Food Gallery 32

While en route to another Korean hot dog restaurant, I came across this establishment located in the heart of K-Town Food Gallery 32. It is a food court featuring a variety of vendors offering authentic cultural cuisines and products. The decor can be described as an urban contemporary food hall style, with influences from East Asian street market aesthetics. The venue was exceptionally busy, with no available seats or standing room, which I interpreted as a positive sign of the popularity and quality of their offerings. I ordered a potato and cheese Korean hot dog, which was truly enjoyable. A crisp diced potato outside, with soft melted cheese and flavorful panko. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the food court was well organized and maintained a high standard of cleanliness. I highly recommend this location.

I grab a bite here when I am in a pinch. The decent prices and convenient food options attract mainly young customers. Takes me back to memories of when I ate here with my sister during our college years. There are plenty of food options ranging from kimbap to ramen to burgers to hand-held snacks. Lots of seating on mezzanine level and top floor. Always crowded, hip vibes.

Great spot for food lovers in Manhattan! It’s a vibrant food hall with a variety of Asian cuisine options, from Korean BBQ to bubble tea. The atmosphere is lively and there’s plenty of seating, though it can get quite busy. The food quality is solid, with great flavors and reasonable prices for NYC. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving a mix of delicious Asian dishes all in one place!

Great spot, a lot of variety of Korean food 🥘 🍱 it was a little bit crowed but we found seats at the first floor. We ordered a sampler box and potato k- hotdog from Sweet churros both were soo good, the costumer service here was amazing too👌🏼 We also order Sushi & a poke bowl 🍣 from Roll’n katsu. The roll was good but the bowl wasn’t the best one! I have tried better ones from same price.

Luka’s Joy is a hidden gem inside a Koreatown food mart, serving up insanely good burgers and grilled cheese with non-dairy cheese and vegan bun options. Favorites in order: 🍔 Korean BBQ Joy Slider 🍔 Kimchi Cheesy Joy Slider 🍔 Truffle Joy Slider 🍔 Cheesy Joy Slider 🧀 Truffle Grilled Cheese is super bold (in the best way) 🧀 Kimchi Grilled Cheese with vegan bread was a bit too kimchi-heavy for me, but fans will love it The food’s flavorful and comforting without feeling heavy. Bonus: the non-dairy cheese actually melts, and the place is named after the founder’s son. Also try the half-caf coffee and barley tea. Great for vegan and lactose-free foodies or anyone craving a twist on comfort food. Go early—they sell out! #KoreatownEats #NYCFoodie #HiddenGem #VeganFriendly #LukasJoy

Love our time & lunch at Food Gallery 32. Wish the claw machine floor wasn’t under renovation because my daughter & I love claw machines & kind of went there just for that. It was a cool spot though.

A three floor food court with a variety of restaurants to order from. It was packed and hard to find a seat. The food I tasted was ok. It was reasonably priced. I would go back, but maybe not on a weekend.

me and my friends when here for dinner both nights we were in NYC, after the first night we were hooked. this place has a hugeeee selection, and the food itself is amazing. the portions are huge, and also pretty cheap. i attached the pictures of most of what we ate below, it was truly incredible. really good bang for your buck. though, finding seating is quite difficult, especially if you're in a group, so be weary. the only reason this isn't getting 5 stars is because they have truly disgusting bathrooms. absolutely horrendous bathrooms that clearly haven't been cleaned in days. i hope that changes next time i go

I have been here quite a few times in the last years, because of their churros and taiyaki. Finally last night I went upstairs and had fried chicken. Drumsticks!! They were so great. Korean fried chicken is really something else. The ambiance is cute, the ground floor is very full of vendors but upstairs it's more empty and they play music constantly. They also have claw machines and photo booths. The service was fast each time I bought from vendors, and this time was great as well. Very nice people. I wasn't able to take a picture of my meal this time because I was so hungry I just forgot! lol I will definitely come back.

Food Gallery in NYC offers a wide variety of food options, but unfortunately, the quality just doesn't match up. With so many different stalls and cuisines to choose from, it can be appealing at first, but I found the food to be pretty underwhelming across the board. The place can get quite busy, especially during peak hours, which adds to the hectic vibe. While there's something for everyone, the flavors and freshness just weren't there for me. If you're looking for quantity over quality, you might enjoy it, but if you're after a great meal, I'd suggest looking elsewhere.

