Went back to Gurume, this time later at night after seeing a show so the restaurant was less crowded but still lively. Had the Soy Garlic Chicken Wings and the Mushroom Harvest Bowl - both were great and what we come back for. Terrific staff, warm welcome from the host and our server Mario was friendly and helpful. Great also to catch up with Arianna who we know from past visits. read more

Very vibey Korean tapas style bar with a big range of tasty dishes. We had a small wait to get in for our reservation, but it was very busy when we arrived. It got quieter a bit later in the evening (on a Saturday which was surprising. We tried a large range of dishes, and most were tapas size except the ramen which was a large portion, great value, and a good way to end the savoury portion of the meal. The desserts were both worth trying, especially the bread pudding. read more

This restuarnt specializes in Korean small bites. During my trip to NYC they may have orchestrated some of the best dishes during the whole trip. The environment is very laid back, with dim lighting. The servers were very attentive, and the chef would bring it the dishes and explain them to you each time. The food here that we had was absolutely fenominal. We started with their house made truffle potatoe chips. Nicely flavored, just perfect amount of saltiness with a great crisp. The star of the show was the oyster mushroom tacos. By far the best single bite or dish of food. The flavor profile is so robust, with different textures, it was a true delight. I highly recommend their black sesame bread pooding as well. The bread pooding was so gooey, and crispy and melted, it was the perfect balance of sweetness, and paired amazingly with the cold ice cream. Highly recommend if you are interested in a true fine dinning experience. read more

Absolutely delicious!! We got the kimchi fried rice, Brussels sprouts, and Jjambong gambas and I have no notes on the flavors. The portions are to be expected considering it's a tapas bar and the price is to be expected for New York in Times Square. They do give you free truffle potato chips though (: it's $2 for a bigger refill in case you were wondering The service was excellent. The servers and food runners were attentive, quick to refill our waters, and thoroughly knew the menu and the ingredients. I always appreciate when allergies are noted (although I don't have any). The interior is so cute! Very good date night spot with a small candle and floral arrangements throughout. 10/10 would go again read more

I was sadly unimpressed with the food here. Everything was too salty, and the fusion part felt too fusion. read more

Had a very nice experience, lovely place and excellent service. Great spot for a pre theater meal. Of the items I tasted, the Brussel sprouts and cheesy rice cake dishes were the most outstanding. All dishes were good except the Dubai chocolate dessert, which didn't have chocolate OR pistachio flavors.... :( the sesame bread pudding was incredible. Many drinks can be made spirit free and my friend liked the namu. Some dishes are spicy but they helped me find flavorful dishes that didn't have heat to them. read more

Looking to try something different in the area, Gurume sounded so good, we thought we'd see if we can get a table at opening without a reservation. About 10 minutes before opening on a Saturday night there were some people waiting for the doors to open. Once we asked for a table, we were asked to step to the side so reservations could be checked in first. Luckily in a few minutes we were offered seats at the bar since they had full reservations that night. The bar was comfortable and the bartenders were great. I loved watching the cocktails being made and speaking of cocktails, they are excellent. The Bool included tequila, pomegranate and jalapeño; the other cocktail was a spritz of sorts and both were fabulous. The menu is Korean tapas, so we ordered a bunch of items to try. As each dish was served the server described the dish and even provided some instructions on the best way to eat it, if applicable. Tuna Tartare was quite good, the knife cuts were a bit inconsistent which was surprising given the level of everything, but the dish was still enjoyable; citrusy with crispy sunchoke chips. Oyster Mushroom Tacos were incredible. It didn't even feel like I was eating mushrooms. The tacos were so falvorful and balanced. If they ask you if you want to add a 4th taco to the dish, definitely say yes. Berkshire Kimchi Fried Rice served with a beautifully runny egg brought the spice and the dish was both elegant and homey at the same time. Just wonderful Birria Mandu served in a bone marrow consume was spectacular. Fried Chicken Wings, we opted for the sweet and spicy version served with kimchi daikon were sublime and addictive. They also provided a wet towel with the dish so you can clean up afterwards. Those 5 dishes were a good amount of food to feel satisfied, but we couldn't stop there and needed to try dessert. Do not pass up the Black Sesame Bread pudding, it was sublime. Served in a sizzling cast iron pan with candied almond slices and ice cream. It was so unique and really really delicious. The whole experience from the hostess to the servers to the food was A+ and I can't wait to go back. read more

