We ordered the shabu-shabu with two soup bases: mushroom and their signature miso broth. Both were comforting and flavorful, but I personally loved the miso one more -- rich, warm, and perfect with the beef, tofu, mushrooms, pumpkin, and vegetables. The ingredients all looked very fresh and high quality, especially the beautifully marbled beef and the variety of mushrooms. The side dishes and sauces made the whole meal feel thoughtful and complete. We also ordered the pancake, which was crispy, savory, and great to share. The interior is another highlight -- very cozy, calming, and beautifully decorated with Korean-style details. It felt like a little escape from the city. read more

I tried their $60 NYC Restaurant Week menu and I honestly thought that's actually worth booking! Oncheon brought korean hot spring inspired cuisine to the heart of busy ktown, and I'm beyond excited that we finally have a spot in NYC serving korean soy marinated seafood. The marinated seafood platter would've been $79 for two if we ordered à la carte, so the RW menu felt like a steal. This is the perfect way to try both the seafood and shabu-shabu without committing to a full order of either. We left SO full. ＊Seafood Kimchi Pancake ＊Crispy Beef Fritters It was hard to pick a favorite between these two. The kimchi pancake had some nice charred, crispy edges that I loved, while the beef brisket one was coated in this super crunchy batter that almost felt like chips. ＊Signature Shabu-Shabu We went with the recommended doenjang broth and wagyu ribeye, and WOW... I could've kept sipping that broth all night. The set comes with your choice of wagyu, veggies, four sides, and four dipping sauces. My favorite was the ponzu, as it added a citrusy kick without overpowering the beef. ＊Marinated Seafood Platter (+$9) The salmon slices were so thick and fatty they could barely stay on my chopsticks! And the soy marinated blue crab had way more meat than any I've tried in NYC. I'd come back just for this. I also loved making handrolls with the fresh shrimp and rice. ＊Fruity Bear Ice Cream ＊Green Tea Tiramisu I hate to say it, but the desserts were meh...The ice cream tasted artificial. The tiramisu was dry and barely tasted like green tea, and the mascarpone cheese wasn't fluffy and had a funky taste. I'd save dessert for somewhere else, but the prix-fixe is still worth it even if you skip dessert. read more

Overall: 4 stars Intriguing shabu centered restaurant in the heart of Koreatown that I've never noticed until they had an Uber Eats promo. I like their food and clean flavors, and will definitely be returning to dine in. Steak Chanbap - Really fulfilling and clean steak and rice bowl actually; I think the steak is a bit difficult to maintain well from takeout, but it goes super well with the fresh wasabi, poached egg, and the rice. It's perfect alongside a sweet soy. Food: E Presentation: +1 Price: E Insta/Yelp/Beli: @amei_eats Insta/TikTok: @ameizing.race read more

Oncheon - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

Amazing dining experience at Oncheon NYC! The Korean hot spring-themed atmosphere is gorgeous and relaxing. We tried the NYC Restaurant Week $60 three-course dinner, featuring delicious beef fritters, a super fresh and refreshing marinated seafood platter, and an adorable bear ice cream. The signature wagyu shabu set is also top-tier, clean, and satisfying. Highly recommend making a reservation on Resy before you go! read more

Seafood pancake was bit burnt on the bottom. Crispy beef was decent. Seafood platter was average and the wagyu was ok but the egg and rice was better. Tiramisu was average and the ice cream isn't at all what was advertised. Service was ok but felt like a bit rushed and ambiance was casual. Overall wouldn't come back. read more

Oncheon definitely has a beautiful, upscale aesthetic, but the overall setup doesn't feel entirely practical for a shabu shabu meal. A major drawback is that you can't adjust the heat yourself at the table. While the concept of the 3-4 layer bento boxes is visually very cute, it's definitely not ideal for larger groups. I also wished our waiter had taken the time to explain the menu and the concept to us when we arrived to make things clearer. As for the food, the ingredients tasted fresh, but the portions are on the smaller side, so you will definitely need to order à la carte add-ons to feel full. The best thing was their signature soup base, it was incredibly delicious and reminded me of traditional Japanese shabu shabu. For the beef fritters I also didn't get to taste the beef as much so that felt like a miss for me too read more

