"Wahl captures sizzling rounds of thinly sliced pork belly at Origin BBQ in Koreatown." - Matthew Kang
"Origin Korean BBQ takes over the previous Baekjeong space in a revamped, high-energy dining room. The restaurant’s Special Set offers the best deal on most premium cuts, including garlic-seasoned prime short rib, marinated prime short rib patties, and prime thin pork belly, all of which are prepared over a smoky grill at the center. The complementary corn cheese and steamed egg are must-try sides, and don’t skip on the house brisket soybean paste hot pot with ramen at the end of the meal. Wash it all down with the sikhye slush, an icy, refreshing fermented drink made from rice and malt. — Cathy Park" - Cathy Park
"Origin introduced a new lunch menu priced at $24.99 per person, featuring proteins like yukhoe, spicy marinated raw crab, and grilled bulgogi, served with kimchi or soybean stew and a full spread of banchan." - Rebecca Roland
