BROKEN MOUTH | Lee's Homestyle

Delicious, highly recommend. Only had a few items from Broken Mouth but I was never disappointed. My favorite is the spam masubi. I have a soft spot for spam masubi but Broken Mouth's version of masubi was unexpected and incredible, sometimes I just order like 5 of them for lunch 😋 The purple rice is always cooked perfectly, the green sauce is grainy but gives the masubi a great texture. All other dishes, sausage, shrimp, bread pudding etc were also very good but that masubi... I think about it weekly. Located downtown so parking can be difficult, I am unsure about parking nearby. Place itself is located on the bottom floor of apartments I believe, has other restaurants nearby/in the space so gives off a unique and fun cafeteria vibe. Plenty of tables available in the center for dining or hanging out. Staff is always friendly and service is always quick so great for my office day lunch runs. Buon Appetito, Piatto Pulito 😋

just WOW!!!! Came all the way from Texas with the intention of trying this place after seeing it on TT and I’d go again just to eat here again and again. We got the garlic shrimp and beef with Mac salad & it was amazing 😍 we ordered last minute and they didn’t cut any corners with our food and the owner (i think it was the owner) gave us complimentary drinks. Service was immaculate and even though we came almost at closing (traffic was terrible coming from Hollywood) we were still greeted and welcomed. 🙂

Amazing! MUST TRY if you go to Downtown Los Angeles, California!!! Food was so delicious and portions are big. It's worth the hype. Also the owner is a humble man. He suggested to order ahead at least 30 minutes so that you get your food fresh. He was super friendly and helpful. Please stop by whenever you can. Broken Mouth restaurant is #1 !!! Drove from Las Vegas to LA for this ...Thank you for everything. We will be back

The food was amazing. I had the garlic shrimp menu with purple rice and cucumber kimchi. The cucumber kimchi was amazing, the shrimp was very meaty and jusssssttt perfect, and the ricr also very deliciuous. Seasoned perfectly with furkikake. The gentlemen there offered us complimentary drinks and a spam musubi. The musubi was the best I had. I want to go back there for the beef menu 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

A dear friend has shown me this place in DT LA known for being ranked the top in the nation by Yelp in 2023. This place was ranked #1 for a reason! WOW! I hope the place would grow in good, blessed ways for the sake of the whole community as well. I got the tofu plate and was blown away by the light, crispy exterior and well balanced sauces. The two sides I got were the rice and salad. The rice was incredible as well - it made me realize that I don’t get to come across this kind of rice as often outside of home. I love purple rice. The salad reminded me of the Korean salads that I would get at KBBQ restaurants except for a twist and well proportioned greens that made the whole plate a wonderful, strengthening meal! Drinks were offered to us on the house an I got the guava juice. There are three different kinds of guava juice to choose from so if you are a guava juice fan - the world is your oyster. I appreciated the organization of making online orders to pick up later. Everything is streamlined well - I get that this is done so to focus more on the quality of food. If you go around early afternoon on a weekend there’s actually not that many people which I consider the golden hour hahaha. I pray for there to be renovations to the entire place though. The bathrooms were falling apart, which was a bit of a disappointment. However, this place is indeed a hidden gem. There’s something in this food that I hunger to see more of in the whole DT LA community. God bless you all.

Genuinely so delicious! If you are looking for good hearty food worth the price in downtown LA, this is the place to go. The owner is super sweet and will give you great advice on what to choose. I got the teriyaki chicken with purple rice and it was truly drool worthy. Plus the coffee was delicious! The owner was super sweet after helping us and gave us our drinks on the house too. This is how you run a business!!!

The food was so good! We really loved both dishes and the musubi was perfectly soft. The galbi was so melt in your mouth I would recommend getting it if you ever see it on the menu. Cucumber salad was crunchy and tangy. Don't be intimidated by the big pile of spice on top the spice level is mild. Service was very friendly! The owner is super nice and joked around with us when I accidentally said "mac and cheese" instead of mac salad. Speaking of! The mac salad is very unique. It's extremely creamy and I would say it's more like a great potato salad than your typical hawaiian mac salad. Still very delish and a good in-between after the rich meat. 10/10 would come again. Wish it wasn't down town! there's one parking lot nearby with a $10 price but it's a slightly longer walk
