Great place to pick up seaweed soup, ohdeng soup, frozen kimchee and meat dumplings, and kimbap! I love the friendly, professional service and the cheerful flowers leading up the walkway. read more

Because it is a Korean side dish restaurant, it is a place where busy office workers or foreigners who are interested in Korean food go. The food tastes worse than before and the price is....Everyone has different tastes... this is just a personal opinion.Foreign friends, if you are curious about Korean food, go there. read more

A fun little shop stocked with so many types of ready-to-eat banchan, gimbap and other homemade Korean soups, etc. Parking is free and easy in its shared lot. Staff is friendly and environment is welcoming and clean. A great stop to add some healthy side dishes to complete your meal. read more

Found this along my school to work route, thinking it was like a lil cafe but, no it was actually like a Korean pick up and go kitchen, with a lot of Korean dishes you can get. There were drinks, meal ready foods, soups, desserts and pastries. I got Korean chicken, regular and soy garlic, they were both but the soy garlic was delicious, and for how much you get and the price it's def worth it. Also got a side of tteboki (could be spelled wrong) but was def a good meal. They were also super nice and friendly, they were surprised that I knew what things were as I'm non-Korean which made them even more happy. Honest a must visit. read more

We catered a party platter of kimbap and California roll for my daughter's birthday. It was delicious and everyone was asking where we had catered it! And the presentation was also very pretty! read more

My sister introduced me to this place after seeing a video on tiktok and omg their kimbap is THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! They got many varieties like beef, tuna, spam and more! I got their spam one and let me tell you they know what they're doing. The kimbaps are perfectly and beautifully made. The spam one contains egg, fish cake, spinach, pickled radish, imitation crab, spam, and interestingly green bell peppers or jalapeños which I LOVED because it added a slight crunchy texture. All of the ingredients go so well together and it's like an explosion of flavors in my mouth, yummers!!! Aside from kimbap, they have a biiiig selection of side dishes! I was so excited I wanted to get one of everything. But I have self control and an empty wallet so I only got their kimchi. I didn't like it too much though, it seemed like it lacked the ingredients that make kimchi great, it's supposed to taste sour, spicy and umami. However, it was just spicy and plain imo. They also have soups, mochis, tteokbokki, and dumplings available. I'm only giving 4 stars because I didn't like that the cashier just dropped my change on the counter instead of respectfully giving it back on my hands. read more

Came here after searching Google for a place to grab takeout for my son who was playing a baseball tourney nearby. Ordered fried chicken and picked up California rolls. Chicken was made to order and super crispy, yet light. California Rolls had a nice proportion of avocado,"crab" meat, and rice. I knew the place was legit when there were three or four eemos (aunties) eating lunch behind the counter. Yes, H-Mart has cheaper gimbop, but the gimbop here is made on site, fresh, and with love. My guess is the H-Mart's are made in some factory. The banchan (side dishes) looked amazing as well - will get some next time. Great service by the owners and cute set up. Support small businesses! read more

Oh so much YES to this place! This is gem of Korean restaurants, well technically deli style or market style. We swung by after a day at Disneyland (it's only about 15 minutes from the park) and instantly greeted by a younger girl and older Korean Auntie, both were super sweet and friendly! They have a HUGE selection of foods all packed and ready to go - soups, salads, frozen mandu and donkatsu, kimbap, tteokbokki, pickles, salads, and more. We almost got overwhelmed by the selection! We asked about a few items and the young girl was more than happy to help us out. We ultimately decided on a vegan roll, bulgogi roll, tteokbokki, and mungean pancakes which came to $32 even. For the amount of food - and later we found out the quality and flavors - this was more than reasonable! The bulgogi kimbap was amazing. Fresh, crunchy, and pickled veggies rolled with great rice, fresh seaweed, and tender bulgogi that is sweet and savory. A bit dry but flavorful nonetheless. The vegan roll wasn't my personal favorite but my parents loved it, again full of fresh veggies and crunchy pickles. The mungbean was a favorite among all of us, it's kinda hard to describe the flavor but it's truly incredible. You get three in the package and they're hearty, crispy, fluffy, and full of veggies. Lastly the tteokbokki, it's made slightly different here since they had a hardboiled egg and more fish flavor. At first I couldn't quite figure out what it was since I wasn't used to it but it can be a bit fishy for some so fair warning! It's also not too spicy, it gives you a good kick at first but slowly mellows out. It's thick, rich and creamy! The rice cakes are so chewy and soft they have the perfect texture. The rice cakes are also soft and spongey while the egg is the perfect pairing to the sauce. This place is absolutely amazing and I can't wait to come back for more! read more

