"Lee Ga in Koreatown is known for its chilled buckwheat noodles, mostly because they’re made fresh instead of coming out of a package. And while chewy noodles sloshing around in icy beef broth (and other spicier naengmyeon options) are absolutely a reason to come to this strip mall Korean restaurant, we enjoy the whole package here. Lee Ga’s combos come with seasonal banchan, huge, generously stuffed mandu, and marinated beef ribs that slide right off the bone. It’s an ideal meal on a hot summer day or really any day that you’re in the mood to eat well." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins
