This is our favorite Korean soup shop. Side dishes are phenomenal. Soups are great and the aunty there always greets you with a nice smile.

Affordable, best ban chan, great service! I got the galbi tang and loved it, will try the sullangtang or hangover soup next time. They have great deals posted, like a BOGO soup deal on Thursdays. Husband got the spicy beef soup which had a nice peppery kick. Really loved their ban chan though - very fresh. If you want purple rice, ask for it when ordering. There's a tea pot with barley tea in the back. Mom and pop shop so not as much seating, but feels very cozy! Bathrooms are clean. Parking lot in the front.

It’s good, not great. My ox knee bone soup had a lot of excess fat floating on top. I wish they filtered the excess fat in the soup because it definitely made broth taste more oily than milky. FYI, I am a picky soup connoisseur LOL because I grew up in asia and had many different types of soups for 3+ decades. My perfect ox knee bone soup is supposed to taste smooth, milky and collagen-y, not oily (you can see the yellow fat floating on top of my soup in pictures). The side dishes were okay, not the best kimchi i’ve ever had. The rice was too moist and soft for my liking. My friend liked his shiitake beef soup though! He said it was flavorful. Overall, my rating: Food: 3/5 Affordability: 5/5

Walked in on a sweltering day - 39 degrees Celsius! Greeted by lovely Korean aunties that recommended the spicy beef soup. It was delicious as was the banchan served with the meal. Cozy atmosphere and yummy food 👍

Definitely seems to be a favorite place by many old-timers in K-town as the flow of older gentlemen would just continue endlessly. Would recommend to those seeking early breakfast in the area with top notch attentive service, and the soup was good considering the early bird special price.

There are a few restaurants in Ktown that specialize in Sullungtang. In my opinion no one restaurant stands far above the others in terms of taste. However, SYTK definitely offers you the best bang for buck. I'm a world where eating out means spending $20 a person, this place offers our wallets relief. You will not find a better deal than here. I was so full that I couldn't even finish all my food. The sullungtang is very soul-warming and I would highly recommend. The Haejangguk is just as delicious. It's a slightly spicy, mushroom based soup with a lot of veggies and little bits of beef. The servers are also extremely kind and friendly. If you see the matriarch of the restaurant, a little old grandma, sitting at the register or at an empty table, be sure to say hi or bow to her after your meal. They must all be protected at all costs.

This cozy corner restaurant offers some wonderful side dishes, and the short ribs soup is quite tasty. I also enjoy the multi-grain rice they serve. However, it’s unfortunate that the air conditioner is out of order, as the open door invites in some flies while dining.

A small hole in the wall restaurant run by the sweetest lady! The ox bone soup is homey, comforting, and full of depth. It is nothing fancy, but it will warm your soul. The side dishes and green onions are unlimited. This was one of the best meals I had in LA! The pricing was also super affordable, under $14 a bowl. A huge perk is that there is free parking! The restaurant is located in a plaza with plenty of available spots.

Randomly came here for a quick and affordable meal and wow. It blew my mind! It is super duper homey and the staff are the SWEETEST. For $13.75 for my bowl, that is such a steal. It is a super small place so you may need to wait a bit during busy hours. I love that I can add my own salt and pepper to make it suit my taste. i would definitely come back as the soup was super good and i felt right at home.

My absolute favorite place for sul lung tang. I always look forward to eating here when I'm traveling towards the west side. The soup is just perfection. It is light, flavorful and so freaking healthy. The banchan is also really top notch and trust me, I judge a place by the banchan. CLASSIC OX BONE SOUP now increased a tiny bit to $13.47 which is a crazy deal!!!! The older lady is super kind and sweet. She's not always here but when she is, it feels like home. I add salt but my friends don't. I really think you need ti add some to bring out the flavors and a ton of the green onions which are nice and mild. Parking lot is medium small, street parking available too.

