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.

Truly a remarkable restaurant, close to Lionel-Groulx Metro station! Inventive modern Korean Faire (with Italian influences) with a focus on shared plates. The burata, crispy dumplings, oyster mushroom tempura, & kimchi were all delicious. Well worth return trips.

My entire experience from start to finish with 9tail fox was incredible. The service was impeccable, everyone is so friendly & incredibly fun to talk to. The food was outstanding - the kimchi caesar (top 3 i've ever had), the dumplings & fried oytser mushrooms had the most incredible flavours. As a vegetarian, they have a ton of options! I will definitely be going back, as soon as possible !

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 💗

This restaurant was amazing!!! Every single dish we tried was delicious, though the group's favourites were the dumplings, shrimp boa buns, gnocchi, oysters & steak frites. The service was outstanding - we would definitely go back!

Came across this restaurant coincidentally & I'm pleasantly amazed! The food was delicious, the decor & music amplified the experience.

We took the mushroom dumplings & the fried eggplant. De-Lish ⭐?

Crudo was surprisingly light & fresh.
Lamb skewer was flavourful & rich.
The fried chicken was tender & bursting with flavours.

We ended the night with the matcha cake. Perfectly light & airy.
