Narrow Street 512

this is by far my favorite place in the hmart food court. i highly recommend the spicy fried pork udon. its the perfect level of spicy and the pork is delicious. the portion size is perfect but slightly on the pricey end for how much meat you get. will always come here and get the same dish tho! service is friendly and fast. lots of seating the food court but can get easily crowded during busy hours.

Ordered spicy fried squid with udon and it was awful. The noodles were plain with barely any spice to speak of. And it had an odd fishy aftertaste that threw everything off. Definitely not something I’d go back for.

Great food! I’ve never been to Korea but this is some of the most authentic food I tasted. The beef stew is so soothing and warm, even in Texas warm summer, it has some healing effects. The other dishes look great! Super recommended! Probably the best kiosk in the food court!

If you’re a meat lover you gonna try here. Meat dish is loaded with meat that I can’t finish. Thin sliced beef brisket is mild but not bland. Lightly seasoned and stir fried, this one is a kind of healthy choice at the food court. Beef rib soup is good. The broth is the best. The beef rib is tender and full of beef flavor. I dipped it in soy sauce, and I couldn’t stop eating it. Bibibam was the best I ever had. The only one I think is not that good is raw skate noodle. The noodles were stick together and hard to mix. I also didn’t enjoy the ice in it. After all it’s still a nice place to have some Korean food with limited budget. The price is not low but considering the quality and potion, it worth your every penny.

I found this great Korean place in H-Mart! The food is so yummy and feels just like the real thing. The people working there are really nice, and they give you a big serving of food for a good price. They also make it pretty quickly. It's a great deal – delicious food, lots of it, and it won't cost you too much. I highly recommend trying it!"

I’m obsessed with narrow street. The spicy pork and squid A4. It’s packed full of veggies and flavor. We drive from south austin and make a day of it and I ALWAYS eat here. The service is fast and the food is fresshhhhh. The price may seem like a lot but the portions can feed two people or be 2-3 meals for one person.

Narrow Street 512 is one of my favorite food court stands in Austin. I discovered the shop on Uber Eats and have been going back to them bc the food is delicious! The food stand is located inside the H Mart food court, so they don’t have private seating space but there’s a large open seating areas in the food court where you can easily snag a spot even during dinner hours. There’s always nice AC so you could dine there comfortably even during the summer times. The staff are ok and they always make sure they get the order items right. I was there last night and she even walked to our bar seats to double check we were going to dine in the food court, not take out. Some of my favorite dishes from this place are special noodles and beef rib soups. The only reason I’m leaving one star out is bc the prices are a little bit high considering the cost of living of TX. Would definitely give 5/5 for the food though.

Price on a higher side but good food. The soups I tried were super hearty. I love their cold noodles, too (perfect for this crazy hot weather) but they can be spicy. Grilled meats are a little sweet for my taste.

We just luv Narrow St. We thoroughly enjoy all their offerings. My seafood bowl fed me to a full filling level twice. The broth was better the 2nd day. You can easily split and entrees. But there is no fun in that! Ask for extra spice/heat on the side.

There is never a wrong choice when it comes to getting a meal from Narrow Street. The prices are amazing for the amount of food you get and the side dishes are so flavorful. My favorite thing to get here depends on the season but it's either their naemyung(cold noodles in a vinegar broth with veggies and meat), or the hangover soup. Their sizzling hot plates are good don't get me wrong but their soups are a nice warm(or cold) hug. The hangover soup has huge chunks of meat that fall off of the bone. It's so tender and has such a rich flavor. There are chives, perilla leaf(I think), and kimchi in there that are also super tasty. Would definitely recommend coming here and giving them a try next time you're shopping at HMART

Came for a quick dinner because one of us was really craving hot kimchi soup. We found what we were looking for and more! We opted for the kimchi soup and the vegetarian stir-fried udon. The seasoning for the kimchi stew was a bit on the heavier side, but overall, it was an okay stew--definitely a top option on a cold night! The vegetarian udon came out on a pretty big plate and was hearty too! The flavor was decent, and it was just a nice vegetarian option to have. We also ordered two sides of kimchi for $1 each. It's a pretty affordable price, but unfortunately, the kimchi wasn't what we expected--it wasn't really spicy, nor did it pack the fermented taste we usually expect from kimchi. The sitting area is set up pretty nicely, a good place for groups of friends to try different dishes together!