This is my to go sullungtang place lately. Their early hour menu is very affordable and they have the best side dishes. Everytime I come they have different side dishes and their service is very polite and always fill gourmet side dishes without you asking. Very clean and great food

Yes, come here for the first meal of the day. End of conversation, thank you. just kidding, hear me out. I highly recommend this place as it has the best value, really good service, and the food just hits the spot. Whether you need a hangover cure or you are just craving sul lung tang, this is the place to come. Their value is unbeatable in this area. It is a hole in the wall spot with maybe around 30 seats inside, but parking is free. Their broth is rich and comes out boiling hot. They give you cut up scallions, salt, pepper for you to add. Their side dishes (banchan) are really good especially their raddish. They have different banchan every now and then. They have specials every single day from 7 am to 10 am, $10.96 plus tax for a bowl of sul lung tang. They also do take out. Awesome place. 100% recommend.

Oh my gosh that was maybe the best meal I've had in my life and I wouldn't consider myself a foodie like that. We came here on a Tuesday night around 8PM and got parking easily and were seated right away. There are two women running the place who don't speak English very well but are very kind and attentive. The restaurant is nothing fancy inside but the food is spectacular. We ordered the haejangguk and galbitang and I actually finished my soup all the way down to the last drop. I highly recommend visiting this spot. It is so. Good. And quite underrated in Koreatown!

Highly recommend this place not just for the food but for the service! I think this is a hole in the wall spot, but the staff/owners are so nice and friendly and kept checking in on us and making sure we liked her food. The quality of the oxtail broth is really good and also very affordable. It's the perfect comfort food on a cold winter night. Portions are standard and they have salt and unlimited green onions for you. Definitely will be coming back

Their sullungtang is literally the best! I can't believe I haven't been here till now! Very easy parking on the street and at this lot. Very good breakfast deal between 7am-10am as well. All the side dishes are also very good!

I usually order Korean soup once a week, so I decided to try this new spot on UberEats. When the food arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to find two sets of banchan, which is rare--most places only give one, even if you order two soups. The seolleongtang had a rich, comforting flavor, though I wish it had a bit more garlic flavor. The galbitang had a decent amount of meat, but I missed the vinegar onion sauce on the side for that extra flavor burst. What I will say though is that this place has the best radish kimchi in town!!

Food was delicious!! Ambience felt cozy and home-like. It felt very comforting being served food by the adjummas running the place. Side dishes tasted fresh and there was no wait when we arrived there at 8:30pm on a Monday night. Parking is free and ample. Would come here again if I ever wanted comfort food and was in the Koreatown area again. They served this hot rice drink as well.

Delicious and economical! We ordered the classic ox bone soup and hangover soup, it came with 5 or so banchans. A very satisfying and hearty breakfast for the chilly mornings. We arrived at about 8:30am on a Sunday and the restaurant was already 80% full. The service was efficient and friendly. They also offer take outs. It's definitely worth the drive, if you're craving a hot and healthy breakfast. Highly recommend this place! Free parking in the strip mall area.

I really wanted to give this place 3.7 stars but didn't feel it was special enough to give it 4 stars. That being said. Their soups were hearty and delish. Hold on to your stomachs when I tell you I had the stomach stew. Delish. I love all the weird stuff except chicken feet. Can't get past the nails. That is not served here thank goddess! That being said if you want to fill up on warm bone broth stews instead of donuts for breakfast come here. So many locals do. The place was packed at 10am with fashionable ajumma's (aunties) and ajoshis (uncles) who know what's good in the K hood. FYI don't let the lack of decor prevent you from trying something new. Ciao mein till the next bite!

