Hwang Kum est décrit comme un endroit cosy et fantastique, apprécié pour son atmosphère intime et son caractère familial, souvent fréquenté en famille et entre amis. Les plats phares tels que le jokbal, les pajeon variés et les nouilles sont régulièrement salués pour leur fraîcheur et leurs saveurs distinctes, avec des accompagnements savoureux. Le pajeon de fruits de mer est fréquemment considéré comme le meilleur de la ville, souvent accompagné d une sauce qui le sublime, tandis que des plats comme le bulgogi et le samgyetang ou le tteokbokki reçoivent aussi d excellentes critiques. La soupe aux os de porc, lorsqu elle est commandée en grande portion, est décrite comme généreuse et copieuse. Une impression plus mitigée concerne des pommes de terre d une texture inhabituelle dans un plat, et quelques avis soulignent ce restaurant comme un peu cher, mais le niveau de qualité justifie le coût pour beaucoup. Les clients signalent aussi une petite salle, parfois occupée et suivie d une file d attente, ainsi que des heures d ouverture qui changent parfois; le service est généralement perçu comme amical et rapide. Dans l ensemble, Hwang Kum est cité comme l une des meilleures cuisines coréennes de Montréal et les retours recommandent fortement d essayer.
My father first took me to this cosy, fantastic spot about 10 years ago, & I've often returned with my daughter, friends, over the years. Really like the jokbal (something you don't make at home), all the pajeon options, & the various noodle dishes are always yummy. Plus tasty sides. All food is prepped fresh, with distinct flavours & textures. Street parking not too difficult. Anticipate a line up. Recommend highly.
Love this small family owned business. Best seafood pajeon in town, the place is very small & sometimes would have a line up but it's really worth it to wait in line. My kids love eating here.
The only thing is, if you decide to eat here make sure to check their google site first if they are open. Their operating days sometimes changes.

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.
One of the best Korean places I have been to, loved everything we ordered, it's a bit on expensive side, expect a bill of 70-80 for 2 for a decent meal.
Authentique restaurant coréen, j'adore leurs banchan, seafood pancake & leur Galbi LA. Un peu cher & souvent très occupé, mais en général, toujours mon coup de coeur. Service amical & rapide.

An all-time favourite & long-time establishment. I haven't eaten here in some time but the reviews by people who have leave me confident they're as good as ever. If they're not keeping regular hours any more after all these years then all I have to say is: Thank you for your continued service to the community. I have many warm memories in your restaurant.
There's something cool about a place so exclusive it only opens periodically & doesn't take reservations. Show up just before it opens & hopefully you get a seat. Delicious Korean food, including an amazing seafood pancake. I love the little art pieces in the restaurant too.

This restaurant is so underrated! Everything I've had here has been delicious. If you haven't been, I highly recommend getting the Haemul (Seafood) Pajeon & the Galbi beef ribs (I like it better than the L. A. Galbi). Their Mandu are good. Simple, warm & comforting. The Dak bulgogi (spicy marinated chicken) is good, if you prefer a saucier/curry like dish. The Sundubu jigae is solid & I would order it again (but I'm also trying to get a different soup every time because they are all so good). I've also tried their spicy bred & vegetable soup, the pork rib soup is great, & I really loved their spicy cod soup. I've also had the bibimbap & it's very good. The cold bibimbab (salmon bowl) & it's fresh & delicious! I wish they were open for lunch because I would order this again! I would skip the Jokbal. It's good, but I prefer the one from the Montreal Korean & Japanese Foods (grocery store on Sherbrooke st. West). Overall, I love this place! The portions are good, the food is tasty, & satisfying. It's one of the only restaurants that, even if I eat a lot, I don't feel bloated there day after eating here (another sign that they are using excellent ingredients). Call before going, however, because they are a small business, their hours vary (& sometimes they are closed 🥲).
