It's been a long time since I've waited for a half hour to eat dinner at a restaurant. But after tasting the food, I can see why. Their food is fantastic. We ordered the galbi, pork cutlets, and bibimbap and enjoyed all 3. Their fish cake and purple rice were my favorite sides. The pork cutlet was my favorite dish. The sauce gave me a "Ratatouille moment." I couldn't quite put my finger on what the tast reminded me of. I will definitely come back to this dish again and again. I'd also like to try one of their tofu soups next time. I didn't like BCD tofu house when I tried it years ago so I didn't want to risk another bad experience but they didn't miss with any of their dishes or sides so I trust them here. The turnaround for tables is fast, all things considered. You can tell it's popular and the staff hustle to make sure tables are cleared and cleaned up in a timely manner. I also like their metal bowls. They kept food, the rice in particular, warm for a long time. The one negative I have is that there's low reception in the parking lot if you have Verizon. read more

A Hidden Gem for Korean Tofu Lovers! We have been searching for a new tofu restaurant to try and came across Tofu Chon in Ontario after seeing its excellent Yelp reviews and ratings. Needless to say, we were excited to check it out, and it did not disappoint! The restaurant is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking, which is always a plus. The dining room is relatively small, with seating for about 40 guests, but we arrived at the perfect time and were seated right away with no wait. By the time we left, the place was getting busy, especially after 7 PM, and we noticed a steady stream of pickup orders. The service was fantastic. Our server was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. She brought out an assortment of banchan, including kimchi and pickled cucumbers, and they were all delicious. The banchan alone set a great tone for the meal. We ordered two combo dishes: * Galbi + Soon Tofu Combo (Beef) * Bibimbap + Soon Tofu Combo (Oyster) The oyster soon tofu was the standout for me. It was packed with flavor, had just the right amount of spice, and struck a perfect balance without being overpowering. Absolutely comforting and satisfying. The bibimbap was good and served with purple rice, but it wasn't my favorite style since it was served at room temperature. Personally, I prefer the crispy rice and sizzling experience of a Dolsot (stone pot) bibimbap. That said, the meat was well-seasoned and tasty. The galbi was excellent. It was tender, flavorful, and marinated beautifully. Every bite was packed with that sweet and savory Korean BBQ goodness. Overall, we had a wonderful dining experience and are already planning to return to try more items on the menu. If you're a fan of Korean cuisine, especially soon tofu, this place is definitely worth a visit. Tip: Arrive before 7 PM if you want to avoid the rush! Highly recommended for fellow foodies looking for authentic, comforting Korean food in the Ontario area. read more

Overall, this place was pretty solid, but I thought it was a little overpriced for what you get. The banchan was decent, but nothing memorable. I've definitely had better, and compared to U Grill, I think you get more value there--more options, better flavors, and a more satisfying overall experience. One thing I did like was the kiosk ordering system. It was simple, quick, and made ordering easy, although there's very little interaction with the staff if that's something you prefer. Solid, but not sure I would be back. read more

A fantastic soondubu restaurant, which I didn't expect would be so close to me! Located in Ontario, Tofu Chon is a fantastic Korean tofu restaurant, that gets quite filled during meal times. Parking is a cinch, but would be difficult during lunch and dinner hours. My fiancé and I arrived around 3 pm on a Thursday afternoon, and we were seated immediately. They have tablets at each table to make ordering easy. They mainly have combo meals (protein + a tofu soup), a few main meals, and drinks. They did not have any appetizers, so come hungry to finish actual plates! I had ordered their rice wine (makgeolli) and a combo: purple rice with beef tofu soup and galbi. It didn't take long for our rice wine to come out and we were ecstatic!! It's not often that many restaurants service their makgeolli with the proper drinking bowls. We drank our rice wine while enjoying their side dishes: beansprouts, kimchi, fish cake, cucumbers, and garlic green leaves. The kimchi was in the sweeter side which was great. Their garlic green leaves truly stood out though! Shortly after, our food came out. To my disappointment, we did not receive purple rice as ordered. Yet, when I started tasting their beef soup and galbi, I absolutely didn't mind that my order with very slightly wrong. Their food was amazing and truly was worth every bite. Galbi was very tender and marinated well. Their beef tofu soup was hearty and warm. It reminded me of a nice hug. We stayed a bit to finish our rice wine. By the time we were at the end of our bottle, it was a full house for the start of dinner. The staff here were quick to seat, very patient with every patron, and were very tidy with the tables. The restaurant itself was very comforting and clean. I am absolutely coming back when I crave more tofu soup! read more

