3. Seafood Green Onion Pancake
Leona W.

Very authentic Korean restaurant!! We ordered the spicy braised short ribs, seafood onion pancake and beef soup. The spicy braised short ribs is so flavorful ( must try ), it comes with radish and rice cake. The beef soup reminds you in Korea, no MSG! And the seafood onion pancake is huge, good to share. Their banchan also changes everyday! The service is friendly and many old diners and families in the restaurant- that's how you know it's a legit place! There's dinner rush so come early Overall if you are looking for authentic Korean food this is the place!

Soybean paste soup

Price is reasonable. Little dishes are neat and tasty. Good place for authentic Korean food. See mostly Korean uncle and aunt eating after they play golf.

08/27/2023 Bossam + fresh oyster
Nathan P.

Came here 08/27/2023. This is authentic Korean family-style food. It's not necessarily a pocha or alcohol anju place, but it can be. This restaurant is similar in vibe and food style to Dine Korean Restaurant on Malvern if anyone is familiar. Food: Authentic Korean food with a variety of healthy banchan. Great value for the money. We got the bossam + fresh oyster and braised fish (dunno the English translation - silver cod?). These two dishes easily filled a family of 4 with some leftovers. Service: Service is relatively slow and they have a hard time turning over tables since there are only 2-3 waitresses and one busser. Lots of golf groups that come in during evening and night which causes a holdup. Ambiance: Loud and bustling, family style. Come with friends.

Seafood Green Onion Pancake

Grilled mackerel-- sooo good. I opted for the lunch special $16.99 which came with half (1 filet) of a mackerel, a miso-based soup, rice, and banchan. It was grilled to perfection, lots of crispy edges, but super soft and oily on the inside. It hit the spot. Seafood pancake (hameul pajeon) -- Daom's version just might be my favorite to date. It is pricier $27.99 than most I've had, but given that it contains seafood and was pretty generously portioned, the price point was understandable. I loved that they shredded the imitation crab meat and used it as a sort of crust on the exterior of the pancake. It added a lot of crispy edges. It was so flavorful that I didn't even need the seasoned soy sauce it came with. I also throughly enjoyed the banchan. We had acorn jelly, napa kimchi, seaweed salad and fish cake! They were thoughtful about wrapping the banchan in plastic wrap since there wouldn't be any leakage. I look forward to dining in person next time! So glad I tried a new Korean place in the area.

Menu as of 6/20/25

Foods tasted good. Only unpleasant thing was a few male golfers who were drinking was loud which affected our dinner.

grilled eel
Michelle L.

cozy & authentic korean food! the service here was quick & kind. water was never empty & they helped us with trying a new dish! we ordered their: beef tartare, grilled eel, and spicy stir fried pork belly w/ kimchi. additionally, they serve quite a bit of banchan too which was all really good. the beef tartare came out first. there was a raw egg yolk on top w/ sliced apple sticks & microgreens. the apple was a nice addition to the beef tartare since it provided a clean crunch. the grilled eel came out piping hot and it was delicious!! the sauce complimented the eel very well- not too overpowering nor too sweet. it was a nice portion too. lastly, the spicy stir fried pork belly & kimchi is a must have! pork belly on its own is yummy & tender but combined with their kimchi, it elevates the whole dish. the kimchi flavor was strong & did not lack any punch. the tofu absorbed the sauce very well too! overall, it was a great meal & would come back to try more of their menu :) p.s. their barley tea is refreshing !

Miso soup

the service is attentive, the food ingredients and texture are excellent. this was my first time eating at a Korean restaurant but I know this quality is excellent.

31.Grilled Beef Short Ribs Cold Noodle()
Tram Anh P.

Finally sunshine is coming back to California, and that's the great weather for some Cold noodles. It was my first time to try the combo of cold noodles and beef short ribs from daom_koreanrestaurant in Buena Park location. The short ribs was so good with right balance of sweet and savory. And the meat was a great combo with the cold noodles which was so refreshing. Also their banchan are so delicious, they have sweet apples with potato salad which is my favorite and I never saw it the other Korean restaurant . We also order spicy intestines sizzling dish. it was a huge plate and a little bit too spicy for me , but the taste was pretty good.

Amazing Korean food, I got the Short Rib with Cold noodles and it was melt in your mouth goodness. Super authentic and the staff were extremely kind and courteous I'd recommend this to anyone who likes Korean food. Even if you don't give it a try I think you will be super happy with it.

Banchan set
J'aime K.

