The food and service were terrific. We are new to the South Bay and kind of new to So Cal. There are a ton of KBBQ restaurants but this is the only Korean Chinese restaurant we have found. A lot of people here describe it as fusion but it's a Korean style of cuisine that exits from those that live on the borders of China and Korea. The black bean sauce noodle was chewy in texture and the sauce so flavorful. The chicken with sweet and sour sauce was so good. The portion size was enough for another meal. We also ordered some mixed veggies and a rose topokki both were great. Give this place a try! Can't wait to come back and try the wings and a few other menu items. We were too busy eating and forgot to take pics! read more

Came here twice recently and like it! Honestly I love Korean Chinese food so glad to have somewhere to go to nearby. Personally I do like the jajangmyeon more than the jjampong and the tangsuyuk is solid as well. With that said, the jjampong is pretty mediocre in my opinion(tried it twice!) but I think they don't give you that much seafood especially when looking at the noodles and is missing the classic wok flavor that's typically in solid jjampong. Service is really wholesome and still would really encourage you all to support this small business. Ambiance is more on the quiet end from the times I've been there. read more

Full House Plus - Spicy Seafood Soup Noodle (Half) & Fried Pork with Sweet & Sour Sauce (Half) / - Chinese Near Me - Torrance, California

Calm luh underground spot. The food was normal korean food but still delicious nonetheless. They gave sides of pickled radish and onions that was fire. Also the barley tea was super refreshing too. But man the service was outstanding. We were some buffoons, they waited patiently for our third person to arrive and then we had the audacity to spill sauce on our shirts so we had to wash it in the bathroom but we left a giant water mess and the lady was so nice about it, giving us bibs and helping us mop, what a sweetheart. All that yapping to say, excellent place, lady was super sweet, come just for her tbh. read more

So happy they have korean (Chinese fusion) place in the South Bay. I wanted k black bean noodle and they had it here, and even better you can get a small size. They make the noodles in house too. Our server was so friendly and welcoming and gave us tips on how to enjoy the radish. Food is all made fresh to order and there's something for everyone here. read more

Had the best experience at this location. The food was great- it was my first time trying black bean noodle sauce and it did not disappoint. The owner was so sweet and make recommendations being that it was my first time at the location. I even had food leftover! Great food for the price. The location had outdoor and indoor seating. read more

Torrance Food Crawl #428 Full House Plus is a Chinese-Korean fusion restaurant, not fully Korean or Chinese, but a nice blending of the two. As with most Asian restaurants, there are a large number of different dishes to choose from. In my experience here, I've yet to find an item I didn't like. My favorite dish was the Multi Seafood Combination. It has a colorful combination of vegetables and seafood like shrimp, scallops, squid, and mussels, with a light sauce. It tastes wonderful and has just the right proportion of vegetables to seafood. The Kung Pao Beef is a close second for my favorite dish here. Small cuts of thin beef with peppers, onions, Szechwan peppers, peanuts and sauce. Colorful and tasty. Another favorite dish was the Spicy Seafood Soup, which has a red chili image on the menu, indicating it is spicy. There isn't a lot of seafood in the soup, but I barely noticed because of the tasty and spicy broth. There were lots of vegetables. The portion size was generous for the money ($12.99) - I finished it, and I was full afterward. I have to mention the excellent way they package leftovers. If you want to take the rest of your dish home, they'll put it in a plastic box, seal the top with a plastic sheet, and tape a small plastic knife to the box. There won't be any spillage on the way home. Service has always been polite. There is inside as well as outside seating. The parking lot isn't huge, but there's plenty of parking nearby. read more

My boyfriend and I wanted to grab lunch after the gym. We always saw this restaurant on Yelp and wanted to try their lunch special. This is a great restaurant to share dishes with family and friends. Their lunch portions are generous to feed 2 people. The owner of the restaurant was great! He recommended us to try a sauce he made that goes well with the sweet and sour pork. My boyfriend said that that was his favorite dish. I feel like this is a hole in the wall because it didn't look too busy when we came in for lunch. We would definitely be coming back to try other dishes. read more

The person who took my order was lovely. While waiting for my food, we started chatting because I was the only customer at the restaurant for an early lunch. He immigrated to America 12 years ago, and I shared my immigration story with him. He's been to China quite a few times, but he has never tried the Chinese version of the zhajiangmian. I described it as drier, more savory, and with less sauce. I told him that I prefer the Korean style. I ordered half of zhajiangmian and half of fried pork. The zhajiangmian was flavorful and satisfying, but the sweet-sour fried pork had too much batter for my taste, and the dipping sauce was just okay. The restaurant is very spacious, but it started filling up pretty quickly after I started eating. The hot barley tea was particularly enjoyable on a cold, windy day. There were plenty of parking spots at this shopping center. read more

