I live in LA and visit my family who still lives on Long Island a handful of times a year. We eat…read moreat Spoonsticks at least once per trip. We have an actual Koreatown where I live and this place is better than any restaurant there. The ramen, bi bimbap, bok choy salad - everything I've ever ordered is 10/10. Long Island is lucky to have this restaurant. Seriously. In a place that's dominated by pizza, pasta, and bagels, it's rare to find genuinely incredible food from other cultures. Any poor review on this page is a Karen who lives off mediocre Italian food and doesn't know any better. Spoonsticks is one of the best restaurants on Long Island.

I really wanted to love this spot - especially with all the amazing reviews, but I was very…read moredisappointed and dissatisfied. I really regret coming here. When we arrived, it was empty so we were seated promptly. As we got the menu and looked at the cocktail section, I asked the server what was in it? It said the name and that was pretty much it - she proceeded to go ask someone and then come back and say soju and flavorings but didn't exactly say what goes in it which was the whole point. She goes and comes back with an answer. I was curious about the second option but didn't even want to ask her, so I asked another server. His attitude was atrocious - he said obviously soju and proceeded to name the potential flavors and at this point I was done. Frankly we should've stood up and left. We finally ordered. Pork bun, seafood fried rice, tteokbokki with additions, and 2 bottles of soju. Pork bun was ok - there's better and it's not worth the price here. Fried rice - it didn't amaze me enough to come back and there weren't enough seafood in it to justify the name. Tteookboki was a sad excuse of a dish where they used frozen rice cakes and barely had any spice or depth. Overall we ordered and paid a good amount, but the prices didn't justify the flavors or quality. Not to mention, I'm eating and look up and i see on the bar they just left a cleaning solution on top like it's one of the drinks. It seems like they cater towards the western palate, but any asians or those who have had real korean food - be aware.

On a Saturday evening, we were able to get a table and it's a spacious but cozy dining room with lots of dark wood accents. It's a casual tavernesque spot and I think it's comfortable for families and friend groups alike, although I saw a few date nights happening around us. An all-around good vibe and expect swift and friendly service. They have one veggie option and normally that would be a little disappointing but when the one veggie option is THAT good, who cares? The broth is out of this world and there's generous amounts of bok choy, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, spinach vermicelli noodles and tofu. I added on a fire bomb because hot & spicy is life and I'll leave it at this: this is perfect giant bowl of ramen. Slurp, slurp away!

If you drive north on Rt 110, there is a small driveway next to Speedway , but if you're traveling south, make a left on Smith St into the Five Guys parking lot. We often come by this way on a Sunday morning and I realized why we hadn't tried Kokyou before and it's because they don't open until 2pm on Sundays, but on this Saturday, we came in just in time for lunch. The interior is very bright, neat and clean and we're seated in a middle table. Bamboo chopsticks are set on the table and they seem more elegant without the disposable paper wrapper. The picture menu gets your appetite going. I was looking for Ika Geso, but they don't have it on the menu, so we settled for Chicken Karaage, which was pretty good. The fried chicken chunks came out hot & crunchy and dusted with spicy shichimi. Soon, our deep bowls of ramen arrived. My BIL's Seafood Ramen had plenty of shrimp, scallops & a couple of mussels on the half shell in a dark soy chicken broth. My wife's Kalbi Ramen had chunks of beef short rib in a spicy pork & beef broth. My Gyuniku Ramen had slices of braised beef shank in a rich beef broth with plenty of baby bok choy. All bowls had a half soft boiled egg and corn niblets. I drained my bowl down to the bottom. I really want to come back to try the Donburi and I know I want the Curry Chicken Katsu over rice the next time we're out this way.
