Randomly stopped by Shin Beijing in Koreatown since my friend was craving some Jjamppong. I honestly haven't been here in over a decade, maybe even longer, but gotta say the food still hits and they're alive and well lol. Of course, we got the Black Bean Noodles and Spicy Jjamppong, and both were really good. The Mongolian Beef was definitely my favorite of the day, especially paired with the steamed Chinese bread rolls. That combination was seriously good and something I'd definitely order again. The Yaki Mandu (fried meat dumplings) were another standout. I feel like I haven't had these since I was a kid, so it was nice having them again. We also tried the Sweet & Sour Shrimp, which was good too. Overall, this visit was a nice reminder of how good Shin Beijing still is after all these years. Next time I'm in K-Town craving some Korean-Chinese food, I'll definitely be back!

Shrimp fried rice
jeremiah w.

This place has a cool nice low key vibe. a longtime staple on Olympic Boulevard in Koreatown, specializing in comforting, generous Korean-Chinese fusion cuisine. They have a delicious honey walnut shrimp. Its large, plump shrimp coated in a light, crispy batter and tossed in a sweet, creamy honey-mayo sauce with candied nuts. Their shrimp fried rice is . It is clean, fragrant, and not overly oily. If you order black bean noodles (Jjajangmyeon), saving a spoonful of the dark black bean sauce to mix over this fried rice is a classic way to eat it. The service was very good also.

The food here is good. No complaints on that. I have come here for both lunch and dinner, and we've used their private room for my nephew's first birthday as well as for family members' milestone birthdays. The room is simple but works well for a group. Service has been inconsistent the last few times I've come. Most recently at my dad's birthday dinner we ordered 5 dishes and the dishes came out one at a time, about 10 to 15 minutes apart. By the time the next dish arrived, we were already finishing the previous one. My brothers and I were joking that they must have a new cook that hasn't learned how to time cooking. At a Chinese Korean restaurant, meals are meant to be shared family style, with dishes arriving at the same time so everyone can enjoy them together. That did not happen, and it took away from the experience, especially for a birthday dinner. On a separate lunch visit, the service also felt inattentive. The waitress seemed annoyed when taking our order as well as when I asked for more water and side dishes, which again impacted the overall experience. The food is still the reason to come. But consistent service, proper dish timing, and basic hospitality matter. I've considered giving a three star rating based on the last two experiences, but since I've been coming here for nearly a decade, I'll leave it at four.

This evening (2/8/2026 Sunday) , we picked up sweet and sour pork (tangsuyuk) to go from Shin Beijing and enjoyed it at home. This is a very old, long-established restaurant in LA. I hadn't been there in a long time--I went many years ago, then ordered takeout during the Covid pandemic, and this was my first visit back in quite a while. There's another Chinese restaurant, Yeonkyung, located just across the street, which is famous for its glutinous rice sweet and sour pork. We've gone there more often, so it has been especially long since we last visited Shin Beijing. This restaurant also has private rooms where you can sit separately, and it reminded me that we once held a family birthday party for my father here many years ago. Today, we ordered the sweet and sour pork to go, and it was so crispy and delicious. Since it had been so long since our last visit, I also noticed they now offer lunch specials, which all looked tasty and well-priced. The staff was very friendly as well, which made the experience even better.

We did our 100 days 백일 here !!! It was so worth it

I thought I already reviewed this place but Yelp wants me to leave a review again. I did go back there feb2026 for a bday party and their food did not disappoint. Yummy food, great service. Mapo tofu was a little more spicier to a before. I did my second daughter's 100 days celebration there nov 2025 and it wasn't that spicy .. maybe it's me ?

Sometimes I just get a craving for Chinese food, and this is one of my go-to places. I like that it's clean, simple, and not overly crowded. The atmosphere is comfortable, and I personally prefer this kind of neat, straightforward style. It's a great spot when you're looking for a relaxed meal.

Delicious Chinese and Korean food! Good portions, staff very attentive! I got the orange chicken and combination fried rice with vegetables. Kimchi was perfect and egg drop soup was great. Valet parking in back.

I went to Shin Beijing for lunch, and it was a solid experience. The interior is spotless, with a modern remodel, new lighting and some private rooms create a nice atmosphere. We started with the mala mapo tofu, and it was fantastic, spicy and numbing with a strong mala kick. Service was quick and attentive, with the staff regularly topping off water. We also tried the stir fried vegetables, which had a bit of a mustard or wasabi like flavor. My family enjoyed it, but it wasn't my favorite. The ttangsyuk, however, was a highlight. The medium portion wasn't huge, but it was still satisfying, with crispy breading and an excellent sauce.

