Decided to try moms house one weekend and I am glad I tried it out because this became one of my favorite korean restaurants to eat. Went a bit early so I was the only one there to eat, but there were a lot of tables for big or small groups. They have a whole menu on the wall so you can easily choose what you want. Seems to be a family run restaurant and everything comes out pretty quickly. Ordered a few things and honestly everything was delicious Recommended Items - pork with lettuce wrap: 8.5/10 - really delicious and comes with a bowl of rice as well - kimchi fried rice: 8.2/10 reminds me of the young days when my mom made fried rice on a summer night. - potato pancake: 8.2/10 Left no leftovers during my visit and definitely will be back to order some more pork. Everything just felt like home and nothing was too over seasoned. Felt like no msg and everything seemed salted pretty evenly. There is a parking lot in the plaza so that is nice! read more

I'm shocked to see how empty it was for how amazing the food is!! I tried the seafood pancake and kimbap with kimchi OMG it's truly like eating at mom's house. Everything seems made fresh it's so so good. the space looks a bit run down in a "i've come back home after years of not seeing mom" way. idk i think this place needs more hype read more

I love this place so much! My favorite thing to get here is the Cabbage and Beef Soup #3, it's a light and flavorful soup that's both comforting and filling. 10/10 recommend! read more

Mom's House - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I learned that you can judge a Korean restaurant based off their kimchi and theirs is legit. The bone broth soup is only $12 after tax!! It's kind of a no frills spot but the food is def good quality, like the home cooking from your Korean friends mom. The broth was rich and flavorful and the beef slices were nice and tender. I knew the food was gonna be solid when I saw the grandma working back in the kitchen, this place exceeded all expectations. read more

Cheap sullungtang but it was basically water, they even forgot the meat when it first came out. We ordered the military soup which was $40..it came with only 2 noodle bunch. The weirdest part was when we wanted to take our food to go, they said it was a $2 charge. Never been charged to take home food we payed for. Wouldn't recommend. read more

Popped in here on a New Year's Day for dinner. Place is an unassuming hole in the wall. The lady working reminds me of a typical Asian mom, very direct / blunt but also caring. Tried the army soup. Perfect for the cold weather we are having right now. Couldn't stop eating and was very full. read more

So good but somewhat pricey. We ordered the Bulgogi and a hot stone bibimbap. And tonsssss of side dishes. Very tasty and warm. Parking was a nightmare but this kinda made up for it. Definitely worth coming back! read more

Mom's House - a table full of asian food - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Open 24hours! $13.54 Tofu to-go comes with rice and side dish. Legit!! My expectation is fairly low for late night comfort food in this area. Not the best, and not the worst; edible. Looking forward to dining in next time and try: #33 chicken sauteed for 2ppl, around $30. 930pm Thursday night has maybe 1/4 store filled with what looks like Korean dad's, and Latino family. Legit authentic eating local crowd. Small parking lot. read more

Tried their cheapest $7.99 sulungtang ( beef soup) in the menu. We only ordered 2 sulungtang so they only gave us 2 ban chan(side dishes)- kimchi and radishes . We saw other customers got 4 ban chan(side dishes) because they ordered different dishes. I was able to ask more kimchi after I finished it. For $7.99, I don't complain the quality of beef slices are not tender enough, and the soup was delicious. Kimchi and radishes tasted good as well. It's pretty worth it since all other restaurants sell sulungtang for $13.5 and up. I will come back for their cheap sulungtang ! read more

I used to go to this place more often but recently they started to give less food for more expensive price! Only 3 side dishes instead of 5 and they put less meat so sad! Also there are so many flies sitting on food!!! read more

I have to start this review by saying they have the BEST kimchi in town! It could be the best kimchi I have eaten in my life, and I've eaten tons of kimchi in my lifetime. Soondae soup - has a good amount of soondae + tripe + intestines. If you're a fan of those types of innards, you'll love this soup. Sauteed kimchi and sliced pork - OMG this was so good! Super duper tasty! Frozen pollack stew - the broth was very flavorful with a good amount of fish. side dish - there were a few side dishes served... kimchi, bean sprouts, radish kimchi, steamed egg, and fish cake. They were all good, no disappointments here. Overall, a good place to dine. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic korean food that won't break your piggy bank. read more