I think this is a korean-chinese fusion pot. They got black bean noodles which is really good (ordered this twice). If you're not hungry I believe you can get a smaller size. The noodles are made in-house, cooked well, and are lathered in a really tasty sauce. I tried my partner's sour pork and it was really good as well! Overall, I wouldn't mind coming back to this place :) read more

10/10 would recommend! The food, the service, the location, the ambiance, all of it was amazing. The quality and quantity of the food you get here is top tier korean chinese fusion food. Eating here is a vibe and has kpop playing in the back. Super fun to take your friends here. On weekdays, you have the option of certain combos such as half jjajangmyun and half jjampong and man it did not disappoint. I'm such a huge fan of both so it's amazing to get the option of half and half. Everything here tastes SO good, just made with love honestly. My favorite dish of all time though, is their spicy fried pork. Chewy, crispy, delicious goodness. I brought my friend and she doesn't like pork but she actually LOVED this dish. She actually said the way it was cooked so well makes it so juicy and soft like chicken. Very flavorful and doesn't have that pork smell. The service was so friendly and fast. They were helpful, patient and took care of us. The parking was easy to find in a huge shared lot -- when I went there was some construction happening so the location was hiding around the corner but it should still be easy to find with the large signs redirecting you. Overall, I am sold and definitely will be back more! read more

So this is our experience of full house plus We have not dined in since they first opened, which I think was right after Covid The design layout is actually a booth style and more private than it was a long time ago where was just open tables everywhere I actually like it a little bit more because it's more private We ordered two black bean noodle dishes as well as the sweet-and-sour pork and the spicy seafood noodle dish and it was good We really enjoyed the black bean noodle, and the sweet-and-sour pork was just enough of crisp and sour and sweet The hot spicy seafood noodle dish. The broth was lacking. It was a little watered down. It's not really that spicy and didn't have really a rich flavor some places like to use pork to make the broth a little bit more filling, but I don't think they do. I think it's a pure seafood base but still something is missing. The service was very good and attentive and we had no complaints. We order from this place for take out every once in a while and the food is always consistently been good. read more

We love going to this place for lunch because of their lunch special deal. My husband and I can never decide whether to get jajangmyun or jjampong and we always want sweet and sour pork.. but it's too much if we order all of them. At Full House, they have a lunch special menu where they have a split bowl ad you can get 2 half size servings. This way, we can get essentially 4 dishes between the two of us! They're $14.99-$16.99 per order. Huge portions so we always have leftover sweet and sour pork to take home. The place is really spacious so there's never a wait. Staff is very friendly. One negative thing is that they ran out of the yellow radish when we were there.. I've never seen a Korean Chinese restaurant run out of yellow radish... especially when there's a Korean market in the same plaza... I remember when this location was The Counter and Fantastic Burger. Restaurants don't seem to last in this space so I'm really rooting for Full House!!! read more

Food here was amazingly good for Chinese Korean cuisine. Hot tea is complimentary. Excellent customer service as needed. The place was pretty empty during early dinner hours. Restaurant is spacious and busy with takeouts, but the dining experience felt very comfortable with no large crowds. Inexpensive. For $14.99-$16.99 each, you can order the half & half food selections which are generous in size for two people. We had JJM Black bean sauce noodles with JB Jam Bong spicy seafood noodles. Good combination at great value. $20.99 for full size fried chicken order is not bad at all. Their chicken thighs/drumsticks/wings were small, but extremely fresh white meat, tender and delicious. Ingredients were authentic Korean taste. Love garlic and jalapenos. Both Soy Garlic and Hot Special Sslt Pepper flavors were absolutely finger licking good here. You can pick any two flavors. You pay more in San Francisco Bay Area $34+ for full orders. We are extremely satisfied with the $20.99 order. Everything was fulfilling and tasty as expected. This place is worth trying out. There's a large patio area outdoors too. read more

