Just discovered this hidden gem in Chino Hills! Mindeulle serves truly authentic Korean home-style dishes. We tried the marinated crab (both soy and spicy versions) — absolutely flavorful and perfect for rice. The seafood pancake was crispy and packed with shrimp and squid. Portions are huge and ideal for sharing. The staff was warm and super helpful, making the whole experience feel like dining at home. Free parking in the building is a plus. Will definitely be back for more!

This restaurant is very cost-effective, and the portions are really big! The pork chop is bigger than the face, enough for 2 people. The perilla ginseng chicken soup is amazing, a whole chicken + glutinous rice, very nourishing ~ the cold noodles are chewy and refreshing, just right for summer. The taste is good, the portion is large, and the cost-effectiveness is also good. I recommend the white-cut meat, it's delicious

This newly opened Korean restaurant is so authentic — besides us, everyone else dining there was Korean 🇰🇷! That really says a lot about how legit the food is. We went just before dinner rush on the weekend, and the place was already almost full of Korean customers 😲. ✨ Braised Short Ribs (Galbijjim) The portion is huge! The staff helps remove the bones 🦴 and cuts the meat into small pieces for you. You can choose whether or not to add cheese when ordering. The ribs are coated in a rich, sweet-savory sauce — tender with a slight chew, bursting with flavor. The sauce also soaks into the side veggies like carrot and pumpkin. I especially loved the pumpkin — it was super flavorful! There’s also some tteok (rice cakes) mixed in, which makes the dish even more satisfying. ✨ LA Galbi + Spicy Tofu Soup + Purple Rice This combo comes with a generous portion — definitely too much for one child to finish alone! Their LA-style ribs were incredibly tender and easy to chew. The purple rice had a nice, chewy texture and paired perfectly with the beef. The spicy tofu soup was packed with seafood and other ingredients, and the broth wasn’t too spicy — totally fine for kids to enjoy!

When the menu tells you that not all images will reflect the dish, believe it. I thought the 2 item combo would include vegetable wrap like with the steamed pork, but its exclusive only to the steamed pork item combo. As compensation for my confusion we were given a small plate of vegetables. Otherwise, the seafood tofu soup portion size arrived warm (not hot) in a small portion size. The soup came with plenty of small seafood pieces, but the soup base was very peppery even at non spicy level. This was JUST enough to feed 2 people. The beef ribs were seasoned too sweet for my liking. Overall, i don't think I'd come again.

Trust me, this place lives up to the hype both online and in real life. Hands down the best marinated crab I’ve had in all of LA, and shockingly, it’s not in Koreatown. 【Spicy Raw Crab】 I originally wanted the soy-marinated version, but it was sold out — so I reluctantly got the spicy one. But OMG. Never going back. The sauce is perfectly balanced — spicy with a hint of sweetness, and super flavorful. The crab shells are thin and easy to bite through, and the portion is massive. So good I immediately ordered another to-go right after finishing. The staff even packed it in a thick insulated cooler after learning I had a 1.5-hour drive home. Now that’s service. 【Abalone Porridge】 The photos say it all — every spoonful is packed with chunks of abalone. Topped with egg yolk and sesame seeds, it’s nourishing and comforting. Flavors are on the mild side, so I recommend pairing it with kimchi or that spicy crab for the perfect bite. 【Pork Bone & Potato Hot Pot】 This arrived in a huge bubbling pot loaded with tender pork bones, soft potatoes, and rich red broth. The longer it simmers, the better it gets — ultimate rice companion. 【Boiled Pork Slices + Soybean Paste Stew + Veggie Wrap Set】 Total bossam vibes. A full slab of juicy boiled pork comes with ssamjang, fresh lettuce, perilla leaves, kimchi, and a legit doenjang jjigae. That massive plate of greens is everything — fresh, crisp, and balances the richness so well. Wrap, dip, repeat.

Absolutely loved our experience here! The food was incredibly delicious and freshly made. Portions were generous and definitely worth the price. The staff was super attentive, constantly checking in and keeping our banchan fully stocked without us even having to ask. Highly recommend!

