We went there based on a friend's recommendation and it is not dissapointing. The service could have been better The portion is generous and tasted so good! My favourite was the seafood pancake Will come back for sure if we are in Ny

This place was so good. Went at around 1am for a late night food fix. The atmosphere is nice, upbeat music and bright inside, so if you are tired, you will likely wake right up. The food had great flavor. This place is opened 24 hours also which is pretty cool.

I'd planned to look and compare restaurants, but when their friendly host at the door asked if I wanted to come in for Korean food it just felt right. I timed it just right, and was seated without a wait. I'm so glad I did. The menu was really extensive. I ordered fried dumplings and octupus with noodles. The octopus... More

Wonderful thing about NYC is that there are so many places to go to feel like you are not in NYC (or even not in US or not in N America or not on Terra but getting back to review...). You may want to come off hours since else will wait 30 min or so out in the cold. You... More

My wife and I decided that we were in the mood for some Korean food after enjoying a Broadway play on a Saturday night recently. We walked over to Korea Town and perused the shops on 32nd Street. This place looked the liveliest and most welcoming, not pretentious, but busy and warm. Well, we picked the right spot for our... More

Kunjip Restaurant is located on 32nd Street in NYC. It has a very good menu and is obviously well liked by Korean food fans. We had the bibimbob and it was excellent. The restaurant was about half full at 11:00 at night and I am sure even more so during the day and early evening. Fortunately, we were able to... More

If you want authentic, spicy Korean food, served quickly and efficiently, try Kunjip. We first went when our son return from teaching in South Korea. He introduced us to the cuisine. It's great, and very reasonable.

1. If you not Korean, you can choose your meals based on good pictures 2. Service is typical Korean - they do what they need to do - serve food quickly without unnecessary smiles and stupid questions 3. Portions are big and meals include appetizers

I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who want to have an authentic Korean food. Their spicy tofu soup is the best. Very reasonable price. All meal served with many side dishes. Serbia was not superb but couldn't complaint.
