The Scene – The stylish, starkly designed space has a vaguely cinematic theme. Expanses of black wood, white screens and oversized tables give it a comfortable modern feel. Service is friendly, hip and understated, quite suited to the sleek downtown crowd. Extras, like a film series, DJs and occasional celebrity sightings, keep the atmosphere dynamic. – – The Food – The Korean dishes here are a bit more delicate than the potent fare found 30 blocks north, but the kitchen is hardly pulling its punches.

Fun place....
by Foodie75 at Citysearch
Haven't been to DoHwa for awhile so popped in last week. Glad to see this place hasn't lost it's edge.
Tried some of their new dishes (tuna tartar and squid bibimbop) yummy!
Will definitely be returning!
- Pros: Awesome Food

Very Disappointing
by mojo51 at Citysearch
I was upset after leaving this restaurant. When we arrived, the place was completely empty and yet it took 10-15 minutes for the waitress to take our drinks order (she gave us a song and dance about how she had a hard night or something), and later the waiter pushed my friend and I out even though half the tables were still empty (maybe the end of his shift? That's fine--it's okay to tell me that, but not to insult me and give me some BS reason to leave).
I've been to MANY Korean restaurants in NYC from inexpensive to upscale. Don't go here. Go to one of the restaurants on the East 30s, where you will get good service and food that's as good or better..
- Pros: Good food
- Cons: Terrible service

THE BEST EXPERIENCE--DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS PLACE
by robnsteph at Citysearch
We had never had Korean food before and it was AMAZING it was the best dining experience in about 10 years. The food was exceptional and the staff was so attentive. Brian the manager was so personable coming over to the table to even recommend a lounge in the area. This is a place to go for a dining experience like no other. ENJOY--we can't wait to return. Thanks Brian and Staff
- Pros: The whole experience/ the perfect ambiance
- Cons: NONE
