Ondal Crab House

Ondal is my go-to place for soy sauce marinated crab. The best part about their crab is that you get the high quality crab for a reasonable price, unlike some other more popular establishments in the same area.I've been here twice and the food is consistent. Along with the marinated crab, the monk fish stew is also a great choice. The small portion is plenty for 2 people to share with leftovers if you order more than 1 dish. Don't forget that you also get banchan!At lunchtime on either weekday or weekend, the restaurant is quiet, so you are guaranteed a table. Service is smooth and the lady who serves is so sweet. Can't wait to come back. I definitely consider this a nice lowkey gem of ktown!

Took my mom for her bday and we have different opinions! My mom preferred the spicy raw crab because she didn't enjoy the unusual flavoring of the soy! I personally really enjoyed the soy marinated crab because it tastes like they used star anise in the marinade! I feel that it added an extra depth of flavor and probably helped with any fishy smell. The stew was amazing as well, crab meat was very soft! Highly recommend!

I've been this place twice. I known this place long time but never try before. I wanted give this place 2.5 star. One of my other favorite restaurant closed early than this place so I went to this place eat spicy crab soup with soojebi. We ordered before went to here because kitchen closed 9pm. Emo's were very accommodating even it's close to closing time. They never push to us and made feel us while eat but I worried that only left 50mins for close restaurant and it automatically made us eating faster lol. We didn't want to they over worked for us. Spicy crab soup(3/5) - emo cutting crab for us. It little salty for us but it was fine. Soojebi wasn't great than I expected. I would like to eat fried rice which's popular here. Second visit this place I took my friend who visit from Dallas. We ordered spicy seafood soup. Spicy seafood soup(3/5)-nothing special. Tasted similar crab soup but fried rice was amazing. If you going to this place must try fried rice!! But you can't order one, minimum order from 2. Banchan was ok and sikhye was amazing They sell sikhye. I bought twice here. I bought sikhye also my friend bought sikhye.

Awesome seafood soup! Highly recommend on cold winter days to go with soju. Service is best!

COME ON NOW Lastly, and my personal favorite, hand pulled noods with fried rice made with the crab stew. Can't get any better then this fam.

Soup are really good and delicious Nice service Have sooo many appetite dishes with chives pancakes, All are very delicious !

I came to this Korean restaurant with my friends for the first time, I was come from far away, driving for three hours, very disappointed, the first time to eat such a bad crab soup, very fishy, bad taste ，It tastes like dead crab from the supermarket ，and three quarters of the soup is bean sprouts，Don't waste money

I love their food, especially the beef stew. I've been to 2 locations in LA and one location in Garden Grove. Food quality is always superb! The portion is huge. We ordered the regular size beef stew, which they said was good for only 2 people. Thought it wouldn't be enough so we ordered a seafood pancake too. Turn out four of us couldn't finish it. The leftovers were good for another breakfast and dinner haha. Their beef stew is a MUST! I've been to many Korean restaurants, and have only seen this dish in another restaurant in Rowland Highs. Also, when you are done with white rice, ask for ramen. And if you're still hungry afterwards, ask for their fried rice, they will make fried rice with whatever left in your pot.The server ladies are very nice and attentive. The only one downside is the parking :(. They have free valet parking right under the restaurant, but there aren't many spots. Your best luck is street parking but also very hard to find. We had to walk 10 mins to park. The food was good and worth it though.

The crab dishes at this place are amazing!! They got hands down the best spicy marinated crab in town. The crab soup is super flavorful. If you are a crab lover, you gotta come to this place. The Korean auntie was very friendly and taught us the traditional way of eating the dishes.
