I ordered takeout from them and was not discounted: delicious jjajjang myeon, no frills. Right in the middle of little Tokyo it's nice to find some Korean options too outside of Koreatown!

Jin has some delicious chinese food in the central of little Tokyo! Though I wouldn't come again, just because I'm able to make chinese food through the comfort of my home, I can appreciate the authenticity of their food, as well as their comforting service!

The chinese food, jajangmyum and jins special shrimp was delicious. Its funny bc we ordered the wings app and it came after our entrees were served. But either way I would not recommend it. It was dry and tough. And the skin seemed old and thick. I thought what a great spot after Jins cupsleeve event. And even the address has the word astronaut!! Anyways....iykyk I think it might be hard for me to come back to this spot bc they dont validate anymore. Parking needs to be better so i can spend more time in this plaza and spend money... Parking is $2.50 per each 15mins. Check lots nearby for better flat rates. I wonder if the $5 one is still open and the one by the "mall"? Its been so long

Okay... like someone else wrote, I wasn't expecting much, especially since I was the only one there when I arrived, but damn the 짜장면 (jjajangmyeon aka black bean noodles) slaps!! I've been searching all over Ktown for a good one, but I found most of them too sweet and greasy and lacking flavor depth... but this one is damn good. It has a great balance of salty, ever so lightly sweet, and umami without being so greasy that you see a layer of oil like some other spots!! Also loved the thicker consistency. (I hate when restaurants make it watery!) I added shrimp for some protein and it was cooked to perfection as well as the steamed veggies. The portion was crazy huge for a lunch set so definitely shareable with 3 people if you get something else. Otherwise it is shareable by 2. I wish it wasn't so close to because my waistline will be in serious trouble... The only reason it wasn't a 5 for me because the pork was non-existent. I found 1 piece. Lol. Wish there were more pork bits in the sauce, but it was so tasty and the service was great so I'm still happy! I'm genuinely happy kiddo right now.

Friends and I happened upon this restaurant while at Weller Court It wasn't busy and we were hungry so it was the perfect spot. I was a bit apprehensive because of the fact that it wasn't busy for a Friday evening. After dining there, however, I don't understand why this was the case. The food was really good. The potstickers were a good size (not like the typical Barbie sized ones). My fave dishes were the Mongolian Beef, Orange Chicken, and Black Sesame Noodles. The service was pretty quick and very friendly. It's not a big restaurant but it can definitely accommodate a large party of 8-12. This is a plus as many restaurants in this area are not group friendly.

I honestly wasn't expecting too much but the jajangmyeon here was yummy!! Probably the best one i've ever had and that's saying a lot because jajangmyeon usually disappoints me at most places. Very saucy and lots of veggies - the noodles were also very bouncy. The lunch special comes out to about ~$17 after tax & tip, and it includes egg drop soup/egg roll/kimchi/danmuji. The soup was really good. You can also get a free canned drink if you check into yelp! Service was fast and very friendly. Establishment was clean. My favorite thing about this place is that the portions are huge - definitely enough for at least two meals.

Very quaint Chinese restaurant located at this Marukai Supermarket in Little Tokyo. Seating area is very limited but service was great. My sister and I got hungry walking around so we finally decided to eat lunch here. Tried the Sizzling Chicken Teriyaki Lunch Special....a generous serving plate but was not sizzling enough to smell the aroma of the dish!!! Bulgogi was delicious and sure was served with a generous amount serving in the platter.

My favorite place to eat in Little Tokyo! The food is always house-made and absolutely delicious. I'd strongly recommend the cheese wontons as an appetizer! You are also provided a complimentary salad (and I'm not sure what their dressing is, but it's so good). The service is amazing! Our waiter was extremely kind and attentive. While dining in, I also took notice that there were some regular customers coming in and ordering takeout, and the waiter/host knew them all very well, remembered their usual orders, and seemed very kind. I loved that they took such care of their customers. The dine-in experience is somewhat small, but the vibe of the seating area is cozy and chill. I love eating in as much as carrying out. I highly recommend getting the jajangmyung (black bean noodle). This is my favorite restaurant to get it from and nothing tastes quite as good as here!

Met up with some friends for lunch, one is very picky about her food and this place was approved. I arrived around 12 and shortly after we were seated everyone and their mother showed up. It got packed fast. Luckily we perused the menu beforehand so we knew what we wanted and even ordered for one of my friends running late. The lunch special includes miso soup, rice and a veggie egg roll. I got the jajangmyun. Portion was huge and it was flavorful. My friends had the beef chow mein and Bulgogi plate. They also enjoyed their food. I was in a rush to get back, so I really appreciated that despite the lunch rush, our food came out fresh and hot. Their happy hour specials are also pretty good, must come back!

If ever in the area this is a great place to grab a great lunch special. Nice little spot in Weller court on the second floor. You can dine in or take out. I would recommend dining in to get the full lunch special experience. With the special you get a soup and salad with your meal. You get a healthy portion and it comes out freshly made. A little over 20 items to choose from. Great service and great food for a decent price.
