Bulgogi
Candyce P.

I've come here multiple times with friends because it's the nearest pocha to where we typically hang out. The food itself is like standard pocha food, nothing outstanding. Misoolkwan is def the pocha to go to if you want good food. Service here is pretty quick as well, nothing to complain about. However, this is a place I would come to only for convenience -- not amazing but it does the job!

It's expensive here. The food isn't even good. The chickens dry, tteokboki(spicy rice cakes) sauce is flavorless, kimchi pork stir fry is just really bad, chicken gizzards are also dry, clam soup and mussel soup are just ok, the wings' breading is too thick.. and so much more. The servers are nice but just really pricey for a place like this. It's supposed be like a neighborhood drinking spot but they charge like a rooftop bar.

OB Square is located in an older center surrounded by a few other restaurants and small businesses. It is located right of the 5 freeway at Red Hill Avenue. There's plenty of parking available. It was my first time here along with my friend. We arrived around 5:30 PM on a Friday evening. We were seated on the front left side of the restaurant. There's another section that leads to the back of the restaurant. It was pretty quiet when we were initially seated, but all the tables filled up shortly after us. There is a small tablet for each table or booth where you can order the items yourself. Be sure to drill down for each item to make your specific selections. It's not as intuitive until you start clicking on all the options. Our food came out pretty quickly after we placed the order. Be sure to ask the server for any additional sauces or spices for dipping. We requested the sesame oil and salt and chili garlic sauce which paired nicely with the gizzards. We enjoyed all of the three dishes which included spicy rice cakes, OB chicken gizzards, and OB chicken wings and ice cold beer. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious. I will definitely return with more family and friends next time.

OB Gizzard

My first time at OB square and let me tell you, I already want to go back! I came on a late night and was seated immediately. Keep in mind, they set the temperature inside pretty chilly so bring a jacket if you are planning to visit in the evening. Ordering was very simple using the tablet at the table. All items had photos to go with the dish which was great for me since I am a visual person. Food came out quickly and soon after we ordered. Spicy noodles with rice cakes was delish but be prepared for the spice! I really enjoyed the corn cheese but missed the mark with the cheese pull. Overall flavor was great though and I'd order it again. My favorite dish had to be the OB fried gizzards though. I am not usually a gizzard person but we tried it anyways. Surprisingly, I kept going back in for more and it did not have any particular smell. The seasoning and batter was PERFECT. Not too much batter, crispy, crunchy, and packed with flavor. If you aren't in love with gizzards, try their wings or other fried dishes that have their 'OB' seasoning. It is an Asian style salt and pepper with onions and jalapeño.

This is one of my favorite late night Korean spots in the OC! It's also one of our go-to spots. I've always enjoyed their food. I love their chicken wings, noodle dishes, and pigs feet. My personal favorite is their Army stew. This definitely can feed a group of people, but my husband and I love getting it so we can bring home left overs (hehe). We've also have booked their Karaoke rooms. It's a lot of fun! Pretty big room for a huge group and you can munch on some food as you sing your heart out. I've always loved their service! Super attentive and nice! They are also very considerate! And As Always, NOM 4 LIFE!

OB wings

Kimchi fried rice, OB wings and bulgogi hot stone pot are delicious. Friendly service, they don't rush you and treat you like family. Ample parking and attentive service.

I came here with a party of 4 on a Friday at 11pm and we were seated immediately. We ordered a wide variety of dishes including kimchi fried rice, jajangmyeon, pork belly and bok choy, and 3 dishes of chicken wings. Everything was so delicious! The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the parking outside is never an issue.

OB Square is the spot for some delicious Korean pub food! This spot is located in a plaza with a good amount of parking spots. They are open til 1am everyday and 2am on Fridays and Saturdays! Inside, they have a casual setup with a good amount of seating. For their menu, they have a nice selection of different wings, noodles, and other dishes to choose from. Wifey and I opted for a spread consisting of the OB Chicken Gizzards, Black Bean Noodles, and the Garlic and Thai Chicken Wings. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal here and everything hit the spot! All of the staff here are very friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend getting any of their fried chicken options. We will definitely be back for some more late night eats!

Sally L.

family favorite spot! we love going here to enjoy some beer and korean dishes. our go to items are the kimchi pork belly tofu, noodles with golbaengi, ob wings or korean wings, and the jokbal (cold). and if you want a soup we recommend the fish cake soup. always get a pitcher or two of coors light. this place always hit the spot. service is friendly and good. definitely recommend if you want beer and some good food. :)

Korean army stew

Great service from the host, comfortable setting, and delicious Budae Jjigae (Korean army stew). Highly recommend for a quick pow-wow with your friends.

I would've never thought to come here, but so happy I did. We went on a Sunday night and there weren't too many people there. We got seated super quick and all the ladies who work there are so kind. I think we went a little over board and ordered too many things, but they were all very delicious. We started with the kimchi pancake (highly recommend) and the rolled eggs (also highly recommend). Then we moved onto their fried chicken. It was so crispy and delicious! We also had the black bean noodles and a soju cocktail mix. This is definitely a place I would revisit in the near future. :)

I loved it though and it's pretty covered so even if you do go for brunch the entire patio is shady which prevents the sun from burning you - the staff and our waitress were so nice and patient. they'll take the time to go over the menu with you even during a busy brunch rush - food was SO GOOD. I ate the furai chicken and thankfully they refill the chips once you run out I'm pretty sure this place is dog friendly, BUT i didn't bring my doggo this time around.

