Best Korean Restaurants in Upper East Side

Excellent service. Whole staff is knowledgeable and attentive. Food is delicious with beautiful presentation. Highly recommend sitting at the counter to watch the food preparation. If I get the chance, I will absolutely return.

For lunch, the food was great but extremely slow.

It's a fantastic place, worth the visit: excellent food

As a Restauranteur, I want to write an Honest professional Review. Let me walk you through this experience so that you know Exactly what to expect. 1st off, I Love Real Asian food as I Live in Bangkok Thailand 1/2 the year. We Fly to Japan, Vietnam often to eat their cuisine. In Asia we eat at the Michelin or Bib Gourmand Spots. We have been to over 50+ Korean Bbq spots in Thailand, which are Insane. These spots in Asia you scan a QR code and can narrow your selection down w being able to order as many of a cut you want. In Asia, it’s super cheap too but I have no problem spending $159++ in NYC. It’s an experience. The $159++ price point is right on the $ for this spot especially in NYC. High rent and the place has a super cool vibe. I totally understand this restaurant needs to make a profit & it’s a fine line for them. I think it’s too fine a line. I would suggest they sell sets for certain prices to lock into a more manageable profit margin. Like a $89, $129, $179 etc etc etc. I want any restaurant that serves Quality to Win. I’m a little mixed here in feelings to be honest. The 90 minute clock starts at reservation time. The selection is Great and the Serving staff is Very knowledgable. They are “well trained” in how to pace the 90 minutes. Almost Militant. So as you eat through each “selection” of High end meats from Japan w the little delays, you are left with about 22 minutes for the “Encore”. Be sure to take a photo of each round’s selection so you have a reference. They will cook and cut it for you, but then they line all the slices together on the side of the pan, which is confusing because then you can’t tell them apart (purposefully?). In the future, I would ask them to separate each in a different quadrant of side of the pan to rest after cooking. It’s advertised as “All You Can Eat” A5 Wagyu but let’s be real you really can’t eat & digest more than 12 oz’s of this rich, marbled delicacy without feeling like ur digestion system is a little off. We showe

Great atmosphere, good food and drinks. The ambiance and decor were pleasant. Great service and overall vibe.
