Key Information

Yubu Tart refers to the signature dish and concept offered by DDOBAR NYC, a restaurant known for its innovative take on tarts. DDOBAR replaces traditional tart crusts with Korean fried-tofu pockets, creating a unique culinary experience. The restaurant offers both individual Yubutarts and a decadent fine dining tasting menu. The name 'DDOBAR' means 'see you again' in Korean, reflecting their hope for returning customers. It is associated with the Michelin-recognized Joomak Banjum.

Customer Perception

Customers consistently praise the Yubutarts as 'flavor bombs' with perfectly seasoned, soft yet lightly chewy tofu pockets. Many describe them as a 'must-try' for their bursting flavors and unique blend of traditional and modern elements. Popular fillings include pork jaeyook, beef bulgogi, seared salmon, tuna mayo, and avocado. While some found the rice texture good, a few noted it could be mushy. The presentation is generally appreciated, and the matcha lattes are well-received. Service is described as efficient and professional, though not overly engaging. The venue is seen as ideal for a quick snack or a more elaborate tasting menu.

Came here for lunch and had an amazing experience. I had never tried yubu tofu sushi rolls before and they were SO GOOD. I got the Tuna, Crab and Spicy Pork. My only regret was not getting the Spicy Tuna one. They were a good price too, I got three for $10 which was satisfying.

Got the set of 8 for $25 + tax (so about $3.40 each)! We enjoyed all of them (crabmeat, avocado, mushroom, spicy mushroom, beef bulgogi, spicy chicken). I think the spicy chicken was my favorite, it wasn’t too spicy but very flavorful. Not necessary the cheapest ever but 3 of them filled me, the portion was enough for a light lunch. The mango matcha latte ($7 for a large) was amazing, a little hard to mix at first but good size and yummy. Service was fast and friendly, there was plenty of indoor seating but note there is NO bathroom! They gave us 3 complimentary lollipops too which was a nice touch :) Would recommend / return here.

Really delicious tofu pockets with 3 vegan options! Price is reasonable, you can do 3 for $10. Of course I had to try all 3 vegan options! My favorite was probably the avocado one. Staff was nice, only downside is that there is no restroom for guests

Arrived at 11am, took my time, and was out by 1120am. It was so nice that their thermostat was at a more comfortable temperature than the typical NYC eateries thermostats being on the Hades setting all winter long. I enjoyed 4 and really should have eaten 3 since the yubu are pretty filling. FOMO won this time, but if I could go backsies in time, I would order the tuna mayo, imitation crab, pork jaeyook, and omitted the bulgogi. The pork jaeyook is tastier than the bulgogi, IMHO. I prefer the maillard reaction on typical bulgogi so this just wasn't my jam. Random note, the chopsticks are so pretty! The person in the kitchen did a great job with presentation. The rice had good texture and I felt each grain. I read others found the rice mushy, but that was not my experience. The matcha latte with oat milk had just the right sweetness and not over iced. The gentleman at the register was very well groomed, simply took my order, didn't try to upsell, and overall wasn't engaging. This isn't a knock on him, if that's the style of experience that is preferred and intended. A kiosk would serve a similar purpose and may be more cost effective in the long run if this is the case. Unless the cashier is the owner, then disregard that suggestion. A steady stream of Dashers were in and out. One couple occupied a table when I arrived, and 2 other tables were occupied by the time I headed out. Outlets are available if you want to charge, but they do not allow laptops, which I appreciate.
