Pollack Roe, Scallion, Kimchi bacon spreads with Salt Bread

Ted P.

Salt Bread Ko is really amazing! The store is located right around k-town and there's usually a line. They tend to sell out really quick within 10-15 mins of opening and make more batches every 30 minutes throughout the day. If you want to grab some on the weekend, make sure to get there early! I tried both the sweet and regular breads and ended up enjoying the regular ones with spreads a lot more as they were super savory. The bread was soft on top but had a nice flaky/buttery bottom with a nice salty kick to it! My favorite spreads of the three I tried was the Scallion followed by Pollock Roe. The Pandan and Strawberry were also great but I felt the sweetness overpowered the flavor of the salt bread just a bit. If you have an air fryer at home, these are perfect to warm at a low temp for a little before serving!

TL;DR: TOO salty, but maybe we got a bad batch Ended up coming by here and waiting for their next batch of salt bread to be done so we could order. You order at a kiosk inside, which they only had 2, and it gets crowded in there with people who are waiting for their order from the previous batch/waiting to order when it's done. The service was great though. They were so friendly and nice. I think they could benefit with crowd control inside. The space is VERY small, and people who got their order would just stand inside, making it difficult for more people to come in and order/people who are waiting for their order to come out. Additionally, I think they could package their breads a bit better. Separately rather than throwing them in the to-go bags. Overall, their salt breads come out nice and hot. FOOD: ~Original salt bread (2/5): I know the name says salt bread, but these were unbearably salty. The spreads I got were also on the salty side so it did not dampen the saltiness much. ~Black Osetra Caviar with Truffle Spread (3/5): I give this a higher rating because, while it is expensive, it comes with a GENEROUS amount of caviar. This was definitely better than the salt bread itself. ~Nutella salt bread (2.5/5): Still salty, but the sweetness from the nutella spread made it a little better. The spread itself was just okay. Overall, I wouldn't wait in a long line for this again.

Back to Salt Bread Ko after two months and saw they've got some changes since the opening. Instead of hourly drops, they now bake their salt bread fresh in small batches every 30 minutes. The prices also went up: from $10 to $12 for 2 Salt Bread plus a spread, and from $12 to $14 for 3 Salt Bread. I had to wait for a bit for their new batch, so mine was still warm every time I get it. I also just noticed they use Isigny Sainte-Mère butter (a premium french butter I actually use at home!) which makes the bread extra rich with a touch of mineral sea salt. ＊Uji Matcha Salt Bread $6.50 * I was genuinely blown away by this one. This is the least sweet flavor out of all their sweet salt bread I've tried, with a slight bitterness from the rich matcha whipped cream. They were generous with the filling too, as there was matcha cream throughout the entire bread! ＊Strawberry White Chocolate Ganache Salt Bread $6.50 The strawberry white chocolate ganache was light, fluffy, and reminded me of strawberry yogurt. It's less sweet than the strawberry lychee jam flavor I tried before, and the bottom stayed crispy. ＊OG Salt Bread ** Their salt bread is so plump! Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, with the perfect butter hole and a crunchy bottom. Tbh I liked it even more on its own than with the spreads. But if you're getting spreads, I'd rank (1) truffle (2) chili crisp (3) pollack roe. 2 salt bread + 1 spread for $12, 3 Salt Bread for $14

You can imagine my excitement when another salt bread bakery opened up in NYC! Salt bread has blown up for a reason, and this spot is doing it right. Everything is baked fresh, with new batches coming out every hour. It's buttery, soft, and pillowy on the inside, with a crispy, golden bottom that makes all the difference. Think of it as a cross between a steamed bun and a croissant. They also offer a great selection of dips and spreads like truffle, garlic knot, and nori sesame oil. There was a long line when I went but luckily it moved pretty fast. I need to come back to try more, especially one of their sweet options.

Wow. I've heard so much about this place from the salt bread hype and never felt the urge to go. However, one day one of my friends who was visiting wanted to check it out and let me just say: I get the hype now. Fortunately when we went, they just came out with a new batch of salt bread so it was hot out of the oven. The bread was so fluffy and buttery on the inside but the bottom was very crispy. We also got their chili spread, their scallion spread, and their kimchi bacon spread. I would say to skip the kimchi bacon as most in our group didn't like it. However, the chili and scallion were big hits (maybe try even mixing them!). Great spot for a small bite in K-town and I will definitely be back.

We were waiting for our lunch reservation nearby and checked out Salt Bread Ko after seeing the line of people waiting for it to open shortly before noon. We grabbed a pack of 3 + spread to share and while I only had the og salt bread plain it was great warm and pretty buttery. I appreciated that there was a good amount of salt as well for flavor and overall a tasty snack. I didn't try the spread or the sweet/savory combos but they don't have everything available at each hour. Definitely come when a new batch drops for warm bread.

