Review Summary

Hwang Kum is described as a cozy, small, family-owned Korean spot that locals often return to with friends and family. Strong praise centers on jokbal, pajeon especially the seafood pajeon, and a variety of noodles, along with bulgogi, samgyetang, tteokbokki and a generous pork bone soup, all said to be prepared fresh with distinct flavors and textures and to be complemented by tasty banchan and sauces. The dining experience is described as small and sometimes busy, with lines common and street parking usually available, and hours can vary so checking Google for open days is advised. While prices can be on the higher side, the quality, generous portions, and friendly, speedy service consistently earn high recommendations, with some reviewers calling it the best Korean food in Montreal.

The food was absolutely delicious! Best Korean seafood pancake I've ever had. It was so fluffy, flavourful & crispy. The sauce it came with made it so much better. We also ordered the large pork bone soup, it was a very generous portion. My only critique would be the potatoes had an interesting texture to them that had me wondering if they were previously frozen.

The pancake is delicious, but the special spicy chicken is too salty for us, though the portion size is generous. The cabbage in the cold noodles tastes bitter. Additionally, there is basically no service. We asked for more water several times, but it never came, so we ended up leaving & buying water elsewhere.

Very delicious! Seafood pancake is undoubtedly the best in mtl, very generous with the seafood. Kalbi was also great. Service was nice despite being super busy. Their tea is really good.

BEST KOREAN SEAFOOD PANCAKE IN MTL!! This thing is insanely thick, a big as a personal pizza, comes in on a sizzling hot plate, crispy on the outside & so soft on the inside. They are also very very generous with the seafood. The stews to share are also fun, as it comes on its own little stove & you watch it bubble on the table as it heats up. This has been my go-to Korean spot for years, but I would definitely recommend calling in half an hour in advance to make sure they are open before making the trip out. They are notorious for being randomly closed without warning, & you may be left with the disappointment of finding a closed shop when the pancake craving has already set in :(
