What People Are Saying About Ogamdo Cafe
The Editor

In Short – Travel mementos line the walls of this Mid-Wilshire eatery, its multiple dining areas dizzy with adventure ephemera: metal John Deere ads, vintage nautical and railroad equipment, New York subway-stop signs. Servers wear white- and blue-trimmed Laotian sailor uniforms, sailing through the room as pop oldies and jazzy standards blast from hidden speakers. The three-page menu features mostly Chinese fare, including seafood soup, black-bean beef, stir fries and steamed sea cucumber. Korean specialties include kimchis and dumplings.

Love the decorations. Every inch is somewhat different and has a unique theme. Its like being in Alice and Wonderland with a nice comfortable feel. Food is EXCELLENT. Love the chinese and korean food with the choice to get a nice 22oz ribeye steak! Great place to take a date or just hang out with friends and enjoy a few drinks!
- Pros: Ambience and food thats not too pricey
- Cons: location, very busy street
The Details on Ogamdo Cafe
Parking:
Valet service is complimentary at both lunch and dinner, but patrons are encouraged to tip $2 or $3 when claiming their cars.
Know Before You Go:
It's easy to drive right past the restaurant, which isn't labeled in English. On the east side of La Brea, look for a freestanding brick house with a large, light-blue auto-repair sign above it.
Look Good:
Need soy sauce? More wine? Just press the tableside buzzer--it looks vaguely like a doorbell--and a waiter will be right over.
