Did a walk-in around 9:30 pm on Friday and it was packed, but we were seated immediately at the bar. Important to note that they only take cash or Amex cards! Beautiful interior design. Real plants and flowers, a mix of earthy and industrial. The ambience was fun and club-like; the music is incredibly loud though so everyone needs to shout to be heard. If a nice dinner conversation is what you're looking for, maybe skip this place. Otherwise, the food and drinks were great. We got the bulgogi burger, which was delicious and filling with a helping of sweet bulgogi on a beef patty served with crispy fries. The lychee martini and cherry highball were tasty and sweet! Ended the night with a decadent chocolate cake which had layers of chocolate mousse on cake. read more

Mono Mono was such a beautiful restaurant! Its decor and aesthetic is out of this world. Probably one of the most nicest decorated restaurants I've ever been to. The entire restaurant is decorated with honey and plants, there are also decorations of old vinyl records everywhere. The decor is absolutely breathtaking and stunning! The service was also fast and the servers were really friendly. This is a Korean American fusion spot where the food is a blend of American and Korean. The japchae was really delicious as well as the fries. It could be that it was really delicious because they just put a lot of salt in it. But none the less, the food was good and tasty! It can be a little pricey though, and the meals are around $50 for two items. You should come here for special occasions such as birthdays or anniversaries. Price: $30-$50 Rating: 8.5/10 read more

We came here with a reservation on a Saturday night, and this place was super busy. We arrived about ten minutes early, and lots of parties came in and out while we waited. When we got seated, we were told that there was a 1 hour 45 min time limit to stay. The star of the show here is the ambiance. From the floor-to-ceiling bookshelves on the walls to the dark wood and the large floral centerpieces everywhere, this spot is definitely very Instagram-able. Of the food we got, our appetizers of shishito peppers with okra and beef tartare were the best. They were a good-sized portion, delicious, and well presented. For our entrées, we got the bibimbap, truffle japchae, and the bulgogi burger. The flavors for all of them were great, but not standout. The bibimbap add-on of beef bulgogi ($4 for just a few strips of meat) was a complete rip-off. They also only accept cash or Amex, with an ATM on site. Overall, I would come back again for the gorgeous backdrop and ambiance, but I wouldn't expect the best value or unique flavors. read more

Mono+Mono is a really cute spot, and the Korean fried chicken? OMG -- absolutely amazing. That alone makes it worth the visit. We tried a bunch of the appetizers and honestly, they were all good. The kale salad was solid, the shishito peppers were delicious, and we shared the fried rice, which hit the spot. The prices are pretty decent, especially for the quality and portion sizes. The only downsides for me were the drinks and payment options. The cocktail I had tasted more like juice -- very light and not what I was expecting. Also, they only accept AmEx, which felt really odd since most places usually don't take it, not the other way around. That said, I'd definitely go back -- mainly for the apps and that fried chicken. Just skipping the drinks next time. read more

When you walk in you complete disconnect from the hustle of NYC into one of the coolest spaces in NYC. Records line the bookshelf walls & amazing fresh flowers everywhere & large glass jars of soju brewing line the back wall & behind the bar. Truly an enchanting enclave. The food was so creative and amazing flavors I've never experienced before. Every dish from apps to entrees was a culinary adventure. Plus the soju drinks were works of art & delicious fruit & spice flavors. And the coconut cake with buttercream icing was outrageous. Well done all around, we will be back!!! read more

What we ordered: * korean beef tartare (3/5) * kimchi fried rice (3.5/5) * Truffle japchae (3.5/5) * Fig soju (4/5) [Taste: ] Beef tartare was pretty plain, I don't think anything about this was Korean. Truffle japchae was very fragrant smelling but nothing too special taste-wise. It's hard to mess up fried rice so it was pretty good, but tasted more like Chinese fried rice. [Service: ] You do not get what you pay for, but felt bad for the server though because there's only one other guy. [Comments: ] Tables are so squished together it's impossible for servers to move around, have someone accidentally bump into you, or not hear the conversation of the next table. Good for a vibey girls night out, bad if you're expecting rich flavoring. Also definitely not a "Korean" restaurant as they advertise, it is more fusion. A shame since the interior is very cool! read more

