Loved all the food in here. Especially their kalbi and marinated kalbi is awesome!!!But one of the staff who cook our meat, not attentive. He ripped off all of the meat while he was cooking sticked on the grill and made loud aNoise with his tongs.

Really good!The only thing is it is a bit pricey. However you get a ton of side dishes and a salad and other service items based on your order. The portion sizes are huge and quality is 10/10. We got sat right away and the food came out quickly. And they’re open on Sunday’s. Parking is limited but you can park/shop in Zion Market next door and then head over to eat. (At least that’s what we did.)

Came here while visiting LA, got the combo B. There were three of us eating and it was a lot of food. Our server was excellent and cooked the meat to perfection. The meats were delicious and melted in your mouth !!! Went in a sat evening about 630, waited for 20 min before we got seated. Greatly enjoyed our evening !

It’s never disappoints . Soowonbgalbi is just the very good & always consistent.If you are not sure which of many k bbqs to go to in K-town. This is It very yummy ?

This is THE place for authentic, charcoal Korean BBQ (I believe the charcoal is imported from Korea). Delicious food and fantastic service. Must try! Just wish there was more banchan, haha.

Outstanding in every way. We have eaten at at least a dozen Korean BBQ in LA's Korea Town and Soowon is, by far, the BEST!. Great service. The salads and soup were fantastic. Garlic shrimp was delicous, however, the prime rib eye steak was the BEST! Even better than at Ruth Chris and all other steak houses at which we have eaten.

One of my favorite restaurants. It's the best dinner ever. Galbi and naengmyeon are the best combination.I recommend it to anyone.

Oh man, so conflicted between 4 or 5 stars. 4 stars because this place is soo pricey. 5 stars cause it tastes soo good ? I’ve had 꽃살 at other places that’s much cheaper and tastes just as good if not better. But the suwon galbi specialty def lives up to its name. I think they could let it cook a little bit more they cut and stir it around on the grill. Also, all their banchan is on point. We spent a good $400+ with 5 dishes, 3 naengmyun, and a soju.

There was a really long wait so we just sat outside, where we could sit right away without a reservation. We had a combo and the meat (all different kinds) were excellent and service was good. The only reason its 4 instead of 5 is they can upgrade ban- chan a little bit. I had other places with better ban-chan dishes. But can’t complain about the main!

No improvement over the year. 4 stars for the food quality, 2 for service
