Jjin Jjajang

New Favorite Spot for Korean-Chinese Cuisine!I thought Los Angeles had the best Korean-Chinese food, but this place proved me wrong! Every dish I tried was seasoned perfectly and absolutely on point.The kkanpoong shrimp was my favorite--just the right amount of spice without being overpowering. The mapo tofu paired perfectly with fried rice, and the black bean noodles stood out because they were stir-fried with seafood, which is something I haven't seen often at other restaurants.The ambience is fresh and upbeat since the place is relatively new. The open kitchen is impressively clean, which is always a good sign. Inside dining is limited, but it never felt overly crowded.This is definitely my new go-to spot for Korean-Chinese food, and I wouldn't mind waiting 30 minutes to an hour to eat here again. Highly recommend!

First off, giant portions! These dishes could definitely be shared, which we learned quickly once we saw tables around us doing so. Consider sharing unless you want to try different items, of course! I came with my two other friends and there was a bit of a wait, but there is only limited seating so the space fills up quickly, especially during colder and rainy peak days. The menu is simple and offers their selection of noodles, noodle soups, tofu dishes, fried rice, and more types of stir fried and deep fried entrees. We each ordered one of their jjamppong dishes and one tangsuyuk (fried pork). We got the original, white, and stir fried jjamppong. The noodle soups had a lot of seafood from clams, mussels, and shrimp. On the side was pickled radish and kimchi which I loved to eat and were very crunchy to go with the noodles and pork. The seafood they used wasn't the greatest quality but provided lots of seafood flavor for the broth. Tangsuyuk was perfectly crispy and the aroma of the breading was in the air and made me sooo hungry! It was great paired well with the sweet and sour sauce.. Service took awhile too, but again, the portion sizes are very good. The service from the ladies in the front were so sweet and funny, I definitely enjoyed my experience here! They have a nice recognition displayed on the wall from the House of Representatives which is pretty neat! Overall, I had a pleasant experience at Jjin Jjajang and enjoyed the classic dishes they had to offer!

Honestly, the food we ordered tasted as if they were delivered from one of those neighborhood or app delivery places in Korea. Shrimp fried rice was like "omg, this tastes exactly like what you'd get in Korea when ordered for delivery" and their jjampong was very true to the seafood with tasty flavorful broth. Great service from super nice people, and am really glad to have solved my curiosity of "why are so many people lined up there for lunch everyday" and would explore other dishes on my next visit.

Small hole in the wall Korean style Chinese restaurant. Did not have any of the big seafood dishes but had everything else including orange chicken to my son's glee. Service was good. We ordered a lot of food. Food came out reasonably fast.

Ordered jajangmyeon and tangsuyuk the best combo. I loved their tangsuyuk it's way better than Paiks in my opinion because it's extra crispy. The sauce is a bit runnier than I'd like but overall this place is solid

They have galbi Jjam Ppong(갈비 짬뽕). Serving size is big enough for 3 people to share. Awesome for tired day or if you need to recover from a cold.

It has already been the second visit this week after my friend and I found out about this place!Their jjajangmyeon and jjamppong were just too delicious for us not to come back! The service was quick! There were not much seating areas so I am glad we came in a less busy time. Definitely recommend anyone who has some jjajangmyeon cravings while watching kdrama !

I ordered jjajangmyeon and jjambong. Both food wWas great probably the best in LA so for. Service and atmosphere was normal. It was clean. I will come again for sure

Delicious, huge portions, quick service and satisfies the jjamppong cravings! One bowl can feed two - the white jjamppong was FILLED with seafood and broth was delish.

Our new go-to spot for jjajangmyeon and jjampong! Generous portions, bold flavors, and perfectly chewy noodles. The service is great, and the restaurant is modern and clean inside.