Mono+Mono is probably one of the prettier interior looking restaurant out there with flowers and decor designed very beautifully! The record bookshelf area with rotating records on top adds a warm and futuristic vibe to the entire dining experience. So if you only care about the aesthetics and instagram-worthy photos, this is the place for you! The food was where it didn't meet our expectation, especially for the price. The galbi jjim, one of my most beloved Korean dish, was the biggest let down. It came with 5 pieces but the meat was not as tender as it should be, it was a bit more tough and chewy which is not reflective of traditional galbi jjim. The porridge was also on the blander side, even though it did come with a good portion of chicken. The truffle japchae was very flavorful, but the lack of meat made the dish overly simplistic in terms of flavor and texture. The best items we got though had to be the clam chowder and fried chicken wings. The clam chowder was so rich and intense that it paired PERFECTLY with the toast that accompanied the dish, we cannot recommend this highly enough! The fried chicken wings were perfectly crispy and moist in the inside, which is the perfect snack to pair with your cocktails or beer. The bimibap was just okay, nothing too extraordinary but didn't taste bad. Overall we had a good dining experience, even though for some reason they didn't have a record of our reservation, but it was resolved since we came early enough that there were seats available. No one asked to check-in about our food, so we didn't get the opportunity to raise our concerns. Overall, there is so much potential for Mono-Mono to be amazing, especially with its beautiful interior decor. Hope this helps them achieve the very best. Thank you for reading and best of luck!

Greeted by a very kind and welcoming host. Gorgeous interior. Not sure what the theme is but it was pretty endearing, whimsical, fitting for my autumn visit. Tried the Cococane Mojito and Blueberry Cocktail. Pretty to look at but they left a fairly bitter vegetable taste. Almost like rhubarb. The food itself is average. While I did enjoy the overall flavors, I don't know if I could say it was worth the price. I thịmk this place is worth visiting mainly for the interior and vibes. Not many places like it. From the floral touches to the vinyl bookshelf seats, this was a cozy backdrop for dinner and I was in no rush to leave. read more

Super cute interior, friendly staff, and decent food. Nice spot for dates with closed off bookshelf seating areas :) FOOD: Soy Garlic Wings (8/10) - Reminds me just like bonchon. Super solid and juicy wings with the perfect glaze Kimchi Fried Rice (7/10) - Good flavor, but pretty oily compared to most kimchi fried rice I've had. Worth trying Truffle Japchae (5/10) - Smells like truffle but you can't taste it at all. Extremely oily as well. read more

The vibes of MONO+MONO are so uniquely beautiful. I was truly blown away by the beautiful bookcases, dried flowers, and wooden decor scattered throughout the place. The food was a bit of a let-down for me and the service wasn't the most attentive, but the ambiance is truly unmatched. FOOD [4/5] + Squash Soup (3/5) A pretty good take on squash soup. I wish it had a little more depth and flavor because it just tasted like soup out of a box. It was also served a little cold, which was unappetizing. + 6 Chicken Wings (5/5) These were great! I loved the addition of veggies and sauce. The chicken wings are crunchy, juicy, and flavorful. A bit expensive for just 6 wings but I would order again! I would come back to MONO+MONO to try more food but this is a great place to take a date. :) read more

I came here for dinner per a friend's recommendation. The best thing about Mono+Mono is the ambiance. There are so many beautiful flowers, a wall full of books, dim lighting and more. It really has so much potential to be a great spot. The food is mediocre and it also got a grade B from the sanitary inspections (most restaurants have an A). I was pricey and I thought the fried rice was a very small portion compared to the sushi (I forgot a picture of the fried rice). Service was okay but we had to wait quite a while for the check. Overall I thought it was okay. I would not go back again but it truly is one of the most beautiful venues! read more

