    The cold noodles were tasty. However, the cashier couldn't figure out how to turn on the cash register for 15 minutes after opening. The service was okay. This is in a food court so there's no real ambiance to speak of.

    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.

    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).

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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 menu was a joy to read and it was soon obvious that we weren't going to go wrong with anything we ordered! The Han dumplings are *chefs kiss* y'all need to order them for sure. For my main course I went with the LA galbi. I had a hard time eating the steak with my chopsticks so I ended up using my hands, (our waiter said that was normal, but he may have just been nice) because the flavor was so good I didn't want to leave any meat uneaten. Seriously some of the best flavors of my life!!! Though I'm still learning how to eat green things I bet the salad was amazing too!! The restaurants vibe was so much fun, we feel very grateful to have been able to eat at Her Name is Han and will recommend it to anyone who asks. 100/10 would recommend :)

Walked in, they flipped the cup and filled our water cups and then refilled our water after filling our cups. Very thoughtful. They also brought extra napkins after the dishes started coming out. Sides Zucchini taste like Chinese jellyfish . Pretty tasty The kimchi wasn't too strong in flavor but it was a pretty good flavor Fishcake tastes like aji ichiban. Sweet. Broccoli decent. Roasted garlic flavor Bossam was decent. Could be a bit more tender but has plenty of flavor. Wish it had bigger pieces of veggie and more. Can't even wrap the meat Spicy raw marinated crab Felt like it was hard to find the meat with all the sauce The sauce was very enjoyable , perfect amount of flavor, spice and sweetness Crabs did feel very fresh and sweet though Kimchi pancake was pretty decent in flavor and came with an egg on it but no sauce. It was lacking a bit of umph which I believe could've been achieved with a sweet and salty sauce/dip Seafood stew felt very light in a good way even with its spice. The flavor is good and you can taste the freshness of the ingredients I wish the egg which was in the stew was a bit more runny in the stew. I added the egg from the kimchi pancake into the stew and it vastly improved the dish. Portion size of the pancake and bossam felt pretty small though Corn bingsu Pretty decent. It's about a 1 person serving or 2 if everyone is pretty full The also layered it so that it wasn't only flavoring on the top. Even the bingsu ice part was sweet. The corn flakes were very crispy and the corn cream was good almost milky like white chocolate . Very refreshing after the meal The food was decent overall but did not really feel justified for it's price. The price felt very high for what I felt it was worth.

We ordered their large beef package which was more than enough for four people. We even had some leftovers! The meat was so tender and practically melted in your mouth.

The whole space felt luxurious and upscale which made the experience feel extra special. Another thing I really appreciated was that I didn't leave the restaurant smelling like Korean BBQ!

We got the large set for 4 and there was more than enough food for everyone.

They kept bringing out refills of the side dishes including steamed egg without us having to ask, which I always appreciate. We made a reservation, which I'd recommend especially on a weekend, and got seated right away with no wait. The set also came with vanilla ice cream at the end. Another nice bonus is that if you pay in cash (there's an ATM inside), you get about 10% off. If you don't mind spending a little more for really good quality and service, I'd definitely recommend this place!
