“Seoul Salon, as described by them, is a Sool Jib inspired Korean restaurant with a modern take on Korean alcohol and Korean foods.

The vibe itself was nice, dim but not too loud, even with the edm/club music playing. The tables can feel a bit cramped, but it wasn't overbearing and we could talk even with all the background noise.

The food was phenomenal, well priced and well portioned for sharing. We got the octopus kimbap, soy scallop with gim rice, and the raw marinated crab noodles.

The Banchan was a ramen snack with ketchup, a good palate cleanser and tasty.

The octopus kimbap was good, we didn’t think it was outstanding but it did taste good. The octopus was a bit uneven in the dish though, as some of our pieces had no octopus while others had a lot.

The raw marinated crabs were a highlight, with a large portion of noodles accompanying it. As per their instruction, we mixed the raw crab meat into the noodles, which elevated the already tasty crab and noodles to make a spicy yet delicious noodle dish. The spice was a little on the spicier side, but nothing too spicy.

A highlight was the soy scallop with gim rice. It had a great taste to it, a great portion of scallop, and each part of the dish worked perfectly together.

The price is also really good for all the food we got, probably one of the highest quality meals we've gotten at the price we paid.“

“Very good food. Great service, friendly staff and waitress. I recommend the fried chicken, and the kimchi fried rice. The black sesame pudding, as a dessert, was insanely delicious and buttery. Super good.
Brussel sprouts were very tasty. Tteokbokki dish was very interesting and a good interpretation of a creamy, rich pasta-like dish (a bit like a creamy Mac & cheese with everything seasoning). Enjoyed every dish.
Matcha beer was fine, but would opt for a regular beer or cocktail next time.“

“Really good food. Unique service and prices are the best. I totally recommend if you want a real Korean bbq. I travel from Connecticut to flushing NY totally worth it.“

“The care and creative that’s put into each dish is superb. The pre-fix is an excellent deal. And it’s fam friendly even though the food is avant-garde in style. Nice service.“

“This is the todo spicy Kim chi hot pot & The rice cakes with vegetables and Tofu“

“Amazing food and wonderful friendly service. Even our youngest kid found something he liked (soy-ginger chicken wings and they were delicious!) We tried several different tapas and entrées and they were all great.“

“after my sister’s graduation, we decided to go to Olle, making same day reservations for 8 people. A staff texted us to confirm and was accommodating when we said one more person was coming (and if we needed a high chair for the child). The servers were very friendly and spoke korean, checked up on our tables if we needed anything and if we needed refills for the banchan (there was some tteokbokki too). The hot soups/stews were comforting and delicious. The bibimbap was so pretty (my sister finished that and cleaned the bowl lol). And the cold noodles were great too! it wasn’t too loud so we didn’t have to yell at each other. It was my third time here but for everyone else it was their first and their experience here left a good impression!“

“Amazing experience tonight enjoying the bar menu. The team created a pitch perfect vibe, it felt like I was at a dinner party with friends (who just happen to be wizards at food and wine tasting menus). The service was exceptional: friendly and familiar yet still very high standard when it came to the details just as any other restaurant of this level. The food had some really standout dishes and the drinks pairings were so boldly experimental and amazing. I won't soon forget my experience at Atomix.“

“We came at 5 PM on a Wednesday and it was calm and peaceful. The food tasted clean with a focus on the ingredients natural flavor. The chicken was fried very well and it's taste was fairly light with a hint of MSG. The galbi-jjim was tender and youll find yourself dipping it back in the sauce after each bite. Nothing was excessive in flavor which might be a downside for someone expecting heavy pocha style flavors. Even the kimchi wasn't too sour and had a crunch to it. It's unique and healthy, plus the place is gorgeous and a great place for a date.“

“Our experience at Hojokban was such a blast! The food is delicious, staff is friendly in a cute and cozy environment. The go to dish is definitely Hojok Galbi, it’s very flavorful and the meat is so tender falling off the bone. A must try dish if it’s your first time! Octopus tteokbikki is good too, spicy and sweet to open up the appetite. We finish the meal with a tiramisu with orange flavor twist, it wasn’t too sweet, just enough to refresh your palette! Would come back to try more for sure :)“