We dropped by for a classic soup and rice breakfast at around 9am on a Saturday, and a few people definitely had the same idea. They have a Good Morning Special everyday from 7-10am, so we tried out their seollungtang and haejangguk. They had a few side dishes, including kimchi, radish kimchi, seasoned beansprouts, and pickled Korean peppers when we were there. We wished the kimchi had been fermented a bit longer - it seemed like someone had just made it recently, so the flavor wasn't fully there yet. The radish kimchi was a little on the sweeter side. The beansprouts were well seasoned, and the peppers were solid, too. Now, for the mains: -Seollungtang: the ox bone soup was tasty! The meat wasn't super super soft, but it was soft enough for me. There were some noodles in there, too. They brought out a container of green onion, and there is salt in a small container on the table to add to your liking. It was comforting and definitely something we'd get again. This broth was super satisfying. -Haejangguk: there's a clear mushroom presence in the flavor, along with the beef, napa cabbage, and beansprouts. We really enjoyed the veggies in this one. The meat in this wasn't super tender, but the soup was decent. Finally, they had a free shared lot with a decent number of open spots (at least at that time of morning!), which is always nice when you're in Ktown. Overall, we will definitely be back when we have another seollungtang craving or if we want another bre

Love this place! We went for sullungtang, they had a morning special for less than $11. They had a variety of Banchan, or side dishes, more than regular sullingtang places. Sulluntang had plenty of meat, service was excellent. Definitely coming back!

SYTK Sullungtang is somewhat of a hidden gem, but a gem nonetheless. You know a Korean restaurant is truly authentic and good when it's filled with ahjusshis and ajjumas as early as 7AM on a weekday. TIP-They offer a "Good Morning Special" from 7-10AM daily! Only $10.96 (plus tax) for select bestselling items. [Ambiance] As soon as you walk in, you'll be greeted by the staff. The day I visited, there were two women out front. Both were extremely hardworking, attentive and friendly. They speak Korean and English! All are welcome. Plenty of seating, super homey place. [Food] As soon as you're seated, you're given a warm cup of tea. In a couple of minutes, you'll also be provided several delicious banchans and rice. My favorite banchan was the radish kimchi! A must when eating gukbap. I ordered the regular sullangtang, and it was precisely what I needed after a red the flight to LA. The broth was rich and milky. I could taste that the broth was made from steeping bones for hours, no indication of any shortcuts. Be careful! It's super hot and stays hot for the course of your whole meal. [Service] The service is what brought my review to a definitive 5-stars. Everyone works hard. One woman in particular caught my attention because she was running around, tending to every request/need with a smile. Please be sure to tip these hardworking employees! The food is fairly priced, and they deserve the love! Highly recommend SYTK! If I'm ever back in LA, I'll be sure to stop by.

This was the closest sullungtang to my area so I decided to give it a try. The interior is very small but reminds me of those homely restaurants in Korea. I ordered their original sullungtang which arrived within 7 minutes of ordering. The soup broth was very flavorful and clear. I could taste the ox bone flavor while not being overwhelming. I liked being able to add however much scallions as I wanted since I love eating lots of scallions in my soups. The side dishes were also pretty tasty and I especially liked the fermented sour kimchi. The slices of beef inside the soup were thin but still tasty. Overall, I would have given this place a 4/5 stars because they are decent. What makes me give this place a 5 star is their cheap cost. My meal after tax and tips was about $16, which is cheaper than a bowl of sullungtang anywhere else. This is like the in n out of korean beef soups. Tastes good and tastes even better because it's not expensive.

This place exceeded expectations in every way. It's a small mom and pop restaurant with a homey atmosphere. Everything was so on point - the food, hospitality, and overall value for the meal. Even parking was easy in their free lot. We got the galbitang and haejangguk, and man did that galbitang have a lot of short rib! The banchan was delicious and she even came around with an extra acorn jelly banchan in the middle of our meal. You can get either white or purple rice, and we both opted for the latter. Just fyi it comes with other beans and grains, so it's not just the purple rice alone. Eating out is getting so expensive these days, so finding a place that's generous with their portions and banchan options are hard to find. The ladies were super inviting and friendly as well, they really took good care of us. Can't say enough high praises, and will absolutely be back soon!

