2 sul lung tang, 1 ddaro gook = $52Portion was great. Kimchi portions also great - got the cabbage and radish kimchis. Compared to other kimchis, I've had better but I liked it because it wasn't too salty, sweet or spicy so it didn't overpower the soups The sul lung tang had enough flavor for me to have without salt. It wasn't mind blowing but it was better than the usual expectationThe ddaro gook wasn't too spicy and had an assortment of veges so loved that. The base of the ddaro felt like it was a 무국? All in all, clean aftertaste with a deep taste of the bone broth. Rice was also chewy and not mooshy. Great take out for the price

When I walked into this restaurant that only has Korean writing on the walls, and seeing that the customers are mainly older Korean folks slurping away in delight, I knew this was going to be a very authentic spot.The Sul Rung Tang (ox bone marrow soup) - very comforting soup with rich flavors of bone broth. Bo saam jup shi (sliced tender pork) - delicious and tender. Paired with the Napa, garlic, and dipping sauces are the way to go!Will definitely be back for another comforting meal!

Very well-rounded experience here! It was a cold and foggy morning and I happened to have the day off so I decided to venture out for breakfast. I really wanted some soup but the only appealing variety was Korean. Wasn't feeling optimistic til I went on yelp and saw there was a Korean restaurant open early! Parking is ample but there is construction going on so at first glance it may seem closed. The woman who was there this morning was very kind and helpful. I'm half Korean but don't speak it so it's very helpful (and appreciated!) when someone can speak good English like she did. I got the straight forward beef soup and there are two noodle selections (flour or sweet potato). The food came out so fast! The interior of the place is no frills but everything seemed very clean. The soup was still hot by the time I got home and I was happy to see I had my soup, noodles, rice, seasonings, green onion and two generous portions of kimchi (radish and cabbage). I am not sure if they serve banchan when you dine in but this was plenty. The soup was fantastic and quite soothing and the kimchi (like another yelper mentioned) is fire! I'm picky with kimchi because I hate tasting the shrimp or seafood flavor and neither of these had that going on. The soup was about $16 or so and I only ate half so $8 per home cooked meal isn't bad at all! I may have to dine in one of these days but great experience ordering out (and they take Apple Pay!)All in all great experience all around

I truly love finding hole in the wall places like this. My wife and I come when we're looking for some warm soup but we've tried almost everything on the menu and we are never disappointed! Seolleongtang (ox bone broth) is definitely the safe bet if you're craving some hot soup on a cold day.

PROS: - Plenty of parking in this plaza. - The ajummas here are really nice and attentive. - The sulungtang is pretty good. The broth is rich and they put plenty of meat in the soup. - The kimchi here is fantastic. Both the napa cabbage and radish kimchi are fire. - The prices are also very fair. CONS: - None.

Got samgyetang to get more energy through the summer - the chicken was quite small, but the soup was delicous and chicken was tender. The soup is on clear side, so if you like thicker soup, this place isn't for you. But overall it was delicious!

Amicable service with an old Asian vibe inside. While I'm sure you only come here for the soups, as a family we decided to get the dumplings and bo ssam. Everything was delicious, especially the banchan that came with it. If it was only my wife and I, I'd come back for the soups which seem more popular and also delicious looking.

Delicious even if you order the food for takeout.I do love me some offal or internal organ meats in the beef broth: seokeo sulrungtang is my go to dish.The lady serving me is always very efficient, quick and friendly . Remember to add your salt and green onions to taste. The milky broth is purposely bland but so very satisfying especially on a cold night.Banchan always delicious but there is a sign that says they cannot be taken home! I think that's if you are packing up leftovers because they always send it in small containers.Quiet and usual customers are family members eating together.

Nice service from the Korean ajumma. We ordered the #1 sullungtang on the menu on the wall, and it was $14.99. I got the #2 haejangguk which was $15.99. We also ordered the rice cake and dumpling soup that was $16.99 (?). If you're in the La Palma area, I recommend. There's a Korean market in the same plaza and a bakery, so you can get groceries afterwards. The soups taste like home. The kimchi and radish kimchi are so good, too. Fresh. Cute Korean decor inside as well.

When I think of a small mom n pop shop, Jang Mo Jip is the definition of it! This is my first time here, and I was immediately impressed by the food here. This hole in the wall shop offers a smaller selection of food with it specializing more in soup-and-rice dishes. Honestly, I appreciate a smaller menu because to me it means they hone in on perfecting their dishes and it prevents decision fatigue for the indecisive customer (like me). We had to try the bossam because I was craving it very badly! I love eating boiled pork belly topped with kimchi, garlic, jalapeno and ssamjang sauce and then wrapped in lettuce It's so good! And the Sam Kye Tang was even more satisfying with it's rich and thick chicken broth flavor It melted in my mouth alongside with the purple rice we got. They also provided complimentary sides (aka banchan) which is why I love eating out at Korean restaurants because of their fermented veggies. Everything about this mom n pop shop were good. The only 2 cons I had was that they do NOT let you take leftover side dishes (kimchi, radish & seaweed). Not sure why this policy exist but makes me sad that these sides gets thrown to the trash if you do not finish them during your meal there. And the menu had obscured prices so I didn't know how much they cost until they bought out the receipt.
