Review Summary

Itaewon MTL is praised for authentic Korean cuisine with generous portions and reasonable prices, delivering favorites like tteokbokki, bulgogi, bibimbap, japchae, and seafood pancakes, plus a standout fried chicken. The ambience is described as warm, welcoming, and cozy, with a stylish yet comfortable decor that suits families, couples, and groups, though the restaurant can get crowded at peak times. Service is repeatedly highlighted as friendly, attentive, and efficient, with staff accommodating dietary needs and making guests feel at home. Most reviews note fresh ingredients and vibrant flavors, with some dishes offering a milder spice level than expected or occasional saltiness, and a few mentions of wait times or being chilly inside. Takeout and dine-in experiences are both represented, and many diners express strong plans to return to try more items. Overall the consensus is that Itaewon MTL offers solid value, dependable Korean comfort food, and a welcoming atmosphere that draws repeat visits.

The grilled jeyuk bbq was amazing! So was the tteokbokki. I would definitely come back again & try other things on the menu. Staff & service were great as well!

We went for a family dinner & this is easily our favorite Korean restaurant in Montreal after trying many others (check my other reviews). Itaewon has a warm, friendly, & welcoming atmosphere, & the place had a nice crowd. On top of that, we were lucky enough to find parking right in front on a cold January night.

The service was excellent from the moment we walked in. The non-alcoholic drinks added a fun summer vibe to the meal. Food-wise, everything was excellent. The tteokbokki with the sweet rose sauce is a must, the fried chicken was excellent, & the seafood pancake was one of my favorites. The tofu soup was a hit at the table, & while the japchae was sweeter than usual, it was a pleasant change. Portions are generous.

We will definitely be coming back & highly recommend!

Ordered the premium tteokbokki & soy garlic fried chicken & loved both! I have a pretty low spice tolerance, & this is the first tteokbokki that had the perfect spice for me, it was really mild. Fried chicken was crispy & juicy, though the sauce was quite sweet & might not be for everyone. The pickles really helped balance it all together. Service was also quick & really welcoming! I'll definitely come back :)
