Shin Sun Meat

my favorite local korean meat market. I especially like the frozen foods that they have here like beef/​pork cutlet, dduk galbi (mini round kalbi tasting pancakes), and fish (pop into the toaster oven and dinner is made!). Oh yah… and of course they have the usual fresh meat like kalbi, shabu meat, pork, etc. take your pick!

I tried here about twice, I always get the Chadol and the Marinated Galbi.
The first time I got both was pretty good but it wasn’t amazing. The quality was okay but it just tasted like other meat you can get from all you can eat.
The second time I tried here it wasn’t satisfying. I paid about $ 40 for two pounds of both and thats actually pretty cheap. But the quality wasn’t what I think I paid for. They were really fresh but not that tasty.
Overall, if you want quantity over quality, this is the place, but personally not of my favorite. There’s too much difference between other korean butchers I’ve tried.
3 stars because it was aright

This place has Best Kimchi. u should try it.
when you cook pork belly especially… so heavenly

I don’t know why, but whenever I visit LA, I always get lured here, because of their quality meat! Other stores and grocery marts cannot even compare to the type of meat they sell at Shin Shun. Their meat are so tender and fresh it just melts in your mouth. Sorcery??? This is the place to go to if you want some good Korean meat! mhhhh. Mouth is watering just by thinking about it…

All of their meat selections are fresh and of good quality. If you are an AYCE type, don’t bother coming here — you won’t appreciate the quality.
But, if you prefer quality over quantity, this is the place to shop. It is pricier than the most markets but much better meat.

I agree with the rest of the voices here. This is the best place to acquire Korean meat/​barbeque meats such as Cha Dol, Sam Gyups’, Garbi, etc. Any cut of protein that a Korean recipe calls for is here.
It is $ 1 more per pound compared to the Korean grocery stores, yes, but I have no problem for what seems to be the highest of quality, fresh, USDA, and to get to the bottom of it, it is absolutely delicious cuts of meat.
They do not serve this quality of meat in any AYCE KBQ spot, trust me. Each sliver of Cha Dol melts and it has a sweet hint to it, which I am speculating comes from grass fed cows. I bought their cut used for Bulgogi, marinated it myself, and it was so money that it brought the douchebag Guy Fieri outta me. I fist bumped myself on my lonesome.
This is where it gets even better. I just came back from coppin’ some liver. It was heavier than I expected so I was thinking, «Hey, maybe she gave me some garlic for service!» which is pretty far fetched to expect but when I got home and opened my bag, there was a slab of plastic protected ice on top! Forget the garlic, now that’s service! I recently had chickens go bad from a 20 minute drive so, wow, this really made my day.
You know where my money’s goin’ when it comes to any Korean cuts of meat.

try
wagyu Chadol
Prime Kalbi Sal
Prime Beef tongue
Kobe Pork
You wont go back to Park De Gam, Genwa, Gil mok for quality beef

I have been going to this establishment for the past 3 years now. I NEVER buy Korean meat (marinated or not) at the market, as the quality is far inferior to Shin Sun Meat! The price might be about $ 1 more per pound for all items, but the quality, taste and freshness is far superior to anything you can buy at a market.
I’ve been to other butchers in K-​town, and this place is the best. The owners are extremely friendly, and get this… they are open 365 days out of the year! They never have a day off! I’ve told them they should take the holidays off, but they want to stay open for their loyal customers!
So, what do I get there? They have everything! Everything you would find at a Korean bbq restaurant… they have there and you can enjoy in your own home! I like to get the thin brisket, pork bellies, unmarinated rib-​eye pieces, marinated kalbi, and if I feel saucy, I’ll get some intestines as well!
They have all the sides from fresh veggies, to «banchan» that are home-​made and MSG-​free, so it’s definitely a one-​stop shop! Make sure to check this place out… you won’t regret it!!!
