“The food is always amazing. The staff is friendly. The prices are great. Rae’s coming to Independence has been great for my breakfast adventures.“

“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.“

“This is my first time here all the way from Newtown, Connecticut, and it Definitely did not disappoint. The atmosphere, the food, and of course, the wonderful service. Aymaan Was our server, and I’ve eaten at many restaurants and this is by far one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. He was on top of everything, and treated us with tons of respect. I asked him multiple questions and he was able to answer them at the top of his head. A very kind, hard-working young man.“

“Hidden gem in FLS for Korean fried chicken 🤯

Went with a friend and ordered two combos—great value and basically covers everything you’d want 😋

🍗 Wings + drumsticks were super juicy with a thin, crispy coating. Tons of sauce options—Soy Garlic is a must, and Yummy Red has a real kick (even the medium is spicy 🥵 but so addictive).

🍗 Boneless combo was also solid—got it with a bun and turned it into a chicken sandwich 🍔 so satisfying. The tteokbokki was chewy and flavorful, and adding ramen made it even better.

They also have other Korean dishes, plus mocktails and beer. Definitely a great late-night spot 🔥“

“Nice soup 🍜 delicious .....“

“SEOUL TOFU is a solid option if you’re craving some good old-fashioned Korean food. This replaced Witch Topokki but they didn’t change much other than their food menu. You can still see traces of the old restaurant on the table and on their silverware.

Seafood Pancake 10/10 - So crispy! I like pancakes that are crispy all around the edges and contain a lot of seafood.
Grilled Yellow Croaker 8/10 - Good value but a tad too salty.
Kimchi Beef Soon Tofu 9/10“

“Great experience Daniel, Brian, and Jeslyn were all extremely nice, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visit. The food and drinks were great, but the tangerine drink was so good that we ended up ordering 4 of them. Definitely coming back again!“

“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.“

“My friends and I had an incredible experience at Adam’s Chicken & Pocha! The chicken is truly special—it's incredibly tender and easily falls off the bone. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere is even better in person than it looks in photos. It has such a great vibe for a night out and also for a family dinner. Highly recommended!“

“Great spot. The guy there was really nice, it was first time eating there and I didn’t know which sauce to get for my tenders so I got a really good recommendation! The loaded fries were so good it made me so full I had leftovers to take home! I recommend coming here, the environment is welcoming!10/10“

“AWESOME KOREAN RESTAURANT IN LONG ISLAND: I’m not a foodie and I don’t think I’ve ever posted about restaurants (but I am Korean) - I have to make an exception for this place. Yes, this restaurant is on Long Island, but the Korean food EXCELLENT (better than lots of places in Flushing) and service is OUTSTANDING. Every dish we’ve tried so far (짜장면, 순두부찌개, 육개장, 제육덮밥) has been so amazing, delicious, and authentic (especially the spices!!!). If you’re ever in the area, please stop in and eat here. It’s crazy awesome! Thanks to my friend for encouraging me to try at a Korean restaurant that is not in Queens. My family will be forever grateful - five stars and 2 thumbs way up from me and my family members. :)“

“The spicy cold noodles with warm, cooked bulgogi is perfect refreshment for the summer time! The spiciness isn’t too noticeable, so there’s no real heat, only perfectly cool refreshing broth. The broth came on the side in a separate bowl and the spicy sauce was not mixed into the noodles, had to mix it myself but that’s okay.

The server cut the noodles up for me upon request. I also requested no eggs because I have an egg allergy and they accommodated accordingly!

The banchan / sides are really good as well. The kimchi is fermented well!

I just stopped in because I saw the cold noodle signs and it was a hot day.

I think this place used to be Witch Toppoki?“

“$28 AYCE KBBQ! Fantastic. Excellent quality food. Great price ! Friendly staff that sear your food at the table. Best of all, they have excellent ventilation vent (exhaust pipes) right on top of the grill! See pics. So you don’t smell like barbecue after your meal! A big big plus !
You order from the QR code at the table.
I’m going back!“

“Great service and friendly workers“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible First K-BBQ Experience!

