About

The menu features a diverse selection of marinated proteins and traditional sides that emphasize bold, fermented flavors and classic spice profiles. Diners manage their own cooking process using integrated heating elements, which ensures precise control over the texture and searing of every piece.

This establishment prioritizes the communal aspect of Korean dining culture by utilizing central serving platters designed for multiple people.

Not that many Korean restaurants in Montreal. Ambience & surroundings were fine. Service was good. I'm Korean so can judge it by a higher standard. First of all, most Korean restaurants offer barley tea at no extra charge. They offered corn tea & green tea at a charge. Secondly most decent Korean restaurants offer panchan (Korean side dishes including kimchi, sweet potatoes, bean sprouts, spinach salad, etc) as free appetizers & most Korean restaurants are judged by how much & how many appetizers are offered as side dishes. I didn't look at the menu carefully assuming they would be offered but it was on the menu as side dishes you could order. The tofu bibimbap was good. The kimchi jigae (kimchi stew) was tasty. The spicy pork was small & not great by Korean standards. Overall a decent meal but not up to Toronto & certainly not Vancouver standards.

We ordered a soondubu jjigae & kimchi jjiggae. Taste-wise- it was great except the tofu in both stews had gone bad. The portion size is also very little, the kimchi stew barely had any kimchi. The soondubu had maybe 3-4 pieces of seafood. Other wise, service & vibe were great.

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.

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.
