Tried the kimbap (double roll) and the spicy rice cake (small) and grabbed a tub of the shikhae (dessert beverage with rice). Kimbap and the spicy rice cake tasted clean like your mama would make, instead of msg infused to force it to taste good, so this is a healthier kind of food in my book. Shikhae is supposed to be a sweet dessert type of drink, but here it was just overwhelmingly sweet. Next time, I would just go for kimbap and maybe try some of the packaged banchans (sides), since there is a huge variety of them ready to take and eat. Shikhae is a no go for me, strange how this is so strong while the kimbap was more on the bland/clean side. read more

I've have the food twice from here and went to pick up some food for lunch today. Everything we picked up today was great. We love their gimbap and would recommend this place to all of our friends and family. The staff is very friendly and nice. There are a lot of different items to choose from and so far my family hasn't been disappointed in any of the dishes we picked up. Definitely 5 stars in my book. read more

This has always been my go to place for kimbap and spicy raw crab. I've been coming here through Out covid when it was open to support local Korean places like this. Food here has never disappointed me. Recently I came by to pick up some spicy raw crab. Went home immediately to eat it and it tasted sour to me and confirmed by my mom the next day that it was not a fresh batch and color was off as well. I ended up tossing away the crabs and I called the place to let them know that they're bad. At the first the girl on the phone apologized and said they'd credit me back but few days later received a long text explaining how chef who made it insisted they weren't bad so I would have had to bring the crabs back for a refund lol.... Js annoyed and Looking for another place for spicy crabs now. read more

Was hungry in an unfamiliar area, checked with Yelp for recommendations...nice job reviewers. Got the 12-piece fried chicken wings. Hot DAMN that's some good chicken! I got half dry, half sauce...should have gotten all sauce...but both were terrific. Thanks, Yelp. Now I'm gonna be craving these, and I live nowhere near this spot. read more

Oh Mama Kitchen - 12-piece chicken wings...half dry, half sauce. - Korean Near Me - La Mirada, California

Must Go for Korean side dishes!! Especially their Ggakdoogee (radish kimchi), seaweed soup, & any side you might want. So good. And apparently, at a get together the food there was catered from Oh Mama! I seriously thought it was home made, & that's the thing!! The food here is HOME MADE. Just not the host. Legit by Mama!! And I believe her sister. So so good. read more

Best banchan in town. Their food is perfectly seasoned and always fresh! Their tuna kimbap is highly recommended. Their tuna kimbap ALWAYS has a very generous portion of tuna. read more

Okay this has to be the best Korean fried chicken I've ever had. The chicken is extremely crispy and flavorful. I got the mixed order, and both are sooo sooo good. The ladies are extremely courteous. You'll see then working hard, mixing and packaging foods. It's a tiny shop so I suggest you order ahead of time. I would give it 5 stars but they forgot my order of Korean pancake. :( I would have gone back but I live 30 minutes away from the restaurant. So definitely visit this place. read more

Phenomenal service The wings are delicious, like very delicious They're also freshly made I love this place I will definitely be coming back read more

This place offers pretty yummy and affordable rolls. No wonder they have five stars on Yelp. Most of the rolls and deli items are delicious. I especially like the roll w spam, bulgogi and the California roll. Their fried chicken is pretty good. Make sure you call in advance to pre order as things get bought up during dinner or lunch rush hours. read more

After relaxing at a nearby Korean spa, I was craving some chicken wings and I was pretty excited to experience their light, crispy, and nicely battered fried chicken. I ordered the fried chicken wings which they fry as soon as you order. I was given some sweet rice punch (sikhye) which had a refreshing taste and a slight ginger heat while I was waiting for my order. After a short wait, I was blessed with some of the most bomb diggity wings I have ever had in my taste repertoire of fried chicken wings - I had half regular and half special garlic sauce which was very sweet, salty, and savory. Despite being very well battered and fried, the wings did not feel heavy at all and there was a nice crispy-ness that came with ear bite. One thing that came with the order was a cup of pickled radishes which were sweet, sour, salty, and crunchy which perfectly balanced out the fried chicken. I am a huge sucker for pickled stuff so I ate all of it and even drank some of the brine. The service was very good and the cashier was very friendly. When other customer had questions or wanted suggestions, I noticed that the cashier would help and try their best to match whatever the customer was craving. Also, their (owner?) gave me some kimbap on the house as well and they were very well made and had crunchy pickles. The establishment has a very homey atmosphere and I will be returning whenever I am in the area after a day at kspa and I encourage everyone to grab a bite here as well! read more