This was my first time trying Korean BBQ, and **Cast Iron Pot** did not disappoint!

The food was absolutely great, and the menu offers a ton of variety, so there is truly something for everyone to enjoy.
We went with a party of four on a Friday night and were thrilled to be seated with no wait at all. The service was good, attentive, and kept everything moving smoothly.

We had an amazing time and will definitely be coming back for more. Highly recommend checking this place out!“

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

“Food was amazing. 10/10. Amazing service. The waitress was super nice, helpful and patient. She had awesome recommendations and alternatives. She made sure I was happy with my choices. I would recommend this place to everyone. Will definitely come again.“

“My friend and I wanted some warm soup in the cold winter, so we found this gem around the area!

Really quick service and the owner was so considerate and sweet.

We got the army stew, seafood pancake and steamed dumplings (also can order as fried). Everything hit the spot and we even had enough as leftover to take home as two people eating!

Definitely a really good lunch/dinner spot and will definitely be coming back!“

“This is very personal review.
Im crazy of sashimi.
It is very impossible to find raw live fish in other states.
But, Only N.Y and L.A. does have this because they have so enough sashimi restaurants with high demand that they could import raw fishes with acceptable Transportation costs from korea by airplanes.
This is economies of scale.
Anyway,
Sashimi was excellent for me.
Service and Atmosphere doesn't matter to me.
I was so happy to enjoy live fish.
I recommend you to visit if you like to live seafood.“

“Great food. Large portions!“

“Ordered takeout from Don Chicken on Northern Blvd and went for the Spicy Soy Garlic Chicken and it did not disappoint. The pieces were pretty big, juicy inside, and had that trademark Korean fried chicken crunch: thin, shatter-crispy, never greasy. The soy garlic glaze was spot on savory, garlicky, with just enough kick to keep me reaching for another bite.

I also tried the Sweet & Spicy flavor not bad at all, just leaned sweeter than what I usually like.

What I really appreciate is how Korean fried chicken is different from the fried chicken most of us grew up with. Instead of a thick, heavy batter, it’s double-fried a method that actually came about in Korea in the 1960s and 70s when fried chicken started getting popular alongside beer (“chimaek,” short for chicken + maekju/beer, is now a whole culture). That double fry gives you the crunch without the grease, and the sauces like this soy garlic add layered flavor instead of just salt and breading.

For takeout, it traveled well too the chicken stayed crisp even by the time I got home, which tells you they’re doing it right. Generous portions, bold flavor, and that authentic K-fried crispness make the spicy soy garlic the clear winner for me.“

“I ordered Mackerel Ssam, and it had a lot of colorful vegetables, so it looked good and tasted good. I tried it once and it was so delicious that I keep thinking about it!

Spicy ecological hot pot popular in winter
The more you eat it, the more refreshing the spicy taste becomes.
Stir-fried wood ear mushrooms, seasoned spinach, pickled red peppers, seasoned bean sprouts, kimchi, seasoned perilla eggplant, stir-fried anchovies and beans.
It's light, nutritious, and full of fresh vegetables, so you can eat a full bowl of rice just by eating it as a side dish.

Fresh pork, chewy meat, savory flavor
Feeling full after eating“

“Delicious Korean style Chinese food inside of H Mart, a popular Korean grocery store. It is set up like a food court style where you order at the counter, pay, then wait for your number to be called to pick up your food on a tray.

The indoor seating area is open, clean, and casual. The jjamppong 짬뽕 was spicy, and I love the generous portions.“

“a hidden gem that only really locals knows about, Daori BBQ place has the most insane lunch special spread, especially for this price (i paid ~$13). every time i’ve been, they’re especially busy around 12pm-1pm. they’re known for their bbq duck.

the deulkkae jang kalguksu (which is dinner sized) was so insanely hearty and filling. i barely made a dent in my barley rice, but i always enjoy eating that with my banchan. i had enough leftovers to have as dinner for tonight and lunch for tomorrow! i can’t recommend this place enough honestly.“

“Great food full of authentic Korean flavors. Very artistic interior with innovative decorations add to the experience.“

“If you’re looking for comfort food with bold flavors, this spot really hits. From rich, savory broths to crispy, juicy chicken and refreshing drinks to balance it all out Modoo has it all! Perfect for a cozy meal or a casual night out with friends. Definitely adding this to the regular rotation.