MONO+MONO - crispy chicken roll - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

MONO+MONO has that dark, moody vibe that feels made for date night -- cozy lighting, shelves full of books (no, you're not expected to read them), and just enough atmosphere to make you feel cooler than you are. There's a huge flower arrangement in the middle of the room that's definitely trying to be the main character -- and honestly, it kind of works. Food-wise, the braised short rib was super tender and packed with flavor. The crazy kimchi fries were messy in a good way -- spicy, cheesy, and hard to stop picking at. Solid spot if you're looking for good food and a place that feels just a little more interesting than your usual dinner out. Service was solid, what you would expect at a place like this. read more

We were accommodated as a group of 8 celebrating my friend's birthday! They were super great with us and service was fast and timely. They did say the amount of food we originally proposed were not that much food for 8 people but honestly we were all so full after eating all the dishes. The vibes here are perfect for a get together and a date night (my friend has been here on a first date five times) and I definitely enjoyed my time here. I think the only thing I would flag is that the price is really high and especially because we were charged $30 for two tiramisu with birthday candles also. Kind of pricey... and the tiramisu isn't that good so I would recommend probably bringing your own cake here and seeing how much it is to accommodate it. -- APPS -- Baechu jeon 1/10 - Korean pancake. Absolutely soggy and not good. I wasn't a fan- I've definitely had better. Artichoke - 1/10 waste of money- hard to chew and eat Mono wings- 10/10 amazing actually. So crispy and tasty. I always expect this to be good at a Korean restaurant though. The soy garlic was flavorful and not too oily and/or coated! -- MAINS -- Truffle japchae 10/10 - probably my favorite one! So tasty and flavorful. Bibimbap- 4/10 very average... don't know why someone would pay for this other than dieting. Kimchi fried rice - 6/10 good but it taste less kimchi than expected. Egg is cooked nicely. Strip steak 10/10 - my fave! Everything was cooked to perfection and the cooked carrots made the mashed potato even better. The meat is so tender. I really enjoyed this one. Braised beef short ribs- 10/10 excellent! Cooked and marinated really well. We also ordered some pork dish that wasn't on the menu online but it's not that good. -- DESSERT -- Tiramisu 1/10 $15 too much. I didn't like it- very bland and not soft enough. Overall I really enjoyed the mains more than the apps I especially didn't like the artichoke and the Korean pancake which I would avoid at all cost since the price tag is already so hefty. I would prioritize other things or even just order more wings. My favorites were def the skirt steak and the truffle japchae. read more

It's spacious, with high ceilings and plenty of seating as well as detailed decor, with natural greenery and records everywhere. Service was good here. My friend and I got their truffle japchae and a sushi roll to share. The truffle japchae was amazing and was packed full of flavor. I just wish they had an option to add a protein or something to it. The sushi roll was also pretty solid. Would come back here to try their fixed menu or other items! read more

One of the cutest restaurants I've ever been to?? You'd never guess the interior looked like that given how innocuous the exterior looks. We had a party of 3, and technically you need a party of 4 for prix fixe, but the staff was kindly able to accommodate our request! The prix fixe was A LOT of food, though. We got so full off of the apps that we could only take a few bites of our individual entrees at the end. Something to keep in mind if you plan to do prix fixe with a smaller group! With that being said, we only got so full off the apps because they were all so delicious! Seriously all hits no misses. My Wagyu fried rice at the end was also phenomenal - recommend!

