So nice and delicate flavor without overly seasoning. Reasonable price. We only waited 15 min at 8pm on a Friday so definitely worth the wait
I really liked the simple and light pork soup.
Do a walk-in during weekday morning/breakfast hours - we did not have any wait and got to see the Chef Ok Dongsik too!
Dweji gomtang was outstanding. I can eat this every day if I could.
Kimchi mandoos were really good. - how thin the skin was but held all the filling was impressive. They steam them from frozen but still taste super fresh!
When I come back next time, I don't know if I need to get the kimchi mandoos again but the dweji gomtang 🤌🤌🤌

OKDONGSIK New York is a cozy restaurant that specializes in hearty Korean comfort food, particularly known for its kimchi mandoo and dweji gomtang. The kimchi mandoo is praised for its thin, pliable skin and nice flavor, while the dweji gomtang features a comforting broth that is rich and full of meat, making it a favorite for many diners. This warm broth evokes memories of childhood dishes for some, although a few have found it to be a bit mild or watery at times. The rice in the gomtang is cooked perfectly, soaking up the delicious soup. The kimchi is noted to be very good, and the gochuji dipping sauce adds great flavor. However, some diners feel the seasonal cold broth soup and acorn jelly have not impressed as much. The restaurant has a small and casual atmosphere with only 13 seats, making it essential to make a reservation to secure a spot. Guests enjoy the streamlined experience, where they can hang their jackets and enjoy a dish of fermented vegetables as they wait. While some describe the overall taste as somewhat bland, the simplicity and cleanliness of the dishes shine through. The dumplings have been described as extra steamy and light, with the mandu being stuffed full and perfectly made. Although the menu is limited, the focus on a few core dishes allows them to deliver solid Korean flavor. It is wise to make a reservation, as walk-in customers may face long wait times or be turned away due to limited seating and food prep.
