    I should've known better than to get fried items :( but I will definitely come back to try other items. They have a large variety of Korean food at a reasonable price. You get an 8% discount if you pay w cash. I wouldn't recommend getting shrimp tempura roll w spicy mayo sauce. The shrimp tempura wasn't crispy so it kind of defeats the purpose of tempura.... The fried chicken w spicy mayo wasn't crispy either but was still good. The pieces of chicken were big and it wasn't dry!!

    Came to Woorijip for a quick dinner with friends. It's a Korean marketplace that has a variety of meal sets and lunch boxes, making it perfect for a quick grab-and-go meal. They had a wide selection of Korean dishes including soups, sides, and other ready-to-eat options. There is also seating inside if you want to dine in. It can get pretty busy, but the line moves quickly and it's a great spot for affordable and convenient Korean food.

    This Koreatown cheap eats marketplace was my go to during college. However, not sure if my taste buds evolved too much, or their products are not what they use to be, I felt underwhelmed by recent visit. The kimbap was not bad, but I felt the rice was a bit too mushy. Same issue with the eel and the SPAM versions. Add on the fact that the prices are much higher and no longer considered cheap eats, I will unlikely be coming back here any more.

    Had lunch at Woorijip on a weekday while running errands nearby. It is located on 32nd Street in the heart of Koreatown and functions as a cafeteria-style, self-serve spot where you pick from prepackaged dishes, pay, and then sit either in the front or back. There were quite a few options, though not many that were vegetarian-friendly. I chose three items: the soft tofu stew with beef ($5.50), which was filling and very good and a bit spicy. There were a few soup options kept warm in a heated case. I also tried the pork buns ($5), which were just okay, mostly dough with minimal filling and not very warm. Lastly, I had the honey soy garlic chicken strips ($8), which were quite filling, and flavorful with a hint of sweet. and I ended up taking some home. Overall, this is a quick and convenient lunch or dinner option. It is nice to be able to see everything and mix and match different dishes. I would recommend it if you are in the area and want something fast and affordable.

    Located in Koreatown 32nd St. Went on a weeknight and it was very busy. There is seating by the entrance and more seating in the back, kind of cramped. Not for sitting long to eat so just waited a little bit to get a table. Fast, casual. 8% cash discount. The shelves and cashiers are in the center of the space. Packed food from soups, sides, single food items (good for sharing) to individual meals. White or purple rice $2.50 for a small container. Beverage section next to the cashiers. Wouldn't mind having the spicy tuna salad roll, and wildrice roll with crabmeat again - @$5.50 each, good bite-sized and tasty. Also the steamed fish with ginger which we had with purple rice. The white fish filet jeon was eggy and ok. The fried anchovies were too sweet. Tiny restroom available, need the key from the cashier.

    If you're craving Korean food and don't feel like cooking, Woorijip is one of my favorite spots. It's basically a Korean takeout counter where everything is already made fresh and ready to grab. You can get bibimbap, kimbap, mandu, and a bunch of other classic Korean dishes, then just heat them up and eat. I used to go to H Mart for prepared food, but Woorijip actually has a wider selection of ready-made meals and everything tastes really fresh. It's also super affordable. If you're having friends over or hosting something at your place, this is such an easy move. Just grab a few different dishes, put them out, and it feels like you ordered a whole Korean spread. Definitely recommend.

    Woorijip is located on 32nd St, right in k-town in New York, NY. Since 2000, Woorijip has been serving homestyle Korean meals. When you walk in, you'll see tables, registers, drinks, and multiple metal shelf units and tables filled with pre-packaged korean bites, both hot and cold. The vast selection of prepared meals displayed throughout the restaurant is all clearly labeled and includes classic korean dishes like spicy gochujang chicken, vegetable japchae, kimchi fried rice, grilled tofu​, beef bulgogi japchae, japanese style fried chicken, a variety of lunchboxes, kimbap, korean pancake "jeon", and side dishes "banchan," and more. Choose what you want and pay at the counter. At checkout, the staff will ask if you are taking it to go or dining in. If you are dining in, the staff will put your food on a tray and apply a red sticker. There is also a microwave to warm up dishes if you prefer. There is a cash discount compared to paying with credit cards. On two different occasions, I was in a rush so I came in to have a quick bite. There were always tables available for me to sit and enjoy my purchases. I've had the Beef Bulgogi Roll and Pan Fried Kimchi, Beef Bulgogi Japchae and Pan Fried Spicy Fish Cake. Of course, a sit down restaurant will be fresher and may have better flavor, but this comparable and still tasted really good. It is definitely convenient, good value, and relatively inexpensive.

