of seating. Every time I'm here I order the #1 yang ji sulung tang. Such a comforting, clean broth. I don't add too much of the salt/pepper seasoning, but I usually pile on the green onion. The meat they use is nice and tender. And I also really enjoy the refreshing banchan they offer, especially the kimchi and the scallions. Side note: you know the soup is made well and is collagen-rich when your refrigerated leftovers are nice and solid. Sun Nong Dan is my ol' reliable when wanting a warm, quick, conforting meal that I can still enjoy later cos I always end up with leftovers! read more

Had a late-night craving and decided to stop by Sun Nong Dan 선농단 Rowland Heights, and it did not disappoint. The cheese-topped Galbi Jjim was the perfect comfort food after a long day. Watching the cheese get torched tableside added a fun touch, but the real star was the tender short ribs that practically fell off the bone.

My friend and I came here on New Year's Eve around 11:30 AM - because this restaurant is open 24/7, and they're open on the holidays we were expecting to wait a long time before being seated. However, this restaurant and their servers are very efficient and were seated within 10 minutes. The soup at the restaurant is definitely the highlight of the menu. I got the number 12 (Tta Roh Guk Bao - brisket and cabbage soup) & my friend ordered the number 13 (yuk gae jang - spicy beef and leek). Both were amazing and come with their delicious banchans. These piping hot soup orders really hit the spot on a raining day! Lastly, I MUST mention our fantastic server Alvin. Even though the restaurant was packed and busy on a holiday, he still went above and beyond to ensure that we were tended to. I really appreciate servers like him! read more

I've been going to Sun Nong Dan for years. Although I've been to all of their locations, I almost always frequent this one due to proximity. As far as Korean soups go, this place is great. I enjoy the side dishes, and I actually enjoy the fact that I get just a few but they're all good. The radish is my favorite! This spot is generally no frills, efficient service, and not too crazy of a wait. Service is generally quick and attentive, but they're straight to the point and aren't looking to idly chat. I'm a fan of that, personally, so it works well for me. For a solo eat, or a large group, this is a solid spot. The flavors are there and the fact that it's 24/7 is extremely convenient. read more

Couple of us decided to stop by for Sun Nong Dan's breakfast! Sun Nong Dan opens for 24 hours and it's rather large and traditional Korean restaurant. Service is good, they respond and smiles even though only a couple people running the front. We ordered #12 beef stew soup with white rice and #13 beef soup with purple rice. Both are spicy and tastes great! The ingredients the green onions, vegetables are plentiful. Soup is super flavorful, meat is given just enough for breakfast portion. It's still a lot, we can't finish the soups. Rice and small dishes are well made. Overall if you feel like eating something warm in winter - for us it's the spicy Korean beef soups, then this is your number one choice! With breakfast options in the morning this is no brainer! read more

Trust the waiter when he says that level 4 spicy is extremely spicy because my friends and I were suffering, but in the best way possible haha. I love Sun Nong Dan; I've been to their Ktown location and this spot is slightly closer to me and the food is just as good. Their galbi jjim with cheese is top tier and I really wish that Sun Nong Dan opened a location in OC because I'd stop by way more often. Their level 4 spiciness is killer but there's still great flavor and I would go for their level 3 spiciness next time. I'm a huge fan of rice cakes in general and their rice cakes are amazingly chewy. I regret not getting extra rice cakes in my galbijjim. Their banchan is also solid, I like their squid and radish banchan the most. The radish and kimchi was a good side dish for the galbijjim while we waited for our dish to arrive. read more

I recently visited Sun Nong Dan and had a great experience. I ordered the Galbi Tang, and the short rib was amazing. It was incredibly moist, tender, and full of flavor, making the dish both comforting and satisfying. The service was fast and efficient, and the wait was not long even on a busy night. Parking on a Friday can be a bit challenging due to the limited spots and nearby businesses, so I'd recommend parking across the street by 99 Ranch to save some time. Overall, it's a solid spot for Korean comfort food, and I would definitely come back again. read more

I wasn't planning on leaving a review for this place but the food was truly superb and customer service was great. I've never been to Sun Nong Dan before mainly because of the prices. So when my friend wanted to come here for her belated birthday, who am I to say no? We stopped by on a weekday night and it wasn't busy at all. I had the tta roh guk bap and it was so flavorful. They were super generous with the beef brisket; by the time I was finishing, I still had more meat left in my bowl than my actual soup. Totally worth the price! We were also given complimentary strawberry and banana milk by our waiter at the end -- huge thank you to him :) read more
