Anytime Kitchen

Stopped by this establishment over the weekend in the evening when we were craving some Korean food. The restaurant is tucked away upstairs from street level and easy to overlook, but signage outside can help you locate it. Upon entry, the atmosphere was inviting with the room dimly lit and cozy. The service itself throughout our meal was fine. We ordered the Truffle Jjajang Ramyun ($18.95), Kimchi Jjigae ($30.95), Street Combo with Katsu ($23.95), Pork Galbi BBQ ($27.95), and a White Peach Cocktail ($17). Everything except the cocktail is pictured below. For a group of six, our bill came to around $150 before tips. Despite the dishes tasting decent, the small portions and steep prices left nothing to write home about. This seems more like a spot to enjoy a drink and a light bite rather than a full dining experience. It’s also worth noting that you get 10% off if you pay with cash. There was a spinning wheel by the reception area, although it appears there's a fee to play. If ambiance and getting a light bite is your priority, this spot could be worth a visit.

food was pretty nice, got the popcorn chicken, chicken katsu, and bulgolgi cupbop lunch special. super crispy katsu and i loved the sauce on the popcorn chicken. the bulgolgi was a little on the dry side and the rice came with an extremely unnecessary amount of mayonnaise. it was overall alright, getting over the fact that the rice was so filling due to so much mayo. if there was half the amount they put on there i would give this place a 5.

Really good and cheap korean comfort food. The place has some chill vibes and atmosphere. I tried the Bulgogi CupBob and the Chicken Teriyaki CupBob and both dishes were rich in flavor and personality. Highly recommended

Best hot pot I’ve ever had! Located right next to my hotel I Wandered in at 2 am and ordered a seafood hot pot to go, I had had a whole adventure around the city that day and needed a late night meal! Usually I add chilie or lime to hot pot for flavor but this was perfect by itself! Love love love! Went back the next night w my friends!

Anytime Kitchen seriously has all the Korean comfort food vibes. The fish cake skewers were so good & savory, the pork soup dumplings totally hit the spot, and the kimchi cold noodles were so refreshing and well portioned. Definitely a go-to when those cravings hit!

There are so many Korean restaurants in NYC’s Koreatown and sometimes it’s hard to choose which to go. I learned of Anytime Kitchen on social media so I figured I’ll try them out. Good thing we did but we were thoroughly impressed. The portions were generous and each dish had its unique, bold, and rich flavors. An absolute delight! The overall vibe was super cool and chill. A great place for a date or a casual hang out spot with your friends and family.

I always come to Anytime Kitchen whenever I’m in Koreatown, and it never disappoints! The food and service are perfect, and make sure to ask for Annette if given the chance. She made our night so special!
