Actually stopped by after the line for a nearby restaurant was too long, and we were too hungry to choose another place (tough luck). Glad we did though, there was no wait and the food still hit the spot! Banchan was good and did the job, with lots of variety even if not super unique dishes. We ordered an ox bone soup and seafood noodle soup, both of which came out quickly and were tasty. It took the servers a bit of time to take our order even with a pretty empty restaurant, but we had time so definitely didn't fault them for it. Definitely enjoyed the homey meal we had here, no complaints!

I came here with a friend pretty late on a Thursday around 11pm and the place was pretty empty. Ingot their pork neck bone soup and it exceed my expectations! They gave a huge portion of meat along with potatoes, and the broth was pretty flavorful and not as spicy as I thought it would be. We were also given rices and side dishes. The dish filled me up pretty quickly and was good enough for two meals. The prices are reasonable too. I definitely recommend for comfort Korean food and will be back if I'm ever in the area again.

Recently dropped by, and it wasn't too crowded. Dishes are around $15+, staff is super friendly and checked in on us, and the place is clean. We had the seafood tofu soup - it was fantastic! We thought it was a unique and convenient how each table has a drawer for spoons, chopsticks, and napkins so you don't need to keep calling the server if you need some more. I checked in on Yelp and they give a free soda which was nice! We don't know how much parking is but we know it's valet parking there (we Ubered). The location of this restaurant is def nice because there are other stores like Paris baguette, other Korean restaurants, 7-Eleven, H-mart, and etc right next to it that you can visit. Highly recommend this place and definitely making a return visit!

It's tough when I'm in Korea town and hungry. Parking becomes a chore, choosing a good spot becomes a chore, and getting a table becomes a chore. Lucky for me Yangji had a $4 valet parking and there was no wait. The menu selection variety was vast and the pictures made everything look enticing. My eyes and neck dodged left and right as big plates and bowls of steaming presentations of deliciousness passed by me. So much so that I was granted my request to move to a corner table and was be to enjoy every smell and gawk at every dish being served. A hard choice to make, but make it I did. Choosing a sea food kimchee noodle soup and seafood tofu soon. I enjoyed the udon noodles and had a bite of every type of seafood in my bowl. The tofu soon was hot and not too spicy with a great seafood flavor. It had a touch too much oil for my taste, but nothing a bowl of rice doesn't cure. The bachans were there, nothing spectacular. I hate to waste them, but they were more of a formal table decoration than something to write home about. I was hoping for a hot pot, but I could find myself to order a $25-$45 built for 2+ for just myself. I'm going to have to return with some backup and give it a try.

A few years ago we, unknowingly, stopped by Sun Nong Dan and weren't big fans because of how tough the short ribs were. But when we decided to stop by this place, we realized it was right next door and hoped for better and, luckily, had a much better meal! We came around 12:30 and only a few tables were taken so we sat right away. A younger, non-Korean guy helped us and he was kind except when we ordered, I pointed to the "maeun cheese galbijim" on the sign posted on the wall, then he said the short rib on the menu is better . . I didn't have a chance to see the price difference - a $30 increase - and I wasn't sure what the difference was with meat since the name looked the same, but we went ahead and ordered it. So the only real negative I have is the communication and ordering process, because with that big of a price difference it would have been nice to know why it was "better". Anyways, we also ordered a kimchi pancake that arrived first along with the banchan. Banchan was great - the favorites being the kimchi, cucumbers, adn fishcakes! And they have a kick which was nice! The pancake was delicious - it came out fluffy yet so crispy on the edges and it was a good size to share. They had a sauce for it specifically but it was a bit too salty to use more of. Then came the short ribs covered in cheese and torched at the table. it's a big plate and we definitely had leftovers. I went for the short rib first and immediately noticed how tender and soft the meat was! It fell right off the bone but fair warning - there's a thick skin underneath that can get tough so you have to tear away the meat from the membrane, once you get through that you're free to indulge! And the sauce was so good, thick, rich, flavorful, it was amazing. We were using up that sauce with the rice like no other. The bowl comes with soft potatoes and carrots and perfectly cooked onions. There is also thick tteokboki spread throughout! Overall, a solid spot we would be happy to return to.

One of my co-workers recommended this place! For months I have wanted Galbitang and I promise that was what I was going to get when I came...until...I saw the pork neck bone soup! I was torn between a known quantity and something new. Well, I went with something new and I was not disappointed! My mouth sang and my stomach was very happy. The broth was so good and the neck bones were so tender. I was not familiar with the perilla leaves but hey I was game and it was good! The bowl arrived and it was bubbling l, piping hot. I was trying to be patient and wait for it to cool sufficiently, but my mouth had other plans. I could come to this place everyday. The table behind me ordered the same thing and I kept glancing for pointers on how to eat the dish properly and gave up. It was on and I was in it! This place is a must visit. Simple, unassuming decor,but the food spoke for itself.

Provender: this is an excellent Korean restaurant in the heart of ktown. I ordered the ox bone soup and pork cutlet and both were well prepared. Prices: entres will run you about $14-15, and you also get some ban chan (side dishes). Parking: it's in a plaza so there are parking spots, but they tend to fill up fast. People: fun for all. Perks: they open early on weekdays and weekends. The takeout utensils are high quality from my experience. They offer a wide variety of stew-type dishes. Friendly staff. Get for takeout too. I believe most dishes come with rice.
