SEOUL SALON NYC

“Awesome food and fun, lively environment. The portions are pretty sizable and everything was mouthwateringly delicious! Gejang (raw crab) was flavorful and didn't have any off flavors. Rose tteopoki was creamy and yummy. Jokbal was solid. The spicy octopous with creamy rissoto was kind of like the rose tteopoki. Spicy flavors alternated with cream/dairy. The banana milk bingsoo also tasted just like banana milk which was fun”

“My friends and I have needed a spot for girls night and scored a reservation for Seoul Salon. This place was absolutely packed for a Thursday night, so definitely grab a reservation before you go. We were seated in a smaller room allowing for a more intimate dining experience. We ordered their limited time yellowtail platter, grilled tteokgalbi, rose tteokbokki with gimmari, Seoul salon pasta, and jokbal platter. The yellowtail platter came with a seasonal porridge, cuttlefish, whelk salad, sauces, aged kimchi, and gim. While it's recommended for 2, it easily fed the three of us. Their rose tteokbokki was really flavorful but we enjoyed it even more after it had cooled down and the flavors seeped in more. Their seoul salon pasta was the perfect amount of umami and one of our favorite bites of the night! The jokbal platter was MASSIVE. It was cooked and seasoned to perfection. Needless to say, this is the place to go for good food and drinks with friends! We will be back!

“Seoul Salon has a modern twist on classic Korean dishes, infusing them with fresh culinary twists. The soy scallop with gim rice was fresh, light, and scallops were sweet and creamy in texture. The rose tteokbokki was very creamy and almost felt like a fusion between Italian flavors and Korean textures. The basil was herby, flavorful, and stracciatella cheese slightly acidic, creamy, and infused the dish with a lightness and break in richness of the rose sauce. The tteok texture was soft, but still al dente to create a great bite. Lastly the spicy octopus with risotto was another blend of Italian & Korean flair, introducing soft, creamy Arborio rice with the crunchy, spicy, and flavor-packed octopus. Seoul salon's menu is unique and curated to be filled with robust flavor & great textures. My only callout is the space is narrow so it can be difficult to have a conversation as it feels like tables are cramped/on top of each other.”
