MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Koreans have long flocked to the delightful Samwon, originally founded in Seoul in 1976. This stateside, midtown incarnation serves as the first in the country, standing tall with three floors—each one humming with constant K-Pop beats. Regardless of your pech, know that the quality of cooking and level of service here rise well above the other stalwarts in this fabled block of town.
Take the signature galbi, for instance, which the kitchen lightly scores to ensure that the meat sears up just right. Servers keep a close eye on gas-powered grills so diners never have to fret about burning these premium cuts. Other standout dishes include fried skate wings, braised pork belly with spicy kimchi, and a mushroom egg soufflé that's as delicate as it looks.
