Yuchun Restaurant in Los Angeles

Yuchun has quickly been my new go to restaurant especially since it’s been so hot in LA! Hot weather definitely calls for cold noodles 🤤 Their naengmyun is so incredibly refreshing and satisfying!!🍽️ Ordered:1. Kalbi + Chic naengmyun (Korean cold noodles with sliced beef in a cold ice broth)2. Chic Bibim naengmyun (sliced beef and vegetables over noodles with spicy sauce)3. Kimchi Mandu (kimchi dumplings)4. Mandugook (kimchi dumplings in soup)I love how this restaurant provides complimentary bone broth because it’s such a nice touch! The broth helps when you have a big appetite and are ready to eat🤣 I love putting black pepper in the broth for extra flavor.The chic mul naengmyun (cold noodles with broth) was by far my favorite because the noodles were extra cold and the radish soup added SO much flavor!!! I preferred that one over the chic bibim naengmyun (dry buckwheat noodles with spicy sauce) since that one didn’t have any soup. I absolutely love the combo of cold buckwheat noodles with kalbi since the acidity of the noodles pairs perfectly with the fatty and charred meat. Btw make sure you cut the noodles before eating because I almost choked when I was eating fast 🤣🥹This place is def a 15/10!!!

Cool and taste good. Its usually better to eat it with naengmyeon(cold noodle) and kimchi jeon(korean kimchi pizza), but it was a pity to hear that they dont make kimchi jeon anymore. Two people went and ate two bowls of naengmyeon, so the impression of the wait staff was not good. It may be a personal opinion.

Korean style cold noodle - Naengmyeon is a main menu in this restaurant.I went to eat lunch.Parking space was so small and no ballet parking available. So I had waited for long time to park.When I got in, there were lots of people. The staff asked to sit at a table. However I recognized later it was for the disabled. OmgI ordered 2 cold noodles and Galbi. It took more than 20mins due to lots of orders.Cold broth noodle- tasted too sweet. Seemed like lots of sugar insideMixed spicy noodle- sweet and spicy, so tasted not badGalbi- marinated beef galbi tasted good overall. However it was too salty and some pieces were tough to eat.Broth- self service. Tasted good, seemed MSG added a lotPrice was increased a lot since pandemic.If you want to eat Korean cold noodle easy, it can be a good option.However it won’t give you authentic Korean cold noodles- Naengmyeon.

This place is the best for cold noodles on a hot SoCal day. Be sure to get some free beef broth as it is self serve, its so good! It was crazy busy but the staff was still so kind and attentive. This is a place you must go on a hot day. Parking is valet even during lunchtime but there was plenty of street parking so valet is not your only option.

Naengmyeon is excellent. When its busy, kalbi takes awhile to get to your table. The self-service broth is really nice & comforting and I usually have a cup before my order gets to the table.

My friend and I decided to share the chic bibim naengmyun and kimchi wang mandu. We both left stuffed and had a bunch of leftovers. The naengmyun dish had the yummiest chewy noodles mixed with a vibrant sauce packed with spiciness, sweetness, and tanginess. The refreshing touch from the thinly sliced cucumber really took the dish to a new level. Kimchi dumplings were massive but didnt really wow us. One thing about Yuchun that I really loved was the unlimited broth.

Overpriced, yet expect to get no customer care service. They never check on you, whether you enjoyed your meal or not. They even take away the plate without asking if you are done. The menu provided has a wrong pricing also, so make sure you check the price on the wall!

Yuchun is one of my favorite go-to spots. I usually get the Chic Bibim Naengyum (cold noodles), kalbi, and kimi mandu. One hidden plus is the self-serve broth station in the corner!

No frills, good food, get in get out kinda place. They have a self serve hot broth station which we tried while we waited for our food - pretty good broth.We got the Galbi + Naengmyeon Combo (cold noodles and ribs), another and kimchi dumplings. It was too much food for 2 people, we could have just shared the combo with the kimchi dumplings. I didnt realize how big the Naengmyeon bowl was. The kimchi dumplings were also huge so we definitely left with a full belly. The kimchi wasnt over powering in the dumplings either and the filling was good. I would have cut the noodles more for the Naengmyeon, almost choked at one point lol.They accept credit cards, 1 card per table.

The best way I can describe the food is as ... Perhaps healthy comfort Korean food? The seafood pancake was absolutely fantastic. Banchans were well made, every dish was made with care as well. Warm and welcoming staff. Definitely recommend.
