"Atoboy is a Korean restaurant from the team behind Atomix and a bunch of other spots on this guide (Hojokban, Her Name is Han). And like a lot of those places, the narrow, windowless, mostly concrete space has a minimalist feel to it. Your only option is a four-course $75 (gratuity included) dinner, with plenty of possible add-ons. Dishes change often, but your meal might include a plate of meaty yellowtail with green mustard and some shrimp mandu in a lobster broth. This is one of the top prix fixe options in the city, and it's always a fun, impressive, and surprisingly casual experience." - sonal shah, bryan kim, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, carina finn koeppicus
"Atoboy, from the Atomix team, is fine dining for people who don’t like fine dining. This Flatiron spot serves a four-course $75 prix fixe in a casual space with scuffed concrete floors, and their food is just as impressive as anything you’ll find at a spot with an overbearing maître d’. The menu changes frequently, but the Korean-inspired dishes are always one of a kind. You might eat some octopus served over a warm sweet potato puree, or you might have snap peas with kimchi and foie gras. Whatever you get, be sure to add on the optional fried chicken course." - bryan kim, kenny yang, willa moore, will hartman
"An acclaimed Nomad restaurant mentioned as part of the same group's portfolio, noted alongside other successful projects by the same operators." - Melissa McCart
"Together with his wife, Ellia, Chef Junghyun Park wows diners from start to finish at this Gramercy hot spot with their unapologetic passion for Korean food. The fact that they eschew any kind of city pretense in favor of a deeply welcoming atmosphere simply adds to the allure.The space, which leans grungy-chic, was recently refurbished to feature rustic floors, communal tables, and singular artwork. The menu woos locals, visitors, and foodies alike with its adventurous—yet approachable—take on Korean cooking. Here you may find the likes of braised eggplant with snow crab and tomato; or crispy fried chicken brined in pineapple juice, coated with tempura batter, and served with a ginger-peanut butter sauce." - Michelin Inspector
"Dim the lights, put on some Marvin Gaye, and eat Atoboy’s food with the confidence and leisure of someone who doesn’t have to do the dishes. This Korean spot in Flatiron has a special delivery and takeout menu with entrees like galbi, gochujang chicken, and sunchokes wiith oyster mushrooms. Almost everything comes with banchan, kimchi, and white rice, and they also have a wine list with bottles exclusively in the $30 range. You can check their Instagram for more details and place your order online." - hannah albertine
