Did a walk-in around 9:30 pm on Friday and it was packed, but we were seated immediately at the bar. Important to note that they only take cash or Amex cards! Beautiful interior design. Real plants and flowers, a mix of earthy and industrial. The ambience was fun and club-like; the music is incredibly loud though so everyone needs to shout to be heard. If a nice dinner conversation is what you're looking for, maybe skip this place. Otherwise, the food and drinks were great. We got the bulgogi burger, which was delicious and filling with a helping of sweet bulgogi on a beef patty served with crispy fries. The lychee martini and cherry highball were tasty and sweet! Ended the night with a decadent chocolate cake which had layers of chocolate mousse on cake.
We came here with a reservation on a Saturday night, and this place was super busy. We arrived about ten minutes early, and lots of parties came in and out while we waited. When we got seated, we were told that there was a 1 hour 45 min time limit to stay. The star of the show here is the ambiance. From the floor-to-ceiling bookshelves on the walls to the dark wood and the large floral centerpieces everywhere, this spot is definitely very Instagram-able. Of the food we got, our appetizers of shishito peppers with okra and beef tartare were the best. They were a good-sized portion, delicious, and well presented. For our entrées, we got the bibimbap, truffle japchae, and the bulgogi burger. The flavors for all of them were great, but not standout. The bibimbap add-on of beef bulgogi ($4 for just a few strips of meat) was a complete rip-off. They also only accept cash or Amex, with an ATM on site. Overall, I would come back again for the gorgeous backdrop and ambiance, but I wouldn't expect the best value or unique flavors.
Mono+Mono is a really cute spot, and the Korean fried chicken? OMG -- absolutely amazing. That alone makes it worth the visit. We tried a bunch of the appetizers and honestly, they were all good. The kale salad was solid, the shishito peppers were delicious, and we shared the fried rice, which hit the spot. The prices are pretty decent, especially for the quality and portion sizes. The only downsides for me were the drinks and payment options. The cocktail I had tasted more like juice -- very light and not what I was expecting. Also, they only accept AmEx, which felt really odd since most places usually don't take it, not the other way around. That said, I'd definitely go back -- mainly for the apps and that fried chicken. Just skipping the drinks next time.
Really beautiful restaurant with tons of plants. I got the raw beef which was pretty good and the mushroom japchae which was yummy but portions kind of small. The drink was alright. Service wasnt that great I wanted to try another drink but no one came so I paid and left.
What we ordered: * korean beef tartare (3/5) * kimchi fried rice (3.5/5) * Truffle japchae (3.5/5) * Fig soju (4/5) [Taste: ] Beef tartare was pretty plain, I don't think anything about this was Korean. Truffle japchae was very fragrant smelling but nothing too special taste-wise. It's hard to mess up fried rice so it was pretty good, but tasted more like Chinese fried rice. [Service: ] You do not get what you pay for, but felt bad for the server though because there's only one other guy. [Comments: ] Tables are so squished together it's impossible for servers to move around, have someone accidentally bump into you, or not hear the conversation of the next table. Good for a vibey girls night out, bad if you're expecting rich flavoring. Also definitely not a "Korean" restaurant as they advertise, it is more fusion. A shame since the interior is very cool!
Greeted by a very kind and welcoming host. Gorgeous interior. Not sure what the theme is but it was pretty endearing, whimsical, fitting for my autumn visit. Tried the Cococane Mojito and Blueberry Cocktail. Pretty to look at but they left a fairly bitter vegetable taste. Almost like rhubarb. The food itself is average. While I did enjoy the overall flavors, I don't know if I could say it was worth the price. I thịmk this place is worth visiting mainly for the interior and vibes. Not many places like it. From the floral touches to the vinyl bookshelf seats, this was a cozy backdrop for dinner and I was in no rush to leave.
I took a visit to Mono For lunch and loved every second of it. Greeted as we walked in and was seated fairly quickly. Great atmosphere with great tunes playing I also enjoyed their scenery. Our waiter was good as well his drink recommendations was on the money, I'm a mojito guy he mentioned the Blueberry cocktail was tasty and well crafted. The wings were awesome hot crunchy and full of flavor. My favorite was the Bulgogi burger, juicy flavorful and tender with every bite. Definitely a 10/10.