Came for the marinated seafood platter, stayed for the makgeolli! The milk tea honeycomb makgeolli might be one of my favorite new drinks in the city. Came for a weeknight dinner w/ a resy. Good amount of space but would still recommend making a reservation since they aren't hard to get. Interior is fine, not really the zen hot spring vibe I was expecting. But the food was very tasty! Marinated seafood platter (seasonal for the summer) was refreshing and perfect in the hot weather. I also really liked the beef fritters- super crispy. read more

Overall, the meal was delicious! The atmosphere is very peaceful and aesthetic. It really fits the idea of a Korean spa/hot spring. The service was fantastic. Everyone was kind and offered help wherever they could! The meal was tasty with a lot of different sauces, meats, bonchon, and veggies. The only issue I had was with the price. It was much higher than I'd expect for Shabu Shabu. We ended up spending around $50 per person before tip read more

Oncheon - Shabu shabu - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

Oncheon is a stunning Korean restaurant in Manhattan's ktown with a soothing and calm ambience. The space is beautifully decorated and I love all the decor. There's so much attention to detail even to how the menus were displayed that I really liked. My friend and I shared the lunch shabu shabu for two with the waygu and brisket, udon noodles and ma la soup base. Overall it was filling between the two of us with the set. This is a great spot in ktown for an elevated dining experience! read more

Oncheon nails the hot spring concept, the decor and overall ambiance really do make the space feel transportive and intentional rather than gimmicky. It's warm, moody, and immersive. The Seoul Glow cocktail (Asian pear-based) was good - definitely on the sweeter side, but surprisingly strong. Super easy to drink. The su yuk was delicious and one of our favorite dishes of the night. The spicy sauce served alongside it balanced everything really well and added a lot of depth without overpowering the meat. Our only real disappointment was the seafood kimchi pancake. There wasn't much seafood distributed throughout, and the kimchi leaned more sour. There was also a huge amount of shredded leafy garnish on top (possibly perilla?) that kind of overwhelmed the dish texturally. The dipping sauce was nice, though. The seafood platter - which was really the reason we came - was very good for a little under $80 and had a solid variety. The shrimp and salmon were especially well-marinated, and honestly I preferred their marinades to a lot of others I've had in the city. My one note is that I wish the crab had sat in the marinade longer. The claw meat in particular didn't feel like it fully absorbed the flavor the way the other seafood did. read more

what i ordered: beef steak chanhap what i paid: $34.00 after tax and tip would i get again: yes, highly recommend the lunch specials :) i just recently heard about oncheon and after seeing their lunch menu, i knew I had to go! The inside is very cute and I was able to walk in on a Friday a little after noon and get a seat right away. The food was well seasoned and I enjoyed everything! In the side dishes, there is a frozen lychee jelly that was the perfect dessert to go along with the meal. I made friends with the girl next to me who got the marinated seafood platter and she really enjoyed her food as well. read more

5/5 Chanhap unagi $35- My friend said this is the best eel she's had in the US, & I agree. This comes with rice on the bottom, on the side: layers of rice, scrambled eggs, seaweed & furikake. There's also wasabi & pickled ginger on the side. The eel is sweet but I didn't really mind it, very flavorful & tender otherwise, I think the furikake or seaweed on the egg was too salty. I didn't use the wasabi which I regret. You're supposed to mix all the sides/everything together so you get a blend of all flavors in 1 bite- sweet, salty, spicy, umami. This also comes with banchan- soy sauce, seaweed, brilliantly plated kkaktugi wrapped in kimchi & a lychee yuzu dessert. Loved everything esp the dessert. 3/5 porcini mushroom set seafood platter $42 glass noodle $5 extra - the crab wasn't the best quality but everything else was pretty good read more

Oncheon ("On" = warm, "Cheon" = spring) really lives up to its name, the whole place has a relaxing, hot-spring vibe. The atmosphere is calm and comfortable, and they serve a very clean, healthy style of hot pot. We ordered the Oncheon Signature Set ($42 per person). For the soup base we chose the fermented soybean broth, which was excellent. The set comes with a box of assorted vegetables and four small side dishes. For proteins, we added the Wagyu ribeye (+$7) and the seafood platter. The Wagyu came with about 5-6 thin slices and the quality was really nice. The seafood platter included scallops, crab, white fish, clams, and shrimp -- a great mix for two people. After cooking everything together, the broth became incredibly flavorful from the seafood and beef. That's one of my favorite parts of hot pot -- the soup just keeps getting better as you go. Service was friendly and attentive, and the overall experience felt relaxing rather than rushed. I'd probably go with the seafood platter alone next time since it's a good value for the portion. All in all, a great spot for a lighter, healthier hot pot. You leave feeling full but still comfortable. read more

