OKDONGSIK New York is a restaurant that specializes in hearty Korean comfort food, particularly known for its kimchi mandoo and dweji gomtang. The kimchi mandoo is praised for its nice texture and flavor, while the dweji gomtang features an exquisitely clean broth and tender, thinly sliced pork. This warm broth is so good that it brings back memories of childhood dishes for some diners. The rice in the gomtang is cooked to a perfect texture, soaking up the delicious soup. The kimchi is also noted to be very good, and the gochuji dipping sauce adds great flavor. However, some diners have found the seasonal cold broth soup and acorn jelly less impressive. The restaurant has a small and cozy atmosphere with only 13 seats, making it a bit difficult to get in without a reservation. Guests appreciate the streamlined experience, where they hang their jackets and sit down to enjoy a dish of fermented vegetables as they wait. While the overall taste has been described as somewhat bland, the simplicity and cleanliness of the dishes shine through. The dumplings have been described as extra steamy and light, while the gomtang has been noted as one of the best some have tried. It's advised to make a reservation to secure a spot, as walk-in customers may be turned away due to limited seating and food prep.
