    Galbi Jjim Specialty medium spicy
    Lily V.

    Came by again for a weekday night dinner with the family! When we entered our party was already seated in the back, but there was some people hanging around the entrance. We were a big crowd so had to split our large orders to one per table, it was a bit unusual in terms of timing as half our table ordered first and got rice first but we got our orders at the same time except rice was late (after the fire show). It didn't look super busy, they have plenty of tables available despite people waiting in the front, we came for a 5:30pm dinner so only a couple tables were full, however, we had to continuously flag someone to help us. At 6:30pm when the crowd really picked up, service was harder to get. The food was just as delicious, our side ordered nonspicy but somehow my kid found a few beef pieces spit as there was red pepper flakes, I don't remember it being on the nonspicy version. The banchan and rice were great with the meat, I think the nonspicy is much sweeter but I can taste the beef and sauce more since with the spicy version all I feel is pain. Overall, it was a nice dinner, we did have to ask a few times for more drinks and our other tables rice which not sure if they forgot or they took that long.

    Mini company event brought me here on a lunch on a Friday and this place continues to not disappoint. We ordered the galbi jim with extra rice cakes and cheese and 7 individual soup orders along with some dumplings. Personally a regular, now the co-workers were all new and never been here before are already talking about coming back lol. Galbi Jim - still amazing, ordered at level one spice, groundbreaking portion as usual and everything was fresh, tender, and bursting with flavor. I personally ordered the Teuk Galbi something soup and with a bit of sesame sauce and salt was a meal in itself. Soup broth is just right hiding the rice noodles, an assortment of onions and tender mouthwatering slabs of rib. The ambiance in here is lively and moderately loud when it's a full house. Ample seating - never have to wait too long and tons of parking. Our server that greeted and took care of us was Alex this run. Alex treated our group like VIPs and just earn this place 5 new regulars as my group was expressing regret not coming here sooner. Alex made the entire experience smooth like a mini vacation rather than just any old restaurant. Will be coming back for lunch also from now on. Other mentions of insane service include Vic ultra friendly and knows exactly what I'm going to order now - my favorite insomnia visits, Ted, Senna(sp?), and Wang. All of them remember us, give us the VIP treatment turning this restaurant into something I look forward to. What's crazy is I see them taking care of everyone around us with equal passion. Benchmark breaking service. Continue to highly recommend this place and yes it's really 24 hours!

    I believe this is the galbi jjim with cheese

    I've been to sun nong dan a few times and I really enjoy it! This most recent time, we got the galbi jjim with cheese on top - so good! It's so yummy with purple or white rice. It's definitely comfort food and makes me feel so warm and cozy eating it. I highly recommend it on a cold day especially. I loved the potatoes, carrots, rice cakes as well as the ribs of course. Also very cool They also give you side dishes to enjoy, unfortunately I didn't get any photos but there were a few things..I liked the kimchi! Service was great. I feel like the galbi jjim took awhile to serve, but that's understandable. They cut off the meat for you as well as torch the galbi jjim which is a great photo/video op time! There are also some lollipops if you want a dessert - my niece and nephew love this part haha. Ambiance is open spacing and lots of seating. It's definitely more casual than fancy, but a good place if you've been dating for awhile or to catch up with a friend. You can definitely have a large party here and since it's open 24 hours it's great for late nights!

    Every time we drive down from the Bay Area to LA, this is the first stop. The galbitang broth is crystal clear but don't let that fool you, the beef flavor is deep and serious, the kind that only comes from hours of proper cooking. They serve the beef two ways, sliced and on the bone, which makes the whole bowl a multisensory experience. We always build it with purple rice, goji berries, and mushrooms, then drag everything through the dipping sauce with fresh onions and peppers. Generous portions and great value. Service is hit or miss depending on how busy they are, and when it's packed the place gets loud and chaotic, bright lights and wall to wall tables. But open 24/7 means you can always find a quieter window. A family staple every time we hit LA.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Came here 11:30pm after a movie, one of few places other than Denny's that were still open. (Even the good ol' 24-hour ABC Cafe in MPk closes at 1:00am now.) Ordered #8 Galbi Tang (beef rib and brisket soup). The clear broth is excellent and comes with glass noodle. The banchans are some of the best I've had -- cabbage kimchee, radish kimchee, and green chive kimchee (my fave!) The only con is the tough beef ribs. Loved the tender brisket slices.

    02/14/26 Saturday We called to order before 10:30 AM and go there around 10:28 AM. Order was ready by the time we arrived. We paid when we picked up. #13 Yuk Gae Jang was kinda oily and pretty spicy. Still tasty. Umami packed. I diluted it a bit at home by adding more meat and veggies. #4 Do Ga Ni Tang - the meat was a little rancid and some chunks were very tough. It's like they used old cooked meat and reheated it for me + some cuts not long enough cooking time. The creamy broth was still consistent and delicious though. Very jiggly when chilled so we know it's full of collagen! Surprised and happy they haven't raised the prices for their breakfast special. Still $11.99 + $1 for takeout. The only downside to takeout is that you can't get refills on your sides.