Just try the burger! If you were thinking about it try it! It's really worth it! 10/10 recommend and I'll definitely be back to try other items on the menu but for the burger as well of course! Service was very friendly and quick. And the decor was super nice! Great place to take pictures of, or even go to for a date.
Went here for my birthday and had the best time. Great ambience. Great food. Great drinks. The waiter brought me a rose. Loved it!
Mono+Mono is probably one of the prettier interior looking restaurant out there with flowers and decor designed very beautifully! The record bookshelf area with rotating records on top adds a warm and futuristic vibe to the entire dining experience. So if you only care about the aesthetics and instagram-worthy photos, this is the place for you! The food was where it didn't meet our expectation, especially for the price. The galbi jjim, one of my most beloved Korean dish, was the biggest let down. It came with 5 pieces but the meat was not as tender as it should be, it was a bit more tough and chewy which is not reflective of traditional galbi jjim. The porridge was also on the blander side, even though it did come with a good portion of chicken. The truffle japchae was very flavorful, but the lack of meat made the dish overly simplistic in terms of flavor and texture. The best items we got though had to be the clam chowder and fried chicken wings. The clam chowder was so rich and intense that it paired PERFECTLY with the toast that accompanied the dish, we cannot recommend this highly enough! The fried chicken wings were perfectly crispy and moist in the inside, which is the perfect snack to pair with your cocktails or beer. The bimibap was just okay, nothing too extraordinary but didn't taste bad. Overall we had a good dining experience, even though for some reason they didn't have a record of our reservation, but it was resolved since we came early enough that there were seats available. No one asked to check-in about our food, so we didn't get the opportunity to raise our concerns. Overall, there is so much potential for Mono-Mono to be amazing, especially with its beautiful interior decor. Hope this helps them achieve the very best. Thank you for reading and best of luck! (:
Mono Mono was such a beautiful restaurant! Its decor and aesthetic is out of this world. Probably one of the most nicest decorated restaurants I've ever been to. The entire restaurant is decorated with honey and plants, there are also decorations of old vinyl records everywhere. The decor is absolutely breathtaking and stunning! The service was also fast and the servers were really friendly. This is a Korean American fusion spot where the food is a blend of American and Korean. The japchae was really delicious as well as the fries. It could be that it was really delicious because they just put a lot of salt in it. But none the less, the food was good and tasty! It can be a little pricey though, and the meals are around $50 for two items. You should come here for special occasions such as birthdays or anniversaries. Price: $30-$50 Rating: 8.5/10
A superlative experience in this come-as-you-are Korean fusion restaurant in the East Village. The kitchen provides the discerning palate with inspired plates. Ambience is warm, inviting and enjoyable. No stress, no attitude. Come. Relax. Enjoy.
How this place has a 4.0 I don't get because this is absolutely a 5.0 quality restaurant! First of all, the decor and vibe!?!? Best date-night spot I have ever seen. Absolutely beautiful inside- from the bar to the seating area. I booked ahead on Resy and requested the cool book-nook seat in the notes. I was pleasantly surprised that they honored my request! The wall seats are so cool and definitely a good spot for a photo. Only slight "problem" was that the table was very small and we had trouble fitting everything, we even spilled a water. 10/10 WINGS! please don't skip out on them. The spicy salmon roll was soooo fresh and tasty. My boyfriend also really liked his bulgogi burger. Our waitress was super friendly. I have already recommended this place to several friends! read more
4.5 rounded up to 5 What a beautiful restaurant! I've seen this place on social media a lot throughout the years and was excited to finally try it out. Was worried it'd just be instagram hyped pretty but the food was really good too! We tried two of their cocktail sojus - the bluebrry and omija. Both were really good! the blueberry was a little sweeter than the omija but both had good amount of tartness to balance out the sweet Food wise, we got: - half half chicken wings: how are they so crunchy and saucy at the same time?? Crazy science. Both were so good. The spicy one had a slight kick that I think most people would find pleasant. - dongchimi ceviche: good but don't think I'd order it again - baechu jeon: a little soggy in the middle, seemed a little under cooked. The edges were nice and crispy though - Galbi jjim: this thing had good flavor and texture but it was SO salty. Almost unbearably so. A bit disappointing - Kimchi fried rice: it was very good! had good kimchi flavor, wasn't spicy at all. I would recommend this place so people can try the chicken wings because they were so good!! read more

