    I passed by this place on my way to work. The menu catches my attention. My colleagues and I tried on our lunch break. We were not disappointed. I ordered savory Bulgogi. It was flavorful. The place was neat and staff were very friendly. Great fast food options. I'm glad that I was able to check it out.

    Savory Bulgogi Bowl

    This place is walking distance from my office. I was craving something that was somewhat healthy and quick. Found Ongi on Yelp. Ended up ordering the beef bowl over super greens. The meal came out super quick. I decided to eat at the restaurant so it would still be hot. The food was really good. The place is popular. When I walked in, there was hardly anyone in the restaurant. After I took a seat, it stayed wall-to-wall busy the rest of the time. Still, they have a system down where no one seemed to be waiting for long. I'm definitely putting this place into my normal rotation when I'm in this office.

    Korean build your own bowl place, for a quick lunch or dinner. Ordering is easy since you can take a menu sheet and tick off the items that you want. There's a mix of typical options like corn or cucumber, in addition to Asian ingredients like seaweed. The portion size is pretty big and ended up lasting me for two meals. Decent option if you're looking for something a little different for lunch.

    Quality fast casual Korean, great option for a quick and delicious meal in the area. Ordering in the store involves marking up a straightforward menu, choosing your base, protein, and so on. You can customize your bowl from scratch or build from a set of options for whatever is on special. I love that they offer both rice and japchae noodles, such a nice touch. I didn't notice the kimchi aioli included with my order, or else I would have asked to hold it; other than that, the dish was great, with big portions, good spice, and fresh ingredients. This spot is definitely going to become a regular destination for a hearty lunch on the go!

    Walking into Ongii, you're immediately enveloped by a warm, minimalist charm--think clean lines, soft ambient lighting, and a casual yet intimate vibe. The service is impeccable--attentive, but never intrusive. The menu focuses on bold, comforting flavors with a clean, modern twist. Dishes arrive beautifully plated, but they still feel hearty and satisfying. The meats are usually tender and well-seasoned, with rich marinades that balance sweet, savory, and slightly smoky flavors. If you try any grilled items, they typically come out juicy with just the right char. The sides are just as impressive. Expect fresh vegetables, crisp textures, and vibrant flavors that complement the main dishes perfectly. The rice dishes tend to be warm and comforting, while soups or stews are flavorful without being too heavy -- perfect for lunch. Portion sizes are solid for the price, making it a great option for a casual lunch without feeling rushed or overly full. The overall food experience feels thoughtful, balanced, and satisfying -- the kind of place where you leave already thinking about what you'll order next. Special to Lala, Yvoh, Courtney and lyanel :)

    Great service. Great people. Chill atmosphere. Great food!! Always satisfied with my lunch!

    Only 6 shrimps in a bowl and they call it symbol bowl... could not give any less fillings and a lot of rice. So scamming and deceitful for a 15 dollars worth bowl Will never go again

    Had walked by a few times but a on post gym Trader Joe's run the pictures were enticing enough…read more Got a Lanzhou beef noodle combo with a drink and a lamb burger. The beef soup is clear and light and the noodles have a delightful texture, with a slight chew and good bounce. There's a good portion of braised beef as well. Tender but a bit fatty for my taste, but given the portion it's not going to kill you. Lamb burger ended up as overkill and will be consumed as leftovers but a quick sampling let me know that it's gamey and fatty with strong notes of cumin. Not a bad thing, but something to note for people that might not generally enjoy lamb or cumin. Black pepper beef rice bowl was solid too. Spice wise, you can calibrate accordingly but I'd recommended at least their regular spice level. Decent amount of tenderized but still chewy beef. Both dishes came with a salad of celery, carrot, cucumber, peanuts and seaweed strips in a light sauce. Couldn't quite figure out the sauce but it was lightly tart and refreshing. Space is clean and modern. Neutral wood, well lit. Service is friendly enough. If you dine in, you order at the kiosk and they'll deliver to your table. We had leftovers that they graciously packed up. Solid choice. I hope they stick around as they do bring a different cuisine to the area.

