High-Quality Korean Food in Union Square 🌟

📍 BARN JOO I just discovered this Korean restaurant, and I’m kicking myself for not visiting sooner! It’s so close to my school, and the value here is incredible. 😍 🏙️ The quality and portion sizes are way above what you’d expect for the price. I ordered the lunch set ($29), which included options like army stew, pork rib soup, sashimi rice, and sea urchin rice (seafood options have a small upcharge, but it’s definitely worth it). 🌸 I went with the sashimi rice, and the fish was incredibly fresh with perfect seasoning! The combination of caviar, crunchy vegetables, and tender sashimi was amazing. 🌊 In addition to the main dish, the set also included a salad, a big potato pancake, fried shrimp tempura, and a small portion of sushi. Everything you see in the photo, except for the drink, is part of this lunch set for just over $30! It’s called a single serving, but the portions are really generous. You can even take home the side dishes for another meal later. 😋 🎢 The restaurant itself is beautiful. The entrance is small, but the high ceilings make the space feel really open. It feels like a hidden gem. I went at 3 PM, and there were no crowds or lines, and the service was attentive. The staff even recommended their best dishes and drinks. 🫰🏻 🍃Address: 35 Union Square W, New York, NY 10003 #StudentExploration #KoreanFood #NYU 🌇