    Open 24 hours! Great for late night meals and get together with friends. Can get busy at times but they move things along pretty well. Service is friendly and efficient. Good size restaurant and seating area, despite being busy at times. Their food is delicious. You can order for yourself, such as the tang broths or share a Galbi Jjim with your party. A lot of parties get it with the cheese on top of their Galbi - definitely Instagram worthy when they pull out the flame blower. Personally think it tastes great without, but you can't go wrong either way. One of the few places that open 24 hours AND serves great food. Check it out!

    Came here and ordered a large size of Galbi Jjim to share for 4 people. It comes with 4 rice and you can choose from white or purple grain rice (recommend purple). Large portion is good for 4-5 people depending how much each person eats. If you add cheese for an extra cost you can see how they melt it. Ban chan or side dishes are complimentary and included. When you finish you can ask for me. We like to mix it in with our galbi jjim. Water or barley tea options are complimentary. Water tasted like good filtered water. Free and easy to find parking in parking lot. Restaurant is clean with good air conditioning. Lots of indoor seating. Highly recommend.

    I came here for both breakfast and lunch! I had their ox knee tang for breakfast and the soup was good but the meat was all tendon so if you like chewy tendon then you will like it. I like the lunch where i had the #25 which had galbijim and two other meats. We added on cheese and rice cakes which i think makes it so much better. It comes with 3 bowls of rice.

    24/7 is perfect because you can come here after drinking to sober up. Soupy things are always the best cure. I also love the leek? kimchi. I am still getting number 7 but my friend love their sulong tang. I feel like that one is too plain but thats why you have to add the salt. Did they give less food than before? Not sure but from my pictures it seems like they did. Anyway still one of my favorite spots to go to.

    cheese goodness!

    Food - yummy, very flavorful Service - quick. got what we need without having to ask twice Ambiance - spacious and bright there's a handwritten sign inside saying they're open 24/7...?

    My first time eating here finally tried it and the food was delicious!!!! Service was great and the vibe here is welcoming. Lots of room but I heard it gets really packed evening time wait is about an hour or so. The soup is marked with a star means you need to flavor it the ones without already has flavor. I got the #8 and I'm so happy with my pick it was amazing. We will try the plate next time cause it's a bit pricey but worth it if you share with 4 plus people.

    Recently went to this Sun Nong Dan location as it's the closest to me! Well lit, clean and plenty of staff support, at least that's what it seemed like, but it was more bussers than server I think. We were seated in the center aisle and I couldn't help but wonder if that's why our service was lacking. After being seated, we had to flag down staff everytime from taking our order, to asking for to-go containers, to asking for the bill. On top of that, it almost seemed like our table was just not in sight for any servers so it would take a long minute of us raising our hand for someone to notice. We even had to just get up and get somethings ourselves. Onto the food: The soups here are amazing. All the ones we tried (bone broth and spicy) were soothing, good portion of toppings, and just hitting on those rainy days. We also of course ordered the infamous braised short ribs (no cheese), and compared to other times/locations I've had it, this time lacked a bit. The meat was tender, but the pieces were cut so uneven and a good amount of bone pieces that barely had meat on them. The rice cakes and potatoes were too soft, where the potatoes were melding into mash potatoes in the sauce. I also personally wish there was more sauce this time. I would still consider dining here cause it's the closest location to me, but some things to be mindful of and hope my next visit is more on par to the other locations!

    Still Our Favorite Tofu Spot -- Had to Bring the Family This Time!…read more Of course we had to come back to our favorite tofu spot, and this time we brought the family for a belated Mother's Day dinner after raving about this place nonstop. Best part? We saw Shelly, our favorite girl that works here! She's always so sweet, kind, and welcoming every single time we visit. It honestly makes the experience even better when you're greeted by familiar friendly faces. We came around 7:30 PM and the wait was only about 10 minutes, which honestly wasn't bad at all considering how popular this place gets. Service was quick, efficient, and the food kept coming out fast. Plenty of tables inside, so it never felt too cramped. This time around we ordered: * Jap Chae * Bulgogi with Beef & Seafood Tofu Combo * Spicy Pork w/ seafood & beef combo * Teriyaki Chicken w/ seafood & beef tofu * Bulgogi with All Seafood & Beef Tofu Combo And of course... the unlimited refills of the banchan are always one of the best parts. Honestly, sometimes I think I could make a full meal out of just those alone. Everything was flavorful, comforting, and exactly why we keep coming back every couple of months. I will say the prices have slowly been creeping up little by little each visit, but honestly, we still enjoy it every time. Still our go-to tofu spot and definitely one we'll continue bringing family and friends to. Happy eats!

The corn cheese was just okay to me but it got cold and hard really fast. For the meats, we tried a lot of different things. Usually beef belly is one of my favs but I thought this one was a bit thick and hard. All the other cuts though were incredible, like the beef tongue, galbi, flat iron, and pork jowl. The pork jowl was actually both our favorites because it just melted in our mouths! They were quick with changing our grills and asking us if we wanted more meats so service was great! I'd come back if I was in the area but probably wouldn't drive out just for this place.
