    Acorn noodles salad, cauliflower
    Vy N.

    Visited them during NYC Restaurant Week 2026. The acorn noodle salad was insanely good--if you chew for about 10 times or more, you can taste the acorn flavor. I just wish they could make the dressing lighter so that the acorn flavor could stand out a bit more. The cauliflower was okay but quite mediocre. The summer ssambap was good; I loved the sauce. They could do better if the ingredients were listed under the dish name. Since I'm not a fan of mango, I had to separate them from the toppings. This restaurant has a lot of potential as the one and only Korean vegan restaurant.

    This is the best Korean vegan restaurant in all of Manhattan. They have so many choices to pick from and it's actually kind of hard to narrow down what you want to order once you come here. They have a really cool set up where you walk in and it's a shoeless restaurant. They walk you to your table and we requested a low seated table that's similar to floor seating. We got the spicy baby dumplings as our appetizer which were so so so so good. I would probably skip the spicy tofu kimchi hotspot and get another dish next time. Can't wait to go back and try the biimbap.

    I've had better.

    For a vegan Korean fine dining??? A little overhyped AND overpriced. So for starters, Korean food has always included veggies in their cuisine so this feels like exoticizing Korean food, and I think people are just being too dramatic when they have kikimbap but in mushroom style. Like??? Ok? The setting is very much a sensory grabber. You take your shoes like just entering an Asian home. Cozy, almost theatrical ambiance. For the food, the kimchi jigae is so expensive but the taste factor ain't there! It's small, and overpriced for just bland tofu kimchi stew. The scallion pancakes are also meh, overpriced because the put in on a stone! Lmao. I think for me it's the mushroom kikimbap that saved it from being a disaster. Love the burnt bottom rice as always. Great taste and flavors. The cocktail is just too small for that price, like ridiculous. We also had a tofu truffle dumpling which is interestingly made but lacking in texture and flavors. Will I come back? I don't think so. But A FOR the effort and ambiance gimmick. But for the love of god, don't exoticise Korean food!

    I went to Hangawi with a couple family members and we had a lovely time. The atmosphere of the restaurant is lovely and peaceful (you take off your shoes at the front and sit at low tables - the tables still have an open space underneath, so if you are not particularly good at sitting cross-legged on the floor like me, you can still sit as if it is a bench seat). Our server was quiet and attentive. We tried: - todok salad: fresh and fried todok (Korean root vegetable) with watercress, cabbage and carrots in bean paste lemon dressing - Korean pancakes platter: leek, kimchi mushroom & mung bean pancakes with bean sprouts and kabocha pumpkin - kale dumplings in tofu skin wrap: kale, tofu, edamame beans and vegetables wrapped in tofu skin - plant based bulgogi stone bowl rice: plant based 'bulgogi' with vegetables and mushrooms with rice sizzling in a hot stone bowl - ssam bap: build your own lettuce and perilla leaf wraps with a variety of vegetables, tofu, sautéed mushrooms and bean paste sauce, served with 3 kinds of rice What a wonderful meal! The standout for us were the dumplings with a delicious bright green edamame sauce. And also the crispy rice at the bottom of the stone bowl, of course! While I do wish some of the flavors were punchier, we ordered the non spicy items to cater to my cousin so I can't comment on how the spicier foods might taste. I understand this facet of Korean cuisine is focused more on the nourishing properties of the foods. I am so happy I finally got to try this restaurant and highly recommend the experience to anyone!

    Delicious vegetarian food. Move traditional environment, friendly and helpful staff. I met a friend for dinner to catch up and it was a great environment for both the unique dining experience and the catching up part. We shared everything - a veggie bulgogi dolsot bibimbap, Korean pancake, ginger tofu soup, and spicy veggie dumplings. I highly recommend a dolsot (Clay pot rice bowl) dish if you do a la carte dining. The Korean pancakes were fun flavors though a bit salty. The dumplings were good, although the "spicy" was just a little kick. Our waitress was excellent, helping us when we need it and disappearing so we could catch up over conversation.

    Terrific food; 10/10 for the innovation, but the service left a lot to be desired! Let's start with the positives-- the food. We ordered the Kale dumplings in tofu skin wrap. It was delicate and paired really well with the spinach sauce. For the main course, we ordered the Avocado Rice bowl bibimbap and Spicy Kimchi tofu soup. Loved both! It was very filling. The avocado rice bowl came with a wonderful miso soup! Loved the concept-- sitting on the floor. The floor cushions were comfortable and there was an enclosure below the table to put your legs. The restaurant has mood lighting, and was full for a weeknight. Impressed!!! Service was practically non-existent. I think it was just the person who waited on us. He took our order and didn't bother to check in if we wanted anything more! I wanted to order a drink mid-meal and after 15 minutes of waiting and trying to get his attention while he was walking back and forth (which was unsuccessful; he didn't pay attention at all), I gave up. I could tell other staff were not like that. I have to deduct a star for that.

