Sun Nong Dan Western

Despite having expanded to two locations in the area, this Koreatown galbi jjim specialist still fills up at all hours of the day with partygoers and night owls hankering for a cheese-covered mountain of marinated short rib, potatoes and onions. Aside from their signature family-style dish, the rest of the beef-centric menu offers single-serving soups and meat platters designed to be dipped into bubbling hot pots. For those closer to the San Gabriel Valley, Sun Nong Dan also has outposts in San Gabriel (open until midnight) and Rowland Heights (open 24/7).
