The jajangmyeon was very good & should be tried; they make the noodles in house. The kkanpunggi was less good. The portion sizes were pretty large, even for the small size options. The restaurant interior was showing its age & the cup for water provided had some sediment in it.

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.

I had the bulgogi bibimbap & my husband ordered the pork version. They were both to our liking. The portions are just enough for one person without being overwhelming.

The place was quiet at 4:30 pm when we went there. We were the only diners because we decided to grab an early dinner. Our food was served promptly & the servers were all nice & friendly.

Highly recommended!

Owner changed.
It used to be Korean owned, & food was cooked by Korean chef so the taste was authentic. But not anymore.
Taste is completely different.
