About Hojokban :

Hojokban is a Korean restaurant built on the spirit of sharing, bringing people together over meals that are sincere and flavorful. Founded in Seoul’s iconic Cheongdam neighborhood in 2019, the restaurant quickly became one of the buzziest and most beloved in the city, balancing retro charm with inventive takes on Korean classics. Hojokban expanded to New York City in 2023, where it has quickly become one of Manhattan’s top dining destinations and has been featured in The New York Times, Eater, and The Infatuation.