Super cute interior, friendly staff, and decent food. Nice spot for dates with closed off bookshelf seating areas :) FOOD: Soy Garlic Wings (8/10) - Reminds me just like bonchon. Super solid and juicy wings with the perfect glaze Kimchi Fried Rice (7/10) - Good flavor, but pretty oily compared to most kimchi fried rice I've had. Worth trying Truffle Japchae (5/10) - Smells like truffle but you can't taste it at all. Extremely oily as well. read more
The vibes of MONO+MONO are so uniquely beautiful. I was truly blown away by the beautiful bookcases, dried flowers, and wooden decor scattered throughout the place. The food was a bit of a let-down for me and the service wasn't the most attentive, but the ambiance is truly unmatched. FOOD [4/5] + Squash Soup (3/5) A pretty good take on squash soup. I wish it had a little more depth and flavor because it just tasted like soup out of a box. It was also served a little cold, which was unappetizing. + 6 Chicken Wings (5/5) These were great! I loved the addition of veggies and sauce. The chicken wings are crunchy, juicy, and flavorful. A bit expensive for just 6 wings but I would order again! I would come back to MONO+MONO to try more food but this is a great place to take a date. :) read more

MONO+MONO has that dark, moody vibe that feels made for date night -- cozy lighting, shelves full of books (no, you're not expected to read them), and just enough atmosphere to make you feel cooler than you are. There's a huge flower arrangement in the middle of the room that's definitely trying to be the main character -- and honestly, it kind of works. Food-wise, the braised short rib was super tender and packed with flavor. The crazy kimchi fries were messy in a good way -- spicy, cheesy, and hard to stop picking at. Solid spot if you're looking for good food and a place that feels just a little more interesting than your usual dinner out. Service was solid, what you would expect at a place like this. read more
May 26, 2026,I went to this restaurant because it was recommended by my friends. To my surprise I was very disappointed with their food quality, service and atmosphere. We ordered beef tartare , was not tasteful, potato wedges was not cooked properly, kingcrab and salmon roll truffle japchae was tasteless. I found out the chef were not Korean but from a Latin country. This place atmosphere was very dark and it appeared mostly wee young customers having more drinks with their food. I would not go back. Judge for yourself. I am a foodie and always trying different ethnic foods and giving my rating and as a business owner it means a lot to me the service and the quality of foods. read more

What can I say. We've been here numerous times. This time a party of 7. The place is amazing, it's an asault on your senses - jungle (yes live plants galore), DJ spinning, 15K album wall, studio tape player, conveyer belt on the cieling carring album covers...and then the food. Must have - wings, clam chowder, braised beef short ribs, Truffle Japchae - glass noodles with mushrooms and truffle oil We've never been disppointed read more
We were accommodated as a group of 8 celebrating my friend's birthday! They were super great with us and service was fast and timely. They did say the amount of food we originally proposed were not that much food for 8 people but honestly we were all so full after eating all the dishes. The vibes here are perfect for a get together and a date night (my friend has been here on a first date five times) and I definitely enjoyed my time here. I think the only thing I would flag is that the price is really high and especially because we were charged $30 for two tiramisu with birthday candles also. Kind of pricey... and the tiramisu isn't that good so I would recommend probably bringing your own cake here and seeing how much it is to accommodate it. -- APPS -- Baechu jeon 1/10 - Korean pancake. Absolutely soggy and not good. I wasn't a fan- I've definitely had better. Artichoke - 1/10 waste of money- hard to chew and eat Mono wings- 10/10 amazing actually. So crispy and tasty. I always expect this to be good at a Korean restaurant though. The soy garlic was flavorful and not too oily and/or coated! -- MAINS -- Truffle japchae 10/10 - probably my favorite one! So tasty and flavorful. Bibimbap- 4/10 very average... don't know why someone would pay for this other than dieting. Kimchi fried rice - 6/10 good but it taste less kimchi than expected. Egg is cooked nicely. Strip steak 10/10 - my fave! Everything was cooked to perfection and the cooked carrots made the mashed potato even better. The meat is so tender. I really enjoyed this one. Braised beef short ribs- 10/10 excellent! Cooked and marinated really well. We also ordered some pork dish that wasn't on the menu online but it's not that good. -- DESSERT -- Tiramisu 1/10 $15 too much. I didn't like it- very bland and not soft enough. Overall I really enjoyed the mains more than the apps I especially didn't like the artichoke and the Korean pancake which I would avoid at all cost since the price tag is already so hefty. I would prioritize other things or even just order more wings. My favorites were def the skirt steak and the truffle japchae. read more

