I like the volume it served with affordable price, but personally I think it’s too salty. overall a nice place to try some Korean food.

They have both plates and bowls that you can customize! Lots of options! I wasn’t a huge fan of the silken tofu but not too bad!

I ordered the kobunga plate due to many recommendations here. However, what I got was completely different from what I see here. No big piece of pork(just small pieces), no sugar crust as advertised, pork tastes blend and noodle is too spicy

Prices are very high considering how small the portions were. I even ordered the extra protein. Staff was nice but food itself tasted just ok nothing stood out.

On the campus of USC, I visited a place called Kobunga. This place is not vegan, however it had MANY vegan options. The only thing that was not vegan was the meats. I had the Soft Tofu w/ Spicy Garlic Soy Sauce, 1/2 Brown Rice, 1/2 Japchae Noodles, Cucumber Kimchi Pickles & the Sautéed Corn. At first y’all, I saw that tofu and was like ehh but once I mixed the sauce and everything together it didn’t look too bad. When I took my first bite, I didn’t expect an explosion of flavors to dance all over my tongue naa. As this being my very 1st time EVER trying Korean styled food, I am well impressed. The customer service was just as pleasant as the food. My Overall Meal was a 10/10. Overall Experience 10/10. I recommend while visiting Los Angeles! Tell em Multiiee sent you when you go!!

I randomly google searched korean food and this one popped up. The parking in this area is usually horrifying but tonight wasn’t. I found a parking super close and was able to walk in with no problem. It’s what you expect a college restaurant to be.

The menu is simple and to the point with a $12 meal as the average. (Tip: It costs $2 more a plate, online. Just order in person.) Even though it was dead, my proteins were really hot. The “hot” sides were warm but the pickled sides my counter part had were delicious.

We also tried the Yuzu Lemonade. It’s one size and it’s delicious.

I think if the parking is easy enough, I would go back. It didn’t wow me with flavor but it was enough to warrant a second visit.

If you’re not familiar with Korean food, sometimes it’s not easy to know what to get or how to eat them. Kobunga really did an amazing job of putting together an approachable authentic Korean dish in a single platter with their own unique twist to it.
I got the pork belly dish with the napa cabbage kimchi and cabbage slaw. I never had such a tender and juicy pork belly. It was so soft that i didn’t even have to use a knife to cut through it, while keeping enough meat texture for the chew. At first I was slightly thrown off by the napa cabbage kimchi, which was slightly on the sweet side compared to what I’m used to, but it actually balanced the plate perfectly. It was fresh and refreshing. Then I stole a piece of of the cucumber kimchi which was also super refreshing and a good pairing with the meat heavy dish.
As for the quantity, it’s fairly substantial with a big portion of it being the meat. It’s not like chipotle where you are at the mercy of your server for the meat quantity. They just serve you beautifully cut thick slabs of the pork belly. Totally worth my $11. I wish I had one closer by because it’s a great meal and comforting food.

It does not taste authentic but it’s filling and good for value. The salad needs improvement as well.

Kobunga. Korean. Grill. Wow.
So far, I’ve only had the USC Special, which comes with:

Slow cooked short rib (slowly cooked to perfection, seasoned with a delicate sprinkle of love)

Soy pickles (A crisp & fresh crunch, with a subtle salty finish)

And last but not least, the Kimchi. (A tasty treat with a smooth ‘Kimchi Kick’!)

Well. I know a place where I’ll be frequenting more often!
Can’t wait to try the other treats!

Sincerely,
A deliciously satisfied customer.

(p.s. I forgot to mention, the short rib came prepared over a lovely bed of mixed greens, with a delicious vinaigrette!)

Highly reccomend!

Yummy Korean bbq ☺ I got the noodles with bulgogi, kimchi, and slaw. Bulgogi was great quality for the price!!!

I don’t know the cashier’s name but he was very very nice and walked us through the menu. Nice change of pace from the dining hall. Will be back again while I am here!