This is more of a high 3.5-low 4 out of 5. Good! We came pretty late around 8:30pm and checked if they were still accepting customers, they were. Each table has an iPad set up to take orders which was perfect because we ordered very quickly after being seated. I liked their simple but varied menu, that is probably why our food came out relatively fast. Great. We were hungry. They shut off iPads around 8:52pm without notifying last call, just fyi. Vibes were homey. Space was a bit tight trying to squeeze past tables to get to our seat in the back corner, but it wasn't grimey just maybe not a location for large parties or lots of rowdy children. Banchan: bean sprouts, spinach, cabbage kimchi, fishcake, cucumber. These were decent. The fishcake, bean sprouts and spinach were simple but tasty. The cabbage kimchi had too much fish sauce. The cucumber still had a good crunch, lightly seasoned. We ordered the spicy marinated pork and seafood tofu soup combo along with the spicy cold noodles. Spicy marinated pork was so flavorful. Best dish of the night. The portion was pretty small though even for a combo order. Crisp of the raw onions, the marinade on the pork was perfect. Delicious with the purple rice that we selected as part of the combo. The seafood tofu soup was tasty as well, the seafood flavor was not too overpowering. There was 1 large shelled shrimp, a couple baby shrimps, and a few clams. Minimal but at least the flavor was good. Great offset to the cold noodles we ordered. The spicy cold noodles were just okay. We did not enjoy the slices of meat that came with it. We are very familiar with cold noodles and eat it often, the meat just did not taste good here. The noodles had a good chew, a bit too much gochugaru pepper flakes - we understand we ordered the spicy cold noodle but the pepper flakes here were more than necessary because then that was mainly what we tasted. Adding the vinegar (clear bottle) and mustard (yellow bottle) helped add some more flavor, we usually add it to our cold noodles. Overall this will probably be our go-to tofu soup/cold noodle spot if we find ourselves in Ontario, good options are pretty limited out there. read more

I was really craving something hearty when my boyfriend picked me up from the airport, and this place happened to be nearby! It's a small shop, although you order from an iPad so it's all relatively quick. We ordered the bibimbap combo & galbi combo, which took a bit long to come out. The soups were delicious and hearty, a great taste after being stuck in the South all week. Salty, but went well with the side dishes. The bibimbap was average, but the galbi was definitely one of my favorites out of the Korean places that I go to, which are a lot. It has grill marks and were freshly hot, although the portion was on the smaller side even though it was a combo deal. A good spot to go to if you're craving Korean near Ontario, I would definitely stop by again! read more

3 of us came in on a Saturday evening around 5:30pm. it's next door to dollar tree with a huge parking lot in front. There're still a few tables open. as we ordered and ate until we finished, people are coming in to fill up the place by 6:10. menu is electronic pad on the table with clear photos. server is very friendly and helpful and clarified menu items for us. the 2 servers spoke English, mandarin, Korean and Spanish. they did tell us the owner is Korean but realize there are large population of mixed race patrons so they hired multi-language servers (which I thought was very smart). we ordered 2 soondubu+beef ribs combos. 1 soondobu is with beef/pork/intestine, 1 with oysters. each combo is $32.99. the banchan side dishes (5) came immediately after we placed the order, which is great bc we love snacking on these side dishes while waiting for our food to be served. Many Korean restaurants don't serve the banchan until the order is served (probably to save refills?!), we always had to ask for them early and get frowned at. the tofu soup also came very quickly, followed by the ribs. all are very flavorful. the rib dish is on the small side, only 5 slices. but the soups are same size as other restaurants. they do offer 1 free drink for Google or Yelp review, but the sign did not ask for 5 stars. so personally I think it's fair. overall, I think the service, the ambience and the food were really good and worth the trip. price is a little higher than what I'd like to pay, especially considering the ribs portion are smaller than expected. the whole dinner lasted about 30min, shows how fast the food was served. We will come back to try their cold noodle soups and other dishes. read more