I wanted to share some comprehensive feedback regarding a recent experience, aiming to highlight both your successes and areas where further refinement could elevate the customer journey even further. First and foremost, I must commend your team for their exceptional warmth and hospitality. From my initial phone call to the moment I picked up my order, I felt genuinely welcomed and valued. This level of customer service, which often feels lacking in many establishments today, truly sets American Grub apart. It creates a welcoming atmosphere that significantly enhances the overall experience, and I sincerely hope this commitment to friendliness remains a cornerstone of your operation. However, I encountered a couple of points that, in my personal opinion, warrant consideration for improvement. Regarding the payment process, I felt a degree of apprehension about providing my credit card details over the phone. While I understand the operational need to secure orders and prevent potential losses, particularly for larger transactions, for a single item like my bacon cheeseburger, priced at $17.24 including tax, this practice felt somewhat disproportionate. I also noted the 99-cent fee for online payments, which, while minor, might deter some customers who are seeking convenience without additional charges. Perhaps exploring alternative secure payment links for phone orders or adjusting the fee structure for smaller transactions could enhance customer comfort and streamline the process. My primary concern, however, arose upon returning home. Despite ordering a bacon cheeseburger, I discovered the burger completely lacked bacon, as well as any form of sauce or mayonnaise. This oversight had a significant impact on the meal; the absence of these core components rendered the burger quite bland and far from the experience I had anticipated. When ordering a single item, the expectation for meticulous attention to detail is particularly high, as there are fewer variables. Consequently, the overall value of the meal, given the missing ingredients, was not quite met on this occasion. I did reach out to the owner privately via email to discuss these points, and I appreciate their responsiveness and transparency in addressing my feedback, particularly concerning the rationale behind the phone payment policy. It is reassuring to know that your business is open to customer input. My hope is that these observations can serve as constructive input, allowing American Grub to continue refining its excellent service and product quality. I remain a supporter of your local endeavor and look forward to seeing these aspects addressed. Thank you for reaching out. To clarify, all my reviews and communications are crafted solely from my personal experiences and genuine perspectives, not AI. Every word and insight you read is authentically mine, driven by my commitment to provide honest feedback.

Next, they set up with drinks right away. It was so lovely being able to speak with our bartenders for the night who asked us specifically what type of cocktails we like to enjoy and if we like to sip on tall or short drinks. This experience itself was unlike any other because as soon as my drink came out, it matched EXACTLY the drink I would normally order off a menu. There are preset cocktails to choose from as well but the drink made for me was so lovely. We were next met by Chef Jason who came by and spoke to us about his favorite items on the menu currently. He made suggestions of what to order, how he would pair items together, and even put in a few items to surprise us. I am so happy we had a moment to chat with chef because hearing the story behind the dishes, why he created them, and the inspiration he took from different cuisines was so unique. Many times, we get to enjoy delicious food but we rarely sit down with the chef to understand why it was created for us in the first place. Chef Jason is such a funny, entertaining, and personable man and made the entire dinner even more special. My favorite shout out dishes have to be the Kayseri Mantisi, Wagyu Flake Steak, World Peace Burger, and Sour Patch Melon. These flavors are incredibly complex yet complement each other so wonderfully and every bite is heavenly. There are so many other dishes I tried and each deserves its own shoutout, but these mentioned above blew my mind away. Should I have another chance to come by, I definitely will take it up! The menu rotates and there are always new items that pop up so it will always be a new experience each time.

Located in a business center, the space is huge and perfect for the solo patron or being the whole family to let the kids run around the open grassy area. I love the theme of the place and the fact they also themed the names of menu items!! We picked up our beers and ordered dinner pretty fast.

For years, Hangar 24 has been a place where families can gather, enjoy great food and drinks, listen to live music, and allow their children to safely play and have fun. It has created a welcoming environment that appeals to a broad audience, and that family-friendly atmosphere is one of the reasons so many people continue to return. Last night, however, I noticed a significant change that concerned me. Instead of having the live band perform earlier in the evening, a DJ played first and the band performed much later. Many people, including myself, came specifically to enjoy the live band, and the new format seemed confusing to much of the crowd. As I observed throughout the evening, very few people were dancing during the DJ set. Most guests remained seated, looking uncertain about the change. In addition, some of the music selections and volume level felt inappropriate for a venue that attracts so many families with young children. I noticed several children covering their ears, and many parents appeared uncomfortable. From my perspective, Hangar 24's customer base is largely made up of families. Those families purchase food, drinks, and often stay for several hours while their children enjoy the outdoor space. By scheduling the live band later in the evening, many parents are forced to leave before the performance begins because their children are tired or it is simply too late for a family outing. If the goal is to attract a younger nightlife crowd, a better approach might be to have the live band perform earlier in the evening when families are present and then transition to a DJ later at night for guests who prefer that atmosphere. This would allow both audiences to enjoy the venue without alienating the families who have supported Hangar 24 for years. I am sharing this feedback because I genuinely enjoy coming to Hangar 24 and want to see it continue to succeed. I believe many guests share these concerns, and I hope management will carefully consider how these changes may impact the loyal family customer base that has helped make Hangar 24 such a popular destination. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, A Concerned Customer

Either way, make sure you pair it with any of their 10+ beers on tap and you'll for sure enjoy every moment of that bite. I ordered their cheddar bratwurst topped with pickled jalapenos and carmelized onions in a pretzel bun. The wurst was kind of the dry side but beer always helps. I do think sometimes that they over cook it which drys out all the delicious fat out of the links but I am here for drinks and a good time. Great spot to hang out for any type of gathering.
