    They mainly paid attention to those korean speakers but it was okay for a night with gobchang

    Had a great experience at Gob Chang! The food came out fresh and flavorful, and everything was cooked nicely. I really enjoyed the side dishes, especially the steamed egg and soup. The gobchang was tasty, chewy in a good way, and went well with the dipping sauces and vegetables. The portion was good for sharing, and the meal felt very satisfying.

    Are you into exotic foods that might require you to acquire the taste of something? Well, if you like crispy intestines cooked on a cast iron grill, Gob Chang is worth the try. We had a restaurant that we liked to frequent at closer to home, but they have recently closed down, so I've been in search of other places. The service was good, but language was a little bit of a barrier. We asked for the bean spouts to be separated and at first I didn't think he understood, but at the end all the vegetables were separated which was better than including the bean spouts. The intestines was good, but I would have preferred them to be crispier, but he put out the flames early. We ordered an a La carte order of the pork belly, which was very good. I loved the thickness of the cuts. Definitely worth a return trip.

    5/5 - A hidden gem for me The food was delicious, the service was great, and everything came out hot and flavorful. I really liked the combo menu where you can choose 3 items -- I went with 2 small intestines and tripe, and they were cooked perfectly with no weird smell, just rich and savory. Banchan (side dishes) are refillable for free, which is always a big plus. The atmosphere gives strong Korean vibes, very casual and cozy -- it honestly feels like eating at a local spot in Korea. Overall, great food, great service, and great vibes. I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend if you're into Korean-style grilled intestines or want to try something different!

    I'd been craving intestines, so I did a quick Yelp search and found this spot. It reminded me of a traditional Korean sidewalk pub: small, cozy, with about 6 to 7 tables. We ordered the Medium 3 Combo meal, which included small intestine, large intestine, and tripe, and it came with steamed egg and either soup/kimchi on the side. Ordered rice to go with it which was perfect but I do wish they had hot barley tea. The gentleman came out and torched the meat for a few mins, then left them to continue grilling on the cast iron plate with gel fuel. Everything was delicious! The meal came to about $100 with tip, but I'd say it was well worth it and will for sure come back here!

    Choose 3 Combination - delicious

    If you're a fan of daechang and gopchang then this place is definitely the rice place for you. They have a 3 combo meal that comes with a combo of small intestine, large intestine or tripe and all three are absolutely amazing. They also have steamed egg and a choice of either kimchi soup or soybean soup. The service was amazing as well. The owner was extremely kind and made sure that we were always taken care of and you can just tell that he has a passion for making the best Korean food in the area. The restaurant is nice and it's just a has a traditional Korean vibe to it. 10 out of 10 would recommend this place!

    Came here to celebrate my sister early birthday. Ordered a few things from the menu. Ordered a small intestine combo as well as the pork belly. The combo came with the soup as well as the egg. The egg was so good with the cheese on top. 10/10 The kimchi soup wasn't really our favorite, and it's kinda spicy. 4/10 The small intestine was really fire. Goes really well with their sauce. 10/10 We also ordered the pork belly ( no pic). Was pretty tasty and with some bomb kimchi with it. 10/10 The waiters who were working were very nice and joke around with us. Overall would recommend this place if you are looking for a place for some intestine. It is a little bit on the pricey side.

    Gob Chang is a hidden Korean restaurant gem in a small Buena Park plaza. With spacious parking (though it can get crowded, street parking might be necessary), this cozy pocha-style spot serves quality meat with fast service. The owner takes pride in their meat quality, delivering an authentic dining experience. This place is my #1 Gop Chang place!!! Great for Gop Chang lovers, though it closes early for soju drinkers :(

    Love coming here for their big intestines. Their medium is a good 2-3 people servings and there's alot of fresh Banchan. Service is always great. The owner is always attentive. I haven't been here in a year and Def hit the spot. The intestine always clean throughly which make it easier to enjoy. See you guys again soon :)

    Walked in on a Saturday night - it wasn't too busy and we were seated immediately. We ordered the Choose 3 Combination (M), Kimchi Cold Noodle, and Beef Tartare. Service was fast and the staff were great! The Kimchi Cold Noodle was super refreshing and cuts the fattiness of the intestine. The beef tartare was also very fresh and a generous portion. There were only 2 of us so we had a lot of leftovers to take home haha. A solid gobchang spot!

