The Woo

My wife, daughters and I visited NYC for the first time and I found this place on OpenTable. Had good reviews so made reservation. Food was amazing! Whatever marinade they used on the thin cut ribeye was heavenly and I catch myself daydreaming about the steak tartare. Will go back again.

Good food but expensive.

Great food and beverages. Manny and team always provide fun and professional service.

We had a great experience and will definitely return.

This is a great upscale alternative to Korean BBQ, it’s quality meat and drinks and service.
I loved the dumplings appetizer. The staff is beyond cordial and respectful to provide space and safety.

Great experience, socially distanced. Great wait staff, and excellent food and drinks. Good for a date

Fantastic food!! Cant wait to go back

We arrived at the Woo promptly for our reservation at 8:30pm. We requested in our notes to be reserved at an indoor table upon booking 2 or 3 days prior. Because new york was opening for indoor dining a day or two before valentines day, we could not pick the indoor option on the app. I tried calling multiple times to confirm indoor but the phone was never answered.
Once we arrived they tried to show us outside and I explicitly stated that we requested indoor. The hostess continued to parrot "it say outdoor so outdoor" over and over instead of trying to help us come to a solution. Her attitude was disgusting. Worst of all this was our only event for the evening and we could have done something else with our prexious time and supported a small business that deserved our business during these times.

An absolute insult. On top of insult they marked us as a no show when we spent money on 2 Uber's to get there so they can try and charge us a fee. They can fk themselves they wasted our anniversary time.
We have receipts of our travel and calls to the restaurant.

just so so. Too cold outside

The food was amazing. The ambience was everything.

Food was great, drinks were nice and strong. Overall very fun experience

Food was delicious, it was my first time at a Korean bbq place and I took my girlfriend for Valentine’s Day. The service was amazing, everyone’s so nice. The food was great the waiter was very helpful with recommendations. Would definitely come back again.

Amazing food and service. Also very beautiful inside

Our server (I unfortunately didn’t catch his name) was excellent! He paid such close attention to my dietary needs (celiac) and was so knowledgeable about what was GF and what wasn’t. Plus, the gluten free menu The Woo offers is a huge help. The food was so delicious! Will definitely be coming back. I also felt comfortable to sit inside because the hostess/host took everyone’s temperature upon arrival and the dinning rooms weren’t crowded at all.

The food here was very good. Short rib dumplings were fantastic. The Kalbi Jim (braised beef short rib) was a perfect combination of sweet and savory. The Korean fried chicken app was exactly what you would expect, really crispy and excellent combination of sweet and spicy. The squid in the Ojing Aw bokum was overcooked and chewy - the overall flavors were very good but after a while, I just didn't want to eat the squid anymore. The service was excellent. I enjoyed the lychee martini as well and my friends all got the mezcal cocktail which they enjoyed. Overall the place was a bit pricey but without cocktails, it wouldn't have been as bad. I would definitely go back to try other items on the menu.

AWESOME FOOD! went for outdoor dining and loved the food!

Had a great time! I would recommend The Woo to friends!

We had a fab time: food, drinks, service and heaters, all superb!

For outside dining, I think it would be best to have it covered from the outside onlookers because we had an altercation with someone that was disrespectful to us. So to prevent this, enclose the outside dining, so customers can feel safe.

Definitely one of our favorite Korean restaurants downtown. Upmarket, trendy vibe. We've eaten here at least 10 times in past 2 years, including a few times outdoors in summer/fall 2020, and back inside a week ago. Food just as wonderful as ever, classic Korean -- not a fusion place.

Just wonderful all around ! We truly enjoyed!! .........

Just all around incredible will definitely be back. Highly recommend. Everything was incredible and easily customizable. Top top experience.

I just love this place, that simple!
Delicious and Cool AF!

it's Covid time so you're sitting outside. But the food is delicious. Especially the Korean fried chicken and the tuna sashimi with Asian pear.

The decor & staff were pleasant and accommodating but the star of the show was the fantastic Food!!
We had the best chicken wings Ever!!
They were fried then glazed with this spicy honey chili sauce that makes me want to moonlight there for a few weeks just to try to extract the recipe from the chef!!!

Other notable dishes was the Bi bim bop and the beef tartare!

It was excellent

Not the most authentic Korean experience in terms of dishes - there is definitely it let a fusion feel and levels of spice / flavor was a bit lower than I’d like. Although it’s a beautiful space and the COVID-outdoor dining setup and service was great.

The food we ordered was delivious

They don’t have dessert.

Best Korean food in SoHo in a great location with awesome outdoor dining.

The food and service are always superb. The tables are generally comfortably spaced (they’ve added a few more so it’s not QUITE as spacious as it was a few months ago) - it’s one of the few restaurants I’m always totally comfortable eating outdoors at.

Love this place. It’s

I booked the Woo for my daughter’s 21st birthday dinner and The Woo delivered! The staff were lovely and attentive and the food was delicious, fresh and just right. The atmosphere was fun and it couldn’t have been a nicer dinner. Thank you Woo!

Excellent food, good service, interesting and fun drinks.

This was one of the top 5 meals I have ever had in my entire life. And for a bargain price. Wonderful experience. I will definitely be returning at some point in the near future.

Pork belly was delicious and paired very complimentary to the potato croquettes. Very nice it was served over a flame. A bit disappointed the Kalbi Jim lacked sweet soy sauce. Meat was a bit dry. Expected more flavor. Waiters were slow with service. Wasn't too thrilled with the experience. I tried it. Won't be going back.

The food at The Woo is absolutely delicious! The indoor dining experience is absolutely amazing but even with COVID-19 they have create a beautiful outdoor space! The service is top-notch and the drinks are very refreshing (try the Asian Glow). My wife and I love going to the Woo!

Most importantly, the food at The Woo is So delicious. We order from here and go there at least once a week. Given so many choices we have in NYC, we wouldn’t do that unless the food speaks for itself.

Now service, hands down the most friendly awesome neighborhood spot. New or return customers, i always felt that this place was welcoming and inviting.

Manny, the GM is fantastic. He’s always working so hard and has a big smile on his face.

Will definitely return!

Friendly staff and good food

Amazing! As always! The bul go gi is to die for!
