"Baekjeong, originally endorsed by a popular South Korean entertainer, returns to Koreatown with a modern space, full bar, private dining room, and new dishes like Hodong Ramyun, continuing its energetic and fast-paced atmosphere." - Eater Staff
"Baekjeong is set to open by May 2024 at 3429 W. Eighth Street with a full bar, private dining room, and VIP entrance. The restaurant space was originally intended for Ahgassi Gopchang, and it will be operated by Kijung Hospitality, which runs other Baekjeong locations in Southern California." - Matthew Kang
"When Kang Ho Dong Baekjeong opened in LA’s Koreatown 10 years ago, it revitalized a scene that had been languishing in the all-you-can-eat era of the aughts. Opened by one of South Korea’s most famous television hosts and comedians, the slot inside the historic Chapman Plaza brought energy and crowds to Koreatown, with fans aching for fresh cuts of galbi and prime outside skirt cooked with a combination gas and charcoal grill." - Matthew Kang
"Kang Ho Dong Baekjeong has proliferated around Los Angeles, and still remains a fun place to gather with friends, sip shots of soju, and partake in mostly very good meat on the tabletop grill. Some people prefer its neighbor Quarters, which is operated by the same restaurant group, but Kang Ho-Dong is the O.G." - Matthew Kang
"Kang Ho Dong Baekjong took a straightforward premise—unfussy, high-quality KBBQ—and turned it into a mini-chain, complete with its own trademark (yes, they own the phrase “We Meat Again”). Nowadays, you can find Baekjongs in Torrance, Rowland Heights, and Irvine, but when we’re in the mood for massive meat and pork combo platters, we usually head to their flagship location in Koreatown. This rowdy spot on 6th Street (the entrance is through the back parking lot) has long been a home for drunk college kids, birthday parties, and every other kind of big-group gathering. And for that reason alone, wait times often balloon. Stay strong though, because their gorgeous displays of cast-iron prime ribeye and boneless short ribs make the lines worth it. Or, you can just do what we do and walk over to Toe Bang for a few rounds of soju until they call your name." - Brant Cox, Nikko Duren, Sylvio Martins