We loved the food and service so much that we dined here twice in the last two weeks. On our first visit, we both dined on the half portion of black bean sauce noodle and half portion of lightly battered, crisp fried pork with sweet and sour sauce. We also shared honey and garlic chicken wings. We both had a lot of leftover delicious food. It made for a good dinner the next night. Tonight, we enjoyed three entrees which came with a side of steamed rice for each entree. The multi- seafood combination included shrimp, squid and mussels with a large quantity of assorted vegetables. The fried tofu with assorted vegetables (bok choy, carrots, mushrooms, broccoli, bamboo shoots, etc.) was in the same broth as the seafood combo. The honey walnut shrimps were large, prepared with a sweet mayonnaise and an ample portion. Our attentive server remembered us from our first visit. She appeared delighted that we returned. She also expertly packed our leftover food into appropriate containers. There is ample parking in the shopping center. However, the parking closest to the restaurant can get filled quickly. Starbucks is next door and the configuration of the parking lot makes it a little difficult. read more

This time tried fried chicken Gyoza (fried chicken dumbling) & wool-Myun( like sea food egg flower noodle soup) so sticky& good - nurturing my stomach with soft eggs. And leftover egg soup without noodles for to go home with Sweet & sour pork!! Best Korean- Chinese in southern California !! Thanks Jane read more

First time found it through yelp I'm trying to go to more small businesses and find places that can accommodate me. I got the orange chicken because it didn't have soy and the person I was with got the Mongolian beef with noodles. I ordered on the phone the person was very sweet and knowledgeable and very considerate about my allergies. Everything arrived very sealed tight in plastic accept for my orange chicken and it had a cool opener the radish it looked like it was seasoned with ginger. It came with a side of rice. I felt I didn't really need the rice because the orange chicken was so flavorful. I like the idea of Korean Chinese fusion! Definitely will be coming back here. read more

Came here with my mom the other day because we were looking for something new to try. I loved that they had these split meals so I could try more than one thing. I got the jajangmyeon and fried dumplings and both were so good!! The dumplings were super crispy and the sauce for the noodles was on point. The restaurant was pretty empty during lunchtime but I imagine it gets super busy at night. Def worth trying! read more

We have been in search of good Korean-infused Chinese food since Moo's restaurant on Torrance Blvd closed a few years ago. This is definitely a worthy substitute. Limited seating area, but service is quick and friendly. Decent value for family style eating, but it's not the greatest bang for the buck. Most importantly, quality of food is very solid. Fried shrimp with sweet and sour garlic sauce is in point. Tasty traditional Chinese fare as well, such as the Mongolian beef and orange chicken. We still miss Moo's, but the taste tradition lives on. read more

Solid meal for a decent price! Lots of seats in here (it kind of feels like a pocha) and also a ton of parking spots. The workers were so kind and friendly, and they made me and my friends feel so welcomed! I ordered the half and half sweet and sour pork with the black bean noodles. It was a great price for the amount of food that I received, and I thought it was so smart that they had all the sauce separate from the pork so that you could put on as much as you desire. The noodles were really good and cooked well, and the sauce on it was delicious. The pork was okay, it was a little dry and I don't think I would get the pork again. I definitely want to come back here during lunch time because their lunch specials are so good! read more

Service 5 star. Right off the bat service here was friendly and inviting. They have lunch specials... but without ordering bring you a pitcher of H20, takuan, and a good sized lunch green salad. #1. Jajangmyeon/spicy seafood soup Jajangmyeon very tasty.. not spicy but rich in flavor... This is perfectly couple with the spicy seafood soup that was equally full of flavor. Because one was mild and the other spicy... you were clearly able to taste each dish respectfully. Big lunch.. so go in hungry!!! read more

Came for my mother's birthday today, as Chinese cuisine is her favorite. This hidden gem is absolutely delicious! Their shareable plates are generous--easily enough to feed 3-4 people each plate. The place is spotless, and I love that even the ice is crystal-clear, perfectly square, and free of any aftertaste. The service is truly top-notch. I highly recommend this spot. read more

Server was very nice, good variety of food, and portions were large. Casual setting with lots of seating indoors and outdoors.

Worst. Ordered through DoorDash and didn't even get the basic sides and utensils. Everything about the meal was bland, sauce wasn't saucing. I wanted to support this place so much but not when even they don't care about the taste. read more