The beef tofu soup was amazing - the tofu soaked up all the rich broth. Shane was incredibly friendly and treated us to some fresh raw marinated crab as well. The side dishes added so much flavor to the meal, and everyone was so warm and welcoming. Highly recommend this spot :)

🤤Taste :5/5 📍Environment: 4.3/5 🕴Service:5/5 OMG, I think I just found my new favorite Korean food spot! This place is so good, I might as well set up a tent outside and live there. Seriously, I’ve been back SEVEN weeks in a row. SEVEN. That’s like a committed relationship level of love. 💛The seafood pancake LIFE-CHANGING. It’s crispy, it’s smoky, it’s everything you’ve ever wanted in a pancake that isn’t drowning in syrup. And the dipping sauce? Chef’s kiss. I’d drink it if that wasn’t socially unacceptable Now for my soup lovers 💛 Dried Pollock Soup it’s great for hangovers, but honestly, it’s so good I’d drink it sober, tipsy, or even upside down. 💛Monkfish Soup Sweet and delicate, like a warm hug in a bowl. Who knew monkfish could do that? 💛The marinated crab I usually don’t go crazy for marinated crab, but this one? I was licking the plate like I hadn’t eaten in a week. The sauce is THAT good. If you’re not a fan of crab yet, this dish will convert you. For my fellow carnivores: 💛Dishes Combo is basically a meat feast that will make your carnivorous heart sing. 💛Braise beef short ribs The meat is tender and melting your heat 💛Octopus Hot-Stone Bibimbap is a must. The sizzling stone pot, tender octopus, and perfectly mixed rice? It’s happiness in every bite until you Finnish the last bite 💛 For noodle fans, the Hand-Pulled Dough Soup with Perilla Seed is like a Korean-Chinese fusion dream. The chewy dough pieces remind me of Chinese "mien geda," but the broth is next-level unique. It’s like comfort food with a surprise twist. To top it all off, the owner and his son aee incredibly kind and friendly . During peak hours you might need a little patient but everything is worthy for the wait 🙂

We've been to Mindeulle a few times now and we absolutely love it. Good Korean comfort food. They're located in strip lot across the street from The Shoppes at Chino Hills and next to Gen Korean BBQ. The restaurant is small, but modern and cozy. Their medley of banchan dishes are perfect appetizers and addictingly yummy, especially japchae, kimchi, spicy cucumber and cauliflower with white sauce. You can easily get filled eating them. The menu offers so many choices, including a few unique seafood items like monkfish and black cod. We are especially fond of their steamed monkfish with spicy sauce. Huge portions and can easily serve 3-4 people. We were surprised how big and meaty the fish was. The sauce is flavorful and not at all spicy. Peeled spiralize daikon radish and vegetables give the dish pasta like appearance without carbs. Highly recommend and worth $55 price tag. However, stirred fried octopus vegetable dish is just okay so it's easily skippable. Not enough octopus, I expect more for $54 dish. The two-item combo is a good deal. We got the short beef rib and seafood tofu stew combo. Beef short ribs are very well seasoned, tender and delicious. You get a good amount of meat which is nice. Galbi Jjim (braised short ribs) is fabulous and everyone's favorite. The sweet savory flavor profile is on point and perfectly cooked. The meat fall off the bone delicious too. Chive pancakes are good, but a bit on the greasy side. They give you white or purple rice with your order which is nice. The only complaint is that service can be a bit slow at times, especially when they're busy but overall, they're friendly and efficient.

went there mainly for the galbi jjim - which is pricy but so worth it! everything else we had turned out very yummy also. wish they had a spicy galbi jjim option - i'll inquire about it next time when i go! the wait could get long during rush hour, get there early!

Came here on a Friday night around dinner time and it was busyyy. No digital waitlist - just pen and paper. We waited about 20-30 minutes, which wasn't bad considering how packed it was. Lots of locals and Korean families, always a good sign of authenticity. While waiting, we saw dishes coming out and noticed how generous the portions were. The menu is super robust - pretty much every Korean dish you can think of, plus a few I haven't seen offered elsewhere in Chino Hills (bossam, galbi-jjim, tofu soup, pork cutlet, braised black cod, marinated raw crab, etc.). We had a party of four and ordered family-style: braised beef short ribs, spicy marinated crab, and braised black cod. Braised Beef Short Ribs - Slightly smaller portion than I expected, but so flavorful. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, and the rice cakes and pumpkin were perfect compliments. Definitely would order again. Spicy Marinated Crab - Crabs were super fresh and sweet, with a marinade that wasn't overly salty or spicy. One of the better versions I've had. I wish it came with seaweed, but still a top-tier dish - I'd get this again. Braised Black Cod - My favorite of the night. Massive portion, tender fish, and a sauce that soaked beautifully into the rice cakes and radish. So comforting and flavorful. I'd come back just for this dish. Prices are on the premium side, but the quality matches. Service was friendly and attentive, though the waitlist process could be improved. Overall, this spot feels like it's here to stay. Can't wait to come back and try more!

