Nothing fancy or new. Just another Korean restaurant. It's small & boring. A brown stone turned into a restaurant. Food was ok could be better. Bibimbap was bit plain, oh & who puts shredded lettuce in bibimbap?!?! Stews were bit boring, bit sweet & blend. Chintzy on the side dishes, just three items & extra cost for refills. Overall it's a bit boring for my taste.

I always come here when I am craving authentic Korean food in Montreal! Especially the bibimbap, jjajangmyeon, jjampong, & their new soy garlic chicken! As a student in Concordia, I enjoy how convenient the walk to the restaurant is & would definitely recommend to everyone :)

This one of the most authentic Korean restaurants you can find in Montreal! Ive tried all their specialties & everything is so tasty! This is a family own business who cooks food with love & gives a warm service. I recommended it to everyone! 😊

Amazing food! I don't know much about Korean food, but I know it's delicious! Try the spicy chicken & something that looks like a pancake!

I tried their half-&-half noodle (no.3) to sample both types, but it unfortunately didn't meet expectations. It seemed they aimed for a healthier version compared to Korean Chinese restaurants in Korea. The black bean noodle was less sugary, & the spicy seafood noodle had fewer chili oils. Whether it was an average day or not, the noodle portion was surprisingly small for its cost; the black bean noodle barely had onions, & only one tiny pork piece was included. It's unfortunate that Montreal lacks a standout Korean Chinese restaurant.

Interesting place to try some traditional style Korean food! The weak point of this restaurant was actually some of the food. It was very disappointing & unappetizing. However, some meat dishes looked great! Dietary restrictions were not their strength. The freshness didn't stand out to me either in the side dishes or the main dish I tried, Japchae Bab. I did appreciate them making the dish with tofu as there were only 2 options for vegetarians to eat, off the menu. Although some dishes were made as soon as the order went in, there were a few that sat & cooked all day long. Some of the food that could be easily altered to suit guests, couldn't be remade due to using the same big stew they cook all-day long; Particularly, the kimchi stew which can be made fresh in 5-10 mins & is not normally a stew that sits'all-day long'. It was unclear, why did they not decide to cook all the food fresh? Not only would fresh dishes ensure the quality & taste, it would elevate their restaurant. Fresh food would make dealing with any dietary restrictions easier. Having flexibility with their guests is important for any food establishment, & it was unfortunate I didn't see that this time. The atmosphere reminded me of a seniors home - The decor seemed outdated with no particular theme connecting to the restaurant. I could see some elements of Korean culture but it was in the background rather than the foreground representing what type of restaurant it was. The highlight, was definitely the staff as they were absolutely exceptional! They easily explained the menu & helped with any concerns I had with the food. Overall, it was so-so. I think fresh food would bring more traffic to the place along with revamping the decor.

Good Korean food. Nice side dishes. I hope the menu could have more variety. Otherwise five stars!
