Seoul Garden (Korean, Koreatown)
Location:
34 W. 32nd St., between 5th and 6th Aves. south side of street, second floor.
across the street from Kum Gang San
Cuisine:
Korean.
Fave Dishes:
Korean Barbecue ($12-30 per plate, generally serves at least 2-3 peeps)
-I highly recommend the standards: kalbi, bulgogi, pork, chicken. If I'm lazy (and I usually am), I ask them to cook it in the kitchen. Unless you want to interact and cook your food.
Pajun (Appetizer, Pancake). I recommend either the kimchee pajun or the seafood one.
Sun doo bu chige (Soup, with tofu). I recommend the spicy one, and with seafood.
I could go on, but I'll stop there.
Ambiance:
It's a Korean barbecue place, and I can't find any "normal" reviews of this restaurant. There are other great restaurants in K-Town (Kum Gang San and Woorijip (the latter I love more than the former) which come to mind, but Seoul Garden (aka the Tofu Place) is really really really good. There are lots of Asians, particularly Koreans, there, which bodes well. They overload you with pan chan, which is also great. But the tofu is particularly excellent, and you can always judge a Korean restaurant by their kimchee. It's good. I go there all the time (as well as to Woorijip) with my two Korean roomates. Service is excellent.
Detractors:
You may have to wait a while for a table sometimes....and I wasn't too happy with the standard chap chae (noodle dish) that they prepared.
