I've ordered from Namsan many times over the years via delivery apps, and I finally tried it in person recently because it was late, not much else was open, and I had always wanted to see Namsan in person. There wasn't much seating inside, but it was fine because there was only one other party aside from us. It seems like they're in full delivery app mode because they seem to utilize the seating area also as a storage area. The food was decent but nothing special...they have such an extensive boonsik style menu that this is to be expected. One pleasant surprise dining in person here is that they don't nickel and dime you to death with the banchan like they do on the delivery apps. Not sure if I'll be back in person, but Namsan is good option if you're looking for a restaurant that has an extensive menu and makes everything decently.

After trying any and all Korean restaurants' kimchi fried rice, I have come to a conclusion that their kimchi fried rice is the best in all of Koreatown. Their soondooboo chigae is out of this world. I order from them 2-3 times a week bc it's that good. The only thing I would do better on is maybe their variety of side dishes when you get delivery but their food is so good so that doesn't matter much to me.

Wanted to eat Korean food and came across this place. Happy I stopped by with my boyfriend because the food was delicious! We ordered bulgogi, bulgogi kimbap, rice cakes, and cold noodles. Everything tasted great and the staff were very nice.

This is a family restaurant. I like to go there. Their food is delicious. Korean grandma is nice and friendly. They have traditional Korean style. This restaurant is clean and peaceful.

I always order from this place! One of my favorite Korean restaurants, they have a wide variety of dishes and are very authentic. Their kimchi jjigae (stew) is SO flavorful and they don't skimp out on the pork belly. You can tell it's home made, delicious. I've also gotten the kimchi jeyuk bokkeum (stir fried pork belly with tofu and kimchi) and it is awesome. The samgyetang and tteok mandu guk are also very good. They have Chinese Korean food as well like tangsuyuk (sweet and sour chicken) and even sesame balls which are like fried mochi filled with red bean :)

Nice neighborhood eatery. They have lots of food choices like ramen, bugolgi, chicken and more. I got the fish plate which came with rice and Cole slaw. I got the macaroni salad too which was interesting. Not the greatest taste but gets the job done.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! everything on the menu i have got is an automatic 10/10. this is authentic Korean cuisine. I LOVEEE they allow you to adjust the level of spicy (someone like me gets "extra" spicy and they make it happen). These are some amazing plates to consider: 1. Kimchi Fried Rice 2. Korean Spicy Hot Wings 3. Sausage Stew 4. STIR-FRIED PORK BELLY (1000/10) 5. Kimbomp 6. Ton-Ka-Tsu w Rice 7. Spicy Pork Bulgogi 8. Seafood Soup (Spicy)

Ya girl is on Day 5 of being sick as heck. I never used to get sick and now my old bones crumble at the sign of infection. Y'all may do a chicken noodle soup when sick, but I do sam gae tang. Koreans know best with this ginseng laced broth, filled with a chicken stuffed with rice, pine nuts and dates designed to not just be delicious but healing. Namsan's sam gae tang feels like a warm hug. All of their food does, actually. I grew up on the home cooking at my friend's homes and this tastes just like that. It really felt comforting when sick and was a huge portion for $19 - quite a bit cheaper than neighboring shops. I added on a couple of items because when I try a new place, I like a variety of options to bask in. 95 cents for their macaroni banchan? I was in and loved it. Gobbled that goodness up. Namsan has a really cute version of the lunch box from "Squid Game" filled with a ton of bap, a big fried egg, spam, seaweed, spinach, kimchi and some other goodies. This makes for a great lunch and really! Egg, Rice and Spam with seasonings is one of my most favorite comfort foods. If you are looking for more home-cooked style Korean food, Namsan will be perfect for you. Comfort food maximized with big portions and great prices. Plus I got a full copy of the Korea Times with my order to keep me on top of current events! Obsessed.
