About

9 Tail Fox delivers a focused exploration of Korean culinary traditions through a menu defined by interactive tabletop BBQ and artisanal dumplings. Patrons engage with high-quality protein selections that are seared directly at the table to ensure precise texture and flavor development. The kitchen emphasizes bold seasoning profiles, utilizing fermented components and signature sauces to elevate the preparation of grilled meats. Beyond the grill, house-made dumplings feature thin, resilient skins encasing savory fillings that highlight traditional spice balances. The interior environment facilitates a communal dining approach where the heat of the cooking equipment remains the central focal point of the meal. This establishment prioritizes the authentic execution of classic recipes while maintaining a functional atmosphere centered on the technical skill required for proper Korean charcoal or gas-assisted grilling techniques.

Bro, honestly, this place is solid.

I wasn't sure what to expect as this corner location has been sort of cursed with turnover over the years, but I can happily say that I hope nine tail fox sticks around.

The ambiance is really great. So great that when I sat down, I was worried that the portions wouldn't match- you know what I mean? That all the dishes would be tiny & nibbley. Not true! The value was definitely there.

Fresh ingredients. Creative dishes & presentation. The chef came over & said hi. The wait staff was very attentive & friendly. Great spot for a date or with the small group of friends & I recommend sharing all of your dishes.

Came here for NYE which was a set menu. HUGE portions for a multi course menu, amazing food. Special shoutout to these oysters!!! I will be coming back just for the oysters. The staff were amazing & super attentive. The drinks were also unbelievable. The sesame espresso martini was so good.

Absolutely delicious! We ordered 5 dishes & a dessert for 2 people & it was more than enough for us. All the food was so fresh, seasoned well, & cooked perfectly. Entire staff was friendly & attentive. It's hard to pick a standout dish because everything was so good, but the Seoul Caesar is a must order. One of the best meals I've had In Montréal.

Highly recommended! Bravo Chef Lee!
We had a wonderful dining experience at ???. Loved the lively atmosphere, attentive servers, & of course the food.
We tried 6 Korean forward dishes from the menu & had a pleasant surprise.
The food looked ordinary until you took the first bite. The delicious main ingredients were complimented by 8 different Devine sauces, I meant really different.
Chef Lee brought our taste buds on a journey, from simplistic to multilayer flavour. This restaurant is a hidden gem in plain sight!

Our group of 5 had the pleasure of dining here the other day to celebrate a birthday & a graduation.
Everything was perfect: the cozy cute atmosphere, Chanelle's friendly & attentive service, & the tasty dishes with some surprising & delicious spices & flavours! We tried the fresh fish with kimchi, the seafood paella, the duck, & the octopus. The oysters & dumpling appetizers were also out of this world, so was the cocktail! Highly recommend, we found our new neighbourhood gem 💗