Absolutely stunning. I love the idea of getting multiple small plates and trying different things and it works really well with Korean food. The dishes here were creative, using Korean flavors as well as inspiration from other cuisines for a fun spin. The Mushroom Harvest Bowl, Snow Pea Salad, Birria Mandoo, Spicy Chicken & Cheese, Jjambong Gambas, Black Sesame Bread Pudding, and Dubai Chocolate Bungeo-bbang were all worth getting. The servers were super attentive and also mindful of the time for our Broadway show. I enjoyed my Jejudo cocktail as well. Only small thing is that our table had a glare from the sun for the first 20 minutes, they've could've definitely set us up better since we've made a request on Resy. Also on Resy, you can mark the occasion, such as if you were visiting family to have a birthday dinner or going out for an anniversary, but not sure if this establishment knows what to do with that. Oh well, will chalk it up to growing pains since every dish we tried were outstanding. read more

Came here on a Wednesday around 5:00 to have dinner before a show. Able to get a table right away and the servers asked about our show time so that we would have plenty of time. It's a cozy little space that doesn't feel too dark or cramped thanks to soft lighting and mirrors. The food was amazing! Kitchen staff was very accommodating to multiple allergies (nuts and dairy) and even made some changes so that the food would be safe to eat. We had the Brussels sprouts, oyster mushroom tacos (for person without dairy allergy), mushroom harvest bowl, and tuna tartare. All of them were excellent. I would definitely come here again! read more

We were fortunate enough to get a table here before our Broadway play. We arrived at 5:30pm and was out just in time for the 7pm show a couple of blocks away. Our server Caitlyn was so nice and very helpful in suggesting dishes for us. The staff is attentive and we never had an empty water glass. Our favorite dishes were the Snow Pea Salad which had such great flavor and a nice crunchy texture. The Tuna Tartar is actually cut in strips which makes it easy to pick up and eat. I would also recommend the Birria Mandu and if you are a dessert person definitely order the Black Sesame Bread Pudding! read more

This was a fun experience. The birria mandu, steak and crudo were my favorite dishes but we sampled many. The corn was unexpectedly on the cob. Since I have an 18 year old son & this is a tapas style restaurant, the bill grew rapidly. The prices were in my opinion reasonable and the dishes filled me rapidly. All and all a great experience. read more

Found this spot right off the path of Times Square. Super nice interior and very inviting. We were a party of 3, got there when they opened at 5 and were seated right away. Our waiter Mario was excellent. Super friendly, attentive and even gave us complimentary cocktails. The drinks we ordered were excellent. Very spirit forward with good complex flavors. We got the Seoul mule (it lit up!) and the sojutini (packed a big punch!) We order a bunch of tapas off the menu and everything was delicious. Major call out to the scallop crudo which was my favorite. The flavors were unique and I'm not a novice to Korean food. The ribs (didn't snap a pic) were a close second where the meat fell off the bone and was very nicely seasoned. 5 stars all around. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area and looking for something less touristy. Shoutout again to Mario! Thank you for giving us a great experience! read more

Literal 10/10 meal. The inside can be loud but the service is fast and the servers take the time to explain each one of the dishes. We met Kevin at the end of our meal and he was delightful! Our favorites were the Korean fried chicken (had to order it twice!), salmon ceviche, and grilled asparagus. The cocktails are super yummy as well! The black sesame bread pudding is also a must order. I'll be bringing my friends here in the future! read more

My husband and I came here for happy hour last night (6/2/26), and we loved it! They have a cute little outside eating area, then you go in through two doors, and then you will be greeted by people saying something, or, as we were, a friendly hello. The restaurant is elaborately decorated with beautiful pink flowers and greenery. We sat at the bar. The bartender greeted us and let us know it was happy hour, with $2 off cocktails, beer, and wine. I got their espresso martinis (actually, I got a second one when I finished it cause why not), and my husband got their mule, which had a nice piece of candy, ginger, and a light in it. We were only here for drinks and apps as we had dinner a couple of hours later. We went with the tempura oyster mushroom tacos (they are very mini) and the everything Ttaokboitti. We loved them both so much! The little tacos come with three, but they can add another for an upcharge. We just ordered another batch (they are mini) because they were so delicious. The Ttaokbotti was so so good, and since it reminded me of an elevated mac and cheese, it was my favorite. read more

