Jincook

It’s easily one of the best Korean restaurants I’ve had. The portions are generous, everything is packed with flavor, and you can really taste the quality in each dish. The spicy fried chicken and the pork ribs were absolute standouts, both were incredibly good. The staff was extremely kind and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere is beautiful with a traditional touch that adds a lot of charm. Honestly, you can go there with your eyes closed.

If you want some Korean soul food then this place is for you. The decor takes you back in time, everything is so clean and the service is super friendly. Great to see more Korean restaurants in the city. We ordered Sweet potato cheese curry katsu , Brisket hot stone , Traditional pork soup, Garlic soy chicken, Bibimbap hot stone, Mushroom japchae, and Marinated dumpling. I definitely recommend getting the hot stone dishes since I love how it crisps up the rice. Definitely one of my top favorites that’s not AYCE Korean food. Plenty of pay parking in the back.

This is the kind of meal you crave when you want something warm, filling, and full of flavor🫶🏼 The Bulgogi Hot Stone arrived sizzling, with tender beef and rice that gets crispy as you eat. The Sweet Potato Cheese Katsu surprised us with its sweetness and gooey center, while the Pork Katsu was perfectly breaded and juicy. The Korean BBQ Short Rib was deeply savory and comforting, and the Korean Pancake added that crispy, shareable bite every table needs. Pair it all with a Soju Highball, and it’s comfort food done right.

It was packed at 730 on a Friday but we got a table for 2 quickly. Ordered the bulgogi, chicken Katsu, and the pancake - all of which were so good! Perfect spot during the unusually chilly weather.

Our family loves coming here, sometimes we forget it’s down the street!! Service and food is 100% all the time, we love the bulgogi and the fried dumplings ommggg sooo good! I’m sure everything else on the menu is good will definitely be coming back!

This hidden gem in Glendale feels like stepping into an old-school Korean eatery—simple, cozy, and packed with charm. The no-reservation, walk-in-only policy means it’s always bustling, especially during dinner hours, but the wait is so worth it. The staff is friendly, and the vibe feels like a classic spot you’d find in Seoul. Everything is served fresh, with generous portions and no fuss. Perfect for a casual night out without the hassle of heading to K-Town. If you’re looking for authentic Korean comfort food in a relaxed setting, this is the place!

On November 18, 2025, we visited Jincook, a Korean restaurant. We really had a wonderful experience. Our server, May, was exceptional—very attentive, friendly, always smiling, with good attitude since nothing ever seemed to be a problem for her. Truly outstanding service! We ordered the hot beef bibimbap, and it was delicious and flavorful. We requested the sauce and the kimchi on the side, and they happily accommodated us without any hesitation. The place itself is cozy and inviting. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant for its great food, excellent service, and the flexible, welcoming and positive attitude of both the server and the kitchen staff.
