Overall, Itaewon MTL is widely praised for authentic Korean flavors, generous portions, and friendly, attentive service, with highlights including bulgogi, tteokbokki, japchae, bibimbap, and fried chicken, all described as fresh, well balanced and satisfying. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the decor is cute, and the staff are typically helpful, making it a popular choice for both solo diners and groups at reasonable prices. A few notes mention dishes arriving a bit salty or not as hot as expected, and one takeout experience suffered from delays that left items cold, but dine in visits generally shine with speed and quality. Overall it is regarded as a solid option for Korean cuisine in Montreal, with many guests saying they would return to try more dishes and recommend Itaewon MTL to others.
Très bon restaurant. Parfait avant d'aller voir un spectacle en face au National.
Accueille sympathique, endroit charmant & surtout, nourriture très bonne. J'ai testé le barbecue Coréen & c'etait généreux & savoureux. Si je retourne dans ce coin de la ville, je retournerai probablement à ce restaurant. Belle découverte entre amies.
The place is super cute, the waiter was incredibly attentive, & then the food was absolutely amazing. I was craving BBQ chicken & will be back for drinks & food again.
Très bon restaurant, endroit chaleureux & agréable. Le personnel est très sympathique, accueillant & à l'écoute. J'ai pris le riz au Kimchi c'était 10/10.
Merci à Hyeonseok pour son accueil chaleureux. Je recommande !
J'ai adoré mon expérience; excellente nourriture, super ambiance, bon service! On avait avec nous un bébé de 19 mois & tout s'est avéré excellent! (On a aussi aidé en venant tôt pour souper; étant conscients qu'un bébé dans un resto; ça peut déranger).
Went with a couple of friends for dinner during the Easter weekend. My friends brought their one-year-old daughter. Out food & drinks were wonderful. All of us really enjoyed our meal.
The waiters were so nice & understanding. They even made sure that my friends' daughter had fun & was okay. I highly recommend this restaurant.

tout était excellent, le serveur est vraiment gentil puis on a commandé le bbq de boeuf (pour deux personnes) puis le poulet yangnyum.
à part de maintenant un de mes restaurants favorites !
Really solid Korean spot. The bibimbap was fresh & flavorful, with perfectly cooked veggies, crispy bits of meat, & a runny egg that tied everything together. The miso soup & kimchi on the side were a great touch & tasted authentic. Portions were satisfying & the presentation was on point. Definitely a place I'd come back to if you're craving a comforting, well-balanced meal.
I ate with my friend & admired the food. It was totally different from the Korean food I had elsewhere. Each ingredient had excellent taste & texture, & the staff was also very friendly, making it a pleasant meal.
Each side dish is also very good.
Petit resto sympathique ! Le service est rapide, agréable & la nourriture est excellente. Je le recommande vivement & j'y retournerai assurément ! Bien que les tables soient collé, nous n'avons pas l'impression de manger avec les autres

Do not order from Uber eats!!! This was such a small portion for 38$!!!! I usually order from Dawa which I find price to quality & quantity quite reasonable but not for this restaurant unfortunately. Not their fault but the Uber driver also took 2 hours to get to me so everything was cold & mushy
Souper de semaine avant un spectacle à l'Olympia : l'endroit était très facile d'accès & proposait plusieurs plats typiques coréens. Mon poulet était très bon, mais aussi très salé. D'autres options au menu m'auraient peut-être évité cette impression. Mon accompagnatrice a pris des nouilles sautées & c'était très bon également.
Ce que j'ai le plus aimé, c'est l'accompagnement : une petite boisson style bubble tea au raisin vert, vraiment délicieuse. L'ambiance de la salle était aussi très kawaii, avec des figurines d'animé un peu partout. & on a été servis en un temps record!
very solid restaurant for korean foods. the menu has a great selection & the prices are decent. i enjoyed my beef japchae, & the teokbokki tasted great as well.
nothing much worth noting, it is a a proper place for average korean cuisine, there are many like it & it doesn't necessarily stand out.
