Master Critic Review
Gomi Korean Wine Bar
7.8
A wine-and-soju bar that filters Korean comfort through a party-friendly, snackable menu—more start-the-night energy than full dinner destination. The food hits best when you order one hearty anchor plus a couple of lighter bites, then let the bottle selection carry the rest of the experience.
Must-Try Dishes:
Bo ssam-style pork, Bibimbap, Chicken katsu
Scores:
Value: 7.1
Service: 7.8
Consistency: 7.6
Food Quality: 7.9
Atmosphere: 8.4

What makes it special: Korean bar food built around wine-and-soju nights.
Who should go: Wine drinkers who want food too
When to visit: Weeknight after 7 for best flow
What to order: Bo ssam, bibimbap, one snack plate
Insider tip: Treat it as 2 plates + a bottle—going bigger can feel overpriced.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; limited availability and tough after 6pm. Plan on walking, rideshare, or nearby paid garages.
Dress code: Smart casual to dressy-casual. Jeans are fine, but the room leans stylish—this is a night-out crowd.
Noise level: Moderate to loud later in the evening; easy to talk early, more energetic and buzzy after 8pm.
Weekend wait: 30–60 minutes without a reservation, especially after 7:30pm
Weekday lunch: Not applicable—primarily an evening-focused spot
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes – a few solid options like bibimbap and vegetable-forward small plates.
Vegan options: Limited – possible with modifications, but not a strong suit.
Gluten-free options: Limited – some naturally gluten-free dishes, but sauces may require caution.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes—especially if drinks are part of the plan. It’s lively, stylish, and low-pressure, but better for sharing plates than a full sit-down dinner.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Sometimes on weeknights if you arrive early. On weekends, expect a wait or plan to sit at the bar.
Is it kid-friendly? Not really. The vibe is adult, alcohol-forward, and best suited for evening outings rather than families.
Best For
Better for: Wine-and-soju nights, pregame dinners, and social energy with snackable Korean comfort food.
Skip if: You want a quiet meal, large portions for the price, or a traditional Korean dining experience—this is more bar than restaurant.