“New favorite place to eat in Wichita. amazing food and amazing service. 10 out of 10“

“Definitely coming back with family 🥰“

“Food is absolute best. I hate sweet and salty American food nor most of Korean food served in US. But their food is properly seasoned, and tastes great. Portion is ample, and you can eat to your hearts content.
I also feel very welcomed here.“

“staff is friendly and the dogs are incredible! highly recommend the flaming hot cheeto“

“Came here for dinner with my mom and left completely satisfied. I had the spicy seafood kalguksu (mild spicy) — the broth was clean, deeply savory, and the hand-cut noodles had the perfect chew. My mom got the spicy seafood sujebi (regular spicy) and couldn't stop talking about how good it was. The seafood was fresh and the portion was generous.
The atmosphere is warm and the service is genuine — you can tell this place is run with real care. If you're looking for authentic Korean noodle soup in the area, Daesung Korean Noodle is the real deal. Highly recommend for anyone craving handmade kalguksu or sujebi done right.“

“A fantastic spot for Korean!

Each dish was prepared with the utmost quality. Every bite was exuberant and delivered a sense of comfort and flavor.

The steamed pork belly is a great sharable dish. The side dishes were fresh.

Service was great and the place was clean.

Would recommend!“

“I stopped by this store to pick up lunch and was impressed by how clean it is. The owner was incredibly kind and friendly and even recommended some of his childhood favorite snacks. We had a really nice conversation.

All the takeout food is house-made, with a great variety of banchan (side dishes) and authentic snacks. I tried a unique banchan with jellyfish, papaya, turnip, and carrots—it was refreshing and perfectly crunchy. I also had pancakes, pork dumplings, and chicken over rice, all of which were delicious. The chicken rice bowl was served warm, which I really appreciated. I’ll definitely be back to try more items.“

“NO BATHROOM!!!
The food is great we love coming here regularly. The host is always cold towards us, she’s much more polite towards other Koreans, could be a language barrier. The Resturant is always cold temperature wise, wear your jacket.“

“The crispy spicy with the elementary spicy is A1. Truffle fries one of the best around and great service“

“Been coming here since I was a kid. Authentic korean restaurant with all the dishes you can think of and bbq if you like. The only thing that was a letdown was their rule when ordering bbq. Minimum is two orders of meat. I never knew about this rule because we usually go with larger groups and order a lot. It was only me and my girl this time and we both wanted our own main dish with a little bbq meat but unfortunately had to go without the bbq this time.

No fuss. We ordered a seafood pancake for appetizer and seafood soon dooboo and dolsot bibimbap for our main dishes. Came out to about $60 before tip so very affordable as always.

Place used to be 24 hours but I see they've cut their hours to midnight. Anyways. Always a good place to go for a guaranteed good time. Come early or book a reservation otherwise there will be a wait. During peak times on the weekends, you might be waiting awhile.

They coned off two metered spots for customers so it was nice to pull up and park right in front.“

“Stopped by Jackson Heights, it was delicious & well worth the Q70 bus ride & walk from LGA & back. ���“

“Went to Fly Chick to the Moon last night with three other people, and it turned out to be a great experience from start to finish.

We started with the guacamole, which was clearly made fresh to order. It came out in a cast iron dish and had a nice chunky texture with avocado, tomato, and onion. You could taste how fresh everything was—simple, clean, and really well done.

For appetizers, we ordered the boneless chicken, parmesan fries, and fried pork dumplings. Everything came out hot and crispy. The boneless chicken had a good crunch on the outside while staying juicy inside, and the parmesan fries were loaded with flavor—salty, cheesy, and hard to stop eating. The fried pork dumplings were another solid choice, with a crispy exterior and a flavorful filling.

