LA Area / Irvine|Classic Korean Spot—A True Neighborhood Go-To! 🥘😍
This is one of Irvine’s longtime favorites—a true neighborhood staple! According to my local friends, it’s their reliable canteen, whether for dine-in or takeout. Can’t decide what to eat? Just come here! 【Korean Pork Cutlet Rice Bowl】 The pork cutlet is literally bigger than my face—about six fists wide! 😂 With unlimited refillable banchan, this dish alone could easily feed two. The cutlet is juicy, tender, and flavorful! 【Galbitang (Beef Short Rib Soup)】 A clear, comforting broth—perfect for a chilly day. It feels like wrapping yourself in a warm blanket! 🍲 Light yet rich, served with a tangy radish dipping sauce that adds a lovely contrast. 【Beef Knee Bone Soup】 Rivals Hanbat’s version but more affordable and generous! Packed with meat, noodles, and options like brisket, beef belly, intestine, or mixed cuts. 【Spicy Braised Beef with Cheese】 Ever since trying Sun Nong Dan, I order this dish everywhere—and Yigah nails it! Meat is the star here, generously portioned with big bones. Once the cheese melts, it’s irresistibly gooey and delicious, never too heavy. Respect to any spot that gets this right! 🧀 Yigah Restaurant 2750 Alton Pkwy, Irvine, CA 92606 #FoodChallenge #LALife #KoreanFood #LAEats #Irvine #IrvineLife #HiddenGem #IrvineFood