    Woorijip has been around for a long time and I like that they offer prepackaged food that is more meant for you to grab and go. Last time I stopped by was years ago, but I stopped by the other day to grab something quick before catching a train. The interior of this place is nice and simple, with a bunch of tables set up if you wish to dine in. They have a bunch of prepackaged meals on display and there's a lot to choose from. I saw stuff like kimbap, fried pork cutlet w/ curry, and even prepackaged soups like sundubu-jjigae. Everything looked very good. Unfortunately, I concluded that most items were very expensive. I settled on a package of bulgogi kimbap ($12) and a small container of jjajjangmyun ($5.50). I saw that they offer a 8% discount for using cash, so I paid in cash. Total was about $17.58. The young lady cashier was very nice, so bonus points on the customer service front. I had the kimbap when I got home and I was pleased. It tasted pretty fresh and the kimbap was tasty / satisfying, so no complaints. I reheated the jjajjangmyun in the microwave and it was also pretty satisfying. The jjajjang sauce tasted pretty legit. The noodle quality wasn't the best but it was serviceable. So my experience with Woorijip was pretty good, but I can't help feeling dissatisfied with the pricing. From reviews that other Yelp friends have posted, it seems I'm not the only one who think they're too high. But otherwise, glad this place exists for casual korean food eating in the area.

    My favorite restaurant in Koreatown! Trust me. NOTE: Closed on Sundays. If paying with cash, there's a discount. Thought I wrote a review for Woorijip years ago, but I guess not or it disappeared. Literally have been going here since 2003! After seeing a co-worker holding a package for lunch that looked like a giant sushi roll & her complaining that someone put it in the fridge the night before, it hardened the rice & since everything's cooked, she was upset. (do your research, not sure if kimbap needs or doesn't need refrigeration). This was the first time I've seen cooked sushi & heard about Korean Food. Searching for affordable food around Macy's/34th Street Herald Square, a Time Out NY or Village Voice listing mentioned Woorijip. The next time I was in the area, I walked down the long block of 32nd street & came across their homey blue awning with an even homier logo. At the restaurant was a buffet (with food consistently coming out of the kitchen AND that packaged kimbap), since post-pandemic they strictly operate with pre-packaged items now. Have eaten at different sit-down restaurants in Koreatown and still think Woorijip's flavors wins (even from the buffet to its current iteration). I recommend: - Sweet & Sour Chicken or Pork (the Chinese-Korean version of Chinese Sweet & Pungent Pork; or the Chinese-American Sweet & Sour Chicken) - Get the Japchae! Potato flour glass noodles. Either veggie or with beef is fine. Just - get - it. Under $10! for a nice side to share. - Cold Ban Chan (sides): Sautéed Kale "cold salad", Sautéed Spinach. Never thought I would eat cold sautéed leafy greens, but the soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil marinade (with some sesame seeds and Korean chili powder) makes them amazing. & shiitake mushroom ban chan. - Tteok-bokki: Rice flour gnocchi in a spicy tomato-vodka like sauce. Has anchovy elements in the sauce & thin fish meatball "triangles." The sauce doesn't compare to other dishes that I've tried! This is actually my baseline (& the Japchae) for Korean dishes. - Any of the Kimbap (ie. cooked sushi rolls). I like the Beef bulgolgi. - The mixed Jeon (egg omelettes): there's lots of options with zucchini, imitation crab meat, kimchi. Some that are "eggless," not sure what the main ingredient is - potato flour? - I used to get the Bibimbap alot. The ingredients were so fresh (especially during the summer) & different than some restaurants' bibimbap bowls: shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced squash, spinach, mung beans... The gochujang pepper paste sauce also has good flavor (not too spicy, not too anchovy). I mean, all of it is good - kimchi fried rice with an egg on it ... if you pick an entree that comes with a free rice, get the mixed-grain black rice! Recently got off NJ Transit & made my walk over for comforting food that I would cure my winter travels. A big container of Beef Shank Bone Broth Soup (discovered potato noodles in it, slices of daikon, slivers of egg omelette) + free rice. It healed me. One item that I'm not a fan of is the Black Bean Noodle, they use a spaghetti-like noodle with the dark soybean sauce. The noodles aren't traditional, and the flavor is a little bland. Woorijip used to have a lot more snacks & homemade rice flour & tapioca treats near the counter. Maybe they sell out quickly or have them only around the holidays. Vividly remember a square-shaped brownie-like pumpkin-flavored rice flour treat with layers of bean paste & seeds that I haven't found again. Everything's so affordable (entrees under $15). You'll find college kids huddled around tables drinking makeolli, soju, & beer (the staff does check for ID & loitering throughout the night). Lots of workers in the area during lunch or picking up for dinner, tourists, Korean aunties... Woorijip used to have a rewards card with unique Korean prizes from packages of Gim (seaweed) to Tofu Stew clay pots (many stamped cards). I redeemed cards for a jar of Korean citron honey for citron tea once. The atmosphere is very casual, high tables & stools; kind of canteen-like. All of the food are in to-go containers with microwaves available to heat things up. Since they don't have the buffet anymore, I usually take the food to go and reheat it at home. Thank you Woorijip!