I came here with my dad for yesterday's brunch, but forgot to check in; everything happened so fast. He had wanted this Korean soup place for brunch. I've never been here before; he said he used to come here often after his appointments. I've passed by many times before and wondered what they served. The ladies recognized him immediately when we went inside and we got seated right away. I've noticed there were a few older gentlemen, around my dad's age who came here to dine alone. My dad had the short ribs soup, which had about 4-5 ribs with meat attached. I had the spicy yukgaejang, but it wasn't as spicy as other places I've had this but it still had a good flavor base. They didn't put as much leek and shredded meat strips, say comparable to SunNongDan, but it was good. I think they gave more side dishes than some places and they were all decently delicious. I think we finished about four sides. We didn't have to ask for more, the lady automatically checked our table and saw the bowl empty and got us more of the sides that were empty. And this place gave a lukewarm tea instead of the ice water, which I thought was good for a change and for the Fall weather that's upon us, and even my dad liked the tea very much. My dad cleaned his bowl of soup. I knew I couldn't finish it so I had asked for a container beforehand to ladle half of it to eat later on. It was a good portion and the service was very attentive and great. I would give 5 stars for the service, 5 stars for the delicious soups!! Thanks SYTK Sullungtang for an exceptional service and cooking up some of the most delicious soups!!

This place still hits the spot! I came here after class today even though it was 20 minutes for a few miles but it was so worth it. I got the mix sullungtang today again and it was so good! The broth is so rich and comes piping hot and the portions are generous. The meat is so clean and nothing beats the homey-ness of this type of soup. The banchan is ok(my favorite is the bean sprouts) but the soup remains the star of the show. The service here is so kind as well and I will be back!

SYTK Sullungtang is definitely a good spot to go to when I am craving Korean soups! Small little spot but legit Korean food. FAVE ITEMS: - Sullungtang: really good flavor. You add the amount of salt you want to it. Comes with a good amount of meat as well. - Bulgogi: this was a tad bit sweet and good to share but I would probably get tired of it if I had to only eat this dish by itself. - Banchans: good variety and flavor PARKING: in a plaza, so pretty convenient. PRICE: pretty reasonably priced, on the cheaper side compared to other LA spots. Overall, I'd definitely come back! Service was prompt - the waitress was really nice and came to refill our banchans before we even asked. Highly recommend!

What can I say the food was an Amazing surprise! Super awesome sides, Korean style, with delicious kimchi offerings. Very reasonable and filling lunch that doesn't leave you feeling unhealthy. I got a beef Bulgogi and the flavors were delicious of sweetness with a little bit of spice. It was everything I was hoping for. The service is super friendly. The owners are there and we're very grateful for my business and that of all of the other folks there. Extremely casual, super clean, and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend you make a stop next time you're in Koreatown!

Came here for lunch on a cold day and it really hit the spot. This is my second time here and I enjoyed each meal. First time I came here I got the classic ox bone soup. That's definitely a tried and true reliable item. This time though I opted for the short rib beef soup The amount of short rib in the soup is generous. I was actually surprised by how much beef was in there. The beef of course was juicy and tender. The soups tasted clean and warmed me up. The ladies running the restaurant were super sweet and accommodating. They made good convo and always made sure the side dishes were filled.

Came here on Thanksgiving morning at 10:30am! We just drove from NorCal. We loved Han Bat, but heard the prices gone up and wait is long, so we hit up a different spot. Parking was fine, but can see it busy during peak hours. Seems like they do a lot of to go orders. Service was so sweet and nice. Love the simplicity of menu, everything we ordered was delicious and affordable. Allen got the Galbitang in addition to Sullungtang. Would definitely come here again. Side dishes delicious too, though we didn't get the same stuff as the other tables...

