The Gochujang

I was craving kimbap so I decided to stop by the food gallery since I was nearby. I thought the beef didn't taste too fresh and my half of my kimbap was falling apart easily when I touched it with my chop sticks. The kimbap tasted alright. The service was attentive I requested a dipping sauce and he suggested spicy mayo. The spicy mayo went well with the kimbap.

I was in K-Town and looking to pick up something quickly and was craving kimbap, so I visited The Gochujang located in Food Gallery 32 for the first time. Food Gallery 32 is a food court offering various Asian cuisine and dessert. The Gochujang is on the first floor across from Kung Fu Tea. The Gochujang serves Korean "school food" such as Kimbap, fish cake soup, ddukbboki, tempura, soondae (blood sausages), and more. I ordered their Bulgogi Kimbab for $11.97 after tax. After ordering, I received a buzzer. When my order was ready, it buzzed and I picked up my order. There were 10 pieces of kimbab. The kimbab was packed nicely and didn't fall apart when I picked it up with chopsticks. However, it was okay and pretty normal. I think it may have lacked some flavor. Service was friendly. Since I know other places have better kimbab, I would go elsewhere next time.

I've probably eaten here about a dozen times over my many visits to Koreatown's beloved food court. It's one of the first stalls you see inside the food court (on your left just beyond the taiyaki station) and has a nice menu of what is called "school food" in Korea. Kimbap, ddokboki (rice cakes), fish cake, noodles, and dumplings galore. Once you order and pay for your food, you're handed a buzzer that will go off when your food is ready, so you're free to find a seat somewhere in the court. I recommend heading upstairs or even a floor above that, particularly during peak times like weekends, and during the daily lunch or dinner rush. You can get a solid meal here for just about $11-$15 bucks, a steal in midtown Manhattan. My go-to order is one of a spicy tuna kimbap, rice cakes with fish cake. It comes with soup and I'm always left more than full.

Not sure why this place has just three stars. I am going to say that the tuna kimbap was EXCELLANT. Appreciate that the customer service, the quality of the food and how quick they were! I would definitely try the spicy tuna kimbap next time! Menu boosts many other options available to all Korean snack lovers including spicy rice cake, tempura, fish soup, blood sausages, dumplings, truffle fries, cheese sticks, buns and more! I would definitely come back to try other options and get a little taste of Korea! Also - head up to the third floor when you get your order and enjoy the views of BTS and BlackPink!

This food stall is inside the Food Gallery 32 in Korea town. It is a Korean snack shop - so you can get things like corn dogs and tteokboki! Hubs got the tteokboki with a side of beef and 3 small fried corn dogs. The rice cakes had a really nice chew texture and mouthfeel and I liked that you can add on meat toppings!! The corn dogs were freshly fried and very filling. Lots of seating in this food hall, go upstairs if the bottom floor is too crowded!

Service is not good. The attitude I got is they don't care about customer service. But I was really craving for hot fish cake soup. Fine. Quickly checked out and then I left. The soup is good for rainy weather. But the service can be improved a LOT.

Honestly, it's a 3.5 for me. The kimbap tasted very subpar compared to the kimbap I have had in the city. I appreciate the effort that they took to make it but I was honestly expecting better. Their Tteokbokki is alright, it's an interesting flavor I haven't tasted before. It was more on the spicy side. I ordered the deluxe kimbap and tteokbokki combo for like ~16-~$18. It's not something I would try again tbh. The service was nice. The cashier was prompt at taking my order. It's a food hall so the seating is first come first serve that shouldn't be counted against them. Would I try them again, maybe, I'm not sure but I wouldn't get the kimbap again, personally.

This stall is inside the Food Court on 32nd St The spicy rice cakes were okay, thought the extra sugar wasn't necessary. This is considered street food for 13 dollars. It is def overpriced but it's 32nd St! Everything is overpriced because the rent is too too high!

When I placed my order I wasn't sure what I got but ended up really enjoying it. It was like a hot dog and rice cake with each bite which was an interesting combo but really enjoyable

FoodIt's ironic that they are literally called Gochujang, but don't carry itOr seem to flavor their food at all..At least not their kimbapsI like their tteokbokki cause its not as spicy as the bb.q chicken version and thus more edible for me, but they should definitely carry a gochuchang for everything elseWould pass on their mini corn dogs tooThey aren't seasoned eitherService DNot helpful at all, and lots of blank stares