Their salt breads are a must-try!! The bottom of the bread is super crispy. They offer savory and sweet options too. Highly recommend the pandan and strawberry. They also offer dips that pairs really well with the bread!!

A new salt bread place opened recently. It's more of a takeout place. Very limited seating in the restaurant, and a bench outdoor. It has specific time drops (go to the website for the time drops so you can get the fresh out of the oven experience). They still write the time drop schedule on the door but it's easier to go to the website. Yay! I finally timed it with the next freshly baked drop was available. 10 minutes before the bread was baked/cooled down, the employees tells you to put your order in via the kiosks. There is an order limit of 3 breads per person. The savory/salted ones were ready quicker since it didn't need extra preparation. The sweet ones took a bit longer since the employee had to cut the bread open, wait for the bread to cool before piping the cream into the bread. It tasted better freshly baked so enjoy!

First time trying it... not sure about the hype since the next store that sells custard tarts also offers salt bread, but let's try this place since I think it is the first place in Koreatown to sell salt bread. I ordered the 2 salt bread + garlic knot spread, pandan coconut, and strawberry chocolate. I preferred the savory over the sweet. The bread itself was crispy on the bottom (so much oil) and soft on top, with a sprinkle of sea salt, which reminded me of a pretzel, just way softer. The wait wasn't too long on a Saturday at 1ish, once you ord

"Meh"... it's ok la. I think for anyone who hasn't visited Seoul and tasted their famous salt bread, then this would be OK. Bc in lieu of airfare, you're getting an introduction. I was surprised there's a line around lunch time, since this is more like a breakfast or snack. The line was short, waited about 5-10 mins, before ordering through the kiosk. ( congestion is from the kiosk ordering). Service is that you get a packaged good. Small shop. More than 6 ppl will be uncomfortable. Grabbed their original salt bread, nothing fancy, no spread (bc if it's truly the amazing version with the fluffy butter center, you won't need it) and ... it was ok. Would I buy again? Nah.

Food 5/5 Value 2/5 Ooomph salt bread ko is officially my favorite salt bread spot at the moment! While the price is definitely on the higher side ($12 for 3), the quality makes it worth the splurge. The bread is incredibly fluffy and soft with a rich, buttery center that actually melts in your mouth, exactly what a perfect Shio Pan should be. I arrived at 10:30 AM and was lucky there was no line. Note: Their flavored options aren't ready until noon, so I'll definitely be back to try those next!

Anisha P.

Cute little store- gets busy very quickly! The salt bread is so buttery and delicious. The Chili crisp butter is fantastic with the bread. This might be my favorite snack!

Christine L.

Heard buzz about this place and decided to check out. It was just a handful of people inside when I arrived. It is easy to order from the kiosk. There are no registers, so its all card or tap to pay only, no cash. Staff said that maximum that they were selling per person was 3. I couldn't eat too many & was by myself so I ordered 2 with the strawberry lychee spread which was $2.00 extra. There are many spread options. Some are additional. My order was quick and came out hot. The sweetness of the spread mixed well with the salty of the bread. Definitely do need a drink. Places is small with few bench seats, inside and out. Can definitely see this place being a hit when the weather gets warmer.

Appreciate places with simple menus and superior artisan products. These rolls are deliciously indulgent. They're made with French butter and best eaten onsite right out of the oven. Salt breads are all the same here but you can add a spread (strawberry lychee jam, garlic, truffle, chili crisp, kimchi and bacon, pollack roe, scallion, everything etc.) or have them with a filling served like a sandwich. They have a rewards program and screen ordering. Lovely staff. read more

The service was fast, they were very friendly, all their pastries are baked in house. The only drawback for me I found it very expensive for some of their pastries, but since it is in the middle of Korean town and tourists area you would expect to pay more. In talking to some loyal customers, I agreed that their pastries were delicious. read more

Tried this place last week and decided to go back yesterday. I ordered two orders of the 3 breads. Last week I did the same and it came in a nice box with a handle bag. This time they separated them into two paper bags. I expected the same packaging as the first visit. I asked the GIRL at the counter for a bag and the Asian guy with the glasses making the bread wanted to add his comment with a snarky attitude by saying "Normally we charge you 30 cents but this time we'll give it to you for free, everything costs money". What customer wants to hear and be spoken to like that. Honestly left a bad impression on me and I won't be coming back as often as I wanted to because of him. read more

If you're lucky to get in while one of their hourly drops are still available, you won't be disappointed. I'd say their plain salt bread is better than the ones with stuffing. The dips are fun. Some are more popular than others and can get sold out quickly. read more

