"Sura may pale compared to Koreatown’s finest, but this Long Beach restaurant keeps locals from having to trek too far for bubbling tofu soups and crispy-bottomed bibimbap. Diners will find a fun mashup between Los Angeles’s Koreatown and Long Beach with dishes like hand-battered crispy squid, panko shrimp fries, and bulgogi nachos. The dining room is cozy with window-side booths and standalone tables for eating in." - Mona Holmes, Brian Addison
