Receipt for Ramen Soup with egg, bok choy and pork.
Edmond C.

Seoul is in the back of the KTown Food Gallery on the right side of the Katsu vendor. Service is friendly and prompt, even on a busy rainy Monday night. I paid cash and received the ten percent discount. I ordered the Korean Ramen Soup you can build your own from a base price of eight bucks. The egg and veggie addons are a buck fifty each, rice cakes are two dollar addons, and proteins are three fifty each. I ordered the egg, bok choy and pork addons and my beeper went off in about ten minutes. Very efficient. I arrived home and thought I only would have half the ramen soup and saw no pork. After having half, I revisited the container with the ramen noodles and bok choy to take a picture, along with the receipt to demonstrate there was no pork and, lo and behold, there appeared a few slices of pork, which appear in the top right of the container in the accompanying photo. It was such an underwhelming amount of pork, that I felt justified in sharing the picture nonetheless. Look carefully or you'll miss the very modest protein portion... The broth is good, slightly salty, and the ramen noodles and bok choy are not overcooked. The boiled egg was not over boiled to death either. So we have the makings for a good bowl of ramen soup, but the paltry amount of protein needs improvement. At the fifteen dollar plus price point, this is competing with a range of offerings in the Gallery offering far more protein than you will see photographed below. 3 stars.

We got their jjajjangmyeon and tangsuyuk combo from here and it was alright. The flavor of the jjajjangmyeon was off and the tangsuyuk just tasted like Chinese-style sweet and sour pork. At least service was quick and portion wasn't bad. I think you could definitely find better for the price though.

2. Pork Ramen
kristin c.

3.5 Located in Food Gallery 32, first floor. %off when paying in cash. Buzzer given. Got their pork ramen - hot soup on that freezing day. Good price for a large serving. There are options for spice level - mild for me was just right. Prefer japanese ramen noodles and broth was slightly salty for me. Not a lot of seating on the same floor but can go up to the next level for smaller tables and larger ones on the top floor (where other food vendors and restrooms are).

honestly this was surprisingly delicious on both fronts -- I got their special black bean and seafood soup with noodles, and it was hard to decide which I enjoyed more. I really appreciated the variety that was presented, and the seafood soup was packed with seafood and so many chewy bites! the service was also very friendly and I received the food quickly. this is a great spot in food gallery 32 and i would definitely come back again for this dish. there's no specific seating to this restaurant, so be sure to wander around and grab a table as your waiting for your order to come out. definitely a casual place, where you get a buzzer after you order and pick up the food yourself

Bibim Naengmyeon

I ordered a Bibim Naengmyeon. When I received it, there was no meat on it, when the picture shows that there should be meat on it. I asked about it and mentioned the picture, and the lady reluctantly took the bowl back and added the tiniest piece on it, and when I continued to ask for the portion like the one on the picture, she again only reluctantly took it back and had another tiny piece put on it. The egg was also overcooked and the noodles were not that good. This place is a scam, I dont think I will order there again.

Seoul Menu is located in the Food Gallery 32, street level. 10% off for cash payments. I got the garlic chicken which comes with rice, salad, daikon and soup. Service was quick and staff give you a pager so you know when your food is ready. The garlic chicken tasted more like sweet-and-sour chicken, but that was OK. It still tasted good and was fresh. The remainder of the meal was fine as well. Traffic is insane. Take public transportation, rideshare or taxi to get there.

Tteokbokki (uneaten)
Julia L.

Very disappointed in the tteokbokki. Paid with cash for the 10% discount, but even then, I was sorely underwhelmed by the portion size for the price (pictures show an uneaten plate of tteokbokki), especially based on pictures in previous reviews from others. The consistency of the sauce was also lacking, somehow both gloppy and watery in the worst ways like cornstarch-water. The daikon tasted very sour but like it was too old and had gone bad. Overally, everything was lacking in flavor or just tasted flat out bad. Would definitely not recommend this place to anyone.