This is my go to Korean spot in chino hills! We normally order the bossam, or gamjatang and galbitang. The portions were huge and everything was very flavorful but not to salty. The gamjatang has delicious and has light spice kick. Bossam was very good, and I like how was it was more lean and meaty. Overall, service was great and the food was delicious!

It's not bad for a neighborhood restaurant but you really don't need to rush to go there. What's interesting is that there are quite a few Korean seniors there and usually, it's a good sign for authenticity... however, I have my doubts about giving it a 4-star. The Bandhan (free side sishes) is really weak here (only 6 dishes are offered). I usually get 10-12 in the Bay Area and there are good ones. The meat combo comes with a lot of fresh veggies that you can wrap your grilled meat with which I appreciate. It also comes with a small bean paste stew soup, and a small grilled/cooked meat of your choice. What I really like is the seafood pancake. It's so crunchy which is very satisfying. The portion is big but the price is also close to$30 an order which is a bit pricey considering it's in so Cal. The service is ok and polite, but its a bit slow actually So overall, it's ok but nothing to drive home, or giving you that feeling of authenticity. Hmmmmm.....maybe it's missing the Korean mama waitresses who usually talk loud/ enthusietically.....LOL......

This Korean restaurant Mindeulle is really good right in Chino Hills On Sunday, I came to Chino Hills with my family to look for food and visited this Korean restaurant called Mindeulle. Many people recommended it, so I decided to give it a try. I ordered a few dishes randomly, and surprisingly, they were all quite good: 【Seafood Pancake】Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with plenty of seafood, not the kind that's just coated in batter. Each bite is satisfying! 【Spicy Raw Crab】The soul dish of Korean cuisine! The raw marinated crab is super flavorful, fresh, spicy, and savory, really addictive, a killer for rice 【Seafood Soup】So fresh it makes your eyebrows fall off! The taste is also great. Adding a raw egg on top makes it even more flavorful, and it's very satisfying to drink. 【Bone Soup】The meat is generously portioned, and the bone soup base is rich, giving a very nourishing feel when you drink it. ‼‼The key point is! Their portions are really generous, perfect for sharing with a group, and the cost-performance is excellent~ Suitable for bringing family for a meal! It's located across from The Shops in Chino Hills, in that plaza, ~ Sisters who love Korean food can go for it‼

It is good to see more Korean restaurants operating in the Chino Hills area, especially one that offers bossam. It is relatively new, opening earlier this year. We ordered the bossam, and it came with a soybean paste stew. Inside was spacious and clean. The service was friendly. The food was delicious. I was not sure what to expect because I have been disappointed with Asian food outside of L.A. County and the O.C. The portions were also decent. I had a great experience here and would come back.

The food is all authentic! The Banchan is very delish! I've been here 2x but the 1st time I wasn't that impressed but today I had a change of heart. The portions were big and very flavorful. Will definitely bring the whole family. The service was great and the ambiance is very clean. No picture taken as I was excited to devour everything

Mindeulle is one of my favorite Korean restaurants in the Chino Hills area. If you go, I strongly recommend their cold noodles, bossam, and seafood pancake. They make their buckwheat noodles in house. It's really soft and chewy and perfect for a hot day. If you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend trying it. The waiters were also really attentive and made sure everything tasted good.

Simply phenomenal food! Really happy such an authentic Korean restaurant opened in Chino Hills. Food is simply outstanding and super authentic. Place is cozy and packed with Korean folks so that's always a good sign. The soondubu jigae (tofu soup or tofu stew) is super tasty and comes in generous portion. If you're a crab lover then the spicy marinated crab is a must try, even if you're skeptical about eating raw crab, you wouldn't even know it's raw. The crab is so fresh and not fishy whatsoever. The spice level is just right. The banchan is fresh and light yet full of flavor. Highly recommended.

