Warm & friendly service by the lady at the front counter. Nice springy homemade noodles. Wish I could finish it if I didn't have to watch my carbs intake. Fresh ingredients. Place is clean. Korean songs are on but not loud enough, so one can still talk. Only thing the beef for the noodles was a bit tough/chewy, but maybe I didn't know how to appreciate it. There was plenty of proteins & greens in the serving.

The prices are reasonable for the portion sizes. The food is good, & the staff is friendly. However, the facility looks a little run-down.

Absurdly large portion. Food was pretty good. Arrived fast. Price is sligthly higher than the one advertised on the google maps menu. Only lacking is a nice ambiance but it looks like they mostly do takeout so i guess its fine.

A little hole in the wall restaurant easily missed from the street because it's on a second floor. It wasn't very busy on a Saturday evening (at points I was the only diner).

I had the beef jjam bbong noodle soup, which I requested extra spicy. The noodles were perfectly smooth & chewy, & the meat was plentiful. This is probably one of the best jjam bbongs I've ever had. My critiques are that I think a leaner cut of meat could be better as there were a few pieces that were super fatty, & I also think some kimchi or pickle on the side for dine in customers would be very appreciated to cut through the richness.

Overall this was very delicious & I would totally come back to try their seafood jjam bbong or jajangmyeon next time I'm in Montreal.

This place served some of the smallest portions I've ever seen. I added beef to my dish for extra money & there was three tiny pieces of the thinnest beef you can cut, barely noticeable. The flavor was fine, but you can easily find other places with the same flavor.

J'ai pris le Jjamppong avec du radis, & mon Dieu Seigneur que c'était bon. À tous les niveaux c'était excellent. Même au niveau des quantités quand j'ai terminé j'étais rassasié, sauf que pour des personnes à gabarit moyen à grand ça peut être un peu petit. C'était très propre aussi Je vais définitivement revenir & goûter autre chose.
