Shout out to the person working at Old Style Guitars who recommended this place. It’s walking distance from Gold Diggers and Hollywood Forever (both great concert venues), and honestly some of the best eggplant I’ve ever had.
The menu is simple and straightforward, with one vegan/vegetarian option. The tofu and eggplant bowl was insanely delicious. Huge portions, very reasonable price, and piping hot and fresh.
I walked there and ordered from the cashier, and it was a ten minute wait for food. You can order online in advance for pick up from their website, and it seems like they do a ton of delivery.
They gave me napkins, a fork, and soy sauce and sriracha packets, but I didn’t need them because it was seasoned and flavored perfectly. The tofu was melt in your mouth soft, not chewy at all, my favorite way of eating it. The in house pickled veggies were so good, and balanced the flavors in the dish. There were cashews for a crunch, and some onions and bok choy, all on a bed of fluffy white rice.
I know LA has a ton of places to eat but I would definitely come back just for this bowl.
After the rest of my group saw and smelled what I was eating, they all went to go order from there themselves and agreed it...
Read moreBlack Pepper Chicken Bowl / marinated chicken, bok choy, bell peppers, cabbage, onion, crispy chips, house-made pickles. - 5 stars!
There are three BBQ+Rice locations in the general Hollywood area and this is my review of their third location. I am a big fan of these guys. They serve very tasty, very filling, very price conscious Korean inspired bowls and sides.
I tried the black pepper chicken this time and again, was super happy with my meal. I am a big fan of eating food as fresh as I can get it, so I had my meal in their nice little dining room. This location seems to have the best seating options and easy parking so I might focus on this one for return visits.
As LA slowly gets more expensive (just like everywhere I guess), it is really nice to have affordable options that are filling and lean towards the healthier side of the value meal specturm.
I think they may be opening a new location soon. One of the owners mentioned a 4th space. I'm happy for them. They deserve their...
Read moreI was heading home from work when my roommate asked me to stop at a store, I happened to pull into the 7/11 next to this place and I thought, “might as well order some carry-out while I shop.” I really wasn’t expecting much but this place hit it out of the ball park. Nice simple menu, cheap prices and big portions. They even finished my order before I was done shopping and handed it off to me on my way...
