    Fried mackerel with side dishes in top photo. Cold noodles in beef broth with side of steamed beef and leeks dumplings.
    Jenna K.

    If you ever want just fast but yummy food court Korean dishes - this is the place!! Crowded (it's Sunday), but clean - I ordered a combo noodle and Korean dumplings set for $16!!! Hubbs ordered a ginormous mackerel from Jin for $16!! What an economically delicious lunch, especially in this day and age!!! Service was swift and friendly and the side dishes were flavorful and plenty! Who needs fancy restaurants when Noodle Plus and Jin delivers 5+ star quality food!! Also - we decided to tip the two gentlemen who work tirelessly to clean up after the patrons quickly!!

    clam kalguksu with banchan :)

    There's outdoor dining now on the upper parking lot now! I haven't visited in a while. Back at home in San Francisco, I always crave a hearty bowl of kalguksu (hand-cut noodles), and this is my go-to spot when I'm in Ktown for the past several years. Finally got to sit down for my first review. I love to support family-run businesses, and the mother, father, and daughter always provide the best service. I was stoked when I found out they were open for outdoor dining. They bring the food in takeout containers so that you can bring your leftovers home. Highly recommended dishes: -mandu (handmade dumplings) -cold noodles with salmon sashimi (super fresh cuts!) -of course, kalguksu (clam, oyster, seafood combination) The kalguksu broth is very light and flavorful. The portions are very hearty and the banchan (side dishes) are great too! Thanks, Noodle Plus!

    Salmon Mixed Noodle

    Great service!! The people that are working there are really fast and super friendly! I order their Salmon Mixed Noodle for the first time ever and it tastes amazing and very fulfilling! I also order their Fishcake Soup that tastes really good, amazing, and fulfilling as well. I definitely will come back again for ordering more of their tasty food items from the menu to choose from because of their beautiful food presentation. Thank you all so much!!

    Snail mixed noodles $13.99 plus tax

    Humongous portion - best to be shared! I made the mistake of ordering their snail mixed noodle for myself. Way too much of the same thing in one meal. I got tired of the texture and flavor 1/3 mark in. Mountain worth of soba noodles + julienned mixed veggies, but a sprinkle of snail pieces - yes a lot of veggies and noodles but not sure it was worth $15? The flavor wasn't exactly unique. I was given container of generic red pepper paste to add on my own. In addition, it took them forever to have my order ready despite being the only customer. My husband was half way through his giant Tonkatsu platter from the adjacent counter before i saw any signs of my order being assembled. Overall - snail mixed noodles? Glad I gave it a try since I have never seen it served elsewhere in ktown but don't think I would get it again.

    soba noodles

    I had their cold soba noodles. It had 3 mounds of noodles, grated daikon, green onions, yellow pickled radish, and the broth. It was super filling and ~$14!

    Where is the kimchi in this supposed "kimchi dumpling"?

    DO NOT EAT HERE. We ordered 떡만두국 and the dumpling fillings were rotten. We told the ladies working there and they said it's kimchi mandu and that's the way it's supposed to taste. Do y'all see any kimchi in this filling?? Cuz we don't, and it smelled rotten. When we first got the order, they had added no salt and instead of apologizing they reprimanded the cook in front of us and shoved some salt into our hands.

    Kimchi kalguksu
    Karen K.

    Pros: -Big portions -Korean banchan (side dishes) included, of course. Kimchi is solid, here -I don't really like Kalguksu (knife noodle) that much, but the Kalguksu here is yummy. I got the Kimchi Kalguksu Cons: -Sashimi Noodle Salad doesn't taste that great. The sauce is not balanced. I think it is a bit too acidic and not spicy enough. Needs more gochujang (red pepper paste) and chan geerum (sesame seed oil).

    Clam noodle soup. It's cleanly delicious. Even side dish are very good too. I will be visit this place again

    Just ate a very satisfying round of banchan, korean fried chicken, chol myun and cold noodles. Someone left a one star review griping about fruit on soba noodles but they clearly shouldn't be reviewing if they can't identify the noodle type properly. Overall, great fast casual Korean place. I will be returning.