Food: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Ambiance: 5 stars We had dinner here on Saturday and left feeling very satisfied. This wasn't our regular Chinese spot, but we decided to give it a try after reading some positive reviews recently. One thing we appreciated was the option to choose between 'medium' and 'large' portions for most dishes--we went with medium and added an extra dish. Everyone enjoyed the dishes, which were fresh and flavorful. The service was excellent as well.

Lori L.

This is good Korean Chinese food! It is fusion food so it is not authentic Chinese flavors. The crispy pork was very flavorful and crispy. The shredded pork with seafood was unique and included shrimp, sea cucumber scallop and more. They are known for their black bean noodle dish which was savory with onions and a tasty sauce. They also have a Korean seafood soup noodle dish with lots of ingredients inside. The restaurant is clean inside and upscale.

First time visiting Hangari Kalguksu, and overall, a very good experience!…read more The food was delicious, and the portions were HUGE! We ordered two dishes, but the servings were so generous that the two of us could barely finish one bowl of noodles. The restaurant was already packed by 11 AM, which says a lot about its popularity! The atmosphere was lively and welcoming. The only small downside was that the food was a little too salty for my taste. Otherwise, everything was great! Generous portions, tasty Korean comfort food, and a lively atmosphere. Definitely worth trying!

Finally after 3 tries, we got to try Hangari!…read more There is always a long line in Hangari that it is already our 3rd time to go there and finally decided to wait it out and try it! We came on a Saturday evening around 7pm and got seated at around 815pm. We were celebrating our anniversary that weekend and wanted something good for dinner before we had back home from our Yosemite trip so I decided on Hangari as it is always on my Ktown list of must try's. While in line, a staff will take your orders so it'll be a quick wait once you get seated, which is a good system I think. Their Banchans were so good and not your usual you see on a Korean Restaurant. It was my first time trying the watercress kimchi I think? But they Kakkdugi was the best! And they even had quinoa rice which is also good. We ordered Clam Kalguksu, Chicken Kalguksu and Bossam. All were served generously so we were so full and still got some takeouts. The Chicken Kalguksu has richer broth compared to the Clam but both had very good noodles, they're bouncy and chewy you can definitely taste it was freshly made. The Bossam was cooked to perfection, the pork slices were marinated and seasoned perfectly. Def the best Bossam I tried so far! All the staffs were friendly, restrooms are clean, interiors are modern korean vibe, definitely a good spot with friends after a night out in LA. I just hope they can open a little later until midnight, so it'll be a good spot after a concert night! It was definitely a good experience except for the long wait in line.

This is our spot…read more Yuzu Tsuyu Tsukemen is for true ramen lovers. Their warm noodle soups are also cozy and tasty. Don't sleep on the apps, they keep it pretty fresh and new so get the good ones while they're there! Afuri roll, gyoza, any carpaccio or sashimi, tofu, it's all amazing!

We had a mixed experience during our visit. Although the restaurant offers easy, free parking and…read moreplenty of seating, the service fell short of expectations. We initially provided our order to an Asian server, but were later assisted by a different Hispanic/Latina waitress. A male staff member also checked in with a thumbs‑up/thumbs‑down gesture, which felt unclear and added to the overall inconsistency. I generally prefer when servers take orders with a notepad. While many can remember everything perfectly without one, in this case it would have helped -- we never received our water, and the waitress had to reconfirm our meat selection. Small details like that affected the flow of the meal. The food was decent. I would reorder the Yuzu Ratan ($19) and the Basque Cheesecake ($11), as those were the highlights. However, the Mango Margarita ($15) didn't taste like mango at all, and my boyfriend chose not to correct it. Overall, the dishes and drinks were just average. We've been trying to explore neighborhoods outside of our usual Koreatown and Silver Lake spots, so it was disappointing that this experience didn't stand out more. The restaurant does offer reservations, which is convenient, but the service and attention to detail could use improvement.

I was very very pleasantly surprised at how good all the food was! I absolutely love a good Taiwanese breakfast and this place hit it out of the park. The interior is so lovely, it's such a nice place to chill in. They also have a mini market attached to it where you can buy some snacks or some random groceries. Fan tuan: I got the purple rice version, and I thought this dish was so satisfying! It was exactly what I was craving and was better than I hoped it would be :) I grew up eating this from small local restaurants in San Gabriel Valley, I was so happy to find that this reminded me of all of those, but in a more elevated way Traditional porridge set: honestly, a staple in such a good way to start the morning! A simple breakfast done right, I feel like I could always order this and it will never go wrong I also ordered the hot soy milk, which was the cherry on top. I am pretty sure it is from the half gallon. You can buy at the store, but it was still good! This place is in downtown LA so you have to fight for street parking lol I think if you go for breakfast time in the morning like I did, you shouldn't have too much trouble