The good: I came for my birthday dinner and enjoyed my meal and the hospitality. Everyone was friendly to my cranky baby. They gave the kids plastic utensils and gave us scissors to cut food for the babies. We also got a corner table with a bench which made it easier with the kids. We tried black bean noodles (dry version), shrimp chow mein, salt and pepper fish and calamari, and spicy thinly sliced beef with veggies (our favorite dish). The place was lively on a Friday night. I think they were entertaining a party because I saw large catering trays out. They have a huge outdoor dining space as well with outdoor lights. I didn't see heating lamps. There was plenty of parking. The interior is casual. The meat was tender. My toddler loved the shrimp. The calamari wasn't chewy. The salt and pepper seafood wasn't overly fried and hard. I loved the to go microwaveable to go boxes with the plastic seal and a little red pick to cut the plastic seal. It was clean and organized. I liked how the menu had red chili peppers on the side to inform you if it was spicy. The prices were fair. I'd like to cater food from here in the future! They have great lunch combo specials. The bad: They ran out of yuzu lemonade so we got peach iced tea instead which was very sweet. We watered down the tea and it tasted good after that. We needed to request napkins a few times. They accidentally brought us salt and pepper squid instead of fish by accident but gave us the squid for free (thanks!) so we were super full! I think there wasn't a pepper symbol on the menu by the salt and pepper fish but the dish was spicy with jalapeños. We love spicy food but we're hoping to have more mild options for the babies. The interesting: I'm not sure if dry black bean noodles just means that the sauce is on the side but that's how ours came. They're a Chinese restaurant with some Korean dishes and Korean workers. read more

Very disappointing experience here. We ordered seafood dry black bean noodles (), spicy seafood noodle () and fried pork with sweet and sour sauce (). Seafood dry black bean noodle was mild in flavor. The only seafood it had was small pieces of squid (almost invisible) and some shrimps (likely frozen, pre-peeled, not fresh). The noodle was too thick for my preference but this is strictly personal preference. Spicy seafood noodle was ok. They used whole fresh shrimp in here but it was tasteless and almost felt uncooked. it didnt soak up the soup as it does at other places. However I would say this was the best dish among the 3 we ordered. Fried pork with sweet and source sauce was also disappointing. I like how their pork is fried with thin batter and quality of meat is decent. However some pieces were more rubbery than others. The sauace was overwhelmingly sweet without any sourness. The menu here is very extensive. I understand that it is the norm for chinese and chinese-korean restaursnts to have a long menu, but if they cant do the basics (dishes i ordered) well, i doubt they will do anything well. Overall i would not visit or recommend this place. There are so many better places in gardena. read more

Located at the corner plaza on Torrance Blvd and Hawthorne; which houses Starbucks, Presotea, Yogurtland and more is Full House Plus. They just opened this past Monday and are currently doing a soft opening. I came with my mom and we started off with a complimentary salad and side dish with yellow radishes, onions and dipping sauce. Both were simple yet tasty. For an appetizer; we ordered the vegetable egg rolls. They give six pieces for $7.95. For our main entrees; we got the Black Bean Sauce Noodle ($9.95) , Sliced Chicken Breast with Black Mushrooms ($18.95) and Fried Chicken with Vegetable and Spicy Sauce ($20.95). All the dishes came with a good sized portion. Each of the dishes were also quite delicious! It was my first time ever to try Black Bean Sauce Noodles. I loved the noodles. They were long, thick and soft. The sauce was the my and slightly sweet. It was like an Asian spaghetti and quite enjoyable. I also really enjoyed the chicken dishes. I liked the tender and tasty Chicken Breast with Black Mushrooms. My favorite dish however was the Fried Chicken with Vegetable and Spicy Sauce. This dish came out hot and fresh and the chicken had a nice crisp when it came out. It was very flavorful but we got a tip from Roy who works there to add chili oil. Wow the addition of chili oil enhanced the flavors of the dish anymore. The Fried Chicken with Vegetable and Spicy Sauce is definitely a dish to check out! Not only was the food here really good; so was the service! The employees constantly checked in on us and were gracious with giving us rice and hot water/tea. Lastly; I was quite impressed with how they packaged our leftovers! They had vacuum sealed takeout containers. There was no chance for spillage of sauces. It was clean, clever and simply awesome. Kudos to Roy who helped us and was very nice the whole time we were there! Overall I was very impressed with this new spot. Full House Plus has great food and great service! I'm happy to see them in the South Bay and will be back soon! read more

