We enjoyed dinner at the Food Gallery 32. We enjoyed galbi and bibim rice bowl. Service was quick and easy. Lots of choices in the food hall and it was busy in a Thursday early evening. All self service. read more

Kobeque - 3. Bibim BBQ Rice Bowl - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

The entire food court is worth checking out in busy Little Korea. I ordered the Beef Kalbi Steak Rice Bowl that comes with soup. It's big enough to share for two people. It's a little pricey for average lunch but worth checking out. It was 20 plus tax and tip. There is seating on the different levels and the atmosphere is what you would expect similar to a mall food court. read more

An excellent choice if you're in the food 32 hall! The food came quick after ordering and was full of flavor. I'm big fan of bulgogi beef and this was definitely to my liking. There was the perfect ratio of toppings to rice as well read more

a solid place in a solid korean food court. nice to see that this tray was $19.99 in manhattan. if you want good kbbq without the whole sit down, then this is a reliable spot. i wanted a different flavor of sauce but i couldn't articulate it. it needs like more savory vibes. the soup was very spicy, i enjoyed as much as i could before i couldn't but that's on me and my annoying gut. the service was quick and helpful. read more

I always love Korean BBQ and can honestly say this place was average. The service and ambiance was good for food court standards. I ordered the bulgogi bowl combo that came with a soup. The bulgogi was standard and the portion was small on the meat vs rice ratio. You also don't get the choice of soup which was upsetting because the only option that you have was the super spicy soup. Unfortunately I was unable to eat super spicy and was only left with that option. For like $16.99......., it would have been nice to have a little more bulgogi to rice ratio and have an option for none spicy soup. read more

This place was a definitely a must try for me every time I went to Food Gallery 32 in k town. It always smells good when I walk by it. It's one of the small vendors in food gallery and they serve a variety of different bbq meals. The curry bbq caught my eye as I never considered to mix bbq and curry. It was decent but definitely better curry around the area. I believe it's just what I ordered but the server was nice the entire time. I'd def recommend trying it if you have the chance. It was an interesting choice. read more

Kobeque - Bbq curry chicken - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

See all

The BBQ Curry Rice ($16.99) tastes very delicious and is very fulfilling indeed nonetheless, just not what I have expected from seeing the menu pic or by reading the food description. In fact, I find it as bit of misleading in a way. What I have originally thought: BBQ Chicken Curry Over Rice meaning the rice and chicken would be drenched in curry sauce. What I actually got: BBQ Chicken in a tray-like dish served with a decent-size bowl of curry with rice separately on the side. Umm certainly not what I've expected nor pictured in my mind but okay, I guess it will have to do. Service tends to be fast and lady seems to be friendly. You can pay with credit/debit card or cash. Food will be ready in 10-12 mins. They'll hand you a rectangular buzzer and the receipt after you've paid & placed your order. Buzzer will then vibrate & flash in red when it's time to go pick up your food. Ambiance wise is just another vendor/booth inside Food Gallery 32. Restroom is on the 3rd floor of food court. Nothing more and nothing less as you can see. The price range is considered as fairly reasonable because this is K-Town after all despite inflation times and that prices have generally gone up for anything including food nowadays. Curry tastes more like Japanese-styled which is on the sweeter and thicker side but I wouldn't have minded if it has a spicier kick to it. There're some bits of carrots and potatoes which I appreciate. However, three pieces of broccoli and some diced scallions look rather sad on top of the curried rice because they could have offered more veggies in the dish. My suggestion would be to add more variety of veggies like zucchini, snow peas, cauliflower, eggplant, onion, bell peppers and maybe even chickpeas as well. Another thing is that, I would've liked to see more rice included since I don't think that's actually an entire order of rice to begin with. Moreover, the ratio of rice vs curry isn't quite balanced out (meaning it's not split 50/50) ~ more like 50% curry + 40% rice + 10% the so-called few pieces of veggies. I did enjoy the food in the end. I might try getting other dishes next time. Lastly, I still think they should definitely fix the wording & put a more accurate pic to match what it exactly looks like on the menu. Therefore, nobody would be able to say that the outcome doesn't even look like anything in comparison to the stuff from the menu. |*******[END]*******| read more

Ate here today for lunch by myself after picking up my pair of solar eclipse glasses at B&H. I had brought the BBQ pork belly over rice and asked to add a sunny side up egg. It had tasted really good and delicious. The service there was also attentive and great. I couldn't agree more. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :) read more

