Hidden gem in Gardena. Baek Am Korean Restaurant is a cozy, food is so authentic with high-quality, fresh ingredients. Highly recommend! Banchan was fresh and well-balanced—not overly strong, just done right. You can tell the ingredients are high quality, especially the meats—very clean flavors, no gamey taste at all. Highlights for us were the seafood pancake (crispy outside, soft inside with plenty of seafood), the handmade sundae (blood sausage) which was surprisingly delicious even for someone who usually doesn’t eat it, and the soft tofu stew—comforting, flavorful, and perfect on a cold day. The grilled ribs were juicy and perfectly cooked, and the spicy pork was fragrant and great with rice. Overall, authentic Korean food, thoughtful execution, and warm service. A place you’ll wan

They recently opened within 6 month in a new plaza that just only them there. Parking is plenty and big. Just abit odd on turning onto the plaza, small, sharp & narrow..we missed it and did a U-turn. It's clean and basic decor, but bright. The menu is straight forward and good plenty choices but we're for the Hinoki. We got the BaekAm Hinoki Steamed Pork Bossam for $60 (wooden steam box of sliced meats over shredded green onions) and cold beef spicy noodle. It's a big portion and very tasty when you mixed all the ingredients together. Great, lovely, friendly and attentive service by the staff. We got compliments taste of dates drinks. Quite good. Overall, fantastic lunch and very filling with fantastic services for sure.

My Korean friend from LA recommended this place and he said this place is being slept on. I've been to almost all the Korean restaurants in LA and I agree - this is THE spot for Korean food in LA. Very friendly owner and staff. Real homecook Korean food made with a lot of love and care. They source their pork from well known local farm they personally work with. The freshness in the ingredients is next level. From the banchan to the pork bulgogi to their special steamed bossam, the quality and flavors are next levels. Plenty of parking, not having to deal with the crowd and traffic in ktown. Whenever I'm back in LA, this is one place I'll always return.

I absolutely loved this Korean restaurant! The food was authentic, flavorful, and super fresh every dish tasted homemade with real care. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the service was quick even during busy hours. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, perfect for a casual meal or dinner with friends. I especially recommend trying the house made soondae and smoked duck, it was incredible! Definitely one of my new favorite spots for Korean food.

We tried tofu stew, seafood pancake and beef bone soup. The beef was just prefectly tender, easily falls of the bone, but not overcook. The highlight of our meal was the seafood pancake. You can hear the crisp while she was helping us cut it. It was also loaded with squid.