My mom actually found this Korean food court spot. So, we had to check it out. There were food stalls mainly on the first floor, and a Korean fried chicken stall on the third floor. There's also seating available on all three floors. The vibe was lively and bustling with people. We perused all the food stalls and settled on ordering their Korean fried chicken, army stew, and bulgogi bibimbap. Each stall provided us with a beeper to let us know when our food was ready for pickup. So, we used that time to find seating. We picked up our food and it was delicious. I loved that I could eat all of these foods under one roof. The army stew was spicy and comforting. I loved the sesame oil and furikake throughout my bibimbap, as well as all the textures from the runny fried egg, carrots, nori, cucumbers, cabbage, and rice. The KFC was crispy and relatively juicy. It could've used more seasoning to it. But, it was pretty good. I've had better KFC in Seoul and in Taipei, but the KFC here still hit the spot. The pickled daikon was delicious and necessary to cut the richness of the KFC. Overall, we'd definitely come back to this spot to try out their other food court stalls. We definitely liked being able to try different Korean foods in one spot. Come and check them out if you're in the Koreatown area.

This place is soooo much fun! A very crowded hall but still navigable. Really good food, a little chaotic but definitely worth the experience. Pretty fast service too.

0 stars. AVOID this place. Food is mediocre at best, prices are marked up because of location. The management here is obnoxious and are NASTY people. Manager has employees acting like bloodhounds looking for people who bring outside food (even if you've bought food from the stalls and giving it business). I used to frequent this place and consistently give it business back in high school but even nostalgia can't compensate with how my recent experiences left a poor taste in my mouth. I understand it's a tourist trap but to all NYC locals, I advise to avoid this place at all costs - you can definitely find better food and service elsewhere in this area.

Salmon and tuna bowl from the back in Food Gallery 32. This was about $20 (a little less) and it was absolutely packed and delicious. Came for lunch, and ended up with a lot of leftovers. The bowl is stacked with fish, vegetables, and the sauce comes on the side. Miso soup also comes on the side. The service is quick, you walk up to the counter and grab your food from there and then find seating on the first or second floor. The ambiance I would describe as a no fuss place. Will be back to try all of the other food stalls. Yum!

Let me start by saying that I am generally not a big fan of food halls/courts that constantly present a challenge in finding available seating. Who wants to deal with that?! But alas, here I was with my sister since I wanted to check out NY's K-Town and we were on the hunt for a quick Korean bite! We decided to get half jampong/half jajangmyun from "Seoul" which was about $20. We were fortunate enough to find two stools fairly quickly (the Gods were on our side!) to enjoy our delicious noodz. Hands down, this was one of the best meals I had in NY and it's because I love Korean-Chinese food and this place did it right! The price was right, the food was terrific, and as long as you can find some where to sit down, the Food Gallery is a great choice for any fan of Korean cuisine. It's basically a food court so there is no table service so remember to get whatever you need (napkins, utensils, water, etc) from the booth you're getting your food from. Bathrooms are on the second floor. It was pretty crowded for a Thursday evening and it is loud and bustling in there!

This is a really cool place! It's intimidating when you first walk in because there's so much going on and so many choices and menus everywhere, but if you take your time and look around you can find something for just about anyone! Ordering is super confusing and I almost walked out because of that. None of the staff is jumping to help with anything, but they'll give you somewhat helpful answers if you ask. I ended up getting two different Korean hot dogs, both of which were great! Each had such an amazing crunch and they were delectably salty. I highly recommend the one rolled in Hot Cheetos though. I would absolutely get it again!

I've never had one of these and I came to the right place to try it for the first time! I got a #5 which is the potato outside with sausage and cheese in the middle. This was recommended by the employee. It's crunchy. Filling. The sausage isn't throughout the center which is odd. Great bite.

