hands down the best Korean fried chicken, jjajangmeyoun & seafood tteobokki! Noodles are made in house & perfectly chewy. Please give them a try, you won't be disappointed!
I used to go to Chez Bong on St-Laurent 20 years ago & really enjoyed the food. So I decided to try the restaurant on Mackay. We came here on Thursday evening. We didn't have a reservation but we didn't have to wait long.
The food was good but the service was so long even though the restaurant was half full.
We had the shrimp twigim. They were crispy & hot. We had jjajangmyeon (tasty & not too salty) rosé jjampong (creamy & not too spicy) & bulgogi. We also had fried chicken. It was nice & crispy.

This is hands down the best Korean fried chicken in Montreal. I always go for the half-half - their original flavor is super crispy, & the sweet & spicy sauce tastes just like authentic Korean chicken. The bibimbap is also amazing - I highly recommend dining in for the best texture & flavor.
It's a small hidden gem that really deserves more attention. My go-to place whenever I crave Korean fried chicken!
Absolutely my favourite Korean-Chinese restaurant! 🥰 Their fried chicken is crispy perfection, the rose jjampong is rich & flavourful, the tangsuyuk is perfectly balanced between sweet & tangy, & the jjajangmyeon is pure comfort in a bowl. They always serve tasty side dishes that make the meal even better. I've been coming here for years, & every visit has been consistently delicious. Finally leaving a review because they truly deserve it - highly recommend!
Hope they bring back their truffle jjajangmyeon because I enjoyed it a lot!
We craved for traditional korean dishes, so decided to try Chez Bong since we were walking down the block.
our waitress very friendly & gave us a great service, food came out real quick ( it was not busy on a saturday afternoon, also that day was beautiful outside so that explains why probably)
My friend & I ordered a stir-fried spicy pork dish & a stir-fried bulgogi & a side of korean fried dumplings, we enjoyed our food. it came with small side dishes
the only thing i would suggest is to maybe put some more ambiance because we couldn't talk normally, we had to whisper not for others to listen ( it was that quiet)
I would definitely go back to try their other dishes!
Cozy spot to enjoy authentic Korean cuisine. They offer delicious side dishes. Their fried-chicken is to DIE FOR! My go-to place every time! RECOMMENDED
When I first visit this restaurant, I had the spicy soup with noodles & spicy stir fried pork. Those were so goooood, so I thought about Chez Bong while I was in Quebec. So I visited here again when I came back to Montreal. I strongly recommend fried rice & spicy soup with noodle. Their service was very nice, too.

The atmosphere was great & staff was friendly.
We tried the seafood pancake, ji gae & fried chicken.
Seafood pancake was deceiving, it was not crispy, too much batter & not enough garnish like vegetables or seafood.
Ji gae was only ok. Fried chicken was not as expected, i feel like other places have a crispy batter but not at this restaurant.
They are very kind & gentle! I placed an uber eat order of two soft tofu soup & one Topoki, but they only gave me one soft tofu soup at the beginning. So I gave them a call saying I missed an order. They are able to provide me the missing soup but unfortunately they don’t have someone to deliver, so I went & pick it up. They surprised me with one more free toboki & a huge portion of fried dumplings. Very grateful for your food & service, they are very kind people!
