    Salmon avocado roll and Soon Doo Boo Chigae
    Aleena G.

    Lovely lovely spot in the heart of Flatbush. Came here with my friend right before gym and needed something warm yet filling to energize us. I ordered the soon du bu and it was so flavorful with the right amount of spices and meat. Salmon avocado roll was prepared right and tasted so good l. This is a great spot for the locals and worth visiting!

    This place will never see me again!!!! I walked in and requested a table for 2 and was told that it would be a 25 min wait and have my phone number for a call back. As I waited outside with my gf she had to use the restroomupon reentering the restaurant we noticed that another couple was given a table ahead of us. And I am extremely upset for more reasons than I care to admit

    Chicken Teriyaki
    Cole S.

    Some of the best Korean food I've had in NYC!! This restaurant is located in a beautiful neighborhood in Brooklyn near Prospect Park. The inside was well decorated and the ambiance is one to beat. I got the chicken teriyaki and it was delicious. Full of flavor and a large portion. I would get it this over and over, it was that good! It is close to the Q line, if you are staying in Manhattan. The service was wonderful and they answered all my questions. This is a must if you are west of the park!!

    soondubu chigae: delicious
    Josh B.

    Great spot for Korean food. Came here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon with a friend and the place was pretty empty so grabbing a table was easy. Started off with the Japchae Seaweed Roll to share, which was a great appetizer to begin the meal with. For myself I ordered the Soondubu Chigae which is was also great. The broth was super flavorful and I couldn't help myself from ordering a second bowl of rice to make sure I got every last drop. Definitely glad I got to try this spot!

    Spicy Tuna Roll,  Volcano Roll, Edamame
    Sara W.

    Slow Loris is such an amazing spot. The menu is really big with so many amazing options, and everything I've tried has been fresh and tasty. Our waiter was so kind and accommodating, he was often checking on our table and wanted to make sure everything was perfect. We went on a weeknight which wasn't too busy, and were able to be seated immediately. They were playing very fun music, but it was at a nice volume where we were able to chat easily. I went with a friend and we shared the veggie bao ($10), edamame ($7), spicy tuna roll with crunch ($9), and a volcano roll ($19). The tofu on the veggie bao was so flavorful and prepared to be very crunchy, it was so good! The sauce and veggies were also very tasty, and bao bun was soft and silky. Edamame was nice and fresh as well. The sushi was all delicious, and was worth the splurge. The fish was really fresh and the sauces they used actually made these spicy rolls have a little bit of a punch! Highly recommend.

    This restaurant has a nice vibe inside but very small. It took 45 minutes to take our drink order. When we finally were able to get our orders in we were told that any food from the sushi bar will take longer and were told to refrain from ordering anything but kitchen items. Once our food was brought to the table, the Sashimi was fresh, the Breaded Crispy Rice was alright, nothing spectacular, and the K-bao was alright but the piece of pork was very thinly cut. The Calamari Bokum was surprisingly devoid of flavor. Not many pieces of calamari and they were obviously frozen pieces. Not worth the triple digit bill or the time. Would steer clear.

    J-bao
    Amanda W.

    Quite expensive for myself. But love a treat for kimbap or korean food. The bao is also very attractive to mee. I ordered a kimbap from here and the J-bao, which is the fried chicken katsu which is very tasty and crispy. The kimbap i got a classic and spicy, and it was super spicy cause serano pepper(i thought it would be jalapeño). We also got korean fried chicken once and it was tasty but the sauces was ok, we had gotten a sweet and spicy and a sweet and chili one. Would loveee if the prices were friendlier. But happy the establishment is here for my cravingss

    Bibimbap and Sushi Combo and K-Ramen
    Sarah Z.

    Came here on a Thursday night on a search for some Korean food -- there's not many Korean restaurants in this part of Brooklyn. Surprisingly, place was quite filled. The place is not that big but big enough to fit about 8-10 tables. Upon arrival, we were warned that their card machine wasn't working so it was all cash or Venmo. Luckily, we had cash. Menu was pretty extensive -- a fusion of Japanese and Korean cuisine. We decided on a bibimbap and sushi combo that came with sushi and miso soup, and the K-ramen (which stands for Korean style ramen). Some other table ordered some meat on a sizzling platter and the aroma filled the restaurant. The bibimbap was good and comparable, if not better, than the bibimbap at BCD Tofu House (largely because of the sauce). Sushi was fresh and good. Miso soup was standard. However, my K-ramen was pretty disappointing. Nothing outstanding about it. A bunch of seafood (shrimp, mussels, octopus) in a bowl of ramen. The ramen broth is similar to kimchi jigae, but not as nearly flavorful. I wouldn't order this again. We also ordered a green tea crepe cake slice for dessert. It was such a tiny piece for $8 and obviously tasted nothing like a Lady M cake. The waitress forgot to charge us for the slice of cake on our bill but we were nice enough to let her know and get the bill adjusted. Place seem like a local, small family business. It was worth a first try but I probably would order other food on their menu if I ever return.

    Jas JOE Iced Tea (NEW)
    Little Miss NY C.

    I went to Slow Loris for the 2nd time yesterday & I had been looking forward to going back after the 1st time! It is a small & busy place with very friendly staff & delicious food. They also have little slow loris toys decorating the restaurant in a cute fashion. The veggie pan-fried gyoza are the best I've ever had! Seared to perfection! My friend had a crunchy salmon roll with avocado that was good & I tried kimbap for the 1st time, which was also good & full of flavor. The only drawback or thing to know about kimbap is that you are meant to eat each slice in 1 bite or the slice will fall apart & the slices are a bit wide, but still very good! I also had a delicious bottled jasmine tea that was unsweetened so 0 calories & it came with funnily shaped ice that looks like it's in the shape of olives or eyeballs, which would make good Halloween ice, my friend pointed out. Anyways, I can't wait to go back again soon!