    Mushrooms with black truffle paste bibimbap

    I've been here a few times for dinner and just realized I've never written a review! I really love bringing people here since the dining experience is so unique. I prefer to sit at the low tables, and you'll have to take off your shoes when you arrive (they store them for you and have them out and waiting for you when you finish). It can be a little bit tricky to sit down and get up since there's not a ton of space, so just be mindful of that. I also appreciate that they will give you slippers when you use the restroom, but they are communal slippers so I would wear socks! We ordered off the a la carte menu and got: - Vermicelli Delight (5/5) Wish this came with more noodles though!!! - Korean Pancakes Platter (5/5) Comes with three sauces and three types of pancakes (leek, kimchi mushroom, and mung bean with pumpkin). All tasted great! - Mushroom Stone Bowl Rice with Black Truffle Paste (3/5) This was fine but I didn't taste the truffle at all. - Spicy Mongolian Hot Pot (5/5) I loved this dish! So good. - Spicy Rice Cakes (5/5) Wish this came with more rice cakes! The service was nice although they never refilled my cup of hot water. Props to them for serving us and navigating the low tables!

    Such a beautiful space that is rare to see the likes of in the US! I loved sitting on the floor and having a space for my feet. The food was all fantastic, i especially liked the twigim and the perilla leaf tofu appetizer. Melisa and i were catching up w someone from high school and we closed the place out on a sunday night it was awesome. Also look at that freaky Alien (1979) egg vessel the twigim (fritters galore??) came in lol. Idk if the nonvegans liked the food as much as me i was coming off vegebruary but i was LOVING it

    Beet & Avocado Tartare & Mushroom Skewers (front). Korean herb noodles & emperor's rolls (back)
    Vivek D.

    One of the more unique Korean Restaurants I've ever seen. Most likely because it's a vegetarian Korean restaurant. But also, how often is it where you take your shoes off at a restaurant? So yeah, we were here for restaurant week. As part of restaurant week, we had the 3 course menu. For the appetizers, we split the beet & avocado tartare, mushroom skewers, korean herb noodles salad, & the emperor rolls. For the main menu, we ordered the perilla leaf bibimbap w/ tofu crumbles & the crispy rice cakes in spicy sauce. For the dessert, we split the red bean and ice cream rhapsody & the chocolate mocha cake. Of the appetizers, the beet & avocado tartare was one of my favorites. The skewers were good, but maybe not the most authentic skewers you can find The salad was also pretty decent too. The appetizers were all very light. Very easy to digest. For the main meal, the crispy rice cakes stole the show. It had a great amount of kick. I loved every bite. The bibimbap was good, but the rice cakes were so much better. I personally loved the mocha cake, but my girl loved the ice cream rhapsody. Win-win in any case. This was perhaps our favorite restaurant week dining experience of the summer of 2025.

    Flavor is amazing. Taking a star off for value. Inside reminds me of a local Japanese izakaya I've been to so it's nostalgic. Service was good but seemed a little rushed.

    I love this place. It's rare to find a Korean vegan restaurant and this place overdelivered. The ambiance, the uniqueness, the taste of the food, and the service all delivered. You really can't go wrong with the food options or the cocktails. Everything is excellent. The plant based meat can be hit or miss for people but I loved it.

    Bulgogi bossam bites
    Mia H.

    I came here for dinner with one of my friends for dinner and had a great time trying their menu! Located near Koreatown, this Korean restaurant offers vegan Korean food in a traditional environment. As soon as you walk in, you take off your shoes (which is then taken care of by staff) and you're seated at a table where you sit on the floor (under the table there's an opening though so you don't have to sit on your feet). Service here is great. Their menu offers a HUGE selection of various Korean foods, made vegan. My friend and I ordered their bulgogi bossam bites, ddeokbokki, mushroom truffle bibimbap, and spicy baby dumplings. Our favorites were definitely the ddeokbokki and the mushroom truffle bibimbap. Both were SO flavorful, didn't feel like it was trying to imitate anything or felt like it was missing anything. I would not only reorder both but also recommend these dishes to others. The bulgogi bites were pretty solid but I probably wouldn't reorder. And, the spicy baby dumplings were unfortunately a miss for both of us. Nonetheless, I do think this restaurant does have some good dishes to offer and I wouldn't be opposed to coming back to try more!

