kobe beef at Genwa
1. Genwa:
Genwa is part of a pack of places that serve higher quality beef, such as Soowon or Park's, but breaks ahead with its staggering array of consistently good banchan, which comes in 20 or so varieties. Korean cuisine and eating, even at a BBQ restaurant, is more than just grilled meat. Kot sal (boneless short ribs) and tongue are especially recommended. Take a small piece of grilled meat, a dollop of banchan and relish with a spoonful of rice. 5115 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90036, (323) 549-0760.

This might not be the best Korean food you'll eat, but for fast food it's pretty darn good. Candice Anderson ELECTRONIC CASH REGISTER                                    Electronic cash Register

Ugh.... Looks like LA Weekly just Yelped it.  It appears to be ranked by number of stars on Yelp.  Jonathan Gold, where are you?

Uhm...you are missing the absolute best one! Moodaepo on 7th just east of Vermont. The BEST KBBQ spot in town! Hands down

Why isn't Park's on the top 10? Too yuppified, relatively speaking?
