The cold noodles were tasty. However, the cashier couldn't figure out how to turn on the cash register for 15 minutes after opening. The service was okay. This is in a food court so there's no real ambiance to speak of.
Seoul is in the back of the KTown Food Gallery on the right side of the Katsu vendor. Service is friendly and prompt, even on a busy rainy Monday night. I paid cash and received the ten percent discount. I ordered the Korean Ramen Soup you can build your own from a base price of eight bucks. The egg and veggie addons are a buck fifty each, rice cakes are two dollar addons, and proteins are three fifty each. I ordered the egg, bok choy and pork addons and my beeper went off in about ten minutes. Very efficient. I arrived home and thought I only would have half the ramen soup and saw no pork. After having half, I revisited the container with the ramen noodles and bok choy to take a picture, along with the receipt to demonstrate there was no pork and, lo and behold, there appeared a few slices of pork, which appear in the top right of the container in the accompanying photo. It was such an underwhelming amount of pork, that I felt justified in sharing the picture nonetheless. Look carefully or you'll miss the very modest protein portion... The broth is good, slightly salty, and the ramen noodles and bok choy are not overcooked. The boiled egg was not over boiled to death either. So we have the makings for a good bowl of ramen soup, but the paltry amount of protein needs improvement. At the fifteen dollar plus price point, this is competing with a range of offerings in the Gallery offering far more protein than you will see photographed below. 3 stars.
3.5 Located in Food Gallery 32, first floor. %off when paying in cash. Buzzer given. Got their pork ramen - hot soup on that freezing day. Good price for a large serving. There are options for spice level - mild for me was just right. Prefer japanese ramen noodles and broth was slightly salty for me. Not a lot of seating on the same floor but can go up to the next level for smaller tables and larger ones on the top floor (where other food vendors and restrooms are).
We got their jjajjangmyeon and tangsuyuk combo from here and it was alright. The flavor of the jjajjangmyeon was off and the tangsuyuk just tasted like Chinese-style sweet and sour pork. At least service was quick and portion wasn't bad. I think you could definitely find better for the price though.
honestly this was surprisingly delicious on both fronts -- I got their special black bean and seafood soup with noodles, and it was hard to decide which I enjoyed more. I really appreciated the variety that was presented, and the seafood soup was packed with seafood and so many chewy bites! the service was also very friendly and I received the food quickly. this is a great spot in food gallery 32 and i would definitely come back again for this dish. there's no specific seating to this restaurant, so be sure to wander around and grab a table as your waiting for your order to come out. definitely a casual place, where you get a buzzer after you order and pick up the food yourself
Seoul Menu is located in the Food Gallery 32, street level. 10% off for cash payments. I got the garlic chicken which comes with rice, salad, daikon and soup. Service was quick and staff give you a pager so you know when your food is ready. The garlic chicken tasted more like sweet-and-sour chicken, but that was OK. It still tasted good and was fresh. The remainder of the meal was fine as well. Traffic is insane. Take public transportation, rideshare or taxi to get there.
Very disappointed in the tteokbokki. Paid with cash for the 10% discount, but even then, I was sorely underwhelmed by the portion size for the price (pictures show an uneaten plate of tteokbokki), especially based on pictures in previous reviews from others. The consistency of the sauce was also lacking, somehow both gloppy and watery in the worst ways like cornstarch-water. The daikon tasted very sour but like it was too old and had gone bad. Overally, everything was lacking in flavor or just tasted flat out bad. Would definitely not recommend this place to anyone.
We as n in the mood for some ramyun and decided to head to gallery 32 since I was in the neighborhood. I got the seafood ramen and it got the spot. I wish they had more seafood selection in the soup but it did the job. Prices are reasonable and the ramen was ready in less than 5 minutes
What an awesome find. We happened to just be walking around after the Wind Up Watch Show and came upon this little food court in Koreatown. We stepped o side and couldn't decide what to get. We stopped here with their A rating and were very happy. It's a bustling food court and very busy with people ordering takeout and to stay. We lucked out getting a spot right by Seoul. Our food was excellent and made to order so very hot. I had the chicken pad Thai and was thankful that the egg was placed on top in the middle. I usually order it without but I forgot. I was able to just take it off with a fork. My man had the shrimp and broccoli and he was very happy. We are happy we stopped in on a whim. Prices weren't too bad either.
Located in the Food Gallery 32 it's at the very back behind the stairs. Quick and friendly. We ordered take out to eat back at the hotel. I got the veggie fried rice and hubs got the brown noodles. We also got veggie steamed dumplings to share. Food is hot and fresh and was absolutely delicious. I devoured my fried rice! Keep in mind that given its location it may be hard to find a seat to eat there. But there is seating upstairs as well. The food hall is loud and crowded but service here at this spot is great. You'll definitely enjoy the food.
I ordered a Bibim Naengmyeon. When I received it, there was no meat on it, when the picture shows that there should be meat on it. I asked about it and mentioned the picture, and the lady reluctantly took the bowl back and added the tiniest piece on it, and when I continued to ask for the portion like the one on the picture, she again only reluctantly took it back and had another tiny piece put on it. The egg was also overcooked and the noodles were not that good. This place is a scam, I dont think I will order there again.
First, we were underwhelmed by portion sizes; you would really expect more from this kind of place. The food was bland and kind of boring. It also didn't come out fully hot but rather got cold kind of fast. The lady was adding sriracha over the whole dish while she was asking if we wanted it over everything, so there was no point in asking anyways. There is no specific ambience as it's within the food gallery. Not really recommended; there are so many better options within the same gallery, not to even consider the whole block!
For what it is, it hit the spot for me. Or rather one half of it did. I got the 짬짜면 and I was in a hurry. Definitely demolished the black bean noodle side, but the jjampong side was a bit bland. Also way too hot temperature wise for me to scarf down so I packed it up. I still ate it later. Honestly for the price point and how fast the service was, I was satisfied, and accomplished my mission.
Got takeout from this vendor inside the Ktown food court on 32nd street, they offer a menu of casual eats. Their offerings include jjampong (seafood over noodles), mul nyaengmyun (chewy buckwheat noodles in chilled broth), ramen, dukbokki (rice cakes in mild/medium spicy sauce), jiajiang myun (Korean style sautéed pork and onions in black bean sauce) and various fried rice. I had a craving for jiajiang myun and they satisfied it. Not particularly stand out, the noodles were fair, maybe a tad over cooked, the black bean sauce quantity was sufficient, overall flavor was ok, though I wish there was a little more pork. For $12.95+tax it was a filling meal. Seating is shared with the rest of the food court, the most open area being usually on the 3rd floor. While I didn't use them this time, bathrooms are available though can be in mediocre or questionable condition, so wouldn't recommend. read more

