I felt so regret that I just found this place.
I heard a lot of good comments about Cho Dang Gol, especially their special tofu. Finally I decided to give it a try. My friends and I came on a Friday night around 5:30 pm, first thing you need to check in on a Kiosk and get the number. The restaurant is busy, warm and cozy. A good place to hang out with friends. We waited an hour. I suggest you walking around in the nearby shopping mall so you don't get cold in such weather.After get in the table, we ordered the cod roe omelet, seafood tofu soup, kimchi tofu soup, perilla tofu stew, and fried chicken. Here are my recommendations: * Kimchi tofu stew: the flavor is right to the point. Not over salty. Flavorful and yummy. BTW - my friend finish the entire soup. *Perilla tofu stew: you will love this soup if you like perilla leaf. I recommend people who likes mild flavor to try this dish out. *Cod Roe Omelet: fresh, tasty and soft inside. We both like it. Total we spent around $100. I appreciate the staff that works here and provides us a great service. We get the side dishes and refills promptly. It's a great experience and worth to go back again.
Be the first to Replyi came here at around 1pm on a rainy saturday.
i waited about 15 minutes to get in. the side dishes were mostly good. i had the cod roe omelet and the kimchi tofu stew with white rice. i really enjoyed the cod roe omelet. the egg was hot and fluffy, the cod roe was perfectly salty, and the green tea mayo was a very good addition. the kimchi tofu stew was the perfect amount of spice (for me) n had tofu, ground meat i forgot which, an egg, and kimchi. the rice was soft and sticky and paired really well with the stew. even tho it was super busy, the food came out relatively fast and the restaurant was clean. YASSS!
Be the first to ReplyThe most amazing restaurant on Manhattan.
Welcoming atmosphere with homey Korean dishes. Shout out to Chloe for the most amazing service and recommendations. The bossam, cod roe omelette and perilla seed stew are outstanding.

A must-have if you're a fan of sundubu (tofu stew)! This place is known for their homemade-tofu and for good reason! Coupled with great banchan and a nice traditional Korean feel, this place is definitely worth checking out. Only thing to note is that there's almost always a long wait - came here as early as 6, and already had over 15 parties ahead of me. Spicy Kimchi Tofu Stew - 5/5 I've had a lot of tofu stews from all over k-town but this definitely stood out. The homemade tofu is clearly different from what other restaurants use - is definitely on the firmer side, but tastes great. This particular variation was actually quite spicy, probably in the middle of BCD's Spicy and Danger level. The taste of the stew itself was incredibly flavorful - no complaints about being watered down like I've had about BCD.Korean Pancake - 3/5 Quantity is quite large and goes well with the sauce given. I wish it were a bit crispier though. Mini Bossam - 4/5 Pretty good, but nothing too out of the ordinary. Comes with salted shrimp sauce, ssamjang, kimchi, garlic, and jalapenos.Fried Chicken - 4/5 Meat was cooked really well - no stringiness whatsoever. Sauce was pretty good, but tasted a bit too much like ketchup. Wish this was also a bit crispier (although meat-breading ratio is great).

Came here for lunch with fam- they gave a good amount of side dishes with free refills. The tofu here is delicious, we were huge fans of the spicy tofu soup and the seafood pancakes were great as well! The bulgogi was a tad on the sweet side, but still god if you're feeling it.

Craving for some good Korean food in the city? This is a place do check out! Came in during lunch time so there was a long wait. Food was great especially for the price we paid. For a lunch combo, I believe it was $20 and it came with soup, main entree, and rice and they were decent portions. Review is more on the service we received. Sure it was lunch time when we came in and it was busy, but the host kept seating people who came in after us. There were 5 of us in our party, and instead of giving us the option to split up like he did with the other party, he kept making us wait. We waited over an hour and a half before we were finally seated. When we were finally seated, it took another 15 mins before someone even came to us just to give us water let alone take our order.
Be the first to ReplyTasty food and good service.
The staff was very friendly and attentive. I got the egg cod roe omelet thing on a whim and it was actually like really good... succulent. Meat was juicy, the sides were all tasty, and I ate my fill. Yummy.
Be the first to ReplyI think our dishes were 4/5, but I would love to go again!
I think our dishes were 4/5, but I would love to go again! We got there at 11:50 as they were seating the first round. They only seat full parties so get there on time! We ended up being the first ones on the waitlist since our full party wasn't there til 12:15 (two people) but only had to wait ~20 minutes since they move fast. We got the soybean stew and the perilla soybean. I think I was looking for a heavier flavor, like a kimchi stew. The texture was also not my favorite, as the tofu was very soft and crumbled
Be the first to ReplyGood tofu and side dishes.
We got the spicy squid plate and seafood tofu. Both were good and hit the spot on a cold day. We got in right as they opened on Saturday which meant we didn't need to wait. The line soon piled up and people who missed the first seating would probably have to wait 30-40 minutes. I'm not sure if this place would be worth the wait but I think the move is to try to get there right as they open so you don't have to wait!