For the main course, we went with the taco party platter (16 pieces) for $62.40, which breaks down to about $3.90 per taco—honestly a great deal for the quality and variety. The platter included four different types, with four tacos of each:

Taco al pastor (adobado pork with grilled pineapple)
Birria tacos
Beef kimchi tacos
Tacos de asada

Each one had its own distinct flavor. The al pastor had that perfect sweet and savory balance from the pineapple, the birria tacos were rich and satisfying, the beef kimchi tacos brought a nice fusion twist with a bit of tang, and the asada tacos were classic and well-seasoned.

Fly Chick to the Moon recently expanded their kitchen with Chef Noe Emiliano, bringing in more authentic Mexican options. We’ve always enjoyed their fried chicken wings, but now having Korean-Mexican tacos on the menu really adds another layer to the place.

If you’re planning to go, there are some great deals during the week. Tuesday is Taco Tuesday with a buy-one-get-one-free taco offer, and Wednesday is $1 wings (minimum order of 10). Both are seriously good value.

Safe to say, I’ll be back—probably every Tuesday and Wednesday.“

“There was something wrong with my initial order so I called and asked them about it. They were very quick to figure out the issue and call me back, telling me I’d get a refund and offering to remake my order. Very grateful for the correction and the food was great 🖤“

“A little hole-in-the wall Korean joint near the 7 train/LIRR stop in Woodside Queens. I stop there a couple of times a week after work to pickup dinner. There aren’t any sit-down tables, but the food more than makes up for it. The classic Korean dishes are delicious and satisfying. I love how generous they are with the veggies. Everything is fresh and homemade. The people here are always so kind and welcoming too. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic, no-frills, tasty Korean food!“

“학원 근처라 자주 오는데 음식이 very 빨리나오는데 짱맛있.. 허걱 ! 직원분들이 너무너무 친절하세용ㅎㅎ 꿀꿀 돼지한마리로써 먹는거 굉장히좋아하는데 강.추 ㅇi런ㅁr슨첨ㅇi양..^^⭐️ 둘이먹다 하나가뒤져도 모를 맛!“

“This is the most delicious Korean Chinese restaurant I‘ve ever eaten. The place is clean and friendly. I love this place and Truly recommend ~!!!!“

“The best pizza ever! the customer service is amazing! ❤️ Been there a lot of times!“

“This restaurant serves delicious dishes like sundae soup, stir-fried gopchang, and kimchi stew, but what really stood out to me were the neatly prepared side dishes and perfectly cooked rice.
On top of that, the owner is incredibly kind and welcoming.
If you're craving authentic Korean home-style meals, I genuinely recommend coming here!“

“We were the only customers. Service was top notch. The waitress spoke Korean and Mandarín. We ordered eel and short rib on bbq and a hot stone pot bibimbap. There was so much food. There we’re 8-10 banchan dishes. Then they brought out a veggie pancake, eggplant dish, steamed egg and soup. It was DELICIOUS 맛있는! See you soon!“

“Ive only been here once, but I loved it so much! It seems more like family or group restaurant than one for just dining alone, but I greatly enjoyed the kimchi tasting they had. It was very good for just $10, with unlimited rice and noodles. The staff was very friendly, and the service was wonderful. I will be coming back soon!“

“A newly opened Korean spot that’s definitely worth checking out. We ordered the kimchi pancake, beef tofu stew, and their jajangmyeon over rice. The standout was the jajangmyeon over rice—really delicious, and not something I’ve seen offered at many other Korean restaurants.

The restaurant is very clean, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We’ll be back to try more dishes.“

“Meats are great but they have hands down the best Nengmyun. I crave this every summer and literally come eat this every chance I get because they dont deliver. Its that serious. They cook on cystal pan which is quite different than other places and the atmosphere is mediocre but if you know what youre going there for in regards to food then 10/10.“
