The owner of iDiner moved about four stores away to Irma off of Main Street, and I'd have to say ambiance wise it's truly an upgrade. They have a beautiful dining patio outside and a humble interior. The bathroom is easy to get to and spacious. Everything is at grade level which is even better for handicapped people. I had a party of six and we sat outside. There was a good mix of shade and sun for those who didn't mind being a little cold or hot. The restaurant was able to accommodate us on Easter Sunday an hour earlier than they originally do open, so we would be guaranteed a place to eat. (Every other option was fully booked a week in advance!) The food was really good. We had a mix of beer and boba shakes for those of us who are sober. The kimchi pancakes were perfect and no shellfish to be frightful of in regards to allergies. We tried their popcorn chicken and one was a little sweet and spicy and the other was plain. We shared edamame. And everyone was happy with their dishes whether it be the vegetarian japchae, beef bulgogi, dolsot bibimbap with an egg, house salad, soup, chicken katsu, etc! Only one star removed because the veggies were still more raw than cooked in the dolsot bibimbap. I know we were a large group, but cooking it a little extra would have been preferred. Happy eats! read more

This was my first time stopping by Narinatto and I was not disappointed! Super great ambiance and the outdoor seating was a plus. It was also dog friendly and had bowls for water. It's more of a quick sit down service type restaurant. You grab a menu from inside and then find your own seat. Once you decide on what you want, you head back inside and order. They have a ice cold water dispenser inside to pour for yourself as well as plenty of napkins and condiments which is a huge plus!! They deliver the food to your table once it's ready. I ordered the Boba Thai Ice Tea which was supper refreshing (it was more like a smoothie which was unique). I also got Beef Bulgogi with Udon and it was delicious! I will definitely be coming back soon!! read more

Food is excellent! Service with a smile makes you feel welcome. It's very clean and delicious. I highly recommend it.

Beautiful restaurant, but I do not recommend the food. I spent $ 39.50 on an appetizer & main course. Food was not good, no flavor. Please go somewhere else, even fast food would have been better. read more

I wanted to like this place, but my first experience fell flat. I ordered ramyeon to-go and it tasted like literally ramyeon I make at home with veggies. The worst part was that it was served all in one container so the noodles were fat and soggy and the egg was dry from being boiled in the lukewarm soup. I would have preferred the ingredients to be separated so the dish wouldn't taste like mush. The bubble tea is slush based rather than liquid. The variety of options was limited unfortunately for me. The service was friendly, however, and the ambience is clean, bright, kid friendly and casual. The round group table seating makes the place a bit limited in my opinion as it takes up a majority of space. The side seating seems to be preferred. Bathroom is clean. I believe they did a renovation. read more

food is so good! service was amazing, and the presentation was so nice. the owners are so kind.

Purchased dinner the previous evening. I can't praise this restaurant enough. The food is beyond delicious with flavoring that really awaken the taste buds. My diet consists of eating clean and Narinatto menu provides numerous options. My order provided for generous portions that was more than worth the price. A great value in my opinion. The proprietor is extremely friendly and personable and the location very clean and inviting. read more

This place is so so good. I highly recommend going here. There good is always amazing, I have never gotten a bad meal. I always go here and order in. The good is brought out fresh and hot, especially if its on one of those hot dishes that make your food sizzle. I recommend the chicken katsu for people who dont like spicy food and for people who like spicy or a bit spicy the bulgolgi soup (its called something else on the menu, its korean name). Also the togu cucumber appetizer is delicious!! The sauce that it has is sweet and tangy and filled with toasted sesame seeds. There boba is a frozen drink, not like regular boba shops, so the balls get less bouncy because its in frozen drink. But everything there, the aesthetics of the place is so nice. Its really nice and there usually is plenty of parking and its off of Main Street and by the train station! read more

Quiet lil gem in Port Washington! Great food and nice place to go to catch up with friends. Staff were friendly and great service!

One of my favorite places to eat in Port. Amazing Soups- their broth is great! Love all of their dishes and appetizers. Such great staff and cooks. Eating there is very inviting. Atmosphere is open and relaxing. Very nice outdoor seating as well. read more

Great bimbimbop and vibe - also great teas . Highly recommend for a quick casual meal read more

Great healthy food, fast and friendly service. The choices of toppings allow you to order exactly what you want.

