“Went to this location to get my Korean fried chicken and cheese balls yesterday everything was so good! The chicken was super crispy and flavorful, and the cheese balls were perfectly gooey inside. The staff were friendly too, and the service was quick. Definitely coming back again!“

“Amazing, unique and delicious food in a very cozy setting. Be prepared to meet your neighbors as you adventure through one delicious plate after another.“

“very good food excellent service great bbq fj“

“Amazing experience . Great hospitality and amazing food“

“Absolutely wonderful without qualification. The interior design stands out. The staff member had a great outlook and ensured our first visit was entirely pleasant. The cooking remains impressive and the service stays professional. The meals were delicious, staff was responsive, and our time there was pleasant.“

“The flavors were sublime, I can see why so many chefs recommend it!“

“The food is delicious😊“

“lots of food for a good price!“

“The FOOD is fabulous. Great flavor combinations, beautifully plated, unusual but tasty food, perfect portions. I loved everything we ordered.“

“The food is delicious and the service remarkably and memorably friendly and attentive without being overbearing. We started with the brussels, which have a sweet vinaigrette dressing and are cooked perfectly. The ribs were meaty, not fatty, with flavorful spicing. The corn and cheese is a surprise --- on the cob, but with chili powder. But the highlight was the kimchi fried rice, a uniquely delicious and satisfying dish topped by a perfectly poached egg. We closed the main courses with seafood kalguksu, a slightly spicy noodle soup with all kinds of seafood. Best seafood broth ever. Period Every other table had the black sesame bread pudding, so we decided to try it. They were right. Don't think about the huge volume of butter involved. All in all, small plates with huge flavors served by a wonderful wait team. Thanks Gurumé.“

“Hojokban is great. Had a 1pm reservation, came a little early and that had no issue seating us. Staff was friendly and accommodating. All the food I ordered was great.

Ramen Fried Rice - delicious probably favorite item on its own
Soy Glazed Bossam - pairs great with the perilla oil noodle
Perilla Oil Noodles
Truffle Potato Pancake - Worth trying, I probably wouldn't order again though.“

“Finally went to Moono and it delivered. Each dish held its own with unique flavors. We had a la carte among four of us with a bottle of makeoli and were happily filled with 1 appetizer and 3 entrees. We ordered an extra bowl of white rice which is the move as so many dishes had excellent sauces that you just wanted to soak up with rice, plus the white rice itself is perfect with a sweetness to it.

We had Hoe Muchim + Kim, Beef Hotpot, Mushroom Sotbap, and Galbijjim. It was outstanding from the cold cucumber soup at the beginning to the end. Beef hotpot is great for those who appreciate that pure beef taste and experience- it is lightly seasoned and in my opinion a great contrast to the big flavors of Galbijjim. Galbijjim is a crowd pleaser and easy to enjoy, it is a most indulgent version with meat removed from the bones. We only wished the dish were layered with more vegetables / mushrooms, which were not side characters in this dish. Sotbap was fragrant - only wished that they scooped out the crispy bits, which are the best parts. Maybe they can offer guests the option to serve themselves rather than take away and return with the scooped out bowls for each person.

Also would love to see more makgeolli options on the drinks menu.

Can’t wait to return!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“This is one of the most delicious restaurants I've ever been to, and the service is worth it!“

“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“

“I had the chance to check out Seoul bap in the city and glad i did. We ordered a few different items and a couple drinks so we could taste a variety of things. We started off with drinks, mine was pretty strong they do not skimp on the alcohol.
For appetizers we had the korean fried chicken and corn cheese. The kfc was nice and crispy with a nice kick to it. The corn cheese was delicious and even had a spicy cauliflower in it that gave it some flare.
For main courses we did the famous galbi jjim - this is a must! It is tender fall of the bone perfection, the sauce is divine and the parsnip puree completes it. The spicy pork wasn't that spicy which I preferred and was good on its own. And then the burrata tteokbokki, what a combo! The burrata really added a nice cooling touch to the spicy sauce, really great pairing.
We ended dinner with black Sesame ice cream which was very velvety.
The restaurant is very nicely lit, great atmosphere and the staff was so sweet and welcoming!“

“Great times and great ambience!“

“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!“

“Got a last minute reservation, was 10 minutes late, but still accommodated quickly with no issues. It was busy when we came, but the service was still very prompt.

We came for a light dinner and got the cold noodles and a bossam plate. The cold noodles, EXCEPTIONAL. We are all cold noodle fanatics and a lot of restaurants in k-town are hit or miss with cold noodles specifically. Bossam plate was also very delicious, though I do agree with some of the reviews that it is a bit overpriced for the portion size.

Very glad I came across this restaurant when I input ‘best cold noodles NYC.’ Will definitely be back!“

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

“Nōksu is incredible! Every dish looks amazing and tastes even better — full of unique flavors that really stand out. The service is super friendly and professional, and the whole experience feels special without being too fancy. It’s one of those places you’ll keep thinking about after you leave. Definitely worth it! 🍽️✨“

“It was a little bit overrated if considering the price. Everything was fine but nothing stood out.

