About Soban

Watch on TikTok

A neighborhood institution for traditional Korean home cooking, Soban draws Koreatown regulars with bubbling tofu stew, braised short ribs, and a rotating banchan selection that feels like a proper Korean mom's kitchen. The Olympic Blvd location is no-frills and wallet-friendly — long before K-Town went trendy, Soban was the real deal.
