I went to celebrate my birthday. The service was great, the food was really good and they surprised me with a little cake with a candle. Highly recommend!
Birthday dinner for my girlfriend it was a great experience with a very impressive view
The view was great, service was amazing food was good but the ambiance was a little cold and undone.
Excellent as always nothing more to add. I hate character counts.
Good vibes and great food. Would definitely go back
Me encantó este Restaurante, comida buenísima y precios razonables para la calidad, tiene unas vistas increíbles, el restaurante es bien bonito, sin duda voy a volver 5/5
A very beautiful atmosphere and with very attentive staff
The marinated kalbi and the prime ribeye were amazing and are our favorite go-to items whenever we come here. Their soups are amazing too. The view is beautiful. This is a great place to take a date or celebrate a special occasion. Their non-alcoholic drink, the “yuzu fresh,” is very delicious and is highly recommended for those who don’t drink alcohol.
My first time trying Korean barbecue and boy was it amazing. I’m glad I chose to go to Gaonnuri for my first time. The view was to die for. Rich was our server that evening and was extremely kind and knowledgeable. I’m from central Virginia so I’m not in NYC as often but the next time I’m in the city I will be heading back.
Everything was good
Amazing food and views! It is a great place for a special occasion.
It was wonderful. They were very understanding even though we were just a teeny bit late because the garage we had reserved was not accessible so we had to scurry to find another parking arrangement. The staff was friendly and the food was great like always! Love the ambiance and the beautiful view of the city!
Very nice place. Requested a window table for the views but didn’t get accommodated. Place is nice with great views. Drinks great and so was good
Staff was efficient and attentive to our table.
Amazing food, amazing service, amazing view. Everything was just amazing. 100% coming back here!
Great culinary experience with and amazing view of the city😍
Starting from maitre d’ who was shining up to a table while ignoring the people (us) waiting to be seated. Then overly intrusive wait staff on other end of spectrum. Mediocre food and high prices. Only thing going for this place is the views of downtown Manhattan.
We came here for my mothers Birthday. The place has a great views of the city and has a very classy vibe. The host and server were very attentive and friendly from the time we set food off of the elevator. Over all our stay was very enjoyable and the food delicious. Would recommend to anyone looking for a date night out or a special event. Thanks for everything Gapnnuri!
Upscale dining with gorgeous view. Some of the best Korean barbecue in the world!
The service was slow and the food was kind of bland--maybe a bad day?. But everything else was great!
Amazing food with an even better view. Marinated Galbi was our favorite.
Excellent spot. Amazing service and cool views and appetizers were great! Get the fried chicken.
Wonderful good. Gorgeous views. Safety during Covid
Always top food, service and drinks.
I love the food, I love the view. Bonus points for having a few craft beer options also.
Food was great. Beautiful view. Covid social distancing and mask were enforced. Really excellent food.
Beautiful views of the city! Outstanding service, Great food, quiet/moderate noise level and sophisticated! What more can you ask for? Perfect place for a date night or a special occasion.
It is a beautiful place with amazing NY views! Will go back fore sure!
There was no wait time with reservation and the person assisting with the cooking explained all the plates thoroughly. We were extremely satisfied with the foods.
It was a great experience with family. Celebrated moms birthday there.
The scenery was great, however the food was not. Food was very bland and had absolutely no flavor. Waiter got a little annoyed that I wanted to put salt on my meat which I found weird. Rarely checked on us, we thought we’d be able to cook ourselves however that wasn’t the case.
Great food and amazing space. Was so nice to feel semi-normal again and eat out at a great restaurant.
Great service especially by the waitress. The meat was very tender and in good quality.
Great evening, beautiful ambiance and awesome food
Will definitely be back and recommend to family and friends
The view is amazing. Restaurant is a great place for night out with friends or date. Food was delicious. But quality of meet was not wonderful.
My return visit did not disappoint. Requests were followed and the birthday surprise was truly one at that. Thank you very much and I will be back ASAP.
Service and food was great! The view and restaurant itself is very nice!
The food was amazing, great quality meats. The service was also great. Great views and great overall atmosphere. Highly recommended.
Beautiful venue with incredible views, delicious menu items - can’t go wrong with any choice, great top shelf whiskey and wine selections, and the service top notch. This is the place for a fantastic dining experience.
Delicious food, great service, and amazing view!
