The Kunjip | Korean BBQ NYC

Korean barbecue restaurant · Midtown West

@infatuation

"Open 24/7 in the heart of Koreatown, Kunjip fuels workday lunch catch-ups, late-night cravings, and morning hangovers with stir-fry platters, grilled meats, and soups. Their banchan, consistent around the clock, is veggie-focused and prepared with a decidedly lighter hand. Their red potato salad with apple chunks and black raisins wears a light coverage of Kewpie mayo dressing. The napa cabbage kimchi is watered down and lightly spicy but not underwhelmingly so, something that can’t be said about Squid Game’s diluted English subtitles. Every table also receives a bubbling cauldron of gyeran jjim (steamed egg custard) - it’s big enough to share, although some might beg to differ. I overheard a woman at Kunjip try to argue her way into getting two bowls for her and her husband. Her exact words to the waiter were, “You forgot to give us one more.”" - justine lee 6