Wished there were more kimbap selections by the time I came, but since I just came about an hour early before they closed, they didn't have too much and stopped making more... Although, they have huge selection of other Korean goods that looked really fresh! Especially more fresh-looking than the ones i've seen at the market. For my visit, I chose the spam kimbap and got a cup of sikhye to go. In my opinion, the kimbap here was pretty fresh, you can tell each roll was made with care, but taste-wise, it was just okay. The sikhye, I wasn't really a big fan of. It had this ginger after taste for some reason, so I thought it was just okay. For these two items, it came out to be $9.50. For a small meal, it's pretty pricey, but the staff here was really nice and helpful, which I felt like its understandable why they would charge more for a small business and how clean and careful they are with their food and packaging. read more

When I tell you to run, don't walk, to get this food, I mean it! This was fire! I decided to try this spot because my fellow Yelpers gave it high marks and it was near a meeting I had today. Boy oh boy! I was not disappointed! Firstly, the customer service was so welcoming and helpful! The staff answered my questions, offered suggestions and even complimented my earrings! The tuna kimbap and bulgogi kimbap are so very delicious and freshly made! The potato salad is as good or better than any I've had at the best Korean bbq spots. The kimchi, bean sprouts and cucumber were crunchy, spicy and absolutely delicious! I also grabbed some beef bulgogi (simply labeled "sliced bulgogi" here) and can't wait to try it as well. read more

Tuna kimbob was meh. This is hard to mess up btw... Spicy marinated raw crabs were too salty and sweet but the crabs were meaty! Mungbean and seafood pancakes were good but the imitation crab pancakes were too fishy and had bad taste. Fish pancakes were too mushy. Ended up throwing them away. read more

Amazing Korean food! Flavors are on point, better than what the Korean grocery stores sell. Reminds me of grandma's cooking. Super quick and convenient too since the banchan and kimbap are pre-made. read more

I'm curious about the crazy high reviews.... Well because of the reviews I had to try it. What i got was a few of their kimbaps which were okay they were not bad not the best not the worst. But for the price its kinda steep. There's another place called heartfulmade does kimbaps a lot better. So why the 2 stars this place is supposed to.be about their banchans (side dishes) and that's what my family had gotten and man was that a huge mistake. We got a few sides and a radish soup. Some were completely BLAND and the others were overly sweet like candy sweet. This is where the 1 star should go. The reason for the extra star is because the kimbap wasn't bad and I didn't try their foods like their fried chicken or dukkbokki that people are raving about so who knows. Will I go back? Def not other places jus better options. read more

The place is very small but super clean with so many side dishes..I bought about $90 worth of banchan. I was pretty disappointed because only two items was good for us. The bean sprouts and cucumber. Our kimchi radish was not sour it was bitter. The slice radish was not fermented and bitter also. The lotus root was good. The burdock root was decent taste exactly like the lotus root, sweet. The soy marinate crab was ok. It wasn't bad but it neither great. That made me think maybe that's why it was price at $20 for the crab. Overall my experience there was great, services were good and place was clean. My experience with the banchan was disappointing! I probably won't be going there again only because I have a place that has really good banchan. I came here because of all the hype!!! read more

Food - Their food makes me cry...it tastes like my mom's food in South Korea. Cucumber pickle is my favorite! Service - Very kind, love their clean and easy organization of Banchan Ambiance - Homey. It is a store not a sit-down restaurant. read more

I ordered food for my son's 100th day from Oh Mama Kitchen and the food was so delicious! I ordered the beef jeon, crab jeon, California rolls, japchae, and kimchi. All ingredients were fresh and I could just tell the food was made with love and care. It tasted just like your aunt or mom would make it. The beef and crab cakes were especially my two favorites- they're a hefty size and full of flavor! Also the California rolls were really big and full of stuffing! I would definitely come back and order more. 10/10. read more

I tried their Gimbap and it was OK... but the guy needs to hide his tattoos when serving.