Whether you need to place an order or just stop by and pick up something quick for dinner, Oh Mama is the place to go. I'm just getting started learning about Korean comfort food, but everything I have tried is delicious. Look at the other reviews for more about how this Korean food compares to others. You always get a little more than you paid for at Oh Mama, so you are plenty satisfied. They have menu items, a fridge full of prepacked items, and frozen foods made there. read more

I'm so glad that Oh Mama stayed open all throughout the COVID-19 and stayed so solid and professional about social distancing, sanitizing all the areas after each customer left and had such amazing early morning hours .I get a mixture of both fusion and super traditional take out like red bean porridge with no additives but 100% natural. Tastes so good. I also realized that the fried chicken wings have improved in flavor and texture. A lot more crispier than I last remember. Yes, I eat this quite very often for those who are aware. read more

Great Korean street style food here. I came with 2 other people and we ordered small dukbokki, 12 piece fried chicken, and large oden soup. Interior is very humble especially with the lofi study beats playing in the backgroundZz. ODEN Everything was served fresh, but the best part was probably the oden. The soup was really flavorful, with onions umami bonito flakes, and nice helpings of oden. The store owner even did us a favor by splitting the large size oden into 3 cups. DDUKBOKKi Standard ddukboki and the spicy sauce is not too sweet like other Korean shop offerings. In addition Tom the rice cakes, there are a lot of onions, small pieces of fish cake and a large egg inside. FRIEDS CHICKENS Decent fried chicken in Korean soy garlic sweet flavor. They also have spicy vinegary sauce for dipping. read more

My wife and I went to Oh Mama Kitchen today on the recommendation of many satisfied Yelp customers. Thank god we did because the food was fantastic!!! We ordered both the crispy and the soy garlic chicken, some assorted "banchan" side dishes and some delicious seaweed and california rolls. Their signature chicken was crispy, very flavorful and not oily at all. My wife and I loved it!!! In addition, all the food was healthy and looked so nice and well presented. Service was outstanding and everyone was so nice!!! Please, enjoy this food experience because you won't be disappointed... Dan and Susan Suzuki (: read more

So sad I didn't know about this place earlier!!! Everything is so fresh and delicious. But what really makes it stand out from all other banchan places is their cleanliness. It's an open kitchen concept store so you can look into the kitchen. Well organized kitchen counters, white dish towel, sanitary packaging process, and cleanliness of the chefs affirmed the food is safe to eat. You can buy all sorts of banchans (side dishes) from mixed vegetable to raw crab marinated in soy sauce. You name it, they've got it! This place is already so awesome with its wide banchan collection but they serve comfort food as well! And the best part? You don't have to tip! I had the fried chicken, beet kimbop, pancake, and fishcake soup. Fried chicken had the perfect breading to meat ratio; I didn't have to take off any breading like I normally do! Beet kimbop was refreshing, pancake was packed with veggies, and fish cake soup was comforting. They put katsuobushi in their fish cake soup which adds more depth. It's a family owned place so service was on point and they try their best to cater to your needs. Definitely going back for banchans and comfort food! read more

This is a cute hole in the wall shop right across the street from kspa! After spending some time there we got a little hungry but wanting to avoid the high prices and mediocre food there, we searched far and wide for some Korean style snack food elsewhere. And lucky for us (and our bellies!) It was so close! We ordered kimbap ($8) and fried chicken wings (12 for $13) and both amazing! The kimbap was filled with crunchy pickles and held its integrity. Definitely one of the best I've had by far! The fried chicken was crunchy, battered quite well, and sauce was a lovely garlicky flavor! The radish pickles that came with it was great too! All in all excellent food! The cashier was super sweet and throughout our dining time, she checked in with us a lot! The space was very small yet comfy and it felt more like a meal at home rather than in marketlike/Togo space. Also, I enjoyed the playlist playing since it was all Bruno Mars hehe! Oh Mama was a nice surprise and others who visit shall see why! read more

