Yup Dduk La - Los Angeles

The quality is top notch. i especially loved the tempura veg. the sauce is sweet, even though i got challenge spice. I'll admit i was expecting something different but it still earned 5 stars. the bowl is gigantic and enough for 2 people to really fill up or even 4 or more reasonable portions. when you look at it that way, its a good deal. like seriously if you eat the whole thing, you are a big eater for sure. i thought the service was very very good. im surprised to see negative reviews. i wouldn't say this is my favorite food, i prefer old school home cooked Korean food, but i still want to try it again when im in the mood. the spicy was definitely super hot but not deadly like reaper spice (but close, be warned) i really want to return and try chicken feet.

I had the tteokbokki and chicken feet, both at the lowest spice available. They were both VERY good! And the service was top notch. Parking is a little hectic but not too bad. Will definitely be coming back the next time I’m in LA!

Great and friendly employees! Food is fire Highly recommend this place!

Do not listen to the reviews saying it's not spicy if you are not used to the korean heat the classic will likely be too spicy for you we ordered off uber eats and there were 4 spice option, super mild, mild, classic, and challenge. we got yup dduk set A, classic heat, extra cheese, no other add ons. the portion is enough for 3 people, i ate with a friend and we had leftovers. if i were to order again i would get mild, the classic had us sweating red faced and crying. it was still yummy and not inedibly spicy but definitely a 4/5 spice level. texture and flavors were great. 4 star meal just because there wasnt too much variety or depth of flavor despite the add-ins and mini sausages, fish cakes it came with. Also the hard boiled egg was bad, very disappointing. you will need to add side dishes and additional vegetables to feel like youve had a complete meal. i will be using the leftovers to make noodles

Food is always great, good service as well. Hall was a bit small for dine in but understandable for the area, and takeout is always an option
