Omoni house

Proper Korean cooking on the Shambles—bibimbap, Korean fried chicken and banchan that actually taste like they're made with care.

Walk down York's most photogenic street and you'll find yourself in a snug Korean restaurant that's doing things properly. The menu reads like someone actually knows what they're doing: there's bibimbap that arrives sizzling in a proper stone bowl, Korean fried chicken with a shatteringly crisp exterior, and banchan (those little side dishes) that aren't an afterthought. The room itself is intimate without feeling cramped—exposed brick, warm lighting, and enough buzz to feel alive without shouting over everyone else. You're eating proper food here, not Westernised approximations, and it shows in how 293 reviewers have rated this place.