Honestly just had the worst experience here just now, there is a Korean waitress that always, always ask for tips. A lady with a red bob, last time we went to this place with my mother she ended up tipping the only change in cash we had and the red head Korean lady ended up tossing the change onto the table claiming "she's not poor enough to accept this". Today we came in for another try, but again. I only carry card and not cash and this lady isn't satisfied with measly change so she ends up chasing us outside the store and starts saying she doesn't want us back. Crazy. read more

Arriving late to LA, not much dining options past midnight. Chose this place, which was open 24/7 and had menu items that appealed at this late hour. Our group ordered sullongtang (bone marrow soup) and beef and vegetable soup. Soup was ok, a bit on the thin side. Waitress gave us a poached egg appetizer as a service item, which was nice. Both were good, not great. It served purpose of sating late night hunger after a long flight. Side dish banchans were ok. This place in any other US city would be a 4 star, but in LA where there are so many great places to choose from it's a 3 star on a bell curve. read more

One of the oldest korean restaurants in k town but is underrated. You can possibly find any korean home style menu you can think of and the taste is consistently average to above average - you're not going to be disappointed. Emo (Auntie in Korean) here is really lovely and caring. I like their pan fried fish (imyeonsoo) and Gochujang soup. read more

24 Hours Delivery for good home style cooked Korean food gets an A+ for me. On those nights you stay in or early mornings when you need a good broth or jjjigae to hold it down for you~ call Moms House. I usually order the kimchi jjigae with extra rice cake () and it hits the spot. Just ordered it right now as a matter of fact. The lady who works there is so sweet on the phone. I asked for extra side dishes and they hooked it up! (Yes we are hungry over here!) Keep in mind- Moms House is a hole in the wall staple for late night munchin in Koreatown. This won't be anything top notch that will mind blow your foodie palate~ but it wiLL give you that comforting feeling that you're eating at mom's. read more

Old school Korean restaurant that is literally a hole in the wall. I love the price, food choices and corky waitresses that remind me of my own mother. This place has the making of great sitcom with unique characters. You will see people from their 20's to 80's, Koreans, Korean Americans, Mexicans, Americans, etc. All types of people from all walks of life just having dinner, laughing and enjoying a warm meal. It's my go to place for late nights when the craving comes alive. read more

We stumbled upon this spot while looking for a place to eat dinner. We went around 7pm, and I ordered the katsu but she said they wouldn't be able to make it. Keep in mind this place is 24/7 and they just said no because they didn't want to make it when it was "late" at night. So I ended up ordering the soondae gook, but the soondae in it was bad. She said she'll replace it with something else but was annoyed about it and NEVER said sorry once. I hate leaving bad reviews for mom and pops restaurants but overall had such a bad experience here with the food and customer service. read more

my friend was coming off a cold so i told her let's have korean soup. eventho I live in ktown, i'm not really familiar with which restaurants are good so i used yelp & found this place. it's pretty cheap for the items we wanted. I also saw that they sell rice cake so I asked oma how spicey it was & she said it wasn't spicey @ all so I asked if she could make it real spicey & she said 'yes'. I couldn't wait. when she brought it to our table....OMG it was spicey & the flavor was soooooo good. anyway, the sign shows that it is open 24hrs. so if ur in the neighborhood & is hungry 4 korean food, i say 엄마 집 is the place to go. read more

Love this place, can't believe I hadn't tried this sooner!! I've lived here for a while and never been, until recently, now I'm obsessed!