    Hawaiian Roll
    Alan N.

    During my weekend here, I found time to get out to Brooklyn for the botanic garden and found Slow Loris nearby. I was deciding whether to order one of the Korean options since I've never tried Korean food, but ended up getting the Hawaiian roll which which was well-portioned and popped with a variety of flavor. My friend got the fried rice with chicken and said he really enjoyed it. I also noticed the staff was very friendly. One of the servers bowed to those leaving in the typical Japanese style, which was cool to see. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area. Also, I don't mean to brag, but the photo I took of the fried rice could be mistaken for the cover of a magazine. Definitely one of the best quality photos I've taken.

    Soon Doo Boo Ramen (NEW)
    Sandra L.

    I enjoy the food here. It's the only Korean restaurants and it satisfies the craving. I'm most impressed with the fried seaweed and the recently added kimbap. The tuna kimbap was actually exceptional and I crave that specific dish now. The soups are good but could use more flavor. Will continue coming here

    Sprite, Soju, NY Roll

    The food & service was AMAZINGGG 10 out of 10. The shumai was deep fried and amazing along with the Korean fried chicken wings. The sushi roll was massive but delicious. The space was so intimate.

    Calamari over udon noodles - spicy & tasty
    Lindsey J.

    Such a great find!! Went for dinner around 6:30-7ish last night~ we had no trouble getting a table & the food was delicious. I got the Tuna/Salmon/Yellowtail/White Fish Poke Bowl (subbed white fish for extra yellowtail- major cred they did that for me for no extra charge) which came well presented with all the goodies: arugula, cucumber, avocado (yay), carrot, corn, cherry tomatoes, radish, beets, sesame seeds, white rice (& spicy mayo on the side.) I was stuffed! If you're looking for a legit sushi spot without breaking the bank, look no further. My lovely date who was actually the one who found this restaurant ordered Korean Fried Chicken with the Crispy Honey sauce (you can choose out of 4- the others are soy ginger, sweet chili, & spicy sauce), which he liked so much he said he wants to learn to make it himself! He also got the Calamari Udon which was spicy (as noted) & the bonito flakes on top were moving around when it came to the table (bc of the heat) so it looked like it was alive HA! He says he'd go again just for that dish & it was "well-plated" :P I think my only request would be adding iced coffee drinks to the menu & serving water not in disposable cups :) though my ginger ale did come in a mason jar. Bathroom is well maintained & bonus points for the cute kitty light switch!! xx

    An absolute gem in South Park Slope!…read more We happened to be staying at a friend's place a few blocks away and was looking for something open on the later side with great food. We searched Yelp and came across Konoba Yakitori, and it absolutely hit the spot. My daughter and I loved our entire experience--everything from the food to the local neighborhood vibe to the incredibly friendly, attentive staff. Everything we ordered was fresh, cooked to perfection, and reasonably priced. We had the gyoza, edamame, Hamachi Lover, Ebi Shu Mai, and the $15 Beef Set (three beef skewers), accompanied by hot tea and Ramune. The beef skewers were a highlight--tender meat with seasoning that was spot-on. Warm, welcoming, prompt, and super efficient. The entire staff was friendly and accommodating, and our waiter was extremely helpful in guiding us through the menu. Top-tier service all around. The space is small and cozy with a simple, comfortable design. Seating is a bit tight and close to neighboring tables, but there's nothing wrong with being snug, rght? It gets busy, but customers tend to eat quickly, so even without reservations, the wait moves well. Most importantly, despite it being a intimate spot, we never felt rushed at all. It's simple, which is what makes it amazing. An incredible restaurant all around--I love this place and can't wait to return. Highly recommend!

I loved…read morethe ambiance and decor of the place including their handmade bowls and plates, which are individually made by the owner --wow. To start off, we had the Cheeseburger Dumplings ($12), which was so unique. We've never had something like this and they executed it really well. The dumplings were filled with meat and fried with a skirt. The cheese part was topped over it like a melty dressing, so a delicious and special dish here. Plus, it had a side salad to balance all the grease here. For the entrees, we had to get the udon and shared the Niku Udon ($25) and Salmon Ikura Udon ($30). It was a nice combo between a hot and cold udon. The Niku was your classic udon bowl filled with plenty of beef and a perfectly soft-boiled egg. The broth was sweet and savory for a warm and comforting meal. On the other hand, the salmon udon was quite unique with matcha udon and fresh salmon. There is a dashi to pour and mix into the noodles, which still gave it flavor and the slurp you want in a udon. Both were so great in its own way. Even their ramen also looked great, but I love all noodles. Definitely a great spot to dine near Barclays Center. Love to come back whenever I'm in the area again. The udon dishes are on the pricier side, but they're huge bowls.

Since they have handmade noodles, we ordered the karaage ramen and Niku udon. While the texture of the noodles were great and broth not too salty (which is good), the protein toppings were just OK. The beef in the Niku udon was overcooked so texture was springy and tough. Karaage in the ramen felt greasy and breading hard rather than crispy. Overall, the dishes were just OK for how much they costed. Staff was courteous, interior design was cool, and their bowls are beautifully shaped.
