    My wife and I have passed by Seoul Time to and from our kid's baseball games so we decided one day to check out the new local spot. In an area dominated by hispanic and other asian food options, we were excited to see a Korean food spot pop up. Especially one that seemingly specializes in street food which I always prefer over a fine dining dish. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior of the restaurant is very warm and inviting. All of the windows and it being situated on the end of the strip mall allows for a lot of natural light to flood in to the dining area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's also small restaurant, but it's also roomy enough that I couldn't imagine it feeling cramped, even if it was full.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There seemed to only be two people working while we were there, but they treated us very well. I believe one of them was the owner. A wonderfully friendly Korean gentleman who helped us decide on what we would try (we ended up trying several of their dishes). He was just lovely and full of good spirit. It really heightened the experience. In all, I wouldn't say the food was mind blowing, but it hit the spot. Everything tasted like they were coming from family recipes over just some cookbook. Portion sizes were good and everything came out hot and fresh. My only 'complaint' (& I put that in quotes because it's not really a complaint) is that they didn't have any corn dogs and I love a Korean corn dog. But hey, that's fine. It forced me to try new things and we walked out of there having had a lovely tasty meal. We will absolutely be back. I will say it's in a small strip mall so parking could be tight. Be prepared to park on the street. But, it'll be worth a quick stroll.

    I was craving some Korean fried chicken and found Seoul time which was close by. I called to order a pick-up of the 16 piece soy garlic wings and fries. The food wasn't ready when I arrived but the owner was very apologetic and nice. It seemed like the owner was the one doing all the cooking and they had a lot of orders. I didn't mind the wait because the owner was very nice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside is cute. It's a small mom and pop shop in the area, that was clean and had an area to pour your own sauces.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The chicken itself was crispy, juicy, and very flavorful. The soy garlic marinate and sauce the wings were covered in was delicious, and the pieces of chicken were quite big. The fries were decent. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try!

    The food in general was so delicious. Definitely recommend and will be coming back for more. The service was amazing and [[HIGHLIGHT]]very clean place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is small but it's worth coming back[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Beef & Chicken Rice Bowl w/ Small Side of Tteokbokki

    I ordered the beef & chicken rice bowl w/ side of small tteokbokki. It tasted like a homemade meal The cook is very pleasent to talk to. It's clear that he is passionate about his food, and treats his customers like family. I wish I was a local so that I could come more often.

    Soy garlic wings
    Chelsea A.

    A super cute Korean restaurant in the valley! Service was really great and quick. We ordered the soy garlic wings with a side of rice. Wings were sweeter than how I usually like them but the quality and crispness of the wings were too good can't go wrong! Popcorn chicken was also a little sweet but still really delicious! Chicken teriyaki had the flavors and was also really good! Can't wait to come back and try more. !!

    I've pass this place quite a few times, I've seen them in a post in instagram,,,, so I asked myself maybe I should try them. And so we went.... Came here with wifey for lunch and I must say our dining experience was pretty good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]At first, we were hesitant to come in coz the place looks boring and dull. Decorations are very simple, so are the menus which are in a standee in the front counter[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. The lady who takes the order doesn't even smile and greet you, lol! But don't be deceived until you order and take the first bite of their food. It was actually pretty darn good! We had the 6 piece garlic soy chicken, the korean beef rice and the tornado potato. Out of the 3, that beef rice was the best! So packed with flavor and very delicious. The beef was so tender, the sweetness and spice was perfect for my palate. Of all the tornado potato i've tried in my life, i think this one stands out. The blend of flavour and spice again was perfect. There's a hint of sweetness too. Now the chicken was little disappointing, yes the flavor is there, the garlic doesn't overpower the blend of sweet soy, the outer coating or breading was crunchy but a little hard and the meat of the chicken if without the sauce and the outer coating was bland. Will I come back here? Yes and would like to try the others. Service here was very quick too.

    Small order of Tteokbokki.
    Cindy M.

    First timer today. This is a review for a pick up to go order. They have a small menu but that means they can concentrate on freshness and quality of their ingredients. We ordered the 6 piece soy garlic wings and they are sticky goodness. Very crispy and not spicy, can't go wrong with these. Then we wanted to try the Tteokbokki it was like eating a spicy gummy worm. This is not a bad thing. It's a fun eating experience. We really enjoyed these along with the cabbage and egg that was in there also. We got the fried dumplings, these were amazing along with the vinegar based dipping sauce. I think this was my favorite of all of the items. Lastly we got a Small Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. A very generous bowl and good. It's basic but perfect if that is what you're in the mood for. I would definitely go back and try the other bowls and flavors of chicken wings. Good food for sure. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small place so take out is advised since they have only three tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also have a do it yourself Raymon bowl. Pick your package of noodles cook it and eat. Fun. The only drawback is the parking this place is in a busy corner strip mall with terrible parking.

