Okay

Overall was find... The original spot in the city is slightly better. Tuna Sandwich was fun though.

Corn Ribs
Ally L.

LOVE Konban, was excited to try Konya! Was sadly disappointed :( We had a reservation for 7 and were immediately told they'd need the table back by 8:30. No problem. Upon being seated the hostess went to another table and told them they'd had 30 min left, when it was clear they didn't get their full meal yet. We experienced the same, she came over and told us we had 30 min left. Food service was a little slow overall and the last dishes didn't come out till we had 15 min left. Food wise: EHH WOULD SKIP: Jajang Prawns Gambas, def mini shrimp vibes, heavy on the gambas, just adding marketing buzz words with the prawns. No jajang flavor, it was unfortunately just giving salty, oily tar. We each had a bite and couldn't finish the rest. Galbi Gyoza, LOTS of flavor but not necessarily in a good way, there's a lot going on from the seasoning in the actual meat to the strong sauce flavor. The crunch on top was nice ~ maybe for some but overall flavor was just not it for us. GOOD: Corn ribs were basic but good, love these at konban, the lime and cheese dust pairs nicely. Mushroom risotto was nice, good smokey flavor on the mushrooms, risotto was mush, nice to call it a risotto, it was more like a paste but the mushrooms really save the dish. STAR OF THE SHOW FOR US. Pork tenderloin katsu was very tender and had a good crust. Basic, would be sad if they messed this up. Overall, fine. Would much rather head back to Konban and let Konya figure out the menu a bit more.

Corn Ribs.

Konya is the newest sister restaurant to the popular Konban, which is reflected from the menu to the aesthetics of the space. It's a great way for the same dishes when in the Williamsburg area. To start off, we got a shooter of the Hojicha Yuzu Spirit and a mini tomato and cream cheese starter, which was refreshing. For our main dishes, we ordered a number of items between the two of us. Since they're on the smaller portions, it was not bad trying a number of items. The ones I had before were the Corn Ribs ($15) and Mazemen ($21), which were just as I remembered. We also ordered the Scallion Chicken ($19) and Tsukune ($14), which were solid. I wish there was more of the tsukune but less of the scallion chicken. All items were good, but only thing that I'd really come back for is the corn ribs. The seasoning on those are fingerlickin' good! Even though we were pretty full, we couldn't help but also get the Ube Tiramisu ($14). I like the idea and flavor was there, but something felt missing. Overall, Konya is so similar to Konban that I wouldn't go out of my way if you've already tried one or the other. Otherwise, beautiful restaurant with refined Japanese-Korean dishes.

So excited to try Konya, the sister restaurant to Konban! What we got: Corn Ribs (5/5): Absolutely amazing as always! Pleasantly surprised that the portion size felt slightly larger here than at Konban Kampachi Crudo (5/5): Loved this dish! Super fresh fish with a perfectly balanced, tangy sauce. Butter Scallop (4.5/5): Reordered this without realizing it, but actually enjoyed the flavor and texture at Konya more! Gomtang Ramyun (4.25/5): Very comforting and enjoyable, though the broth was on the sweeter side. Ube Tiramisu (4/5): Delicious for a tiramisu, though it gets quite sweet after a few bites with heavy espresso Toowoomba Tteokbokki (3/5): My least favorite dish. The sauce didn't quite mesh well with the pickled onions for me.

A very cute Korean Japanese fusion place that's perfect for small families or date nights. Food and service are on point and it's by the water so you can always top off your night with a romantic stroll in the park. The dishes worth mentioning: the tartare, the corn ribs and the gomtang ramyun. I also loved the yuzu sparkler if you like a non-alcoholic drink with your meal!

Ravioli
Eunice C.

Generally enjoyed Konya and the spacious and very sunny back patio. The lunch/snack we had was decent though this is on the higher end in terms of price. We ordered from the main menu and got the carrot bibimpap, pork loin katsu, and the tobiko clam ravioli. The plate portions left us wanting more! We rounded the afternoon snack with the ube tiramisu, which takes the cake - best way to end the meal.

Konya is the sister restaurant of Konban in the city and knowing this, we were confident that their pork katsus were going to be perfectly cooked and out of this world. They were in fact, legit! We tried multiple items off their menu and every bite was better than the last. I have to highly recommend their katsu sando and mazemen. I am a huge fan of their thick udon noodles and all the flavors married so well. I am already planning what to try the next time I return.

risotto
Paulina L.