It's a fave for everyone in my family- we usually stick with the bibimbap because it's so delicious and just the right portion size for us. I always think I'll be more adventurous next time and order one of the other tasty options I see other people eating but once seated I figure why mess with a good thing. Try it- you won't be disappointed!! Also they have a nice tea menu :-) read more

Always a fun place to get dinner. Ramen is to die for and there are so many options and so much variety on the menu. Music is always poppin

The food and the service is the worsted the food is still frozen when they serve it to you and when you ask to the waiter he has actitudes and is rude. read more

As the sole Korean eatery in Port Washington, it doesn't have a lot of competition. That being said, this place is pretty decent. The menu is a hodgepodge of Japanese, Korean and some American diner fare, but the ticket here is the Korean food. The hoedupbap (raw fish on rice) was pretty good and flavorful. Japchae was saucy and tasty and the bulgogi yaki udon was well done. The jjampong (spicy seafood soup) was good but a bit sweet and not as spicy as other places. Flavors here are good and close to authentic. If I have a gripe, its the portion size which tends to be small. Most traditional Korean restaurants charge about the same price (12-18 bucks an entree) but give about double the portion. They also don't give the banchan (side dishes) like regular Korean places but given that its a fusion restaurant, I can let that slide. Flavors 4 stars, value 3 stars for an average of 3.5 stars. read more

I went back for lunch with a friend and there's been a huge improvement since my last visit. They must have gotten a new chef because food was well cooked, delicious, and full of flavor. Must of the patrias during lunch were women and all of them had dol sot bibimbop (rice with veggies/meat in hot stone). Dol sot is also my favorite korean dish so I ordered it with kimchi and tofu. It had a ton of veggies which were cooked just right. I'm glad to see that idiner has turned around and is now serving great read more

Okay, first, off, let's start with the name. It's about the stupidest name one could pick for a restaurant. iDiner? That's taking the iPod craze a bit too far. I don't need some iCheese to go with my iOmelet or iSyrup to go with my iBelgian Waffle, thank you. Thankfully, the name is the worst part of the restaurant, so once you get over the stupid name you should seriously consider walking inside. The decor is surprisingly classy, not just for a New York dinner, but for a restaurant in general. The wooden tables are clean, simple, with nice stained wooden seats to go with. A variety of black and white photographs are hung above the tables, so you can concentrate a forlorn tree or a child in an old picture as you chew. Honestly, though, I am not one to go to a restaurant for its decor. It is nice that they upgraded it from the slightly sketch insides of the Greek dinner that came before it, but if that was all that was good about I would not go back. The food, really, is the main drive. When you think diner, at least for me, you think American staples. Grilled cheese, burgers, omelets, clubs, eggs, pancakes, waffles, etc. iDiner has those, so if you're really craving a Turkey club with chicken noodle soup on a rainy Sunday morning you can order that (fyi, the fries looked like big steak fries, not my favorite, but some people like 'em). Beyond just American food lies the treasure. The diners owners are Korean, and it is in the establishment's Korean and Japanese food in which it shines. The bibimbap has fresh ingredients and has just the right level of crispyness and moistness. The bugolki has a great, somewhat spicy sauce that sizzles on the thinly sliced beef, onions and peppers as you bring it to your mouth. The salad is a fresh mix of tomatoes, spinach, lettuce and onions. The Korean rice, purplish in color from the beans mixed in, also contains a lovingly chewy Japanese pumpkin. You can also get edamame, sushi and yes, French toast and Belgian waffles. iDiner is not your grandpa's diner. You can have fresh squeezed OJ, toast and a LEO or you can have Udon and a spicy tuna roll. It's surprising enough to find such a combination under one roof, but what makes it more than just a fusion write off is that they pull it all of quite well. Asian Fusion does this place as much justice as its cheesy Apple inspired name. read more

This a simple and modern restaurants with a few tables. Great food however. Pictures from before 2021 appear however to be from a previous incarnation of a restaurant of the same name. Look at pictures from 2021 onward. They are accurate. The shrimp tempura is crispy and great. The beef udon in stone bowl on a block of wood is really good. The udon texture and chewiness are just right. Sapporo beer from tap came in a nitrogen-cold, thick beer glass the like of which I have never experienced. There was a thin layer of frozen beer foam on top. That's how cold it was. Excellent. Setting is simple like I already said. But you are here for great food, right? read more

