" Ssam is such a great little spot in Midtown! The food is clean, fresh, and super tasty. I personally loved the bulgogi more than the spicy pork, but both are worth trying out. Portions are awesome for the price. Just a little awkward since there's no place to sit down, but it’s perfect for a takeaway. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was a last-minute lunch decision, and I’m so glad I chose The SSam! The food is fresh, healthy, and delicious. I had the spicy pork ssam, and it was well-seasoned and filling. The owner is super passionate about his food, and it shows. Definitely a great experience and I will be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The SSam caught my attention because it’s quite different from typical fast-casual spots in NYC. I was pleasantly surprised by the freshness of the ingredients. I tried the spicy pork and found the flavors to be well balanced. Portions were more than enough for one meal, and both sauces offered were fantastic! Will be recommending this place to my friends.

" First time trying The SSam, and it surely won’t be my last. I ordered a half and half of bulgogi and tofu, both were incredible! The flavors hit all the right notes, and the sauces they provided added an amazing twist. Portion-wise, it was more than enough for lunch. The takeout was so neatly packed, which also earns them extra points. Highly recommend! Don't skip the peanut sauce! " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved the fusion of Korean and Vietnamese flavors! The bulgogi was marinated perfectly, and the rice paper wraps held everything together nicely. I tried the dumplings as well, and they were juicy and full of flavor. One order was enough for two meals! Highly recommended for anyone looking for something different for lunch. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a healthy yet filling lunch, look no further than The SSam! The freshness of the meats and vegetables is unparalleled. I ordered the bulgogi and spicy pork wraps, and they did not disappoint! Portion sizes are impressive, especially for the price. Can't recommend enough! " (*Curated Review*)