We had a great experience. If you have a 7p show close by grab a 5p reservation. That's when they open up. They're kind of expecting people to want to get going to a show. The location is perfect for this!! First off Diego was our server and he was a GEM!!! he was kind, friendly, on the ball, and even went a over and beyond when he saw my daughter spilled a bit of sauce on her shirt. He went and got her a cold cloth. We also had an allergy and he helped us through choices we had . Food was delish. It's tapas so although shareable, you need a good 4-5 plates for 2 people to fill you up. They were great at bringing things out individually as opposed to everything together. They also were not shy about replacing plates and utensils so that you get a fresh place to enjoy the next flavors. Prices were reasonable. read more

Gurume instantly gave me the vibe of modern Asian fusion with a strong Korean influence, and wow--did it deliver. Our table ordered a variety of small plates, and several absolutely blew us away. The Brussels sprouts were unbelievably flavorful, the crispy corn cheese (adorable mini corn on the cobs!) was addictive, and the steak and potatoes--a tender kalbi flat iron steak with perfectly seasoned potatoes--was easily one of the highlights of the night. The service was outstanding. The staff was super attentive, warm, and genuinely focused on making our meal special. They even asked the chef to prepare extra potatoes for me from the steak and potatoes dish--an unexpected and thoughtful touch that didn't go unnoticed. We came with a large group, and Gurume handled it effortlessly. To top it all off, they surprised our table with complimentary shots to celebrate the birthday boy, which made the evening even more fun. If you love Korean-inspired small plates, bold flavors, and fantastic hospitality, Gurume is absolutely worth a visit. I'd go back in a heartbeat! read more

We stumbled upon this cozy little restaurant while we we staying in NYC over Thanksgiving week. Immediately read through the menu and had to try it out. They specialize in Korean style tapas and had a variety of fun cocktails. Each dish was absolutely mouth watering and incredible! Upon entering we were warmly greeted by the staff in Korean, which was super cute. Food arrived quickly and the dishes proved even better tasting than they sounded! Every bite was bursting with flavor. The only downside was that they did not have high chairs, but staff were super kid friendly. Would definitely recommend starting with the scallop crudo. It so sharp, zesty, and refreshing. Honestly, I've never had a scallop dish like this. It was Hokkaido Scallop with fermented chili broth, topped with pink pineapple, and Thai chilis. A very unique concept that paired super well. Our favorite dish was the Everything bagel Tteokbokki, which was out of this world. So cheesy, soft and chewy. Almost reminded me of a cacio e Pepe dish. Also do not sleep on the Steak and Potatoes!! It was prime galbi with crispy confit potatoes topped with fermented Chimichurri. One of the best steak dishes I've ever had in my life. Drinks were vibrant and different. The Seoul mule was great and came in a light up highball! Can't wait to come back next time we're in town. read more

We came here after seeing our fave show Maybe Happy Ending! Lucky to get a 5pm Rez! Loved everything we got! Strawberry Mojito was strong, tasty, and had a fun blinking light inside. Brussel sprouts were crispy and delicious. Soy garlic chicken wings were magical, crunchy outside and tender inside! Accompanied by spicy kimchi radish. Berkshire kimchi fried rice had amazing crunchy quinoa but wish it had more Berkshire pork. I struggled to find pork. Service was attentive and Victor our service was excellent. Beautiful ambiance with nice lighting and friendly crowd. read more

The dishes here are exceptional and definitely very thought out and put together. Flavors were really good overall but I will say this was expensive for the small portions. Just talking food wise though - the pork belly was very tender and I love the sauce it came with. It paired very nicely and balanced with the radish! The tuna tartar was also really good and mixing all the sauces together with the chips was nice! The best price vs portion ratio imo was the steak and potatoes. The meat was very tender and the sauce on top complimented the savoriness and richness of it and helped it taste refreshing. Potatoes were also very crispy! The service was great and had a nice ambiance inside. read more

