Maison Chez Bong is a small, cozy basement Korean spot in Chinatown known for authentic flavors, generous portions, and affordable prices. The menu features bibimbap, jap chae, tteokbokki, galbi, and crispy fried chicken, with several reviews praising dishes served in piping hot stone bowls and a warm, inviting ambience. While the vibe is consistently friendly and the service attentive, occasional lines on busy nights are noted and a few critiques mention a touch more salt on jjajangmyeon or a dessert option that is missing. The overall impression is that Maison Chez Bong is a reliable, best in town kind of choice for Korean food, a hidden gem that many would gladly return to for comfort food and quick service.
Endroit très accueillant, les employés sont extrêmement gentils & prennent le temps de nous expliquer ce qui ce présente sur le menu ! ☺?Pour la nourriture j'ai commandé des dumplings aux poulets, ils étaient bon mais manquant seulement un peu de goût, au moins avec la sauce cela donnait un petit goût accidulé intéressant!🥟Pour le bibimbap, très bon aussi. J'ai pris au poisson, il vient frit & la portion est très généreuse.Les légumes Tempura on été mon coup de coeur ❤? Je recommande cette endroit si vous aimez la nourriture hors du commun & aimez les choses épicées 🔥Venez tôt pour mangez car il n'y à pas de réservation & le restaurant est populaire !!😋
This is my favourite Korean place in Montreal. The food is absolutely delicious (my favourite dishes are the shrimp bibimbap, seafood pancake & chicken), the staff is kind & pleasant to interact with, & the kimchi is the best I've had. I often eat at Chez Bong & I like buying their kimchi to take home. Although in a basement the atmosphere is cozy & laid-back. I highly recommend this resto if you're looking for something authentic & good customer service.

Authentic Bulgogi at its best! The flavors were incredible. Probably the best bibimbap in Montreal! The food is fresh, flavorful, & really satisfying. The owner & the staff are super nice & welcoming. Definitely recommend this place!
Had their jjajangmyeong, shared the Dak Kang Jung (general tao chicken) & my friend had their bibimbap.
Small point: Jjajangmyeon was good but perhaps just add a tiny bit of salt it would've been 100%! It was missing that'wok hei' flavour. But nevertheless, food was service was still great.
On m'a recommandé cet endroit & je vais certainement le recommander à d'autres! J'ai beaucoup aimé leur bibimbap & leur tteokbokki.
C'est petit par contre, & ça se remplit vite! On a dû attendre une vingtaine de minutes, mais ça valait la peine. J'ai aussi apprécié de me faire servir en français.
Contrairement à beaucoup de restos, la musique n'est pas trop forte. Juste assez pour créer un bruit de fond.
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.
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)
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.
Excellente cuisine coréenne, meilleur bibimbap de Montréal jusqu'à présent. Le plat est super bien équilibré, l'ambiance est chaleureuse & nous somme bien repus après ce festin !

So delicious! I've been here a few years back & loved the food, came back today & was not disappointed. Friendly staff, excellent delicious food & good pricing. They play kpop music videos inside too! The hot stone bibimbap is amazing, I recommend it if u enjoy this dish. Thanks to the restaurant for providing with a delicious comforting meal in the middle of winter! :))
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.