    I have been going here for years and I love this place! Whenever I make time, this is one of my steps. The food is consistently good service is simple. You bring up your food to the register and you pay. They are pleasant and the ambience is basically you feel like you're a Korean cafeteria. They have some large jugs and vases for cultural aesthetic by come here for the food that is consistently good and fresh! You can't go wrong.

    Came here twice in one week. It's busy but the line moved fast, and I haven't had any trouble finding a place to sit. They keep the place nice and clean. I enjoyed everything but the fried chicken (too dry and bready). The beef japchae was okay. The crabmeat jeon, seafood mixed vegetables, and kimbap options were all great. This is a great option to grab a quick dinner when you are not feeling a salad.

    Michele G.

    Quick grab and go place for Korean food. Large location with tons of options already pre made. Good Selection and variety. There is also space to sit down if want to eat in restaurant or take to go. Really good quality and enjoy

    Nafisa H.

    This is a great convenient grab and go approach for Korean food. Everything is already premade and set out. They have noodles, banchan, rice, miso, and other Korean staples. It's a really easy way to sample a variety of Korean dishes. It's setup like a cafeteria and you grab a tray and pick out what you like. When I went Friday night it was pretty loud but pretty par for the course in ktown on a weekend night. There's seating but it can get packed pretty fast.

    Is dine in possible?

    Yes. There's limited seating. Depending on the time, the area fills up quickly.

    Calories of the items?

    Honestly, I don't remember seeing calories. They only had food labels with what the item was.

    Yea but discounts with cash

    How does the buffet work? It is not on the menu.

    They used to have food by the lb. They're not currently offering that. Only prepackaged food.

    Do they sell beer here by the pack? What's the average price?

    They do have beer and other alcohol. You could buy by pack or single but not sure what the price is.

    Do they use any nuts/nut products in the kitchen? My friend has a severe allergy and I need to know if it's safe for him to eat here.

    Yes

    Do they still serve jokbal (pig's feet)? Edit: something I forgot to ask: how much?

    Yes we do!

    Do they accept Amex credit card?

    Yes they do!

    Anyone know when they usually put out the half off food? I've been going lately and it been…

    What time do they close the buffet in the afternoon?

    Lunch buffet closes at 3:30pm.

    Do they have meat jun?

