Jinsol Gukbap Buena Park (진솔국밥 부에나팍)

Flavor-packed comfort food! The beef bulgogi bibimbap came sizzling, with perfectly crispy rice and tender, sweet-savory beef. The spicy cold noodles were refreshing with a bold, tangy kick so good on a hot day. And the spicy pork? Tender, flavorful, and straight-up addictive. Cozy vibes, fast service definitely a go-to Korean comfort spot in OC!

Jinsol Gukbap is a place you can always count on for a hearty and flavorful bowl of soup. The broth is rich and packed with depth, clearly made with care and time, and the ingredients are always fresh. Every bite feels like a warm, comforting home-cooked meal. Whether you're a fan of traditional Korean dishes or new to the cuisine, Jinsol Gukbap is a must-visit for anyone craving an authentic and satisfying meal. The atmosphere is cozy, and the service is friendly, making the experience all the more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Korean comfort food place you can rely on. I have been here many times and tastes of side dishes like pajeon unfortunately vary. But main soups are always good.

The best Korean pork stew I've ever had. I think it's even better than the original Jinsol in K-Town, LA. Their kimchi is truly exceptional. They're very busy and it's better to arrive early, especially during lunchtime, to avoid a long wait. The parking lot is a bit small, but they also provide an additional parking lot.

We got the soondae gukbap and the mixed pork intestine gukbap. OMG they are so flavorful, the best pork soup ever. They give you barley rice appetizer which was so delicious. If you ask for tea, they give you the whole barley teapot which is amazing. To me, a good meter to gauge whether a Korean restaurant is good or not is from their banchan. If their banchan tastes delicious, I know their food will be great. This place's banchan is so good, kimchi not too sour/ overly fermented. Every single dish was perfection.

This is one of the newest Korean eateries specializing in traditional dishes, particularly soups served with rice. I had already sampled their Kukbap (국밥) on a previous visit, so I decided to treat my friends to a rejuvenating meal after a night of indulgence before their long drive home. Arriving an hour before closing, we had a limited selection from the menu. Nonetheless, we were impressed by the restaurant's architectural design and ambiance. The side dishes arrived promptly and looked appetizing. Opting for the pork soup (돼지국밥), I found the broth to be authentically flavorful with generous portions of pork. However, I noticed that the sauce typically served for dipping the pork was missing. Whether it was an oversight or not included with the dish, I recommend adding it to enhance the flavor of the soup. Overall, it was a satisfying dining experience, but the addition of the sauce would make the 국밥 even more enjoyable.

As a tourist, going to a restaurant is always a hit or miss. This place is a hit. 10/10! From what I observed, their parking is always full so they have designated staff to guide you where to park. I came in and the place is packed. They have a sign in sheet for guests but staff were so quick to clear tables that I got seated within 5 minutes of arriving (I was third on the list of guests/parties). Their place mats made me smile for no reason. (Attached photo) Food was delicious. One of their staff is going around refilling the kimchis so I was already full before I got to my main dish. When I asked for a to-go container, the lady even helped me put my soup into the bowl. The customer service is great, food is delicious. Highly recommend if you’re craving Korean.
