Moobongri Soondae

Wow, this is the spot for authentic Korean dishes and environment.Parking: They're located in a small plaza. Finding a spot is difficult. Highly recommend backing into a spot if you can.Ambiance/Environment: It's located in the corner. It doesn't look like much outside, but once you walk in, it's really nice and clean. They have a medium sized space with a good amount of indoor seating. I love their tables bc there's a hidden drawer filled with utensils & napkins.Service: One female server assisted us. She didn't mention her name, but she was courteous, quick, & efficient! There was a language barrier, but she knows enough to get by. You'd order via the tablet and pay at the end.Food:1) Hinoki - This was larger than I thought! The brisket and veggies came in a Hinoki wood cooked on top of a portable butane stove. Everything inside was cooked well done. Make sure to dip this in their sauce! I paired this with white rice. It was sooo delicious!2) Grilled large intestines and abomasum - Aka daechang and makchang in Korean. This was one of their new dishes. It was also cooked on top of a portable butane stove with a generous amount of bell peppers, onions, & garlic. The intestines were not too chewy and had lots of flavor.3) Spicy Soondae Soup - Soondae is Korean blood sausage. It was cooked well but could use a bit more Soondae. It also contained other veggies. The soup was sooo good! It actually wasn't too spicy.Pricing: It is on the pricier end, but trust me when I say it's worth it. We enjoyed our dining experience!

Very clean and well lit Korean restaurant. The waitress was very attentive and kind. The food was a little bit of a let down. The spicy pork belly soup had a strange aftertaste. The hinoki brisket was tough and without the dipping sauce the meat and veggies were overall bland and left more to be desired. The dipping sauce was a delicious wasabi soy sauce mix that saved the brisket. The side dishes were the star of the show. Crunchy radish, nicely fermented kimchi, and super flavorful sesame oil chives. The complimentary homemade sweet rice drink was not too sweet and very delicious.

This is Korean comfort food at its finest!If you're looking for authentic comfort food in Cerritos, then this is the spot to go to! They're known for their soondae, hearty Korean soups, and steamed meats like their brisket and pork belly. I love Korean blood sausage, and the ones they make here are homemade and super tasty. If you're not a fan, then I would recommend getting their steamed brisket which comes with some chives, beansprouts, and enoki mushrooms, where the meat is so tender. We also got one of their specials, which was a combo that included a choice of gopchang, daechang, or makchang, with a bottle of soju or beer which was such a great deal! All the meats are grilled right in front of you, and the meat soaks up so much flavor.All their banchan is fresh and made from scratch, pairing perfectly with all the meats you get here as well. I highly recommend coming here if you want delicious and authentic Korean comfort food!

Moobongri Soondae is such an underrated spot! This gem is one of my favorite traditional authentic Korean restaurants I've been to. Known for their soondae, grilled intestines, braised beef short ribs and Hinoki steamed meat, I can see this place being really popular!The Hinoki steamed brisket and pork belly is prepared in the kitchen and then brought out in a cypress wood steamer to be cooked a bit more at the table. The braised beef short ribs was tender and rich in flavor, making the overall dish so good! I love the cleanliness of the restaurant, new and modern. The location shares a small parking lot with other restaurants but there are close parking spots on the street as well. Service here was amazing, super friendly and attentive. While enjoying my dinner, the staff kept checking up to make sure the brisket was getting cooked properly in the Hinoki steamer.I'll have to come back for the grilled intestines and soondae!

Free parking lot. Friendly staff. Self serve barley tea, but we were served regardless. Order with tablet in the menu.Utensils in the drawer of the table. Super attentive staff..we forgot to check the steamer box and he came to flip the meat to make sure it was cooked.Shikye for dessert! On the house.Order: seafood pancake, oxbone soup with brisket, beef bone soup, and steamed brisket with leeks, enoki mushrooms and bean sprouts. Plenty of food for 3People. Even had left overs.I wish the steamed box cam with a variety of veggies. Like cabbage, carrots, broccoli to name a few.

Moobongri is a traditional authentic Korean restaurant specializing soondae ( blood sausage)! We ordered: - seafood pancake - ox bone soup with glass noodle ( recommend ) -soondae soup ( popular - recommend )- spicy pork neck bone soup ( recommend ) - beef rib soup with glass noodle I love how the soup also comes with rice, and some with glass noodle, very comforting food.

I recently visited Moobongri Soondae with my dad for dinner and was happy to see there's a new Korean restaurant nearby! Located on South Street and in the same plaza as Ziggle BBQ, they have a small parking lot available but it does get pretty crowded during peak hours. When you walk in the restaurant you'll notice that it's a simple but very clean interior. They give traditional Korean restaurant vibes and even have the self service utensils and napkins available on the table. They have an iPad at each table for you to place your order and the server only comes by to drop off your food. The food came out pretty quickly and also a good amount of banchan was available. My dad and I both got the spicy soondae soup and it was soo good. I loved how rich the broth was and they give you generous amounts of soondae. It tasted very fresh and filling without giving off a strong pork smell as well. Even though we got the spicy level, it wasn't too spicy, more like a mild. They also offer other menu options so I'm excited to try the rest of their dishes too! If you're in the mood for authentic Korean food, then I'd definitely recommend checking out Moobongri Soondae!

My new favorite Korean restaurant! I visited for the first time last week for dinner and loved it so much that I came back again for lunch with friends this week. Highly recommend the Spicy Braised Beef Short Rib, and the Hinoki - Brisket with Veggies. Last time I visited, I tried the Sweet Braised Beef Short Rib. Both the spicy and sweet ones are incredible, but because I'm a fan of spice, my favorite is the spicy one! I really loved the flavor of the Braised Beef Short Rib. The meat was nice and tender, and the flavors of the meat, rice cakes, and mushrooms were unbeatable. Also love all the side dishes here. It's not your everyday Korean restaurant. They have unique dishes and the presentation of the food here is stunning. In addition, the service is amazing. The server checked in on the meat (for the Hinoki - Brisket with Veggies) and let us know when it was ready to eat. He was also great about checking in and making sure we had everything we needed the whole time, including water. Such an amazing Korean restaurant! I'll definitely be back again soon.

HIDDEN GEM IN OCmoobongri in cerritos/Artesia offers authentic Korean cuisine and made me feel like i was in Korea again! Their spacious interior also included of utensils on the side of the table and a self serve kiosk!The Hinoki-Boiled Pork Belly With Veggies is a MUST TRY! Soo soft and flavorful and paired perfectly with the veggies. I highly recommend trying Moobongri!

투고하는데 밥을 빼놔서 전화했더니 죄송하다는 말은 없이 다시 오라네요. 그래서 30분 걸려서 밥을 픽업하러 내가 가야하냐고 했더니 아.. 네 이러고 끝다시 전화해서 그럼 밥값이라도 환불하라고 했더니 어떻게 하죠..? 이러네요. 양도 전보다 줄고 서비스는 완전 엉망이네요. 처음으로 옐프 리뷰 답니다.
