Yei San Jib - Rowland Heights

This was my first visit to this place. I arrived at 10 PM, and there was a decent number of customers already. We were seated promptly and given the menu. I decided to try the bossam, which I had never had before, and I ordered it as a combo with the sulungtang. The bossam was absolutely delicious! It tasted great with the lettuce, pickled radish, and the brown sauce (I don't know its name). Each bite of the bossam, followed by a sip of the hot sulungtang, was exactly what I needed on a late night. I will definitely return to this place!

I ordered hot and spicy goat soup and kimchi fried rice. After 2-3 bites I felt something sharp in my throat. I told the male worker in the front and he asked me if I tried the dish before and proceed to ask why did I order it if I never had it. I don't know why he worried about that more than me swallowing a sharp object from their food. I went to the bathroom and checked and saw a small sharp object in my throat. I walked out and my table was cleared and no one came to ask if I was okay. I waited to tell them but no one wanted to leave the kitchen so I decided to leave for ER. It was my second time eating here. The food is okay but eat at your own risk!*picture shown is a piece of plastic with a quarter to see size difference*

Food is great!! Service a little slow but it goes with atmosphere of just being chill. We paid 28.99 for the beef bulgogi, 11.99 for kimbap and I believe 14.99 for the fried rice. Server was very attentiveFood: 5/5

The five star goes to the tofu soup! This will be my new favorite Korean place to eat. For anyone who’s gonna dine here you MUST try the tofu soup 100% recommended. The Korean roll is also one of my favorite. The soup and the roll is always a must get for me when I go there. We also got the beef Kimbap but it was a little too salty for me. Besides that everything else is okay. Will always be back for the tofu soup and Korean roll??

Galbi portion in the combo is stingy albeit flavorful and tender. Seafood pancake is an absolute DOUBLE THUMB-DOWN! It'd better be justifiably renamed VEGETABLE PANCAKE instead since there is hardly any seafood in it at all, not too mention the flour is doughy. Yes, $2.50 charge for rice. I regret visit to this place. There are better Korean restaurants in the neighborhoods like Young Dong. You have been warned.
