"I've been going to Momofuku restaurants for about 20 years, and I was so curious about Super Peach. The space is pretty informal, but it's also comfortable in a way that feels almost uncharacteristic compared to Momofuku's early projects. My first couple of visits, I found it a little generic. But recently things have coalesced with bigger flavors that seem more confident with very rooted modern Korean food."
"You can find very crowd-pleasing kimbap filled with beef or fried chicken or spicy tuna. There's a jajangmyeon for two, a Chinese-Korean noodle dish that gets tossed tableside in its black sauce slick with pork fat. If this is Momofuku a couple decades in, in its gentle dad era, I think it also happens to be what many people want from a restaurant, which is to eat well, and to just feel a bit comfortable and taken care of."
Super Peach is a 200-seat modern Korean restaurant in Los Angeles created by David Chang's supergroup and part of the Momofuku culinary empire. The space is informal yet comfortable, diverging from Momofuku's earlier projects. Initial impressions leaned generic, but recent visits show more confident, bigger flavors rooted in modern Korean cuisine. The menu features crowd-pleasing kimbap with beef, fried chicken, or spicy tuna, and a tableside-tossed jajangmyeon for two with a pork-fat-slick black sauce. The overall experience aims to deliver well-executed food and a sense of comfort and care.
