We stopped here for dinner not knowing a lot about Korean food and we had an amazing experience. The food was all excellent and the service was friendly and helpful.
We can’t wait to go back!

Beyond worth the price and wait. It was a lot of fresh food for only about 17$. You could tell it was a family owned establishment and many students take advantage. It was a busy Friday around dinner time and staff was friendly. Of course I had to wait a bit for my order to be taken but food didn’t take long at all. The meal was filling and a great portion. I will definitely be back!

The restaurant is completely run by a man and his wife, who cooks all the meals. All of the menu items are delicious and the family who runs the restaurant is extremely kind- one of my favorite spots in the Vestal/Bing area. Even though there is only one chef, the wait time for food is quite short. It is important to be considerate of the rules at this restaurant- no more than 5 people can be seated at a table; no outside food and drink; etc. Although some reviews paint the owner in a negative light, don’t let this deter you from this local gem!

Don’t let the other reviews about the service deter you from here. There’s signs plastered everywhere saying they are short staffed and to be patient. There’s only two people working the whole place and it’s the husband and wife. I have been there twice now and both times the service was fine. Be respectful and they will be respectful back. If there are other people ordering food before you come in, they will make their food first and then when the food comes out they take your order so be patient. The food is actually incredible and it is SO homey. The best authentic Korean food you will get here in the 607. Give it a chance!

My third time coming here and the food is always impeccable. They were kind and welcoming to us, we ended up being the only ones eating there last night around 8pm. The flavors and extra little dishes they brought us to try made it a wonderful experience! I can’t wait to get more dukboki. I only got a photo after we were all done, it smelled so good we dove right into it

This is a small Oma/Opa run place. Reminds me of my time in the Army in South Korea. This is no frills, small place with great Korean Comfot food, especially on a cold upstate night. Kimchee Jigae and Yakimandu….. perfect cold weather food.
Just remember there are 2 people running the place including the cooking.

We were visiting from out of town and stopped by Man Nam for dinner and we’re so glad we did! The food was absolutely amazing, full of authentic flavors and cooked to perfection. But what truly made the experience unforgettable was the cook/waiter, who we believe is also the owner. He was incredibly kind, welcoming, and had a great sense of humor that made us feel right at home. If we ever find ourselves back in Vestal, we’ll definitely be coming here again. Highly recommend!

the owner was very sweet, they were understaffed but sat us quickly. he was very polite and straight to the point. to all the people going there, please be aware this is not a CUSTOM American restaurant. if the menu does not have it, they cannot make that alteration for you. for dietary restrictions I suggest finding something you CAN eat on the menu without attempting to substitute. the food was fresh, authentic and delicious. portion sizes were huge for the price!

One of my favorite places to eat! The food is absolutely delicious. I can’t say enough good things! I wish it were closer to me, I’d be there once per week at least.

“Amazing Korean Food!”
I visited this restaurant recently and the experience was fantastic. The kimchi was fresh and full of flavor, and the bulgogi was tender and perfectly seasoned. The staff were kind and attentive, and the atmosphere felt warm and authentic. Prices were very reasonable for the quality. Highly recommend if you’re looking for real Korean comfort food!
