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

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

Really happy we came across this place! The banchan was so good -- definitely one of my favorite parts of the meal. We ordered the galbi and tofu soup combo and the beef bibimbap, and both were really satisfying. I also liked that each table has a digital ordering pad, which made things easy and convenient. Service was friendly, and overall we had a great dinner. We'll definitely be back! 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

Randomly searched spicy tofu soup near Ontario airport and found this place. Tofu chon has authentic Korean spicy tofu soup that is easily ordered at the table with a tablet and delivered with care by staff. I was really impressed with the combo deals tofu chon offers. From fish to Korean ribs mmm so many choice combinations. Banchan was exactly what you'd expect from a tofu soup house. Definitely recommend for a good authentic Korean spicy tofu soup!! 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

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

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

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

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

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

Don't let the strip mall location fool you Tofu Chon is a hidden gem in Ontario. From the outside it's nothing special, but inside it's spotless and the service is quick and efficient. I loved the touch screen ordering right at the table and is super easy and convenient. They serve all the classic side dishes, and the fact that side fixings is all-you-can-eat is a huge plus. Portions are generous and perfect for sharing, and everything is very reasonably priced. This was my second visit and it definitely didn't disappoint. I'll be back again. read more

Second time here and it did not disappoint. Ordered 2 full size seafood tofu, one full size bulgogi and one tofu bulgogi combo to feed 4 adults and two kids which was the perfect amount of food and everything was delicious including all the side dishes (kimchi, cucumbers, spinach, bean sprouts, fish cake) and ended up being $100 plus $20 tip. The servers were bussing hard, pleasant and quick with each request. They also offer complimentary hot tea if you ask. Hope they open more locations with more seating so we could bring larger parties to enjoy their delicious offerings. read more

Idk what the hype is. Maybe the people who left 5 star reviews never had Korean food from LA or even Rowland Heights. The picked cucumbers had no flavor. I am not even Korean but growing up in a Korean city I know what Korean food is and I can make better picked cucumbers. The kimchi tofu soup was too sweet for my liking. The kimchi fried rice lacked flavor and the short ribs are definitely over marinated because it's not that it wasn't tender it was more like shredded once you bit into it. I really wanted to like this place because I'm sick of driving so far just for tofu soup. Sorry but I tried. 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 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

Why did it take me so long to stumble across Tofu Chon?! Don't sleep on this korean joint because it's comforting and authentic. It's located in a plaza and the place isn't too big.

Taste was perfect and authentic. I can't wait to come back! 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

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

Love this place ! So glad we found a local delicious authentic Korean tofu soup place. Has a good amount of seating. Very clean and well lit. Customer service is always amazing every time we come here. Everyone is always attentive and asks if you want refills of any of the side dishes. You order from a tablet on the table and my husband and I always share the chicken bulgolgi and the beef tofu soup just because it is big enough portion for both of us. You get steam rice with it too. The soup always comes out boiling hot. It has a creamy texture and not too salty. There is just the right amount of soft tofu. The bulgogi chicken comes out on a hot skillet with grilled onions and the flavors never disappoint. My husband loves coming to this place all the time! 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

This Korean restaurant is a bit hidden but very close to the airport. The place is very clean, the food is good, and the service is friendly. It does get busy when the restaurant is full, and there may be a bit of a wait--possibly they could use more waitstaff--but it felt like everyone was doing their best. The fish was especially crispy and fresh. The japchae was tasty, though slightly oily. The bulgogi leaned on the sweeter side; it could be a bit less sweet, but it wasn't salty and was still enjoyable. The rice and soup were both good and comforting. Ordering was easy and convenient since everything is done through an iPad at the table. Overall, a solid spot near the airport with good food and a clean, pleasant atmosphere. read more

we ordered the katsu and the beef soondubu, level spicy. the katsu was really good! the perfect crispiness and they used real panko! the sauce they gave on the side is like a traditional korean tonkatsu sauce, kind of like gravy, creamy and also a little tangy. i would say i wish they gave more of it because it was a really small portion for the amount of katsu. the beef soondubu is pretty spicy, like shin ramen level of spice? the broth was really thick and flavorful, but i would say it doesn't really taste like traditional soondubu. it's really sweet, and kind of reminded of tteokbokki sauce, kind of gochujang base flavor. its not bad, but it kind of missed the mark for me. another thing, the restaurant was emptying as we walked in, maybe like 2-3 tables when we sat down. but we still didn't receive side dishes or even water until we asked, even after receiving our katsu. the workers walked around asking other tables if they needed more side dishes or water and kind of walked around our table. we were lost as to why this was happening but we shrugged it off and ate our katsu, but then 20 minutes went by and we still didn't receive our soondubu. we would understand if the restaurant was busy but at this point it was us and another table. we eventually let our waitress know, and it seems they forgot. they gave us the soondubu on the house, which was nice of them! overall, i would come back for the food, and all the side dishes were flavorful and fresh. read more

Here's a glowing, Yelp-style review--enthusiastic Tofu Chon Tofu House is an absolute gem! If you're craving comforting, soul-warming Korean food, this place delivers on every level. The tofu soup (soondubu) is hands down some of the best I've ever had--rich, deeply flavorful broth with perfectly silky tofu that melts in your mouth. Every spoonful is comforting, bold, and incredibly satisfying. The banchan deserves its own shoutout. Fresh, well-seasoned, and generously portioned, each side dish clearly tastes house-made and thoughtfully prepared. They're the kind of banchan you actually get excited about and keep going back for. And then there's the galbi--tender, juicy, and packed with that perfect balance of sweet and savory. Cooked beautifully and bursting with flavor, it pairs perfectly with the soup and sides. You can tell real care goes into the marinades and preparation. Great food, great quality, and a cozy, welcoming vibe make this a must-visit spot. Whether you're a longtime Korean food lover or trying it for the first time, Tofu Chon Tofu House is 100% worth the visit. I'll definitely be coming back again especially since it's the only good place in the IE! read more
