NYC’s Hidden 4.7-Star Korean Bistro! 🍶✨

Tucked away in lower Manhattan, this intimate pocha-style spot offers a solid soju selection—including the rare winter-brewed variety from Wangbi!—but the food still has room to grow. 🥢 🍽️ Food Highlights 🐟 Salmon Ssambap – Fresh salmon tartare to wrap in seaweed—good, not great. Rating: 🍚🍚🍚🥢 🥩 Yuk Hoe (Beef Tartare) – Minced beef with no chewiness—flavorful and smooth. Rating: 🍚🍚🍚🍚 🍖 K-BBQ Pork Ribs – Sweet-sour glazed ribs, more sauce than meat. Rating: 🍚🍚🥢 🍲 Brisket Tteokbokki – Savory braised beef over spicy rice cakes—hearty and tasty! Rating: 🍚🍚🍚🍚 🍜 Garak Guksu (Fish Noodle Soup) – Sadly bland—still a work in progress. Rating: 🍚 🍵 Matcha Tiramisu – A sweet, matcha-twisted dessert. Rating: 🍚🍚🍚 Great for creative drinks and late-night vibes, but come more for the soju than standout eats. 🥂 📍 The Nook NYC 199 2nd Ave, New York, NY 10003 #KoreanBistro #SojuSpot #NYCEats #HiddenGem #NYCFoodie #PochaVibes #LateNightEats #FoodAndDrinks