I highly recommend the Shitake Beef Haejangguk. I never thought I'd leave a Google review for this soup. I rarely eat this soup. Maybe once every couple of years. But I will make an exception at this place. I am a meat eater. I only ordered this because this was the cheapest dish on the menu, and my family wanted to eat at this place. I'm so glad for having the chance to eat here. This 해장국 soup is just different. My family member is sensitive to MSG, but she experiences no side effects eating this healthy dish. This soup has resolved my indigestion too. It tasted so good that I got a to go box for the soup. And I NEVER take food to go because I hate plastic containers. Also, great value. Pictured here $14 dish. Very fair. I'm 100% going back and bringing friends.

Sullungtang always hits the spot when you are in need of recovery, but it is always good in general! We ordered the classic ox bone soup and short rib soup, the former is sulluntang. The ox bone soup requires you to add salt and pepper to your liking, while the short rib soup can be enjoyed as is. Both come with noodle, with the short rib soup having the glass noodles. As usual, you also get banchan ranging from radish kimchi to fish cake, all of which hit the spot. Ox bone soup is very soothing and subtle in flavor. You can also request green onion to add, which we did, to further enhance the flavor. The meat is not as tender. Short rib soup comes with 4 pieces of bone with meat plus a bunch of meat pieces, so it is fairly substantial. The meat here is very tender. It can even be enjoyed with the soy sauce + wasabi dip that they give to you. Service is amazing as they fulfill your requests quickly and ensure you have a positive dining experience.

SYTK Sullungtang - Short beef rib soup ($16.45) - Classic ox bone soup ($12.33) Fire hangover meal I always crave warm soup after a long night of drinking so this was extra delicious. I've seen this place on my fyp several times so I'm glad I gave it a try. The lady working there was so nice, mom vibes AF The prices are so affordable and given the portion size IT'S A STEAL. The broth was rich in flavor I like how they give you salt, black pepper, and green onions to season the soup yourself cause I hate overly salty food. Next time, I'd probably order a side of glass noodles because I had like 2 noodles in my bowl

I hope and pray that this business thrives, because the food was so tasty and they have the nicest ajummas working here. Somehow, the price is even less than what we used to pay at our fav seolleongtang place in Dallas?? But I'm not complaining because I loved everything from the variety of banchans and their purple rice and the portion of meat in their soup. It was a bit toasty in the restaurant but it was quite hot out today too. It did make me a bit sad that there were only us and another couple at the restaurant. I guess we did go at an odd time? (2 more ppl joined after). The ladies working here were so sweet, they'd check in on us and made sure we had enough banchan. I do wanna try other seolleongtang restaurants in the area, but we will definitely be back for more tasty meals here :)

This is now our go-to sullungtang spot!! The prices are so much more affordable, portions are so big, and the servers are sooo friendly! The banchan is also sooo good (we loved the Mac salad and ate like 6 plates of ggakdugi ) Highly highly recommend Sullungtang (classic $12.33, mixed $15.53) - you can't beat these prices, and it was soooo good!! The broth was so refreshing and they gave a lot of meat + tripe if you get the mixed kind, plus noodles. It was a tiny bit over cooked but we can't complain bc it was still delicious and we will be back! Bibimbap ($17.35) - this is a new item and was good standard bibimbap. they give you a lot of veggies (pictured is without the rice) so honestly could give you two servings! Solid bibimbap if you're craving it Instagram - @joangela.eats

My new favorite place to get sullungtang! First of all, you know, a great place in ktown by their quality in banchan! I didn't mean to, but we almost had four servings of their Kimchi because it was that good! Make sure to get the knee oxtail soup if you're a fan of the jelly collagen part of the beef! The service he is amazing and super friendly I love supporting Korean small businesses! Would definitely recommend! There is limited parking in the front, but their side parking on the street! Hope you give it a try

The 표고 우거지 해장국 is amazing. It's a hangover soup (해장국 haejanggook) made with shiitake mushrooms(표고버섯 pyogo buh sut), the outside leaves of cabbage (우거지 woo guh jee). I often travel to Korea and love to eat at the many specialty soup restaurants when I'm there. The depth of their broth and harmony of ingredients are always a delight. SYTK provides the same exact experience! It's like I'm in Korea. The food was so good I was in a stupor. I was using all my energy to focus on the flavors and literally could not think straight. Now I'm sitting in my car in front of the restaurant typing out this review in my phone! We cannot lose this treasure! Please come visit and make them very successful.

