Self serve. Hits the spot -- would recommend their naengmyeon. Very friendly and fast service. Hope they get more business.

Yukaejang Soup
Vanessa S.

This is my favorite Korean hidden gem. Iv been coming here since around 2021 and they never disappoint. The customer service is excellent and if you love spicy food they will make it EXTRA spicy per your request. I only order the Yukgaejang soup because it's my favorite Korean soup and after all these years I never change my order. I appreciate the relaxed atmosphere as well. I was able to enjoy my food peacefully. Definitely try this spot out if you're looking for top quality Korean food.

Menu 3.14.25

Review 27/365 challenge 1st timer here for lunch on a Friday afternoon with my mama friend 3.14.25 She's been here a lot of times and recommended it. Was gonna go to Sup Noodles originally next door. How did i ever miss this restaurant. Come to this plaza often especially to SUP Noodles, Piak Noodles & 85 degrees which is located next to it. What we ordered Dolpan bibimbab $ 19.49 Came in a stone pot, How i like my bibambap served. Full of veggies and beef along with rice. The banchans that is served with was diakon & regular Napa kimchi along w steamed bean sprouts Banchan. Highly recommended. Service was fast and received food in a timely manner. You go and order the food & pay 1st. You're given a buzzer to retrieve your food when it's ready. When you're done w your dishes. You bring back the tray along w the bowls to a stainless steel 3 tier shelves next to the fridge with the can drinks/sodas. It's a standard size restaurant. Not too big with outdoor Patio for dining, Lots of parking available. Same plaza as Hmart supermarket.

I mean talk about authentic delicious food! I wanted to get everything off the menu! The cold noodles were delicious and tasty! The dumplings were also delicious! The bulgogi was amazing! You order first and are given a buzzer to let you know when your food is ready! They have tables inside to sit at or you can sit in the common outside area. We decided to sit inside! After you are done, you bring your tray and dishes to the designated area. The bathroom was clean! The staff was friendly! I can't wait to come back!

Galbi Combo with Mul Naengmyeon
Jasmine L.

Been wanting to come to Yuchun for a long time and their Naengmyeon lived up to the hype! The broths of both had great flavor and were so icy and refreshing! Each came with lots of veggies which gave great texture to the dishes!

This place does not compare with LA location. Its very disappointing . No side dishes unless you order something other than cold noodles. No free soup like la location. The noodle was ok. The noodle soup was not good. Lots of msg. Its self serve. Do with what you will with this info. As for me, its a NO. Will not come back

Great customer service and clean restaurant. Highly recommended. Good location and fast service

As others have said, this location does not compare to the one in K Town. To start, the free broth is served to you with your food and not self serve, which is fine, but it was undrinkable. Tasted like a cheap powdery version with little to no flavor. It was really what I was looking forward to, so terribly disappointed. That said, the other dishes we tried were pretty good. Cold noodles and galbi combo was pretty good. They were out of the tofu soup, so tried the spicy beef soup per the lady's recommendation. Soup was good, but the beef was not the shredded type I am used to. Was in small rectangular pieces and very tough. Service was very friendly, but we were the only ones there on a Monday evening around 6pm. Would I go back? Maybe if in the area, but not worth going out of your way IMO.

Is this the same Yuchun from LA?

Is it possible to get low salt dishes here? I have high blood pressure and so much of the korean food is delicious but too salty!

Some of the dishes can be made with less salt and some of them don't have salt. It just depends on which dish you choose.

Do they have the self service hot broth station?

Yes

Is this the same as the Yu Chun in LA?

Yes

Parking is a little weird (half the space in front is handicap/bank parking) so look around if you have to. Usually it's fine though. Food here is great, and it's why I come here! Gyoza is crispy and juicy and hot. Ramen noodles are all unique and more of that handmade vibe. We got the mentaiko ramen and green chili shio ramen. If you want a less fatty broth, then shio is your choice. Savory and creamy? Pretty much anything else. Always a good time here

A few months ago my wife and I wanted to eat at Kitakata Buena Park. We understood there would be a wait. What we could not bear was the strong, revolting smell of sewage wafting through the parking lot just outside the restaurant. The smell had nothing to do with the restaurant. The smell came from a sewer line somewhere in the vicinity of the restaurant. Be that as it may, we left about five minutes into our wait. I knew that waiting any longer for a seat inside the restaurant would result in my wife and I eating our meal with the stench of sewage tainting every slurp and every bite. The problem is a city sewage problem, but Kitakata bears the burden. Please let me know the problem has been addressed by the city and I will return.