Great place for Japanese/Korean food but with a twist! Shared 5 dishes among three people and also tried two desserts. Would say it was the perfect amount of food. Started off with the shrimp yuzu salad, which was refreshing for spring. We also had the spicy tuna sandwich which comes with a spicy mayo that was good. It is essentially like a onigiri but in a rice sandwich form. We got the tenderloin katsu, which is good and just like the one you would get at konban, their sidter restaurant. The yaki chicken was very juicy and cooked to the perfect texture with some acidic vegetables. The risotto was a nice balance of cheesy with mushrooms and rounded everything out. For dessert, the ube tiramisu is good but did feel a bit too sweet the more you ate it, would definitely be a dessert to share. I did appreciate the fried sweet potato chip on top. The black sesame honey bread was the perfect sweetness and well done with the crunchy toast that would soften up with the ice cream. Service was great and fast. Especially loved the amuse bouche at the beginning with the hojicha yuzu cider and the tomato and cheese. Ambiance was great, very cute light wood elements that felt cozy. Perfect for a date night or dinner with friends.

Clam ravioli
Maria J.

This place was OK - it's a spot I'd never put forth but if someone wanted to go, I wouldn't say no I wouldn't say it's BAD but it's not great either Here's what we got Galbi Mandu: 4/5 this and the bibimbap was the best two items of the bunch - flavorful and came with a gyoza lattice Carrot bibimbap: 4.5/5 this was surprisingly really flavorful esp with the gochujang - the only thing is, the menu said it comes with different carrot varieties but I didn't see anything Jjajjang shrimp: 2/5 this was really disappointing, esp bc I was most excited about this dish but it was an oily mess with no jjajjang flavor Clam ravioli: 3/5 ordered this other ppl had mentioned it was great but it was mediocre at best. None of the clams were inside the pasta and it was seriously whatever Sushi set: 4/5 came with 8(?) different fishes and was good sushi but nothing to write home about The restaurant itself is pretty small but cute and service was fine. I think if I did come back, I'd try their fried items - we just werent feeling fried that day.

Pork katsu
Natasha H.

Saw this on my Instagram and decided to check them out my anniversary. So glad we did the atmosphere was cozy/modern. Great for date night or to catch up with friends. Waitstaff was very attentive. Currently the place is Byob, while they wait to get their liquor license. Now for the food. We had the spicy tuna sandwich which was one of our favorites. It was fresh and flavorful. The Volcano Roll was a deconstructed roll with fried shrimp, avocado and cucumber. Loved the freshness and crunch, but could've done without some of the extra seeds and crisps. The Gomtang Ramyun Comfort had a bold beef flavor, the beef was nice and tender the dish was even better with the sauce added. Pork Katsu was Moist, crispy and delicious. It did have a citrus flavor which I wasn't expecting and would have enjoyed more without that seasoning. For dessert we got the Snow White. Beautiful presentation so refreshing. DO NOT SKIP! It's an Apple-shaped shaved ice with little bites of apple hidden inside. Was truly the perfect ending to a great meal.

Kampachi crudo
Lucy C.

Sister restaurant to Konban. The place has a front dining arena and a back dining area with a lot of natural light like an indoor garden. Good place for large parties too. We got a variety of dishes to share between 5 people. Kampachi crudo - MUST GET! Love the different texture and refreshing flavor Corn rib - classic, what they're known for here and at Konban sister restaurant Ube tiramisu - don't skip out on this dessert Not the biggest fan of their noodle dishes/ravioli. Overall would go back again

Kampachi crudo
Amy J.

Sister restaurant to Konban, I was super excited to try Konya. We made a reservation for Saturday during lunch and thankfully they had plenty of reservations available. The interior is extremely cute. It has a warm, cozy feel with soft lighting, natural wood tones, and a lot of little decorative details that make the space feel thoughtfully put together. I really loved the ambience. We ordered a few dishes since the portions were on the smaller side: the corn ribs, pork loin katsu, chicken sandwich, galbi mandu and kampachi crudo. The kampachi crudo was slightly fishy, although still enjoyable overall. I wasn't too impressed with the corn ribs, I wish they were juicier and sweeter and was a bit disappointed that they weren't considering the price point. The chicken sandwich was probably my least favorite. It wasn't seasoned as well as I would have liked, I found it a little overwhelming. Would not recommend. The pork loin katsu was good though I wish the cut had a higher fat ratio, but I really liked how delicate and flaky the crust was. The pork itself was tender and juicy, and the contrast between the crisp crust and the soft meat was really well done. The galbi mandu was actually really delicious i really liked the sauce it came with, the meat was flavorful and i loved the contrast of the fried crisp on top. Service was fine but not particularly notable. I was expecting more attentive service, but there was nothing wrong with what was provided. Overall, I thought ambience was really cute and while the food was decent, I did feel like something was missing. Definitely think I prefer the sister restaurant Konban.

Janice C.

Found out this new Japanese and Korean fusion restaurant and we can't wait to try. Food is delicious and service is great. The decor is simple and clean. However we saw other tables have welcome drink and snack but we don't. I thought we are not very welcome. -_- We asked them and we had it at the end of the meals. Kind of disappointed with this. Otherwise all is good.

