Kimbap Paradise - Torrance

The prices were very reasonable. The beef kimbap was somewhat bland, but the tuna was good. I wish the tteokbokki were less heavily seasoned; the amounts of sugar and sauce felt a bit overwhelming to me, and I ended up drinking a lot of water.

We were in search of a light meal that would be easy to take to the beach, and kimbap turned out to be the perfect choice! The menu offers a variety of kimbap options, but you really can’t go wrong with the classic beef. I was a bit surprised by the price since I usually pay half of that at home, but when our order arrived, I realized it was actually equivalent to two full rolls, so I was relieved we only ordered one. I especially loved that they included radish on the side, as it’s my favorite part. Each roll was packed with ingredients and rolled tightly. I had expected bulgogi beef, which is usually thinly sliced, but it was more like ground beef instead. Nevertheless, it was still delicious kimbap, and I wish I lived closer so I could sample more of their kimbap offerings!

The food is consistently delicious, and the service is always friendly! My favorites are kimbap, kimchi fried rice, and bibimbap!

I didn't eat kimbap there. But their donnkatsu (pork cutlet) dish was delicious!Food: 5/5

For those fans of bun sik type of Korean food (i.e. street food) this is the place to go in the South Bay. Their specialty (duh) is kimbap and they offer a large variety that are done very well. Usually order the beef or the fish cake. But always a good balance of ingredients and rice. Have had most things on their menu... fish cake soup (portion is huge), chewy noodles (cholmyun), kimchee fried rice, duk bok ki (spicy rice cakes)... all were great. Be sure to add egg, ramen and other goodies when you order the duk bok ki. Service is very fast and friendly. Place is not terribly big but ample parking since it 's located in strip mall that has a Del Taco, Yoshinoya and a bunch of other small restaurants, food joints and stores.