What a blessing that Tofu Chon has come to Ontario! There's a lot of great Korean food out here but Tofu Chon really brought Ktown to the Inland Empire! I've been here twice now and each visit the food is always consistently delicious and the staff is always friendly and very efficient. I do love that they allow you to order from the iPads, they have really awesome meal sets with a variety of options. The first time I went, I ordered the bibimbap with tofu stew and my partner got the galbi and tofu stew set. Banchan is solid, the stew is really good, but what stood out to me was actually their bibimbap! I haven't had such a savory, flavorful bibimbap in a long time! It's usually very earthy and lighter on flavor, but with their bibimbap, there's almost a different flavor with each bite. It's enhanced by their bibimbap sauce available too! The second time I came, I noticed they expanded their menu and I ordered their newly added cold noodles and soy marinated crab to share with my friends (forgot to take photos because we were hungry). The cold noodles were refreshing with just amount of vinegar and a nice chew to the noodles. Their soy marinated crab was more affordable than when I order them in LA, and they were fresh and perfectly salty with the rice it comes with. They are generous with their portions and very authentic. My visits on a weekend or weekday so far have not had a wait. Tofu chon is our favorite spot for Korean food in the IE that we've tried so far, we look forward to coming back! read more

Went in around 11:32 AM and the place was already 75% full. Anyone coming in after 11:35 had to wait, and there were only two people serving the entire restaurant. Ordering is done through a digital tablet, which was actually pretty convenient, but the food still took about 30 minutes to come out. The banchan felt more catered toward American tastes than traditional Korean flavors. The kimchi and cucumber especially were sweeter than it should be. I ordered the extra spicy soon dubu, but honestly think it's more like medium spicy compared to most Korean spots in Ktown or Rowland Heights. Look at the image of the soup in my review, you'll be able to tell. However, the bigger issue for me was the broth itself. It tasted diluted and lacked the umami depth you expect from a good soon dubu. The color was there, but the body and richness weren't. The galbi was decent and probably the highlight of the meal. Flavor was good overall, though slightly on the sweeter side. What surprised me was that it came out on a hot plate that wasn't even sizzling, which kind of takes away from the experience. Overall, I'd say they're slightly better than BCD in ktown, but definitely not the best soon dubu I've had in SoCal. Giving it 3/5 mainly because the galbi saved the meal. read more

Sides came as soon as we sat down, and they were super quick to refill them as well. The kimchi was super fresh and tasty. I like how they offer hot tea too The seafood soup came piping hot and was super delicious. Very thick and hearty. The best tofu soup I've had in the IE for sure. read more

The food was good, and it definitely had that authentic Korean taste. Although, the sauce on the seafood pancake seemed to have a bit of a Chinese flavor to it. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it was still good. I was a little surprised to hear the staff speaking Chinese, though maybe that makes sense since we live in such a heavily Chinese-populated area. The japchae was pretty salty, so I would want to try it again soon to see if that's just how they always make it. read more

This is my favorite spot in the area for tofu soup! The food is delicious and comforting, and I also love the variety of banchan that comes with the meal. It can get pretty busy during peak lunch and dinner hours now, but if you go a little earlier or later, you'll be seated quickly and the food comes out fast. The service is quick and the interior is clean and modern. If you're craving tofu soup, bulgogi, or any other Korean dish, this place is a must-visit! read more

This place is a recommended area for Tofu House hunt in Ontario. Place is quite small, but the turnover is quite high quick. We came in during lunch on Sunday. The wait not bad as we were number 3 and waited about 10 minutes. Once seated we were straight ordering through installed tablet to order by ourselves. Ban Chan was served quick and soon after the hot plate and last was the tofu soup (served with raw egg). The only thing I noticed if the bulgogi's hot plate has so much oil at the bottom which I didn't see at other Korean's resto. All staffs were great, friendly and work efficiently. read more

