Per my friend's recommendation, I ordered the second item on the menu, which was the Whole Chicken, Ginseng, Garlic, etc. in Chicken Soup with Rice. At around $18, the price point is reasonable. Service was friendly and efficient. Located in the same strip mall as Sun Nong Dan and Hangari Kalguksu, this is definitely a popular area for Korean soup. I don't know if I'm in a huge rush to come back here specifically, but we all enjoyed our meal. I would recommend checking this place out if you're in the area.
The soup is nice and clear but not as filled as one would expect if the soup has been slow cooked for hours. I ordered the ginseng chicken but I couldn't taste any ginseng. The set is simple with a bowl of rice and some kimchi sides. Best if you can speak Korean, but ordering shouldn't be a problem regardless.
I’m totally obsessed w the radish salad my new crack addiction. I ate like a lil piglet 4 rounds!!!!! Should have written a review a long time ago…the pandemic happened and in my case a time warp took place. Best place for soups to warm and heal wotever ailments you may have. It’s all damn good and healthy!!!
I got a #4 cow ox foot in soup with rice, it was super delicious! Ox foot was tender and instantly melted in the mouth. It paired perfectly with wasabi and soy sauce with a hint of chili for dipping. Broth is naturally flavorful without additional seasoning, and the side dishes had that homemade traditional taste. Staffs were incredibly kind and friendly, even offering us a refill. Very hospitable!
Comfy food. We came here the day Hurricane Hilary was en route to Los Angeles. First tropical storm to hit LA in 80+ years. Under heavy rain, and a random earthquake too, comfy soup was all we needed. Mountain was the place to be.
