Take 31 - City of New York

Incredible food and great service. Everything we ordered was delicious and food arrived on a timely manner.The dishes that stood out the most were the Rolled Up Roe Omelette and Pork Belly with Rice Crepe Wrap. The omelette was so soft and flavourful. The pork belly was tender and extra chewy the to the crepe wrap. The Crispy Corn Pancake was very crispy and delicious as well. The Cod Roe Seafood Udon was also delicious the noodles were cooked perfectly and the soup base was very rich.We also ordered the Garlic Crusts Spicy Chicken and the Wasabi Cream Chicken. Both were good but not outstandingIn terms of drinks, we ordered the Macgeolli slush in the Yogurt and Melona flavour. I personally don’t like the melon melona flavour that much so that one was less enjoyable. The yogurt slush was delicious.Finally, instead of the regular side dishes that Korean restaurants have (like Kimchi, potato), Take31 service spicy rice cakes (teokbeokki). As someone who loved spicy rice cakes, I was very happy with this throughout the dinner.

I'm slowly making my way through the Hand Hospitality portfolio of restaurants and Take 31 did not disappoint! I made a reservation for a party of 4 to celebrate my birthday earlier this year and we were seated at a booth in the back of the restaurant.What we got: Braised Pork Belly Spicy Soft Tofu Hotpot Seafood and Scallion Pancake Crispy Corn Pancake White Peach Makgeoli Lemon Pear Slushy SojuFinal Thoughts:The unique drinks were a hit we loved both the white peach makgeoli and lemon pear slushy soju! The braised pork belly was delicious and the spicy soft tofu hotpot had a good kick to it. One of my favourite meals during this New York Trip.

Cold noodles and rjce wrapped pork belly were the highlights over the chapaguri which was too salty for our liking and not much meat. Friendly and efficient service! Would recommend getting reservations as the place was packed on a Thursday.

Love the egg roll!! Overall everything was delicious, we did a reservation online and was able to book at 5pm without waiting. The restaurant is very popular and was full shortly after opening, so definitely get a reservation ?

Decent food. the soju slush drink was amazing. you get free tteokbeokki as an appetizer. the fried chicken was sweet and crispy. and the chapaguri was good too.