You know how it's like when you're hungry and you're on a mission? When you check Yelp and all the restaurant listings start calling your name? We made our way over to Tofu Chon in Ontario because the photos were making us drool. The place felt immediately authentic: Korean staff hustling between tables, cozy close-quarter seating, conversations bouncing around the room. Clean, simple, no nonsense. We slipped in right before the rush... which turned out to be a very good life decision because ten minutes later the place was packed! The banchan came out first. All those delectable pickled and petite-sized plates, perfect for ravenous parents and their hungry offspring. Ethan scarfed down the fish cakes like candy. They also had little menu screens at the table which were genius. Tap, order, food appears. Efficient, modern, slightly dangerous when you're already hungry. Soooooo then the soon beef soup arrived. Y'all...Y'ALL. This was not the polite little soondubu soup I thought I knew. This was a bubbling clay pot of flavor...a soulful beefy broth with some silky tofu and freshly-cracked yokey egg. I took one bite and stared at Jordan like, What IS this magic? Yes, my eyes rolled back. It had layers. Depth. Magic in a freakin bowl. Meanwhile Jordan ordered a heaping pile of some ridiculously tender, smoky ribs that disappeared faster than my daughter's patience waiting for the rice to cool. And speaking of rice, Lea ate bowl after heaping bowl of the perfectly-cooked stuff with a little bit of beef, a little bit of fish, a little bit of satisfaction smeared all over her face. Then there was the fried yellow croaker. The first bite basically short-circuited my brain. Crispy, delicate, salty. I couldn't stop stuffing my face. I loved it so much we ordered three more...just for me. If you're mathing that correctly-- I literally ate FOUR FISH. FOUR!!! I never looked back. No regrets. My only complaint? I ran out of stomach before I ran out of curiosity. There were so many things on that menu I wanted to try, but my belly was waving a tiny white flag. Homestyle Korean cooking, a packed table of happy eaters, and a soup that rewired my expectations. Holy soup gods. That was biblical meal! read more

Came here with some friends to split some galbijjim and soondubu. It was deliciousssss. The meat on the galbijim is so tender. I would have liked the cheese to have been torched a bit but it's cool. Prices are fairly reasonable. You can order on the tablet for convenience. Will definitely need to come back and try the crab. Service is nothing to write home about but they're friendly. The restaurant itself is small so come early if you can! read more

Service was friendly, and overall we had a great dinner. We'll definitely be back! read more

Best soondubu I've ever had. This establishment seems to have a primary offering of a tofu soup and protein (galbi, bulgogi, etc) however I only ordered the soondubu. The flavor is so deep and layered, with a generous serving of tofu and the mix of your choice (beef, seafood, intestine, etc). The banchan is equally generous and delicious. Upon seating you are given an option of hot tea or water. Food is ordered on a tablet, with quick and friendly service delivering it to your table. A must-stop anytime I find myself in Ontario. read more

One of the best tofu soup restaurants I've tried! The tofu soup was rich, flavorful, and packed with ingredients. The portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh. What really stood out was their beef intestine tofu soup, which is hard to find at other places. The beef intestine was tender, well-seasoned, and paired perfectly with the soup. The grilled beef ribs were also delicious and full of flavor. Great food, great value, and definitely worth coming back for. Highly recommend! read more

HANDS DOWN WONDERFUL! Stopped in for some lunch as a first time customer. This place had me feeling the "love at first sight" - food edition drama. There was so much to love about this place aside from the food alone. It is obvious that the owners and workers care about this restaurant, because the inside is clean, tidy, organized, and welcoming. Moreover, prompt friendly service was given to although there is a self-serve order system at each table. After ordering, the food was out in less than 10 minutes along with all the sides - something similar to what you'd find when dining at a KBBQ restaurant. It was not only the main dish that stole my heart, but also all the sides as they were fresh and plentiful. I could come here to dine on the sides alone and be absolutely satisfied. Everything was just that good!!! This is my new Korean restaurant go to! I can't wait to go again! read more

