Do Hwa is always crowded with Village trendsetters. It’s one of those perpetually hot restaurants, mostly due to the menu, which features spicy, authentic Korean food at reasonable prices. Sure, there are more elegant, refined places to dine in the city, but Do Hwa is not trying to be anything other than what it is—a warm and lively restaurant that focuses on food and does it very well.