Very authentic,Very sweet family owned(?) restaurant. There was a lady who came to tell us to eat the veggies like a mother would haha. Very sweet lady. The staff were great too. When we entered, the server was just about to eat, and he put his food aside to quickly greet, seat, and provide us with the menu and water. We got prime steak, which was very well seasoned and delicious. It was a combo that came with their soybean paste soup, which was also delicious. I didn't read like their kimchi, but the spinach and pickled radish was delicious!

起風記得添衣,下雨自己添傘,閒要閒的有滋味, 忙時要忙的有價值,在這春暖花開之時,我們要努力工作,快樂生活,當生活有望穿秋水的期待時,也常常就會有意想不到的驚喜喔~ 前兩個禮拜來吃冰時發現旁邊開了一家新的韓國店,生意火爆的呢,格格當然是要來探店的呀,他們一上來的前菜我就非常喜歡除了有豆芽,菠菜之外還有義大利小黃瓜,瓜醃得好好吃喔,朋友點的烤牛肉,味道不錯,他們配的是韓國人的大醬湯,我點了個靖魚,天哪也超大超大一個的,是不可能吃完的,可以當兩餐吃,現在去哪裡吃東西價格都不便宜,但這一家店味道不錯份量又超大,難怪我們在吃飯的時候又有人在外面排隊了, 推薦新店, 住chino hills 附近的吃貨真的是幸福呢, 不只新的餐廳一家家開, Hmart 也來了, 生活機能真是越來越方便了呀!

This newly opened Korean restaurant is so authentic -- besides us, everyone else dining there was Korean ! That really says a lot about how legit the food is. We went just before dinner rush on the weekend, and the place was already almost full of Korean customers . Braised Short Ribs (Galbijjim) The portion is huge!

LA Galbi + Spicy Tofu Soup + Purple Rice This combo comes with a generous portion -- definitely too much for one child to finish alone! Their LA-style ribs were incredibly tender and easy to chew. The purple rice had a nice, chewy texture and paired perfectly with the beef. The spicy tofu soup was packed with seafood and other ingredients, and the broth wasn't too spicy -- totally fine for kids to enjoy!

Brand New Restaurant in Town. This is their second location in Chino Hills. Original restaurant located in Buena park, well known by the local and I heard people drive distance to go there and be on a waiting list. Although, I haven't been to one in Buena Park, there were lot's of Buzzz and rumors about second new location that came in town. They were happy because they no longer need to drive distances. The restaurant did not disappoint. Services were Great. I personally loved all the dishes, although there were little differences among group of friends on their favorite dishes. Over all, they were all pleased with presentation of the side dishes on a golden medal plating with golden spoon & chopsticks, felt valued as customer. All the dishes were visually appetizing and tasted even better than expected. The portion for the value was Great too If I can 3 times within a week with different groups of people ... no need to say any further. Glad to see authentic Korean restaurant in town. Highly Recommend !!!

I love great new options in Chino Hills! Spicy raw crab is a must if you're not scared of the texture! I want to say it's the best in SoCal from it's freshness and flavor. Ooooh I still remember the taste. Imo it beats Master Ha and Crab House in ktown, but come out to IE and try it out yourself! Dumplings soup was great! And while their banchan is absolutely delicious (and a lot of great options), galbi tang is a bit more average. I'm not a fan of its slight sour taste but it won't stop me from coming back to try more! It's funny cuz the name gave me images of chandelier and stairs with ball gowns but the ambiance is closer to mom and pop Korean restaurant. Servers were attentive but they looked extremely busy and sometimes hard to flag down. Restaurant is located right next to Gen so parking could be tough on weekends. Overall great experience!

This place recently opened near Dog Haus and Jersey Mikes. I tried their single person order of bossam and doenjangjjigae ($31). It came with a small bowl of rice, either white or purple rice), and 6 banchan which they change daily. They had the usual kimchi, fishcakes, seaweed salad, beansprouts, and they had two different ones like a zucchini and a celery and mushroom banchan. The portions for the banchans were good. All were well seasoned, the napa cabbage kimchi was not too fresh, still had a bit of a crunch. The bossam which is boiled pork belly, served with fresh napa cabbage, lettuce, perilla leaves, sliced garlic and jalapenos with ssamjang, salted shrimp dip, and spicy radish kimchi. The bossam was thickly cut and moist, I would wrap a perilla leaf with the bossam dipped into the salted shrimp with a slice of garlic. The doenjang jjigae had a good amount of tofu, zucchini, and onions and the soup was not too salty. After a while, a lady came and gave me a small plate of their japchae to try and it was tasty. The staff is nice and they have a good amount of seating inside.

