I ordered Liu San Si(dish with sea cucumber, shrimps, scalop and some vegies) to go. It costs $30 and I know it is a bit expensive for one dish but the ingredients are expensive so I understand it. The to-go plastic bag usually has a styrofoam container for food and wrapped chopsticks with napkins, and two sets of paper boxes one for sliced raw onions and black sauce, another for chinese version of korean kimchi. The onion slices, I counted as 4 pieces, were thin and dry with no juice. Onion slices are supposed to be at least half full of the box and thicker and juicier. The stirred roasted Liu San Si had too much oil in it and a few small shrimp in the food tasted just bland as if they were previously boiled for soup base for other food and then later added to this dish. This restaurant has been at the place almost half a decade and known for cheaper price for older generations. I order lunches from this place durning the weekdays for a cheaper grap of lunch meal because it is located near to my office. This rather pricier meal was totally waste of money and really disappointed by their quality control. I will not order any dishes over $15 from this restaurant because this place is for cheap lunches only. Just cross the street of Olympic bl, you can find Shin Bei Jing chinese restaurant or near Olympic and vermont ave you also can find Dragon Palace Chinese restaurant, both of which also has been there more than half a decade, and better quality food and...
Read moreYoung King is my favorite Chinese Korean spot. Once you call your order in, it is ready to pick up really quickly, like around 10-15min.
They were only take out during the pandemic. When I went to pick up my food again, they are open for in dining. It is quite nice to see lots of people enjoying the food because I want Young King to be here for a long time for my cravings.
I always get the jjajangmyun and tangsooyoo. Tangsooyoo is available in either beef or pork. I personally think the pork taste better and that makes sense since it is originally a dish made out of pork. The tangsooyoo batter is so light, airy, but also the perfect amount of crunch. The jjajangmyun is perfect. The sauce has the perfect amount of veggies and meat to sauce ratio. The noodles are authentic think jjajangmyun noodles.
If you order take out, they package everything separately to keep things tasting perfect when you eat at home. The tangsooyoo is not closed all the way and taped to keep it crunchy on the drive home.
I also notice the staff speaks Korean and Chinese. So this place is legit.
I wish I took pictures but everytime I order my food here I can't wait and just...
Read moreThis restaurant has awesome food and excellent service. My favorite dishes are the fried shrimp with the thick, spicy garlic sauce; their Mongolian beef is just so flavorful with the perfect amount of seasoning and green onions; and lastly but definitely not least, is their fried chicken with the same spicy, garlic sauce as the aforementioned fried shrimp. This dish is just as good too. These, to me, are their stand-out entrees that you would be hard-pressed to find at any other Korean-Chinese restaurant. You will not regret coming to visit this place especially since their other dishes, including their noodles and fried rice are so, so good. The best time of the day to visit is between noon and 5pm because there is usually a wait if you visit around dinner time. The price of the food is so worth it when it comes to the flavor and taste as well the service that...