Tofu Chon - Pork Bibimbap! AMAZING! - Korean Near Me - Ontario, California

This is probably the best and my favorite Korean restaurant in the area. ATMOSPHERE: Typical small Korean restaurant that is clean with tablets to order at each table. Each table seats maybe 4 people? It is a small restaurant, so not ideal for large groups. Don't be that party that has a huge group there, or you'll probably get the side eye from the other parties. FOOD: This is a Korean tofu house, so it has your typical entrees. I personally love their kalbi short rib, katsu with cheese (their dipping sauce is absolute heaven), and their spicy squid. The banchan was good, but it was limited items (like 4-5?). It was pretty basic, but still did the job. The price was reasonably average. SERVICE: Quick and easy. You do order on the tablet, which can be a pro or a con. The workers are pretty fast and quick at their job. Food arrived out in a timely manner. PARKING: Free and easy in a large parking lot shared with Dollar Tree. Don't worry, you won't be hussling and tussling over prime real estate parking spot. TDLR- Good Korean food in a small restaurant. Not ideal for large groups. Would I come back? Duh, obvi-- yes. Turn Ons: - Good Korean food in the area-- probably the best IMO - Easy parking - Fast service Turn OFFs: - it's a small restaurant, so not ideal for large gathering/groups read more

Tofu Chon - katsu, spicy pork, and kalbi short ribs! Yum! - Korean Near Me - Ontario, California

Looking for quality and delicious Korean dishes in the Inland Empire but not wanting to drive all the way down to OC or like the Rowland Heights area? You have to go here! I honestly think the IE doesn't have that many Korean spots in general, and this spot has been slept on for many years as I lived so close to this for many years but never bothered to go until recently. Their menu is small, basic, but that's why it's great. We always get their beef soon dubu and galbi. While the pricing is quite high if I had to say, the pricing overall is typical of a Korean restaurant and when it comes to comparing this to OC locations, it's on par for price and quality, if not maybe even better. It does get crowded on weekday nights, and I would imagine the weekends are worse, so definitely come before like 5 or after 8 unless you want to wait. read more

The banchan was so delicious, the tofu soup was very flavorful, and the service was good. I'd totally go back if I were in the area again! I ordered the oyster tofu soup spicy, next time I'd probably get medium. read more

I'm so baffled i haven't made a review for this place because i rave about it all the time. I always find places when i move out of the vicinity lol Tofu chon is not talked about enough, so here i am to talk about it. This place is honestly in such a shit spot, i have to say it lol but the food is great so it's worth the drive. The location is kinda small for the amount of people they can get during the weekend but they're pretty quick with the service. If you're coming here because you want variety, I would not come here. But if you're coming because you're craving good Korean food, yes please come! Their seafood pancake and a tofu soup are a must, literally tofu is in their name.. you have to! Their cold noodle soup is great on summer days, or in general if you like cold stuff during the winter, Who am i to toot your horn. The galbi tang is great and has a nice broth, like most Korean spots. Their meat is good, i normally go for their galbi or chicken. What i love about this place is their Togo for banchan is a little 4 slot container and it just makes it feel more legit. The banchan is obviously a 10/10 and they don't skimp. You just have to come out and try it. I haven't had anything here that's made me regret it, but I've def regretted not getting a tofu soup.. seriously they're great get one lol but overall solid spot, 10/10 for Ontario area. read more

Came here specifically because I wanted cold noodles (bibim-naengmyeon). First of all, the portion is deceptively large. I'm a big boy and I could barely finish the bowl. Secondly, Iove how the soup is actually freezing cold with slush. Some places I've gone to the soup has only been chilled - I want it arctic, and this place fulfills that need. Also got the bulgolgi, which was really delicious. I like that the flavor was more delicate and not drowned in soy. Tasted closer to legit bulgolgi. Banchan was also all delicious and they were not stingy with refilling. Ordering is done on iPads, which I LOVE. Food comes out quick and service is pretty attentive, for an Asian spot. There were so many other dishes I wanted to try, especially the tofu, so really looking forward to coming back. read more