The space is usually quite busy, but still feels serene. The cocktails are very good, though they lean heavy to gin, vodka, and whiskey as it is japanese - you will miss out on tequila and mezcal at this spot. The Katsu is good, but I don't really like katsu, so i'm not going to try to sell that. The uni toro dish however is just out of this world and exactly what I want to eat every day! This stuff is a dream come true. The corn ribs are the best preparation of corn outside of very cheesy esquites that I've ever had, and the mazeman is some really god noodles. Other dishes are good, but I would say the Mazeman, uni toro, and corn ribs are the musts for me.

We didn't have to yell at each other to converse, and had no problem hearing each other with nostalgic 70's hits blaring at an inoffensive level through speakers. Our yakitori was well marinated which had me thrilled. I hate an unflavored meat stick if anything. Also, the meats and seafood were just well grilled. Not too well done and not undercooked.

They also provide high chairs and cutlery for children. It's rare to find a place in New York that serves *motsu* . We ordered a portion for two, which was quite generous and absolutely delicious. You can add spicy or garlic-based dipping sauces, which change the flavor profile and make it even better. I recommend finishing your *motsu-nabe* with ramen.

Plus, the restrooms are kept very clean‼ I imagine the other dishes on the menu are just as good.This is definitely a spot I'll want to visit again and again. ・ *motsu-nabe* for two

Best Udon restaurant in New York…read more Raku's noodles are nice and springy nothing like what you can buy and their quality of noodle in general is off the charts. I've gone to multiple udon restaurants that claim handmade noodles but Raku is one of the only resaurants where I can taste that difference. Clean broth, high quality meat, good seasoning. I've gotten both the gyunan and wagyu and the wagyu was insanely melt in your mouth but the gyunan (which I think is a great base dish to get to know raku) was also incredibly tender and the meat prepared at the perfect temperature, you don't even need to splurge for the higher quality meat because their cooking elevates it. The sizing for the udon is generous and their karage is also one of the best I've had For the other appetizers, I've also had the agedashi tofu and ankimo (monkfish liver) which to be honest I think can be skips, not bad, well seasoned, and freshly fried but I think when you compare it to the noodles you might as well save room and skip the appetizers. The soho location is mid-sized with some five tables in front and other tables lining the hallway to the back with more space. The staff is very professional and the restaurant itself is nice and calm. A must-try spot in my opinion highly recommend

This is my first time enjoying udon noodle soup in NYC so let's see what it has to offer and it did not disappoint! We sat at the large communal table in the back - VERY loud talking so would recommend a booth or the seating in front of the restaurant if you prefer a quieter dinner. My coworker ordered the Chikara (mochi with chicken hot udon) with a side of veggie tempura, this was recommended by our server. I ordered the Niku + spicy oil (most popular udon with beef short ribs and honeycomb tripe) with side order of shrimp tempura and sansai vegetables. Food came out quickly within 10 mins and was piping hot served in fun pots! This amount of food was more than enough for 2! I wanted to order gyoza but next time! Broth was savory, beef and tripe were both very tender, tempura was lightly battered and fried. The vegetables had a nice pickling, nice crispy. My coworker really enjoyed her mochi. I even tried a sip of her broth and it was so flavorful! Chicken was soft and juicy. This was my favorite dinner during our stay in NYC thus far, I can't wait to come back! Dinner ended up being $88 in total after tax which I think is a great deal. Highly recommend Raku for those wanting to try Japanese noodles, either hot or cold!

But at last, as I searched on DoorDash I stumbled upon this glorious restaurant they call Izakaya Fuku. I was drawn to the adorable names for their sushi roll dishes like "Strawberry Fields" and their Italian Japanese fusion pasta dishes, "Creamy Mentaiko Bacon Pasta" with creamy mayonnaise, spicy cod roe and bacon like are you kidding me? It's a bummer I wasn't more hunger or that I didn't have more bucks in my wallet because I wanted all these dishes. And the Chirashi Don, god it looks so beautiful the way that it's arranged in the photos online. I finally decided on the carbonara. And I was drawn to the fact that it was udon based. Now, I've just been living in hawaii these past years so that Japanese twist on an Italian dish that I just love oh so much really brought me back to missing the islands and the Asian spins they had on cuisines. Now my food may have not come in a jiffy but for after midnight cravings I'd say it was well worth the wait. And my oh my the portion was huge!!!! I slurped that big boy up. It was SOOO delicious and savory. I love comfort food and this had me in carbonara heaven. I loved indulging into every single last bite. By the looks of the picture the restaurant looks lovely, I'd love to stop there and try it in person. Thank you. Thank you! My belly and my heart are very much satisfied.

And everything was presented in the same way, and everything slathered in the same yakitori sauce instead of each dish arriving grilled to perfection and presenting itself as its own particular delight executed from the imagination of a chef who truly cared.