Came here before a show in the city. The place was packed but we had made a reservation before so we got right in. The service is a little bouncy, with the team changing in and out on tables and rushing around which makes it hard to know who your direct server is and how you can order additional items or check on your food. The food was incredible but keep in mind most are tapas style sizes so small and should be shared while you order a few choices. They ramen entree is plenty large enough for three. We ordered a Bom Spritz and Ddal Gi Mojito to start. They are good but very light on the drink and heavy on the ice. We started with the Everything Tteokbokki which is almost like a MacNCheese and then added the Berkshire Kimchi Fried Rice. Our entree was the Seafood Ramyun and you have to like spicy because it is on the hot side. We added a Birria Mandu at the end because we saw it on someone else's table and they said they loved it. We were happy with it but already super full so it didn't land as well. Our favorite dish from the meal was the Kimchi Fried Rice. Of the servers we had, Cherry was the nicest and she slowed down to talk to us and answer our questions. The interior has a lot of table in the main drag from the kitchen so not the most comfortable. It's incredibly loud and not a good place for a first or second date unless you sit outside on the patio but then you run the risk of the summer heat eating you alive. read more

I had an awesome experience here! Food was great. I recommend the Everything Tteokbokki, Salmon Ceviche, and Steak and Potatoes.

You will try flavor combinations you've never had before! read more

I'm not usually a fan of coming into midtown, but we wanted to have some dinner prior to seeing a show, so decided to try this interesting korean-fusion tapas place. We arrived as the restaurant opened since our reservation was at 5. We were seated immediately without any issues. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable on the menu. The inside of the restaurant was very modern looking and inviting, perfect for a date night. It is a tapas restaurant, probably should order 2-3 dishes per person given the size of the plates. Did not try any of their cocktails but would seriously consider it if I am back here again as they did look delicious - Corn ribs - really delicious, perfect spice with great saltiness from the cotija. Also, who would have thought that corn puree would be a thing, very delicious. - Mandu - it was good, very rich, broth, and while delicious felt like it needed a little acid to cut through it - everything seasoning tteokbokki - very interesting concept, very heavy on the cheese but solid flavor - Spicy chicken - not that spicy, it was okay, but other dishes were definitely better. - Sesame bread pudding - this was a great way to end the meal, really tasty sesame flavor combined with a rich fluffy bread pudding, absolutely recommend. Overall - Solid option for a meal in midtown if you are going to a show in the evening. read more

Absolutely amazing! We saw this restaurant right here on yelp, and thought it looked interesting. I am thrilled that we gave it a try! Every aspect of our Gurumé experience was perfection! We arrived without reservation, and were lucky enough to be seated, even though it was very full...I recommend making a reservation, we got lucky. We were seated towards the back of the cozy narrow dining room and immediately greeted with a smile from the awesome waitress Cherry. She was very helpful and informative with the unusual tapas menu. We ordered a selection of items, and each dish was so good! Starting with the brussel sprout starter, which was crispy, bright and delicious. we then ordered tteokbokki, described as a rice cake, but much more like little bowl delicious rice gnocchi with a creamy chase sauce. We followed with jjambong gambas, a creative and tasty shrimp dish, and the seafood ramen, very spicy and a real treat. If you get a chance, do not miss out on this sweet spot. Incredible food, astounding and attentive service, and all in a magical cozy dining room. read more

