Elizabeth MaiuoloJuly 21, 2015had the bap with the vegetables and the fried egg on top. it was delicious and super healthy!! they put some soy sauce on top and mixed it for me too. Services was amazing!!!! hosts were super excited
Spicy stir-fried octopus 낙지볶음 is super delicious - large enough for two
- CarolAugust 31, 2015Their specialty kimchi fried rice, bibim naengmyun, and pork galbi are all great! Really enjoyed my meal here. Also, it seems that the ddukbokki is a must try-- I didn't get to because they sold out
Shabna ZaheerSeptember 3, 2018I've never had Korean food and this was amazing! I ordered the rice with seafood and it comes with a hot plate where they crack an egg. The whole thing comes with a starter/side of small dishes! Love!
Cheapeats IncApril 6, 2017Came upon this Resto by accident. Walking thru Korea Town looking 4 a dining spot. It was busy so stopped in. Gr8 decision. Bimap & ramen noodle stir fry & various of nibbles tht come 2 every table.
JessicaAugust 6, 2015A good Korean restaurant with more than just the basic Korean dishes! You can find a lot more variety here and they are all presented cleanly. It was tasty too
Honghui YuOctober 20, 2015This newcomer to Ktown offers something for everyone, whether you're craving bbq, stew, or noodles. Came here on a late Saturday night and took advantage of their amazing $3 beer special
준기 홍August 12, 2015SamGueTang(Korean chicken boiled soup with chicken inside) was really delicious. The place is nice and clean and the price was justifiable. And they give you plenty of side dishes. I am going back.
Eaten here a handful of times and every meal has been wonderful! From breakfast specials, lunch specials, dinner and late night meals. No joke!
Phil TorontoApril 30, 2017One of my favorite Korean spots in NYC 🇰🇷 excellent budae jigae and an awesome soundtrack to go with your meal 🎶
ElizaDecember 28, 2018The Hae Mool Cheese Ddukbokki may be spicy, but you'll find yourself digging into this cheesy dish and wishing you'd order another to bring home.
TomDecember 25, 2017The kimchi fried rice with egg and cheese, galbi, and ogam gulgukbab are a must try. There's always a line so expect a wait and arrive with whole party to be seated.
Mabel SoJuly 22, 2019Amazing food especially if you care about your health and want to eat kimchi, fish and bone broth. I feel nourishing after I go there
Gina KimJuly 16, 2015Jjumok bokkun (jjukkumi & moksal i.e. Baby octopus and pork fries) is da bomb. Spicy and smokey! Fried ramen noodles was just okay. They gave a free chicken wing taster which was delicious.- Gabriel AgostiniNovember 21, 2020Kimchi fried rice, budaejigae (army soup) and nakji anything. Portions are really big so get one of the bigger dishes and split it with a date!
- Kimmie OhhMarch 8, 2021Order their budae jjigae, their “army stew” soup with kimchi, sausage, ham, Berkshire pork belly, bacon, tofu, tteok (rice cake) & ramen .
Mingfei YanApril 27, 2016Get the cheese beef rice! Seafood hotpot is great too. Big portion and very fast service.- Kimmie OhhMarch 8, 2021Splurge on the dol pan kimchi bokum bap, basically their signature kimchi fried rice with choice of protein served on a sizzling stone pan with egg & mozzarella cheese.
dawn.in.newyorkJanuary 3, 2016It is good to have various kinds of Korean food menu in one place, but for specific ones, such as bbq, tofu soup and oxtail soup, there are much better options nearby.
Seafood pancake and kimchi fried rice is where it's at
Mike KujanekSeptember 4, 2015Nice new interior and design, but the noise bounces off the walls making it soo loud to hear anyone even next to you. Otherwise very clean, fast, attentive service. Dishes are overpriced. Worth a try.
Asha TranApril 21, 2017Definitely recommend the seafood tteokbokki! It can get quite crowded here during meal times, but you won't have to wait long.
KarenAugust 28, 2018The food is AMAZING. Definitely get the pork belly. Also, the seafood pancake is just top notch.
Go Find AliceApril 29, 2016Authentic Korean food! Hotpot, kimchi fried rice, seafood pancake - order away!
Mayank MahajanSeptember 26, 2018Hot stone pot bibimbap is great. Budae jiigae was a little oily but still well spiced and huge portions.
Jin MoonJune 22, 2016Like all Ktown BBQ places, the place is too crowded and the service kind of rushes you to finish your meal. The pork BBQ was pretty good but pretty expensive for a non-grill meal.
The Galbi was really good but also overpriced! I followed everyone's tip and get the kimchi rice. It did not disappoint!
Michael BalesJuly 18, 2015Try the dol pan kimchi bokum bap, kimchi fried rice served on a sizzling stone pan. You won't be disappointed.
If you want something on the lighter side, go for the ogam salad or the abonim galbi tang!
Mary ChanJune 12, 2017Great ban chan. Han jang sal + neang myun (cold noodles!) lunch special is good.
Rachel ChengJune 23, 2018One of the fastest restaurants i’ve ever been in, in regarding both food and service!
- Mike KujanekSeptember 4, 2015Found many of the dishes to be wayyy overpriced! Galbi at $35, the signature Kimchi Rice (a side dish made an entree) at $18. Comparing to the old Kunjip or BCD, the small dishes are lacking too.