Oh Mama Kitchen - Fried Chicken Menu - Korean Near Me - La Mirada, California

Oh Mama's Kitchen is one of the hidden gems here in Buena Park. This place's chicken wings, kimbap, and spicy rice cake are phenomenal. With that said, I'm not Korean and I'm not a connoisseur of this type of food by any means. My claim to expertise and knowledge of food extends to the Del Taco value menu and New Capital's dimsum dishes. But I still love this place, its cute decor and friendly staff. They started a year ago, is family owned by a nice Korean couple and kids, and just seems like a wholesome place. Support your mom and pop shops and give this place a shot! read more

Oh Mama Kitchen - Korean Near Me - La Mirada, California

Oh Mama has the freshest and tastiest kimbap (gimbap) outside of Korea itself. Whether you choose the made-to-order vegan rolls, or any of the various other options sitting on the shelf, you can feel certain that the fresh and quality ingredients have been perfectly selected and matched to provide an enjoyable meal. But of course, it doesn't stop there. The huge variety of banchan is impressive and exciting to look through. Sides like the seasoned bean sprouts and spinach, Kim chi, or the pickled cucumbers (not exactly pickles), are certain favorites. Though not everything is perfect, as the fresh seaweed repeatedly disappoints. The setting is a very small space in a strip mall, without seating or barely even much space to walk around in, especially if two or more other patrons are also present. It has a homey feel as it seems like it might be a family business. Large vats of food being prepared for behind the counter is cool to look at and tempts one to try the fresh creations. Service is swift and polite, but don't touch too many items. It is clear that cleanliness, especially in the world of Covid, is of utmost importance. Which is what you would want from a place preparing the food you will ingest. I would highly recommend this location, and hope they open up all over... read more

Quick and easy lunch food. Decently priced and you can see the cooks put love and care in the food. Oh Mama is located behind a Polly's Pies, near a Korean spa. The place has a very homey feel and the cashier was very friendly. We ordered the fried chicken (24 for $25) and and grabbed two kimbap (around $5-6) as well as a side of bean spouts ($3). The food was delicious and we will definitely be back! read more

Hello there yelpers ! You need a quick bite that's ready to go ? Come by here ! The prices are very reasonable ! I ordered fish cake soup and gimbap. Gimbap were premade and it was delicious ! It's simply and easy to enjoy. The meal may not fill you but it does bring satisfaction. There's option for more pieces. If you feel like you need to stuffed ! Overall, I feel personally wholesome eating these awesome gimbaps ! :) Fish cake soup was very flavorful ! I taste some hint of soy sauce. It brings out that unami flavor. It's not heavy on the salt or watery ! This soup goes so well with the gimbap ! The fish cake are thin and long slices ! They're very soft and yummy ! Pros - very reasonable price $3 to $7 per items - quick pick up - free green tea ! Cons - parking is very compact :( read more

It's so delicious! read more

Food is decent. Cost is a little on the higher side but it beats going to the grocery store and then having to cook. Service isn't a strong suit here. Not rude but not particularly delightful. It's clean though so I feel good about the food. Their fried chicken is very crunchy and tasty! Call an order in 20 minutes before heading out and it's ready! Overall, decent spot for good Korean side dishes. (I personally didn't enjoy some of their soups - but it could just be my palate) read more

The side dishes are pretty good. I bought a few, and it added up to be so expensive so quick. It's also super clean and organized inside. I am very sad, though, that the sandwich place is closed. I also tried their fried chicken wings, and they were pretty good. It takes some time for them to cook, as they are prepared to ordered. I ended up having to wait there a few minutes. read more

