    Wow! Very good. Bulgogi sliders, skirt steak Korean BBQ style, and butternut squash congee are absolutely amazing

    They don't take reservations here, so come early. Once in, get the spicy wings.

    Sean is one of the best bartenders I ever had the privilege to meet in NYC! This guy is no joke. I love this place.

    While the food was satisfactory, I was "meh" about the food. It is "Americanized Korean-fusion". I guess I expected more being that it is Michelin rated. Go to K-Town for your Korean food fix.

    Amazing food and delicious cocktails. Mix it up and order a variety of 4-5 dishes between 2. The "KFC" chicken and spicy cod roe pasta are a must-try!

    The wait was way too long. It took 90 minutes when it was only supposed to take 30 minutes. Beware, you are required to purchase 2 tapas per person to eat here. This was a ridiculous requirement.

    Its supposed to be like westernized korean or something. Overpriced and every korean dish they serve is sweetened or less spicy etc. Not sure if thats perceived to be progressive by others.
