About

Hanyang Jokbal specializes in authentic Korean cuisine, with a particular focus on succulent, slow-braised pig's trotters, a signature dish known as 'Jokbal'. This time-honored preparation involves marinating the trotters in a rich blend of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and aromatic spices, resulting in a tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture and a deeply savory flavor profile. The restaurant offers a variety of cuts and preparations, often served with a medley of fresh banchan (side dishes) like kimchi, pickled vegetables, and savory pancakes. Patrons can complement their meals with traditional Korean beverages, enhancing the vibrant and communal dining experience. It is an ideal destination for those seeking a true taste of Korean culinary tradition, expertly prepared and presented with care.

Hanyang Jokbal is widely regarded as a standout destination in Montreal for authentic Korean cuisine, with most visitors praising the tender, flavorful braised pork hock as the highlight of the menu. While the overall consensus highlights the welcoming atmosphere, generous portions, and fresh side dishes, experiences regarding service consistency vary significantly.

Although a few reviewers feel certain secondary dishes are less impressive compared to other local establishments, many guests consider the restaurant a go-to spot for high-quality, comforting meals and express a strong intention to return.

We waited for an hour after ordering. At 30 minutes, we asked the waitress for answers only to get a brief notice that the food was on thr way (which was not). Later on, we asked another waitress to discover the fact that our order wasn't even placed. Even thought they said they had a system problem, we high doubt the excuse since the group of person that came in were eating pleasantly while we were unnoticed & simply drinking water.

We came as a group of 5 & were told we couldn't be seated until the 6th person arrived. There were clearly empty 6-person tables available.

A younger waitress initially let us in, but was stopped by an older female staff member with glasses. She refused to seat us until all 6 people were there. Her treatment of us felt very different from how she treated other customers. We suspect racial discrimination. Very disappointed. Will never come back.

I tried it again, & I'm convinced there's a lot of MSG in the broth.

I waited for ten minutes after entering the restaurant without being served by a single server. The restaurant was not busy at all, with only two tables occupied. No one offered me cutlery, water, or even a menu. After waiting a long time, I had to go to the counter to ask if I needed to order, but the server told me no. When I finally received my water after waiting for ages, I found something dirty in it. When I told the server & returned the cup, he simply walked away. This restaurant has serious racial discrimination. I saw white customers behind me, & they greeted them with smiles, without making anyone wait. When I went to pay the bill, I even noticed that the waiter hadn't given me the kimchi that other tables had. I don't understand why guests should be treated this way.