This place has the coolest decor/ambiance. Good lychee martinis, and some more adventurous options like a pepper martini or pickle martini. We enjoyed the food, apps especially. Don't miss out on the shoshitos/okra! For mains the japchae noodles were tasty but a bit monotonous, and the kimchi rice really needed the bulgogi to shine. Bimibap (served w soy meat substitute) was just ok. Detracting from the experience were the servers pushing our table to leave at the end. read more

We had an 8 PM reservation for 14 but arrived at 7:47. Despite that, our seats weren't ready until 8:16. When we asked for an update around 8:03, the front desk attendant simply told us we had to wait 15 minutes. Meanwhile, they seated another large party that arrived after us. It was frustrating that reservations didn't seem to be managed properly--what's the point of booking ahead if the timing isn't respected?. Food-wise, it was good and unique. The truffle japchae was great--you could really taste the truffle. I also enjoyed the kimchi fried rice. The shishito peppers were interesting, with a nice spice and seasoning. Some dishes leaned a bit heavy on the salt, though. We also tried a meat dish (I forgot the name), which was savory and tender on my end. However, my friends, who had larger pieces, found theirs tougher to chew. It seemed like some pieces might have been overcooked or not handled evenly while cooking. We also got the infused soju, which is perfect for those with a lower tolerance--it mostly just tasted like juice. The decor is really cute, with books in the background, adding to the cozy atmosphere. Overall, I'd say this place is better suited for a date night rather than a large group gathering.

A flower shop/cafe/restaurant is gonna blow your mind. Beautiful interior design of a library. The seating inside is very cute. You can sit in these tall chairs next to the shelves and it'll look like you are framed artwork. The service is good. They filled up our water pretty frequently and the servers were very welcoming. We got the Caesar salad. It was good but probably had a little too much dressing. I had the bulgogi burger paired with fries which were delicious. Very juicy and get ready for your hands to get messy. A nice combo of sweet but also salty with the bulgogi. My wife got the bulgogi kimchi fried rice which was also delicious. Not as spicy as other kimchi fried rice I've had. Definitely make a reservation when going even for lunch or dinner as the restaurant can get very crowded. read more

Lovely date spot. Had lunch here with my husband and we had a great time. The interior is so aesthetically pleasing. When you walk in you're drawn in by the beautiful decor and strong aroma of fresh flowers. There are old vinyls that line the walls, and there are a couple of tables along that wall with high chairs and each are tables for two. Each of those tables are lined with a frame that you literally walk into to get to your seat, which makes a perfect photo op. The ambiance is so romantic, which seems a bit of a juxtaposition with their menu which offers some gastropub like items on their menu, such as burgers, and fried chicken. My husband and I ordered a ceasar kale salad to share, which was good but had a bit too much dressing. I myself, got the bulgogi kimchi fried rice, which was so flavorful and tasty. The balance of flavors between the kimchi and bulgogi was perfect and the cheese on top tied it all together. My husband got the bulgogi burger which he really enjoyed. The burger was juicy and delicious. The fries were also A+. Would want to come back to try other items on their menu especially the korean fried chicken. read more

I seen Mono+Mono all over Tiktok, so my guard was up when I walked in. In my experience, places that are hyper curated like this tend to lack attention to detail when it comes to the food, and I was here to GRUB. I was nervous as I walked in with my big bro, my grand big bro, and grand bigs sister. Grand big RARELY invites me to dinner, so this was a big event. This place passed the vibe check with flying colors. Little 2 seat high top tables tucked under a 20 foot wall of 15,000 vinyl records, the most beautiful floral arrangements you've ever seen, jars of fermented foods above the bar, honestly one of the best ambiances I've seen in the city. It was almost too good. My words feel futile trying to describe it. As our group was appreciating the modernist quasi-industrial interior, I said "I hope it's not just fluff to hide some mid-food... it's feelin real fluffy in here..." Right when the words left my mouth I wished I could have them back. Grand big shot me a look that I can only liken to a prime Mike Tyson in a pre fight faceoff. I knew I would get a knuckle sandwich later. We opted to share everything and ordered 12 wings (6 garlic & 6 spicy), shishito peppers, a baby artichoke, bulgogi fried rice, and 2 bulgogi burgers. I almost ordered a martini but grand big doesn't drink, that would have been strike 2. The crispy wings made me eat my words right off the bat. They were delicious. No fluff. I couldn't decide if I liked the garlic or the spicy more. The shishito peppers did their thing as well. I didn't eat the artichoke because I never understood the artichoke hype, but the rest of the table loved it. The bulgogi fried rice was GAS, but was a small portion for $22.95 if we are keeping it a buck. The burgers were the only thing that we got where my fluff meter was correct. It was eh. Although this was the first bulgogi burger I've ever had to be fair. When I come back, it will be for the wings, shishito peppers, and a couple of martinis as these drinks looked bomb. All in all, Mono+Mono should be in the dictionary next to "ELITE 2nd date spot." I'm out the game now, but fellas this should be your only 2nd date spot. I think it'd be too much for a first date, but I would always do a chill first date when I was still hoopin. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews read more