    OMG-I just enjoyed one of the most delicious and flavorful Ahi Tuna Poke Bowls EVER!!! Run, don't…read morewalk to try this! It was so delicious. See my photos. The Ahi Tuna was the perfect and proper color it should be. The flavors were SPECTACULAR-WONDERFUL!!! NOTE: WAGAMAMA has added to their menu, since my last visit, so you now have a RAMEN SELECTION, and other yummy additions. I was too full from my spectacular Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl to try the Korean bbq Chicken Wings ($8.95) but, I will definitely be back to try them!! I'll post menu photos so you have an idea of the delicious food choices. (April 2026) My very first delicious bite of Ahi Tuna had a heavenly garlic flavor, it was wonderful, and the sweet green seaweed with rice only added to the wonderfulness. Vertical slices of cucumber, onion and scallion, also add deliciously to my wonderful Poke Bowl. Toasted sesame seeds, too. SIMPLY MARVELOUS!!! Remember to be sure to mix the poke bowl rice as you eat, so that you mix the rice with the yummy sauce that may accumulate at the bottom of the poke bowl. I usually eat a little while, THEN, mix the rice. This was so good, I had to eat, eat, eat, before I could stop to mix. LOL. That sweet green seaweed was so yummy!! A lovely mix of flavors...the garlic, the sweetness....I LOVED IT ALL SO MUCH!!!! When was the last time you enjoyed a dish so very much that you felt like standing up in the restaurant and telling everyone: THIS IS SOOO DELICIOUS!!!! Well, I felt like that, but I didn't stand up and tell everyone, but I did tell the manager, who happen to come to the table to ask how everything was. And I let him know how much I was enjoying the Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl. He explained why and how the tuna was so flavorful. We had a delightful brief foodie chat. What a joy!! The service is very nice here. I like the atmosphere too. And the music, which is cool; it does not interfere with thinking, or having a conversation. I really like it here . The women's rest room was very nice, and clean, with a Dyson Hand Dryer, so no paper towels on the floor. Yay! Helping our environment, too!! And I like the black and white wall paper, too. See my photos My last visit I enjoyed the Pad Thai, and the same non-alcoholic beverage, " Asian Mint Limeade", from the MINDFUL DRINKS area on the beverage menu. ($9.50) (April 2026). A nice treat! It does have a light carbonation (bubbles). This visit my delicious meal was from the BOWLS SECTION of the food menu, it was the AHI TUNA POKE BOWL ($17.95) (April 2026) With warm, and hot weather on the way, I know I will be enjoying this AHI TUNA POKE BOWL again...and again! If you love good food, good service, and a very cool environment, put this location of WAGAMAMA on your list ! (East side) LOCATED On THIRD AVE, at East 39th Street. There is OUTDOOR SEATING, too, with red umbrellas. See my photos. Enjoy yourself here. Totally delightful. There are several locations in Manhattan. I did not know that. So, the one I have dined at is ON THIRD AVENUE, at EAST 39th Street. Look for the Red Umbrellas outside, at the corner of East 39th Street and Third Avenue. Enjoy!!!

I came…read morehere for dinner without a reservation on a Friday night, and I had a great meal and experience. It's not too big inside, but the tables are decently spaced out. There is also bar seating. It's a bit tricky figuring out what to do with your coats since the chairs aren't really meant to hang winter coats on, but there is a clothing rack in the back that someone can help you with. Everything is ordered via your phone using Toast Tab which was convenient since you didn't have to wait for your server. There was also happy hour when we arrived (6:15pm) so we ordered two hand rolls ($5 each). We ordered the chirashi bowl and the shoyu ramen. I thought the portion sizes were good and I loved the texture of the noodles in the ramen as well as my selection of fish. For dessert, we ordered the hojicha pudding which was delicious as well.

    My friends and I were on our way to Little Alley, a Shanghainese restaurant that's been a Murray…read moreHill mainstay for years when we pivoted to Shuya because we peeped their sign saying they billed themselves an "omakase noodle restaurant." We were guided toward the back, past white marble tables with beautiful mustard colored velvet chairs to the long countertop facing the open kitchen. We scanned QR codes to pull up the menu, and despite no omakase noodle offerings to be found, decided to stay because the menu options they did have sounded too good to pass up. Of course they had classic shio and miso ramens, but they also had a duck tsukumen, a red snapper ramen, a black truffle ramen, and the dish I set my sights on-- the uni mazemen. There were also lots of appetizers and a long list of high end onigiri featuring proteins like scallop lemon shio, A5 wagyu ponzu, and bluefin chutoro on offer. This place was the real deal. Our group shared the tebasaki wings-- so crispy and so flavorful, I could have inhaled a whole plate of these. The salmon, ikura, and apple appetizer that was served in a glass chalice was superb but even better was the bluefin tuna avocado sashimi with wasabi. That one was a winner across the board. And then my uni mazemen, which really stole the show. There was a very generous portion of uni that mixed with the savory sauce and al dente ramen noodles perfectly. This dish was rich, unctuous, and fresh and definitely delivered in value, though it was double the price of most other noodle bowls. Uni is a delicacy. Having just returned from a second trip to Japan I can say this place is really as good as any restaurant I visited in Japan, and it's right here in Murray Hill. These Murray Hill bros are lucky.