I came here for dinner one day and truly had a good time. The interior of the restaurant is probably one of the most stunning restaurants that I've been to in New York. It's spacious, with high ceilings and plenty of seating as well as detailed decor, with natural greenery and records everywhere. Service was good here. My friend and I got their truffle japchae and a sushi roll to share. The truffle japchae was amazing and was packed full of flavor. I just wish they had an option to add a protein or something to it. The sushi roll was also pretty solid. Would come back here to try their fixed menu or other items! read more
One of the cutest restaurants I've ever been to?? You'd never guess the interior looked like that given how innocuous the exterior looks. We had a party of 3, and technically you need a party of 4 for prix fixe, but the staff was kindly able to accommodate our request! The prix fixe was A LOT of food, though. We got so full off of the apps that we could only take a few bites of our individual entrees at the end. Something to keep in mind if you plan to do prix fixe with a smaller group! With that being said, we only got so full off the apps because they were all so delicious! Seriously all hits no misses. My Wagyu fried rice at the end was also phenomenal - recommend! Overall, this spot is worth a visit! Just be sure to come on an empty stomach! read more

When you walk in you complete disconnect from the hustle of NYC into one of the coolest spaces in NYC. Records line the bookshelf walls & amazing fresh flowers everywhere & large glass jars of soju brewing line the back wall & behind the bar. Truly an enchanting enclave. The food was so creative and amazing flavors I've never experienced before. Every dish from apps to entrees was a culinary adventure. Plus the soju drinks were works of art & delicious fruit & spice flavors. And the coconut cake with buttercream icing was outrageous. Well done all around, we will be back!!! read more
You must make a reservation here! The place is super cute and nice for a date night!! Try to get seated next to the bookshelf it's so cuteee. Service is pretty good and food comes out fast. I got the half and half wings and the truffle japchae which was enough for 2 people. Everything is very rich in flavor/filling, but I didn't think it was anything special. Overall the vibes are super nice but the food is alright!! Worth a try if you're coming to nyc and want korean fusion food. read more

This place has the coolest decor/ambiance. Good lychee martinis, and some more adventurous options like a pepper martini or pickle martini. We enjoyed the food, apps especially. Don't miss out on the shoshitos/okra! For mains the japchae noodles were tasty but a bit monotonous, and the kimchi rice really needed the bulgogi to shine. Bimibap (served w soy meat substitute) was just ok. Detracting from the experience were the servers pushing our table to leave at the end. read more
We had an 8 PM reservation for 14 but arrived at 7:47. Despite that, our seats weren't ready until 8:16. When we asked for an update around 8:03, the front desk attendant simply told us we had to wait 15 minutes. Meanwhile, they seated another large party that arrived after us. It was frustrating that reservations didn't seem to be managed properly--what's the point of booking ahead if the timing isn't respected?. Food-wise, it was good and unique. The truffle japchae was great--you could really taste the truffle. I also enjoyed the kimchi fried rice. The shishito peppers were interesting, with a nice spice and seasoning. Some dishes leaned a bit heavy on the salt, though. We also tried a meat dish (I forgot the name), which was savory and tender on my end. However, my friends, who had larger pieces, found theirs tougher to chew. It seemed like some pieces might have been overcooked or not handled evenly while cooking. We also got the infused soju, which is perfect for those with a lower tolerance--it mostly just tasted like juice. The decor is really cute, with books in the background, adding to the cozy atmosphere. Overall, I'd say this place is better suited for a date night rather than a large group gathering. Disclaimer: They only take Amex and Cash, so be prepared when you come read more
A flower shop/cafe/restaurant is gonna blow your mind. Beautiful interior design of a library. The seating inside is very cute. You can sit in these tall chairs next to the shelves and it'll look like you are framed artwork. The service is good. They filled up our water pretty frequently and the servers were very welcoming. We got the Caesar salad. It was good but probably had a little too much dressing. I had the bulgogi burger paired with fries which were delicious. Very juicy and get ready for your hands to get messy. A nice combo of sweet but also salty with the bulgogi. My wife got the bulgogi kimchi fried rice which was also delicious. Not as spicy as other kimchi fried rice I've had. Definitely make a reservation when going even for lunch or dinner as the restaurant can get very crowded. read more