This place has quickly become one of my favorite spots for Korean food in Chino Hills! I recently tried the Cold Buckwheat Noodles (#17) and the Steamed Pork with Spicy Kimchi Stew (#53, subbed from Soybean Paste Stew), and I loved everything we ordered. The pork was tender, had great flavor, and went perfectly with the dipping sauces and banchans. You can really taste the quality in these traditional dishes. I've been craving bossam (boiled pork) for a while, so I was excited for a local place to offer it on the menu! Also, you'll quickly notice it's a fan favorite here - almost every table had an order of it. The cold buckwheat noodles were also excellent and exactly what I've been looking for. They'll give you mustard and vinegar on the side so you can adjust the flavor to your liking. My only wish is that they added some meat to the noodles, but they're still fantastic as is. On top of the amazing food, the service was exceptional. Every server who helped us was kind, attentive, and helpful. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes soon! Random fact, but I also found out that "Minduelle" means dandelion in Korean.

I'm so excited to know there's a new Korean place in town and came here for dinner. I ordered the combo kalbi with soybean paste stew and veggie wrap and also seafood scallion pancake. The kalbi has very good flavor and the soybean stew is very comforting, specifically on a cold night. I love their banchan, everything is very savory and not overly salty or spicy, can't stop eating their kimchi. The seafood pancake is filled with veggie and seafood, they don't skimp on the filling and the breading is light and the whole pancake is not oily at all, definitely a winner. The service is very attentive as well. I'd go back to try their other items on the menu, definitely a go to Korean place for dinner!

Wow! Welcome to the neighborhood Mindeulle!! I am so very glad this restaurant opened up! My visit here was just amazing! There was parking and no wait when I went. The service was very kind. Although there was a slight wait for the banchan and food, I won't knock this against them because it means your food is being made fresh! The kalguksu was flavorful and soothing, but I think I could pass on this whenever I come back. It's just very heavy and filling. It's good to order in bigger groups because it's nice to have a small bowl of. The gamjatang was tasty! I wish the bones had more meat on them, but other gamjatang places also serve similarly, so I guess maybe it's standard? I think the amount was good for three people. The braised cod was a highlight for sure! The flavors, omg, it was wonderful! I could eat that sauce with rice and be happy with just that. The cod does have lots of bones, so be careful when eating. The rice cakes were the PERFECT consistency and the right size. Everything was good, just slightly pricey. The bossam was nice! The pieces weren't too fatty. You can ask for sliced garlic on the side, I definitely did. I also love the banchan options. The kimchi was just ok, but my niece loved the japchae. Overall, I had a delicious experience and I will definitely be back!

You know a Korean restaurant is legit when every single table were full of elderly Korean people! I stopped by Mindeulle yesterday night (1/16) around 6pm for dinner. As I was still feeling under the weather, I wanted to eat some soup. The waiter provided great suggestions so I opted to get the spicy noodle soup. It was so delicious! The portion was huge and I have enough leftover to eat for tonight. It was definitely worth the price at $18.99. I saw there were comments about service but honestly I have no complaints. Our waiter was nice and another lady checked up on my table towards the end of our meal. She even packed my leftover food for me. Great experience overall. I'll be back soon!

Food was really good. Service was great too. My SIL and I was looking for something to eat around Chino Hills area. One of my favorite places around there is Young Dong but saw this place and decided to give it a try. We ordered the lunch size bossam and beef/cabbage stew. Was good and perfect for the two of us. Will be back to try more.

