    Pork Gimbap
    David G.

    On a recent trip to Queens to pick up some artwork and visit the Louis Armstrong Museum (yes it really is in Corona Queens and amazing) we stopped at Lims. It wasn't very busy so service was fine. You actually order from an iPad on table, the waitress confirms and next thing you know you have delicious food. I had pork GimBap and kimchi. Both well made and tasty. My wife had a vegetable rice noodle dish that was truly phenomenal. My Japanese Kagua Rouge Belgian Strong Dark ale was a perfect malty foil to the Korean food. On the way out our waitress thanked us for coming and gave us whoopee pies with thank you notes attached.....a nice touch

    Army Stew(부대찌개)

    Wow! My boyfriend and I came here around 10pm on a cold Saturday night and were amazed by how amazing everything was! The space is extremely clean and nice with lots of open space. The food was incredible! Great authentic Korean street food with so much flavor and freshness, we couldn't stop talking about how pleasantly surprised we were! Our waitress was so sweet and even wrote a handwritten note at the end of the meal with some free chocopie for dessert :). Will 100% be back and recommend it to everyone.

    Kimchi Stew

    Incredible service & ambiance. The Kimchi Stew was delicious and hit the spot in a rainy day. Grateful for this little gem in the neighborhood. Definitely will come back to try more stuff on the menu.

    Amazing meal for a late night food delivery post flight. Super hearty soups and comes with good radish kimchi, white rice, and comes super quickly! Also packaged super nicely! If you have any late night cravings for Korean food, this is the go to

    The chicken was good as well as the bulgogi kimbap. It was nice and quiet because they're still renovating. We didn't know it was takeout only. But the server cleaned up one table so we could sit. It was so fulfilling, we got enough chicken to bring home to snack on later.

    Food was amazinggg!! Our server was also very attentive and nice! Had a great time :3 They gave us chocopie complimentary too!

    This place is amazing. I wish they had one in Brooklyn. Their gimbap is best in NY and my best friend is Korean and very picky and she agrees. I always order way more to eat later because it's so addictive. Well done. Hopefully they make the bar cool and hospitable so more people dine in.

It's a quick grab some food and go sit kind of spot. They also have several pre-cooked food items in the glass you can see. The place itself looks very clean. I got their pork and chives dumplings and they were absolutely DELICIOUS!! The servers were super sweet. I'm thinking of going back to the mall just so I can try more items on their menu.

Look out Katz's! I was looking for it up on the menu board, but all I saw was pastrami baos & pastrami rice box. I asked if it was still available and my man hooked me up by popping 2 thick slices of whole grain bread into the toaster and started to hand carve a big hunk of pastrami. I thought I was getting about half of what he pulled out, but he proceeded to pile it all on the bread after squirting on a slew of grainy deli mustard. He apologized for running out of pickles, but all I could think was "Take my money and gimme my sammich!" Even as I cradled the closed plastic container, the smell of hot pastrami permeated my whole bus ride home and I couldn't wait to dig into that salty, peppery crusted, fall apart tender meat sandwich. I'm sure the other people on the bus were jealous. Next time I might even try out some of the other rice & noodle dishes, but that smoky pastrami smell still lingers on in my mind.

Their sushi tasted fresh and had a great ratio of rice to fish. Their other items were good as well. My favorite item that I didn't expect was what they call the Dragon Ball. It is essentially a ball of sushi wrapped in avocado, and it was so great! Service was fast, and the atmosphere inside was comfortable. If you're looking to get as much sushi as you want for a reasonably affordable price, I highly recommend Akino!

They ask that you bring the full party. The mood here is calm and not as noisy as other resturants. This spot has 2 dinning areas. You pick from an ipad. Since today counts as a holiday, it was around 43$ pp paying cash totaling 57$ pp after tax and tip. I come to Akino everytime I come to elmhurst. The food here is the same quality and has not downgraded. The service here is pretty quick. When your time is almost up, they ask if you finish ordering. I love ordering their sashimi. I advice you to get as much as you can eat on the first round. Overall another good experience. And I will come back again.

My boyfriend and I got the triple entree combo to try a bunch of different ones. We tried the 3 curries including jungle curry, sour pork, basil pork, and garlic pork. The garlic pork was by far my favorite. We also got the mung bean dessert to take home which was decadent. Highly recommend this spot and exploring the dessert case with its many options!

    Cuisine: 7 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 6 Value: 8 Overall: 7 Maybe about a dozen years ago, this place was I think $7.50 for three items over rice. Unfortunately, it is now $18 for the same meal. Still a good deal, but no longer the best bang for your buck any more. Probably why I don't visit as often nowadays. With that said, the quality is similar. Food is served on steamed trays, so you pick your choices over rice. Most of the flavors are still quite amazing, though some food lose their crispiness or a bit lukewarm sitting there. Regardless, always a good. On the negative side, the lady server is literally counting how many little shrimps are in my dish from one of my choices. It felt very odd when she took a shrimp off my plate and put it back into the tray. I asked if I could get a couple more calamari pieces and she said that she would have to remove more shrimp to do so. This was not how they use to operate, but I guess times are tough. On the other hand, I was given a lot more of the string beans with chicken liver, which makes sense since it's a cheaper protein. Btw, the fish is yummy, but you only get about 3-4 pieces. Therefore, I think you should order that item separately and not on rice if you want a decent portion. Bottom line, Khao Kang is no longer where I will go for a delicious cheap meal on regular basis. However, it is still a wonderful quick sit down or grab-n-go spot for some of the most authentic tasting Thai food in NYC for a reasonable price.