Absolutely worth every minute of the wait!! Salt bread ko is on another level; it's comparable to viral salt bread stores in Korea. The fact that we have something this good right here in the city is honestly such a treat. The bread is incredibly soft and chewy, rich and buttery in the inside, and has the perfectly crispy bottom that makes every bite satisfying. Tried both the original and the caviar ones, and they were both amazing. The spreads are also a must! They have such a diverse range of flavours that take the bread to a whole new level. My personal favorites were chili crisp and kimchi bacon - both bold, flavourful, and the perfect complement to the bread. Can't wait to go back and try other flavours! Definitely worth the hype read more

I was able to catch them with a small line while they ran out (around 10:30ish AM on a Sunday) and were still baking so there were only a few in front of me. As we waited in the store anticipating the bread, we could easily smell the unrelenting waft of French butter tingling the nostrils. You knew that no matter what, it was gonna be good. I ordered the 3 pack of salt bread with nothing else. The piping hot bread was soft and squishy with a sprinkle of rock salt on top. As I bit, I could feel my teeth just sinking into the spongey pillowy goodness. The aromatic butter soaked the innards of the bread and made the bottom extra light crispy like a grilled cheese. As unctuous as it is, it doesn't feel too heavy. I've had salt bread before and this was comparatively just as good. I would love to come back and try the different dips, but to be honest, I don't think it needs it. read more

Salt bread is definitely becoming the new wave around the city, and for good reason. We stopped by around 5:15pm on a Friday and ended up waiting about 15-20 minutes as they needed to bake a fresh batch once we got closer to the front. It seems they prepare the bread in smaller batches to preserve quality and integrity, and I must say, the wait was well worth it. For something so simple, the bread came out hot with a perfect balance of salt and butter, and a soft, pillowy texture that didn't feel too heavy. Since we already had dinner plans, we skipped the spreads and went with the three pieces for $14, though they also offer options like two pieces with a spread, individual flavors, and even sandwiches. What stood out just as much as the bread was the service. The staff clearly care about both their product and their customers, and their communication reflected that. They came outside to keep everyone in line informed and kindly asked people to limit orders to three pieces so everyone could try it. While some spots fade after the initial hype, this feels like a place that will stick around, not just because of the quality, but because of how they run their business. You can feel their level of care and pride reflected not only in the product, but in the overall experience. We loved the bread on its own and are excited to return to try the spreads and individual flavors. read more

I highly encourage to visit Salt Bread Ko. if you are in ktown! I tried several flavors and my ranking goes: tomato, OG, caviar, coconut, and early grey/kimchi bacon spread for now but I'm hoping to try everything soon. Highly recommend OG because it's buttery with crispy bottom. I got lucky and grabbed a fresh batch so the bread was still warm! Definitely grab a new batch if you can. Also, soy milk is a great combo. It's not too sweet. read more

The dessert here is so inviting and pretty. Especially the mousse based ones that look like fruits…read more I got the mango, orange, and the one that looks like a mushroom. The orange has a base made of chocolate Rice Krispies. All of them have more fruity filling than the mousse. They are very fragile. I recommend eating there if you can. Finding can be a challenge because it's busy and there aren't many seats. I got mine to go just to be taken to the park across the street . The mushroom kind are totally ruined. It has strawberriy jelly and it was a mess. The orange one was almost ruined too. The mango has some diced mangoes. I devoured three of them instantly. Definitely come back to try more.

Yummmy!!! What a cute and unique dessert boutique! So many choices but what makes this place stand…read moreout are its adorable and colorful mousse delicacies. The inside was packed with folks! There was no place to sit down because of how busy it was but the staff kept the line moving quick enough. The place still seemed reasonably stocked with their desserts and treats, despite the late afternoon time that I arrived. I ordered 4 different treats to go and they're packed in small box individually. Unfortunately, they didn't quite stay intact during my trek back to my hotel and were tumbled around in the boxes. Nonetheless, the taste and flavors held up well and even after a few days in the fridge. The yuzu daisy has this vivid pastel yellow-pink base and adorable gelatinous yellow gem atop a white flower. The yuzu gives a subtle infusion of tart that is balanced out by the light delicate skin texture of the rest. Sitting atop a thin round rice crispy. I loved the red mushroom one which is a creamy pink mousse inside the cap. The stalk is a thin porcelain-white chocolate light base also filled with a rich cream. Adjacent are two cute little tree nuts. The orange and mango have such vivid colors and are aesthetically pleasing too. Just like the previous ones, their delicate chocolate exterior houses a rich tarty mousse-y filling. I think the mushroom has a better balance and variety of flavors. Although I don't eat mousse treats often, I look forward to trying some of the other ones in the future, like the blueberry, banana and cloud.

