Just to add, my wife doesn't care for red meat, but because the quality of meats are so good here she is actually the one that wants to get picanha Australian wagyu almost every week from here.

Walking in, I browsed their cuts and looked at the signs. I…read morenoticed their carne azada near the register was not labeled. I asked the man over the counter what cuts he had. He said "Pues pide" which means well order. So I wondered if they had diesmillo on the bone since I saw diesmillo and I like it on the bone. He responded, "no we don't do that". So I pointed at the carne and asked what cut it was. He told me it was ranchera (there is no sign) so I asked if it was prime and he said yes. I ordered meat then asked for a couple of pounds of their advertised chicken. He mentioned there were two types, I took both and some diesmillo. The flavor is good , but the service, the way he spoke to me felt rude. Just for that I wouldn't bother to make the 20 minute drive again. This is my second time there and it seems I can't look at the meat, I'm expected to know what they have, know what I want and order. But, as they rudely tell me to order and "I'll see", they didn't even have what I wanted. What am I doing wrong? I politely said, "buenos dias" and ordered in Spanish. No one was in line after me, I don't understand the rudeness. This place is a NO for me. They are not the only carnicería. One star on customer service.

Okay, talk about a legitimate hidden gem. We almost didn't find La Española Meats, that's how…read morehidden it kinda is. Follow your GPS and don't just start winging it at the end because if you miss the turn onto Doble Avenue, you're going back around the block. It's in Harbor City in a warehouse, which makes a lot more sense once you know what the place actually is. La Española has been importing Spanish foods for more than 40 years, and they also make their own Spanish-style charcuterie right here in California. Being tucked into a warehouse near the Port of LA somehow makes the whole thing feel like a miniature local adventure. When you first walk in you have to acclimate for a second because every inch of the place is filled with something. Oils, olives, vinegars, paprika and other seasonings, wine, cheeses, meats, paella pans, and then random specialty things like soaps and room sprays. The neroli ones smelled fantastic, btw. I went in with a list because we were heading out to the desert and had decided we were making paella. We already had a carbon steel paella pan at home basically begging for the job, so this was happening. We left with sweet and smoked paprika, Spanish chorizo, a couple different oils, sherry vinegar, and several cheeses and meats from the refrigerated section. Plus, of course, some things that were definitely not on the list. Also, if you go on Saturday, they make paella in a gigantic pan behind the building and offer several varieties to go or to eat on the patio. We happened to be there on a Saturday and somehow stayed committed to making our own, even though theirs smelled delicious. I did get the skinny though, and they recommend ordering ahead. Side note: not only did they have everything we needed, we were clearly set up for success. See image for proof of concept.

Red Rock lives up to the hype! A Japanese friend recommended this spot and I finally understand…read morewhy. The atmosphere is quaint and transported me straight back to Japan -- such a nice touch. We shared the Kobe sliced beef don with raw egg and the fluffy omu-rice with hamburger steak in demi-glace sauce. For the rice, you can choose garlic or tomato -- we went with garlic on our sweet waitress's recommendation, and it was a great choice. We also got a side salad and iced green tea to cool off between bites. Everything was so flavorful -- perfectly savory without being overwhelming, and the portions were just right. The beef was incredibly tender, and the hamburger steak was just as good -- not dry at all. The demi-glace sauce was perfect. Service was friendly and we were seated quickly, even without a reservation. Already looking forward to going back to try more of the menu!

The restaurant is small and dark, but felt cozy. We ordered the American sliced beef don and the ribeye steak don, both with a raw egg. The meat itself was delicious! Not sure if it's Japanese cuisine to make their savory foods slightly sweeter, but there was a sweet taste I didn't expect. Still, the dish tasted good. Service was also quick and friendly!

Dropped by this place on a recent Saturday to try out their bbq. So glad I did…read more Everything I had was spectacular. I ordered the following items from the menu: St. Louis-style ribs, Beef rib, brisket, potato salad, coleslaw, and chili. The St. Louis-style ribs were very easy to bite into and flavorful. The beef rib (only available Fri.-Mon) was perfectly tender, smoky, and fatty. The bark wasn't excessively thick, which I appreciated. The brisket, which I got the fatty part of (they ask you if you want the lean or fatty cut) was my favorite of the three. So fatty, juicy and satisfying to eat. None of the meats really needed the sweet bbq sauce I got with the meal. The side items were spot-on as well. The potato salad, coleslaw and chili were the best I've had in quite some time. I regret not getting some chili to go. I have a sneaking suspicion a nice helping of it on hotdogs would be amazing. Can't wait to come back to this place. Forgot to order the jalapeño sausages while I was here. Looking forward to trying that on my next visit.

