  My favorite restaurant to eat at. They also play kpop while you eat :D
  
  There's free sides and this includes the green onion pancake that I love ever since I first came here. I usually get the C2 combo and I look forward to eating the Bulgogi, especially when its served sizzling hot. The combo also includes a choice of your tofu soup and I tend to get the Pork Tofu soup.  The price came to be around $40-45. This place always fills me up and I love to come here every once in a while.
  
  They also offer a choice of multigrain/white rice in which before was served in a stone pot. Now they changed the white rice serving into the same small bowl you get when they serve the salad and it's kinda sad. They decreased the serving size (judging from the bowl differences) and the white rice became a lil mushy but still edible.
  
  Parking is tough because there's a lot of places in one single plaza but if you decide to park in the empty spaces on the far side it can be a walk. There is a wait but it differs and there's a lot of tables available so the wait isn't as long. The restrooms are a walk since you gotta go in the back past the kitchen and then further down to a single bathroom (unisex yay). The staff and service are A1. They're friendly and helpful to us when needed and work efficiently in a busy environment.

  I've always been a big fan of Young Dong Tofu House my whole life. This place has been here in SGV for ages. The food is great. Service is a hit or miss, some workers here are super friendly. Others will look at you as you're calling them, and just straight up ignore you.
  
  Tonight, I came here to eat dinner as usual. Delicious food. As I walked back to the table from the restroom, I saw the open bucket of salad dressing sitting on the floor, right next to the mop and bucket used for cleaning the floors.... Gross.

  Went here with a group of us from OC because we were craving soon tofu and being so far away from korean areas. I've been here previously a few years ago, where this location was a total miss, but didn't think it would so this time as the location was much more bustling. This place is was pretty disappointing coming from the OC where we have BCD and other awesome Soon Tofu joints as well as having been to K-Town. Something feels missing from the taste of the tofu. It feels...off? Like there's no flavor or spice and it's pretty bland. Might be because they're missing MSG, a key staple of good soon tofu joints. If you want good, legit, spicy soon tofu, then go somewhere that serves it with MSG. Do not go to Young Dong!
  
  Service was also really disappointing at this joint. The lack of service was really unexpected for a korean food service since it's usually pretty common for Korean joints in the OC to have top-quality service and where most will have a little red button you can use to call over servers. They ignored most of the parties there and only seemed to care that you were in and out and done with your meal.

  * No baby changing stations
  * High chairs available
  
  It's a nice restaurant with lots of natural light coming in. It's well spaced out and could definitely handle large groups easily. The staff were all polite and attentive. I was happily surprised when I accidentally dropped my chopsticks & by the time I picked it up, a server had already left a new set for me.
  
  Once ordering, we got all the goodies. Kimchi, bean sprouts, an egg pancake thing, and other yummy stuff.
  
  Seafood tofu soup four level spicy, please! This is my all time favorite & it's always a risk to get. From here though, it was clean (no gritty or mud taste,) had excellent quality seafood! It was steaming hot and cooked my egg in a jiffy. This also came with a side of rice which is very sticky and good.

  Came here with the GF for a late dinner. It was pretty busy so that was a good sign that the food was going to be good! One of the workers came to give us our side salads and dropped one of ours and didnt apologize or clean up the mess. We noticed that she was pretty clumsy by how she was handling our food and other peoples food as well. The food came out pretty quickly.
  
  What I ordered was the spicy pork with white rice and my GF ordered a hot stone rice dish with the pork tofu soup. Overall my dish was just okay. I felt like it was overally seasoned with spices to where I couldnt really taste the pork. It was definitely not pleasing to look at. I believe that the GF enjoyed her food so that is always a plus.