The banchan/side dishes were a great start to the meal and the service was great since they refilled it knowing the food would be slow. We had a seafood and scallion pancake for appetizer which was good. I got the perilla tofu stew since I can't eat spicy and it was great! I like how they have rice cakes in it along with the tofu. I'm glad that I can also have a flavorful soup even though I can't eat spicy. I chose the extra mushroom rice which was delicious. Be sure to come at 11:55 even though they say they open and 12 since they start seating people early and it gets filled quick!

Went directly when they opened and glad we did, as the restaurant was already packed with customers. The food is so comforting and one of the best I've eaten in Manhattan. The seafood sundubu was refreshing stew that calmed my stomach. The bossam was huge and they gave us plenty to fill our stomachs. Will definitely come back again!
Be the first to ReplyThis restaurant serves a very satisfying and comforting
This restaurant serves a very satisfying and comforting tofu stew that is perfect for when you want a warm and filling meal. The flavors of the stew are well-balanced and not too strong, allowing the tofu to shine through. The overall texture of the perilla stew was thick and hearty, making it a filling and satisfying dish that could be enjoyed on its own or accompanied by rice or other side dishes. Overall, the perilla tofu stew was a great option for anyone looking for a delicious and comforting meal. They also offer a tasty oyster stew, although it may be slightly salty for some palates.One of the highlights of the meal was the cute little cauldron pot that the refreshing and cold makgeolli was served in, which was a delightful surprise. Despite the restaurant being busy and crowded, it's easy to understand why due to the quality of the food. As an added bonus, a small cookie was served at the end of the meal, making for a sweet conclusion to a great dining experience. IYKYK Other notes: Wait time was around 45 mins for party of 2. Side of rice really does serve 2-3 small bowls and came out in tin bowl.
Be the first to ReplyCan't believe I haven't tried this place before in my time
Can't believe I haven't tried this place before in my time in NYC! It's def one of the top Korean places in Manhattan imo. The tofu stew had really fresh tofu and I prefer this tofu over silken tofu - would recommend this over BCD. I also loved the pork belly, it was so tasty with all the fixings! We enjoyed the marinated spicy raw crabs as well and all the banchans. The chestnut rice wine was just ok - it tasted good but then got really heavy after a while. I wanted to try the pear but they were out so will have to come back to try that! Only complaint is that they charge for things that normally come with the dishes like rice. Apparently nothing comes with rice and you have to pay extra for rice which is a bit annoying since their dishes aren't cheap by any means but other than that would recommend!
Be the first to ReplyThe restaurant was extremely crowded and busy, yet their
The restaurant was extremely crowded and busy, yet their service and efficiency were legit. The food quality is undoubtedly worth the fame of a Michelin restaurant. Most surprisingly, the price is very affordable! My Korean friend said the taste of Cho Dang Gol is americanized, so it may not be the most authentic spot in Korean standard.Highly recommend their weekday lunch combo set. $19.99 for a mini stew and mini main, but they aren't mini at all! The portion is indeed smaller than dishes from the regular menu, but it is still very filling that I have to take away boxes of leftovers. They also serve complimentary homemade soybean curd and 5-6 banchans before your mains.* Perilla Seed Tofu StewI miss this stew so much so I come back again. My Korean friend recommended this stew last time, and it was life-changing. He said perilla seed stew is a common dish in Korea. The perilla seed was so aromatic and earthy. The stew has a hearty portion of homemade tofu, sliced rice cake and mushroom. Some may find it a bit plain comparing to spicy kimchi stew. If you can't tolerate much spice, you will find this very delectable.* Beef BulgogiThe marinated bulgogi was stir-fried with onions and mushrooms. It was well seasoned and quite sweet. Perfect match with a bowl of rice.* Cod Roe OmeletIt tasted more like Japanese tamagoyaki rather than a Korean dish. The omelet was very soft, creamy and jiggly. The green tea mayo was slightly subtle, yet complemented with the savory cod roe fillings. ***Walk-in only. If you want to guarantee a table, make sure you arrive before it opens (12pm)My Recommendations:Perilla Seed Tofu Stew, Baby Octopus & Beef Bulgogi Worth Returning ? YES Follow @nyc.bgoo on Instagram for more honest food reviews!

