Bab N Banchan / 밥N반찬 (구 흥남면옥)

Hidden gem in Torrance! The food here is delicious and literally tastes like your grandmother cooking. Their galbi is one really good and they have this homemade bone broth that comes with the cold noodles and it’s one of the best I’ve had. I would definitely come back again!

We've made the rounds when it comes to Korean spots in Torrance, but this was our first time checking out BnB. The place looks impressively clean and feels brand new. We swung by on a Monday, just before 3 p.m., and the place was completely empty... except for an elderly gentleman dozing off in a corner booth. Turns out, he was our server! Super sweet guy, definitely added to the charm. To be fair, not many folks are chasing Korean BBQ in the middle of a Monday afternoon. We were just looking for a quick bite, so we went with the soon tofu and cold noodles. Both hit the spot, flavourful, decent sized portions, and the banchan lineup was not too shabby. All in all, a solid intro to BnB. But I have a feeling I'll need to come back and give their BBQ a try before I can truly make up my mind about this place.

Let's just say it was great lunch, marinated crab, abalone, meats combo plate, steamed duck, and pork jowl! The meats quality is really good and the staff was very attentive. Banchan selection was good and fresh also. My favorite was still the crab, well worth the price of enty.

The spicy raw marinated crab is... Wait for it... spicy 😂 but it's so good! And the banchan was tasty as well. Lovely place with lovely staff.

I tried this newly opened place yesterday with my close friends. The roasted duck and beef made using cypress wood were excellent in both appearance and taste, and the main dish, soy sauce crab, was truly excellent. I think it will be the best soy sauce crab restaurant you won't find around here. Next time I get the chance, I definitely want to bring my parents.

I ordered take out. Some spicy pork bulgagi. Absolutely delicious!! Came with four sides and a great little thermo carry bag. Inside it’s very nice. Spacious and comfortable. Lots of flavor and loved the variety os tastes. Highly recommended!!

So gooood!! I tried their Naengmyon (냉면) and galbi (갈비) and I was quite blown away. I’ve tried many 냉면 places but this one hit different. The quality was very high and the price was only around $15-20. The customer service was also excellent! Definitely recommend you to give here a try!
