We had medium combo for us two ladies. It was more than enough. (I wish there was more explanation on the menu not only for Koreans but for non-Koreans) The gentleman who helped us cook the food was nice and kind. The fried rice was the bomb too. Please don’t forget to try that also.
We went there for lunch on Friday so not sure how the wait is during the weekend dinner time. We were the first customer. The restaurant was very clean and well organized it seemed like.
Agassi gopchang had limited business hour so this was the alternative but this was a big success!! It didn’t smell and very delicious. Please give it a try!!

Service was amazing, from two different waitress/waiters.
Not gonna lie, I was expecting less since it seems like a chain. However, this place was great! I came after a hard day of work, I just wanted food and didn’t care for much it cost. I’ve spent so much more in Ktown at places with so much lower quality compared to here.
Highly recommend! You’ll spend at most $100 for two people (with a bottle of soju and beer) if you get the normal combo, with good food and great service.

To be honest, I had zero expectations.
I had a place I always go for gopchang and knew that other place was the best.
Well, opinions change.
I may simply have found my new go-to place for it.
We ordered and just sat at the table waiting for the food to come and wondered when they’re going to start grilling. I know how long it takes to cook gopchang to perfection and was bothered that they haven’t started cooking anything.
That’s when I first heard some loud sizzling heading from the kitchen, then you see the billowing of smoke, then you smell it.
They cook 80% in the kitchen, then set it on your grill so you minimize the wait time staring at your food to cook while drooling.
Everything was seasoned well from the 3 different salads to the sauces and the meats were juicy.
Overall, I give it 10 out of 10.
Oh, there was kimchi fried rice at the end too but I don’t have a picture because I devoured it right when it came out. Oops.

A perfect spot for Korean bbq lover with A LOT of pork/beef inner organ options (AND SUPER DELICIOUS COLD NOODLE!!)
I got large intestine + jowl + tribe with spicy & cheese toppings added.
You can choose spice level and I think mild is pretty good for non-spicy person. They're already marinated and seasoned to be VERY TASTY.
The grilling takes a few minutes and you can mix them as you go (or ask the server to mix it for you) I really like the transition from zero to done - SEE REEL!!
Lastly, EAT IT WITH COLD NOODLE!! THIS IS A MUST!!EXTREMELY DELICIOUS!! BEST ONE I HAVE HAD SO FAR!!
I'd also totally recommend this place just for the service alone. I learned a great deal about how to eat it Korean way from my server lol.

Came here for the first time and tried the beef combo for $99.99 and it came with rib eye, short rib cut, brisket, rib finger, steamed egg, corn cheese, and kimchi stew. It was perfect amount of food for two people! Friendly service and always love when they cook the meat for you. It did feel a little expensive for the amount of food you get, since you can find other slightly better deals in the area, but I heard the intestines are really good and definitely want to try that next time!

Came here on a Wednesday afternoon after craving some Korean bbq and this place did not disappoint! We ordered the beef combo #16 and for 2 people it was a very generous amount of food. The highly marbled short rib was my favorite and super high quality meat. The server and manager were highly attentive and nice. Would definitely come back again!

My partner and I went there on a Wednesday night. Still packed with lots of customers. 85% Korean. Very authentic Koreanbbq! We ordered the medium set plus a fried rice. Enough for two people. Delicious beef intestines!! The fried rice was ok. Will definitely come back again.

Probably the best gopchang you’ll find in Koreatown! Marinade is nice and simple. I’ve been to two too many gopchang-specialized places where their marinade was too sweet and overpowering.
Side note, there’s a kick to their soybean paste soup, which I especially love.

What a good restaurant
Their food, from side dishes, intestine combo and to cold noodles are good. Feels like they cook everything with extra love
I can see the servers gives a lot of close attention to each table, service is really impeccable.
If you come for gopchang, must have the fried rice at the end

The food is a bit bland here, there isn't too many side dishes. The service staff are extremely nice, and the actual meet was decent. You'll have to street park or valet. If you valet, its 2 bucks. Since they recently opened it seems like they still need to work out the kinks. Something is missing, either their servers are slow or they don't have enough. Also, the lines are long and possibly wait over an hour