    Sorry, I dug in before thinking to take a photo. Not the most flattering picture, but this Sprouts Mixed Rice bowl is so yum!
    Becky K.

    This is my favorite spot at the Koreatown Galleria food court. That's saying a lot considering this food court touts many strong options like the popular pork cutlet place in just the next stall over. The vaguely named Noodle Plus is my favorite for good comfort food in the most purely Korean way. The best way I know how to describe their food is that their food tastes clean. So to explain... Korean food is often regarded as generally healthy. It's true that compared to common American food court fare, yes it's healthier but among Koreans, some things like bulgogi and even some type of soups are considered splurge meals due to its high fat or sodium and spice content and it's never considered a healthy diet to be eating these things every day. Noodle Plus is food that you could find at home but far more spruced up. Like if you had a beautiful apron-clad health-conscious Korean lady for a mom with some serious home-cooking chops, just chop-chopping away in her pristine kitchen making meals for you.. this is the food she might be churning out. My favorite menu item so far is their Sprouts Mixed Rice. So like their restaurant name, it doesn't sound very exciting but trust me, this is a showstopper dish because it is a mixed rice bowl that comes still sizzling in a stone pot with a nice oozy egg yolk that gets cooked when you mix the rice up turning it into this creamy texture that is perfect. The rice is topped with bean sprouts along with other nice veggies but it also contains a good amount of seasoned ground beef. While mixing, I also spied some chickpeas in there like mom was trying to sneak a little something extra healthy but I didn't even mind because it really worked. And don't forget to douse the bowl with the small tub of their special soy sauce to taste before you mix everything up, and do the mixing fairly soon. You want the rice at the bottom to crisp up a bit so that when you mix everything you get this unbelievable texture with the occasional crunch, but of course, you don't want anything to burn. So let it sizzle a bit, then pour in that soy sauce mixture and mix away before enjoying. It's just the perfect thing to have when you feel like treating your body well but you want it to taste amazing too. Each of their dishes come with around 3 side dishes that change up every so often, and a little bowl of soup. Because I love the sprouts mixed rice so much, I didn't try anything else yet but wow I saw some things other people we're ordering and they looked amazing, like a noodle dish with yulmu kimchi (radish stem kimchi) which is a perfect summer dish or just something to have when you want something light. I love that sort of food, fresh vibrant and clean flavors. I actually think this may have been a temporary special because I didn't see it on the menu before and instead was on a poster separate from the main menu. I know restaurants sometimes have a nice seasonal ingredient that they want to integrate into the menu but only just until that ingredient is at its best. I'm guessing that's what happened here. I highly, highly recommend trying this place out. The restaurant name and the look of the stall is very unassuming but their food speaks for itself. It's so unassuming that I always forget which stall I got my favorite sprouts mixed rice from and I end up chatting with all the ladies in each stall to find it again. This review is kind of a way to remind myself which stall it was, like leaving a breadcrumb trail. I figured my fellow Yelpers could benefit as well :)

    Spicy seafood soup and salmon sashimi cold noodle were really good!! I do recommend them!!
    Hyo L.

    This is my favorite food in LA and I love the salmon sashimi cold noodle, spicy seafoods soup, steam korean dumpling and fried vegetables. I do also recommend the seafood noodle soups, called kalguksoo, that's really good. Thank you!!

    It's very possible that this is the world's best chicken noodle soup. Rich and pure chicken flavor,…read moreperfectly chewy knife-cut noodles that likely cook in the stock so the starch releases to give it a beautiful texture. Also got the oyster porridge. Very solid dish, but that kalguksu reigns supreme. Valet parking in the lot will run you $5-6, and the best time to go is within an hour of opening. The place fills quickly. The team works efficiently to turn tables without making you feel rushed. Highly recommended.

