Gangnam Style Korean Kitchen

Unfortunately, I had a very bad experience at this restaurant. One of the older female employees treated me in a very disrespectful way. Her attitude and the way she spoke to customers were completely unprofessional. This left a very negative impression, and I hope the management pays attention to improving their customer service

Kim the chef at Gangnam Style is amazing! Her food is SO tasty and authentic. I love the pancakes and bip n bop. Every time I am in Syracuse I stop to enjoy a nice meal or take one home with me. Love it!! Do not be fooled by the humble exterior & dining area. The food is terrific!

Hi.

I want to preface my review. The food here was really really good. But after our experience on 9/11/2025, I will never go here again.

My husband and I were driving thru Syracuse on the way to Canada. We stopped here for dinner on the way because they have a few vegan options which we really appreciated.

I was sitting down at the table on the phone when my husband came back into the restaurant and alerted me that one of the co-owners came up to him and told him to leave aggressively thinking that my husband was a loiterer. There was a loud concert going on nearby but we weren't attending it. Just wanting to get food. My husband responded angrily outside but wasn't threatening because it was really an audacious thing to do and the owner approached angrily and did not apologize. It escalated from there and the owner demanded that we leave. His mother - who was cooking and also likely the other owner - was mortified at her son's behavior and we were forced to witness her take off her crocs and beat him with it as well as the broom and scream in Korean. It was obviously that this wasn't his first time treating paying customers this way. I paid for the food and asked for it to go and was peaceful and respectful the entire time. As we were leaving, my husband and the aggressive owner had another spat in the parking lot next door to the restaurant and he threatened to call the cops and lied and said that we were being aggressive. It simply wasn't the case and we got in the car and left. A shame really since the food was really good. But I cannot get behind treating people this way. This would have never happened otherwise have escalated if the owner didn't come in hot and accuse my husband of loitering in front of the restaurant. His behavior was hurtful and the other staff apologized profusely for him. Please reconsider the way you talk to people. Your behavior was shameful.

Ordered $250 worth of food for 4 people, everything was great for our big back appetite and Asian food loving tastebuds. Service is a bit slow since there are only 2 people running the place but they are very nice. Wish they had more seating but we went during an off time and were okay. Arguably the best Korean spot in Cuse.

Absolutely one of the best places I’ve been to while visiting Syracuse. We ordered 2 appetizers (tteokbokki and pan fried dumplings), 10 pc red chili (Korean style) fried chicken, and we all each got a full order meal to share with the table. The free side dishes were amazing, the kimchi was crunchy and full of flavor. I got the donkatsu and it was the best fried pork. Overall will definitely come back if I am ever in town.

The food was amazing!! The Tteok-bokki was amazing. The pan fried dumplings were nice and crispy. The red chili fried chicken was so full of flavor and had some nice heat to it. The mapa tofu was cooked perfectly and was a delicious meal. And the owner was so sweet. She really made us feel like welcome guests.

Nice little Korean restaurant that serves tasty dishes. We were in a hurry to get home, so we got our food to go. Everything was flavorful. the portions were generous, and would have probably been much better if we had eaten there (we live 80 minutes away). Regardless, we are happy that we stopped in, and we will definitely be back to eat there again.
Others have mentioned the front door not being clearly marked. I’ve included a video and photo.

This place is very mediocre. My wife and I are Asian food lovers and although the flavor was okay. Our Bibimbap was cold which made us question freshness. The wings had good flavor but over fried, so were the fries and they tasted greasy. The place itself is ugly and smells old and unclean. We didn't enjoy it much. Won't be back on a scale of 1-10 we would give it a 6.

Cozy, Authentic Korean Cuisine. Go in, relax and have a nice warm meal for those cold/rainy days. This place is a great spot comparable to KTown in LA/OC. The aunty in the front is very nice and welcoming. She'll answer any questions you may have.