Got mild Jjampong ($16), which was almost perfect for me. It was still a bit spicy, so I couldn't have more than several spoons of the broth. It was so red that I thought it was gonna be hella spicy, but I was so relieved to find it wasn't killer spicy. It was perfect otherwise. It comes in a huge bowl with plenty of seafood. I didn't think I'd be able to finish, esp considering I wasn't that hungry, but I did. All of the shrimp was peeled, except for the bigger one. I really wish they'd peel all of the shrimp. read more
Terrible cold noodle at the lowest price. Stopped in for a quick meal and the main perk is the selection and the fact that that cash has a discount. Besides that the cold noodles were not good. They had sat long before being made and were gummy and thick. The topping were okay but I felt it was lacking in most categories except the taste. Would not recommend. read more

This stall is located in food gallery 32, towards the back of the hall. It serves Korean-style Chinese food (jjiampong) as well as some traditional Korean fare (bibim naegmyung). Prices are reasonable and service is efficient. I ordered their jajangmyung at the register and was given a pager. It went off quickly, and the food was ready fast. The noodles were generously portioned and springy. The black bean sauce was added directly on top of the noodles and I mixed it together. The sauce had onions and pork. I also received a side of pickled radish, which went well with this dish. The meal was satisfying and not too salty. Confort food at its best! read more

12/21/23: My new go to spot for lunch when in the office. Good deal for the money. One of the options in a Korean BBQ food court. Service pretty quick, place and pay for order. Receive buzzer which will buzz when meal ready for pickup. I always get the spicy chicken with carrots and broccoli. Very spicy, and seasoned well to taste. Includes white rice a type of Asian Cole slaw and soup. Has yet to disappoint. read more