Kobeque - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

Located inside Food Gallery 32, a food court in Korea town, on the first floor to the left. This is a quick, casual place for food. Everything was flavored nicely, especially the pickled side dishes, but the pork belly texture was too soft. Would've been much better crispy. The kalbi was delicious. You bus your own dishes after. There is a disposal room toward the front entrance of the court next to the stairs. read more

Kobeque - 12. BBQ Meat Lovers - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

I wish I could give this a 3.5. I'll give it a 4 because I didn't hate it. I was just underwhelmed. I paid $19 for the curry bbq pork bowl and the quality didn't match the price. While the food was decent it just felt like it was lacking. I couldn't say if it was the flavor or as I mentioned the quality. If it was a few dollars cheaper then I'd have no problems with what I got. It was decent tasting food and with a decent portion. However for $19 I expect more than decent. I don't think I would go back based on the quality of food I got even if it wasn't a bad meal. read more

*** 3.5 stars *** A bit slow but otherwise a good spot to pick up lunch. I tried the Bibimbap Rice Bowl with spicy chicken which wasn't really spicy but was otherwise flavorful. Probably not somewhere I'd go for a sit-down dinner, but does the trick for a pick-up lunch spot. read more

If there's a long queue for Kobe Bryant's signature, that's a Kobe-queue. All of the Korean eateries and stalls inside Manhattan's shiny new and amazing Food Gallery 32 are pretty excellent, and most of them are Korean - this one has Korean BBQ. It's not the best you'll ever have (unlike my Barbie), but it's a lot cheaper than most that you'll have (unlike my Barbie), especially in New York City - and I appreciate it along with all the other great stalls in this excellent food court. read more

I came here a little before closing, and they only took cash. I ordered the bibim rice bowl, and they had already run out of most of the meats. The only meat they had was pork, so I made do with that. I like the fact that they guy prepared my food right after ordering so it was nice and fresh. It came with a spicy soup, that was very very spicy. The food was just average, it was not bursting with flavor. The portion size was not big at all. For the price I paid, I expected more food. read more

I read the rave reviews about this place so decided to try it out. I settled on the bbq rice platter...and was really disappointed with what I got. Basically paid $15 for white rice, beansprout soup and corn, beansprouts and shredded carrots. It was a meager amount of bulgogi (the meat I ordered). It tasted standard and I regretted my purchase. Maybe I should've walked further to the back and ordered bulgogi over rice from there instead. read more

Kobeque - 1. BBQ Rice Platter - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

I'd first learned of Kobeque when I stumbled across their Yelp page and saw that they have a Korean BBQ burrito (hello, delicious!) This tiny food stall is located inside Food Gallery 32, a food court in K-Town with primarily Korean food options. We came on a Thursday afternoon for lunch, when the place was not terribly busy. We had the BBQ wrap with bulgogi ($11.99) and the eel BBQ rice bowl ($14.99). The wrap comes with a side of chips and mild salsa, and the bowl comes with some pickled radish, cucumber kimchi, and some kind of broth with bean mung sprouts. Note that Kobeque does not sell any drinks, but you can always visit another stall that does while you wait for your food to be prepared. The food so very delicious, especially for a fast food stall! Both the bowl and the wrap were PACKED with flavor and had the Korean signature balance of sweet and savory. Yum, yum, oh my god yum. My only complaint with regard to the food is that the wrap had a bit too much liquid in it that dripped all over the place while we were scarfing it down. Service is a little slow, but not terrible for the lunch rush. Seating is limited on the 1st floor (where Kobeque is located), but you can take your food upstairs where there is more space. read more

First time going to Food Gallery 32. We accidentally came across while walking in Koreatown and we ain't even mad coming cross this amazing food court. We didn't know what to get so over whelmed. But we saw Korean and Barbecue words put together so we were sold. This BBQ spicy pork at Kobeque! And it is so tasty the pork is nice and tender with that kick of spice, helping us not get sick from that snow. Just all around wonderful dish. You gotta try! We have to come back to Food Gallery 32 just to try Kobeque and try their Bulgogi Bibimbap this time. Best choice of the day. Ohhh if you haven't have Bulgogi beef before you are missing out. It is one of our favorite Korean dish! Nice and flavorful Bulgogi beef on top of rice and an egg on the side, mmmm ! read more

This bowl hit the spot. This is a takeaway bbq place in the food gallery in ktown. They have some creative dishes too like bulgogi nachos that I got to try one day!