Hands down the best spicy pork bulgogi in town, but beef rib soup(갈비탕) is really hit or miss. The broth is always decent but the beef is tough and a bit blend sometimes. Also, they don't give you the dipping sauce here for the beef rib soup unless you ask for it, which is very weird. In Korea, the soy sauce+wasabi based dipping sauce always comes with Beef rib soup cause it can really elevate the flavor of the beef.

The Beef Rib soup here is superior to all others except for the homemade ones by family who are top chefs. The staff is nice and do their best to serve the dishes promptly. It's the Hmart food court and it's actually cozy and open with the high ceilings. So glad you can also find Narrow Street items in Hmart too. Food: 4.74 Service: 4.3 Ambiance: 4.3

The price increase significantly recently. The quality is still there, but $27/meal is quite steep for a food court.

For my first time Korean food experience, their food was great! They are located in H-Mart within the food court alongside many other restaurants , but there was something very inviting about this corner restaurant's ambiance - the food is presented sizzling hot and fresh, and the friendly staff made my order less spicy to my liking. Worth a try if you're here. Rating 4.5

If you go by H Mart then be sure to check out Narrow Street 512 in the food court. It is one of the several vendors located here and specializes in Korean soups. I had ordered the spicy Beef Rib Soup (Galbi Tang). It same with rice and Kimchee. The soup had quite a bit of meat that was meaty, soft, and easy to pull off the bone. When you order they give you a notification fob so they can buzz you when the food is ready. So pretty mysch self service to include bringing back your dishes when you are through. The food court has many tables. Chairs and stools through out. Narrow Street 512 offers good food in a fast food environment.

It was a 2-star experience (Could've Been Better) for me here because I spent 27 bucks for a premium dish expecting a premium experience with some wow-factor and I got none of that. Their high-runner popular Spicy Pork and Octopus dish here, which is raved by many, fell far short of expectations. The flavor and seasoning was lacking and not up to par. Bland. I was excited to try this place. Never been to this H-Mart, stumbled upon them, and then did a search based on highest ratings in the area and this place popped up. A lot of people raved about their spicy pork dish - which is something I am very familiar with, and to be honest, no one in Austin (or NYC for that matter) has come close to the awesome spicy pork that I grew up eating back home in Michigan. But gonna give them a shot. I saw their Spicy Pork + Octopus dish - it was $26+ which is hefty, but I love that combination and the pics looked so good so I decided to give it a go. Food came out in a timely manner. Ok - so this is one of those experiences - and I don't know why - but lately I am finding these occurrences happening a lot with Korean restaurants. No joke. What I am referring to is the dishes look so appetizing and tasty on pictures, and even when they are served to you in person, but when you actually eat them and they fall way short of expectations and the flavor is not up to par. Well unfortunately this is what happened here. I got a lot of fatty pork bits, did not get as much octopus as I should have for $27, but those robust Korean flavors with the slight peppery-seasoned heat was just non-existent here. It basically tasted a bit on the bland side believe it or not. The flavors did not explode in my mouth, they were not robust, there was a severe lack of spice and seasoning. I was a little taken back and then after a few bites - very disappointed. So after a few bites I decided not to finish the dish and just packaged it to go, being very disappointed. I have had similar experiences in Killeen - where there are several Korean places to choose from. I'd say I only found 2 places up there that were pretty good - not great - but pretty good. I don't get some of these reviews raving about their spicy pork. Not sure if it was an off day or different cook but it's a small kitchen and usually the same person cooking. So I don't know what else to say, but after spending that much money for one dish and feeling underwhelmed and disappointed, it certainly doesn't motivate me to come back here and try them again. My search for excellent well seasoned Spicy Pork dish continues.....

Best Korean soup (gomtang)! The shop is located inside the H Mart food court towards the back corner. You walk up to the window, place your order and receive your pager. They do not sell any drinks, so you can walk to the nearby stall to order drinks while you wait for your food. I have not tried the other dishes since this is my favorite dish I order each time I visit. Soup comes very hot with a bowl of rice and some sides. So good especially on a rainy day or after a hangover.

this is by far my favorite place in the hmart food court. i highly recommend the spicy fried pork udon. its the perfect level of spicy and the pork is delicious. the portion size is perfect but slightly on the pricey end for how much meat you get. will always come here and get the same dish tho! service is friendly and fast. lots of seating the food court but can get easily crowded during busy hours.

