Reviews
we went during NYC restaurant week and tried everything on this menu!! the highlights definitely were the Tuna Tartare and Miso Black Cod, came in great portions and were so deliciously flavored. i didnt love the desserts here but overall was great also honorary mention is the Yuzu Matcha Magic, if you want something citrusy and on the sweeter end - this is for you!! will definitely come back for other things on their menu.
The restaurant week menu was soooo delicious! Highly recommend the shrimp and the seafood bowl! For cocktails I love the yuzu matcha one! Need reservation since the space is not big and it’s always busy
Super yummy modern tapas Korean! I loved both of the steak dishes - 8282 steak (NY hanger steak) and the steak frites. The cheesy tteokbokki was warm and really fun. The octopus was my least favorite, it lacked a bit of flavor? Menu has something for everyone for sure! We waited 1h for a walk in table on a Sunday
My wife and I stayed in the LES side for a weekend getaway this past weekend. Our favorite spot for all the food we ate was here. We’re so happy we tried 8282 for dinner on Friday night because everything was delicious. The vibe was right from the food, to the service and the decor. Must try the KFC, tuna tar tar and the 8282 steak(just make sure to dip the steak in the sweet potato puree and pesto at the same time)!!! We’ll be dreaming about this meal until we come back 😬
I've walked past this restaurant so many times and finally made a reservation and I'm glad I did. The service was absolutely wonderful everyone was friendly and when my food was ready who ever was available brought it over and explained the dish so I got to meet everyone and got my food fast. I was sat at the bar which was fun to be able to watch the drinks get made. I got the beet salad, scallops and the shrimp ikura. The beet salad was the best beet salad I ever had and definitely want to return for that, the scallops were so delicious and everything blended well and the shrimp ikura was fresh and a really great amount I left full. The yuzu matcha magic was absolutely magic best cocktail ever. Loved the restaurant and service. 2nd visit was absolutely another 5 star visit. I had to get the beet salad again which was just as delicious as the first time, this time I did the pre fix I got the octopus, the miso cod and the panna cotta and wow everything was perfect the flavors were on point the octopus has a lovely char and the burrata helped balance the spice the miso wow the mushroom sauce and it was tender with the glaze honestly chefs kiss the noodles were refreshing and the panna cotta definitely a favorite. Service at the bar was absolutely wonderful friendly fast the drinks were on point and I was even given a lovely lime shot. Definitely my favorite spot and can't wait to go back and try the other items.
