octo.nyc has quietly become one of my favorite spots in Koreatown.
I’ve been back more times than I can count over the years, and every visit reminds me why I keep returning. The food is thoughtful, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the menu does a great job showcasing the unique intersection of Korean and Chinese cuisine through dishes that are both comforting and deeply satisfying.
At $58.95 per person, their tasting menu is one of the best deals in New York City. In a city where tasting menus seem to get more expensive by the day, it’s refreshing to find a restaurant that’s still delivering a full experience at a price that feels genuinely reasonable.
Most importantly, the food is just really good. This isn’t a place I recommend because it’s affordable. I recommend it because I genuinely enjoy eating here, and the value only makes it that much easier to come back.
If you haven’t been, put it on your list.
Swipe through to see the full tasting menu! Note: Dessert not included.