Food: 4.0 Service: 4.0 Ambiance: 3.5 Price: 3.0 This place is same owner as the one in Buena Park. I've been to the one in BP many times and am glad another location opened in Chino Hills. It's a solid traditional/homemade Korean made you can get from sit down restaurant. Food: I tried several dishes and some of them are hit or miss. For example, bean-paste soup is good and not watered down, whereas some od the noodles dishes were just ok. Nothing spectacular but enough to satisfy Korean food craving. I would suggest to explore the menu and pick your favorite. Side dishes are adequate in variety and of course, those side dishes are free-refill. Service: No complaint here. They are responsive and fast, though they can be slow if there are too many customers and that's totally expect it. Ambiance: a typical traditional sit down Korean restaurant. Nothing fancy but since it's relatively new, no complaint here. Price: I dinged them here because compare to price I'm used to in Buena Park several years ago, it has gone up considerably. Perhaps, not the restaurant's fault since it's macroeconomic reason they cant control. Still, it's a bit pricey imo for traditional/homemade Korean food. Bottom line, I would definitely come back and make it my regular spot to fix my Korean food craving.

Went to Chino Hills with friends over the weekend and discovered a hidden gem of an authentic Korean restaurant. They serve the same style of beef short rib stew as Sunnongdan, various beef bone soups and tofu soups, and even the spicy braised codfish stew! All the food was really delicious! Highly recommend

Came for an early dinner on a weekday and was seated right away. The inside is clean and spacious. Service was kind and prompt. Got the galbi tang and spicy pork/veggies/soybean soup combo. The galbi tang was definitely the best (seasoned perfectly with a good amount of fall off the bone galbi). The combo meal was also decent - soybean soup was average tho. Overall, would come back when craving Korean food since there aren't many options in the area!

Food was so delicious, we forgot to take a picture of the marinated crab before it was finished! First time trying this place out and it did not disappoint. Server was extremely attentive and so sweet, made sure we were ok and answered all our questions. Continued to check in on us in case we needed anything through out our meal. 10/10 would recommend!

Hands down one of the best Korean restaurants in Chino Hills! Every dish we ordered was delicious -- the soy crab and spicy crab were full of flavor, and the kimchi pork rib stew was rich and comforting. Loved the crispy seafood pancake too! The portions were generous and great for group dining. Super friendly service -- shoutout to the staff for being so welcoming and helpful! It's clean, cozy, and feels like a true Korean family kitchen. Highly recommend!

Really happy to have a quality Korean restaurant in my hometown. Every dish we tried was delicious. Soft tofu soup / soondubu, cold spicy mixed noodles / bibim nengmyun, octopus fried rice, and a stew - all had rich flavor. Service was friendly as well. They checked on us often and made us feel very welcome. The restaurant environment was nice and cozy. I will certainly be back and wouldn't hesitate to check this spot out for tasty Korean cuisine.

This restaurant is very cost-effective, and the portions are really big! The pork chop is bigger than the face, enough for 2 people. The perilla ginseng chicken soup is amazing, a whole chicken + glutinous rice, very nourishing ~ the cold noodles are chewy and refreshing, just right for summer. The taste is good, the portion is large, and the cost-effectiveness is also good. I recommend the white-cut meat, it's delicious

As a girly that used to live in the heart of ktown, unfortunately this was super mid. We were too spoiled with kfood and honestly, all Korean spots outside of ktown can't compare! I gave it a 4 because we were seated quickly and the food arrived in a timely manner. The ban Chan was basic but one did stand out to me, the sweet marinated potatoes, yum! The pancakes were a disappointment, I'm used to real seafood and this one was heavily lacking it. As for the bossam, the pork and radish was good, and the garlic was sliced too thick.

I ordered the spicy marinated crab, and the flavor was pretty authentic. The crab was fresh and well seasoned.

The seafood pancake was crispy on the outside, soft and packed with flavor on the inside. You could actually taste the fresh shrimp and squid, not just batter. Definitely one of the best I've had.

Mindeulle is a recent addition Chino Hills. They serve delicious and authentic Korean dishes. I have been here a couple of times and although they are often busy, their food has been consistently delicious with attentive service. The dish that stands out for me is their spicy raw marinated crab. I personally think it's better than that popular restaurant in LA Koreatown. It's great to have tasty Korean food locally in Chino Hills. Their spicy raw marinated crab is seasoned very well with lots of garlic, peppers, onions and a medium amount of heat. It's also a bit sweet and even with all the seasoning, you can taste the crab. It's so good that I can easily eat the whole order by myself and not share it with others. I'll definitely be back for the crab.

Food:5 service: 5 Ambiance: 5 My family n friends were shocked when we found out MDL was opening in our area!!! Just fantastic side dish and all the entrees are just same as before. They make everything in house. So tastes are different from others. I love their fish stews and bossam! Thank you for choosing Chino Hills for your 2nd location!!

