Great food with a lot of attention to presentation. Definitely for sharing, as the portions are relatively large. While it's not reminiscent of Korean food, it stands on its own as something unique. The batata tortilla was skilfully made. The arroz con leche was more refreshing than sweet or flavorful.

The staff was attentive. Although the kitchen was slow, the place was welcoming and I didn't mind the wait.

We’ve been living in BA for a month and this food was some of the best we’ve had. So good in fact that I ordered extra to takeaway for lunch for the next day. Unbeatable flavor and creative dishes that were better than many Korean spots we frequent in NYC. And finally good rice in BA which is not easy to come by 🙌🏻. Our wine was also delicious and the owner was incredibly warm and welcoming with great recommendations (and great English!)

If you come to Na Num for traditional Korean food, you'd be better elsewhere, but if you come with an open mind and are willing for a blend of Argentinia ingredients and flavor of Korea, this is the place. Na Num is a Korean fusion cuisine, as such, their profile is a mixture of adjusted Korean flavor and Argentinian taste, and a beautiful combination at that.

For reference, I was born and raised in Asia and have had plenty of Korean food, and my dining partner is a born and raised Argentinian with limited exposure to Asian spice and cuisine, but we both had a good experience and were impressed by different dishes. The potion of each plate are small, but they are fun and perfect for ordering several and trying with your friends.

The banchan degustation were probably the most Korean flavor you could try, with different type of pickle veggies and kimchi. Nothing much to talk about, they are as standard as it goes for kimchi. But they could be a bit heavy for Argentinian who are not used to the intense sourness and the spiciness.

The loin tartare was light and delicious. The combination of beef and melon were light and gentle, refreshing and suitable for an entry into Korean food. I enjoy the this, and it's not heavy as you expect beef tartare supposed to be.

We love, love, love the Mussle Ceviche and it's definitely one of the best mussle dish I've had. The mussle were fresh, the Korean bean sauce and blueberries just blend so well, to give the dish and intense taste full of umami, with a spiciness kick at the end. Absolutely delicious and I just want to lick the plate clean. This is what i would consider the peak of fusion, where you could combine ingredients of two countries and their palette for the most creative and delicious dish.

The ribs were the main course. It's a decent portion for one person. They are not your typical barbeque rib, it's marinate with Korean bean paste and sesame. It's sweet, slightly sour, and give out a burst of umani. The meat is marinated well and grill to perfection, and just slide right off the bone for you. It's definitely a signature and a star by itself, especially if you're bored of the traditional sweet Korean bqq or the meat dense asado with little seasoning. It fits perfectly well in niche between both for people that looking for something more creative and yummy.

We went at 8:30pm and the restaurant was not packed. We were seated right away and service was prompt. The sous chef after hearing i had questions, came to our table to have a chat with us and passionately talked about each dishes. He told us that this restaurant is an experimental vision of the head chef, that she wanted to mix the two cuisine and she didn't adhere to strict traditions, but rather just something fun that carries the flavor of both worlds, and for i said that she certainly succeeded. I'd definitely be back again to try the rest of her vision.

It’s only loosely Korean-inspired but it undeniably tastes good. Four dishes was just right for two of us, and we enjoyed all of them — my favourites were the pork rib with its fabulously thick umami glaze, and, surprisingly, the tortilla de papas, which came topped with a refreshing salad and was much lighter than expected. Service was fast too. Overall, worth a visit!

Na num puts the um in yum. As tres amigos, we shared a few small plates and preferred them in this order: the mussel ceviche was really special, with a perfectly balanced sauce. Next up was the ribs, not the world's best, but very good with a unami sauce. The cauliflower was good but needed a touch of spice, and the ban chan was just ok! Our server was prompt and knowledgeable, and the space was chill with a very tempting, sit solo at the bar, to return to.
