Olympic Noodle — Restaurant in Los Angeles

I heard about this place from family and friends for its food. How good it was and etc. So I ordered a take out chicken kalgooksoo and steamed dumplings. The dumplings were good that s why I didn’t put 1 star. The reason I put 2 star is the noodle was good but not the way they do business. Like so many other Korean restaurants such as Kang Nam who is nearly cross the street from the restaurant. Tariff hasn’t kicked in yet they do business as if it has. For example I counted the number of shredded chicken pieces on the noodle it was about 8 and was about 3 inches long. Yes I measured it. I split this with my family the noodles were overwhelmingly plentiful but not the chicken. To charge 16.99 for the noodles is unconscionable when there is so little chicken. This practice is very pervasive in k town now. I’m very ashamed of my country business men and women. Who are they taking advantage of? the customers are mainly their own country men and women, Koreans. Are there any more morale left in this town? I boycott eating out in Korea town restaurants like that since there are other k town restaurants who are not taking advantage of Koreans. Those are the ones I will be going to. I will be cooking more at home. I also how elderlies can afford this trend and stay...

Mother’s Day take out order. Red bean porridge. Simple enough. Picked up food, delivered to mother’s, and drove back home to wife, the other mother.

Mother calls and says she got Galbi tang and had already called restaurant about wrong order and employee asked to come pick up the correct order.

Arrive to pick up correct order and three employees including owner scolds my wife for not bringing wrong order. Mind you, we weren’t asked to bring it and mother’s house is 30 minutes away, one way. Employees begin to lecture my wife and she comes out pissed because they want to charge us the wrong order to pick up the correct order. They stand their ground and want us to bring the wrong order the next day. What the freak.

I go in and handle the situation. Unnecessary stress....

This is my go to place for kalguksu! Do you want I know a to-go secret? If you like to take you’re food to-go but don’t like how the noodles get mushy by the time you get home, then this is for you. I live about 30 minutes away from ktown so I’m so glad they do this. You can order the knife cut noodle soup with uncooked noodles!!! When it order the kalguksu you ask for “sseng” chicken kalguksu. They give you two big containers of soup, uncooked noodles, veggies and chicken in separate containers or bags. Once you get home, boil the soup, then put in the other ingredients. It’s freaking delicious and easy. The food is enough for two adults so if you’re eating alone,...
