Jun Won Restaurant

This place has delicious seafood pancake. The braised ribs were perfect. So tender and well seasoned. The pollock casserole was okay, a bit too fishy. I gave it four star because our first waiter, tall younger guy, basically ignored us even after we waved him down to get our order. The lady was nicer and tried to explained what's good and what to do with the leftover.

Still the most incredible Steamed cod. The new location is in an interesting Plaza but the food is still first rate. The steamed cod is incredible, moist and flavorful. The buttery nature of the cod comes through the kochujang onion sauce and is perfectly balanced. The spicy crab is another favorite and the service is always polite if not a little rushed! There is almost always a wait, so factor that into your time and use the valet instead of looking fur street parking. It's only $2. Highly recommended.

The first time I went there, it was very tasty as a rumor. It was the right moment to feel the taste of the Republic of Korea. The best. 정말 맛있다.

I ordered the Pollack Casserole, $13.95. big bowl of very tasty broth with several chunks of Pollack, bok choy-like greens, two kinds of mushrooms, soft tofu and a solid white veggie - not sure what it was. Then came 9 small plates each with a different veggie in it's own sauce, a small salad of greens with a mildly sweet dressing and a small bowl of sticky rice. Quite an adventure for someone who has not had this before. The waiter was very thoughtful in helping me to eat it correctly. He also gave me a glass of tea even though I didn't order a drink. Nice gesture.

This is the place to go for real Korean food made by a real Korean mom. Not a Korean BBQ restaurant with loud techno music. My wife says the food here is what your good Korean mom would make you on your birthday. I used to go once a week even though it's an hour away with traffic. I just wish I had more time to go more often. Jeff, his mom and the staff treat everyone like family.

We had the steamed cod (I’m guessing it was black cod) and it was outrageously good. The steamed cod was on top of huge radishes and covered in a sort of spicy red mixture/sauce. Wow, it was delicious. We also got a sort of mild flavored beef dish that was also delicious. I’d go back again to try the rest of the menu.

The steamed black cod was delicious, the sauce did not overpower the flavor of the fish. We got 4 steaks, along with 4 large daikon discs with the order, so I felt it was plenty for two people to share (especially with the banchan). Service was also very good, our server came by frequently to refill dishes and drinks. A little spendy, but the taste was worth it

Update: UMMMMMM a home-style korean restaurant that is now on the michelin guide? Helloooooo, why have you not been??? I have now been back at least a half dozen times in the last couple of years. Amazing.This is my go-to place for a large party of 6 or more friends and it has never disappointed. We always get the pork belly, spicy squid, braised cod, braised short ribs, sea food pancake, etc... and a few other dishes. Delicious banchan, great service always and I really do this the best homemade Korean food in LA. Can't really say enough about what a pleasure it always is to eat here and how great the service is. Just ask for recommendations and they will give them!! Even if you are new to Korean food, the servers and the owners will steer you to the right dishes for a memorable delicious night! Absolutely wonderful... Boss'am, spicy squid, soups and fish all so delicious and the staff is super warm and kind. We will definitely be back!!