Food: We ordered the Galbi-Tang and Sul-Long-Tang, and our food came out pretty quickly. Both soups were really flavorful and comforting, and the broth was definitely the most memorable part of the meal. The banchan on the side was a little weaker compared to some other Korean spots I've been to, but the soups more than made up for it. Parking: They have their own parking lot, which made parking easy when we visited. I really enjoyed the food here and would definitely come back, especially when I'm craving a comforting bowl of soup.

You come here for Korean comfort food, metal dishes of banchan, enormous bowls of soup and stone pots hot enough to continue cooking your dinner while you eat it. And that stone pot is where I'd start. The gondre dolsot bibimbap was fantastic. Gondre is Korean thistle and here it gets worked through the rice with the egg, seaweed and everything else until the whole thing becomes earthy, savory and deeply satisfying. But the best part comes underneath. Leave it alone long enough and the rice against the stone develops that beautiful scorched crust, nurungji, which you eventually scrape loose and mix back through everything. That combination of the greens, sesame, egg and crispy rice is ridiculously good. There are dishes you finish because you're hungry and dishes where you keep digging around the bottom of the bowl because you're convinced there must be another good piece hiding somewhere. This was the latter. The galbitang was more complicated for me. The beef itself was excellent. Generous pieces, tender, falling easily from the bone and soft enough that our kids loved it. Plenty of green onion, too. My issue was the broth. I prefer galbitang on the restrained side so I can decide where it goes from there. Same reason I like seolleongtang arriving almost defiantly plain, give me the broth and let me dress it up myself with salt, saeujeot or whatever else I want. Han Yang has already made those decisions for you. The galbitang broth was noticeably sweet and salty and eventually it became a little much for me. That's preference as much as criticism, plenty of people will probably love it exactly as it arrives. I just wanted the volume turned down. The banchan was similarly mixed but mostly good. The napa kimchi was solid and nicely balanced. The kkakdugi was particularly good. The mustard greens, however, were ferociously sour. I like fermented food. These had me physically wincing. The dipping sauce for the galbi was excellent, though and I kept going back to it. Rice was average and a little dry. It did its job. Service was good and the whole experience was easy. The room itself has some age on it, tables are fairly close together and depending on where you're seated you may find yourself with a commanding view of the bathroom door. Nobody has ever requested the chef's table at the restroom, but here we are. Somehow I don't particularly mind any of it. Han Yang feels like a restaurant that knows what it is. It isn't polished into anonymity. People are here eating giant bowls of soup, mixing rice in scorching stone pots and getting on with their lives. And when a restaurant can put something as good as that gondre bibimbap in front of me, I can forgive a dry bowl of rice and a bathroom with excellent sightlines. Absolutely coming back. And next time, I'm getting that bibimbap again.

The staff greeted every customer who walked in, the dining room felt relaxed without being too casual, and there was a genuine sense that people here cared about what they were serving. The food arrived quickly, but nothing tasted rushed. Each dish had its own personality, and even the simplest items felt thoughtfully prepared. By the end of the meal, I realized this wasn't the kind of place people visit once for the novelty but it is the kind of place they keep coming back to because it simply makes them feel comfortable. I've had may fair share of jjamppong over the years, and this was easily one of the cleanest, most satisfying versions I've tried. Their white jjamppong is the best one so far. The broth had a comforting depth without feeling overly heavy, and every spoonful was packed with ingredients. They definitely didn't skimp on the seafood and vegetables, which made the entire bowl feel hearty and well balanced rather than just being mostly noodles and broth. If you enjoy a little heat, do yourself a favor and ask extra spicy. The added spice gives the broth another layer of flavor and beings everything together beautifully without completely overpowering the dish. I'd happily return, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a spot that values consistency and hospitality just as much as the food itself.

A watery jajangmyeon that tastes worse than a cheap 3-minute Ottogi jajang or Chapaghetti (which costs less than $5) is definitely overpriced at $15. You'd honestly be better off paying a little more and eating somewhere else. This is honestly the worst Jajangmyeon I've ever had in the OC area, even including k-snack bars. It was worse than even Hong Kong Banjeom, which is cheaper than this place.
