Gwang Yang

In terms of food, Koreatown is L.A.'s most overpowering neighborhood. It's overwhelming in terms of the quantity of good Korean barbecue alternatives (Kang Ho Dong Baekjeong, Park's BBQ, Ham Ji Park, etc. ); in terms of the number of people; and in terms of navigating it (you quickly get to know every street because you circle each block 100 times looking for parking). Gwang Yang BBQ cuts right through it all, reducing your K-town stress and making things, well, simple. On the next-door deck, there is a dedicated valet for the restaurant. Gwang Yang takes reservations, but even if you don't have one, you won't have to wait hours as you could at other Korean BBQ joints.

The atmosphere is modern and slick, but not to the point of feeling underdressed, which helps to justify the fairly costly menu. And placing an order is simple: you've come for the Gangnam-style bulgogi. The thin, seasoned, and much-misunderstood beef slices rarely take center stage anywhere, but they steal the show at Gwang Yang BBQ. The beef is soft and lacy and singed and perfect, cooked and chopped by your waiter; lay a mouthful in a lettuce leaf, top it with slivers of garlic and raw jalapeo, and you've got the perfect bite.
