Solid sushi place for the price! They have weekly lunch specials from Monday to Saturday. All the…read morerolls we tried weren't bad. The service is pleasant too. They seem to have a lot of tropical special sushi rolls (many with mango, chili sauce, salsa sauce, etc.), which I think is interesting. We got: - Pink Lady Roll: Good, but noticeably on the drier side, and it didn't have a lot of eel. Don't think it came with any sauce either. - Hawaii Mango Roll: Refreshing. The mango flavor overpowers any other flavor because of the mango sauce and mango slices on top. Overall, I'd return if I was in the area!

Their Kani and seaweed salads are very good and large portion sizes. Ive also had the sex on the beach, manhattan roll, yellow tail scallion, and tuna avocado- all which I enjoyed What recently blew me away was the poke bowl. This is a large portion size and also comes with soup or salad. The sauce and toppings were delicious and I can't wait to get it again!

There's a decent amount of seats, maybe like 10 in total? I'd come again!

Too hot to eat anything big so just got a snack sized portion…read more There is different sizes with different portion amounts. Snack is the smallest portion with 1 protein. There are cooked proteins too, not juat raw fish. I made my own bowl of tuna, brown rice, kimchi, mango, edamame, etc. As for sauces, I had their signature sauce. Bowl was made quick. I dined in as there were a few seats. Bowl was tasty. Tuna tasted fresh with no fishy taste. Liked how the other ingredients and sauce mixed in well.

But as far as I know, Ongi is the only establishment employing the ingredient as part of a dressing for a corporate "slop bowl."

I love coming to this healthy Korean eatery, especially since you can earn points through the…read moreRitual app, which is free and easy to use. The place is about a 5 minute walk from 50 St subway station. This is the healthiest Korean meal I can find in Midtown West Manhattan. Some food items are gluten free, dairy free and soy free. Good service from the eatery staff. The place was busy during lunch hours but good service. Just note, restrooms are for customers only. I love the comfortable and cozy atmosphere. The Grilled Salmon bowl with brown rice, Cucumber, Red Cabbage Slaw, Red Onion, Hijiki Seaweed, and scallions is delicious and healthy! On top of that, meals come in compostable fiber takeout bowls along with disposable utensils made of plastic. If you care about cutting waste, the same as I do, it makes sense to carry reusable utensils made of stainless steel. I would definitely come back and suggest you give this place a try if you are looking for a healthy Korean meal in Midtown West or Columbus Circle.

They provide a generous amount of boba which I definitely appreciate. However the boba itself was on the firmer side and not as enjoyable. The passionfruit juice was ok, but tasted more like syrup juice rather than fresh fruit. Store itself is very clean and spacious. With plenty of tables available if you choose to dine-in.

The prices were actually pretty fair for NYC, especially compared to a lot of poke places that charge crazy amounts for tiny portions. The bowls felt filling, customizable, and overall worth it. The fish tasted semi fresh, not the freshest poke I've ever had, but definitely good enough to satisfy the craving without feeling sketchy. What I liked most was that it felt dependable. Quick service, good portion sizes, and enough topping/sauce options to make the bowl enjoyable without overcomplicating things!