The menu posted on the wall by each table is not accurate. Not all the dishes are available nor is the pricing correct. The print size is pretty small so my dad had a tough time ordering. They brought out a printed menu, but it was old and out of date, even less accurate and smaller - worse trying to read the tiny menu. Anyhow we ended up with bossam $50 (? I forget the price), it was good. And spicy squid stirfry $40. Not a great value for what you get. The banchan's were not made with taste in mind. They were all cut so big, like for a meat stew and just made in a basic manner. It missed the details and excellence in taste it once had. Service was ok, but they didn't have basic stuff like galbi. Overall disappointed.

This is one of my favorite AYCE shabu place! They are located in the same plaza as Zion Korean…read moreMarket, which has ample parking. They changed their set up to stations with unlimited veggies, toppings, noodles, sauces, and a hot bar that has Korean dishes like spicy rice cake and dumplings, which I think is smart and efficient! The service is here is very quick! Every time I came, the wait was not too long, and we were taken care of right away. Staff is friendly and quick to take your order of broth and protein. They regularly check up on you to make sure that you have everything you need. My go-to protein is the Chuck Eye--it has great texture and not too fatty. I've also tried their Beef Belly, Angus Brisket, and Top Blade. All the proteins are great quality! The place is very spacious, where they can host large parties. Always coming back here all-season round!

First time trying this shabu spot!…read more Honestly did not really have high expectations from just the interior/ vibes. However I was pleasantly surprised! The sukiyaki & bone broth was fire, the bone broth was so comfy and nostalgic for being Korean. The meat quality was also not bad, I don't really remember which ones we ordered but they were pretty tender. The 1.5 stars off probably come from the salad and hot bar. The veggie options and sauce bar was fine, but the hot bar was a little sad and most of the food was cold. I wish there was more variety in general, and dessert, but not a huge deal. The service was great! Fast and friendly. Would come back earlier in the day perhaps!

This was my first time at a Korean restaurant like this! I've been to Taiwanese style restaurants…read morewith similar dishes, but this is different! My boyfriend and I visited on a Friday night. Surprisingly it wasn't busy. It's a casual spot with lots of parking and seating. Very clean too. The employees were very nice and explained the process to us since it was our first time. You add the food you want to your bowl and pay for how much it weighs at the end. They have lots of options I was surprised! Once you weigh it, you pay and choose the broth or sauce you want. Both my boyfriend and I got mild rose options. You then sit with your ticket and they bring it to your table. The food comes out really fast. The mild isn't spicy at all, I'd get medium next time. It's more like a stir fry rather than a hot pot soup! I liked it, very flavorful you don't even need the side sauces.

This is a "pay by the pound" numbing hotpot restaurant that has a huge selection from meat to…read moreveggies to noodles to seafood and various other hotpot toppings. After we are assigned a table, we go to the food counter and fill a bowl with our favorite hotpot toppings - meat/noodles/veggies/tofu/fishballs. Then we bring the bowl over to the cashier counter, choose our favorite way to cook it (we like Mala style), and pay for it. Next, we head to the sauce counter and make our favorite peanut sauce concoction before returning to our table and waiting for our hotpot. Peanut sauce is a perfect combo with the Mala hotpot. Other than the pay-by-the-pound hotpot, they also have some Korean food entrees. There is also a bar if you're there for it. Overall, interesting vibes mixture; though I've only been there for the hotpot.

Ordered some late night soup with the wife and had a good peaceful time. Great for a "choose your…read moreown" quiet time. I ordered a level 1 spice, which was a good 5/10 spice level. You really make the experience yourself with this place, so pick all the toppings you want (highly recommend potato noodles), but remember that the noodles end up being more than you think! Was able to get my soup order back very quickly (you drop off your bowl with toppings), and the staff was very chill. Coming back again!

Pixiu is apparently a symbol of wealth and good fortune. This is more Chinese style mala tang, but…read morethey also have a dry stir fry that is more Korean style. They also have yellow pickled cucumber as a side dish. This location is inside The Source on the third parking floor/second floor. You can join the yelp waitlist if there is a line. Otherwise you get seated at your table, then go get a big metal bowl and scoop ingredients that you want. Keep in mind whether you want stir fry or soup. After your bowl is done, you take it to the register for them to weigh it. They will give you a number and you take it back to your seat. Weird thing here is you don't pay yet. After you eat, you take the receipt to the register to pay. Sauce bar is in the back by the restroom entrance. No WiFi Credit card accepted One Star off for only having fatty beef and lamb as meat choices. There was no seafood, like shrimp or octopus pieces.