Cute mom and pop shop but nothing to rave about, got the bulgogi gimbap that was just sitting on the shelf for $10, as I was waiting I noticed two Korean women ahead of me in line and the owner/cashier had been very nice to them, but when it came to my turn to pay she gave the dirtiest look as if she didn't want to be bothered, I asked her about other gimbaps they had because it was my first time there and she was very rude about it. Looking at the other reviews the owner definitely treats non Koreans who don't speak korean differently, but she seemed like she was fluent in English read more

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

Ah, this spot has some sweet sad feelings. Before it became Oh Mama Kitchen , it used to be a locally known, personal favorite sandwich spot called Kwik Pick. I'm sad it's gone, but I'm also excited to see this new restaurant pop up. Oh Mamas Kitchen is a modest sized shop that offers a wide range of quick Korean eats. The menu includes a variety of kimbap , tteokbokki (rice cake in a sweet, spicy sauce), Korean fried chicken, porridge, and bento meals. The store also has a refrigerated section towards the front with a multitude of ready-to-eat banchan (side dishes). If you're on the go, they have stands displaying some ready-to-go items near the register. As a whole, I think their pricing is just fair. There are some items that are a tad overpriced (like some of the banchan) while some seem more rightly priced (like the spam and fish cake kimbap). What I really enjoy about them is the trouble-free web ordering and the quick turn around. There's another local kimbap place I used to frequent, but I seriously hate how much of a pain they are (You have to call in and hope they pick up the phone and can prepare your order in a timely manner. Also, they always seem to not have enough items available because they don't have enough staff to keep up). This place has none of those issues so far. Food: (4/5) The kimbap are pretty good. There's nothing really special about their taste, but I do appreciate the quality of the ingredients used and the generous filling-to-rice ratio (I hate places that intentionally inflate the rice portion). Tuna Kimbap (3.5/5) - $9 - The tuna kimbap is my choice pick so far. The creamy, fishy flavor of the tuna works well with the pickled radish and fresh veggies. Spam and fish cake kimbap (3/5) - $7 - The saltiness of the spam pairs nicely with the sweet fish cake, tangy pickled radish, egg omlette, and greens. Bulgogi kimbap (2/5) - $10 - This kimbap is a bit pricier than the others, and it's not worth it in my opinion. I couldn't really taste much of the bulgogi, which was disappointing. The marinated, sweet, soy flavor needs to come through more. Garlic soy sauce chicken (4/5) - 12 pieces for $19 - This is one of their more fantastic items. The outside is light but beautifully crunchy with that tasty sauce glazed over it. There was a nice amount of juicy chicken meat too. Very enjoyable! read more

Our go to place for homemade Korean flavors. We often get their kimbap and ddukbokki. We also recently got their frozen kimchee mandoo and I think it's my fave frozen mandoo now. Their Korean porridges are also very good. Can't really complain about anything here. Service is always stellar. Food is fresh and well made with care. read more

Cute little Korean grocery and gim bap place. Lots of choices of fresh made Korean side dishes. We ordered tuna and beef gim bap, fried chicken as well as some side dishes. All fresh and good quality food. It was pretty busy with customers coming in consistently. We had to wait 20 min for the fried chicken but it was worth it. We will be back. read more

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

Oh mama kitchen has been my staple for those busy days when I need a solid Korean food to count on. Their food is always high quality and consistently delicious. They care about what they present and how they serve you as a customer. I sometimes pick up the veggies (na-mool) to whip up a quick bibimbap at home, their 젓갈 never disappoints, their korean pancakes (all sorts of them) are always consistently yummy, and other side dishes are a hit for my little kids too. They are a bit pricier but quality over quantity and the fact that I can always count on their flavors makes their food totally worth it. Such a nice lady (owner maybe?) who always is kind and helpful make the visit extra special. Plenty of parking and be sure to try their sik hye and soo jung gua drinks! read more

