I had been here several years ago, and it hasn’t changed much at all. This is a Korean bar type restaurant in Union Square with a myriad of different Korean foods including noodles, rice, buns, etc. The last time I was here, I had ordered a bunch of side dishes and had wrote down typical Korean American bar food. This time around, we decided to try out Korean BBQ. The staff led us up the stairs where there were many tables with BBQ grills in them.

Pretty good. No Korean rice wrap, but meat quality was good.

It’s right across from the Los Tacos place in Chelsea Market. Got the Korean ramen, and it was abysmal.

Korean wings. They have ice cream beer which was a gimmick. It’s mediocre at best. They do give you these finger “condom” looking things to handle the chicken.

Decent bibimbap, but don’t go out of your way for this.

Really good. I like their kimchi jigae because it’s super sour. Don’t get their soondobu. It sucks.

One of my goals was to knock out some popular Momofuku establishments. SSAM was one of them. The SSAM Bar is on the San Pellegrino world’s 50 best restaurants list at the time of this writing. The service style is basically family style, so there are a lot of sharing plates. Portions are small for large groups probably, but decent sized for small groups 2-4. The decor has a very modern feel to it.