This review was for a Sunday lunch. Restaurant was not very busy, 4 tables including us at noon. The rating is 2.5 stars at best for our experience. We wanted this place to be good, and the servers tried so hard to get things right for us but so many things went wrong. Maybe they didn't have the right staff today, or just an off day, but we started off with a wall poster fall off next to us as we sat down. The restroom was also a little weird to us with the storefront door locks. Ordered the following: Black bean sauce noodles, fried chicken wings (non spicy), beef with black mushroom, eggplant with hot garlic sauce, honey walnut shrimp Straight off the bat, the fried chicken wings came out with a ton of jalapeños, and then as we started eating them the chicken wings were extremely raw! Pink and red inside, and had to send them back. This should have not been an issue. After it being prepared again and fully cooked, the dish still came back with a ton of jalapeños. The honey walnut shrimp came out with too much batter, stuck together and soggy, and the shrimp inside were very hard, tasting like overcooked frozen shrimp. The dish being so pricey, expected it to be better. Would not recommend The three other dishes came out quickly and were okay. Eggplant was a little hard but still edible, and the sauce was heavy on the salt. The beef with mushroom had very good flavor and beef was tender. The best dish was the black bean sauce with noodles, noodles were not overcooked and the sauce was thick and meaty. The wait staff were extremely nice, even though they messed up getting us some hot water, tea, and ice water. I wish I could give them a better rating, but until they get their orders and quality better, we will not be returning. read more

I've doordashed from here a couple times since my initial review and I have to say much better than my in-dining experience. I do really enjoy their half noodles and half fried pork combo for about $20. It's a good deal for weekday dinner to get delivered when I don't want to cook. Lower quality than nearby competitors but with the price it's top notch. read more

The food was so good here, the soup broth for the seafood spicy noodles was really tasty along with fresh seafood and veggies plus chewy delicious noodles! Everyone there is so nice and welcoming, plus they have happy hour, I think it was 4$ for a huge glass of Kona, will be back for sure! read more

Everything I've tried here has been excellent. Super fresh and flavorful. I was a little hesitant to try the black bean sauce noodles, but it's now a favorite. We also love their chicken chow mein, fried dumplings, kung pao, and chicken breast with spicy garlic sauce to name a few. Service is fast and friendly too! read more

The service at this restaurant was amazing. Even though we were the last table at 7:45 pm, the owner kept checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed, including scissors and knowledge on how to mix black bean noodles. The restaurant is very fusion. Good value of $11 for a 32 ounce beer, pairs well with fried food. However, we were pretty disappointed when we discovered that the seafood black bean noodles we ordered contained many chunks of pork in the sauce. This was particularly upsetting for my pescatarian friend, who hadn't eaten pork in years. read more

Over 30+ years I've eaten jjajangmyeon, this has to be up there for tiniest portion size. I've gotten jjajangmyeon across multiple states and countries and for the price, this place definitely is the worst in value. Like seriously, wtf are these portion sizes?? Ordered delivery and I was genuinely speechless. Dropped $70 for 2 jjajangmyeon and a meat dish and this shot was lighter than just 1 jjajangmyeon order from anywhere else in the neighborhood. Can't even imagine how tiny the noodle portion would be if we had ordered one of the half combos. Even with their buy 3 get 1 the portions still wouldn't be worth it. Not to mention it doesn't even taste great. It's just your run of the mill jjajangmyeon from a food court (actually those are better) for $16 but the size of a literal half size order anywhere else. Oh and on top of that they don't even include the radish or onions read more

Service was fantastic! Food was so so. Didn't love the black bean noodle. Too much sauce and not enough noodles. Mapo tofu should have had more flavor and spicier. We had a 2 more dishes I think beef with vegetables and something else. We live in the sg valley and we have some of the best Asian food around. read more

Best jjambbong in South Bay easily. Friendly owner/manager and the staff is young but polite.

Have been here a few times now for takeout and this review is long overdue. The main things I order are the sweet and sour shrimp and the black bean noodle simply because those were the first things I tried and they were so good I keep ordering them again. Shrimp are juicy and have an amazing crisp light coating. Super good. Black bean noodles are delicious as well and staff are friendly and so polite. read more

I had to go Maybe recommended--because if you're not into trying VERY DIFFERENT styles of food, this place may disappoint. My ratings below aren't equally weighted, and my stars aren't the average, but an overall that fits this very unique category (from my perspective not being Korean). Food: 3.75 Service: 5.0 Ambiance: 4.5 read more

Everything! The food and service are impeccable the people who work here are super nice and the food hits every time! Definitely recommend!

We came here to try the Korean noodle dishes. This place did not disappoint - the jajangmyeon even got the Korean mom approval! We also got the seafood jjiampong, salt and pepper squid, and salt/pepper chicken wings. Portions were big (jjiampong can easily be split by 2), noodles were nice and chewy, the fried chicken and squid were crispy and good. Restaurant is clean, friendly servers, and they seal your to-go containers so they don't spill. Would come back! read more
