MG Tofu House (명가순두부) — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Unacceptable Gender Discrimination

I had a terrible experience at this restaurant today. My husband and I ordered the same dish, but I got a much smaller portion just because I’m a woman. This is clear gender discrimination.

This happened before too. Today I saw the server put the smaller portion in front of my husband first, then move it to me on purpose. When I asked if this was the normal amount, the server said, “Women get smaller portions. All the other women get the same amount,” and offered to bring me more. She didn’t even say sorry.

Throughout our meal, the server checked on other tables multiple times, asking if they needed anything, but completely ignored our table after that interaction.

This treatment is shocking, especially in Los Angeles in 2025. If women are expected to eat less, should we pay less too? We paid the same price but received discriminatory service based solely on my gender.

This has never happened before. , I think we ate stale food, and now we are very weak due to excessive diarrhea and vomiting. We have not eaten other food since then, which has affected our health and work. I hope the owner of the store will pay attention to this food safety issue. I hope other guests won't suffer from vomiting or diarrhea after eating the...

MG Tofu House satisfied my hunger. After walking around Little Tokyo looking for a spot for sushi, I ended up at MG Tofu House. The restaurant is your typical Korean Tofu House with meat and soon tofu combo but MG Tofu House’s Galbi was pretty good. It was nicely marinated and tender. I chose the assorted soon tofu which has beef and seafood, medium spice, but it had no spice at all. It was still good but it could have used a little bit of a kick. The banchan was minimal, which was fine because I tend to spoil my appetite on them. Overall I enjoy MJ Tofu House. The food was tasty and it was...
