Dosirak means lunch box in Korean, and this restaurant is small but comfortable, with warm service.  Great Korean food at the DoSirak Korean Restaurants in New York City, and very reasonably priced.  The decor and atmosphere is mellow and inviting.  Wonderful selection of Korean drinks and liquors.  The bulgogi, which is marinated strips of sirloin steak is amazing.    Woodburning brick stove and lots of art.

The Kori Korean Restaurant In New York City is refined and attractive.  The high-ceilings and rust-colored walls accent the exposed ductwork nicely.  The food is great - The bulgogi is amazing, as is the bibimbop (with vegetables and roots).  Also great is the Jap che (noodles with veggies in brown sauce).