Came for lunch and enjoyed a cozy and interactive shabu shabu meal here, which they seem to be popular for. Note that for the shabu shabu, you're required to order a veggie & soup base set at a per person rate (which is then shared between 2 people), as well as add on a minimum of 1 protein per person. A bit confusing, and we noticed it adds quickly. The shabu shabu spread arrives in beautifully arranged boxes with individual dipping sauces and small banchan sides (the frozen yuzu lychee was so delicious!). For the sukiyaki soup base, they also give you an egg that you can use to dip your meats in. While the food portions seemed just right for everyone (we also ordered some extra noodles), I'd say if you came super hungry, the portions may not be completely filling. For lunch, it seemed like a "just right" appropriate amount, though we did head out to fill up on dessert afterwards too. read more

Oncheon is one of my favorite new spots around k-town for lunch & dinner! The ingredients feel premium in the food and the ambiance is very relaxing. The staff is always kind as well. The menu has two types of options, either a healthy hotpot set or a box set. I've tried both and they're both really good! The hotpot set comes with a large amount of veggies and meat and you can add in extras like noodles. The box sets are perfect in case you're not in the mood for hotpot. They both come with side dishes/banchan so you can't go wrong. The crispy beef fritter appetizer, unagi box set and sukiyaki hot pot are my personal favorites here. read more

My goodness! What an experience! From the servers, to the presentation, to the quality of the food, this place has it all! I was in the mood for something, wasn't sure what, and in NYC you can literally fall into somewhere great, and I walked past this place at least 20 times, but for some reason, it caught my eye today. Upon entering, you are immediately greeted but you get completely overwhelmed because from the outside, you don't expect what you walk into: it's dimly lit, but tastefully. The booths and tables are cozy, spread out enough to feel like you are alone. Even the bar (where I sat), felt like I was in my own world. It's beautifully decorated, and extremely aesthetically pleasing. With plants throughout, waterfalls, and perfect lighting. The server will give you several menus, offer suggestions, and pour you a glass of bamboo tea. I asked about it, and she stated that her family has it at home all the time, and it's the perfect complement to the meal experience you are about to have. I can't remember everything I ordered, but I decided I wanted glass noodles, and they were delicious. You're given a pot with whatever broth you decide to try, a platter of sauces, one of vegetables, and one of meat. The server will offer suggestions, ask your spicy tolerance level, and set everything up. It's so much food! And I did my best sampling everything, the cold and hot sauces were perfect, the meat was juicy, and the veggies were fresh and crispy. I spent under $45 for the entire meal. I'll be back very soon! read more

I felt like it was a comfortable place with nice ambiance. The presentation is beautiful but the taste was underwhelming for me in regards to the shabu. I got the soy sauce and everything felt just "okay" in regards to flavor but not a "wow". It's a solid place. Service was attentive and I made a reservation for two the day of for a Monday evening. read more

Visited again on a cold day in NYC! They sat us at the bar seating in the back and the ambiance was super crazy as always. Food was solid as well, but definitely a bit pricey for the amount of food. Very delicious though and would recommend visiting! read more

I stopped in for the lunch shabu shabu set and it was mid overall. Food: 3/5 I got the fermented soybean broth had nice flavor, and the Korean noodles were a good choice. You only get a few slices of beef, so expect to fill up on veggies and noodles. The standout was the fresh tofu salad--silky tofu, edamame, and a flavorful dressing I could eat every day. Skip the complimentary green-tea tiramisu they offer if you leave a review--it tasted mostly like whipped cream with a faint matcha layer. Total damage $55 with tip! Service: 4/5 I was seated immediately and had my pot and sides within 15 minutes--very efficient. The only hiccup was ordering tea: they poured one cup but never left the pot, so staff kept topping it with water by mistake. Friendly overall, and the owner seemed genuinely happy to check in. Ambiance: 4/5 Trendy interior with a Japanese vibe that makes you forget you're in busy Koreatown. It's a relaxed spot for a solo lunch or a low-key meal with friends. All in all, an okay lunch value and a fun shabu shabu experience if you're nearby. I'd return for the tofu salad, but probably not for dessert or a special night out. read more