    We do not have it this week but our menu normally changes every Wednesday so it would be best to call us and check.

    Not just take out. They have tables and chairs. Self service.

    Is the porridge hot?

    It is usually room temp but you can ask them to warm it up

The effortless tranquility encourages you to slow down, enjoy the food, and get away from the everyday, hubbub. Their menu leans into fusion dishes with a nod to some of the classic home-style classics. Everything is presented with a refined, elevated touch. Here's what we ordered: ~ Tako Wasabi - 5/5 stars A fiery delight. This appetizer feartures chopped raw octopus marinated in wasabi. It has a lively zest from the wasabi and is topped with tobiko, which adds a pleasant contrast in texture. ~ Honey Makgeolli - 4/5 stars A traditional fermented Korean beverage that is light and pairs brilliantly with your meal. It is a cloudy alcholoic drink served in a metal teapot, and surprisingly, there is much more in that teapot than you would expect. It easily provides six to eight generous pours. The flavor is subtly sweet with a pleasant tang. ~ Temaki Set - 4/5 stars You can order a set of three by choosing from selections 1-17, or you can order a la carte at the listed prices. Some of the temaki stood out more than others. Our two sets included marinated salmon, bluefin tuna, spicy yellowtail, spicy bluefin, and two dynamite temaki. ~ Spicky Pork Ssam Set - 5/5 stars Truly another standout entree that even surpassed my beloved grilled BBQ bossam. You received a generous basket of assorte greens, including romaine, kale, perilla leaves, dandelion leaves, nappa cabbage, and more. It is well worth the price and makes for a fun, interactive dining experience with your family and friends. There is also various banchan offered and this time, they were beyond kind enough to offer refills. The last time we were here, we ordered just as much food and they stated they normally did not offer refills, which I thought was very odd. With its casual bougie aesthetics, this spot has quickly become one of my favorite eateries in Fort Lee-lee, It beautifully blends Korean, Japanese, and American flavors in a way that feels both comforting and elevated. Needless to say, we will be back!

My friends and I got the Spicy Raw Marinated Crab, Kimchi Pancake, Galbi, and Spicy Grilled Pork Japchae. I LOVED the Kimchi Pancake! Probably the best one I have ever had. It was so crunchy, tasty, and filled with kimchi. I find that some places skimp out on the kimchi and add a lot of onions instead, but not here. The poached egg on top also served its purpose well and added a great flavor to the pancake. I really liked the Galbi too. It tasted like a high quality of meat and it was super tender. My only wish is that I wanted it to have more of a char, but not a big deal. I tried a bit of the Spicy Grilled Pork Japchae and I was pleasantly surprised at the taste. I enjoyed the japchae and grilled pork more than I thought I would. My friend thought the dish tasted a bit Vietnamese, but I think it was because of the toppings inside? While I did not try the Spicy Raw Marinated Crab, my friends really liked it. We also got complimentary barchan which was amazing! I love their steamed egg and kimchi. This was by far my best meal in NYC. I loved all the food I ate, which is surprising because Korean food is not one of my favorite cuisines. The banchan was especially great too.

And when we wanted to order more food, at the 45 minute mark, they had to "check if there was time left" on our reservation. I understand they're very busy and have bookings, but it was only about 45 minutes in. Anyways, the experience itself was great. They cooked all our food for us and everything was great quality. Banchans were refreshed and refilled - sometimes without being asked. We were very well taken care of. The pancake was good as well as the tartare. HIghlight was definitely the meat and banchans though. We all got ice cream at the end and birthday boy even got a candle in his with some sprinkles. Super cute and very nice of them.

    Got the fried chicken and it's literally a whole chicken deep fried (which usually ends up dry, but…read morethis was not, it was so tender) that they chop up in front of you -- comes with a slaw, jalapeño pickled radish, a gochujang sauce and soy garlic sauce. The slaw was good. The radish had a bit too much a jalepeno taste from what I was used to. Impressive looking dish! Was pretty good! The kimchi fried rice with steak - it's like 5 slices of steak but it's so good. Fried egg too. I finished that whole thing so fast. I can't even lie, it was so good. I could see myself getting this again. Vibes are immaculate, the service was good with my glass never getting empty. They have a max sit time of an hour and 45 minutes. Kinda pricy but def has the vibes and decent upscale-type Korean food!

