## About Jungsik

Jungsik earned its third star in 2024, the year MICHELIN inspectors stopped treating Korean cuisine as a genre to be qualified and started judging it on the same terms as anything else in the three-star tier — and chef Jungsik Yim's tasting menu answers that plainly. Doenjang and dashi share a pot; a single scallop course arrives cured in nuruk and lacquered in a reduction built from three-year-old ganjang. The dining room does the same work the kitchen does: bare oak tables, low bronze light, nothing on the wall competing with the food. This is the New York outpost of the original Seoul restaurant, but it does not read as a franchise — the pacing, the sourcing, the register of the room are built for Tribeca. Reservations open thirty days out and close within the hour.

1. ★★★★★ 5.0 Editorial sample The bibim rice course alone justifies the reservation fight. Everything after it just kept building — the short rib course had more structure than most restaurants' entire menus. — Daniel Ostrower · 14 May 2026 Response from Jungsik Thank you, Daniel — that course is the one we argue about changing least. See you again soon.
2. ★★★★★ 5.0 Editorial sample Went for our anniversary and the pacing was the real luxury — nearly three hours and never once felt slow. The nuruk-cured scallop was the best single bite I've had this year. — Grace Lindqvist · 2 March 2026

### How far in advance should I book a table at Jungsik?

Reservations release thirty days ahead and go quickly, especially for Friday and Saturday seatings — book the moment the window opens if you have a specific date in mind.

### Is Jungsik affiliated with the original restaurant in Seoul?

Yes. The Tribeca location is the sister restaurant to chef Jungsik Yim's original Seoul restaurant, sharing a culinary philosophy but running its own kitchen and seasonal menu in New York.