The atmosphere inside was amazing, such unique decorations and it looked like I was in like a wizard's quarters. Very cool and the service was fast. However, I was a little disappointed in the food. The bulgogi burger was definitely pretty good but the bibimbap was very arbitrary and didn't feel like real korean food. Everything was just alright and I couldn't feel the Korean influence on the food as much as I would've liked. But very cool space! read more

This restaurant is only good for aesthetics. The interior looks really nice. However the food was just so so. Maybe I ordered the wrong dishes ? I ordered the pork tenderloin which was seasoned a bit too much and there was just so much sauce drenched on top of the pork. The steak was just okay, nothing special. They have to do something about the chairs which are hard and like the ones you see in classrooms. I saw some chairs at other tables that were much nicer. I didn't know until I scanned the QR code for the menu that they only accept cash or Amex, but usually not everyone has Amex. We told the server we only had Visa and when it looked like we were going to leave, she said she would confirm and came back and said they accept Visa.... So then why are they saying they don't ? read more

Mono Mono has the most unique, one-of-a-kind decorations and vibe of any restaurant I've been too. From giant flower arrangements, pristine behind the bar decorations, floor to ceiling book shelf stocked with records, and conveyor belt in the ceiling with vintage records hanging down, there's nothing that didn't surprise me. There was even a unique smell with fresh flowers at each table and a piano with bouquet decorations next to the live DJ set up. The description of cocktail and appetizer bar is very applicable, as the Kimchi fried rice left me more hungry than I entered, although appetizers including Korean Beef Tartare and Dongchimi Ceviche provided the adventurous pallet allure I was desiring. read more

My friends and I visited this restaurant on a Wednesday evening, and overall, we had a pleasant experience. The ambiance was lovely, with tasteful decor that added to the charm. Although our larger party was accommodated, the seating was a bit snug but still comfortable enough. What we ordered: * Korean Beef Tartare (Yukhoe) * Strip Steak * Bulgogi Kimchi Fried Rice * Baby Artichoke with Garlic Aioli The standout dishes for me were the Korean beef tartare and the strip steak. The steak was cooked to perfection--tender, flavorful, and paired beautifully with its side dishes. The yukhoe was another highlight, beautifully garnished and balanced with vegetables and a sauce that brought the dish together harmoniously. The bulgogi kimchi fried rice was good, but it didn't particularly stand out compared to similar dishes I've had elsewhere at a lower price point. As for the baby artichoke, it was just okay--nothing remarkable in flavor. The overall experience was enjoyable, especially for the ambiance and service. read more

Cute restaurant with beautiful decor. Love the wall seating that looks like you're sitting in a library. The staff were friendly and came to check up on us a couple times through the night. My favourite dish was the japchae - it was nicely flavored and loved the mushrooms in the dish. The kimchi fried rice wasn't spicy but a bit oily for my personal preference. The wings were delicious but we couldn't tell what the sauce was and it was a bit too liquid. I really liked the White Peach Bellini cocktail so I would recommend! read more