I just purchase a belt fish dish... It is really delicious, but there is something you should know. You will see the sauce in the dish. When you eat, you have to dip the fish meat into the sauce. Otherwise, the seasoning will not be balanced. Do not forget to eat kabocha, the japanese pumpkin. One more thing, I would like you to know that the food container is really tight. I think it is to prevent spills. The trick is it has to be opened from one corner and if you twist the lid, it would be much easier to open. read more

Oh Mama Kitchen - Belt fish - Korean Near Me - La Mirada, California

What a wonderful surprise today. My wife & I had just gone to our optometrist and were wondering what to get for lunch. Checking Yelp, I saw there was a place nearby with a wide variety of Korean side dishes and Korean fried chicken. Turns out it was right around the corner of the parking lot. OhMama is located where the deli used to be. It's family owned and the daughter running the register, Sarah, is just the sweetest, helpful young lady. She went over what they had to offer to help us make our choice. The fried chicken is AWESOME! It's prepared just right and the pieces had a good amount of meat. The sauce has a touch of heat and is very tasty. The spicy rice cake is spicier but not overly so. The kimbap was good too. Didn't see any California roll advertised on the website though. I picked up some cucumber Kimchee which I haven't had a chance to dig into yet but I'm looking forward to dinner. I really hope the community supports this business. They are wonderful people who are producing some really good food. I think it's so important to get behind these family owned businesses and stop the march of corporate owned restaurants feeding us processed food with mass produced ingredients. Thank you Sarah for sharing your stories and helping us this morning. We wish your family all the best and that your business will prosper. read more

Overpriced and overrated. It's a decent place for side dishes but don't come here for food. You can 100% find cheaper and better options. The kimbap does not taste good enough for how it is priced. You get a tiny amount of it too. I don't understand how people are raving about the kimbap when it is literally the most standard kimbap ever. You can tell it has dried out from being left on the counter for a while. They don't use any special ingredients. Just go to your local korean grocer and you'll get 2-3 the amount for the same price AND it'll be fresh. This place gives you only 1 roll of kimbap but spreads it out on the display so it looks like you're getting enough. Nah. read more

Chicken: they use party wings and bread it thinly as to give more meat without sacrificing crunch. 12 pc comes with one small sauce container of white radish. Garlic soy sauce is tossed onto wings, and though it looks like there is barely any sauce on there, it's tastable. They don't give out extra garlic soy sauce for free on the side, but they do give reds hot sauce for free. I so wanted to be wowed by their chicken because of its popularity and the steep price tag, but it wasn't meant to be. Kimbap: these are a hit or miss. On some visits, they were good, on most others it tasted off or dry. For the price, not sure if I want to take that risk. Vegan pancakes: maybe it's because the pancakes are made from lentils that they were dry and grainy, but not a fan. read more

Looks like a really low key restaurant from the outside, but it's actually popping inside. My friend Josh introduced me to this place, saying it was a hidden gem, known only to local Korean people. I had some of the fried chicken and appetizers. The fried chicken was my fave! I would come here again. read more

Oh Mama Kitchen - This is the front. - Korean Near Me - La Mirada, California

Amazing food by an amazing woman!!! Her culinary origins are from Jeolla-Do (where great cooking, artisans and creative people come from in S. Korea)! She has been cooking since she was a little girl! She puts out two kinds of marinated crabs (Soy Sauce) and Mildly Spiced. BOTH ARE SO GREAT!!! Love her watery kimchi's: Nabak Kimchi and YulMoo (with young Napa) Kimchi. SO TASTY. Today there was sweet/savory/lightly spiced eggplant, a savory soy pepper leaves banchan that was OUTSTANDING, and then a total surprise: imitation crab jun (seasoned perfectly). So healthy. Cheaper than a sit down restaurant. Greater quality and value than your Korean grocery stores. She can do custom orders, and catering too! _____________ Previously I had the following which were truly oustandingly delish... - Miso soup with green veggies/stems and clams - Abalone porridge - Japchae (left over from a catering order) had lotsa fresh veggies - Soy sauce pickled peppers and garlic - Spicy Savory marinated perilla leaves banchan (Ketnip) read more