Though I have many, many restaurants bookmarked in the Theater District, I do not go out of my way to dine in the area because it is pretty much a madhouse 24/7. I don't see broadway shows too often these days because they have become wildly expensive in recent years, but when I used to go more frequently I remember merely tolerating pre-show fare rather than appreciating it as its own experience. Fast forward to present day, which presents a culinary landscape with far more intrigue than years past. Gurumé certainly reflects this shift, as the concept could easily fare well in other neighborhoods. Gurumé offers an impressive array of Korean tapas, with options that will satisfying just about any taste and dietary preference/restriction. Add in super friendly staff and efficient service and you've got yourself a winning restaurant. We came here at around 9:15pm on a Wednesday night after seeing a 7:30pm show in the area that was a tight 80 minutes, no intermission. That meant that when arrived, there were only a couple of other parties in the restaurant given that pre-show diners had long since left and most post-show diners would not yet be out of their respective theaters. So the space was pretty empty for the first half of our meal (great for service, not as much for vibes), until the late dinner crowd began filing in. Overall, the space is relatively casual and feels warm and inviting. And, importantly, it does not feel tired or overrun by hoards of theatergoers and tourists, despite its proximity to Broadway. We got cocktails to start, taking advantage of their soju-forward cocktail menu. I got the Gam Gyul (Soju, Dry Vermouth, Citrus, Yuzu), a citrus-forward, gimlet-style drink that was very well-balanced. My partner and I then split a bottle of the Seoul Night soju, which was clean and crisp with subtle fruit notes. Food-wise, we tried to sample a little bit of everything without over-ordering, which is always a delicate balance. All small plates, though of course some are more filling than others. They recommend 2-3 dishes per person which I'd agree is a good approach. Across the board, the food was rich and flavorful, and had a lot going on while still being edited enough. Eats, below: Brussel Sprouts w/ Yuja Glaze, Chili Dust: A+ Some citrus, some spice, and tons of flavor. This is a powerhouse dish and a total no-brainer. Grilled Broccolini w/ Burnt Chili Doenjang, Tzatziki, Toasted Perilla Powder: A Another super flavorful dish with so much going on in the flavor profile. Herbal notes, smoky notes, spicy notes, with the tzatziki to smooth it all out. Tuna Tartar w/ Yellowfin Tuna, Citrus Shallot Cucumber, Crispy Sunchoke Chips, Fresh Wasabi: A+ A great complement to the warm dishes. Beautifully presented, bright and fresh, great combo of textures. Steak and Potatoes w/ Prime Galbi Flat Iron Steak, Crispy Confit Potatoes, Fermented Chimichurri: A+ Wow, there is a clear reason why this dish is lauded across platforms. I'm not even a steak person but this was outstanding. The steak was so juicy and flavorful and the chimichurri added a punchiness to the bite. The potatoes were heavenly, enough said. Jjambong Gambas w/ Beurre Blanc Colossal Shrimp, Spicy Seafood Foam Sauce, Chili Oil): A The steak was a hard act to follow so we were slightly less impressed with this, but this is all relative because it was still excellent. A completely unique preparation though I could've done with a tiny bit more spice. Beurre blanc is going to to even everything out, so it ended up being just a little spicy, mostly balanced, but I am a spice fiend and wanted more. A minor note for a very good dish. read more

Gurume was good for a last minute dinner and tasty korean-fusion tapas. The vibe is cozy with warm fairy lights and the service is casual but personable. The orange wine that we started with was good, but a little stale considering it was leftover from a bottle that was already opened (we saw them pour it from an open bottle). But it was still decent for the price we paid. My friend and I enjoyed ourselves the steak and potatoes, the everything tteokbokki, and the nurungi tang. The steak and potatoes were really good with tender well seasoned galbi and double fried, crispy potatoes. The tteokbokki was delicious and creamy with the rice cakes being the perfect texture. And to finish it off, the Nurungi Tang was a hearty seafood stew with a good amount of protein and soup to finish our meal. Considering it is a tapas place and you're expected to get 3 dishes each, it does get a little expensive especially if you're getting a glass of wine or a cocktail. It's nothing unusual considering nyc portions and prices, and to be fair Gurume ranks low on the small portion with hefty price tag offenders list because at least the food Gurume is pretty good. read more

Made a reservation for Saturday around 5:30 before heading out to a Broadway show nearby. I do recommend making a reservation in advance since it's so close to broadway. The waiter told us about 2-3 dishes per person and 5 dishes between two filled us up. We first had the salmon ceviche which was so refreshing and just spicy enough. This was followed by the watermelon which is meant to be a palate cleanser and was also refreshing. We then had the pork belly which was delicious as well. By far my favorite thing we ordered was the mushroom harvest bowl. It had a deep umami flavor that was so satisfying and filled us up. We ended with the spicy chicken wings which did have a good kick. It came with about 5 wings and was also filling. The restaurant itself is small but was well staffed enough that my glass was never empty. I also enjoyed how the table runner told us a little bit about each dish and how to best enjoy it! read more