We as n in the mood for some ramyun and decided to head to gallery 32 since I was in the neighborhood. I got the seafood ramen and it got the spot. I wish they had more seafood selection in the soup but it did the job. Prices are reasonable and the ramen was ready in less than 5 minutes

What an awesome find. We happened to just be walking around after the Wind Up Watch Show and came upon this little food court in Koreatown. We stepped o side and couldn't decide what to get. We stopped here with their A rating and were very happy. It's a bustling food court and very busy with people ordering takeout and to stay. We lucked out getting a spot right by Seoul. Our food was excellent and made to order so very hot. I had the chicken pad Thai and was thankful that the egg was placed on top in the middle. I usually order it without but I forgot. I was able to just take it off with a fork. My man had the shrimp and broccoli and he was very happy. We are happy we stopped in on a whim. Prices weren't too bad either.

Jjolmyeon
Brigitte L.

Located in the Food Gallery 32 it's at the very back behind the stairs. Quick and friendly. We ordered take out to eat back at the hotel. I got the veggie fried rice and hubs got the brown noodles. We also got veggie steamed dumplings to share. Food is hot and fresh and was absolutely delicious. I devoured my fried rice! Keep in mind that given its location it may be hard to find a seat to eat there. But there is seating upstairs as well. The food hall is loud and crowded but service here at this spot is great. You'll definitely enjoy the food.

First, we were underwhelmed by portion sizes; you would really expect more from this kind of place. The food was bland and kind of boring. It also didn't come out fully hot but rather got cold kind of fast. The lady was adding sriracha over the whole dish while she was asking if we wanted it over everything, so there was no point in asking anyways. There is no specific ambience as it's within the food gallery. Not really recommended; there are so many better options within the same gallery, not to even consider the whole block!

Jjamppong
Fateha A.

Got mild Jjampong ($16), which was almost perfect for me. It was still a bit spicy, so I couldn't have more than several spoons of the broth. It was so red that I thought it was gonna be hella spicy, but I was so relieved to find it wasn't killer spicy. It was perfect otherwise. It comes in a huge bowl with plenty of seafood. I didn't think I'd be able to finish, esp considering I wasn't that hungry, but I did. All of the shrimp was peeled, except for the bigger one. I really wish they'd peel all of the shrimp.

Korean Black Bean Noodles & Seafood Noodles Combo
Jennifer T.

For what it is, it hit the spot for me. Or rather one half of it did. I got the 짬짜면 and I was in a hurry. Definitely demolished the black bean noodle side, but the jjampong side was a bit bland. Also way too hot temperature wise for me to scarf down so I packed it up. I still ate it later. Honestly for the price point and how fast the service was, I was satisfied, and accomplished my mission.

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!

The servers kept things moving but with very minimal interference and no extra visits; we would have liked a little more attention when we finished some of the banchan and kind of expected they would be replenished, but we certainly were fine without it. And the entrees were delicious and even with other tables almost on top of each other it never felt crowded due to partitions that I saw them remove for some larger groups needing tables "together", and I never felt part of someone else's dinner convo. Presentation was amazing and food was delicious - Soon Tofu Soup with seafood for me, which arrived bubbling like a cauldron. It came with a raw egg that you crack into the soup and let it cook to your level of doneness. Hubs got hot stone bibimbap and as we all know the crispy rice is the best part of it... it's just tough to separate it from the actual stone dish so you can eat it, especially if you wait until it cools and fuses. If I was there with more stomach space I wanted to try the galbi, and in fact there's a weekday lunch combo that could facilitate that.

