Greg: This is a really rare spot because when you think of Korean food, it’s almost always beef oriented. But I’m vegetarian and I love Korean food—but I can never find it anywhere. This place is incredible, the only place I’ve ever seen like it. Satomi: It’s an all vegan menu. You take off your s... Read More

Every year, my partner and I spend three precious days in NYC in December. HanGawi was the place we ate last year and just raved about to friends and family. This year ... well ... for the $$ we spent (well over $150 for two of us), it was this side of disappointing. We left saying that it remind... Read More

I would be remiss if I didn't correct some (perceived) inaccuracies of the negative reviews below because Hangawi is, by far, one of my favorite vegan restaurants in the city.

Is everyone out of their minds?! This place is nice I guess. Not too fond of wearing community slippers in the bathroom, because you have to check your shoes at the door. Disgusting! The food was overpriced. My entree was a side portion of sauteed mushrooms, and my dessert was literally warm... Read More

I only wish i could remember the name of the spice-fried tofu dish which was better than the Colonel's secret recipe! Also fabulous were the lettuce cupped summer wraps. Beautiful organic wine. Thoroughly enjoyed the dark moody lighting and having my legs dangling down into sunken seats. Not ... Read More