Kobeque - 3. Bibim BBQ Rice Bowl - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

Order and pay first. You'll get a buzzer to notify you when the food is ready. Lots of rice topped with a runny egg and some pieces of bulgogi. The sauce options are spicy mayo or regular mayo. Spicy soup on the side that has small chili flake. Honestly, it tastes pretty basic and there are plenty of other food options nearby. I'd only try this place if you have to eat in the food court. read more

Kobeque - BBQ plate - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

The food is decent, but the service is slow. They need more than 2 people working the station. It took them 5 minutes to even notice me when there was no one in front of me. Then it was 20 minutes to get the food made. Finally, for the price, it doesn't make it worth going back. read more

CATFISH LEVEL: 4/5: Looks good, tastes okay, finished but wouldn't get again I ordered the steak bowl with spicy sauce. The seasoning had nice flavor, but the beef wasn't seasoned thoroughly and got bland pretty quickly. The beef was also pretty tough, it took a really long time to chew...the rice was super plain, and with just the beef and sauce it wasn't much to add flavor. If the beef was more seasoned or if there were some veggies along with the rice this could have been a lot better.  Although it was a large portion of steak, I would have preferred better quality meat and fewer pieces, as well as some vegetables or more sauce to add more flavor. It was a bit expensive and not worth the price at all. read more

Tonight, I ordered the curry rice and spicy pork combo. While I thoroughly enjoyed the spicy pork, the curry rice was lukewarm and my rice was hard and tasted only semi-cooked. read more

I love their Bulgoki (beef) Bibim Rice Bowl! It's packed full of flavor and doesn't fall short from what you would expect at a Korean restaurant in Ktown. I highly recommend if you're pressed for time or just looking for something warm to eat without the 30-45 mins. wait. read more

I absolutely love the spicy noodles here ($10-11). Depending on how hungry you are, you could get them by itself or with the spicy pork or beef ($14-$15). You get a buzzer and when it rings, you get the food. It's all pretty quick. I mean it's a cafeteria style place so obviously the ambiance is casual. With so many options at this food hall, it can be hard to decide but I do think the spicy flavor of the noodle paired with the thick udon texture really make them stand out. read more

Kobeque - Spicy noodles (LOVE them) with beef - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

Great little stand in the food court in K-Town. I got the spicy pork plate which came with white rice, a salad, and you can pick a few side dishes to go with your meat. The spicy pork had a good amount of lean/fat meat ratio that was great mixed with the sides I got on top of my meat and the rice. Food was very flavorful and not at all too spicy. The only downside is that Kobeque has a $12 minimum for credit card and considering most items are $9.99-$10.99, it's a bit frustrating since you either have to pay for a friend, or order an extra just to make the minimum since the drinks are sold in the food court separately. read more

What is there to say about fast food Korean style. I am not enough of a Korean food follower to judge. However, it was quick and inexpensive. It was also very crowded, so there are many satisfied customers. read more

Quick recap: the flavor is there and is reasonably priced. Nothing fancy, just simple korean in a food hall. Quick service. If you can find a spot to sit in this food hall, give this place a go if you like korean bbq. The meat overall was tender but more importantly was full of taste. The side soup is just ok but my friend liked it. This is a safe spot to go to for good food and quick service. The place looks clean but the trick is to find a spot to sit down as this food hall stays busy. And for good reason. read more

4/5 because It's an American style "eat to survive" kind of place, the food isn't really good - but deserves more than a 3/5 because it's not trying to be This is a very "quick lunch" kind of spot and it does it's job well enough One star is missing because the chicken was hard to eat, not sure if it was over cooked or dry from being left out too long It's a small kitchen but the staff and service is really good and they have a pretty decent sized menu to choose from The food arrived pretty quickly The place is clean Good sized seating area that is shared with neighboring food vendors, it gets crowded so do come here early or late The service is friendly The quality that you get is below average compared to others, even when factoring the smaller kitchen and staff - But again, you're expecting this so you can't be shocked by it Wouldn't come back here I did finish the plate, it was good enough, but not enough for me to skip on trying a new spot next time Wouldn't recommend this place, but also they might've had a bad morning so I can see other people liking it read more