It's warm, it's tidy, and it smells like happiness sizzling on a grill. The service was smooth, friendly and efficient. They check on you just enough to make you feel cared for, but not enough to make you wonder if they're trying to adopt you. Respectfully attentive, the way all service should be. Now let's talk food, because this place had me rethinking my bellies choices. The spicy beef soup pulled up like a warm hug from someone who also isn't afraid to roast you. Flavorful, comforting, and spicy enough to remind you you're alive. The beef ox tongue, wow ..listen. If you've never had tongue that melts like butter and grills up with that perfect little snap, this place will convert you. I was out here chewing like I was signing a peace treaty. The prime rib‑kalbi was so juicy and tender I almost apologized to it for eating it. Almost. The kimchi came in hot with the tangy attitude, balancing everything like the responsible friend in the group chat. And the raw beef tartare. So delicious and clean, fresh, and seasoned like it went to culinary private school. I took one bite and immediately felt like I should be wearing a fancy watch. Overall, Sei‑Ko‑En is cozy, clean, delicious, and unintentionally comedic, because every dish had me making faces I hope nobody recorded. A must‑visit for anyone who loves Japanese BBQ with Korean soul and a side of "wow, I didn't know food could do that." Exploring great food, one bite at a time! Miguel C.

I've always wanted to come here and I'm glad I finally pulled the trigger. I can't believe it took…read moreme this long because I'd be a frequent customer many years ago if I had come sooner. This restaurant opened over 40 years ago in the 1980s. They have not changed their seasonings or recipes since then. A lot of their sauces and kimchee is made in house (and has not changed in over 40 years). This is probably the best Japanese BBQ experience I've ever had and I've had A LOT of BBQ experiences. My favorites are items you typically cannot get anywhere else. Their raw beef liver sashimi and their raw minced beef are amazing. It's really hard to find these creations. If you like liver, then you'll be an instant fan. If you're a little squeamish then you can always grill it a bit before you eat it lol Their cuts of meat are also a league above the rest. I loved them all! Their wagyu tongue, negi tongue, gokujo kalbi, tokujo ro-su, and pork belly are all worth writing home about. They also serve vegetables and salad to go with the BBQ. We also tried their yukkejan soup which is their spicy beef soup. It was very tasty. Savory and not too salty. Very well balanced. I'd eat this alone on a cold rainy day. The ambiance is busy with moderate noise. Lots of Japanese locals were there that night and were simply having an amazing time socializing. Overall 10/10. Definitely coming back!

ZERO STARS IF I COULD! WORST KBBQ EXPERIENCE EVER…read more Never trust a Korean BBQ restaurant that doesn't even seem to have Korean customers dining there! I wish I had trusted my gut because my entire family got sick after eating at 92K BBQ in Torrance. We spent over $200 on dinner, ordering mostly brisket and short ribs throughout the night. The first red flag was the short ribs. The meat looked GRAYISH, pale, and honestly questionable. I've been to plenty of Korean BBQ restaurants, and the short ribs are usually bright red or marinated. These looked old and completely unappetizing. Something just didn't look right. That same night, my mom and brother started experiencing stomach aches. The following morning, I developed severe stomach issues and spent THREE WHOLE DAYS practically living on the toilet. It was genuinely one of the worst experiences I've ever had. I became so dehydrated that I ended up going to the ER. I strongly suspect we experienced food poisoning from this restaurant. But what made this entire experience even WORSE was the complete lack of customer service and accountability. I contacted the restaurant and left a message for the manager, Kris, explaining what happened to my family. I was promised a callback, but NEVER received one. I had to go out of my way to call MULTIPLE times just to get ahold of her. I even attempted to submit a complaint through their online form, but their website wouldn't allow me to send anything! When I FINALLY spoke to Kris, I was shocked by how dismissive and unapologetic she was. There was absolutely NO empathy or concern for the fact that multiple members of my family became sick after eating there. Instead, she immediately suggested we must have gotten sick from somewhere else. And here's the part that really got me: She actually told me that their short ribs are SUPPOSED to look gray. EXCUSE ME?! Since when is gray-looking meat something a customer is supposed to feel comfortable eating?! That explanation did absolutely NOTHING to reassure me about the quality of their food. I also asked about a refund or some form of compensation considering we spent over $200 on a meal that was followed by days of stomach problems and an ER visit. Instead of taking my concerns seriously, I felt completely brushed off. Imagine spending over $200 to take your entire family out for dinner, only to spend the next three days sick, dehydrated, and regretting every bite. The food quality was questionable, the management was dismissive, and the customer service was absolutely unacceptable. I understand that restaurants can't automatically be blamed every time someone gets sick, but when multiple people from the same dinner experience similar symptoms afterward, the VERY LEAST management can do is show some compassion and take the complaint seriously. ZERO STARS. I WILL NEVER RETURN. Save your money, your stomach, and your health. There are SO MANY better Korean BBQ restaurants out there that actually care about their customers. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone.

My bf picked up two dry-aged tomahawks here for my birthday last year and Albert even gave him the one that he was saving to take home so that we could have enough! Wow, that is next-level service! We've tried a bunch of different cuts here including: - Tomahawk - Beef tenderloin - 45-day dry-aged bone-in ribeye (I think, or was it NY Strip) - Ribeye - Picanha - NY strip All have been EXCELLENT and made for some amazing evenings and memories. We usually sous vide for a few hours and, with a bottle of wine... *chef's kiss*. We most recently tried a 45-day dry-aged steak (forget which cut it was) and it was the best steak I've ever had.

PARKING: Free street parking on 4th St or PCH; we usually have no trouble finding a spot on 4th.