Honestly wasn't really impressed by this place, they have a lot of variety but the food itself is okay. I got the jjajangmyeon and sweet and sour chicken (~$20) and it was very average. The chicken was not very good, I almost prefer the frozen orange chicken from Trader Joe's. It might just be what I got though, they do have a lot of different shops with food that is harder to find in the area, like jian bing. If you're coming with a big indecisive group, this could be a great place so everyone gets to try something. Otherwise though, I'd probably just go to a restaurant that specializes in the Korean dish you want if you want better quality.

Nice food at a fair price. Though the seating arrangement and spacing are small, the food definitely makes up for it. If you enjoy Korean fried chicken, red bean buns, and fish cake pastry, this is the place you would want to go. I definitely recommend it for its food. I would show pictures of the food, but I already ate it all, lol

SO many good food options at Food Gallery 32. It's a very popular spot in Koreatown, due to location. Three floors of options to choose from (but the main first floor is where you'll find most of the food). The food variety includes Korean and Chinese. Lots of casual dining options (don't expect white table cloth). Basically, you order at the counter of the establishment of your choosing, you get a boozer alert to take and when your food is ready to go and grab it. It's almost like food court cafeteria style. More options for desserts and boba on second floor. Restrooms on the third floor. More seating on the third floor. I was lucky enough to order Tuna Kimbap from GOCHUJANG and it was SUPERB! The best tuna kimbap I've ever had. They also had other options for snacks and meals there as well fish soup, ddukbboki, tempura, sausages and more. I also ordered from Mama on the first floor. I got the red bean taiyakis and mini custards. DELICIOUS and so perfect for a light sweet treat after my kimbap! Highly recommend and would come back here again. If you're looking for the BTS and Blackpink wall mural - head up to the third floor where there is ample seating and lots of photo ops!

This was my first time visiting this place and I was pleasantly surprised! There were so many options to eat from and I really liked the display foods out that show the sizing of the dishes. I came with a friend and we decided to split a meal out of convenience. This was $14 before tax and it was so delicious! The side dishes were delicious and it was my first time trying their fish cakes. Delicious! We got the mild spicy which was just right! Truly felt happy they had "healthier" food options, it's just chicken, rice, and veggies! 1000% would go back for more! A nice NYC gem

TLDR- it's a food court with some more-unique choices. Gallery 32 is one of the more popular tourist spots in Koreatown, thanks to its variety and location. It has minimal seating, but several tasty and accessible options. That being said, the choices here are food court food-- don't expect sit down quality or that experience. Realistically, you may have to take your food to go and find a place in the surrounding area. On todays visit, I snagged a Korean fried corndog. Not the worst thing I've ever had, and for the novelty it was worth the $5. It only took around 5 minutes as well, and would definitely recommend trying it if you've never had one before.

My favorite vendor at this food court is the taiyaki with red beans. You can see how they are made. Another vendor that I like is Jian Bing Man Chinese crepes. I added pork floss and it definitely add flavor to it. My favorite part is the crunchy filling.

So many different restaurants and a good amount of seating but it's pretty packed! My friends and I got the Korean hotdogs and it hits every time. Would def come back to try the other foods!

Convenient and inexpensive mini food court in ktown. Definitely gets super crowded on weekends and weeknights around dinner time. Not too many seats but turnover is pretty quick so you're probably able to find a seat on one of 3 floors within 10 minutes I'd say. There's a wide variety of Asian foods to get here from different vendors, mostly Korean foods though. There's also different snack vendors at the front to get drinks or small snacks as well. Got the beef gyudon from the vendors from the back. Not bad of a portion for the price.

A GREAT food court to find something for everybody. Especially on a cold day - lots of warm soups. It is really crowded and small since they've crowded so many stores in.

Good place in general with a lot of options to choose from!! I didn't know this food court has 3 levels! Extra seatings can be found on level 3. Don't forget chicken on level 3!!

It makes me sooo nostalgic of my childhood. I love love love coming here. Periodt just.. go and find out yourselves!

Gallery 32 has it all. All kinds of Korean street food to Korean BBQ !! Love all the variety of food they have available at the food court.my favorite was the custard filled fish cakes. The Kim bops and spicy rice cakes and seafood udon was so delicious and satisfying too! Definitely recommend coming here if you want a wide selection of food choices. It's right by herald square in Korean town!

