| Anime dolls at a Korean BBQ restaurant -- why not? |
This month's
Los Feliz Ledger review is
Tangier Korean BBQ. Sure, you can get slightly cheaper, more "authentic" Korean bbq not that far away in Koreatown. But don't ignore Tangier just because it has an odd name. Plus, there's a full bar and fun decor complete with Japanese anime characters with wooden booths.
Here's an excerpt from my review:
Pick either a set dinner or a selection of meats, all of which come with a vast array of panchan side dishes, which include cabbage and cucumber kimchi, potato salad, marinated tofu, bean sprouts, black beans, seaweed, anchovies and broccoli leaves.
The meat is the main attraction, although non-beef-eaters can grill up chicken, seafood or vegetables. It’s hard to pass up the weekday deal of $24.99 for unlimited Kobe beef, since that meal also includes chicken and pork kalbi (short ribs). Set meals are huge, adding salad, sashimi and soup to the parade of meats.
The well-marbled Kobe Harami slices are a buttery, tender marvel, tucked into a lettuce wrap with a dab of salty soy paste.
Tangier Korean BBQ of Tokyo, 2138 Hillhurst Ave. (323) 663-2000.

This is definitely on my list of places to try...always up for new and different Korean bbq locales! And it's closer than K-town!
as inauthentic as it appears, it looks really fun and more importantly, it looks like a veggie-friendly joint - a rarity for KBBQ eateries
Your looking for a veggie friendly bbq joint? What are you doing in a bbq joint in the first place then?... hahaha.
blow up doll? This is sooo diff from the old Tangiers. Great addition to Hillhurst though
The new look is of a vegas ultra lounge. Nick the bartender is one hell of a guy and takes care of his customers. Andrew, the general manager is as cool as they come. Great food, great atmosphere, great cocktails and service. Don't get startled when you walk in or leave as you are greeted by a chorus of voices from throughout the restaurant. Kid friendly as well! Try it, its a great addition to the neighborhood!