I did ask the clerk and even showed him a pic of what I was looking for and he said they never sold them. They only had the linzer cookies and they didn't look so good. They also did not have the lobster tail. They did have the sfogliatelle which they also called a lobster tail. I thought they were not the same? Some bakeries sell both and they are definitely not the same. I did end up buying one of their sfogliatelle with cream and some rugelachs. The sfogliatelle was good but the rugelachs tasted slightly underbaked. It did taste fresh though unlike many I've had in other bakeries. However, for $28 per pound, I wouldn't get it again. For those not having lobster tail and not having the Italian cookies, I will have to give Veniero's a low rating. I never thought an Italian bakery would not carry staples. Very disappointed. I need to find another Italian bakery now.

Getting a fresh loaf used to be my husband's morning tradition, and we've been disappointed for years--until we found Bread Story. The owner, Yann Ledoux, was the executive baker for Eric Kayser USA, and he has kept that legendary tradition alive. The best part? They open early, so you can actually get a warm, fresh-from-the-oven baguette to start your day for $3.50. It has that perfect, shatteringly crisp crust and airy interior that made Kayser the gold standard. It's such a relief to have an authentic French boulangerie back in the neighborhood that focuses on the craft rather than the 'scene.'

Hamburger America

I've been meaning to visit Hamburger America ever since it opened in 2023, and it lived up to the…read moreanticipation. From the moment you walk in, it's clear that this place is more than just another burger joint. The updated Americana-inspired interior feels authentic without being kitschy, and every detail seems carefully considered. What could have been a simple spot for burgers, fries, and shakes instead feels like a genuine passion project dedicated to preserving and celebrating America's burger traditions. I ordered George Motz's Fried Onion Burger, the restaurant's signature take on the Oklahoma-style onion burger. While it shares some similarities with a smash burger, the preparation sets it apart. A generous amount of thinly sliced onions is smashed directly into the beef patty and cooked on the flat-top griddle, allowing the onions to caramelize while soaking up the rich flavor of the beef tallow. As someone who grew up in New York, I've always gravitated toward more traditional burgers with a softer, juicier texture. Onion burgers, on the other hand, are all about maximizing surface area to create that deeply caramelized crust. Hamburger America executes this style flawlessly. The burger arrived with beautifully crisp edges, a savory crust, and a perfect balance between beef, sweet onion flavors, and melted American cheese, and it came with three sliced pickles on the side. The supporting cast deserves recognition as well. The Martin's Potato Roll is an essential part of the experience. The bun is steamed over the burger and onions while they cook, creating a soft, pillowy texture that absorbs all of those flavorful juices without falling apart. It's the kind of detail that elevates a great burger into a memorable one. If you choose a seat at the counter, you'll have a front-row view of the action. Watching the cooks work the flat-top griddle is part of the experience and gives you an appreciation for the precision and consistency behind each burger. There's something satisfying about seeing such a simple food prepared with so much care and attention. The restaurant offers a straightforward setup. Upon entering, you can either grab a seat at the counter or order at the self-service counter. Additional seating is available in the back as well as outside. Despite its popularity, the layout keeps things moving efficiently. Located on the corner of West Houston and MacDougal Streets in SoHo, Hamburger America has quickly become one of NYC's most talked-about burger destinations. Founded by burger historian George Motz, the restaurant feels like a living tribute to regional American burger culture, bringing classic styles that are often overlooked into the spotlight. My first visit left me eager to return. Next time, I'd like to work my way through some of the other burger offerings and finally try the egg salad sandwich, which has developed quite a following of its own. For burger enthusiasts, food historians, or anyone who appreciates a thoughtfully executed American classic, Hamburger America is well worth the visit. Sometimes the simplest foods are the hardest to perfect, and this place proves just how special a burger can be when it's done right.

Before leaving for New York, my husband said I needed to try Hamburger America! After watching…read morevideos about their hamburgers online, he said it was the one thing he absolutely wanted to try from NY and I had to bring back a full report. My friend and I made the trip to get some burgers and they did not disappoint! There is a counter service area where you can get full service or you can order to go or to sit in the back room or patio. We just ordered and sat in the backroom. We ordered both a regular burger and the Oklahoma burger to try both along with some fries of course. The Oklahoma Onion Burger was really the stand out! I'd seen in the videos that they have a special onion slicer to make the onions ultra ultra thin. When they're cooked, they almost melt into the burger. The caramelization is incredible and it's unlike anything I've had before. It was definitely worth the trip and such a drool worthy lunch!