Experience: I came here on a Sunday, right before the dinner rush. Small little place that we just happened to fall upon because of google maps. Food: I ordered the hangover soup, haejanggook with shitake mushroom, cabbage, and beef. It came with rice and pickled veggies( kimchi, radish, eggplant, bean sprouts, tofu skin, cucumber, some other veggies I don't know the name of). Barley tea and water were also provided. It was such a wonderful mean, everything was super tasty and the servings were generous. Service: Our server was so kind and nice. She was patient and took her time to translate the foods I didn't understand. Very friendly with seconds. Parking: There were only 3 cars in the lot when I arrived. Verdict: Very good and tasty, I recommend it.

i LOVE this place. the service is great and quick, and the staff is so nice. they're more comfortable speaking korean, but they still speak english and they speak very kindly and try their best :) i honestly prefer this place over hanbat. even though i love hanbat too, the wait and the environment is a little chaotic. sytk feels a little more comfortable. the banchan they give is amazing and has more variety as well. i especially loved their kkakdugi. the soup itself is rich and the meat is good as well. i feel like it was the perfect amount for me. i think hanbat has a little more meat, but as someone who likes less meat, this was perfect. the price is amazing. the total before tip came to $29 for two people! i'd say it is more worth it than hanbat in that sense.

This Location had very kind staff and were very accommodating to us. We really enjoyed how the menu was super simple and didn't have too many options. Because of this, they are able to make their simple options very well. I recommend this location if you want to get something really clean, light and not too salty. The Ox Bone Beef Soup is one of the best sellers here and the flavors and aromas of the soup definitely hit the heart strings. The side dishes here are pretty crisp, fresh and light as well! You can tell it's a good testament to a Korean Restaurant because the KimChi here was fermented very well and super fresh! I would definitely come here for a light and healthy lunch or If I need some hearty soup on a cold and rainy night!

SYTK Sullungtang is tucked in a small strip mall which has parking out front. The interior is small and cozy and the waitress was so sweet! She kindly greeted us and was very attentive and quick too. I visited with 2 friends and we all ordered the original sullungtang (ox bone soup). The soups came with a variety of delicious side dishes, green onions, and salt + pepper that you can add to your soup. The broth tasted clean, savory, and soothing! This is now one of my favorite places to eat sullungtang in Koreatown!

My friends and I all ordered the same classic ox bone soup - no regrets. It was the perfect ambiance at 9pm on a Wednesday evening; we had just finished at the spa nearby and wanted a light, wholesome meal to continue nourishing our bodies. There were other customers, but seats available so we didn't have to wait. The service was extremely friendly, and quick. The banchan was so wonderful it had to be refilled. This is a place I would bring friends visiting LA who would want a light meal in Ktown. Very pleasant service, scrumptious food, and clean restaurant! You can tell a lot of time and effort goes into making this place stand out among so many other Korean restaurants. PLUS: the free parking!!

Came around 5:15PM on a weekend, empty except for one table, parking lot was shared with other places in the plaza and quite full but we found a spot. Got the original pork bone soup, had a few pieces of meat and some noodles, came with a bowl of rice, and 4 banchans: kimchi, radish, potato, and seaweed. Bone soup was just alright, not super flavorful, meat was pretty average as well. Portions were fine, was about $15 post-tax which is alright for what it was I guess!

the highlights: - good banchan, and they even gave us 2 extra, a potato salad and acorn jelly - good prices for soup, and a good variety of soups, from haejanggook (hangover beef soup which has veggies, beansprouts), chicken soup, seolleongtang (oxtail soup), as well as others. - no wait when we went, vs like hanbat on a busy day
