Just visited The Maze Eatery & Bar and it was an exceptional dining experience from start to finish! The drinks were a perfect kickoff, especially the Maze Mojito and the vibrant Dragonfruit Cosmopolitan, not to mention the fun assortment of flavored vodka shots.The appetizers set a high bar. The Uni Cream Croquette was creamy and luxurious, while the Bacon Gnocchi Corn Cheese was comfort food at its finest.The mains were equally impressive. The Marinated Whole Eel Over Furikake Rice was flavorful and perfectly cooked, and the Kimchi Bacon Cream Pasta was an innovative blend of flavors that tickled the palate.We topped off the meal with Green Tea Mochi, which was the perfect sweet note to end on. The vibes at The Maze are lively and inviting. -

I was looking forward to trying this restaurant in the city. When I arrived I found parking on the street nearby. I found the restaurant, and it was on the upper level. When I walked in, I loved the decor. We were sat and served by Serin and Roberto. We started with Maze Martini and the Maze Mojito, which were really good drinks. For our appetizers, we had the Grilled scallops, which were good but a tad rubbery and the chicken wings, which were good. For our entrées we had the garlic butter shrimp and the scallop gorgonzola gnocchi. The shrimp was good, but the gnocchi was delicious! For dessert, we had the green tea mochi, which was tasty. We ordered everything via computer. It was a really good experience! -

We came to this place on a Sunday night since it was open late. We ordered a classic mint mojito ($13) and margaritas ($15) off of the tabletop device they have available for individuals to order off of. The drinks were good, but not anything out of this world, as there are some super delicious places to eat/drink at in NYC.Things to consider:1. There is a very small elevator that goes up to the 3rd floor that gets you to the bar/restaurant. It barely fit 3 of us, so I would recommend taking the stairs, right past the elevator.2. They ID.3. You will order everything on a tabletop device, so you will have to call over the waiter for any questions or recs.We didn’t try the food at all due to having already eaten dinner at a different place, but the food is Korean fusion and if you’re into this type of food, this place is decorated very cute for a girls night out or a cute date night experience for food and drinks. There is greenery and faux flowers hanging from all of the walls and ceiling giving it a super cute look. Perfect place to go to for pictures and cute backgrounds! -

Love the vibe and atmosphere here! Highly recommend as one of the best resto/bar to visit in K-Town. Definitely try the soju, the omelette looking item. Service is good, falls to passable if really busy. -

I was skeptical if the pictures online were going to match the actual decor in person, but this place exceeded my friends and Is expectations! I love the vibes here, the employees were really friendly and attentive with refills, and prices for food and drinks were pretty good as well. I cant speak for weekend days, but coming in on a Tuesday evening it was lowkey and really nice. Will definitely be bringing more people here! -

You will be asked for ID before you get on the elevator and again at the host stand so just FYI. The music is loud so dont expect to have lots of conversation but the ambiance in here is great. We got 2 martinis, 1 mojito and a bulgogi quesadilla + chicken wings. The drinks were pretty strong and the food was good as well. Our bill came out to $106 after taxes and their automatic 20% service charge. -

Great cocktail list… Me and my partner tried the maze margarita and the Paloma and it was great. Awesome decor will come comeback.Also you can rent a power bank just in case of that phone is dying -

Loved the ambiance here! The ceiling lights are super cool too and nice for pictures. Food is okay—tried the Crispy Dumplings, Grilled Pork Belly, and Special Army Stew (with ramen). For drinks, the Passionfruit and Lychee Soju were super sweet but pretty tasty. -

If you arent looking for this place, you will miss it in more ways than one. This is a little bit of a hidden gem on the 2nd floor on the given address. There is an elevator that has a sign in it asking people not to jump in it 😳, like that needs saying, or you will get stuck. The stairs are steep, so pick your poison.Now, to the restaurant. We were greeted promptly by someone who seemed to the host, bartender, and server. He handled it with grace and was so pleasant getting us seated and taking care of us while other staff arrived. We ordered the sampler and bulgogi, which was more than enough food for two people. For drinks, we had the bottled strawberry soju, a blackberry margarita, and a passion fruit margarita. Everything was great, including the atmosphere...it was a vibe. -

Review 12 (2024-06-10 - Rating: 4)
I definitely need to come back here and not save this as the last place I go to to end my night. It was pretty empty by the time I got in there which was around two in the morning. We ended up getting free drinks because they were winding down and the bartender was cool so we had a nice chat. I cant give it five stars because I didnt have a true full on experience here, but its definitely worth coming back to. Though the space is narrow, it is pretty long and more spacious than anticipated.Ill be back to give a more fair review, but I can at least say so far so good! -

It is the best Korean restaurant in NYC. (Given there are not many lol ) good selection of drinks and their food are definitely restaurant level. The only thing is if there were more leg rooms under the seats too crowded -