    Ambiance (5/5): This was such an immersive dining experience! As soon as you walk in, you are asked to take off your shoes, where you walk up an elevated level to then descend into the floor where the tables are. There are some tables that are normal as well but I think has to be selected when you make your reservation and/or request them. The staff are in traditional outfits, the dividers between the tables are decorated, the furniture/walls/pictures are ornate. The restaurant is fairly dark and noise level was okay to louder since we're nested so close. Service (5/5): Our server gave us good recommendations and was very attentive to our needs. It may be harder to flag someone down but there are plenty of servers/busboys helping throughout that we did not have any issues. Cauliflower bites (5/5): There is a nice breading that soaks up the spicy sauce. It was my favorite of the 3 apps that we ordered. Baby dumpling (5/5): These cannot be fried. I still enjoyed them! Bossam bites (3/5): The skin of the bites were not to my liking. The whole dish is something I would have skipped. Before the entrees, they provided some free kimchi dishes (spicy and non-spicy)! Mongolian Hot Pot (5/5): I felt like there was so much flavor and tons of ingredients that were in the dish. I had enough to take home to-go. My friend's tofu dish was also very flavorful (and I slightly preferred hers over mine!) I can concur that this place is worthy of a Michelin Bib Gourmand. Amazing that the whole menu is vegan-friendly!

The effortless tranquility encourages you to slow down, enjoy the food, and get away from the everyday, hubbub. Their menu leans into fusion dishes with a nod to some of the classic home-style classics. Everything is presented with a refined, elevated touch. Here's what we ordered: ~ Tako Wasabi - 5/5 stars A fiery delight. This appetizer feartures chopped raw octopus marinated in wasabi. It has a lively zest from the wasabi and is topped with tobiko, which adds a pleasant contrast in texture. ~ Honey Makgeolli - 4/5 stars A traditional fermented Korean beverage that is light and pairs brilliantly with your meal. It is a cloudy alcholoic drink served in a metal teapot, and surprisingly, there is much more in that teapot than you would expect. It easily provides six to eight generous pours. The flavor is subtly sweet with a pleasant tang. ~ Temaki Set - 4/5 stars You can order a set of three by choosing from selections 1-17, or you can order a la carte at the listed prices. Some of the temaki stood out more than others. Our two sets included marinated salmon, bluefin tuna, spicy yellowtail, spicy bluefin, and two dynamite temaki. ~ Spicky Pork Ssam Set - 5/5 stars Truly another standout entree that even surpassed my beloved grilled BBQ bossam. You received a generous basket of assorte greens, including romaine, kale, perilla leaves, dandelion leaves, nappa cabbage, and more. It is well worth the price and makes for a fun, interactive dining experience with your family and friends. There is also various banchan offered and this time, they were beyond kind enough to offer refills. The last time we were here, we ordered just as much food and they stated they normally did not offer refills, which I thought was very odd. With its casual bougie aesthetics, this spot has quickly become one of my favorite eateries in Fort Lee-lee, It beautifully blends Korean, Japanese, and American flavors in a way that feels both comforting and elevated. Needless to say, we will be back!

    Opening in 2015 in the heart of Koreatown in Midtown Manhattan, the Korean restaurant, Her Name is…read moreHan, was a great place for my wife and me to come for lunch during our 2nd day in NYC. They have great reviews and it is definitely warranted. The restaurant has a solid website, giving accurate information about the hours and menu. It indicated that weekday lunch time would be a good time to try their value-based lunch menu, letting us sample some of their dishes. We walked over from our hotel just before their opening time of noon, and got in line just as they opened. It was a decent size queue, but the dining space inside was large, and everyone in line was able to be seated (including us). Our main server was Jiwoong, and she was lovely throughout. A carafe of tap water was provided with two glasses, so we could refill our own water (I love this about Korean restaurants...wish other restaurants did something similar). Multiple servers interacted with us throughout, and the beautifully prepared food was delivered exactly on time, with the proper temperature. We ended up ordering 4 things. The non-ipa beer on tap was Ball Lightning Pilsner ($9 for 12 oz) and it was OK. Fried Cod Appetizer ($15) - coming out first, the five chunks of lightly deep fried cod was OK, enhanced by the tartar like sauce. There are four choices from the Lunch Premium Bapsang (a set meal with rice, Japanese equivalent is Teishoku), and we chose two of them. I had the Grilled Atka Mackerel ($19), and my wife had the Spicy Pork BBQ ($21). Both came with white rice, a light bean sprout soup (decent), kimchi (not my favorite), a simple green leaf salad, 3 banchans (loved the fish cakes), some grapes, and a light custard based dessert (which was good). I liked my mackerel, well prepared and fried. The pork was indeed spicy with good flavor. Reading about the restaurant later, learnt that the name came to the founder, meaning two things. 'Han' represents a uniquely Korean emotion of mixed grief, sadness, and hidden resentment...we know that we shouldn't feel this way, but we feel a bit better that other Koreans feel it too. It is also the last name of the founder's mother (most Koreans keep their last name after marriage), so the name is an homage (that's what I read on their facebook page) to her. The restaurant is part of the Resy network, and thus using our AMEX provided a $20 statement credit (once a month...this is my favorite sort of credit since the credit is entirely funded by AMEX, and the restaurant gets their full charged amount). Payment was handled at the table, and we were out in under an hour. As we were leaving, we noticed that there now was a queue to get in, so we came at the right time. In terms of the food, I thought the overall taste was good, but the service, extremely reasonable prices, beautiful presentation, and just the overall atmosphere bumped this up to a great rating.