“Beautiful it an amazing place and genesis is my dream car the bloom tonic was amazing all the cars are so cute the staff is amazing never had the food to expensive without knowing how it truly taste but the overall car experience is so worth checking out if u are in ny“

“visit this place twice this month, the kids love it a lot. many different type of rice cakes 🍠 yam rice cake us my favorite 😍“

“This dining experience at Joo Ok made our trip to New York extra special🫶 Your excitement starts with you making the reservation. The unique elevator literally elevates the excitement. The food, can’t say another word, just perfect. And it doesn’t stop until you get home since you get a little bag of their special tea at the end. The staff were spectacular. The Empire State Building was right by the window glowing making the dinner very memorable. Highly recommended!“

“Food is the BEST. I love the tripe soup a lot, the rice wine, and the bulgogi. They provided some cold dishes like kimchi in the beginning which also tastes amazing. I love this place so much and the owner (I think) is super nice and friendly.“

“Great times and great ambience!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of My Favorite Korean Restaurants! Seoul BAP is not just another Korean restaurant — the food is absolutely amazing! Every dish is full of rich, authentic Korean flavors with a modern twist. It’s truly one of the best Korean dining spots in the city. The cocktail menu is just as exciting — featuring creative drinks that perfectly match the vibe and flavor of the food. 🍹 Spicy Passionfruit Margarita – bold and vibrant with a Korean-inspired kick. 🥃 Bourbon Bee Hive – smooth, rich, and full of depth. 💜 Lavender Skies – crafted with premium gin infused with butterfly pea flower and lavender, finished with a touch of Amaro — simply elegant. And the newest favorite everyone’s asking for: 🌺 Midnight Hibiscus – a hibiscus-infused vodka cocktail with elderflower and gentle sweetness. It’s beautifully balanced and pairs perfectly with Seoul BAP’s contemporary Korean cuisine. Best enjoyed with Taylor Swift’s Opalite playing in the background! 🎶✨ Come check out Seoul BAP — where Seoul meets style, flavor, and good vibes all in one place.“

“We had dinner reservations with 2 other couples and chose the premium all you can eat option - it is well worth it. Quality and service (our server was Mario) is 10 out of 10. Highly recommend for families and/or friends. Excellent halal option.“

“I enjoyed the BBQ here. Our server is super friendly. Haven't eaten BBQ in a while so we all crave for it and it's a perfect time to take my son's gf who visited us here in NY. Definitely recommend this restaurant. We all enjoyed it. Cheers 🥂🍾🥓🥩“

“Great place to decompress, Service is A+.“

“If you're craving a comforting bowl of soondubu soup, this place delivers. The tofu is super soft and silk, and theres the option to switch white rice for purple rice! The ambiance is casual, perfect for grabbing a meal with groups. Big plus for the parking in the back.“

“Nice soup 🍜 delicious .....“

“Brilliant Korean spread at Cho Dang Gol in midtown Manhatten. Specializes in tofu dishes so we plumped for the spicy tofu hotpot but also ordered some tasty beef and zucchini pancakes and spicy gochujang chicken. This eatery features on the Michelin guide and is always packed, and rightly so! Maybe a little on the sweeter side for my taste but isn’t everything in the USA? 😜 Regardless, it was stupid tasty and we inhaled everything“

“We through the bartenders were especially great“

“so fresh. highly recommend everything on the menu is so good“

“This spot is a bit of a hole in the wall. It's cozy but elegant. One thing to note, is it's definitely Korean forward cuisine vs. Japanese which does contribute to the overall flavor profiles. We got the 5 hand roll set along with the scallop crudo and Janchi Guksu. For the handrolls the fatty tuna was a favorite, while the shrimp was a miss. It was like a cold shrimp salad. The scallop crudo was delicious, and the Janchi Guksu was a little too fishy for my taste.
Overall this place is worth giving a try, but I think I may personally stick to Japanese handrolls.“

“Plenty of parking, good food, good vibes.“

“All the side dishes were great, especially the oyster kimchi was the real highlight 🦪🙆‍♀️

Everything tasted super fresh, and you have to try the galbijjim and braised kimchi with pork bones 🥹 so good! The galbijjim is a bit spicy 🌶️ but it balances the richness perfectly :)

