An authentic Korean restaurant in Chinatown. Casual atmosphere serving good Korean dishes.View more
If you're looking for an authentic Korean restaurant in Montreal, this is a great option. It's located right in Chinatown, so it's quite easy to find & accessible by metro. The menu is diverse, featuring traditional Korean dishes like bibimbap & tempura. Prices are reasonable, & the owner & staff are very friendly.View more
Best Korean place in Montreal!!! I love all the whole menu!View more
Greasy. One of the worst Korean meals i've had in montreal so far, I should of saved my $.View more
Bibimbap was excellent as well as the kimchi pork stir fry. Will come back again for sure. I love that they also offer bibimbap in two types of bowls. One in dolsot (hot) & in stainless bowl (cold, which I prefer.. most Koreans do I feel)View more
We were a group of three people, went a little after 12:30, there was no line so we didn't wait. We ordered 150$ worth of food, took home some really good pickled radish (insanely good & cheap) & enjoyed some soju there. We ate everything so fast we didn't even have time to take pictures. The lady there was sweetest ever, 100/10 recommend to anyone in the area, it really is THE place in Chinatown to get Korean foodView more
The restaurant is situated in a basement & accessible only through the stairs. Overall experience was ok, the place is small but functional. Ordered the hot bibimbap & the potato as a side, the bibimbap was filling & really nice, only complain is the beef amount probably around 20g if not less, basically non existent but vegetables really fresh & tasty, the potato side I simply loved it. I remember the sides used to be included in the main dish but I guess cost got too high. Prices are fair for what you get so a solid option for Korean food.View more
Not bad but not great Korean food in Chinatown. They don't serve banchan & the flavours aren't as bold as other Korean places but overall it was decent.View more
Little restaurant on St Laurent, in the heart or Chinatown, that showcases amazing Korean food. The food was ro die for; fresh, hot, flavorful & decent portions. The hospitality & service was truly one of the best I've ever had. Most definitely recommend & will be back to share this beautiful spot with friends & family.View more
Cozy spot, very respectful staff. Food was fresh & delicious, a must for Korean food lovers! Big portions!View more
Had high hopes for this place given the Google reviews but left feeling disappointed. We love trying Korean restaurants & I've heard this place mentioned quite a few times. The restaurant no longer offers banchan to reduce costs which was pretty surprising. Instead of offering it on request, they charge a few dollars per side dish which was incomprehensible to me. The food was good but the portions were small for the price point. The tteokbokki was pretty good & the pork & tofu stir fry was good but could have used more pork & tofu for the price. My husband wanted tempura instead of the pajeon & we were super disappointed - we ordered the mixed vegetable tempura & it was just a bunch of chopped veggies in pajeon batter served in clumps. It was mostly batter to veggie ratio which was a disappointment. Service was prompt but cold. The bathrooms were dirty & grim. I went in before leaving & watched a girl ahead of me & walk in & immediately out. I was surprised to see things like tempura & general Tao on the menu at a Korean place. Overall, I've tried over a dozen Korean places in the city & this has certainly been my least favourite to date. There are certainly better options near Guy Concordia with more authentic menus - this felt like a tourist spot as I don't understand the ratings here for what we got.View more
I had an amazing dining experience at the Korean restaurant! The food was outstanding, with authentic flavors that truly captured the essence of Korean cuisine. The service was top-notch, & the staff went above & beyond to make us feel welcome. We are group of 6 & came at lunch time, instead of refusing, they even give us more food. Moreover, the cozy ambiance added to the overall enjoyment of the meal. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone seeking a fantastic Korean dining experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️View more
Always going back to this spot for the cozy atmosphere & great Korean food!View more
I simply enjoy Chez Bong, I prefer Korean dishes to Korean BBQ & they have them all, from bibimbap & pancakes to rice cake even on skewer... amazing presentation, nice tableware. Good service.View more
Best Japchae I've had in Montreal-best Korean food in fact!View more
We scored Bibimbab 8/10. The Grill pork is definitely 10/10. This is a very good boutique Korean restaurant. Doesn’t look much from the road frontage, but as soon as you walk in you can tell it is a place to have one of the best Korean in town👍View more
This restaurant was on my Wish List for a while but when I did finally get to visit it, I was disappointed. Chez Bong is a very small & basic basement restaurant with fairly courteous servers who could be more attentive. While the Korean pancake appetizer was delicious, the rest of the meal was disappointing as the Spicy Noodle soup was not spicy as advertised & not very tasty; the Marinated, Grilled Beef Ribs & Marinated, Grilled Chicken were tasty but the portions were very small & because the portions are small, & everything has to be ordered individually, the cost adds up & amounts to much more than I would want to pay for the food & surroundings offered by Chez Bong. My visit was not unpleasant but the restaurant does not warrant a second visit IMO.
We never had before Korean food, we decided to give it a shot. The two side dishes were tasty; potatoes & Kimichi (fragmented cabbage)
We order Seafood soup as a main dish & stir fried octopus. Octopus was very rubbery; some pieces were hard to swallow. The seafood was full of tofu. The prices compared to the quality of food was high.
I will still give Korean cuisine another chance but maybe not in Montreal.
By Montreal standards, this is a capable Korean restaurant (tasty food, serious execution but do not expect fancy modern take of Korean fares, they apply themselves to be homey/traditional but of course, with local ingredients, therefore do not try to compare what is done here to what is done in Asia / at least they try to get as close as possible to that standard), indeed. Their kimchi particularly well done in view of what I came to expect from Korean restaurants in Montreal.