Lovely date spot. Had lunch here with my husband and we had a great time. The interior is so aesthetically pleasing. When you walk in you're drawn in by the beautiful decor and strong aroma of fresh flowers. There are old vinyls that line the walls, and there are a couple of tables along that wall with high chairs and each are tables for two. Each of those tables are lined with a frame that you literally walk into to get to your seat, which makes a perfect photo op. The ambiance is so romantic, which seems a bit of a juxtaposition with their menu which offers some gastropub like items on their menu, such as burgers, and fried chicken. My husband and I ordered a ceasar kale salad to share, which was good but had a bit too much dressing. I myself, got the bulgogi kimchi fried rice, which was so flavorful and tasty. The balance of flavors between the kimchi and bulgogi was perfect and the cheese on top tied it all together. My husband got the bulgogi burger which he really enjoyed. The burger was juicy and delicious. The fries were also A+. Would want to come back to try other items on their menu especially the korean fried chicken. read more
I seen Mono+Mono all over Tiktok, so my guard was up when I walked in. In my experience, places that are hyper curated like this tend to lack attention to detail when it comes to the food, and I was here to GRUB. I was nervous as I walked in with my big bro, my grand big bro, and grand bigs sister. Grand big RARELY invites me to dinner, so this was a big event. This place passed the vibe check with flying colors. Little 2 seat high top tables tucked under a 20 foot wall of 15,000 vinyl records, the most beautiful floral arrangements you've ever seen, jars of fermented foods above the bar, honestly one of the best ambiances I've seen in the city. It was almost too good. My words feel futile trying to describe it. As our group was appreciating the modernist quasi-industrial interior, I said "I hope it's not just fluff to hide some mid-food... it's feelin real fluffy in here..." Right when the words left my mouth I wished I could have them back. Grand big shot me a look that I can only liken to a prime Mike Tyson in a pre fight faceoff. I knew I would get a knuckle sandwich later. We opted to share everything and ordered 12 wings (6 garlic & 6 spicy), shishito peppers, a baby artichoke, bulgogi fried rice, and 2 bulgogi burgers. I almost ordered a martini but grand big doesn't drink, that would have been strike 2. The crispy wings made me eat my words right off the bat. They were delicious. No fluff. I couldn't decide if I liked the garlic or the spicy more. The shishito peppers did their thing as well. I didn't eat the artichoke because I never understood the artichoke hype, but the rest of the table loved it. The bulgogi fried rice was GAS, but was a small portion for $22.95 if we are keeping it a buck. The burgers were the only thing that we got where my fluff meter was correct. It was eh. Although this was the first bulgogi burger I've ever had to be fair. When I come back, it will be for the wings, shishito peppers, and a couple of martinis as these drinks looked bomb. All in all, Mono+Mono should be in the dictionary next to "ELITE 2nd date spot." I'm out the game now, but fellas this should be your only 2nd date spot. I think it'd be too much for a first date, but I would always do a chill first date when I was still hoopin. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews read more
The atmosphere inside was amazing, such unique decorations and it looked like I was in like a wizard's quarters. Very cool and the service was fast. However, I was a little disappointed in the food. The bulgogi burger was definitely pretty good but the bibimbap was very arbitrary and didn't feel like real korean food. Everything was just alright and I couldn't feel the Korean influence on the food as much as I would've liked. But very cool space! read more

Ask the Community - MONO+MONO
How do I secure a reservation? There is no place to make one on yelp nor do they answer the phone. I am very interested in visiting this establishment.
Resy
Do you need to show vaccination proof?
No. We were not asked to show proof of vaccination
Is it a good place for vegetarians?
Absolutely! My girlfriend is vegetarian and she shared a couple of plates with my sister and loved every dish. Cannot exactly recall what they had but they enjoyed it a lot.
When is happy hour?
We have happy hour between 4:30pm to 6:30pm everyday even weekend too
Is the soju sampler still available on the menu?
Yes it is. But please listen, that soju has a mind of its own. Drink too much and you will wake up with a massive hangover. Such a fun place and the wings may be the best I've ever had.