I called them to see if we can walk in 50 min before closing, no one answered but I got a text message back right away; they said they'll seat us but last call is in 20 minutes. Our server said she was the person that we texted before arrival. Since they were closing soon we decided to not grill and ordered 4 dishes for our party of 4 adults and 1 child: braised short rib, galbitang with abalone, marinated galbi box, and cold buckwheat noodles. I planned to check out the restaurant for their weekday lunch special of naengmyeon with boneless short rib, but decided to go for dinner with my family to celebrate a birthday and try more dishes. I asked our server if we ordered everything that would've been in the lunch special, and she said we did not get boneless short rib which is different from the braised short rib. So we got the naengmyeon with boneless short rib combo instead of only naengmyeon. We also said that we're celebrating a birthday (which was mentioned in the text message to her too), so she said they have a special plate for birthdays. All the dishes were served together. I realized the naengmyeon combo's boneless short rib was the same as the marinated galbi in the galbi box; slight difference was the boneless short rib was leaner and overcooked compared to the marinated galbi that was fattier, but the marinade was the same so I wished we only got noodles and not the combo. The staff asked if we wanted the noodles cut, but I wanted to take a photo of it first so she didn't cut it. Because we waited to eat the cold noodles after trying the hot dishes, they clumped together, were hard, and didn't taste good (lesson learned; eat them immediately when served). The braised short ribs and galbitang with abalone were delicious. The abalone was soft. The braised short ribs were expectedly a smaller portion since it costs less than galbijjim elsewhere so I'm happy I got to try a few pieces and have room for other dishes. There was a bowl of seaweed soup with ice so we thought that was the birthday gift, but it was cold and vinegary so we didn't enjoy it. At the end of the meal a different server brought out the cinnamon tea and our check; the tea was sweet and delicious. We stayed 15-20 min after they closed, but there was another party that also just finished dining. I later looked on Yelp and found out that for birthdays they give a hot seaweed soup, and they confirmed through text that it's a hot seaweed soup and not the cold one that we had (which might've been part of the banchan). So the birthday meal would've been perfect with the hot seaweed soup.

The meat was very tender, and the sides and dipping sauces were tasty and complemented the meat really well. Everything came out quickly and was nicely presented. SERVICE: Service was pretty straightforward. They weren't extra friendly, but they were very attentive and helpful when needed. Our server instructed me to keep putting meat on the grill because otherwise the fire would go out quicker, and when it did eventually go out, they were very quick to come over and relight it. Ordering was also super easy through the iPad at each table. AMBIANCE: The atmosphere is relaxed and casual. We walked in around noon on a Sunday and there were plenty of available tables. There's also a good amount of parking, and we had no trouble finding a spot. Overall, we had a solid experience and I'm so happy I finally got to try this spot! The tender meat, tasty sides, quick service, and easy ordering process made this a solid Japanese BBQ spot.

My go-to order here is always the Marinated Galbi and cold noodles (nengmyun). The staff grills all the meat for you, and they cook everything to perfection--serious veterans here! You can tell they know exactly what they're doing when it comes to grilling the meat. I've also tried their Wagyu Brisket, which was melt-in-your-mouth good! And they now offer rice paper, which is always a plus for wrapping up that deliciously grilled meat. The cold noodles come with white vinegar and hot mustard (gyuja) on the side, so you can add as much tang and kick as you like. Their spicy cold noodles are also delicious and, despite the name, really aren't that spicy. They also have a location in Fullerton, and I've found the quality of the food to be just as good there. But there's something about the Garden Grove location--especially the longtime staff and the expertise they bring to grilling the meat--that makes this one a little more appealing to me. I'm always coming back for their Marinated Galbi and nengmyun. Such a classic Korean combo, and Morangak does it right!
