Overall this place was pretty good for kbbq. however, some of their meats are quite under seasoned. i would say the service was great. the guy that served us cooked for us and was very considerate to split our big dishes into multiple bowls so our gathering could all try. he even stood on a stool to help us take a picture with a good angle. gave us complementary japchae and orange slices which was all tasty and flavorful. overall would maybe come back if i have another gathering as food and service was better than some of the other places here.
Our experience at this restaurant was decent --- the service could definitely be improved, but other than that, the food tasted great and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. We had stumbled upon this restaurant while walking around Koreatown in search of a place for lunch. When we walked in, we weren't greeted by the friendliest person at the desk, but rather someone who seemed as confused as we were since we thought we were walking into a different restaurant. When we eventually decided to stay, we were seated and looked at the menu. When my friend had an inquiry about the different fish dishes on the menu, the waitress was extremely unhelpful. She basically reiterated exactly what was written on the menu, as if we didn't care to read it all before asking for help. The useless dialogue between them lasted about 2 minutes, to which my friend came to a decision practically on her own. Other than this interaction, another aspect of the service that I felt was lacking was the speed to give us the check. At the end, we were left hanging and we felt confused as to whether they would be back with a card reader or not. When I decided to pay cash, I was standing around for 5 minutes trying to find someone who was available to take my money. I understand that they were probably busy at that time, however, they should prioritize getting people out of the restaurant if they want a steady flow of customers. Onto the food, we chose not to do the BBQ, but rather to order our own dishes. I ordered the minced meat bibimbap, which was tasty - no complaints. I also enjoyed the variety of side dishes presented to us, I believe this is the best selection of sides out of any Korean place I've dined at. Moreover, my friend ordered the grilled fish combo, which was hefty! I really enjoyed the flavour and tenderness of the fish. Ultimately, the food at this restaurant was delicious but the service was lacking. I can see why some people would really enjoy dining here, as the portions are decent and the prices aren't too steep.
Great dinner experience at New Monjo. We ordered the Korean prime rib BBQ for two, which was flavorful, tender, and fun to cook at the table. We also had the bibimbap, which was fresh and delicious. The set menu was a great experience overall, the service was attentive, and the location was perfect — an easy walking distance from our hotel in the Koreatown area. Definitely a solid spot for Korean BBQ while visiting NYC.
It is a whole experience! One of the busiest Korean barbecue places in K town. Service is good and fast! You get to try a whole bunch of things and it is quite exciting. The place is packed in the evening so definitely make a reservation. We got Prime Ribeye for 4 and it was great! Glass noodles dish was also excellent, all of us thought it was really tasty. You get an egg dish and your choice of soup with it, and of course a lot of small appetizers. Yum!
Look, K-Town is overwhelming. You walk down 32nd Street and there are a hundred people trying to shove menus in your face, tourists everywhere, and a line out the door for every single spot. It’s easy to just settle for whatever looks decent, but trust me on this: do not settle. Walk straight to Wonjo. I’ve been coming here for a while, and the reason is simple: Charcoal. Most places in the city have switched to gas grills because it’s easier/cheaper/whatever, but Wonjo still uses real charcoal, and you can taste the difference immediately. It’s not even a subtle thing. The meat gets this incredible, smoky char that you just cannot replicate on a gas grill. When you walk in and that smell hits you—that mix of smoke, garlic, and sizzling fat—you know you’re about to have a serious meal. We went all in and ordered the Galbi (Short Ribs), and honestly, it’s arguably the best bite of beef you can get in Midtown. The marbling was crazy, and because of that charcoal heat, the outside gets these perfect crispy, caramelized edges while the inside just melts. You don’t even really need the dipping sauces, but obviously, you’re going to use them because they’re delicious. We also did the Pork Belly, which was cut thick and grilled until the fat was rendered perfectly—crunchy, chewy, salty perfection. And we need to talk about the Banchan (the side dishes). A lot of places treat these as an afterthought, giving you like three tiny sad bowls of kimchi. Wonjo loads the table up. The kimchi is actually spicy and fermented right (not that fresh, watery stuff), the fish cakes are addictive, and the staff is super quick with the refills. You never have to awkwardly wave someone down to get more radish; they’re on it. To balance out all the meat, we got the Japchae (glass noodles) and the Soondubu (Spicy Soft Tofu Stew). The stew came out bubbling violently hot, packed with seafood and tofu that was smooth as silk. It’s the ultimate comfort food, especially if it’s cold outside or if you’ve had a few drinks. The vibe is exactly what you want K-BBQ to be: loud, energetic, a little smoky, and fast. The service is efficient—they don’t hover, but they get things done. Whether it’s 7 PM or 2 AM, this place delivers every single time. It’s an NYC institution for a reason.