Great atmosphere too 🙌 perfect for bringing your parents :)
Next time, I’m getting the galbijjim with noodles and fried rice for sure! 😋“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Came to KPOT BBQ for the food and left raving about the entire experience. The food was great, fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you hope for when you walk into a place like this. But somehow the service was even better. Shoutout to Stella, our server, who absolutely made the night. Attentive, friendly, funny, and on top of everything without ever hovering. She handled our table like a pro and cooked some of our food for us too! , even while I was clearly having the time of my life and probably making a bit of a spectacle of myself. Stella, if you’re reading this, thank you for making an already great meal unforgettable. And if by some chance you felt the same good vibes, feel free to reach out. Either way, KPOT BBQ has a customer for life.“

“Authentic, Korean hole-in-the-wall with both classic and unique dishes to try. From pork belly & galbi to eel, duck, and intestines, there's something for everyone. We especially especially enjoyed the set menu with the beef stomach & duck that came out with some delicious complimentary sides like steamed eggs & soup. Delicious banchan and amazing service. Highly recommend!“

“This restaurant honestly deserves more than one Michelin star!!!!

From the beautiful interior to the stunning plating, everything was amazing—and the food tasted absolutely heavenly. Even the word “luxury” feels too small for this place.

If anyone asks me for a Michelin restaurant recommendation in New York, this would be my number one pick without hesitation. For a special day with a special person, you really don’t need to think twice about where to go.

It was the happiest birthday meal I could have asked for, and one I’ll never forget.
I’m already trying to book another reservation soon. It was even better than I expected.“

“Got the half mozzarella, half beef dog with the potato coating and it hit the spot. Super crispy on the outside, cheesy and juicy on the inside. It is one of those things where you take a bite and immediately want another.

Edit: I wish it came with a full beef dog instead of just half, and the kimchi fries didn’t include enough fries or kimchi for what we paid.“

“The atmosphere was great, perfect for hanging out with a few friends for some drinks in the evening. We ordered army stew and egg casserole, both of which were delicious. My favorite was their chicken feet; they were spicy but incredibly tasty.“

“I love this place! This small take out only restaurant is fast, friendly, delicious and very affordable! The husband and wife team have it streamlined. I only wish they were opened more days and more hours as they only cater to a M -F lunch crowd and school children.“

“This place was on my bucket list and the wait on Monday night wasn’t too bad. We waited for 20 minutes and got seated right away. The food was comforting and the dweji gomtang lives up to its reputation. I would say it was not as good as I expected it to be but it was still very delicious.“

“I had the pleasure of eating at this restaurant and taking part in the Korean BBQ experience and I was left speechless! Our server, Kevin, was phenomenal! He was very attentive and made sure all of our meats were cooked to perfection. We watched him handle numerous tables with ease! He is clearly a master at his craft and we can not wait to return. 10/10!“

“delicious food, unparalleled attention, I really recommend it 100%“

“The food was delicious , service and staff were so attentive and accommodating , conveniently located a few blocks from Time Square .It is definitely a must in your next visit to NY .“

“This food Court has Korean food for under $12. Everything is pre made. You can warm the food up in the microwave. There are tables to eat at. We got beef bulgogi , fish cake, kimbap and tokayi. It was a decent meal for the price“

“Korean marinated crabs, shrimp, abalone and other more tradition dishes as well as a seafood tower. The bagged drinks were good, but preferred the simple sweet rice drink. The place is packed and smells great, but pretty loud. Gloves are provided to handle the marinated items, also ordered pork stew, rice chirashi and pancakes. Ok service, a bit lagging to get the bill and pay.“

“This place is seriously amazing! The portions are huge — honestly enough for two people — and the prices are super affordable. On top of that, the food tastes great. Everything is well-seasoned and fresh. Definitely great value for the money. I’ll be coming back for sure (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)♡“

“I never had food like this before on how it was prepared and im a born and bred New Yorker. Gary the owner is a real stand up guy . I had the Bulgogi in the paper wrap and it was AMAZING. I even went back into the store to let Gary know 1st hand that it was awesome. Thanks again and DEFINATLEY looking foward in having this again.Since I couldn't add another review cause I just came here again for the 2nd day in a row. I'll just add to this review. Gary again shows he's a stand up person . This food is ABSOLUTLY INCREDIBLE. I came here again today and haven't stopped coming since day 1. This is over the 30th time now that I came here“
