NOTE: In spring 2011, Koo’s Grill moved to a newer branch of California Market at 4317 Beverly Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90004, and subsequently closed. CLOSED NOW Took a client to Blue Ribbon Sushi yesterday and she is still raving about it. It took awhile for Koo’s to catch on, but it’s now a Koreatown destination. They opened their first location at the California Market in Garden Grove, then expanded to Koreatown in 2001.
SUSHI BOY KOREATOWN CLOSED HOW TO
Her parents went back to Korea to learn how to make them.

She said the pancakes are everywhere in Korea, but rare in the California. Their sandy-haired daughter has also been known to work the grill. Koo is the last name of the Korean couple that owns the trailer. Koo’s hotteok has to rank as one of the best snacks/desserts in Los Angeles. There are no seats, unless you count a coin-operated airplane ride near the market’s entrance. They’re stacked on wax paper and slapped on flimsy paper plates if you want to eat standing up, or crammed in Styrofoam containers if you take them to go. Hotteok span about five inches across, get caramelized on the griddle, and taste absolutely delicious. Instead, we've added places that we think will be the hottest places to be this summer, including a farm-to-table yakitori spot and a beautiful emerald green wine bar in Santa Monica, an elevated mariscos hangout in Frogtown, an elegant Milanese import in Los Feliz and Neuehouse Venice's new rooftop eatery.Glutinous, chewy, sweet pancakes contain pockets of scalding syrup made from chopped peanuts, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Along with Los Feliz's Mirate -which will turn six months old in mid-May-we've removed two of Citizen Public Market's newest stalls, vegan sushi spot Kusaki and Thai Town's Heng Heng Chicken Rice.
SUSHI BOY KOREATOWN CLOSED FULL
May 2023: Spring's in full swing! We visited a dizzying 11 new restaurants in the month of April-and while only five openings made the cut for our May update, this also means we've made some major cuts to accommodate.

Read on for May’s best new restaurants, ranked. In the interest of price transparency and reader convenience, we also strive to include valet costs and parking availability for every restaurant-further taking the headache out of your next great new meal in Los Angeles. If necessary, we also make recommendations as to when, and how, to fit these red-hot restaurants into your finite leisure time and budget-whether they’re worth driving out of your way for, or perhaps better suited for locals in the neighborhood. We steer clear of the social media hype cycle, give thoughtful ordering tips and let you know exactly what to expect in terms of crowd, vibe and cuisine at fine dining spots, laidback fast-casual joints and everything in between. Updated on a monthly basis, our best new restaurants list takes into account the quality of cuisine, overall ambience, price and value.
SUSHI BOY KOREATOWN CLOSED FREE
With our heavily vetted list of newly opened restaurants (yes, we’ve personally checked out every single one), we’re helping you decide where to head next-since there’s nothing worse when it comes to going out than wasting one’s precious, typically limited free time and, of course, money, especially with rising inflation. If you’ve already eaten through L.A.’s best restaurants and sipped cocktails at the hottest bars from the Westside to Downtown, you’re probably the type of person who loves checking out the city’s hottest eateries, but hates spending money on overhyped duds.