Overall: incredible place! Little hole in the wall in a strip mall, but man does this place have big flavors and great staff! Pros: - side dishes are great - rice comes with your dishes, purple rice was good! - get to order from your table on a tablet - staff is attentive and very quick - food comes out really fast Cons: - very expensive, especially for the amount of galbi you get. The meat portions are very small. Although it's expensive, it is worth the try! I would come back every once in a while. You can definitely pay less for AYCE KBBQ. read more

After a 14-hour shift, this place absolutely hit the spot and recharged my soul. The cucumber kimchi was so fresh and flavorful, and the food was perfectly filling. I ordered the spicy beef tofu soup--it was rich, hot, and packed with plenty of meat. The atmosphere is cozy and comforting, and the service was excellent. Big compliments to the chef! If you're like me--tired, craving some good soup and a cold beer--come here to unwind. Watch a few funny videos, enjoy a solo date, and let yourself recharge. The staff were so kind, and I honestly can't stop talking about how good the food was. Highly recommend! read more

I was in the area visiting my relatives and when it came to dinner time, we found this place on yelp. Tofu chon is located in the plaza with plenty of parking. As we pulled up, we saw people standing outside waiting and we took it as a good sign. We put our name on the waitlist and luckily got seated quickly. The restaurant is not very big but clean. I got the tofu soup combo with Galbi, and my aunt and uncle got the tofu soups. My uncle is low key vegetarian but there was no vegetarian tofu soup option so he got the seafood instead. The soups were nice and flavorful, but not quite the same as the traditional Korean Soontobu. I can't put my finger on what was different. it just was, but still yummy tho. I got about 6-7 pieces of Galbi with my combo. Service was fine. They were busy, so we had to flag the servers down for refills and the check. Overall a nice meal option in the area. read more

Walked in on a Friday afternoon to a relaxed, unhurried dining room -- only three other parties, so no wait and plenty of breathing room. Ordering is done on an iPad mounted right at your table, which makes the whole process smooth and painless. Our food was out in under 10 minutes. Genuinely impressive. We ordered the deep-fried yellow croaker combo and the arkshell meat bibimbap combo. Both were outstanding. The croaker was fried to perfection -- crispy outside, tender and moist inside, not a hint of dryness. The arkshell in the bibimbap was deeply flavorful without being overpowering or salty. What really stood out was the generosity with proteins across the board: substantial arkshell meat in the bibimbap, a solid pour of oysters in my partner's tofu soup, and beef in mine. This kitchen doesn't skimp. Our server was warm and friendly -- exactly the kind of energy that makes a meal feel complete. This place just became our go-to Korean spot. Great food, lightning-fast service, NO BS. We're already planning a return visit to work through the rest of the menu. read more

I am so happy there are better food options in the IE now, and Tofu Chon exceeds my expectations. I came on a Friday during dinner and it wasn't too busy. There is plenty of parking and the service is friendly and quick. I also like that you can order your food on a screen - the food came out so fast! It was a HOT one that day so naturally I was craving cold noodles. I like that Tofu Chon offers the spicy variation because I know some places don't have that option. My goodness - the spicy cold noods hit the MF spot. It was so refreshing and filling. The assorted banchan that came out also happens to be all of my faves and they were delish. As I'm writing this review, I want to return this week to try more dishes - it's so good and hands down my go-to place now. read more

Came here after an event and the place was completely full. Not sure if it's always like this or just because of the event but this place seems to be really busy. Including my bf and I there was 10 people waiting outside for seats. I came here to see if the ratings really were as good as the food. They said the wait would be about 15 mins but it was really around 30 or more. When we finally sat down, the side dishes came out pretty quickly. Side dishes were good and comparable to other Korean places. However the kimchi pork tofu I ordered was S tier. I love how the tofu stays hot way longer than other tofu places I've tried it seems. Delicious and full of flavor. Def worth coming here but it would be even better if it wasn't so busy read more
