50 Best Korean Restaurants near Bronx

“我想問如果要坐輪椅。有沒有升降電梯的“

“Ordered something light. Sweet and sour chicken with Pork Fried rice. It was honestly the best around I’ve ever had. Good chicken, tender pork. Really impressed. My new go to in the area. Dead a$$. Dude behind the counter was friendly and chill.“

“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.“

“The food was really good. All of it was made well and for the most part amazing service. My only issue was the white hostess told us there were no tables and seated us right by the door completely cramped. Asking another waiter he was able to move us and said we need to be done at 8 as the table was reserved. This was at 6, showing the hostess just did not seat us well and communicate properly. If seated there we were ready to leave, but because the other staff were competent, we stayed and enjoyed good food. My other issue is as the tables are small we could only eat one plate at a time. Otherwise, it was very good! I just wish the hostess did not ruin the experience from the get go, with her incompetence.“

“Amazing and inventive Korean food in the East Village. Must-have starter is the scallop DIY gimbap where you create your own bites with seaweed. Great combination of sauces gives it an incredible umami mouthfeel.

For entrees, dolsot al-bop has the uni flavor in the form of bibimbop, served in a sizzling bowl. And the fried soft-shell crab is to die for.

Only complaint is feeling rushed by servers to clear plates and present the bill before being asked.“

“Amazing experience . Great hospitality and amazing food“

“very good food excellent service great bbq fj“

“I feel guilty for wanting this place all to myself because it's so good. The staff handled my children's requests with grace. This place distinguishes itself clearly. Their menu offerings and service quality merit top rating. You should taste what this spot offers once.“

“Seoul Salon is such a trendy and aesthetic restaurant and the food didn't disappoint. I'd definitely recommend making reservations because it was all packed for a Thursday dinner. To start the meal, they give this crispy ramen cracker snack with a hot sauce drizzled on top and it was so nostalgic to the snacks I used to eat when I was younger. The whole menu looked so delicious, but I ended up trying the Soy Scallop with Gim Rice, Rose Tteokbokki with Gimmari, and the Seoul Salon Fried Chicken. The soy scallops were fresh and full of flavor. The Gim rice paired perfectly with the scallops as well. The Rose tteokbokki reminded me of eating a margherita pizza because of the cheese and basil toppings with the sauce. Iloved the Gimmari that came with the dish; it was nicely fried and dipping it into the sauce was perfection. The fried chicken took me by surprise. The batter was so crispy and airy and the chicken was so juicy and flavorful. The sauce had a good spice kick and it was only drizzled lightly on half of the chicken, so none of the chicken got soggy and it's great for people who can't handle the spice. Overall had a great experience at Seoul Salon. I would come back again and again.“

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

“The food is delicious😊“

“lots of food for a good price!“

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

“My friend and I made a reservation for Gurumé at 7pm on a Saturday. I would recommend making a reservation if you are dining around this time, as it was packed! However, the crowd had dissipated by 8:30pm, so if you're looking for a later evening bite, it's definitely slower. I would also recommend not dining at peak hours because it was so loud. Decor is your average, upscale vibes, but the tables are really close together to maximize the amount of people in the space.

We ordered crispy corn and cheese ($14), oyster mushroom taco ($17), berkshire kimchi fried rice ($19), scallop crudo ($19), and pork & radish "bossam" ($19). We also ordered the black sesame bread pudding for dessert ($11). Overall, the food was flavored well and tasty. You're paying entree prices for appetizer portions, but it makes sense for the location. If I came back, I would skip the kimchi fried rice and scallop crudo. The fried rice was nothing special, and I have had better experiences with simpler ingredients; the scallop crudo was overpowered by the other flavors, losing the taste of the scallop. The bossam was so moist and juicy, with fantastic natural flavoring, though the other components did enhance the flavor. I would only recommend the corn if you are a corn lover and none of the other appetizers appeal to you. The mushroom taco had a great combination of flavors and the spice kick was mild. If you're a dessert person, the bread pudding was delectable, great black sesame flavor and the bread was also moist.

Service was outstanding. We were originally seated next to a large party, and they later moved us to a table further away where it was quieter. There were many checkbacks throughout the evening, and they definitely make you feel like you are valued as a customer. I would recommend Gurumé for a fancy night out and people in your party can talk loudly.“

“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.“

“Moono became one of my favorite spots in NYC. My wife and I tried it after a last minute reservation and I have to say it was amazing. Moono offers a perfect mix of elegant ambience, flavorful modern Korean dishes, and attentive service. It was great dining experience!“

“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.“

“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“

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

“A truly delightful dining experience with small plates that don’t disappoint. We particularly loved the tartare, with finely diced tomato and a well balanced ginger sesame dressing. It’s hard to believe that the words “great beet hummus” but trust me! Also the persimmon salad with yuzu yogurt - wow. We also really enjoyed the play on a bagel and cream cheese for dessert - very fun and a great punch of flavors with the homemade strawberry jam. Will def return!