Stopped at Pelicans chicken and tried the chicken sandwich and cheese balls. The food is good and prices are fair. Self service order and go. The place looks old and dirty in the open eating area. Other eating place offer some good dishes.

food gallery is a STAPLE in ktown - i've been going for some quick bites for years now! they have over 10 food vendors which serve a variety of korean cuisine like the iconic korean fried chicken, comforting ox bone soup (seolleongtang), and sweet churros and delimanjoo. they also have some fun social activities you can try out, like a cute little nail art studio, karaoke, and photobooths (i didn't try these out but they looked super fun!) once you place your order, you get a little electronic beeper which will tell you when your food is ready for pick up. nothing took that long, maybe like between 5-15 minutes of ordering and the food was ready. it's a food court so there's a good amount of dining space but you'll likely be eating around other folks. overall, it's a good and chill time. what we ordered (* = my faves): - kimbap + cup of rice cakes (dukbokki) from gochujang - bbq rice bowl with pork from kobeque* - ox bone soup (selleongtang) from hanok* - spicy seafood noodle soup (jjamppong) from noona noodles* - half drumstick & wing combo with soy garlic sauce from pelicana - oreo churro with taro ice cream from sweet churros* honestly i liked everything we got, so my favorites are really the ones i would order again. the spicy seafood noodle soup is ABSOLUTELY worth the money - for $16 you get an extremely large bowl of noodles with heaps of seafood. it tasted so good and fresh too, we took some home for leftovers and it reheated well too. the online reviews of kobeque were kind of meh so i was a bit cautious ordering from there, but i reallyyyy enjoyed that bbq rice bowl. probably the one that i was most excited to go back for a second bite of. other orders for this spot looked SO good too, i def needs try some more dishes in the future! we ordered the ox bone soup for a friend who just got her wisdom teeth taken out, and it was perfect for her! i tried some and legit it was sooo comforting, tastes like something my grandma would make. lastly the churros were so cute in presentation, oreos & taro ice cream are an elite combo and nobody can tell me otherwise :)

I haven't been back to Food Gallery 32 since my early days of college but I'm so glad I did because the quality and taste have gone up since then! The kimbaps were big and fresh, the chicken was crispy and juicy and I honestly don't think we had a single dish that was a miss!

delicious food every time I go here. The service is also pretty good, they give you a buzzer and it goes off when your food is ready, most times doesn't take more than 10 mins. Usually make the trip to go "The gochujang" they specialize in bunsik (korean street food). I usually order the kimbap, and I also recommend their kimmari (fried seaweed rolls) . korean fried chicken and tteokbokki here are also really good.

This is the perfect place to go to if you want to try a variety of authentic Korean food at a decent price in Korea Town. This food court has 3 levels of seating with a lot of stalls with a wide variety of food from Korean BBQ to Korean Fried Rice. You are bound to find something for everyone. There is also sushi, ramen, fried rice for those who don't want Korean food. We got a dish each from different stalls and tried them. You also have dessert and bubble tea! The downside to this place is that it tends to be very crowded most of the time, especially on the first floor. You will however be able to find seating on the upper floors. They give you a beeper that lets you know when your order is ready and you can go down and pick it up. The rest room is not that great.

Whatever you do, do not get the soondae (blood pork sausage) at the boonshik spot. I am a huuuuge soondae + tteokbokki lover but damn, this was so disappointing. Sad to say it wasn't actually the worst soondae I've had, but was pretty close. It had this weird taste like .... of old books? halfway into eating it I realized... is that mold? Gross af. To top it all off, the set for tteokbokki + soondae was a whopping $18 something! So expensive, not worth it. The tteokbokki is decent, its the soupy kind if you like that. AGAIN DO NOT GET THE SOONDAE. I'm still looking for a good one in the city :'(

It has a decent food selection in a well thought out space. I can't blame the quality of the food on them specifically so this won't be that kind of review. However, I would recommend that there are clearer signs of where the restrooms are and where to return dirty trays. It's a little confusing and odd when I realize I have to go into a room to drop off a tray. Also, it's hard to tell who's an attendant for the food hall in general. Following, there's a few karaoke rooms upstairs. The last time I tried to go there was a huge line. That makes me feel that there isn't an enforced time limit to the rooms, if any. I'd recommend this place if you want to try Asian cuisines and have some time to kill between activities. As always thank you for the service and may God bless this establishment.

