They have the best dumplings here. I've been a fan of this place since the old days when they started out in the food court here. Then they moved and set up their restaurant. Went back to visit, and their dumplings were still good. Customer service was very nice too.

My FAVORITE Chinese Place for Jjajangmyun, Fried Rice, Tangsooyook and Zzambbong. My family and I go here at least twice a month or more. We always togo the fried rice and the portion is huge and delicious. The Zzambbong has so much seafood inside!

Review #299 - 2018
After my not so relaxing ride from Disneyland Hotel back to LAX & then waiting to get picked up, I had a major headache so I wanted some spicy soup to clear my head and jampong was the next best thing that I could think of.
I thought of going back to the place that I'd ordered from before, but the MIL told me that she knows of a better place around the condo so she called and placed an order for me.
We showed up around 7:30 PM on September 26th, and my order was already waiting on the counter.
We get home and I pour it into a pretty big bowl, but it didn't fit everything so I ended up splitting the order with the MIL. It was a lot bigger than most places I've ordered from.
Sadly, the flavor was just so-so. It wasn't bad, but the spicy level was average so it didn't hit the spot. I guess I should've read the reviews first before agreeing to her suggestion. Any way, she only knew the Korean name to the place so I couldn't find it on Yelp.
I guess I should just stick to my own gut instinct on where I want to eat in the future. -

If you're looking for super chewy delicious Korean noodles, Plaza Mandarin House is the place to check out. It's hidden next to the elevator on the first floor.
~PARKING~
Plaza Mandarin House is located in the Korean Plaza Market, so there's plenty of parking in the huge parking structure. On the weekdays you have to validate your parking ticket for free 3 hours. Parking is free on the weekends.
~FOOD~
They give you complimentary tea when you dine in. I ordered the Kkampoong shrimp, Spicy seafood noodle, and Black bean noodle.
The Kkampoong shrimp is essentially like sweet and sour chicken, but with shrimp. I really liked this dish. The shrimps were HUGE and tender. The only issue was that after awhile the batter gets soggy, but it's still so delicious.
The black bean noodle is also very good. Don't be scared off by the black color. It's very flavorful and the noodles are perfectly cooked with the perfect amount of chewiness to them.
The spicy seafood noodle was by far my favorite. The amount of seafood that they pack in there is so generous. You get your octopus and shrimp and pork meat. If you don't like the taste of seafood, I wouldn't recommend this because it screams seafood. The soup is spicy, not unbearable, but it's spicy. Again, their noodles were on point with the texture.
~TIP~
I would recommend coming here with two people or more so you can try different dishes. I shared both noodles and the Kkampoong shrimp with 2 other people and it was the best decision ever. I got to nom nom on a little of everything!
~FINAL CRITIC~
I absolutely LOVE their noodles. Their portions are also pretty big and it's decently priced. I would definitely be coming back to eat more noodles!