Seoul is a good option if you're craving casual, reasonably priced Korean food with huge portions. Located in the food hall on 32nd street, it has a large menu with discounted prices if you pay in cash. I ordered the seafood ramen, which nicely made with vegetarian broth when I asked for it. It came with octopus, some veggies, and lots of shrimp. Not the most exciting ramen you'll ever have, but it hit the spot on a cold day and left me full for the rest of the day. Wait time was about 10 minutes and I had no trouble finding a seat at one of the big communal tables. read more
If you want quick korean food that's cheap with big portions, Seoul is the place to go. It's one of the cheapest vendors in ktown and the food isn't bad at all. It's located in the back of the Food Gallery 22 on the first floor. Most of the dishes are $10-$15 which is an amazing deal. I got the dukbokki ($11.99) and it hit the spot for my korean comfort food cravings. It came with egg, fish cakes, and onions which are all my favorite add ins. Was it the best dukbokki i've ever had? Definitely not , but for $12 it was still very good and was enough for my friend and I to share. I'll definitely come back to try their other dishes but I had a positive experience. read more
One of the best Naeng Myun- Bibim and Mool ( Two different Naeng Myun styles) I prefer Bibim Naeng-Myun since it is a bit spicy. The service has been good so far but then it is a food court so don't expect the full service like other Korean restaurants nearby. However, if you would like to try the authentic naemyun for a fair price. There are many Korean BBQ places that offers this dish but I find this place taste better then other ( just the food itself) excluding the service and Banchans the restaurants offer. This place only gives Seasoned yellow radish ( Danmooji). Only thing I wish they would fix is to slice the cucumber little thinner but it is still good without it anyway. read more

Food for the Seoul. On our last day in New York we didn't really know where exactly to eat but we knew we had to rush to the airport so we found ourselves in this food gallery. We saw many options but making a quick decision we decided to give Seoul a try. We got the beef pho and the kimchi ham ramen. They asked if we wanted it spicy and we said yeah. The beef pho is nothing like Vietnamese style but it was ok. The kimchi ramen was the same but was hard to finish. Overall not a bad pick. The portions are big and good to eat for the cold weather and if you want something fast! read more

Food/Drinks: The food is very comforting and delicious. The crispiness of the dumpling and the seasoning of the beef were perfect. It was the perfect appetizer. The tteokbokki was the right amount of chewy and had the right sweetness-to-spicy ratio. I somewhat wish it was a little spicier but that's just personal preference. I absolutely love tteokbokki and I wish I could go back and eat theirs every day. Service: Given how full Food Gallery 32 always is, the service was fast and I got my food pretty quickly. The woman at the counter was also very nice and patient with me as I mixed up my cards...but other than that would love to come back often! read more

September 2022 visit Last meal in NYC! We always wanted to try the food court in K-town, but every time we came it was too late. LUNCH it is! We came right before the lunch rush, but even when it's busy, it's still easy to get a seat. I can't tell the difference between all the Korean spots since the dishes are all the same, so I chose the cheapest option based on the dish I wanted LOL. I was craving some seafood noodle soup. +1 price is fair! Under $15 I think +1 big portion +1 noodles are good -1 soup isn't spicy enough Lol Next time if I come, I'll give the stall next to it a try and see which one is better (though it's a few dollars more). Would I get it again? Yah! read more

Seoul is found in Food Gallery 32. We went around 4:30 pm and it was packed with people and it was hot in there. No air-conditioning. We ordered chicken bok choy over rice and fried dumplings. The soup came with it as well. The food was hot and delicious ! A pager was given to let you know when the food was ready. Service was quick and 10% cash discount. Staff were friendly. We went upstairs to look for a place to sit since not too many tables were empty. Price was reasonable ! I recommend. read more
We got the half jijiangmyun (black bean noodles) with the sweet & sour chicken. I felt like it was really good. Everything tasted really fresh. Though there wasn't much meat in the black bean noodles. It was mostly onions and tiny pieces of meat. The sweet & sour chicken had good flavor. But it wasn't that crispy. We were so full even sharing it between the 2 of us. We weren't able to finish it in the end. Next time we will ask for a container. We sat upstairs on the 3rd floor. It was pretty crowded at 5:30pm. But we had enough room to eat. read more

I've definitely been to Food Gallery 32 May times. ( which is where Seoul is located inside of the food court) When I come here Seoul is my go to. I ended up getting spicy seafood Udon noodles. It was great. Of Course I don't have a picture of my own food because I scarfed it down before getting a chance to oops. Would recommend! My only Con for the space was that it was one of those extremely hot days this summer when I came here and I don't think there was any air on the store. If there was air, it was very little so I was hot while trying to enjoy my food. read more

This was a great place to get a filling meal. I got the split bowl of garlic chicken and jajangmyeon. Maybe I was hungry after walking all the way from Soho but this was the best jajangmyeon I've had so far. There were a few pork pieces, the onions were sweet and the sauce was just right. The garlic chicken was a bit spicy but also sweet. It came with a few peas and carrots. The breading was not too thick. read more
My friend got the chicken japchae to eat there. Service was friendly and prepared relatively quickly. She was satisfied with the flavor, however I found it to be a little on the dry side. Some more vegetables would have been appreciated but I did enjoy the pickled daikon on the side. I would be willing to venture about more items from their menu. read more