I have lived in Ktown for 3 years now. My Korean roommate and I have tried pretty much every place in a 2 mile radius of Wilshire and Catalina. We both agree that Mom's house is some real home style delicious Korean food. "Hole in the wall" so to speak, but amazing soon Tofu, side dishes, and Gamjatang. Also open late! read more

Mom's House - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Great little Korean traditional food place run by a fam. It opens 24/7 and runs special price on certain items. I got sulrungtang and it's actually pretty descent. At the price, 5.99, you can't find this quality anywhere else in LA. They server doesn't come to you as often as you would like, or used to at other restaurants. You need to call for the help and she will come by. I liked that the owner lady brought the soup from the kitchen and greeted me. :) felt like I was at my "moms house" read more

When a friend mentioned that there was a place in ktown with sul lung tang for only $4, I was a bit skeptical that such a place existed. I also wondered what kind of sul lung tang you could get for so cheap. But then all my curiosities were answered after finding this place and experiencing it for myself. Side dishes - We got 3 tonight: an egg one, kkakdugi, and cabbage kimchi. Kkakdugi, which is one of my favorites, was actually pretty good... it had the right amount of crunch and wasn't too sour. The other two were good too and we got plenty of refills. Sul lung tang - When the bowl first came out, it looked a little small, but at the end of the meal I was actually quite satisfied. The broth was nice and milky, and I didn't have to add much salt. There were also a good amount of noodles and meat pieces, I just wish the meat was a little more tender. But this was pretty decent for $3.99. It might not be the best sul lung tang, but it definitely hits the spot and good for late night eating. Other Pros: -parking lot with no valet -open 24 hours If you can't read Korean, look for a red sign. I'll have to try the yuk gae jang next time :) read more

It was the worst. I paid $ 55 including tip, the waitress said thats not enough so I paid $58 because she was staring at me while at our table. I see my checking account and the employee charged $60 . I dont care about the extra $2, but they are liars and an unethical business read more

VISIT ONE it's extremely hard to order something different because i so love the KIM CHI FRIED RICE. but i made myself order the BIBIMBAP. then my order came and it wasn't BIBIMBAP at all, it was BEEF AND ONIONS over rice! my bad for asking questions about the beef menu picture with an obvious language barrier. so i ate it, figuratively and literally. i never order cheap beef dishes at asian restaurants because you get the CURLY PIECES OF MEAT with FAT GLOBULES on the edges, and that's what this was, although it was considerably LESS GLOBULAR than i expected. flavor was ok but i couldn't hack the texture. i didn't finish it and would not recommend. i like my meat pristine. VISIT TWO the next day came back and i got the BIBIMBAP. i didn't expect the rice to come on its own, the rest in a large stainless mixing bowl. i mixed it all up with the sauce and it was good but not stellar. what makes bibimbap great to me is when the beef is savory with seasoning, the egg yolk is runny, and the ratio of fatty flavor to non-fatty kim chis hits a balance. there was too much lettuce, not enough yolk, more like a crisp salad. i give it an average rating. i spied a SAUSAGE STEW being heated at another table. it looked bubbly, savory, thick with sausage. i couldn't pronounce the Korean name of it, even after hearing it thrice, but i'm told it's called SOLDIER STEW. maybe i'll get it the time after next... i gotta have the KIM CHI FRIED RICE soon! happy Yelping and here's to tasting life! read more

Tried HaeJangGuk and SeolLungTang. SeolLungTang (beef bone soup) is good (& gotta love the affordable price). Loved the HaeJangGuk. Beef & Vegetable soup. Not spicy. Reminds me of home cooking. Can't wait to try YukGaeJang (spicy beef & vege soup) next time. read more

Hands down the CHEAPEST sullungtang you'll find in ktown. $4/bowl! Such a good run for your buck. I had my reservations before going here too, (just because it's so cheap), but it was pretty solid. Nothing shady about it, and tummy felt fine. They slack on the banchan (side dishes) though. But what can you expect when you're selling food for cheappp, rah? This is definitely a go-to spot when you want your basic, not-so-fancy Korean food without breaking your wallet. And we all need that once in a while, ammi right? read more