Decent food option but honestly there is so much better for the price. Also seating was terrible and so hard to find. The place at 6pm was packed to the point you could barely move. Also, with such high turnover the tables were not cleaned. I didn't enjoy the experience at all. I'd recommend take away if you must get from a food place inside. If not, check out some of the other awesome restaurants in the area.

If you want to have more options and don't wanna pay big bucks to dine in around ktown, food gallery is the place to go I checked off my jjajangmyeon and tangsuyuk (chicken pieces) cravings at the Chinese-Korean food stall while my mom went for the seafood noodle soup. There was quite a wait for the food, maybe because it was Saturday evening but we did get a table while waiting. Serving size is decent, it was enough to satisfy me. Mine was on the sweet end while the seafood noodle soup was on the salty end. Although there was an abundance of ingredients in the noodle soup, do not recommended as it gets saltier with every bite and noodles absorb the saltiness too. The sweet and sour chicken for the tangsukyuk has a good amount of meat to it - well worth price point but nothing phenomenal

Lots of mainly Korean food options to choose from (its a food court). The jjamppong was the best in my opinion and packed with seafood. Definitely better than the hmart food court jjamppong. The kimpap place by the entrance on the left wasn't too bad. I would get it with the teokbokki because it was a little dry. Good luck finding seating inside though....

Easy spot to grab an assortment of Korean (and other Asian) dishes! It was crowded on a Thursday during lunchtime, but we just grabbed kimbap and corndogs from Gochujang as our post-bus ride meal. The bathrooms are located at the top, and there are plenty of additional seating on the top 2 levels so don't fret if you can't find seating on the first main floor.

I drink POCARI SWEAT once a year to torture myself to teach self respect. LMFAO it tastes so bad but it's nostalgic for me. Anyways this photo has food from all over the vendors from the food court so you get a good idea of what it's like. Also miss sunshine nails there is my WORLD! the coin karaoke uostairs is also fire. $10 for 30 mins, better then when I rent out rooms in flushing and it's quick and on the go. I lowkey wanna go in summer when I'm missing Xmas music. Is that too freak? Lol. Anyways look at my nails in the photo they're so cute.

This used to be a great place where we would have been able to find tasty & authentic Korean street foods when the concept of " food court" was still new to Manhattan. Gone with the diverse choices of food vendors. The place is disorganized with unsanitary bathrooms. There was no obvious sign of putting away used trays that I asked one of the lady working at the counter. Her answer? Don't know. Thought she did not understand what I asked for & repeated the question. Same " none of my business " answer as the trays were not from her shop. The " gimbab" was disastrous with dry & old rice mixed with similarly dried /tasteless bulgogi & wilted vegetables under the name of " signature gimbab." DO NOT RECOMMEND to order the tasteless gimbab! Their "teukbokki" was edible , however. I also tried the " chajangmyon" from another vendor, which was okay if not satisfactory. There are plenty of other options of food courts in Manhattan, old and new. AVOID this particular one.

Great little spot to get a variety of different foods! I got cowboy ramen at Noona Noodles and it was so comforting and tasty with the pepper jack cheese, the sliced beef, and sunny side up egg. The portion size was quite hefty, but it was delicious so I chowed it down. There are definitely a few shops here that are a hit or miss, so read your reviews! Noona Noodles is great though! Also, I love that they have a mini photo booth, karaoke rooms, and a cute nail shop upstairs!

I'll be back because there were some thing I liked. I liked the spicy kimchi better than I did the beef.

This was such a unique experience! If you are ever in NYC and are looking for options, this place has them! It's a 3-story food court with a wide variety of restaurants to try. Anything from dinner, desert or drinks, they have it all! The seating area is relatively large, we went late at night, but I'd imagine you'd have a hard time finding somewhere to sit during peak hours. I had the bulgogi ramen from Noona Noodles and it was amazing. The broth was loaded with flavor and a variety of vegetables. This is somewhere you can visit multiple times to try a variety of fusion dishes. This is definitely a place I would recommend checking out to anyone who's going to be in the area!