Food is good. Service is good...a little stingy with their banchan refills though. Love that they make their banchans fresh daily, downside is no cucumber kimchi daily which is my favorite! Verdict on what I've tried: Steamed pork (bossam) + soybean paste soup: bossam is legit, soup was too salty Kalbi: marinade is good but tasted like it was cooked on a stove, not grilled Beef rib soup: flavorful, on the saltier side Dumpling and rice cake soup: decent Spicy braised pork ribs: good, wish it was more tender but the flavor is yummmm Seafood pancake: soggy, I would skip this one next time

My family decided to try this new Korean restaurant in Chino Hills. LOVED IT! The service staff is very friendly. There were 9 of us, 5 adults and 4 kids ages 7 to 11. We ordered kalbi, spicy pork, cold noodles, chive pancake, spicy tofu soup. The extra side dishes were yummy. The quality of the food was so awesome. There was no left overs. Very casual comfortable restaurant. Right there is no alcohol but they are in the process of acquiring their license. WE WILL RETURN. Thank you all for a wonderful dinner.

Visited with my mom and sister for the first time today and the staff were super friendly and helpful! I am a vegetarian and so it's often daunting trying to find a Korean restaurant with vegetarian options. The item I ordered initially was made with beef broth which I forgot to ask about. The server offered to replace the item with something else that was vegetarian friendly. With her help and the help of a group of sweet ladies seated next to us I was able to order something. The food was delicious, 10/10! And the kind staff made the experience there so much nicer. Will definitely be coming back!

Friday night at Mindeulle was a perfect choice for some hot soup on a cold night out. It's located in between Gen KBBQ and Snowy Village. We ordered the bossam (steamed pork) + soybean paste soup combo and Shane, who served us, recommended the Dumpling Hot Pot, which was a hit! The bossam comes lightly salted and was perfect with all the veggies it came with. For the hot pot, most Korean stews I've had are usually too salty for my preference, but this stew was perfectly seasoned and I was going for seconds and thirds. It also comes with vermicelli noodles on the side to add later. All the side dishes were on point and complimented every bite. Staff is attentive, friendly, and provided great service despite it being busy. Plenty of indoor seating and booths are roomy. They opened about two weeks ago so please show your support to this new business!

This new mindeulle restaurant in Chino Hills is the best Korean food and everything is new and super clean. The servers are very kind and excellent services. I already been this mindeulle restaurant twice and they change side dishes everyday with fresh Korean side dishes. My main manu was Dongtae hotpot (pollock fish hot pot) and soooo taste I will definitely come mindeulle restaurant more often with my family and friends.

I was there with my wife last night after she got off her work. We want to try something new and this Korean food spot showed up on our search. When we arrived around 6:30 pm it was packed so we input our name and waited for about 15 minutes before we were sit. The menu was extensive and was in English, Korean and Chinese. We ordered Monk Fish Soup, Octopus Hot-Stone Bibimbap and seafood & Green Onion Pancake. All tasted great with decent portion. During our meal, the owner and her son came by to the table and casually chat with us. This provided us a feeling that we were not just customers but a family friends, which definitely was a plus. The decoration of the location was bright and clean and had a nice family restaurant feeling. We really liked the location and will be back.

Really good It's owned by the same owner as the Buena Park location, and the new Chino branch is clean and just as delicious!

First, we used to love this place. The food was great, service was slow but food made up for it. Not sure what suddenly happened, but we had a party of 7. We ordered agu jjim(third time I've ordered this), nakji bokkum(first time trying this), and other dishes. They had about 60% full capacity. We sat down. Nothing. Had to ask for water. They took our order and told us their internet is not working so cash only. Inconvenient but not their fault. Waiting. Nearly 30 minutes after we sat down did we get ban Chan and that came out with our food. Usually ban Chan is first. I attached pictures of the two big dishes. Mind you these are about $50+ each dish. The agu jjim was flavorless. The nakji was full of vegetables but only a small amount of very tiny pieces of nakji. Almost nonexistent. The pictures are what we left. Basically the whole dish for both. We let them know and they tried the dish and agreed about the taste. They apologized and said next time they promise to make it better. I have also attached a picture of what I could see from my seat which I noticed towards the end. For these reasons I will not be coming back.