Pro tip: the bathroom is a must visit.“

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

“Great times and great ambience!“

“Love their Korean-inspired pizza options as well as their more traditional Korean dishes, such as their cheese corn and kimchi pancake! They also have great beer and soju deals, so Appas is a perfect spot for a casual sit-down dinner before a night out.“

“Nice soup 🍜 delicious .....“

“Bottom line: Enjoy eating and drinking your way through Seoul BAP's menu!!

The food was flavorful and had a nice twist on some Korean classics. Beautifully plated, too. Our favorites were...
* corn cheese
* galbi jjim
* bulgogi bibimbap
* bulgogi japchae
Go hungry because the portions sneak up on you!

Service was considerate, prompt and super respectful. From the hostess to all the waitstaff, everyone was great with our group.

Ambiance was chill-sexy. Would be great for a group with the back area perfect for a happy hour/cocktail hour party--or even an intimate date!

Looking forward to going again soon!“

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

“This was one of the places my friend who moved to LA had to come back to during her visit.

They have the best rice cake and sausage (소떡소떡) I’ve had from a chicken shop. The rice cake is the perfect level of crispiness. The sausage is a normal Frankfurt sausage instead of the Korean ones but it’s still okay because their sauce is perfect. Even before eating the chicken, I can tell this is going to be amazing. They have great combo deals which are great for groups and they also give free Cajun fries (which are also good and fresh) a review! Definitely worth trying.“

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

“Olle is a charming and well-regarded Korean restaurant located in a busy area of Manhattan. The ambiance is elegant, with modern decor that complements the traditional Korean cuisine served with a contemporary twist. The dishes are well-presented, and the menu offers great options for those looking for an authentic Korean BBQ experience. Service was friendly and efficient, making the meal enjoyable. It’s definitely worth a visit for anyone wanting to explore Korean flavors in a stylish and comfortable setting.“

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

“Great food. Good service.“

“Fabulous! They had two Michelin stars in Seoul, and they shine in NYC. They received only one as soon as they opened this year. The wine pairing program is also on point.
Don't get thrown by the freight elevator entry, it's part of the streetscape transition to enter heaven!“

“I've had the privilege to dine in many amazing restaurants around the globe and even privately in the kitchen of some famous chefs. I can say with absolute authority that this was one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. Absolutely amazing from first bite to last! Make sure to opt-in for the savory beignet as well. It was superlative. I'll be envious of anyone getting to dine here until I have a chance to come back again!“

“Delicious food, the soondubu and bibimbap were SO flavorful, as were all the banchan. Soondubu is not too spicy at all, I actually appreciate a more mild soup right now. Service did forget I asked for purple rice, but they came back and apologized, asking if I still wanted it (I honestly didn't mind either way, but appreciate them remembering).“

“Went on a Wednesday night at around 7 PM and was super busy! Filled with mainly younger people and the vibe was extremely nice. We got the beef tartare, chapaguri fried rice, soy-glazed bossam, and the frozen makgeolli for dessert! Only got a picture of the beef tartare and chapaguri :(, but everything was good nonetheless.

We did find the garlic bossam a bit too oily for our liking but it was good and finished all our plates. The service was great - I noticed that there were probably a lot of reservations as servers were quick to clear off empty tables and set them up for the next guests. Would highly recommend and I would go back to try some other dishes!“

“The food is awe inspiring.“

“LOVE Korean BBQ delivers a top-tier dining experience that stands out among New York City’s Korean barbecue spots. From the moment you step in, the vibrant atmosphere and welcoming staff set the stage for an unforgettable meal.

The food here is simply outstanding. Each cut of meat is of the highest quality, from the tender, perfectly marinated galbi to the flavorful bulgogi. The grilling process, done right at your table, enhances the freshness and authenticity of the experience. The sides (banchan) are equally impressive, offering a variety of flavors that complement the grilled meats beautifully. Every bite showcases the care and expertise put into the preparation of the dishes.

