  • * **Korean in Midtown**: Try *Boka* or *Kunjip* for Korean BBQ or bibimbap.

  • replying to u/jahblaze: Haven’t had much but we did the Omakase at sushi nonaka and at the end they gave us Korean fried chicken as a take home. Not sure about why they do this but it was fitting of that description.

    I like them a lot. My favorite now is Pelicana, but they have a thicker coating than Kyochon. Boka is much closer.

  • replying to u/lblblblblblblblblb-: Used to take every out of town guest to Boka on St Marks. They have now closed but reopened within another restaurant’s space a few blocks away but I haven’t re-vetted it yet

    The chicken is still spectacular, (and the spiciest you can get around honestly) but they vibe is completely different and it just doesn’t do it for me anymore like it used to.

  • replying to u/crazeman: Boka has AYCE wings + beer for \~$27 during certain days/hours. You basically break even after you order 1 small order of chicken + 1 beer so it's a pretty good deal if you can eat more than that.

    their wings hit like crack too.

  • Pretty tasty, but you gotta be hungry for it to be worth it.