Amazing service. We called ahead because we were worried it would be super busy for lunch. They had our food on the table for us by the time we got there. It's a little pricey for what it is though. But seeing as how it's the only Korean joint in Port Washington, I can't blame them for jacking up the prices. There's far cheaper places in queens with the same food. Tell them to go easy on the salt. Street side parking only, but the parking in Port Washington is generally not too bad. I would come here again. read more

Narinatto - Bulgogi bento box (and ramen) for lunch - Asian Fusion Near Me - Port Washington, New York

Love love this place! As a Korean American, the food is amazing and I appreciate how there is korean food in this town. I usually go to manhattan or queens for authentic Korean food, but iDiner is great! Their hot stone bowl (gopdol bibimbap) is amazing where the dish is served on a literal hot stone bowl with rice, veggies and an option of Korean hot sauce (gojoojjang) which I totally recommend! The best part are the little bits of burnt rice on the bottom! read more

I ordered from Narinato tonight, the Mandoo was excellent as was the shrimp shumai but from here it went downhill. I ordered Bulgogi, beef marinated, pieces of beef, I received ground beef. I have had it there before and it was very good or else I won't have ordered tonite. I spoke to Chris, who is very nice, he showed concern he gave me the owner, who told me there is nothing he can do about it and had to accept it, $21.00. He didn't even feel a little upset about it. As much as I love the mandoo and the. Shrimp and want to support Narinato I can't afford to. read more

I can't say enough about how lovely this restaurant is! My friend and I ate there for lunch. The food was fantastic, very hot and served in nice bowls on cute little benches. The outdoor seating made it so comfortable, in these Covid times. THANK YOU, Narinatto for being another jewel the Port restaurant crown! read more

Favorite restaurant in port! It hits the spot everytime! I have been going here for 10 years the bibimbap, ramen, japchae are some of my favorites! read more

Delicious Korean fusion food, and great service! I have had their bubble tea (okay...more like a bubble smoothie since I'm pretty sure it has ice cream in it), japchae, soondoobu jigae and bulgogi in various forms. It's all very good. This is filling a niche in town since there is no other Korean restaurant, but you can also feel comfortable bringing your less food-diverse friends to eat since their fusion menu has basic American fare as well (but don't do it...order Korean food!). I like that they actually make food spicy and don't just automatically dial it down for me. read more

Their chicken katsu is the best I've ever had. I don't know how they make it taste that good but it is mind blowing. I literally went out and recommended it to half the people I know. Seriously try it out. read more

In need of a quick bite out on the island, we found this place and found the reviews to be pleasing. We decided to check it out and our first impression was that the front was very inviting. We were caught by surprise the restaurant style, as we were expecting more of a sit down restaurant compared to the order first and then sit down wherever you like. The wait wasn't long for the food, which definitely was good because we were hungry. We ordered chicken katsu and chicken teriyaki with Udon noodles, along side an order beef dumplings. The beef dumplings were ok, not great, but not bad. The chicken katsu's Japanese mayo and special sauce gave it a rich and wonderful flavor that definitely took away from the bad. It was served with purple rice, and despite the fact that it looked like something brought it by aliens, it was far from out-of-this-world. My father's chicken teriyaki was served in a sizzling pan, and was cooked well. However, the biggest problem of this restaurant's food was most prevelant in this dish: the lack of flavor. Across the board, from the rice to the noodles to the chicken, everything tasted rather bland. We added soy sauce but yet again, the flavor just wasn't there. The only thing I actually thoroughly enjoyed was the katsu, which is what carries the review. This place is a miss overall, as the blandness outweighed the positive assets of our visit. read more

Have dined in and ordered out from here a few times. Only ever tried the ramen and the Korean entrees -- both great. Never felt compelled to try the Japanese/burger/sandwich options, since there are a bazillion Japanese/burger/sandwich places in town. The ramen travels well -- good for takeout. read more

So happy to have a yummy Korean restaurant in town! The bimbimbap is our favorite and is the perfect portion size for dinner, I always finish the whole dish and am never too full or still hungry. I also love the gochujang sauce they give on the side. We always wash our bimbimbap down with a frozen taro bubble tea! read more

