Truly exceptional.

Service is unbeatable.  The waiter station is centered in the middle of all the tables which I think is a great idea.  There wasn't a second they didn't have their finger on the pulse of our experience.  There was a table sat next to us when I feel like there was enough open spaces that they could've left a little bit more of a buffer space, but it was totally fine anyway, we were just slightly worried about distracting them from their meals.

The restaurant was very clean.  The bathrooms are very nice.  It was a bit of a walk to get to from the subway, so if you are coming with women who might be wearing heels I think I'd advise taking a car.

The food was definitely with the best I've ever had.  It started very well with a playful and delicious interpretation of banchan,  but we weren't extremely impressed with the signature octopus.  I mean that literally, it was excellent, but we weren't extremely impressed.  The standout dishes were definitely the sea urchin bibimbap, which I definitely recommend supplementing to and the yellowtail kimbap which I'll admit we always love yellowtail, but it was really next level.  Great presentation on everything.  Excellent dishes.  The deserts were great too.  Drinks and wine pairings were excellent.

It is priced around what you might expect for two Michelin stars, but I suspect that we actually enjoyed this dinner at a rate that is lower than it will be in the future.  Will not be surprised to see them get a third star in the future.

Perfect.

Made a very last minute bar reservation over the phone yesterday for my fiance's birthday dinner. I love how their bar menu is exactly the same as their dining table menu except it's a la carte (which is great for us bc I could never finish a whole set). We got one of everything on the menu and they were all amazing!! My personal favorite was the uni bibimbop and the bon chan, but honestly everything on the menu was so delicious I wish the portions were bigger bc I wanted more after I finished that octopus leg 😩

Overall they do live up to my expectations for a two Michelin star restaurant! Only thing I would complain about is that I noticed the dining tables were very close to each other and not very spacious. The bar area was great tho!

One of the best meals I’ve had in NYC, everything on the tasting menu was so delicate yet flavorful. Really enjoyed the striped jack, yellowtail kimbap, and the galbi. The bonchon to start was also amazing.

Amazing food presentation. I started with five different dishes. I loved every bite, but other dishes were just so-so for me. The dining room is clean and modern. However, I deducted 1 star because I finished my glass of wine, and no one asked me for another. They simply served the food and left. I had to find someone to order. and my 2nd glass too. So I decided to finish for a drink.  But overall was very good for my birthday dinner.
