Korean Express serves pretty good food at such a low price. Their ramen is nice and spicy, their tonkatsu is delicious, and the kimchi fried rice is the perfect thing is you just want a little kick of spice. In the back they also have a myriad of delicious and uncommon drinks for the U.S., and definitely worth checking out, and they keep their mochi frozen. So if you need a light dessert, or just something sweet to settle a craving, consider these. The service here has also gotten significantly better recently, making this place a solid four stars.

The food is not bad but wont be coming again especially because of The service.I came With My daughter at 2:50 pm the Time to see the menu and I saw There was a lunch special we were starving, we did fast but the waitress was waiting. Did not know at first why but when I ordered the lunch special I understood cause she came at 3:01 pm to say we can not anymore even if I said what I think and saw an order going out.then too bad no next time;)

Très bon rapport qualité/prix. Cest un bon traiteur. La carte est variée. Nous y avons déjeuné à quatre. Deux entrées, un menu déjeuner, un plat et deux boissons pour 52 dollars taxes et tips compris.

Went there on a rainy day. There were only a couple of customers there. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I ordered fried kimchi rice, it was delicious. My only reservation about this places is that the food seems to be prepared in advance for the most part. While it was tasty it wasnt as fresh as it could have been.

Looks like a typical fast-food place from the sidewalk, but this is a great little restaurant. Except for the fairly stingy banchan (little appetizers served before ordering), the food here is every bit as good as the more pricey Korean restaurants along 32nd Street. Highly recommended.

The best thing here was the service. Waitresses were very friendly and suggested exactly what I was looking for. It was our first time trying Korean food and they were very patient. The prices were reasonable and the food delicious. Try the Korean black raspberry wine (Bokbunjaju)

Its my first time eating korean food. I had the Bulgogi over rice and it was delicious. My boyfriend had the spicy pork over rice and we both enjoyed it. We went on a Saturday around 3 and it wasnt busy. The food was quick and the waiters were friendly. Nice food for a good price.

Octopus and vegetable soup was so great!! I love this place because they always use Super fresh ingredients! Stir fry octopus is their signature dish and Im sure everyone will be hooked by it once they try it. Its my wifes favorite but oh my my my! Im in love with the soup!

Very delicious and tender Galbi Jim. Our server recommended us get the other popular dish here, the Kim Chi Mackerel, but I dont think that was nearly as good. Kind of pricey but worth it for an authentic hearty Korean meal. The service was very good.

Really good lunch menu, easy to get full for ~$10. Service is really friendly and attentive, and the food is excellent for the price. Gets busy around lunchtime, but they manage to handle both an active restaurant and take-out pretty well.

Food is okay, pretty average Korean food. The interior is very grubby. The only unique thing about this place is the fact that it serves Korean on the Upper East Side. If you MUST have korean on the UES, its okay. Otherwise, stay away.

Very good chicken wings, even by the standards of some of the dedicated Korean fried chicken places in the city. This place is a fast casual restaurant, and therefore not fancy, but the food is solid and the value pretty good.

This is a great place for casual Korean food. I wouldnt really take a guest there (go to K-town for that), but its awesome for a quick bibimbap or army stew fix. Sort of expensive for what it is, but delivery is super quick.

Over priced and low quality Korean dishes with possible msg favors. Tofu was about to be spoiled in bibimbap and stew dishes during summer time. Friendly staffs.

Just casual Korean food. Doesnt taste as good as authentic Korean but it does the job for a quick lunch. Their tofu soup is nothing compared to BCD.

The food is delicious, the pieces are good, and the staff is excellent. There is even plenty of seating. Nothing not to like about this place.

Decent food, but there arent a lot of options for Korean food in the area. However, for better quality Korean, go to 32nd St.
