Nolbu Nolbu New York is a Korean restaurant located on Northern Blvd. It is a spacious place, though some might see it as a hole-in-the-wall with no notable service. Customers order and pay upfront, then sit while waiting for their food. The staff are friendly and polite, and the food is authentic and reasonably priced.
The menu includes kimbap, fried rice, and a spicy rice cake dish called rapokki. The fried rice is cooked well with large chunks of bulgogi beef and comes in a big portion with kimchi and soup. Rapokki is made with Korean rice cakes, ramen noodles, eomuk, cabbage leaves, onions, and spicy gochujang sauce. It is sweet, spicy, and addictive with a huge portion. Their crispy chicken tenders are extra crunchy with a light, crispy, and chewy exterior and juicy chicken inside. The crispy chicken is coated mostly in rice puffs and batter, with minimal chicken, but it is very tasty.
Their kimbap list is large, with popular options like pork cutlet kimbap and bulgogi kimbap. However, the pork cutlet kimbap has been noted to taste off, like a dirty towel, but the staff quickly fixed the issue and offered complimentary sweet rice drinks. Many customers say their gimbap tastes the same over the years and is the best in NY, surpassing other places. Some also enjoy the crispy chicken with honey mustard sauce, which is light, crispy, and chewy, and always a favorite.
Overall, Nolbu Nolbu New York offers delicious and authentic Korean food with some minor issues in their kimbap and crispy chicken. The staff are friendly and helpful, always ready to make things right, and the menu has many options to satisfy different tastes.