Short Review- Outstanding Restaurant Week Menu. Get the Hoe Muchim, Yukhoe, Gangjeong, Galbi-Jjim,…read moreand if you want to be very full, the Pyongyang Cold Noodle. I went back to this Korean spot with a group for their $60 Summer Restaurant Week menu, which I'll abbreviate as RW from now on. I was not expecting the biggest portions as the menu is a bit pricey, but I was surprised in a good way. Compared to the regular menu, this is a fantastic deal, being both high quality and with large portions. You can see the previous review regarding the nice space, which is from a converted library. The only distinction this time was that they were much more crowded. The server was friendly, though he did rather haphazardly drop off all of the appetizers instead of giving them to the specific people who ordered them, leading to a bit of confusion. To drink, I shared a bottle of 24% Soju Dokdo, which another person had ordered at the bar prior to me arriving during happy hour. As per the other time before we got the other courses, they gave us some kimchi as well as a cold soup as an amuse bouche. The soup consisted of cucumber, tomato agar jelly, basil oil, and Korean pear. The soup is refreshing, cold, slightly herbal, and a little bit sweet, and worked perfectly to whet our appetite. The RW menu that followed consisted first of one choice each from three different options: vegetable, sea, and meat. Afterwards, there was a choice of main and a side dish, and then dessert. From the appetizers, my vegetable choice was the Lotus Root Gangjeong/연근강정, a pair of fried lotus root slices with a mild sweetness, presumably from rice syrup/물엿. The lotus root had a light fry, with a mild crunch, but it was the most basic of the dishes. Other people enjoyed the Asparagus Japchae/아스파라거스잡재 and the Acorn Jelly/도토리묵. I tried the latter, and it was refreshing and tasty with an interesting mix of textures. Compared to the other appetizers, this was also the only course without a supplement, which makes sense since it was vegetables. From the sea section, I ordered a dish I got last time, the Hoe Muchim/회무침, listed on the menu as seasonal fish, gochujang, and soybean powder, which all came with kim/seaweed for DIY handrolls. The dish is normally $24, and of course, the portion was slightly smaller, but it was still sizable. As this was the case with the other dishes, I won't mention that again. The fish in this case was raw salmon, which was buttery, and paired with the crunchy vegetables, the sweet/spicy/mildly fermented gochujang, and the nutty soybean powder. Another person enjoyed the Shrimp Pancakes/새우전, saying that there was plenty of shrimp inside, and no one ordered the $5 extra Abalone Salad/전복냉채. Finally, for meat, I went with the Yukhoe/육회, the Korean version of beef tartare with Korean pear and egg yolk, which is normally $28. The meat was tender with a mild fragrance from sesame oil and a bit of sweetness from the paired, well, pear. No one got the Spicy Fried Chicken/닭튀김, while someone else splurged and loved the $5 extra Beef Cheek Suyuk/소뽈살수육. For my main dish, as with a few others as per my recommendation, I went with the $10 extra Galbi-Jjim/갈비찜. Normally $52, this had soy-braised prime beef, Pyogo mushrooms, some potatoes, and some tteok. The short ribs were very tender, with some fat that was flavorful without being too chewy. The broth wasn't as sweet as some other places, with a delightful little bit of spiciness. This was outstanding, just like last time. Others enjoyed the Bossam/보쌈 and the Squid Stir Fry /오징어볶음, with no one getting the Tofu Mushroom Hot Pot/두부버섯전골. As a side, my choice was the Mushroom Sotbap/버섯솥밥, which is $10 extra, but shared between two people. Normally for $38, this had golden queen rice, mushrooms, foie gras, and a beef broth, and just like during normal service, they present the full pot before dividing it up. The rice had a strong umami with a bit of crunch from the scorched part, and was delicious like last time. Another person liked the Seasonal Vegetable Bibimbap/산채비빔밥, and one other had the portion of Pyongyang Cold Noodle/평양냉면, with the broth poured at the table. The portion was noticeably gigantic compared to every other dish, and the bit of broth I tried was delicious. For dessert, there were two choices. I got the Korean Melon/참외 with coconut and manchego cheese. The dish was well composed, with a granita/ice made from melon, some coconut sorbet on the bottom, and a very mild cheesy flavor. It was refreshing. A few had the Burdock/우엉 with burdock ice cream, chocolate mousse, and burdock chips. They found it mildly bitter with a bit of nuttiness, and one person liked it, and the other did not. I tried a bit, and I thought it was decent, but I preferred my dessert. This was again a very good meal. I wish I had better photos, but we all loved our time here.

The service was attentive throughout the meal. They offer a tasting menu, but we opted for a la carte so we could try a wider variety of dishes. The complimentary cold broth served to cleanse our palates was a thoughtful touch. The fried chicken wing was cooked perfectly with an incredibly crispy exterior. The uni sotbap was delicious, packed with rich umami flavors in every bite. The bossam was solid, tender pork belly served with fresh lettuce wraps. The cold noodles were refreshing, and I especially enjoyed the light, flavorful chicken broth. The galbi was tender, juicy, and well-seasoned. Overall, every dish was delicious, and I'd definitely come back if I'm ever in town.