    Really nice owner! The food was amazing, everything tasted absolutely divine. Food came out so quickly too! I would recommend the soy glazed chicken, it's a must try :)

Both were very good and tasty especially since it was a very hot day. It was too much food for two people so we took it home. As for side dishes, personally I'm not a fan of pickled things so if you love it then it would be great for you. Service: We were able to take our order while waiting in line so once we actually got seated it felt like it didn't take long to actually eat the food. They were quick and accommodating to requests made. Ambiance: It was nice with music playing while eating. Comfortable dining experience. Parking: It was on a lot that only has valet parking which was $5 cash only. You can do street parking but hard to find since it's downtown area.

The kalguksu portions are especially big, and their side dishes are always great. The restaurant is clean, service is fast, and I love the free rice they give you at the beginning with soybean paste on top. Definitely one of my favorite Korean spots in LA.

The scallop pancake has such an amazing crunch, and paired so well with the slightly sweet and rich mentaiko sauce. My favorite bite was hands down the uni bibimbap. It was so rich and decadent and the sweet shrimp mixed with the creamy uni was an absolute textural dream. I'm devastated it took me this long to try Danbi. I am very pleasantly surprised. It was a cute and vibey restaurant, but be prepared to pay for valet.

    Nice spot if you're looking for Korean food with a modern twist. The interior is modern, sleek, and…read morethoughtfully designed, and the service was friendly and attentive throughout the meal. The food here is definitely more creative than your standard Korean restaurant. A lot of familiar Korean flavors and dishes are presented in a more modern, elevated way. Scallop Pancake -- 7.5/10 Think scallion pancake, but with scallops. I really enjoyed this, especially because they don't skimp on the scallops. My only complaint is that the batter is a little too thick, and combined with how oily it is, the dish gets filling pretty quickly. This is definitely something I'd recommend ordering with a larger group so everyone can have a couple pieces rather than trying to tackle the whole thing. The dipping sauce is chef's kiss. Uni Bibimbap -- 9/10 My favourite dish of the night. All the different ingredients work together incredibly well. Every bite is balanced and flavourful, and honestly, I could probably eat an entire bowl of this myself. Beef Tartare -- 7.5/10 I love beef tartare, and this was no exception. My main complaint is that I found it a little lacking in flavuor compared to some of the tartares and yukhoe I've had at other Korean restaurants. The bone marrow is a cool addition, although I think it contributes more to the presentation and interactive aspect than the actual flavour of the dish. If you don't eat the tartare relatively quickly, the bone marrow starts to solidify and you end up with little pieces of hardened fat, which I found a bit unappealing. Honey Butter Chips -- 5/10 Not bad, but personally I wouldn't order these again. The honey butter sauce started becoming a little too rich and sickening for me after a few chips.

    tl;dr the delectable pork ribs overshadow the otherwise authentic but standard lineup at this…read morenow-shuttered Korean stalwart Los Angeles Koreatown is home to restaurants that specialize in every facet of Korean cuisine. 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.

Even when we ordered the food, the server said "that's it?" as if she was offended that we didn't order more food (lower sales?) I'm not sure if we misunderstood her attitude but that's kind of how it felt like. The quality and size went down and it was just... not good. This used to be my #1 spot for cold noodles but our other fav place was closed today so we decided to come here. As you can see, the size of the cold noodles became smaller. Everything was packed in this small bowl which made it harder to eat. I think they changed the noodles they use because it wasn't doing anything texture wise. It used to be chewy and had a good buckwheat flavor. The broth tasted.. like water with a splash of bone broth. The quality of galbi was also a disappointing as I feel like it's became less and the meat was burnt with more fat/chewy bits. The leek pancake was ok but again, comparing it to my picture from January, it was bigger in size and more dough-y. Service was decent previously but it felt a bit cold today. Again, super bummed because we still love this place but I probably won't be ordering their combo again. You can see in my pictures how often we used to order the cold noodles from here and you can compare the quality.
