Toe Bang

"Koreatown is a neighborhood where a quick beer turns into an all-night drinking expedition with levels of rowdiness you forgot existed. And after several hours of soju bombs, karaoke, and over-capacity dive bars, you’re going to need a comedown spot. Go to Toe Bang. This casual sports bar has cheap beer, solid bar snacks, and plenty of tables for you and your friends. Also, it’s called Toe Bang." - brant cox, sylvio martins

"Yes, the name. Don’t worry, this isn’t a hangout for fetishists. Toe Bang is a bar in Chapman Plaza, which on summer nights feels like a Fast & Furious movie that hasn’t been made yet. Toe Bang is all about anju, which are Korean pub snacks. Get a plate of mayo- and cheese-topped corn, as well as kimchi fried rice and meat skewers." - eric lane

"Koreatown is our favorite nightlife neighborhood in LA and a place where a quick beer turns into an all-night sloshfest with levels of rowdiness you forgot existed. And after several hours of soju bombs, karaoke, and over-capacity dive bars, you’re going to need a comedown spot. Go to Toe Bang. This casual sports bar has cheap beer, solid bar snacks, and plenty of tables for you and your friends. Also, it’s called Toe Bang." - brant cox

"This lively, dive-y K-town bar is a popular spot when you’re waiting for a table at a nearby restaurant, like Quarters or Kang Ho Dong Baekjeong. But it’s also a worthy destination in itself for its soju-based cocktails (we’re partial to the mango and lychee flavors), the fun hip-hop playlist, and bar snacks like kimchi pancakes, bulgogi cabbage wraps, and scallop skewers. Sports fans can watch Lakers and Dodgers games on the big-screen TVs. "

"Best known as the place you grab a drink while you wait for your table at Kang Ho Dong Baekjeong, Toe Bang appears to be a fairly straightforward Korean sports bar. However, with excellent party vibes, affordable snacks, and a yogurt soju that’ll take you to the moon, Toe Bang is one of our Ktown jumping off spots whether we’re headed to Kang Ho or not." - Brant Cox