Driving through the LA area, I went off the beaten path for a quick stop here with hopes to grab some good banchan to take home to NoCal. I was not disappointed. It's a small little shop in what looks like a little business park. Upon entry, there was a shelf for gimbal and a large refrigerator full of banchan. YOM! Best Gimbap ever! Little rice full of stuffing! They had delicious little seafood and veggie pancakes, too. I picked up delicious radish and some sort of greens I didn't know, along with some soybean. This was worth the extra mileage it took to get here. I'm coming again, especially for the gimbap! Kamsamnida! read more

I wanted to give this place a try because of tiktok. When I walked in, I see these two ladies, one older and younger (about late 20s) sitting down. They didn't acknowledge me but I didn't mind at first so I just looked around. Then this older lady comes in, they said "Hello" to her in Korean (I recognized from shows but I don't speak Korean & I'm not Korean). So I was like, okay they didn't acknowledge me because of language barrier. It's fine. The younger lady was SO nice to that Korean lady and they were talking. THEN when it was my turn to pay, she didn't even say anything to me. She just grabbed my stuff and put it in the bag. I wanted to order wings and all she said was "it will be 10 mins " She sounded very fluent in English so I became a little annoyed to think that she didn't acknowledge me because of language barrier. I said it's fine I can wait. I paid and she didn't say anything else to me. She just walked away. All the other Korean customers that walked in after me, she was soooo nice to and was saying thank you and everything. I don't know what I did to her. I would've walked away but I was really hungry and my bf requested their wings. I spent about $60 for the shitty service and food was mid too. You can get better food at other authentic Korean places that treat non Koreans better. I was so sad about my experience with this place. read more

FYI, this place was not easy to find because... MAPS says its left but its actually right (lol depending on your direction) anyways all to say.. FIND IT, ITS WORTH IT!! Obviously during this COVID-19 time I've been binge watching Kdramas like "Crash Landing on You" & "Itewon Class" so what does that mean? I need myself some fried chicken! This place has delicious & juicy chicken, yummy fish cake soup, and good spicy duk. I like how everything taste fresh, made fresh, & they have tons of other little knickknacks for you to buy- drinks, soup, side dishes, kimbap, etc. WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT THIS PLACE DURING COVID-19 is... they take social distancing and safety next level- which I love. -wait outside if there is a customer inside -all employees have a mask -all employees have gloves -when they give you your stuff it is as a distance ALL TO SAY: THEY CARE ABOUT YOUR SAFETY and take this COVID-19 pandemic seriously. I really appreciate it because they are being "loving and kind to their neighbors". Just super sad that they are closed until April 26th for the time being, but I understand and will definitely be back when they reopen. I support business that care about their standards and do their best for their customers! read more

Oh Mama Kitchen - One of everything on the menu! SO GOOD. I got half sweet garlic and half plain, but I think I will do all sweet garlic next time. - Korean Near Me - La Mirada, California

This place is clean, tidy, and organized and the food is definitely reminiscent of home cooking -- no mass produced food vibes here. Portions are great for quick on-the-go bites. The variety they offer here from kimbap to side dishes is quite astounding considering it's such a small spot. Also, the prices are pretty fair in my opinion. (There have been zero issues with communication or rudeness on my visits, but I'm also not one to impose my cultural or language preferences on people of different ethnic backgrounds.) read more

I bought a thing of glass noodles. It was a little under 10 bucks. Thought it was a little over priced for what looked like a small 3x4 container. It was so much noodles! It lasted for two dinners. The taste is 100% homemade by your fav auntie. I saw Korean lady after Korean lady come in and out with food from here. I knew it was legit. Also got rice cakes and it tasted like Korea. So yummy. read more

