LA Ktown | TOKKI

This restaurant is located in the busiest part of Ktown! 🏙️ It’s surrounded by many spots I’ve visited before—like Quarters, Louders, Melo Melo, and the student favorite Sun Nong Dan—but I only recently discovered TOKKI and decided to give it a try. 🧐 The interior is dimly lit, with black-and-white anime projected on the walls. The music is pretty loud, and the chatter from other tables makes it feel more like a bar. 🎵🍻 If you prefer a quieter vibe, maybe consider takeout—but the food is definitely tasty! 😋 We ordered a bunch of their popular dishes: 🍞 Uni Toast The toast is topped with cucumber slices and a generous portion of sea urchin. The uni wasn’t fishy but leaned a bit salty. It’s cut into three pieces—I only had one, and when my friend suggested ordering another round, I passed. 🚫 Good for a light try, but not worth over-ordering. 🌹 Rose Tteokbokki Saw rave reviews saying it’s great with rice—and they were right! Probably the highlight of the meal. 🥘✨ Totally different from traditional spicy rice cakes, but the flavor really suits the Asian palate. I even checked Uber Eats later to see if they delivered…sadly, they don’t. 😢 🍚 Kimchi Fried Rice Pretty standard—not much different from other places. 🐄 Dea-chang Over Rice Beef intestines with quite a bit of fat—not really my thing, but edible with rice. The rice helps cut the greasiness. I usually love pork intestines, but after trying a popular Korean spot with super fatty beef intestines…let’s just say it wasn’t for me. 🥴 🍗 Hot & Sweet Chicken Spicier than typical fried chicken, with less noticeable sweetness—but still tasty. (Then again, it’s hard to go wrong with fried chicken, right?) 😅 We originally wanted the Hokkaido Scallops, but they weren’t available that day. We got the dish in the third photo instead…and it was not good. Not good at all. 👎 Have you been to TOKKI? What did you think—any dishes you’d recommend? Or is there another Ktown spot you love?