Part Three of my H-Mart weekend journey with an updated review... My partner and I also ordered from this eatery too! Osam Bulgogi is an abbreviated name for Ojingeo Samgyeopsal Bulgogi. This dish originates from Gangneung, which is an area on the east coast of Korea and is a municipal city of Gangwon-do province. Bulgogi is typically prepared from beef, although pork or chicken are more common in some parts of Korea. A variety of different cuts are used, depending on the region and price. When beef is used, sirloin and ribeye are two very common choices. Similar to beef, pork bulgogi will often utilize pork belly due to its tenderness. Spicy squid and pork stir-fry or Osam bulgogi is a popular Korean dish. This has a wonderful combination of the surf and turf flavors - spicy and garlicky gochujang sauce with a hint of sweetness that brings everything oh so well together. The best part about this dish is the bulgogi sauce. The dish was accompanied by rice and a small ramekin of kimchi. Both the beef and squid were abundant in this dish. The heat from the sauce, jalapenos, and green onion added a 'crunchy' layer of spice. The kimchi was less than pleasing as it lacked heat, but that was overlooked as this was offered as a standard side.

Entering H-Mart from the dedicated food court entrance, you'll typically notice a seasonal display, with Tous les Jours to your right, and a sushi stall to your left. Venturing further in, tucked away by the bathrooms and hair salon is a little place called Narrow Street 512. This place serves up soups, cold noodles, and meat on blue plastic trays, and it even has its own dedicated food tray return rack. Peruse the menu for a while, and you'll notice they offer "combos"--request to pair a soup or cold noodle dish with a platter of meat, and soon you'll be given a pager for food retrieval after payment once your order is taken, counterserve style. One quaint day, I had a hankering for some chill; I sought out a cold noodle dish and spicy pork combo. I received just that--a bowl of cold noodles and a plate of spicy pork sitting atop a blue tray; the tray also featured a pair of chopsticks and a napkin, but no spoon. More importantly, the platter contained no banchan, not even any kimchi in a plastic sauce cup. Was this place really a Korean restaurant in an H-Mart food court? The refreshing cold noodles satisfied the chill. Except for the lack of a spoon. On the other hand, the spicy pork was nothing particularly interesting. It was mostly salty and lacked heat and other flavor. I would skip their spicy pork next time, and save stomach space for something more worthwhile.

The food tastes very fresh and authentic. I've gone here several times with my family and we all truly enjoy our food. The price is very reasonable.

I specifically stop at H Mart for this spot! The spicy pork is unmatched!!!! Hard to rate the service in ambience when this is part of a food court, but I've never had any issue with either.

Whenever I end up eating at the Hmart Food Court, I almost always find myself eating at Narrow Street 512! I usually get the cold naengmyun to fight the Texas heat. And I love that you can customize how much mustard oil or vinegar you want. But their other options are delicious too. Like the stir fried udon! The noodles are still bouncy, it's not too spicy, and they don't skimp on the seafood!

Delicious and authentic Korean food vendor inside Hmart. Our favorites are their udon - soup and stir fried. Our go-to is the stir fried seafood udon which comes with a few big shrimp, mussels, calamari, veggies (cabbage and carrots) and jalapeño. The udon is cooked to perfection and well mixed with their spicy sauce. The stir fried one js perfect for the summer and the soup one is great for the winter. The portion is generous and at reasonable price. They also have other Korean dishes to enjoy with steamed rice and a side of kimchi. Highly recommend this place to experience Korean cuisine!

We ordered the hangover (B1) dish from the recommendation of the cashier and it did not disappoint! It was a spicy hot soup which I believe was with beef or ox tail. The meat was really tender and had nice soften collagen connective tissue. The meal comes with a side of seaweed, kimchi, and white rice. All was really good and we weren't even hungover!

This place is in Hmart. We ordered 3 different dishes and the flavor s were really good. I had the spicy pork and the only recommendation is to fry it a little longer. Everything came out pretty quick which was nice. I would come again for sure.

