Les avis décrivent Chimaek Gana comme une adresse incontournable pour le poulet frit coréen à Montréal, avec du poulet croustillant et savoureux dans divers styles tels que Yangnyeom et Supreme, et des portions généreuses qui se marient bien avec les accompagnements, le radis mariné et une bière bien fraîche. Le service est souvent loué pour sa gentillesse, sa rapidité et son attention, et l'ambiance est notée comme dynamique et accueillante, avec des touches pratiques comme des gants pour manger et des espaces propres et confortables. Bien que certains lecteurs mentionnent des mises à jour du menu et des fluctuations de prix, le consensus est que la nourriture est délicieuse et satisfaisante, ce qui en fait un choix populaire pour les groupes et les occasions spéciales.
A great find in Montreal's downtown area. The portions are enormous for the price. The Ttoekbokki was delicious & spicy. The fried chicken was amazing, both dishes were well seasoned, the skin was crispy while the meat was still quite juicy. The ambiance was vibrant & well decorated with names on the wall.
Love this place! The fried chicken is so good. I highly recommend for you to try the cajun cream. Wouldn't order a lot if it's a first time the portions are so big!
I was impressed by the generous portion size. The crispy coating was perfect, & the overall vibe of the place added to a delightful dining experience. Definitely recommend

I've been to this restaurant quite a few times & adoreee the service provided as well as the food -- the chicken is absolutely delicious & would recommend coming here with friends, family or even birthday parties. The staff are always friendly & their service is amazing! This is one of the Gana locations, about a 30 seconds to 1 minutes walk from guy-concordia metro, st-mathieu exit!
The chicken was very filling for an amazing price. The shop was a bit hard to notice, which guarantees more privacy. The staff was very nice & providing.
Tebokki for take out, it takes us 5 minutes in microwave to heat it up. Everything is cold even we put the soup inside, the noodle & fish cake is not ready to eat right away. No clear instructions given when we got food on hand. Restaurant should instruct customers otherwise it's unbelievable to receive food like this. P/s: waiting time 25-30 minutes, i came inside & ask for orders , staff should pay attention to customers more.
Rarely do I give out 5 stars but this place is amazing. The food was delicious, incredibly generous portions & the place is very cozy! Definitely coming back soon!
Chimaek Gana in downtown Montreal delivers a friendly atmosphere & generous portions of Korean fried chicken. We were late to our reservation, but the staff accommodated us & held our table, setting a friendly tone for the evening. Our server expertly guided us through popular dishes, including the flavorful Truffle Boneless Fried Chicken & the Korean army stew. Diving into our chosen dishes, the Korean Army Stew emerged as a standout, its rich flavors elevated further when opting for ramen over rice. The addition of a portable gas stove maintained the stew's warmth throughout the meal, adding a pleasant dining experience. The Truffle Boneless Fried Chicken, though had great flavours, faced a slight setback with a thick batter, resulting in a drier texture. But dipping the chicken into the flavorsome stew, helped with the texture. Note to fellow diners: selecting the drumstick option might not be as dry. The ambiance, casual yet vibrant, welcomed a mix of locals & university students, creating a lively backdrop to our dining experience. The pricing structure was fair, offering value for money with portions that left us pleasantly satiated. In terms of service, it seemed like they were understaffed, which led to some delays in water refill etc. but a small drawback on an overall warm ambiance & the staff's accommodating nature. For those navigating transportation, finding parking can be challenging, so the metro is recommended. In conclusion, Chimaek Gana provides an enticing combination of friendly service, fair pricing, & flavorful dishes, making it a a good spot for Korean fried chicken enthusiasts in Montreal.
I would give it a 4.5 stars. Huge quantities for the price. Ideally, you would want to reserve in advance as there is a lineup if you're a walk-in. We were two & it was our first time so we wanted to try as much as we can, but i recommend taking only an appetizer & an order of chicken. We had the Korean Army Soup, the Padak & the Yangnyeom Chicken. As you can see, the portions are huge. Our favourite was the Padak, the sauce was not too overwhelming & the green onions complimented the chicken really well. The Yangnyoem was a little too sweet for our liking, it tasted like a dessert but some might like it. The soup was great & it had a lot of meat & vegetables. The restaurant at night has a nice & chill vibe with K-Pop playing in the back & some nice blue & purple lights. It's a place that you should come if you're at least 4, so you can enjoy as many dishes as possible. The service is also pretty nice, no complaints there.
The portion sizes are great for the price although they didn't put enough powder on the chicken even though it's called "baby powder" which left half of the chicken plain. For the sauce of the Yangnyeom chicken it tasted like cinnamon which was disappointing. The gamjatang had way to much cabbage at this point just make an entire mountain of it. The meat wasn't tender enough so I don't recommend getting it. The atmosphere was great & loved how spacious it was. If you come here I recommend to get the baby powder fried chicken. It would be great if they made a plate with all of the different flavours so I know which one I would like to get next time.
Came with a friend for dinner on a Tuesday & the place was packed. They put us on a virtual waiting list that texted a few minutes before our turn. The wait was approximately 45 minutes which was absolutely bonkers for a Tuesday night. The service was cold but at least it was attentive. The waiting staff had no interest in smiling or exchanging pleasantries. We ordered the onion rings, sweet potato fries & one of the sauced fried chickens. The Onion rings were below average, akin to what you might get at a fast food restaurant. The sweet potato fries were good, but again nothing to rave about. The chicken was fried really well, but the sauce was waaay too sweet. I actually didn't like it. Maybe I would like it more with a different sauce, but I was off put by the one we had. Overall the experience was just ok. I'd be inclined to try it again but I'm not really up to waiting that long. There are great Korean fried chicken places around without needed to be subject to just a long line up.
