I won’t lie – the best thing about this restuarant is the location. It’s fun to be in the West Village as it reminds me of my youth (poor Ann, who must hear me tell the same stories as we walk the same blocks) but a very, very close second place reason to visit Do Hwa is the food. This is high quality Korean served up slightly fancier than the perhaps more authentic Flushing competitors. The dumpling soup and fried oysters were out of sight. The pork ribs were a little greasy, as was the beef tenderloin but, hey, sometimes that’s okay. I noticed that we got a few less of those little plates of appitizers than we do in Flushing, but what we did get was fantastic. We left completely full and didn’t have dessert. Around 4 AM I got up for a shot of Maalox, but I knew that was bound to happen. In all, a place I recommend.
