Very tasty & flavorful tofu soup place. Love the Galbi here, so juicy & delicious. So much better than Korean tofu soup restaurants in Bay Area. Valet parking is affordable $2 for lunch unlimited $3 for dinner. Wait time is about 30 - 45 minutes during peak hours due to small places & only 3 50 ish waitresses running around. Only down side is customer service. Missed & forgot the order. Overall, such great soon tofu place. Recent price too.

Beverly Soon Tofu is rather cozy with its rustic, petrified wood decor. The benches make it a tight squeeze to get in and out of your seat. All of that adds to the Korean comfort food vibe.
They started us off with some barley tea. Then came the tofu salad, circles of tofu sitting in some light soy sauce (?), spring onions, and topped with shredded seaweed, which is quite refreshing on a hot day.
The banchan consisted of cucumbers, bean sprouts, potatoes, kimchi, radish.
$13 Chicken - grilled, spicy, marinated chicken breast:
Strips of marinated chicken breast sat on top of some grilled onions in a sizzling plate. I was pleasantly surprised that the chicken breast was not dry and the spicy flavor was very good.
$17 Stone Plate Bibimbap - vegetables, meat, fried egg over rice on a sizzling stone pot:
Sizzling hot vegetables and egg over rice mixed table-side. The charred flavor is very nice.
$24 Soon Tofu Soup & Squid combination:
They really pack each bowl full of tofu, and the soup holds nice, big chunks of pork, as opposed to the bits of minced meat you typically get.
$14 BBQ Squid grilled, spicy, marinated whole squid:
Very good squid. Each piece was very meaty, and quite chewy, but not too tough. It actually has a lot of the same flavors as the spicy grilled chicken.
I'd say share a few dishes and the Soon Tofu combination meals are quite good. However you don't really need to considering the combination prices are not much lower than paying for each dish separately. Though I am not sure if the soon tofu is better than any other soon tofu I have tried, I will say that the dishes are very good together.
Stopped in for some good ole Korean food after picking up Grandmaster Kwon from the airport. Solid Bimbimbop and soup with a fresh egg. Ribs were sweet and tasty. Still had enough for lunch and dinner the next day.
Beverly Soon Tofu was everything it's built up to be. Authentic great tasting Korean food. The kimchi soup with pork was great, it's came out boiling hot cooking my raw egg within moments. The BBQ pork was tasteful and sweet. The service was friendly and quick. The price is great! This place was hosted on Anthony Bourdain show Parts Unknown - you can't go wrong. Must go!
Went there for the first time and, holy smokes, we were impressed. We usually go to AYCE when we crave for kbbq. This time we didn't feel like cooking and didn't want to smell like food after so we gave this place a try. We ordered two soon tofu bulgogi combos and one large (5pcs) galbi. We think the "small" portion of galbi (2pcs) will be enough next time. We are not usually picky with our meat so cheap AYCE usually satisfies us. The high quality meat here is making us second guessing our past life choices. Needless to say, I think AYCE days are gone. This place has topped it all. The soon tofu is delicious and fulfilling. We will be back for sure!

We went back second time for more Galbi. The quality is consistent. it takes about 30mins for us to get there but it's well worth the drive. This place is our new go-to!
The soup was the highlight, really tasty! There were even small oysters in them. Just wished the portion was bigger and there was more soup. The galbi size was good but tasted a little too sugary. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Koreatown.
One of the best tofu soup places out there! The banchan in particular is bomb. I like that this place also gives you silkin tofu as a starter instead of the traditional citrus based salad. No refills on that though :( they have Yelp wait in line as well so that is awesome. {Log onto Yelp and add your name to the wait list before you get there}. Tofu soup had the perfect amount of flavor and the service is great! In terms of portions it is a good amount. I got the combo with bulgogi and my gf got just the soup (good amount to share). The soup al carte portion is larger than the one that comes with the combo. Keep that in mind when ordering. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures of the food though cause I was too hungry when it came. Oh also parking is valet in the lot. 3 dollars. Street parking is really had to find. Especially on the weekends.
Fabulous service. Definitely would come back. The owner is extremely nice and considerate. She would refill my water and add side dishes just when the thought cross my mind. Lel feels like she can mind read. Great food as well 10/10
Taste better than all the other chain tofu places in So Cal. Friendly service too. Recommend getting it spicy for more flavor, it's really not spicy at all.
Really good food and reasonable prices... but really hard to get the table, you have to wait for the tables depending on when you go there. Always very busy.
