Perched on the 39th floor of a K-Town skyscraper, Gaonnuri offers a chic ambiance paired with stunning skyline views and a modern twist on Korean barbecue.
"On the 39th floor of a building in Koreatown, Gaonnuri serves nicely marinated cuts of sirloin and pork neck that you can cook at your table with the whole city at your feet. All the meats are good, but we’re partial to the deeply marinated galbi and the pork belly appetizer. You can find similar or even better KBBQ down at street level for a third of the price, but a sky tax should be expected. Ideally, you’re either here celebrating a special occasion, or you have an expense account. Just keep in mind that you can only reserve a table right by the windows if you do their tasting menu." - neha talreja, bryan kim, carina finn koeppicus, hannah albertine

"This penthouse Korean restaurant is graced with a prime panoramic view of the Midtown skyline while its Korean barbecue selections are just as high-level. Yes, the menu feels a little pricey but the overall ambience is quite refined." - Eater Staff
"Korean BBQ in the sky. What will they think of next? We wish we were talking about a new airline that lets you grill meat as the smoke gets sucked into an air filtration system, but we’re actually referring to Gaonurri, a “penthouse KBBQ” spot on 32nd Street. On the 39th floor of a building in Koreatown, you can get nicely marinated cuts of sirloin and pork neck cooked at your table with the whole city at your feet. All the meats are good, but we’re partial to the deeply-marinated galbi and the pork belly appetizer that comes with some especially fresh raw oysters. For some extra decadence, get the glistening lobster kimchi fried rice. You can find similar or even better KBBQ down at street level for a third of the price—but a sky tax should be expected.