I didn't even know Korean shabu-shabu was a thing before this restaurant! I went with two friends for an early Sunday dinner. Reservations were super easy to make - they always have a lot of availability. We got the signature shabu-shabu, the soy sauce sukiyaki, and the bulgogi gujeolpan to share. I've never had gujeolpan before, but it was delicious! I loved how thin the wrappers were - they reminded me of the wrappers you use for Chinese peking duck. The shabu-shabu was also so good! We decided not to order meat, which really confused all of the waiters. I think like three different people came up to our table and asked if we were sure we didn't want meat and if we were vegetarian. Honestly, they give you so much of the tofu and veggies that we were completely stuffed afterwards. We didn't need the meat at all! read more

My friend and I chose Oncheon for lunch because we saw great lunch deals on sets. To drink, I ordered the Korean pear cocktail which was delicious. A delicate and refreshing pear flavor, really really good. For my meal, I ordered the tteokgalbi which was a blend of pork and beef over rice. The set came with banchan that was really unique - like a lychee yuzu jelly and a perfectly wrapped spiral of kimchi. I would definitely recommend coming for their lunch specials, and I would love to try their shabu shabu on my next visit. read more

What a treat! The service is amazing and attentive and the food is even better. Our party of 4 made sure to make a reservation and we were able to be seated on arrival. We paired up to share soup bases, two of us ordered the sukiyaki and the other 2 got the mushroom broth. The sukiyaki was full of flavor and at times a little too salty but there's water to help dilute the broth. The mushroom was on the lighter side but perfect for those who don't like strong flavors. The staff helps you cook the sukiyaki and the other broths are self cook. While it was nice they helped cook when the meat goes in the timer to finish your food starts. The meat selection was delicious we didn't upgrade and found the quality to be pretty yum. Would recommend adding an order of fresh noodles to finish off your meal. The noodles soak up all the yummy broth! Would recommend for special occasions or just to enjoy a elevated time :) read more

Enjoyable experience overall. The uni beef tartare was excellent and definitely the highlight. I had the beef ribeye and seafood for shabu shabu -- good quality and satisfying. The matcha tiramisu was okay, not bad but not particularly memorable. Everything was well executed, though nothing really stood out beyond the tartare. Solid spot if you're in the mood for shabu shabu. read more

I wanted to try a different kind of hot pot/shabu shabu and this was highly recommended to me. So we had a group of 5, and that means you get 2 pots, but everyone gets their own set. So we picked two different soups, one doenjang and one shabu shabu (you need two stoves for this one). We each got to pick a meat, and I upgraded one to the wagyu ribeye while everyone else got a wagyu chuck or seafood platter. The waitstaff helps cook your meal for you and it was nice to have someone show you how to maximize your enjoyment. The sides were great, and I wish they were unlimited, but alas. Would definitely come back to try their lunch special someday! read more

My friend and I randomly stopped by on a Saturday afternoon around 2:30 PM. The restaurant was empty and we were seated right away. The decorations in the restaurant was beautiful. We got to sit in one of the booth seats which were comfortable; however, the seats and table were pushed in really closely together so it was uncomfortable going in and out. Our server came by pretty quickly with menus and cold tea. Service throughout the meal was great. For the meal we split: a SIGNATURE DOENJANG SHABU SHABU and WAGYU STEAK CHANHAP MEAL BOX. The Shabu shabu was great. Broth was tasty and had a good amount of toppings. The Wagyu rice box was also very delicious, a great composition of everything. We added uni on top which was a great addition. Each meal comes with delicious Bonchon. All of them were beautifully made and tasty. I especially loved the tri-colored pickle, black sesame paste and yuzu lychee jelly. All in all, a great meal option in K-Town! read more

My husband liked this place more than I did. I thought it was fine but preferred other standard hot pot places.

Came here for lunch on a Monday, and it was such a serene escape near Koreantown. They aim to recreate an atmosphere where you are eating near a hot spring. The place is spacious and each booth gives you an intimate feel with your company. The waitress was super friendly, professional, and calming herself. We ordered the $30 weekday lunch special which offers very generous portions. I had the crispy fritter, my friend had the Basa fish, which I highly recommend as it was moist and tasty. My other friend had the pork/beef, but turns out it was a patty which the side dish already has a sampling of. Each side dish is exquisitely crafted, and it felt and tasted high-end. They even provided a side of miso soup. From that standpoint the price was very reasonable. They even had a dessert side to complete the experience. read more