Their keto kimbap (kimbap with no rice) is simply outstanding! Each ingredient bursts with freshness, and the fact that it's made to order elevates the experience even more. The side dishes are perfectly balanced, not overly salty, and surpass the offerings of many restaurants in LA. The friendly service adds to the overall welcoming atmosphere. Although the store is small, it's impeccably clean, and the grab-and-go setup works flawlessly. I find myself visiting this place at least once a week. It's a real time and money-saver, as I can cook a single main dish and pair it with a variety of side dishes to create a wholesome and healthy meal. Plus, most of the side dishes stay fresh for 7-10 days in the refrigerator, making it even more convenient. I can mix and match different options, grill some meat, cook some rice at home, and voilà - a nutritious meal is ready to enjoy! read more

Great food to go place. I always come here when I'm craving for some korean chicken wings.

Oh Mama!! My new bonchon place. Everything taste great and best of all made fresh. We spent $60 on garlic soy chicken wings $19, California Rolls $8, vegetarian roll $10, Mochi $6, sweet rice drink $3.50, potato salad $8, and fish cakes $8. The service was great too. It was our first time and the girl with the purple hair did a great job explaining the food to us. The only thing I did not like was the $0.50 credit card service charge. Tip: call in your chicken order because they make it fresh to order and takes about 15 to 20 mins depending how busy they are. read more

Had to checkout this banchan (Korean side dishes) place after reading so many rave reviews, and am very glad I did so. Upon entering, you'll notice a group of Korean ladies gathered in the open kitchen area working on various side dishes. Curious if they intentionally took the Walmart approach of employing highly dedicated "elder (50+)" workforce, nevertheless, the dishes deliver satisfyingly authentic taste (neither too strong nor salty like those sold at most K supermarkets) as if your Korean mom, grandma or auntie has prepared. Would highly recommend! read more

Food: Best kimbaps in town! Everything here is a bit pricier however the quality and taste is there. I got so sick of trying different brands of kimbaps at the Korean markets that are tasteless and dry that i searched on Yelp and found this place. My favorite is the gobo and anchovy but they are all good especially cuz it has the perilla leaf in it which is my fav. Service: Everyone is nice and helpful but the cashier younger girl needs to be friendly. She doesn't say hi, bye, or thank you and when you ask her a question she seems bothered. read more

3.5 Stars - ATMOSPHERE Tiny spot in a weird strip mall. The outside looks very corporate. So it was kinda weird to find this restaurant here. The inside is cute and cozy though. I'm assuming there was indoor seating pre-covid, but now it's take-out only. CUSTOMER SERVICE Like most asian restaurants or shops, customer service is subpar. Nobody greeted us or even helped us for that matter. FOOD We got several items. I've been wanting to try this place for awhile, so I wanted to try a bunch of stuff. BULGOGI KIMBAP was eh. It needed some type of sauce or something. It was pretty dry. It's saving grace was the picked radish. But, the roll itself was pretty mediocre. CHICKEN WINGS w/ SAUCE: the batter was nice and light and the chicken was cooked well. Some of the wings were soggy, which is not common with Korean wings, so it was a disappointment. But, the flavor of the wings was good. Very tender, juicy, and flavorful wings. CRAB CAKES: Super dry. Again, it would've been nice to have some type of sauce or something. The flavor reminded me of imitation crab salad. Except this one was lightly battered and fried. Not something I'd buy again. PORK PATTY (or something): This was pretty good. Dry, like everything else we had, but flavor was good. POTATO SALAD: I was looking forward to this, but was pretty disappointed. It wasn't horrible, but flavors were pretty one note. I've definitely had better. FISH CAKE: This was okay. Again, I've had better. - OVERALL All in all, I don't think I'd revisit the place. All of the food is pre-packaged except the wings, so it's like shopping at H-Mart or something. Sorta weird. read more

This place... if I didn't live 45 min away I would be here everyday. It's AMAZING!! Between 2 people I ordered 4 items, and we could finish it, absolutely stuffed.

We ended up fighting over the rice cakes because of how good they were... perfect amount of spice and sweet! Definitely will be back! read more
