Its a good spot on sawtelle Ave, not too busy when other places are packed. The prices are very fair and the portions were sizable enough. I do not recommend the tofu soup with crab that my friend ordered. The crab was very small and difficult to get any meat out of it. The bibimbop combo was very good, Id order that again.

Seems like it has been around forever as it was part of the blossoming of Sawtelleas a food destination. Still great Korean food on the Westside.

The tofu soup is average, not the best out there. The restaurant is kinda empty for Saturday night when we stopped by, so we were able to sit right away. You have to order the side dishes separately, which was disappointing 😞

Food was pretty pricey, but portions were large and theres a great variety of sides offered. Service was fine, no complaints there. This is in an area where some restaurants have lines around the corner, this place is relatively low key and just as good.

Although the restaurant could be a little bit more tidier, the Korean bbq, tofu soup, and ramen were delicious and the staff was nice. The ramen broth was very savory. I ordered the tofu soup second to highest spice level and I should have maxed it out. I eat pretty spicy. There is a locked bathroom around the back of the restaurant, and you need to request for the key. Love the Sawtelle area!

I loved their tofu soup! I had a combo of denjang and bulgogi. The denjang soup with medium spice wasn’t too spicy. The bulgogi was sizzling and was well seasoned! Each comes with rice so I was very full after eating the combo. We also got a seafood pancake wish was yummy as well. We had a bibimbap, dolsot bibimbap, and pork katsu all as combos.The bath room is outside in the back of the building and you need a key to use. It was surprisingly clean!They’re definitely understaffed but trying their best.

The banchan was mid. The only part I liked was the mashed potatoes. Surprisingly the Kimchi was very bland and the Brocoli had way too strong of a garlic taste. For the main dish we ordered the ham sausage and Kimchi tofu soup and a beef tofu soup. The ham sausage Kimchi soup had an unpleasant sour taste, my guess is because of the not so great Kimchi. I was also pretty disappointed that there were only two small pieces of spam and a few pieces of sausage... and what surprised me even more was that the ham sausage Kimchi soup was more expensive than the beef soup! The beef tofu soup was also mid. For the price of everything we got, I wouldnt recommend.

This is my second time trying this place and both times have been a disappointment. I’ll start with today. I ordered the spicy cold noodles although the taste was fairly good there was no meat (not even a sliver), it wasn’t cold (it’s supposed to have ice), no ban chan (not even one), no vinegar (to add as preference). All I got was this bowl and chopsticks. There was only one server and three tables occupied but service was very slow.The first time was a couple months ago when I ordered tofu soup over the phone and realized I placed the order at the wrong place. I went to Seoul Tofu to pick up my food then realized my mistake. Came here and the server wasn’t very nice. Took my food home and it had an odd aftertaste. I still can’t figure out what it was but I ate my meal and decided to not try that again here.

I’m only giving 2 stars. Because previously ordered and was satisfied.unfortunately came here on a rainy day and was saddened to see how understaffed the place was. Only 3 people working and only one as a waitress/host . Ordered food to be ready at 1230 I arrive at 1235 and waited till 1250 as I seen my order out and cooling off my soup . I was ready to take food but the one person working didn’t want to help me because of the tables at the place. Very sad . Also I ordered 2 sets of sides but received one messy portion of half the sides . This latest is a definite 1 star experience :(

Cozy spot for Korean food. They are very accommodating and everything tastes good! Options for all levels of spice tolerance. Combo meals can feed 2 for a reasonable price! I will definitely eat here again