Go to spot inside H-Mart! Food: Spicy Seafood Udon Stir Fried: One word. DELICIOUS. There's shrimp, muscles, and squid stir fried with cabbage and carrots. The veggies are still crunch yet flavorful. Spicy Seafood Udon Soup: A HUGE bowl. Flavorful broth with plenty of seafood. I have tried their beef stir-fried udon as well. It was flavorful but not my favorite simply because I like the spicy one more. Their soup and grilled meat dishes come in a very small portion so I don't justify the price for the size Service: Straightforward. They give you a buzzer and you can come get your tray when it is ready. Vibe: Hmart vibe. Kpop music. Superb!

I kind of want to call this place a hidden gem as it is kind of an unassuming place tucked away in the H Mart food court. I like their spicy pork bugolgi so much so that I dont try other dishes. I think the dish has a good level of mixed flavors--great mix of spicy, savory, and sweet. The pork is tender and yummy. The stir fried udon is also good too. They also give you some banchan! That's a plus for me. H Mart also sells some of their dishes as pre-made, and I'll occasionally grab something to-go.

Narrow Street 512 is located inside H-Mart. The seafood noodle soup is alright. The udon noodles are cooked well but I felt like there wasn't enough seafood flavor or seafood. They also do not offer water.

This place is located in the Hmart food court. The lady at the register was incredibly sweet. I got the hot stone bibimbap. It's a classic that I love and this one was very good. My only complaint is that since it came out pretty fast, so the crispy rice didn't have time to develop on the bottom. Even so, it was delicious. I really liked the choice of veggies. They were crunchy and cooked well. The rice was seasoned with soy sauce, and the gochugang was a great addition and added a nice amount of spice when mixed together. I LOVED the cucumber kimchi, but damn was it spicy. So yummy, though. The side of the fish cake was good as well. I need to go back and try some other dishes.

We ordered the spicy seafood udon and the seafood fried udon. The flavors of the noodles are great, but the seafood is not fresh. The shrimp and mussels both have a mushy texture, the octopus is flavorless, the cuttlefish/squid pieces look and taste undercooked and look semi-transparent, which is what they look like when half raw. I finished the udon and didn't eat most of the seafood, which was extremely rare for me at any restaurant since I love seafood. I will not try any more of their dishes with seafood and I would not recommend them. I might go back and try their dishes with beef, pork or chicken, hope they are not of poor quality like the seafood. I'd rather they raise the price or decrease the quantity instead of providing inedible seafood.

I was really excited to try this dish because I was starving and I have so many good memories of it. I felt disappointed by it. While it was flavorful, it just didn't hit the spot. I expected there to be more seafood. It was spicy and oily. While it satisfied my craving, it was not memorable.

This is the place to visit in the food court! The soup was fantastic and authentic in flavor. Noodles were good and staff was friendly. The foodcourt is always a great scene too- gives you some authentic k-pop vibes with some great food options! Its loud, casual and fun- so expect a great, affordable down to earth vibe!

Tried this place out since I was shopping at Kmart. Ordered B1, 뼈다귀해장국 (Haejangguk; hangover soup). The soup is delicious, filled with slow-cooked pork and vegetables; comes with rice, too. 10/10 will try other dishes here.

Located inside h-mart and near the hair salon. I tried their spicy seafood udon and it was really good! The udon was soft but not mushy. The spice level was great and not too overpowering. They included a lot of seafood like mussels, shrimps so I enjoyed it. They do close for lunch at certain times so be aware.

I went to Narrow Street because of the good reviews and ordered the Spicy Seafood Updon. It was everything that was said about it and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I will be going back to try some of their other fare.

My husband and I live in South Austin, so a trip to to H-Mart is always a half day affair and we always stop by the food court for lunch! All the restaurants I've tried are great but we keep coming back to Narrow Street. All the udon options- fried or with broth- are great, and the spicy pork is a go-to. My only complaint is the fried noodles are just puddled with oil-I usually tip the plate at the beginning and eat from the top- but dang it is tasty!! The food always comes out quickly too; by the time we've grabbed a beer and found a table the buzzer is usually going off; then its time to enjoy some great food while watching K-pop music videos!

Pleasantly surprised by the food! I got the spicy seafood udon and shared it because it was so huge! But it was very delicious. My only nitpick would be that there was more cabbage than noodles. Also there were only two pieces of octopus and squid in the entire dish!! It was still tasty but my hunch was that we arrived close to their closing time so they might have been running out of ingredients and/or trying to use up what they had left. Service was fast and ambiance was what you can expect from a food court.