The signature soup rice was mild. For me it was a little bit watery, like the meat/ bone was not cooked into the soup.

Kimchi dumplings were delicious. The skin was pliable even it was thin. Kimchi has a nice flavor too.“

“Solid handroll spot from the team behind Mari.

After a great dinner at Mari, I had high hopes for this sister concept. Came in for a late weekday lunch and the counter still had plenty of open seats.

I went with the 5-roll set and a yellowtail sashimi app. Everything was fairly priced and the handrolls were solid, but not the best I’ve had in this range. One detail I loved wasn’t the fish, but the sauces. Every seat came stocked with four house-made options, and the mustard soy and chili soy really added the flavors I wanted for the rolls.

Not sure I’d pick this over some of the city’s lower-cost lunch omakase spots, but if you’re after something more filling than a poke bowl and less of a commitment than omakase, this is a great option.“

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

“Reservations weren’t easy to snag, but the food was absolutely worth it, and surprisingly affordable. I ordered the Bucket List and tried one of each of the caviar nuggets, and everything was amazing. Perfect spot for a night out. Service was a 10/10. The staff at the front acknowledged us right away and had us seated quickly. Nothing felt rushed, and the servers were consistently attentive throughout the meal.“

“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“

“This restaurant specializes in Seoul-style bulgogi, which has a delightful sweetness that really stands out. The service was fantastic, and I especially appreciated the generous refills of banchan, which added to the overall dining experience.“

“bōm is amazing! The food is full of rich, bold flavors and cooked perfectly — every dish feels fresh and thoughtful. The presentation is beautiful without being fussy. The space is cozy and modern, and the staff are friendly and attentive. It’s a great place for anyone who loves high-quality food with real attention to detail.“

“So much meat but so good. Comforting korean establishment with premium meat. Its best to go with a group to help eat the glutinous meal you are about to endure. We also got the egg souffle as a side dish and it was the most fluffiest eggs I've ever had.“

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

“such a fun spot! The staff is so friendly and nice and talk you through the whole process. They also suggest different things for you to try- felt very well looked after.
The food is great. i have been here a few times and have no other KBBQ places to compare it to, but it’s always delicious!!
Love it.“

“This place is GREAT!

We were craving for some ttukbokki and kimbop, decided to try for a new place.

Their kimbop is delicious, great fillings and well seasoned seaweed.

Ttukbokki came out nice and hot. Rice cake was nicely cooked and seasoned. But come on, look at the boiled egg, it’s not one of those overcooked yolk!!

Ramyun and udon was also delicious, noodles were done jussssssst right. I will admit that I was a little thrown off by mixed greens on ramyun.

Donkatsu was one of the best as well. Pork was just the right amount of thickness and crispy.

I also don’t feel like crap after eating the food there, not over seasoned with high sodium or MSG.

People were also great there, highly highly recommend it!“

“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“

“very enjoyable meal today at lunchtime. thr staff were amazing helping us pick and choose. service a+“

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

“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.“

“Friendly helpful staff that kept us well supplied with meat!“

“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 .“

“I loved everything within my experience at HYUN! Service is excellent, food is excellent and the environment is awesome! I anticipate coming back as soon as possible.“

“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“

“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.“

“Visited on Wednesday night to celebrate mine and my husbands wedding that day and as soon as we walked in we were greeted by lovely friendly staff. We were seated quickly and were introduced to our server. The atmosphere was amazing and the food was fantastic. We opted for the Korean bacon to start and we both had the butchers feast. Outstanding. The steak was beautiful and the dishes that came with it were amazing too. The short rib and egg soufflé were my favourite. Thank you for letting us celebrate our wedding day in your restaurant.“

“Tosokchon NYC is a total gem in Manhattan! I was blown away by the delicious Korean dishes. The ox tail soup was absolutely incredible—so flavorful and comforting. The pork soup rice was also a standout, with a rich broth and tender meat.

The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a meal with friends or family. I even celebrated the Spring Festival here, and the restaurant had a great festive vibe. Plus, their second anniversary lunch sets are such a good deal, offering a variety of tasty options at reasonable prices.

It's conveniently located, easy to get to by subway, and the service is friendly. Whether you're craving authentic Korean food or just looking for a great dining experience, Tosokchon NYC won't disappoint! Highly recommend. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“had such a wonderful experience at O’Go on Broadway! The atmosphere was welcoming, the service was top-notch, and everything was handled with such care and attention. You can really tell they put pride into what they do. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great spot in the area!“

“여기 뒤지게 맛있습니다.. 진짜 짱!!! 강추입니다!!

This chicken was insanely good. Every bite was crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. Honestly, it was so delicious it should be illegal. I've had a lot of chicken in my life, but this one? Next level. Absolute flavor explosion. 10/10 — would fight someone for the last piece.“

“What can I say? it's my brethren's restaurant. I would def go back to try the other items on the menu“