Pros: great service, food and drink come quickly, ambianceCons: shady elevator to get up to the joint, expensive soju, typical late night oily foods -

I visited all the way from Miami looking for a chill yet vibrant ambience where my friends and I could pre-game before a concert at nearby Madison Square Garden. Not only was The Maze 32 the perfect spot to be at that particular moment but what truly made the experience special was their knowledgeable hidden gem of a bartender Valerie. She was able to make personalized recommendations on drinks and food based on our flavor preferences. We felt instantly welcome and will definitely visit again when near K-Town! -

Came here for a post-dinner drink after hearing good things about it on the web. Located on the third floor of one of the various K-Town buildings, which adds a layer of “where-is-this-place” coolness. We sat at the bar and arrived just before the end of happy hour. I had a lychee martini, which was delicious but not really memorable. The vibe of the place however is spot on and it has some really cool lighting features at the bar and in the back. This is a perfect happy hour spot with great service, good drinks. Can’t speak for the food but I would definitely come back to try.Come here for happy hour K-Town coolness. -

The best bar in ktown. All the staff are super helpful and nice, and the food is amazing. I love their mojitos and their selection of whiskey. The blueberry crush is SOOOO good. Food is amazing too. Their mussels are honestly the best in the city and that’s coming from someone who’s been to almost every single michelin star French restaurant in the city. At the bar, ask for Ariel, Claire, or Kevin. They are the NICEST baretenders you’ll ever have.. -

After picking this restaurant on a whim, we were blown away by the unique and fun atmosphere with amazing service to match. The spicy pork over rice was fantastic, each drink we tried was beautifully prepared, and the value of what we purchased was next level. WILL BE BACK!!! -

Cute bar aesthetic, comfortable for friends hanging out. Server was kind and funny. Only downside is that its on the third floor with tiny stairs that may collapse at any moment. The alternative is a tiny elevator that will not fit all your friends. -

Ive been to The Maze many times now because its reliable and always a good time. The service and the atmosphere are great. Their food is just alright which is the reason behind 4 stars instead of 5, but that hasnt stopped me from going back.Its a good spot if youre just 1 or 2 people to sit at the bar (8-10 seats) and good from larger groups too. -

Really cool place to just chill and drink and listen to awesome music! They had a nice mix of kpop, khiphop, techno, and older stuff like Queen. Staff were all over the place but easy to flag down and prices were reasonable if youre in a group. -

Was literally coming down in the elevator from the weird karaoke upstairs and heard the music playing so me and my friend stopped here and thankfully we did. The lady at the bar was so nice and cool! The vibes was good and the decor in the restaurant was so nice! Drink 10/10 , can’t wait to try the food when I come back! Oh and the music was on point -

Review 41 (2023-11-04 - Rating: 5)
I went here a few times and really enjoyed myself. The service is good as long as it’s not super busy, drinks were nice and strong, atmosphere is top tier - a great backdrop for group pics as long as everyone is dressed decent. It’s sorta cozy in there, can feel even smaller when it’s hella packed. Service is always fast, friendly, they always check on you to see if you’re good, or ready for the bill (but not pushy). I will say though music tend to be way way too loud, like ear ringing loud sometimes so don’t be afraid to ask they lower it a bit. The bathroom could be a little more organized and sanitary but again don’t hesitate to point it out. Food prices wasn’t too bad, typical of what I’d expect for a restaurant in that area, and it helps that the food is really good. I’ve tried their fries, dumplings, wings, and a few other things I can’t remember but I can’t say I ever left there and I didn’t like something. My only gripe is the elevator that take you up to the place feels like a death trap. It’s soo TINY! The sign inside it says 5 person capacity and I’m like where the other 2 people fitting!? Maybe 5 slim people but baby if you and friends are big guys or some curvy girls with some hips just minus 2 people or take the steps - just a heads up if you’re going with a big group. Everytime I get in the elevator I pray the lil rickety thing makes it up and down. Anyway overall this place passes the vibe check. The waiters and hosts even have electronic name tags that have their name. So cute! And the bar look like a lush green oasis. Please don’t hesitate to go. It opens in the afternoon but it’s also good to pop in for some late night eats and vibe out or if you’re in the area looking for something to take away as well. -

The kimchi creamy pasta and fried squid tentacles were a-maze-ing!!! The aesthetics was also super cute and just chefs kiss. I like that you can easily order through an iPad at the table and the food comes out pretty fast. Highly recommend if youre looking for a chill place to eat and hang out with friends. Tanya and Rico are the best! -

Wow! The Maze is an absolute gem!

You absolutely must try it! 👍 Also their Kimchi Cream Pasta is legendary for a reason. 💖 As a Korean, I had high expectations, and The Maze exceeded them all.And finally, the Green Tea Mochi. SUPER DELICIOUS JUST TRY 🫶 -

Great atmosphere with a wonderful view and nice bar.

