2 of my favorite Asian cuisines collide! Slow loris was recommended by a friend as a Korean spot in Brooklyn to us and we're so glad we finally went! A smaller intimate restaurant so service was quick and attentive. Some Korean staples we got to try included the seafood pancake (filled with seafood!!!), soy ginger Korean fried chicken, hot stone bibimbap and kimchi tofu soup which were amazing sharing portions packed with flavor. If I were to go back, I'd skip on the galbi. Will definitely come back and try their Japanese menu next time too!

I love Slow Loris so much! The soft wooded and industrial interior finishes combined with iconic stained glass windows depicting a cityscape that continues inside where high ceilings let the sounds of neighborhood get togethers and the radio merge into a warmth that envelops every patron. The service is always amazing and it's not uncommon to find restaurant workers from nearby grabbing lunch here. But the best thing is about it is by far the food! It is so fresh and flavorful even if you take it to go, and the servings always give me at least a second meal of leftovers if not more.

The staff was really friendly and the service was excellent. It'll be my go-to restaurant from now on and it's the closest kfood in my town
Slow Loris is such an excellent spot to have in the neighborhood. The Korean food is delicious - we especially love the seafood pancake, Sundubu jjigae, and the Bibimbop - and the sushi is so good. The fish is so good and you just can’t go wrong.

Waiter was oddly aggressive about tipping. If I weren’t in customer service, I probably wouldn’t have left one because of the way he clearly assumed my friend and I, both Black, wouldn’t be leaving one.

Best Korean/Japanese restaurant in town. Usually never leave reviews but our experience was too good to not leave a review.Came here after the Saint Patrick's day parade with a few friends and had such a good time. The service was great and they kept the drinks flowing. Awesome selection of soju, and they even had makgeolli, which I introduced my friends to - its their favorite drink now.Tasty appetizers, which went great with the drinks. The kimchi pancake was spicy and perfectly oily and went so well with the makgeolli. We also tried the hwedubap sashimi bowl which was incredible. I have not been able to have hwedubap as good as this one in a very long time. It's usually difficult to find something both tasty and healthful, but this is a perfect merge of both worlds. Overall, such good vibes and food. Just can't believe it took this long for me to try this place. 10 stars

i recently went to this restaurant after passing by it a few times, and i am so glad that i went in! the place was extremely clean, and i was greeted and served by very personable and kind waiters. they were very attentive throughout my entire stay. i ordered the lunch special, which consists of choosing any 2 or 3 rolls for a set price. i personally got the spicy tuna and spicy salmon rolls, which were so delicious!! they really hit the spot on a day where you just want good, fresh sushi rolls.i also tried the tuna kimbap and bulgogi kimbap which i ordered through grubhub on a separate occasion, which was so delicious. it was filling and delicious yet healthy at the same time. my friends also ordered other items, and everyone thought the food was so good. we waited a little longer than expected but it was 100% worth it. i can't wait to keep trying new food items from my new favorite restaurant!! :)

Some of the worst sashimi I’ve ever had. Octopus was completely frozen. Many of the other cuts were fishy and gross. Insane to charge $32 for this.Update: also it gave me food poisoning.

I recently celebrated my birthday at Slowloris Restaurant, and it was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, the staff made me feel special and took care of every detail.We loved everything we had… The Salmon Deluxe Combo is a must-try! The salmon was cooked to perfection, and the combination of salmon sushi, sashimi and a roll with delicious sauce, made every bite a delight. I also recommend trying the Makgeolli, a refreshing Korean rice wine that perfectly complemented the flavors of the meal.The service at Slowloris was outstanding. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure that everything went smoothly throughout the evening. They truly went above and beyond to make my birthday party a memorable one.I highly recommend Slowloris Restaurant for any special occasion or simply for a fantastic dining experience. The food, the service, and the overall atmosphere exceeded my expectations. Thank you, Slowloris, for making my birthday celebration so special!
I was seeking out to have a delicious meal with my girlfriend before we go out for TGIF. She was craving for Korean Food. I don’t know too much about Asian Culture and food so I was confused what to order for her. Luckily, one friendly server, recommended me to have the Ramen and Kimbap combo. It was exceptional. I had Tuna Mayo Kimbap and Spicy Ramen. My girlfriend ordered the soju cocktail (they called it Soju Bomb). It simply mixed with one tiny soju cup and a glass of beer. The taste similar to whiskey sour (old fashion) but not too strong to handle it. Once you started to try that, it will hard to stop. So, make sure to install the UBER and pin your location before you try that. It was a nice combo meal to have Kimbap and Soju.Rating : 4.5 Out of 5

We ordered takeout from Slowloris as a treat, because we were hungry and we didn't feel like cooking and we wanted something easy and tasty. This plan completely backfired on us. After an hour, our food still hadn't been delivered. We called and at first they couldn't find our order even though we ordered on their website. Then they said the kitchen was backed up, that they were cooking it now, and that it would arrive in 25 minutes. Another hour later, it still hadn't arrived. We called again. They couldn't locate our order at first, again. Then the delivery guy finally pulled up. We asked if we could have any sort of partial refund on our meal for the two hours we spent waiting for it hungry. They were not responsive. We live less than a mile away from this place. ALSO, we got two entrees and an appetizer and with tip and delivery fee it cost $80. We wish we had gotten Flatbush Thai or made instant ramen instead.