I do like their Korean food here. Delicious, quick, and large portions. My favorite is spicy pork/squid. It has good amount of meat and veggies in it, and of course the sauce, yes the sauce. It has 3/5 spicyness level I think.

Always love Narrow Street. It's one of my go-to places. I love their pork backbone soup, galbitang, cold noodles and their grilled meats. It's always consistent, good quality and delicious. Great comfort food and it's satisfying every time! Their banchans are on the smaller side, but pairs very well with the foods

Located inside H-Mart at the far end of the food court, Narrow Street is one of the last places I've needed to try at H-Mart and I am so glad to have gotten around to it! Marinated BBQ Beef - This meat is what you'd get when you go to a KBBQ restaurant except they cook it for you. It was honestly the best tasting KBBQ going off just this singular meat, but of course you don't really get a variety here. This plate comes with a kimchi and fish cake side dish (both good), miso soup (had no tofu cubes and was served WAY too hot - good otherwise), a nice salad with what I believe is a yogurt dressing, and sticky rice that is very sweet so keep that in mind. All of this rounded out to a darn delicious dinner. I was extremely pleased and would certainly get this again. Price was $23.99 so bear that in mind. My friend got the spicy seafood udon soup and seemed pleased with it. I can't really elaborate further since it's not my type of dish. I'll be back to try some other dishes, but for now I had to get a review out saying how much I loved my plate! I got to enjoy a great meal, get some grocery shopping done, and end it all with a quick game of poorly-played Sound Voltex. Love H-Mart.

In the far back wall of the dining hall of HMart, you'll find this hidden gem. Any time I shop at this grocer, I have to make a pit stop at Narrow Street. The food always comes out quickly, and the quality is always consistent. This time. My child ordered the c7 with beef, and I ordered the c4. You're handed a pager, and when it goes off, you go back to the counter to collect the food. I highly recommend this place if you haven't had the opportunity.

Located inside of H-Mart, so it can be difficult to find a table especially during busy hours. This was one of the dish that caught my eye. The kimchi stew was spicy and salty but with the rice it was amazing. I don't think it was too spicy but I can also handle a lot of heat. Definitely recommend stopping here BEFORE grocery shopping because it can be difficult to find a table especially if you have a large shopping cart.

Had the Haejangguk (hangover pork soup). Lots of good fatty (flavorful) pork joint stew meat in a mildly spicy broth. Warm and hearty like a good menudo on a cold day. Came with sides of pickle, seaweed, slightly sticky yet firm short grain rice.

I really like the spicy seafood udon! I've also had their squid and it was really good. Service is quick and they have pictures of every meal on the wall. It's located inside the Hmart food court, so seating is open.

We have been coming to this place for however long it opened and everything is still good, especially their Jjamppong (Spicy seafood Udon) which is my favorite!! Their Jjamppong is the best in town in my opinion and this was my first time eating it fresh (normally we order it to-go). The noodle soup (Jjamppong) was piping hot (temperature wise and with some kick that will make your nose runny), seafood was cooked perfectly, with a generous portion of noodles with the perfect chew to them, and what flavorful broth!! It's just perfect for cold weather!

Solid Korean food inside H-Mart food court. Been here several times over the years and they don't disappoint. I would recommend the beef bone soup. The broth was a little salty but still tasted great and you get that home cooked meal feeling when you eat here. Good place to eat while you're shopping at H-Mart or if you're around the area it's a good stop for a quick meal.

This street food style restaurant is inside of H-Mart. The marinated beef is so tender and to LIVE for! Love that they gave some traditional Korean side dishes to go with the meal. The wait is long, but again worth it. Eating in the food court is always fun with so many different things to look at.

With my only prior experience with H Mart being a small store in Schaumburg, IL, this true experience was awesome. Entering the store, I was immediately struck by the enormity of the food court. While the others in my group chose their lunch from the many restaurants, I finally zeroed on the bulgogi udon stir fry at Narrow Street 512. I chose well this day. The beef was insanely delicious, tender, and fat free. The noodles and veggies were cooked perfectly crisp and all was mixed with an intoxicating sauce. I devoured this meal with a couple beers and a sake jelly drink. The perfect meal after a tour of a local cave!

