There’s a weekday lunch special for 12.99 with different item each day. Today was beef soup with clear noodles. Rice was just how I like it, firm and not soggy or mushy. Self service banchan/side dishes and water station. You also pick up your food when the food is ready and they’ll call your number. Felt like a station at a food court inside a mall, which is fine, especially if it keeps prices reasonable.

I came here with a friend during the weekend and it was a great experience. It was fairly busy but the food, service, and cleanliness were great. I really appreciated their self serve side bar and highly recommend the beef plates. I’ll definitely be coming back if I’m in the area.

Stopped here while travelling in California! Food was delicious, portions were huge and the banchan itself is 5 stars!! Service was fast, and the woman working the register was very friendly! I got the Jjambbong, and my boyfriend got the bibimbap. Amazing food, and will be coming here again next time I am in the area!

Overall the food is very good and self service banchan bar is awesome. Items not always being available and some not being as incredible as I remember is te only thing keeping me from returning to 5 stars. Kalbi was a bit of a let down again as well, but other dishes were all very good, line the tofu soup and jajiangmien.

Definitely still recommending this place but had to round down based on my latest visit.

Two dishes that didn’t live up to my last visit were the cold noodles and Kalbi ribs. The cold noodles had a different flavor and texture to the broth. Good, just not as good as I recall. Not a deal breaker. The Kalbi ribs were even more disappointing. Fatty and chewy.

On the positive side, the two new dishes we tried were awesome. Jjajang mien, which was sold out las time was amazing. Great flavors, actually had meat which some places stopped adding, and was a very large serving. No wonder they sell out! Also tried the soon tofu soup which was equally amazing in flavors, meat ratio and portion size. Definitely must tries.

Service and self service banchan was still great. Almost makes up for the self service pick up and clean up 🙂
—————-

Probably more 4.5 stars, but will round up until I can try them again and see how consistent they are.

The good:
Service is very friendly and helpful
Self serve banchan bar – love that you don’t have to wait, but it is hard not to fill up too much as they were all very good.
Food food food!
Cold noodles – some great flavors and huge servings
Galbi jim – again, great broth and lots of lean meat
Kalbi – add as a combo and save some money. Delicious and much less fatty than many other places nearby
Purple rice!!!
Plenty of parking!
No language barrier – spoke perfect Korean and English. Some Spanish too from what I heard.

Needs improvement:
They ran out of the dish I went there for, which is the Jajangmyun, so that’s a bummer. Will try again.
Parts of the self serve concept. Utensil box was empty at our table and they do expect that you take your dirty dishes back to the front. The place isn’t expensive, but not cheap either. I always get confused with how much to tip in places like this. Still tipped 18%, but not going over that for self serve like i would at full service places. Not a deal breaker, but food for thought.

If you haven’t had Somunnan’s Army Stew yet, you’re missing out—it’s cozy, spicy, and so satisfying. Honestly, everything here is tasty. This place is one of my go-to Korean comfort food spots in Cerritos!

Not bad Bibimbap Tuesday special. All you can refill Banchan. Got special at weekday.

Ordered a gam ja tang and after the first scoop, I found a strand of long hair on the meat. I called the guy at the check out counter and he was not genuinely apologetic. The dish was replaced eventually but the customer service was not there. Before I left, I asked him for some small containers to take the side dishes home that were already on my table, he was giving me the displeased look. Will definitely not go back to this place and urge others to do the same.

I was craving some late night Korean food and I was glad that Somunnan was open until 10:00pm.

I was expecting table service but the restaurant is self-service. Walk up to the cashier to order your food and they’ll call your ticket number when the food is ready.

Meanwhile, they have a self-service appetizer bar which I thought was a nice touch. They only have a few selection like kimchi, fish pancake, bean sprouts, chopped lettuce, and pickles. The kimchi was perfect for me, not too spicy nor too salty. The fish pancake was a little under seasoned and could have used some salt.

I ordered Dolsot Bibimpab and it was okay. I like how the clay pot was extremely hot which made the rice crispy on the bottom. It was under seasoned and I had to put a lot of gochujang for taste. I wish there was more meat in it though.

I’ll definitely go back there again to try their other items. I give Somunnan 3.5 stars.

Suggestion: Get rid of the styrofoam bowls/saucers and plastic utensils. It makes the feel of the restaurant more like a cafeteria than a restaurant.

Somunnan Korean Restaurant was ok. The soup was ok. I should have asked for additional seasoning as it was too bland for my taste. The AYCE banchan was pretty good.