Number of visits: 3 Kobeque is the spot to go to when you want some super quick Korean BBQ, but super quick does not mean good. There are days that I am craving KBBQ for lunch so I will swing by Food Gallery to snag some. I usually go to another spot for a plate of Galbi, but I liked the fact that they offered a bimbimbap. First time I got the steak bowl, then I got the spicy pork bowl and then the bulgolgi bowl which all ranges (after tax) from $15-20. Now for $15-20, I should be getting a really good lunch, especially in a food court. They try to make up for it by pairing your food with soup, but it just doesn't feel right. There's a lot of rice in the bowl, a good amount of meat I suppose, but just a few vegetables which just doesn't justify a good bimbimbap. I think I will have to find another lunch location for some KBBQ. read more

Given the many options in the Koreatown food market, this is a fairly safe one. They have lots of options like noodles and tofu, and my mom and I shared the Korean BBQ bulgogi wrap on our way to the airport. It was yummy, the bulgogi cooked well. I expected the portion to be larger though. Service was very good--we didn't meet the credit card minimum but the cashier let us get away with it. That's annoying--one meal may need to be paid with in cash. read more

I've only gone to the Food Gallery for Spot upstairs but decided to try some of the other restaurants in here. When I went, there wasn't a line and it wasn't that busy that I was able to find a table for me and my fam nearby. We were craving kbbq but didn't want to drop $$$ at a restaurant so we were happy to get the next best thing in a rice bowl. Me and my sister both got the BBQ rice bowl with bulgogi. I personally thought that it came with a ton of bulgogi that was marinated well. Portion size was decent. Didn't care much for the soup that it came with though. Yeah, it was pricey at $15, but I was satisfied with my meal and maybe I just happened to catch them on a good day lol read more

Today was my first foray into Food Gallery 32. Essentially, it's a large 3 floor Korean specialty food court. The interior has a industrial and frantic feel to it. It was a bit chaotic but my friends and I got there around 3:30p on a Saturday. It was to be expected. For someone like me, who had never been there before, the hustle and bustle is intimidating. Had I been alone, I would have left. Luckily, one of my friends knew her way around and helped me and my other friends navigate. She really wanted us to tried the Steak Rice Bowl from Kobeque. She absolutely raved about it! We went with her suggestion and got it. The Steak Rice Bowl was a simple dish. Besides from the aforementioned ingredients, it also came with an over hard egg, sesame seeds, and seaweed strips. On that side, it came with clear broth with hot oil and pickled sliced radish with jalapeños and another unidentified vegetable on the side. Don't get me wrong, the bowl was good. I had two problems with it. First, it wasn't spicy at all. I dumped my entire broth in the bowl. No dice. I also dumped my friend's entire broth in my bowl as well. Nope. It was Bland City. It's a shame because everything was cooked really well, it's just the spice would have given it the POW it desperately needed. The second problem is not really a problem, per se, as it is me being a total cheapskate: that bowl was not worth $15 dollars plus tax. It's barely worth $10 plus tax. I love my friend but she was so wrong. All in all, Kobeque didn't really impress me that much. If I ever do venture over there again, I will probably try a different place. read more

Ordered the tofu rice bowl and it was the best tofu I've had in my life hands down!! The only thing I didn't like is that the soup they give you contains beef and as a vegetarian I couldn't eat it while I watched all my friends have it. Could be more vegetarian friendly with the soup!! Additionally, they also had run out of almost half the plates they put in their menu read more

Whenever I have a class in the area, I come here for lunch. It's located in Food Gallery 32 (food court type of setting), which is very convenient when I need something "quick" to-go. In reality, you do have to wait about 10-15 minutes for your food. I usually order the BBQ Rice Bowl with Bulgogi. The meal comes with meat and rice in one container and soup and 3 sides (of your choice) in separate containers. I like how it's always cooked right then and there so the food is always warm. The meat's usually cooked consistently, but a couple times, it seems less marinated. Nothing beats sitting at an actual Korean BBQ restaurant, but it's a pretty decent alternative. I usually have no problem finding a place to sit during lunch, but the times I've come in with friends for dinner, it's a bit more challenging. read more

If you want a quick lunch between work, this is not the place to go This is from my experience today. I went up to try to place my order and the guy by cashier brushes me off, says one second, then proceeds to chat with his friend and go on his phone. It's a different story if there were others waiting but I was the only person standing there, and kept me waiting without explanation. This is during lunch time-- not everyone has time to wait around-- some people have to go back to work right after. So no thank you, it would've been my first time, but with this service, knowing that Noona is right across from them, with their delicious food and friendly service, i don't have to think twice. So thanks, but no thanks. read more