I tried coming 15 minutes before opening on a Sunday during lunch time and that helped a lot! Would recommend coming during the day if you want to avoid waits. Some of our favorites: -Chicken Kalguksu: I get this every time! The broth is amazing, have never had such a rich, flavorful chicken broth before. You can taste all the herbs, seasonings, and time they took to prepare. The broth is a little on the thicker end, but super filling. -Seafood Kalguksu: the broth is so flavorful and it comes filled to the brim with all types of seafood! The spice actually pairs really well with the seafood too. If you want a spicy stew, this is it! Noodles are thick and chewy too. -Bossam: so yummy! I wish I could get it more often but it's a huge portion, so come with a group so you can try it and the noodles! Everything is quality- the bossam slices, the lettuce, the toppings on the wide. Chefs kiss! My only small gripe is the portions are so big that when I come with one other person, we only have the stomach capacity to eat two dishes! Always excited to come back and try more.

As a party of 3, we all ordered the set menu with barley rice, and I could not even begin to tell you how shocked I was when the waitress brought out the food. It was dish after dish after dish, and by the end of it, the entire table was completely filled with food. All the dishes were well flavored and complemented each other nicely. I really enjoyed that you can mix everything together and create your own combination of flavors depending on what you're in the mood for. There's a nice variety of textures and flavors, so the meal never felt repetitive. To get some protein (and fat lol), we also ordered the bossam. The pork belly was cooked perfectly... tender, juicy, and flavorful. It paired really well with the crispy cabbage and pickled vegetables, which helped cut through the richness of the pork. Overall, this was a really satisfying meal. You get a ton of food for the price, the flavors are solid, and the experience was really unique. Definitely a great spot to come with a group so you can enjoy the variety of dishes together.

    What an experience!! Hehhe…read more We got the Set. We also ordered the galbi short ribs. It was about $50 for the ribs alone!! At first glance, everything looked amazing. Down the line, I realized that the set was basically a bunch of ban chan. Some were interesting because other Korean restaurants don't serve it. We were advised to use it to create our own bibimbap. The perilla porridge stood out most. I never had perilla porridge. The taste was unique. It had chicken inside. The small cup of pumpkin soup was yummy. The soybean soup (fermented soy bean stew) had a very pungent smell. I wanted to enjoy it, but it wasn't for me. I couldn't stand the smell and not comfortable with the taste. Wish they gave an option to choose from different stews. The desserts were good. I also like their plum tea/juice. The galbi was well marinated. Not as tender as I was hoping for, but it was still delicious. With the price, I do feel like the set should include a dish of meats. Especially since the restaurant requires 2 people at $34 each for the set. If you go 3 people, prob more worth it. Overall, it was a fun experience. Service was great.

If you're searching for some of the city's best pork, then those in the know will bring up Ham Ji Park. For 2 decades, generous platters of pork ribs and pork neck stew decked every table. Now, our Korean friends lament the loss of their favorite pork joint in the city. The Koreatown proper location is located in the Royal Plaza mini-mall, just a few blocks off bustling Wilshire. Discounted parking is available in a lot across the street from the Chevron gas station. From the street, the entrance is flanked by potted plants and an enclosed street-ery. Inside, stainless steel chairs are pressed up against wooden tables, each outfitted with a metal grill. Oppressive fluorescent lighting shines down on the stone grey walls, which are left undecorated apart from a few flatscreens. Multi-lingual chatter blends with the sizzle of platters. I visited with some friends for a weeknight dinner, and about half of the tables were occupied. We shared a spread of grilled platters and sizzling soups. The meal began with a carafe of barley tea and a mostly standard spread of banchan. Across our food, the best dish was the signature Charbroiled Pork Spare Rib. The ribs were flavorful without feeling gamey, and the meat was complemented by sweet caramelized onions. The pork ribs handily outdid the good-not-great Charbroiled Beef Short Rib. Lastly, the Milt and Cod Rose with Vegetables stew was fishy and briny, appropriately flavored for the Korean palate. The service was appropriately attentive, although I would've appreciated more intentional refills of our banchan ramikens. The rib plates cost upward of $35 each, while the soup was just under $30. The portions were hearty; a single entree platter could reasonably feed 2 moderately hungry bellies. It's a shame to hear that Ham Ji Park has closed; I'm kicking myself for not trying their pork neck stew earlier.
