I went here a few weeks ago because I don't mind trying new tofu spots. My friend seems to like this place and she was the one who introduced it to us. It's located in Cerritos just off the 91 freeway. I read other reviews how people like this place and that it's always packed. I've got nothing really bad to say about it. Their sides are mostly the same as other spots I've been to. I especially like the dried seaweed they have. I'd devour all of them quickly, but I hate asking for more all the time. The tofu is good as any other, and the service is good. At the end, you can make yourself some soft serve ice cream which is nice. The price is about $8-9 for tofu-- which again, is the same as any other place. I really hate sounding like I'm giving this place a bad review because there was nothing to complain about. It's just that if I had a choice, I would go to either Tofu Village in Garden Grove or the Tofu House in West Covina-- depending on what was closer.

(Jim)It's around 2am. You're hungry, and you don't feel like the usual Denny's or Jack In The Box. Maybe you're craving something Asian. Maybe you're craving some Korean tofu soup. Well, if you're in the Garden Grove area, don't you fret my friend. BCD Tofu House is there to save you!
You see, BCD is open 24 hours a day (atleast the one in Garden Grove is, and some of their other locations). That's why this place appeals to me. To be honest, in terms of tofu houses, I'd rank BCD somewhere around the bottom for me. But it's the place I'll go to if I want tofu and it's really late. They don't serve too many sides at night and the selection isn't so great either. But their tofu is just as good as any other place.

(mi) I am in no way a food critic, but i like to eat. A lot. That said, i'd like to introduce to you a favorite dish of mine. It's called Soon Tofu, which is hot boiling silky smooth tofu that's served in a hot pot. Having tried plenty of restaurants that specialize in this dish, i've finally discovered Tofu Village. What's sets this place apart from other? Well, the service is impeccable and the decor is painted with warm colors and art adorns the walls. Don't let the outside of the restaurant fool you. The second you sit down, you are served water along with hot tea. Soon to follow are the many colorful small appetizers. Here, meals are accompanied by at least ten mini dishes which include a variety of kim chi, fish, noodles, and vegetables among other tasty plates. And don't be shy about asking for seconds.
Now to the main dish. There are many choices to choose from when selecting soon tofu. There's a seafood combination, beef, pork, mushroom, and more. I ordered soybean which is a mixture of mushroom, beef, and clams. YUM! You also get the choice of how much spice you want: none, mild, spicy and spicy spicy. Personally, i like spicy. There's also three types of rice flavors, but they're more like colors: white, black, and green. Can't go wrong with either one. When the bubbling hot pot arrives at your table, you have the option of cracking an egg into the soup. Do it! Now sit back and enjoy your meal knowing that all this delicious food will not create a huge dent to your wallet. This meal, which will fill you up without having that yucky greasy food coma feeling afterwards, will cost you less than ten dollars. Oh, and an added bonus, you get soft served ice cream for free!!!!!!
