"There are a few Korean options in West LA, but Tofuya will always be Old Faithful. The “spicy” tofu soup here is more like a “medium” when compared to Koreatown spice levels, but comes loaded with soft, jiggly tofu that soaks up the piping hot beef broth and kimchi funk. Make sure to tack on some sweet bulgogi to your soondubu combo, which comes on a sizzling skillet of onions that will rubberneck any passerby who catches a whiff. The only potential downside to Tofuya is the brutal lighting and lack of alcohol. However, there’s always Seoul House of Tofu down the street that serves a similar (albeit not as good) version of this meal, plus beer and soju." - Brant Cox, Sylvio Martins, Arden Shore