The service is exceptional. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly, ensuring every detail is just right. They’re happy to guide you through the menu, offer recommendations, and even help with grilling at the table if you’re new to Korean BBQ. Their enthusiasm and professionalism elevate the meal to a truly special occasion.

The ambiance is lively and modern, making it perfect for everything from a fun night out with friends to a celebratory dinner. The curated drink menu, featuring creative cocktails and a great selection of soju and beer, rounds out the experience perfectly.

LOVE Korean BBQ is a must-visit for anyone craving incredible food and outstanding service in a vibrant setting. Whether you’re a Korean BBQ enthusiast or trying it for the first time, this place will exceed your expectations. Highly recommended!“

“I gorged myself on raw marinated crab here- probably a little too much because it was so good! My other favorites were the seafood pancake, sweet corn dessert, and white grape soju. Great place to go if you're booking for a large party! We were 25.“

“Found this place by coincidence, but it turns out to be one of the best handroll places I visited in NYC. The restaurant is structured as bar seatings. Every handroll was made and served one.

The rice was well seasoned, and every roll was delicious. The menu was a bit limited, but that also makes it very simple and friendly for someone who doesn't know what to order on their first visit.

The price was moderate. If you are a fan of handrolls, you should give it a try.“

“Coqodaq in NYC was definitely buzzing — it’s not easy getting a reservation, we had to put our names in and wait around 2 hours for a table for two. The vibe inside is a unique blend of club and restaurant, giving it a lively, energetic atmosphere. We started with a delicious consommé that set a good tone, and I appreciated the selection of ban chan-style appetizers. But of course, the real star is the fried chicken, which Coqodaq is known for. The gochujang wings were the standout for me, packed with flavor and the perfect kick of spice. The other flavors, though, didn’t leave as much of an impression. Overall, I’d say it was a good experience, but I’m not entirely convinced it’s worth the hassle of scoring a table. The food was solid, especially the gochujang wings, but with the effort it takes to get in, I’m not sure it’s something I’d go out of my way for again.“

“Situated in a tranquil neighborhood near Fort Lee, NJ, this restaurant offers a delightful dining experience that feels like a hidden gem. The beef short ribs were a standout, cooked to perfection with a tenderness that melts in the mouth. The sauce and seasoning complemented the meat impeccably, adding depth without overpowering the natural flavors. Equally impressive were the cold noodles, which brought a refreshing and unique combination of flavors and textures, making for an ideal contrast to the rich short ribs. Visiting on a quiet Sunday afternoon, I found the atmosphere serene and the service attentive and courteous. This is a spot well worth a visit for those seeking exceptional Korean cuisine in a relaxed setting.“

“Absolutely fantastic service from the entire team, top notch food, high value for what you’re paying for. I would not be surprised if they get a 2 star soon. I loved the thoughtful touches for my fiancé’s birthday (card, candle, cake). The wine pairing, which we only did one of, was also really generous pours which was so nice of our sommelier and our server.

The food speaks for itself. The steak is perfectly cooked, and the caviar on top of the sirloin was a really nice combo. My favorites were the little appetizers in the beginning that were all super unique but somehow worked together in the order we ate them.

We both got the extra A5 Wagyu course, which was great and came with Uni salt! I got pretty full with my own portion so if you’re not as hungry I’d split a portion with someone else.“

“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“

“Overall, the food was tasty, the grilled chicken feet was a bit too spicy for some people. The portion was pretty satisfying. The only thing is that they included taxes in the total but didn't indicate that on the bill, so I calculated the tips based on the total, which means I gave extra tips…“

“Delicious food! Great addition to forest hills. Friendly staff“

“Came in a group of 3 on a Sunday night which was perfect as there was no wait time. We ordered a total of 8 dishes which were shared and came out to $80 pp with tip included. This place is tapas style so each dish is meant to be shared. In my opinion there were some dishes like the Berkshire ribs and oxtail spring rolls that felt a bit underwhelming (they weren’t bad they were just ok).The rest of the dishes were yummy and the winner of the night was the lobster roll (we ordered it twice!). Overall it’s a good spot to try and have a bite. My rank goes: rice dish (had a tiny kick to it ) > lobster roll > dumpling > scallop > ribs > spring rolls“

“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!“

“Amazing quality prix fixe for only $42! The menu rotates seasonally (I had summer), and the food was Michelin ⭐️ level. Perfect for 2 people to pick two selections per course and try all the options. Loved the amuse bouche, Kong Guk soo, and the branzino the best! Staff also incredibly friendly. Portions are very small (but understanding for the price), I’ll add a couple of additional courses next time!“

“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.“
