    This place is really cool and super affordable. The food was delicious and definitely worth visiting again. They also do have vegetarian options, which is always a plus :)

    Love this store! The buns are soft and fluffy. We've got the pork belly, kalbi and chicken. My favorites are pork belly and kalbi beef. The chicken has caramelized fried onion, that was a good touch as wellS The fries were bomb too. Great spot, good quality over price!

    I flagged this place after seeing it on DDD and it did not disappoint. They were out of the pork belly, which was a bummer, but we ended up getting 4 different buns. Our favorite was the katsu and the veggie (surprisingly). We also got the corn cheese, but ended up eating the buns first. Recommend doing it the other way around next time. Really cute little shop that has plenty of parking near by. Will definitely be back to try the pork belly next time we're visiting LA.

    Nice chill place, there's parking in the Banchan lot next door or street parking. Go at happy hour for better deals on the buns! You go up to the front to order and they bring you your food. Price is pretty reasonable and the fries are pretty good. The deep fried Oreos are good, a little salty, and the green tea ice cream it comes with was a little melted and didn't really taste like anything but still pretty decent overall.