The place sometimes gets very cramped and hard to seat larger groups more than four and the price is a little high for the food, but otherwise a nice place to hangout! -

Amazing ambiance. We came here on a Tuesday and we’re sat right away, but there were few free tables. The server was attentive and kind. The best part of the meal were the fried dumplings in my opinion, however I won’t lie, they tasted like the frozen ones you buy at H mart. I ordered the bulgogi fajita and my tortilla were soaked in juices from the meat. The cocktails were great, just small. -

Went with a large group of friends from law school and we were treated kindly despite our large group size. Soju was tasty and a favorite at the table. Cauliflower appetizer was amazing. Vegetarian and vegan options available. Note: be mindful of the stairs if you choose to take them, as they’re carpeted and very, very small and narrow. The elevator gets a little funny and likes to stall and it’s incredibly narrow, so maybe not all that accessible. -

Staff was friendly and attentive. Decor was beautiful. I would not call this Korean fusion, I would call this Mexican fusion with Korean elements. Which is fine, just different if youre expecting more predominatly Korean. My martini was made well, jalapeno poppers were good, albeit not Korean influenced. -

Great for different group sizes ranging from 4-20+! We were here for happy hour and a quick snack before dinner, the drinks were fantastic and they have pretty good selection of alcohol so they can make pretty much anything you want if you ask. The seating next to the window is the best so try and sit there if you can. Alternatively if you want to just decompress with a drink the bar is a great choice (they even let you charge your phone at the bar if they arent too busy and if you ask nicely)Good experience overall! Nice little upstairs gem in the middle of Korea Town! -

Staff arent the most attentive, even on a slower night like Tuesday, but the drinks were tasty and the fries were perfectly fried and seasoned. -

First time we came here it was amazing! Beautiful and cool drinks and an awesome bartender! Recently went back and they completely changed the bar menu, not the original cool innovative drinks we had the first time. Now its just like every other generic bar in NYC. Atmosphere and staff are amazing, just super bummed about the bar menu change. -

The food and drinks are worth the visit. The music can be really loud though. Like a night club without the dancing. If the music was brought down a bit, it would definitely be worth a full 5 stars -

Was looking for a karaoke with an available room. When we got on the elevator, someone made a stop on the third floor. When the doors opened i was captivated by the vibes. I couldn’t get a karaoke room, so i def came back! I had a passion fruit margarita, the champagne mescal,looks can be deceiving, and a lychee soju, which is definitely a must have. Good vibes and great drinks. Valerie, our bartender, was excellent and made our drinks with experienced skill and craft. Didn’t get to try the food but will try to come back for that again to go with the great drinks! -

Situated on the 3rd floor of a building on crowded Manhattan street, this is Korean eatery meet Tropical decor in the heart of K-Town! The drinks are absolutely delicious and staff was chatty!We tried their Lychee Soju pitcher which was lit from the bottom (see photo) and was incredibly delicious! The small glasses given to drink this drink was make it seem novel and cute! We also got fries to much on and the special/house sauce was amazing! -

Review 140 (2021-10-24 - Rating: 4)
The spot itself is great, the happy hours drinks are very reasonably priced and pretty good in variety, and the service is good too. The reason im giving this 4 stars is because the bartender (i forgot the name) could be a bit more customer-service-oriented. I went with my wife one day after work and my wife ordered 2 drinks-one for her and the other for me-right before happy hour ended.The bartender gave her a wrong drink and my wife, upon realizing, informed her. The bartender stated that she gave her the right drink even though my wife and i order the same thing time after time. My wife ordered a vodka soda and what she received was a gin and tonic. Additionally, the bartender since happy hour was over if she made another one shed have to charge her full price. It wasnt a language barrier, it was simply the bartender not wanting to appear/seem wrong i assume. Either way, we reflected her mistake on her tip so no biggie, but im posting so management can make sure all staff provide great service. People are just starting to go out and settle into normal nightlife so theres a delicate balance to strike. -

I recently visited Maze Bar and was thoroughly impressed by the service provided by their bartender, Dan. From the moment we walked in, Dan made us feel welcome with his warm and engaging personality.The standout feature of our experience was undoubtedly the drinks. Each cocktail was a masterpiece - perfectly balanced, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. Dan demonstrated not only skill and professionalism but also a passion for mixology, which was evident in every sip.If youre looking for a place with fantastic drinks and even better service, make sure to ask for Dan at Maze BarRating: 5 stars -

Second time returning here and overall it was great. The service, the food, and the drinks! The server was kind enough to get my drink “fixed” when I had asked for less sweet and they forgot.The only thing to call out was the seafood kimchi pancakes that actually shouldn’t be called that because in ktown if you got pancakes they will be traditional style and not like the pictures below (like fried fritters). I also could barely taste seafood & kimchi in it. Try something else from the menu! -
