About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for groups
  • Great for creative cocktails
Mister Tiger was born from a simple idea. To share the comfort and flavors of home-cooked meals our grandmother and mother lovingly prepared for us throughout our childhood.

We created a contemporary space that’s welcoming and approachable for all, with subtle touches of Korean tradition. Our menu features unapologetically authentic Korean dishes, flavors and recipes passed down through generations, recreated and perfected from memory.

Whether you're familiar with Korean cuisine or discovering it for the first time, our goal is to offer a warm, nostalgic dining experience that brings the comfort of an authentic Korean meal, just like the ones we enjoyed at home.

    The apps were more delicious than the entrees. The entrees I feel could use a bit more touch (like the perilla leaf on the spicy chicken) to elevate it more than korean food I can get at a KBBQ place.

    Super fresh and delicious and simply the warmest and most welcoming service ever. An absolutely fantastic experience! Highly recommend. And be sure to leave time for a bottle of Champagne at the Grand Cru wine bar across the street before dinner. A perfect two-stop night!

    We found the noise the level of a subways station, Dining rooms without charm or decoration, like a Marshall's changing room. Only decoration is a neon Tiger hangs on way to restrooms. Interior gave me a Chain restaurant vibe. Serviers were earnest , nice, and unsure. 2 servers took away a leftover to pack for us, but kitchen trashed it. Graciously made another and comped it. 3 food items: Korean Fried chicken with sesame seeds gentle, thick crusted .I thought the chicken itself dried and not as good a quality as a McNugget. Japche tasty, average. Bimibap was bland, with a single sinewy clumped string of tough protein needing a knife, which was not part of the table ware provided. 3% service charge was added. Items all are visually more appealing in the Website photos than in person. In all, including value, not up the every element of the many family run Korean restaurants in this big city. Parking very tough. Many clubs and dining places crowded on the main and side streets. M

    The food, drinks, and service were all AMAZING! For food, I highly recommend the fried chicken, braised short ribs, bulgogi, spicy stir fried pork, chive pancakes, and dumpling. For drinks, try grandma’s tiger balm, secret stash, or uprooted.

    We had a great dinner with great service! Between the two of us, we ordered the chive pancakes, braised short ribs and japchae and a few cocktails. All delicious! We’ll definitely be back to try everything else!