Love the concept and all the yummy options! You definitely won't leave hungry, I recommend trying a little bit from everywhere. My favorite is the Nutella walnut cake and the bbq curry bowl!

Has always been a my favorite spot to go to for Korean food. The food always tastes good. Tried their California rolls yesterday and had to be the best California rolls I've tasted. There's ALOT of food for the price depending on which vendor you go to. There is a lot of seating despite it being crowded and gets cleaned right away.

Food Gallery 32 is a two floor food court. The options here are meh. It seems like every stall sells the same stuff. I stopped by the stall named Seoul and I was disappointed. Food was meh. I was sitting upstairs and I noticed that there is a popular Korean fried chicken place that seems to be the only stall that looks promising delicious. Next time for sure. The food court is super busy anytime. Most of the food here are Asian/Korean food. But some are not authentic Korean food.

I love the food here there is always so many different things to try every time. When you go there it's often packed but they have a 3rd floor with more seating and quarter karaoke (that isn't a quarter lol). I come here all the time and definitely recommend it alllll the way. Get the taiyaki!

I love coming to Roll' n Katsu! Its for my quick japanese food cravings. Food are made to order. I had tofu teriyaki bowl a couple of times dine in and take out. I love their spider roll, bigbang roll, caterpillar roll and takoyaki. Yesterday we tried the Pork katsu with omelet rice. Loved every thing. Looking forward for our weekend luncheon visit here. We also love the Hanok Korea House. Our favorites here are the Kalbi tang (short rib beef soup) and the Selleongtang (Mild/Ox bone broth with beef brisket). Very clean taste perfect for cold weather. We had it dine in and to go. For to go it holds the temperature for an hour still hot. You guys need to try.

Multi-level food court in the heart of korea town! If you don't want to pay premium or wait in long queues, this place would be the easy option. There are several vendors inside and seating areas available. Staff come around to wipe down tables but you are expected to dispose your finished plates yourself. I've dined here twice and have not been disappointed.

Super crowded and busy but the staff makes an effort to clean tables as fast as possible. It's a pretty small space for so many restaurants but there's an alright amount of seating. You definitely have to scavenge for a seat but people come and go so quickly that you can find a seat (but you'll probably share a table with strangers). The buns were good, I definitely recommend them. The spicy pork Bulgogi bowl was yummy as heck and the soup was good too. The tempura shrimp and fried potstickers were okay but nothing notable. Overall, some hits some misses.

It's my third time visited Food Gallery 32. Busy and noisy. That's the feeling I have every time I visited. Three levels of seating space. The only inconvenient part is the restroom is located at the third floor. A lot of Korean food in this food court. I personally like the Taiyaki dessert place which located right in the front. Price is not so cheap tho. Usually I spent around $20 bucks. The smell inside is another downside. But it makes sense as there are so many shops inside.

This food court came in handy. Especially because we were virtually staying directly next door to them. Got to try a few dishes at their restaurants and they were delicious. The bun , churro, and bbq beef spots were my favorites. They also stayed open pretty late so they were perfect for grabbing a drink- both adult beverages and non alcoholic!

this place is a gem lowkey. it has many restaurants tucked in one place. it gets really busy so it might be hard to find a place to sit at. not sure where i ordered from but it was in the back. kind lady and man. fire ahh food. ended up coming for a second plate the following day. bless them, and it was only $11. every bite was heaven on earth for me. the place is lit. it even has a third floor that has a photo booth. i love those. beware though, your clothes will definitely smell after being in there for a while. worth it. (february 2023)

I didn't try all of the food just some but of the food I tasted the fish cakes were really tasty. The service was a bit slow but there were only two workers. The place is usually crowded so good for a friendly chat.

There are many fun eats at the Food Gallery in Ktown, but this bibimbop was not it. First of all, the size was WAY TOO BIG, oh my gosh, the dish was bigger than my head and while they really gave you a lot of veggies, it felt like I had to dig through the bowl to mix and eat everything and it just wasn't that good. I didn't even finish half of it when I gave up and decided to order something else.