Banchans were refreshed and refilled - sometimes without being asked. We were very well taken care of. The pancake was good as well as the tartare. HIghlight was definitely the meat and banchans though. We all got ice cream at the end and birthday boy even got a candle in his with some sprinkles. Super cute and very nice of them.

The squid fries were good. The flavor of wings we chose was little too bland and the wings are really small. The kimchi fried rice was too salty. And it really felt like $36 plate of just rice since there was only a few small slices of steak :( They have happy hour deals on some items which are 50% off, such as on the oysters and fries. Overall, very pricey for the portions that are meant for "sharing". Service was okay and it's clean inside.

    Tomorrow will be our last day in New York. We had plans to head up to the Empire State Building…read moreObservatory in the evening, so we stopped here for a quick simple dinner with just one hour to spare. We ordered marbled beef steak and naengmyeon, hoping for a speedy meal. Surprisingly, the beef, cold noodles and banchan all blew us away. The marbled beef was outstanding, and our server grilled it perfectly -- it melted in our mouth. Their mushroom sauce was absolutely fantastic. The broth for the buckwheat cold naengmyeon was authentic beef stock, rich and savory without overpowering the natural flavor of the ingredients. The banchan were also incredibly well-made; we finished nearly every side dish on the table. Service was quick and efficient too. It's such a shame we only discovered this restaurant on our final day, we wish we'd come here earlier. I'd highly recommend this spot. Overall rating: 4.5 to 5 out of 5 stars.

They advertised themselves as having the best katsu in NYC and they may just be right. With our order it came with a bunch of side dishes. Kimchi, Marconi salad, and mashed potatoes, and others. They were all good. Food came out pretty quick as well. Don't think we waited too long for anything. After we were done they gave us some ice cream. I would absolutely love to come back here again for lunch and probably will.

    Tried this spot for Restaurant Week and had a great experience. The $60 three course menu is a…read morereally good value. You get to choose three appetizers, two mains, and one dessert, so it's a great way to try a variety of dishes, especially if you're sharing. The service was friendly and attentive, even though the restaurant was pretty busy. We did have to wait about 20 minutes past our reservation before being seated, but everything went smoothly after that. The restaurant is beautiful inside- liked the interior design choices a lot! My favorite dishes were the asparagus japchae, lotus root gangjeong, and the Korean melon dessert. Overall really enjoyed the meal and would definitely come back to try the regular menu.

    Solid Korean spot with a calm, dim interior. We made res for restaurant week as a group of 6, which…read moreallowed us to try a little of everything on their menu. What I got: - Asparagus Japchae: Very good - instead of traditional Japchae noodles, it's sliced asparagus and mushroom. The marinate was delish! - Shrimp Pancake: It was more like an omelette. Not so much of the actual pancake batter. - Spicy Fried Chicken: Nicely fried, standard. The spicy sauce is on the side, which allows us to adjust our bite. - Bossam: I enjoyed this! More Bossam pieces than lettuce, but overall taste of the meat was good. It didn't have the "bland pork" taste. - Pyongyang Cold Noodle: This was my first time having this dish. Seemed pretty traditional. The broth was on the lighter end for me. - Korean Melon: LOVEDD this dessert! A refreshing way to end the meal. The menu denotes cheese, but it wasn't even noticeable. It has a few toasted pine nuts mixed in, which were SOO good. Overall, a very filling meal and worth the $60 restaurant week value! Nothing absolutely blew me away, BUT the flavors were solid and the staff were great. Would come back for another deal!
