Very delicious! Seafood pancake is undoubtedly the best in mtl, very generous with the seafood. Kalbi was also great. Service was nice despite being super busy. Their tea is really good.View more

BEST KOREAN SEAFOOD PANCAKE IN MTL!! This thing is insanely thick, a big as a personal pizza, comes in on a sizzling hot plate, crispy on the outside & so soft on the inside. They are also very very generous with the seafood. The stews to share are also fun, as it comes on its own little stove & you watch it bubble on the table as it heats up. This has been my go-to Korean spot for years, but I would definitely recommend calling in half an hour in advance to make sure they are open before making the trip out. They are notorious for being randomly closed without warning, & you may be left with the disappointment of finding a closed shop when the pancake craving has already set in :(View more

Back again for seafood pancake always the best！dont miss this place if you love Korean cuisine worth to tryView more
It’s a humble spot with exceptional food. I’m a vegetarian but was with non-veg & we ate to our hearts desires. They were accommodating & made the seafood pancake without seafood & it was so delicious.
They start you with tea as you sit with continuous refills. It’s a small space maybe 12 tables or so & one wait staff arrive early order first otherwise it gets busy but you sympathize because everyone came practically at opening. We were three table & witchin 10 minutes they were packed all proper signs of being in the right place!View more
One of the best Korean pancakes in town. Really recommend. The price is a bit higher than average Korean restaurant. The large soup/ stew is good for two people with just the right amount of food. The side dishes are tasty, especially the cucumber 🥒.View more
Nice to have samgyetang in Montreal. Ginseng chicken soup is a signature dish of Korean. Not every restaurant has such ingredients. Here is a good placeView more
I like this restaurant but hadn't been here n a few years so I was happy to see it still survived in an arae of Montreal that has seen happier days. This is not a place you sit & linger, you order eat & rush out...so my ratings are based on that style of restaurant.
The prices are more than reasonable for the quality & quantity of food served.
The room is literally unchanged & the menu from what I recall was a similar.
I am a fan of asian food buthave had resrvations about Korean food without really knowing why.
But one thing for sure is you want a seafood omlette/crepe this is the place. Nowhere else in Montreal is t as tasty or crunchy.
I also ordered the mandu which were acceptable & the korean version of a sushi roll that was also acceptable.
Service was good but rushed
C'est une endroit formidable pour de la nourriture coréenne. S'en est un référence sur l'ile métropolitaine. Leur Galbi est excellent, le dolso bibimbap aussi. Le point négatif, c'est l'achalandage successive à tout moment, il y a toujours une file & le temps d'attente varie toujours entre 15 & 45 minutes. Parfois on se fait dépasser par des groupes qui ont l'air d'être privilégié par les employés. Cela est extrêmement frustrant, mais on ne peut rien y faire.
If i crave Korean food while in Montreal, Hwang-Kum is my one & only place, with no other contending equal. Homey ambiance, authentic cuisine, down-to-earth service, what a find! The only downside is that it has unpredictable vacation schedules!!! It has happened to me numerous times to show up only to find a hand written sign on the door advising that the restaurant is closed... I can certainly sympathize as it is a family-owned restaurant after all, & vacations are well deserved! But selfishly, i wish it was always open, & could take reservations!
I love this place, it is tiny & fills up fast, so be there when it opens (but check their hours cause they're not open every day). I have very little experience with Korean food so I can't tell you if it's authentic but it is definitely delicious! I think it is best if you go with several people & share because everything is great & it's fun to try the different dishes. Get the seafood pancake, it's AMAZING but you need at least 3 people to help you eat it because it is so large & fried. The wait staff is very friendly (but busy) however we never had to wait long for anything. They serve this really great corn & barley tea & the waitress was super nice when we asked what it was & what kind of hot sauce they used (so we could buy both of them at the korean grocery store down the street). If you're up for a culinary adventure, I definitely recommend Hwang-Kum!
Took my dad here for lunch since he never had Korean before. He left feeling very satisified. Said that the food was like a home cooked meal & he would definitly eat there again. He is a hard guy to please. He ordered the lunch special spicy chicken & I had my usual bi-bim-bap. We love the kim-chee they serve at the beginning. Have been there so many times already, there is nothing to complain about.
Good stuff, I haven't been to a lot of Korean restos in the city but this one was up there. Fresh ingredients, great taste. Beef Bulgogi was perfectly done, the other chicken dish we tried (I forget the name) was a bit too sweet.
