4 Restaurants to Try This Weekend in Los Angeles: May 9 | Eater LA

"Set in a Koreatown strip mall (same plaza as Rice Chicken and Stagger Coffee), this spot specializes in cumin-spiced lamb skewers served alongside beer, rice, dumplings, and more. The restaurant opens at 4 p.m. and comes alive at night with K-pop and Y2K remixes blaring over the speakers as random music videos play on the television in the back. Beer is fairly affordable and is available by the pitcher if dining with a group, and the restaurant stays open until 2 a.m., just in case late-night cravings hit. The main downside is that most of the time the skewers come pre-grilled from the kitchen instead of being grilled at the table, so if table-grilling is a dealbreaker, look elsewhere." - Eater Staff