Korean tapas place. All the food comes out piping hot. The standout dishes were the chicken wings, the seafood kalguksu, the oyster tacos, and the scallop crudo (it was a bit salty but I thought it really worked). The okay dishes were the birria mandu (birria was a bit dry but consommé was so good) and the black sesame bread pudding (overall good although not really black sesame flavored, and I personally don't really like almonds which I didn't realize were in it). The broccolini was really bad; the tzatziki just didn't make sense in the dish at all. Service was super attentive and high quality and the decor is really cute, if a bit maximalist. Their suggested tips are based off the total, not the subtotal, which I always find a bit dishonest. read more

My wife and I were in the city for a 3 p.m. show and I found Gurume on Yelp for afterwards. It's the perfect type of restaurant in my opinion, sharing small plates is a great experience. We were seated immediately for a 6 p.m. reservation. Each and every staff member we encountered was excellent! Our waitress was patient and gave great recommendations. We decided on 6 small plates and my wife added a couple of glasses of Pinot Noir. The soy garlic wings were some of the best we've had, texturally perfect! Couldn't imagine that they managed to be light and were perfectly sauced. Yellowtail ceviche, kimchi fried rice, steak and potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and oyster mushroom tacos rounded out our choices and were all delicious. Ambiance was excellent. Food was served at optimal temperature. Upon departure, a pleasant host asked us about our experience and genuinely cared. Truly a well run business. read more

Delicious and great experience! We walked in here right around 5PM and were able to snag some bar seats. Service was very friendly. Dishes are overall on the small side. While very pretty, they were delicious too! Here's what we got: - Oyster mushroom tacos: these were just ok and very small, would skip over in the future - Crispy corn & cheese: delicious, the sauce was amazing - Everything tteokbokki: super creamy, a bit on the small side, but still good! - Baby back ribs: delicious, especially with the potato sauce - Steak and potatoes: my favorite dish of the night, steak was cooked perfectly - Birria mandu: also really really great - Black sesame pudding: amazing I tried the jejudo which was great too and very refreshing. Interestingly the ginger korean honey tea was dare-I-say, even better though. Ultimately a great experience. You probably will need a reservation to get a spot here until you walk in right when it opens. There's a reason why it's so popular! read more

Made a last minute reservation for 2 before our Broadway show which was the best idea of the trip. Within walking distance of all the broadway shows, this is a great place to grab some drinks and bites to eat before or after a show. Their soju cocktails are delicious and not too strong, and you really can't go wrong with any of their bites. The bar tender was super helpful and nice, chatting with us here and there despite being super busy and giving us her recommendations which were all amazing. She even took time to explain how to eat the dishes for maximum deliciousness. Our favorite dish was the mushroom harvest bowl, which was her favorite and something we probably would have skipped had she not recommended it. We really enjoyed the vibes here - the food came out quickly but it never felt like we were being rushed to leave. They change dishes on their menu fairly consistently based on what ingredients are fresh and on the chef's particular taste, so definitely a place worth revisiting over and over again. read more

This place is supposed to be Korean fusion, but I think the food tastes like 10% Korean and 90% other cuisines. I didn't really mind that part, mostly just thought the dishes were rather mediocre and were across the board too salty. If you're sensitive to salt, definitely don't get the birria mandu, as that was the saltiest dish of them all. I actually quite enjoyed the black sesame bread pudding. It seems to be a popular dish here, and I can understand why--the contrast of the warm bread pudding and cold ice cream works really well together, and the toasted almonds add a nice crunch. Unfortunately, this wasn't enough to overcome the issues with the savory dishes for me. read more

Great find! Perfect for after a show! Loved it all but the oyster mushroom tacos were delicious!

We made reservations for Gurumé as a party of 4 after hearing some nice reviews about this place. The interior atmosphere was a nice cozy setup and it was quite packed with customers. We were aware of the portion sizes being small, however they were a lot smaller than anticipated. For every dish, each person was able to taste a singular bite. Food still tasted good regardless and our drink had a nice flavor as well. We ended up going to another restaurant and eating a full course meal afterwards cause we were still very hungry afterwards. Quality was good but quantity was less than we paid for. read more