The Hot Stone Tofu Vegetable Bibimpap is okay..., but the Spicy Galbi Jjim is a must! It is spicy but it is good. Not only the braised beef is good, the vegetables in it are also great.

This place is popular! I think we waited about 15 minutes to get in. We put our names on the list and were asked our phone number to remind us 5 minutes ahead when we had a table. It was so worth it! The meals were served super hot and fresh. I loved my late lunch meal. It was around 2 PM when we arrived, and the service was immediate and direct. Our waitress checked on us and made sure we were enjoying our delicious options. We ordered the bibimbap (cold, not dolsot hot stone, had homemade Tofu in the center...yum!), fried pollack fish (heavenly, crispy, just amazingly spicy and tingly delicious), and the beef salad (cooked bulgogi and some delicious light salad with microgreens), and rice. It also preemptively accompanied with banchan which was kimchi, greens, Jerasalem artichokes, tofu in spicy dressing. I would definitely return, and I recommend it to you as well. I just would give myself some time, because there's a wait to get in. It's awesome!!!

First time eating at a Korean restaurant and it was delicious! Can't believe I hadn't tried it until now but better late than never. We had a group of 4 and came without a reservation -- short wait of about 10-15 minutes. I can't remember the names of what I ordered but I just know it was so flavorful and delicious!

Comfort Korean food, came here with a huge group for a birthday and they kindly seated us at two adjacent tables and we also made friends with the neighboring table. Can't go wrong!
Be the first to ReplyCho Dang Gol one of the more traditional Korean restaurants
Cho Dang Gol one of the more traditional Korean restaurants in K-Town, as opposed to Take31 or Turntable. Each meal begins with a sample of their homemade tofu, as suggested by its literal name, "Tofu House." I've been here three times and have consistently ordered the same things.Baby Octopus & Beef Bulgogi - One of the best value items I can find anywhere in K-Town. It comes in a massive cast-iron pan filled with stir-fried octopi, bulgogi, rice cakes, king oyster mushrooms, and vegetables mixed in gochujang. Spicy Seafood Tofu Stew - I always order the large and share it with a friend. It comes in a bubbling stone pot filled with silky tofu and assorted seafood.
Be the first to ReplyVery good food but very poor wait service.
. our waiter was just this side of being rude.
Be the first to ReplyImagine going to a tofu place and they run out of.
. tofu!?!?! You might think if you advertise a feature food item, you make sure you don't run out of it (especially at the start of early dinner!), but not here. Also, not saying anything and just removing the bowls was just not right. I wasn't expecting the best service (had to constantly flag down multiple servers for ordering, various missing dishes, etc.), but it was just plain bad. Food is unremarkable and with the competition in the area, you're better off going elsewhere!

Came here early for dinner around 5:00 and was seated really quickly but around 6pm the place started filling up so definitely come early. They started off by giving us an appetizer of their homemade tofu, which was so delicious!! It's definitely different from those you buy in store and the soy flavor was super strong. We ordered the spicy galbijjim and the kimchi tofu soup and both were super flavorful and great. The galbijjim wasn't actually that spicy but had a sweeter flavor which I really appreciated. I really want to try the ssam and other dishes next time too!

Amazingly cozy Korean restaurant with a great selection of food! I had the rice cake soup with dumplings (a winter seasonal special) and it was delicious. The banchan was very tasty and included foods like dried squid, egg pancake, and radish kimchi. Would definitely recommend as a date night place - the atmosphere is lovely.

Was able to walk in with a buddy and get a table on a Monday night after a 20min wait. You wouldn't think a joint located in Midtown next to Herald Square would be one of the best/most authentic offerings of Korean food in the city - but it's in that conversation. There's a reason why the place is always packed. Ordered both the spicy kimchi tofu stew and spicy chicken dish with rice cakes. Both were fantastic and perfectly encapsulated traditional Korean flavors. Would recommend to all.

I had been wanting to try out this place for a while and am so glad that I did! I got the Kimchi Tofu Stew which was delicious and exactly what I needed on a cold, winter day. We came around 4:30/5ish on a Thursday, so there was no wait. Apparently they make all of their rice wines themselves, so we tried the Korean Pear and Honey Rice Wine. It wasn't what I expected, but I actually really enjoyed it!Overall, great service and reliable food :)
