Osamil is an unassuming gem nestled among the bustling streets of Manhattan’s Koreatown. Its minimalist decor belies the creativity and passion that goes into each dish, making it a must-visit destination for any foodie.

The Fried Chicken Wings at Osamil are a game-changer. Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, these wings are tossed in a sweet and spicy sauce that will leave you wanting more. I ordered them as an appetizer but ended up devouring the entire plate by myself - they’re that good! The portion size is generous, so be prepared to share (or not).

The Shrimp at Osamil are succulent and flavorful, cooked to perfection in a savory sauce that complements their natural sweetness. I ordered them as part of the tapas selection and was blown away by the explosion of flavors on my palate. The texture is tender but firm, making each bite a delight.

The Other Entrees at Osamil are just as impressive. The beef short ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender, while the pork belly is crispy on the outside and unctuous within. But it’s the seafood options that really stole my heart - particularly the pan-seared salmon, which was cooked to a perfect medium-rare and served with a side of citrusy slaw.

The restaurant has a lively and bustling atmosphere, with many people dining together. The tables are filled with an assortment of dishes, and there is a sense of activity in the background, suggesting that the restaurant is popular and well-liked by its patrons.