My overall rating for this highly anticipated restaurant was 3.5 stars. We were a party of 3 for Saturday dinner at 5:15. They let you know that you have an hour and 45 minutes until they need the table back. You MUST bring cash or AMEX card only!!!! I completely missed this. You see it on the menu page. They have an atm inside for you to take out cash for a fee. We were seated right by the entrance leading towards the kitchen/restrooms. It was honestly the worst seats in this beautiful restaurant. Not only that their table is small. We barely fit all of our foods and drinks on the table. Very cramped! It was uncomfortable. While we were eating, they decided to mop the hallway floor with clorox right by us. Perhaps there was a spill while delivering food. I am not sure, but it stanched so badly that it ruined my dining experience. I was inhaling cleaning supply while eating their delicious food. The other thing was a man (worker/owner) decided to climb up on a giant pot of flowers and add some flowers to it while people are dining around. Then he proceeded to spray water or whatever is in his bottle at the plants right by us and the customers near. Like what is going on here??? The other odd part was our drinks came much later than the food. The waiter that sat us and took our orders disappeared at some point so we had to ask bus boys/other workers in black to give us more water, utensils, and drinks. More than halfway into our meal we got another waiter who introduced himself and said he was taking over. The second waiter was excellent. Everything we ordered was delicious: Baechu Jeon, bbim bbim bap, soy and garlic sauced chicken wings and braised beef ribs. Our cocktails were also great. The kitchen staff & the bartenders are cooking amazing food and making great cocktails. However, the hostess/waiters team needs to do a better job here (except the second waiter) we had. The hostess never had a smile nor friendly greeting. Maybe I came at a bad time or maybe it's like this all the time. But the service needs to be consistent and well delivered. It needs to match their delicious dishes & drinks. read more

I came here for my birthday brunch and everything was absolutely delicious. I've been craving to come back ever since! The galbi was so tender and paired perfectly with the rice cake and mashed potatoes. The japchae was on point, and the kimchi fried rice was full of flavor with a perfectly cooked egg on top. The fried chicken was crispy and beautiful, but it didn't have enough flavor for me--could've used more soy garlic. The espresso martini was fantastic, and while the tiramisu was just okay, the coconut cake was divine. It was creamy, sweet, moist, and just so good. Mono Mono also doubles as a floral shop, adding to its unique charm. The vinyl jazz vibe is a lovely touch and really enhances the atmosphere. Service was decent.

The atmosphere and space here is just gorgeous. It's filled with records and florals throughout the dim-lit, rustic space. If you're on a date, there's a couple tables tucked along the wall within a book surrounded by vinyl records. I will say that all the tables are small, so it's a tight space especially if you're ordering a lot of food. We started off with some cocktails and I had the Fig & Ginger Soju ($16), which was delicious. All of their drinks tasted exactly like the ingredients and pretty light on the alcohol. Between the three of us, we shared the Grilled Summer Corn ($7.95), Potato Wedges ($13.95), Baechu Jeon ($13.95), Small 6pcs Mono Wings ($18.95), Truffle Japchae ($22.95), Bibimbap ($18.95) with Beef Bulgogi (+$4). Everything was good and tasty, but the wings and potato wedges stood out the most. You can't go wrong with Korean fried chicken as they're huge pieces, flavorful, and crunchy. I liked that we could get half and half flavors but come for happy hour discount for a real good deal. The wedges seem simple, but they're strategically stacked like jenga and paired with various sauces while sprinkled with parmesan as well. The corn is too simple for what you pay, but pancake is good for sharing too. The entree plates seem almost like appetizers since they're pretty small portions. I like the take of truffle and mushrooms in the japchae while the bibimbap is a classic. Overall, delicious food in a beautiful environment. I'd love to come back for happy hour for their $2 mono wings though. Great spot for any occasion! read more