This is becoming my go-to spot for takeout when I go to HMart for groceries. The quality of the beef rib soup is great and comforting. I didn't give five stars because the price is a bit high to be honest, and I ordered a stir-fried udon here before that I wasn't impressed by.

Narrow street is a goto for us! We come here a lot and order out a lot too. Basically everything we have tried here from the soups to the meats to the noodles everything is just good. Good quality, great taste, love it!

Some people don't care for Udon because of the thick noodles, I am not one of those people. I love Udon, especially when it's done right and this place does it right. The noodles were cooked to perfection and had great flavor. The pork itself was fantastic! I got the spicy pork and although I wish it had a bit more heat, it was still delicious. It had the right amount of heat where you can feel it in your nose a bit. And having the extra bit of sauce on there added great flavor to each bite of noodles. I know there are a lot of places to choose from in H-Mart, but this place is definitely worth checking out.

Narrow Street 512 is one of my favorite food court stands in Austin. I discovered the shop on Uber Eats and have been going back to them bc the food is delicious! The food stand is located inside the H Mart food court, so they don't have private seating space but there's a large open seating areas in the food court where you can easily snag a spot even during dinner hours. There's always nice AC so you could dine there comfortably even during the summer times. The staff are ok and they always make sure they get the order items right. I was there last night and she even walked to our bar seats to double check we were going to dine in the food court, not take out. Some of my favorite dishes from this place are special noodles and beef rib soups. The only reason I'm leaving one star out is bc the prices are a little bit high considering the cost of living of TX. Would definitely give 5/5 for the food though.

Food was very good. My soup came out hot and well flavored! Meat fell off the bones, tender enough. Brisket was decent too. The guy at the counter was very kind and nice. I didn't think the people in the back were too friendly, but maybe they were just busy. For some reason, it was a bit difficult for them to allow you to get udon noodles on the side or inside the soup. Once allowed, I was happy to pay the extra $1 for the udon noodles but once the dish came out, I saw that they accidentally gave me glass noodles instead. Therefore, I am not sure if the original dish usually comes with glass noodles or it was an add on this time. They eventually corrected this and gave me udon noodles on the side. I did really like the glass noodles too, though, so no complaint there. This is located inside an H mart. I went on a Sunday so it was crazy packed! Difficult to find parking too. I thought it was a fun experience though since I am a big fan of food courts.

I never knew H Mart had such a nice food court until I looked up Narrow Street 512 to try their food! This restaurant is located in the corner of the food court, right next to the bathrooms and around the corner from the hair salon. I got the Hot Pot Intestine Soup (D4), and while it was tasty and full of meaty intestine pieces, the soup itself was more one noted and didn't have the depth of flavor I was expecting. For $14.99, it was a bit overpriced for the quality. The soup comes with two types of banchan--kelp salad and fish cakes. I wish it came with a few more banchan, like kimchi or pickled radish. I probably wouldn't order the hot pot intestine soup again, but I would want to try their Kimchi Stew ($9.99 lunch special), since pricing is very reasonable.

Been finding for a good sulleung tang (Beef Bone Soup) since I have casually ate this menu as the comfort food. Whenever I feel sick, or need some good warm broth bowl, this is my go to. I don't know why I'd never tried this place all this long! They legitimately make this typical gook bap so darn right, it hits my deep satisfaction!! I had this yesterday night as the weather hit 40 degree, it was especially good and made my whole body sweaty hot, bringing my body temperature to warm again. The thin sliced briskets are at right amount, make sure to add all those salt packet they give you (they give ya 4 pockets and it perfectly a good amount for the size of bowl which I was a bit amazed about). Also the glass noodle inside! I usually prefer the somyeon, but glass noodle is still alternatively good (they both are correct but there are preference sometimes, ya would understand what I meant if you're a Korean here lol). This is such a gooood comforting food that deeply connects my childhood. Now I probably only try their food whenever I visit H mart. Also they are near from my workplace, I literally order their soup menus everyday for lunch ever since I discovered them. But being physically there and eat it from the hot stone gook bap bowl is something better. The price is also really good as well, their banchans (side dishes) are like something grandma makes, which is another extra points for this restaurant! Definitely scored and saved as one of my top Korean Gookbap place now!
