I LOVE TOFU SOUP!…read more this place was quite busy when we walked in but we were seated immediately. parking was pretty narrow and limited in the adjacent spots but there were so many people i think they just park on the streets and walk, it's not very far. ambiance is cool they had an aquarium for me to stare at. i really liked the both of my beef tofu soup. it was served with purple rice which was pretty cool. we also ordered the rice cakes with ramen noodles and that was actually pretty spicy, spicer than my medium-level spice broth. but super good! the chicken in the combo was delicious and sizzling as well. overall i don't really have anything negative to say. servers were attentive and were more than accommodating to replace one of our items when the lid of the vinegar dispenser flew off and turned my friends cold noodles into vinegar soup essentially. big fan!

Whoever said good sondubu is only available in Ktown or BCD?!…read more I always crave sondubu when it's cold, when I'm feeling under the weather, or honestly just in general. This is my go-to spot in the area whenever that craving hits, and I genuinely think it's one of the best. The biggest plus for me is that I don't have to drive to Ktown. This restaurant also has its own parking lot, which is a bonus, but parking around the area in general isn't too hard either. The place is small so it can get busy, but the wait is usually never that bad. The food is really good and tastes homey and comforting. It seems like a family-owned business, so the vibe feels really cozy. The staff are also super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!

Tucked away in LA Crescenta, it's a hidden AYCE KBBQ spot that is pretty affordable for lunch!…read more We were seated right away for a group of 4. We came around 3 and were able to get the lunch special. The servers were attentive and great about refilling the salads and banchan. The egg souffle was tasty as well! The selection isn't huge but the meats were still good. The boneless rib was our favorite as it was tender and flavorful. If you're in the area, I recommend coming here for KBBQ instead of heading down to KTown for lunch!

She is so lackadaisical when it comes to customer service and give us the air that she is superior and she shouldn't be doing this lowly position... And for whatever reason she keeps not allowing people to use the bathroom in a restaurant and to my knowledge a restaurant has to have a function in bathroom.. At least a shrub and a running hose?

I've loved KimBob-Rex (now Sushi Rex) since they were a food truck! I first tried these amazing…read moresushi burritos when I was in the Ocean Park area of Santa Monica and was immediately hooked. Every disappointment, setback, or challenge at work was healed with a sushi burrito from Kimbobrex :) I'm so glad they are a brick and mortar restaurant now and have had the chance to visit a few times. I love the Spicy Rex Burrito and the Sashimi. The onion sauce is diiiiivine. My mom adores their yellowtail collar! Service is so friendly and warm. You can really tell how much love and care goes into each burrito and dish. Fish is fresh and portions are pretty hefty. Dining area is lovely with the cutest plants and dino drawings. Please give these guys a try if you are in the area!!

I am not sure how this place got so many high ratings but it was one of the worst tasting sushi's…read moreI've ever tried. I ordered a baked Alaskan roll and salmon was stinky, slimy, and inedible! It must have been so old, I was STARVING and couldn't even force myself to eat it. Service was also ridiculously slow, there was one other customer when I was there, and I waited 20 minutes for one sushi order. Sushi and fish need to always be fresh and top quality because it goes bad quickly if not properly handled. I found myself regretting not getting ralphs sushi because that would've been 100x better. Please stop serving customers awful fish quality. If your fish expired or wasn't handled properly, have some integrity and THROW IT OUT.

I LOVE TOFU SOUP!!!…read more got the beef tofu soup and it was deliciousss. one of our group had burnt rice but the staff were quick to replace it. the spicy cucumber here is so good i ate like 2 plates honestly. i will say is that the spice scale isn't super accurate. i am pretty bad with spice so i got a mild and it was just ... alright... i feel like i was missing a lot of the flavor, not just heat level. my friends who got medium and spicy let me try their soups and they were way better and honestly not that much spicier. so i would say give a higher spice level a try if you want more flavor in your broth. we also ordered a bottle of soju to share and some of the spicy chicken. those were good too!

I can see why the reviews here are mixed. My lunch experience is here as a single diner with two…read moreother tables seated and one of those two finishing up. 4 patrons in total. When I arrived I was seen from way in the back but never greeted. I walked back after a couple minutes passed and the lady asked me how many and I said "1" and she said sit anywhere. Ok... so now I got a seat and a menu. I gave my order pretty quickly and it came out fast. I didn't get checked on much at all but the kimchi beef tofu soup was good, a little on the plain watery side, and the sides themselves were ok. Total price was $16.99, ~$18 with tax. As mentioned by others, don't expect BCD tofu house here - but for being outside of K town this place is just OK. The inside is nothing special but it gets the job done and it's cozy. It is in a Vons shared shopping plaza so I wasn't expecting anything past basic. It's always a good sign when you have other Koreans eating at a Korean restaurant. As I was leaving there were 5 Korean patrons newly seated and seemed like it wasn't their first time. Overall Food = 3.5 Service = 2 Ambiance = 3 I might return but there are likely better places in the area worth checking out that have better service and quality.

Our food came out fast, since we arrived before the crowds on a Sunday evening. Had the amazing Mackerel with Soybean soup, first time I have eaten a whole fish in my life.

I didn't partake on the Bulgogi, but heard it was delicious too, just a little pricey for dinner. I think lunch would have some combo specials. Definitely will come back.

A new pho and noodle place! Saw that this had recently opened in La Crescenta and wanted to check…read moreit out. We went around 7 PM and ordered two bowls of pho, the meatball and rare steak and brisket (#4 and #3). The meatballs in the pho were quite tough and rubbery, wouldn't recommend that as the protein option. The steak was pretty good though. The noodles were standard, as well. They provide the typical toppings, bean sprouts and onions and cilantro. The limes they gave us were pretty dry though, we struggled to squeeze any juice out. There was a small fly in my soup, but probably not from the kitchen - likely just flew in while I was eating. The ambiance was relatively quiet, clean interior and bathroom. There is ample parking and the pricing is fair. Overall, solid noodle shop.
