Cho Dang Tofu Restaurant

Soooo deliciousness

I haven’t been there for like 4 years but its barbecue beef remains as tasty as before! I’ll definitely go back there again when I drop by.

Limited menu, but oh, their tofu soups are delicious with served banchan! Always get my kick when craving Korean sustenance.

I came here with a itchy throat and eating the warm beef Tofu Soup made me feel a thousand times better. They have a lot of sides like kimchi and seaweed that you can keep requesting more free of charge.

Great food! The bibimbap is a favorite, but the tofu soups are really great, too.The free side dishes called banchan (kimchee, bean sprouts, fish cakes, seaweed...)are great and quick to be refilled, which is good because you need to have some patience while you wait for your soup to stop boiling!

Forget BCD and come here. You won't regret it.update: Not sure if they changed ownership? But something has definitely changed in their soup recipe. It's much more saltier. And they no longer serve rice in the stone pots anymore. Which was one of my favorite parts of the meal. The crispy at the end. I dropped my review down one star because it these changes.

Best hot Korean food ever. Tons of vegan/vegetarian options and the sides are delicious. We come here often, I order the mushroom soup water based extra spicy. The wife gets the vegetable dumpling water based medium spicy. I have doubts that the dumplings are full vegan but we also love the acorn noodle dish with all the fresh herbs.

This is a korean restaurant with a relatively high food quality. Menu is simple, but enough variety to let you enjoy a decent korean meal. The pork dish and the beef ribs are must try items!!! Food was served hot and fresh, waitresses were korean and very friendly, no communication barriers at all. Will definitely visit again!

Great hot soup on cold days.

Casual & Hearty Food with limited but wonderful menu.

Casual Korean eating place with excellent tofu soup of all kinds, plus regular Korean barbecued dishes. Great food for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended. I came to eat for more than 12 years and never disappointed.

Price is getting expensive but the food is great

Had the spicy pork dish, reminds me of carne enchilada. Definitely a spot come a check out. Service was quick and friendly.

Food is really delicious. Place very clean. Servers very attentive and friendly. All in all, the place provide a very dining experience. I highly recommend it.

Mostly tofu soup. Great banchan side dishes and very nice service

Very tasty!

Fantastic sundubu-jjigae (boiling tofu soup) and unlimited bonchon for a cheap price. Great for both groups and dining alone.

Great service. Delicious food.

Long gone are the days that you can get a small soon tofu with small plates of BBQ meat for $12-15. Cho Dang now only serve tofu and KBBQ separately. The flavors of the dishes are still on par, but it's getting a bit pricey for a comfort selection. Prices aside, the food is tasty, and service is good.

Solid choice for Korean tofu soup, but it's pricey nowadays. The side dishes are good and flavors authentic.

Best tofu in South Bay

Some of the best Korean in the South Bay. Located in the same plaza as the bowling alley, this place is subtly tucked away next to an unassuming aquarium shop. They have a wide selection of Korean BBQ meats along with a variety of different Soon Tofu soups. The banchan is so fresh, they keep it replenished and it's all so delicious. I love this spot!

Decent food, but little skimpy with the rice: only one small bowl comes with the dish.

Cho Dang tastes more hearty and is catered towards traditional Korean diners wanting spicier tofu soup. (whereas BCD is now catered for everyone)

Good food, great prices. I especially like the pork soon tofu.

This place is terrible. The food is low quality and the service is awful. It's for strange white people.

The service here was quick and friendly. Bibimbap super good! I can't wait to come back to try other dishes.

Been here many times. Authentic soft tofu soup for about 10 bucks. you know it's good when I am usually the only non-Asian in the restaurant. There are not many Korean restaurants in Torrance and this is the best of the bunch.

Grill pork salad.

The water-based mushroom tofu soup is a great option for vegans. The broccoli, sprouts, and seaweed side dishes are also vegan. The food is always consistently delicious and the service is excellent. This is one of my absolute favorite restaurants!

I have been coming here for years; it used to be outstanding. I have the feeling it is going down a bit though.

Clean and good and spicy Korean food

Healthy food and delicious but a little high price

This restaurant is easily one of my top favorite in the area. The food is amazing, the store is clean and cozy but most memorable is the staff.The staff goes above and beyond making sure you have everything you need while tending to everyone else. The restaurant is often busy which makes their attention to each guest all the more impressive.The location is shared next to a popular bowling alley so parking may be difficult but not too strenuous and worth the extra patience.

Great place for lunch! I had Kimchi and beef toufu soup. Pretty affordable and tasty, for only USD12 before tax and tips. Free flow roasted barley tea and sides! Really liked the pickled kelp!

Best place for veggie pho and noodles on chula vista! Their tofu vermicelli is so bomb. Great prices too!

The food is good, server is so nice. The most important thing is can refill the side dish

Love this place. Food is good. Staff is friendly. My little gem.

Nice place for quick and good lunch

Great very fulfilling food, most competitive prices. We come here every month- our romantic routine to mark monthly anniversaries.

Delicious Korean hot pot. I always get the tofu one because I'm vegetarian. They have gotten a bit pricey, but you get a large pot of stew with dumplings, rice and a lot of sides. Definitely a lot for your money. Great service, very friendly staff!

Hidden gem next to the bowling alley. One of the best tofu soup spots in the area.

Despite the nondescript outside appearance of the restaurant in a strip mall, the food is good. It was about $13 for a bowl of tofu soup. Kind of pricey, but you get more than the usual amount of side dishes to go along with the rice and soup. I can attest to the authenticity of the flavor for everything (except maybe the broccoli side dish).

It's amazing. You just need to go and try it yourself👌🏼

Excellent menu, classic Korean theamed dishes and tofu bowls. Service was great and the food very fresh. Kimchee not too spicy, ask them to heat it up if you like spicy. Short ribs tasty, and friendly service. In Gabel Bowl parking lot, busy. Worth it!

Food is good, with decent sized portions. The condiments are good, and they have good service as well. They wait time is usually very small, but it's hard to seat large parties. However, the price is way too high, gone up around 5 dollars in 7-8 years.

Some people like Korean tofu soup and some don't but either way, Cho Dang has some fine tofu. The soup base is one of the tastiest I have come across and the quality of tofu is premium. Thick, soft, and silky.They have a full selection of tofu soups from meat, seafood, and vegetarian versions. You pick from three spice levels. I usually get mild and it is plenty of spices and flavor for me but medium is the typical spiciness level to get if you like spiciness.Cho Dang also serves many other entrees such as Korean short ribs and dol sot bibimbap. All delicious and really good.They seem to care about quality and service. The service has been good every time we eat there. Sure you maybfind cheaper Korean tofu houses but the qualitybof ingredients and service is top notch.

Good food, fast service, and reasonable prices. Cant go wrong with anything on the menu. Definitely will be back

Good food in a very reasonable price. Their short ribs was mouthwatering. Fast service . Definitely will be back and try their other dishes .

Decent food. Not a large menu, which I appreciate. The tofu soup was good and so was the galbi. Spicy isn't actually spicy so you might want to ask for extra spicy if you want spicy. Their sake comes as a bottle. I would've preferred either warm or chilled and not flavored, but that's me being picky.
