Review Summary

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.

The food was amazing! We ordered Korean fried chicken spicy soft tofu soup , & both were full of flavor. The chicken was crispy on the outside & juicy inside. The staff were friendly & the service was fast. I will definitely come back again!'

I visited a Korean restaurant today called Itaewon. I ordered chicken coated in sweet & spicy Korean sauce with pork mandu. The chicken was tender, & the sauce tasted authentic, like being in Korea. The place is easy to reach by metro. I'd rate my experience 8 out of 10.

We ordered the seafood pajeon, seafood soondubu, & yangnyum chicken. The food was good overall. The soup was flavorful, & the chicken had a nice sweet & spicy umami flavor that my husband really liked, though the sauce was a bit on the heavy, sweeter side, so it's something you can only enjoy a few pieces of.

Service was polite, but we felt a little rushed. They served the food & checked in once, but it felt like they wanted to turn the table quickly. We hadn't even been there for an hour.

I'd recommend going when it's not too busy so you can take your time & really enjoy the meal. I'd come back to try other dishes, maybe with a bigger group next time so we can share & sample more items.

Very pricy for its portion. Ordered Spicy Tofu soup, seafood version, it's $21.99, in a small bowl

We came to Itaewon Korean restaurant in Montreal based on Google reviews, & it did not disappoint. The space isn't overly big, but the layout feels cozy & welcoming. When we arrived, it was about half full-just the right level of busy. My girlfriend & I ordered the bibimbap & spicy soft tofu soup, & we also shared the tteokkgangjeong (which I will not attempt to pronounce). Everything was absolutely delicious.

The bibimbap was perfectly balanced with crisp vegetables & a rich flavour. The soft tofu soup was warm, spicy, & comforting. The tteokkgangjeong-fried rice cakes coated in a spicy & sweet sauce-were a real highlight, chewy & packed with flavour. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, & made the whole experience feel relaxed & pleasant. Service was efficient without ever feeling rushed. We left full & already looking forward to our next visit. Itaewon really nails it for authentic, satisfying Korean cuisine in Montreal.

Their food was way too salty... i had their spicy soft tofu soup with pork & boy the white rice didnt even help...

The food was so salty that we had to ask for 3-4 pitcher of water to wash the saltiness...

There was only 2 waiter working a friday night... which sounds just crazy.... so the service was slow & horrible...

We waited for ages just to get our bill...

But the decoration & the drinks were decent
