There was a time when the word "fusion" was a novel concept with restaurants. These days it can be a mixed bag. Sometimes it's a gimmick and other times it's flat out bad...like no one asked for Nordic pupusas? Every now and then though, there are alchemists who get it right...like the Kogi truck before them, Hungry Crowd manages to get the formula right.Owned and operated by a wonderful Korean family, their Instagram describes themselves as, "California fusion...new age American with a lot of Korean love," and it could not be more true. Hungry Crowd manages to be a diner, bistro, and trattoria...that also serves bibimbap. Come for breakfast, get some eggs benedict. For lunch, have some bulgogi tacos or a nice Cobb salad. On a mild summer evening, enjoy a glass of wine and dinner on their patio with some steak frites or some kind of pasta dish made with kimchi.When you walk in the place looks clean and sharp. There's a long island bar that's communal seating and the rest of the space is filled out with two and four tops. On a bright sunny day, you're bathed in the light that shines through from Riverside Drive. I haven't come here for dinner yet, but I can only imagine how nice and moody it might be.Every time I've come here, I was seated fairly quickly and a waiter always checks in to refill drinks or just to check in how you're doing. Their lemonade and cucumber lemonade are refreshing and the drip coffee is cromulent. While the service and ambiance itself earns this place five stars, the food is even more amazing.For breakfast, get anything with an egg on top. Even if you come in for lunch or breakfast, ask for a fried egg because it will be one of the best cooked eggs you've ever had. I'm not a fan of sunny side up eggs, but here, the well cooked egg and the quality of the eggs they use combine into a work of art. Foodies, if you want that perfect broken, drippy yolk shot, this is the place to go. Eggs Benedict, breakfast burrito, and the loco moco are my go tos in the morning. The loco moco is really special because they use the same seasoning for the bulgogi so it's nice and sweet, paired with the savoriness of cheese, gravy, and rice. The perfect bowl of comfort food on a cold night or a summer morning after you had a little bit too much at a BBQ the night before.For lunch, I'm not really sure what to get cause when I have been here after they've stopped serving breakfast, I still got breakfasty things. The tacos look like a wonderful option to have...just reading their descriptions on the menu evoke the bright flavors. I recommend getting the spicy pork, on well...anything. It's a meat option for the benedict and if it's good smothered with hollandaise, it's probably good eaten out of a shoe.For dinner, I can only imagine how good the things they serve are. They have a giant chalkboard full of dinner options, wines, and specials. I guess no one really asked for Korean fusion pastas and raviolis, but yes, I would like to eat that. I do have a coupe frames of reference for how good the dinner can be. If you want some steak frites, come here over an expensive and overrated steak house. The french fries are good and it's just a skirt steak, but it packs the flavor and tenderness of a rib eye. You don't really need the chimichurri, but of course, that is good too. Also their salads are probably good based off the side salads we've gotten with brunch. It's just greens with a simple vinaigrette, but I could eat a bowl of it.Hungry Crowd is everything you want it to be, but more so, it's that perfect neighborhood spot that everyone goes to and everyone should know.

While i appreciate the restaurant for taking our order and serving us, I won't be back to dine here again due to the subpar meal and flavor. The chicken wings, $14 is wildly too expensive for only 6 wings! To the chef or owner: Please stop using those cheap puny wings from Costco! They are super tiny, hardly any meat and have a cheap taste. This was the first red flag when our food was served when I saw those wings on the plate. Secondly, I have to say, the salmon Sashimi Salad is bland, boring special. Couldn't even taste the flavor of the salmon. I don't know what you can do to add more flavor to the dish as a whole, im not the chef there, however, it also fell short of caring to finish the plate. It's just a bunch of rice, greens and a vinaigrette with small pieces of sashimi. I am not a picky eater, but when something is off, it's hard to move on from it when you spend $70 bucks for lunch for 2.

Thoroughly enjoyed the noodle salad, fried chicken sliders and kimchi fried rice. Beer tasted great too!They were out of scallops the day I went but I hope to try it next time since it sounded so simple yet delicious. Kids liked the beef sliders but the sliders were so juicy they left behind a large puddle of soup on their plates...not sure what caused the excess moisture (maybe the sauce or onions or meat itself?) but it was a little much. Husband ordered the loco moco. I wasn't crazy about it, only order this dish if you want the meat patty to taste sweet or your favorite thing ever is bulgogi.

Cozy little place with several tables. They have a couple outside in front. - Kimchi Biscuits 2.1/5Thought the biscuit was dry with little kimchi flavor. The sweet cinnamon butter was VERY good though. - Skirt Steak 3.7/5Thought the steak was chewy, with little flavor. The chimichurri was flavorful and the brussel sprouts were VERY good. - Rose Pasta 4.2/5You can definitely taste the crab! It's not as creamy as you think. They give a lot of sauce. Really really good. Wish they gave some sort of garlic bread on the side to soak up all that yummy crab sauce! Street parking... it's pretty bad during dinner time.

This is my second review but I have been here several times since my previous review.I wandered in at about 11:00 on a Sunday, it was a cool sunny winter day. They have a wonderful weekend brunch with many specials. I opted for the fried chicken and waffles with a glass of Pinot Grigio. It was so comforting as well as decadent it was delicious!This place has comfy outdoor seating, a perfect place to people watch. There are a few customer parking spots which is convenient. The customer service is excellent, the food was brought to me in a timely manner and was regularly checked on. I ordered a cup of coffee however it came with non dairy coffee mate pods ONLY, I asked for milk and it was brought to me in a small glass.This is my go to place for a nice experience on a busy day!Thank you!

This place blew me away!Everything tasted sooo fresh. We got the kale salad with salmon and arugula salad with salmon. The red wind vinaigrette with savory and tangy and rest pulled the flavors of the salad together with the cucumbers, onions and olives. The grilled salmon was also perfectly cooked.The kimchi biscuit was a burst of flavors and deliciously tender. We also got a waffle which was nicely crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The cinnamon butter really enhanced the waffle aswell.All of the servers and hosts were incredibly helpful and sweet. We will definitely be coming back! I'm extremely happy with my first experience here.

Wow! This place is great! And right next to Trader Joe's, even better lolI came on a Saturday brunch hour. It's definitely busy but I was able to get seated on a timely manner. For food, we got the chicken dumplings and I got the Ranch eggs. My partner got the bibimbap. I enjoyed my Ranch Eggs. It was a light but filling meal. Eggs were cooked just right. The chicken dumplings had a nice soup broth so it did burn my tongue a bit. Service was good. They were on refills and very kind, generous folks. I will say, I think it's a little overpriced for what's given but the quality is there so it's a nice treat. Oh last thing. Parking, well, I parked somewhere where I would have been towed if I stayed longer but hey you do what you have to do (nervous face)Stop by if you haven't had the chance lol

I met up here with family relative and parking is easy, there's plenty of street parking everywhere. Their food was amazing. I'm very iffy on Asian fusion, but the way they do Korean fusion to their food is soooo good. Nothings overwhelming. Loved their kimchi biscuits. The service and ambiance is great too. Love how simple it is. They do only have one bathroom though which can get irritating when you go on a busy time.
