The chicken is praised as incredibly tasty with sauces that are succulent and well balanced, and the Inferno is noted as incredibly spicy, a challenge for heat seekers. The cheese powder chicken is a standout for many diners, while the original tteokbokki is considered average and not spicy enough, with the rice cake texture resembling thick noodles. Friendly and helpful staff are frequently mentioned, contributing to a positive experience and good value. The place is regarded as among the best Korean fried chicken options in Montreal, with flavors that are consistently sauced and seasoned across orders. Many reviews express eagerness to return to try more flavors and dishes.View restaurant profile