    Vibes of the place are nice!! Food is standard Korean food, nothing extraordinary. Had a lot of…read moredrink options - Soy & garlic wings: 10/10, flavor is great, and wings were juicy - Sweet potato fries: 8/10, gigantic thick fries. Good but I prefer my fries thinner. Sauce was meh - Seafood rose tteokbokki: 8/10, super creamy, but wish there was more rice cake. Lots of seafood!! Bb.q Chicken's rose tteokbokki is better imo - Pork shank: 9/10, really tender and juicy meat that fell off the bone. Hella pricey tho (-1 point) - Kimchi fried rice w/ prime hanger steak: 6/10, just okay. Not a huge fan of the fried rice, the steak was good, medium rare - Espresso martini: 8/10, really strong lol

    Tomorrow will be our last day in New York. We had plans to head up to the Empire State Building…read moreObservatory in the evening, so we stopped here for a quick simple dinner with just one hour to spare. We ordered marbled beef steak and naengmyeon, hoping for a speedy meal. Surprisingly, the beef, cold noodles and banchan all blew us away. The marbled beef was outstanding, and our server grilled it perfectly -- it melted in our mouth. Their mushroom sauce was absolutely fantastic. The broth for the buckwheat cold naengmyeon was authentic beef stock, rich and savory without overpowering the natural flavor of the ingredients. The banchan were also incredibly well-made; we finished nearly every side dish on the table. Service was quick and efficient too. It's such a shame we only discovered this restaurant on our final day, we wish we'd come here earlier. I'd highly recommend this spot. Overall rating: 4.5 to 5 out of 5 stars.

    I highly enjoyed the food at Jeong Yuk Jeom. I ordered the chicken katsu, and I would highly…read morerecommend it as someone who frequents katsu restaurants. It's extremely crispy and very high quality. A large issue I had at this establishment was the service. The server felt unfriendly, and whenever we tried to flag him down, he wouldn't even look at us. It took around 20 minutes after our meal to get our check which was ridiculous. It was a shame because this was easily one of my favorite meals in NYC, but I don't know if I would return solely due to the service.

    Tried this spot for Restaurant Week and had a great experience. The $60 three course menu is a…read morereally good value. You get to choose three appetizers, two mains, and one dessert, so it's a great way to try a variety of dishes, especially if you're sharing. The service was friendly and attentive, even though the restaurant was pretty busy. We did have to wait about 20 minutes past our reservation before being seated, but everything went smoothly after that. The restaurant is beautiful inside- liked the interior design choices a lot! My favorite dishes were the asparagus japchae, lotus root gangjeong, and the Korean melon dessert. Overall really enjoyed the meal and would definitely come back to try the regular menu.

    Solid Korean spot with a calm, dim interior. We made res for restaurant week as a group of 6, which…read moreallowed us to try a little of everything on their menu. What I got: - Asparagus Japchae: Very good - instead of traditional Japchae noodles, it's sliced asparagus and mushroom. The marinate was delish! - Shrimp Pancake: It was more like an omelette. Not so much of the actual pancake batter. - Spicy Fried Chicken: Nicely fried, standard. The spicy sauce is on the side, which allows us to adjust our bite. - Bossam: I enjoyed this! More Bossam pieces than lettuce, but overall taste of the meat was good. It didn't have the "bland pork" taste. - Pyongyang Cold Noodle: This was my first time having this dish. Seemed pretty traditional. The broth was on the lighter end for me. - Korean Melon: LOVEDD this dessert! A refreshing way to end the meal. The menu denotes cheese, but it wasn't even noticeable. It has a few toasted pine nuts mixed in, which were SOO good. Overall, a very filling meal and worth the $60 restaurant week value! Nothing absolutely blew me away, BUT the flavors were solid and the staff were great. Would come back for another deal!