If you're in the neighborhood and you're in the mood for Korean food, iDiner is the only game in town. The menu is way bigger than it should be (sloppy joe? really?), but the Korean backbone of their menu is pretty solid. Dolsot Bibimbap is a hard dish not to like and they prepare it well, although I've certainly had better elsewhere in Nassau. The bulgogi burger is an odd pairing, but they pull it off, proving once and for all that everything tastes better bulgogi. I find I come here a lot because this is also the only place in town where you can get bubble tea. How this is possible in a town with 10+ sushi restaurants and frozen yogurt places is beyond me. I brought my family from Ohio here to introduce them to Korean food and they were overjoyed. Whenever they come visit they ask to come back and I'm happy to take them back here. read more

We ordered here, cute store, food was average, not great. Ramen noodles were soggy, dessert order was wrong but we were already home when it was discovered. Check your order twice if you order out. read more

This is a cute little place with minimalist decor and flimsy wooden tables , but it has a certain charm. The menu is very eclectic and I had a tough time understanding exactly what type of restaurant it was. Clearly a large number of Asian choices as well as burgers and other basic fare. I started with the fried string beans which were interesting and served with a chipotle mayo sauce ( I think) for dipping. This is good item to get to share and snack on. My main was the Korean chicken which was served with a small salad and whole grain rice. The dish was somewhat small but the spicy flavor was excellent. They do not serve liquor but you can byob. There is a liquor store across the street and a few steps up the block. read more

Absolutely fantastic! Wonderful Bibimbap! Stopped for lunch at this unassuming, out of the way spot. So glad we did.

Great little neighborhood gem. I still can't figure out why it has yet to catch on. Love the bibimibop, salads, grilled cheese and they do a great spin on the Cubano. Great Staff super accommodating, and helpful. I really enjoy this spot, closed Sundays. read more

My roommate and I decided to travel the LIRR for the first time since COVID to see if we could spot NEOWISE (it was an acronym-heavy day) and we needed a place for dinner. Searching Yelp, I found Narinatto. We have limited Asian options in our neighborhood, so I was excited to order the japchae and my roommate got the chicken katsu, as well as two Thai iced tea boba milkshakes since it was hot out. We ordered from the train and it was ready to go when I arrived. The staff were super friendly, masked, prompt, and even gave us a free macaroon and free oatmeal cookie with our meal! We walked to the park to eat, and first of all, the food looked beautiful. And the portions were huge; I couldn't finish mine which made me sad because it was so good. I haven't had japchae for months and this was amazing. My roommate was over the moon about his katsu as well, and he finished it all even after commenting that he thought it could have made two meals. We're already planning our next visit (probably in the fall when we want to escape our neighborhood again). read more

I like iDiner! It is my go-to restaurant for when I have the chance to eat out with my Dad. The ramen is yummy, the bulgogi is nice, and I really like the bibimbap. I also highly recommend the Mandu! I never find the portions to be too small like some other reviewers say, in fact I often take home leftovers. It is also a nice environment and close to my home. The boba is yummy although more of a milk shake than milk tea. Overall a great restaurant! the food isn't exactly like home cooked meals or anything (why would it be lol that's not the point of a restaurant) so if you are expecting highly traditional and authentic cuisine this may not be the perfect place but it is for sure one of a kind in Port Washington and the immediate surrounding areas! read more

Room for improvement. "iDiner" has no wifi perhaps they should rename the place. They don't seem to want people lingering around l guess. Food is pretty consistently good (been there 2x) and progressive but the portions are small given their prices. Perhaps if they upgrade the interior or at the least add a smile on their face when they greet you, it would have a more inviting feel. read more

Went with my parents, sister and husband for an unforgettable lunch! The decor inside is beautiful and clean. 4 of us had the Dolsot Bibimbap (2 chicken, 2 beef.) Incredible flavor and amount of food for the price. A great value!! My sister had the Miso Ramen and loved it as well. We'll certainly be back! (Just one note: the waiter or host (not sure his specific duty) was very weird and awkward and kind of put a damper on the meal. He was clearing plates and serving us moving so slowly that it kept interrupting the flow of our conversation because it was that weird. He was dressed in business clothes like he was going to work on Wall Street. He was nice enough just very odd!) read more