I love moms house! Ever since my friend introduced it to me after our late night study sesh! She mentioned a korean place that was open 24/7 cause it was late, of course I couldn't decline. The only food I got from here are the Kimchi fried rice, Pork cutlet, the beef with veggies/pork with veggies. All of them are delicious. I only had the fried rice and cutlet once. Usually I just order the beef with veggies. I've been there multiple times. The beef/pork with veggies is so delicious because if you love lettuce wraps, this is what you need to order. I always like my lettuce wraps with one piece of meat, a small pea size of some bean paste, kimchi and garlic. and OM NOM NOM! DELICIOUS! Its fairly pricey, 12.99? But it definitely fills you up! I walk out a happy camper. Service here is always a hit or miss, youll have a good day or a bad day. Mostly, i've been getting bad services. Usually, korean places gives you the side at least 5 minutes once you're seated right? Not with moms house, you get your sides once you get your food... and that can take a while... like seriously...a while... and they get all picky when you finish the sides in under a minute. Excuse us if we're starving broke college students. But thats just a nick in their grannies. Overall, I really love moms place since its so chill and relax here. Its my go to place late at night! 4 Stars for yummy food but ok service! Have Fun and Good Luck! read more

Mom's House - Beef with veggies and saaaaaangchuuu~ (lettuce) with the rice and sides. BUT WHERES MY GARLIC?! - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

OPEN 24 HOURS. I rarely go here anymore since I don't really go out late at night anymore which is usually when I come eat at this place since its 24 hours. During the day its not as packed but when its like 2-3am its super packed with people coming from bars, clubs--you know what I mean. Its your basic hole in the wall Korean restaurant. Definitely way better than hodori! The food here actually tastes pretty decent. I usually get the katsu or the kimchi fried rice. Yummy!! The parking lot here is tiny and I've dinged my car once backing out! Street parking is obviously hard to find in ktown. read more

I honestly had to street search this on google map just to find it to make a yelp review. It's literally a hole in the wall restaurant with about 8 tables. Granted it was a little packed to navigate around the food was simply delicious. Also the service was pretty great too. Great for solo dining or a late night dinner! read more

Mom's House - Pork katsu - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Been here for several times, and recently became my only reason for coming to K-Town. Everything here is perfect and the server always have the best service. It's safe to say they have the best kimchi in Los Angeles, and anything on the menu is so good, so basically you don't even need to read the menu closely to make a decision. Everything is amazing. I would say the only problem here is that the parking spots are pretty limited because it's located in a very small plaza, but it's pretty common for most places here. So plan ahead for your parking. read more

PRO: Open 24/7 CON: Can't think of any. I came here with a friend a few weeks ago. This place was cheap, open 24/7, and had what I wanted. Why not? PARKING: Parking wasn't that bad, but we came here at like 1am. I would assume parking is a pain in the ass during the day because it's Ktown. AMBIANCE: Hole in the wall. Bit ghetto.... SERVICE: Pretty good. The server didn't speaking English and neither of us is Korean. Pointing helps. FOOD: Portion size was alright, and the taste was good. I ordered the galbi tang and for some reason, my favorite place for that so far is in Gardena and not Koreatown. I still enjoyed it though. I would be come here or another 24/7 place. read more

We went to this restaurant on Friday, My son got the worst food poisoning ever, my husband and I were sick but not as bad as my son, he ate some disgusting fish that smell so foul, the kitchen looks disgusting, the guy who was cooking the food his apron was super dirty, I shouldn't buy the food, I never going back there, my son is been sick for 3, I don't recommend anyone to eat at this place. Very disappointed with the amount of money I expend just to get sick. To anyone please always check how the kitchen look and the cook, I learned my lesson! read more

My family and I have been customers for over 2 decades. However, I came to this restaurant on Friday and noticed that the kitchen looked very dirty. I ordered fish, but the fish was smelling really bad, and almost had a putrid smell. In my mind, I was thinking that the smell was normal. I had some of the worst food poisoning I have ever gotten from eating at this place and even ended up at Urgent Care. My family also got sick, but there symptoms weren't as severe as mine. After falling severely ill, I realized that the smell of the fish wasn't normal. I really loved this place, but I am never coming back. Their food almost killed me. read more
