Reviews describe Matjip as a casual Korean spot where the food delivers consistently, with fried chicken, bulgogi and bibimbap among the crowd pleasers and flavors that feel authentic and comforting. Diners praise juicy, well seasoned chicken and a range of dishes that balance sweetness and savor without feeling greasy, often noting generous portions and good value for the price. The service is repeatedly highlighted as friendly, patient, and attentive, with welcoming vibes and willingness to accommodate requests, even during busy times. A halal menu is mentioned, and many appreciate the variety of choices that reflect Korean flavors with broad appeal. Some feedback points include a desire for more vegetable variety in certain dishes, occasional dryness in chicken on one order, and the reality that the small space and limited ventilation can lead to lingering smells, though these are outweighed by the food and hospitality. Takeout and in-store app ordering are convenient, and leftovers are commonly enjoyed, reinforcing the sense of reliable comfort food. Overall, Matjip comes across as a dependable go-to for Korean comfort food, loved by regulars for its consistent flavor, friendly service, and easygoing atmosphere.
Went for a late lunch. We had the bibimbap, beef bulgogi, & fried chicken. Service was fast & friendly. Food was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.

The beef bibimbap & pork bibimbap were very authentic, & the seafood pancake was good too. The fried chicken was a bit greasy for my taste. Overall, a great place-I'd definitely come back.
We ordered the Wang Galbi (half) chicken & the Dakgalbi. Both were very delicious & was enough for two people.
The chicken was super juicy & crispy. The sauce was not overly sweet. It tasted in between honey garlic & soy sauce & it did not feel greasy.
The dakgalbi was very hot once served. It was very flavourful. I wish there were more varied ingredients such as potatoes or cabbage just like the ones I've had in Ontario. This one was strictly chicken & rice cakes.
I absolutely love Matjip - I've become obsessed. The spicy stir-fried rice cakes & fried chicken are unreal, & the beef bulgogi bento box tasted amazing. This is my go-to spot when I come home late from work - it just hits the spot every single time. Comfort food done right, full of flavor & always satisfying. Highly recommend!
Fantastic food have been numerous times now. Friendly staff & the food is delicious. We have tried many dishes & their fried chicken love it all. We will be going back regularly even thought it's a hike for us 30+ min drive. Generous portions excellent food. Plenty of parking
Excellent fried chicken not gready at all & perfectly cooked. All our dishes & appetizers were delicious . We don't live close by but this place though very casual atmosphere has excellent food. Great service, good prices . We ordered a lot of food so even had leftovers for the next day .

Great small spot for Korean fried chicken. Shrimp tempura is classic. The noddles were good too but I would definitely come back for the fried chicken. The staff were welcoming & kind as well.
First experience at Matjip. We went because it was recommended to us by friends. Food came very quickly & was delicious. We tried fried veggie dumplings, veggie bibimbap & fried chicken. I forgot my purse when I left & only noticed when I got home. Thet kept it safely for me until I got back. Really appreciated their great service!

I came to this restaurant a while back completely on a whim, yet to this day i dont regret it & continuously come back for their amazing food. Their chickenkatsu dish is sublime with amazing sides accompanying it. All that & the staff are always kind & smiling whenever you enter. With the price of fast food rising everywhere, it feels great to enjoy their food comparable in price to the lower standard competition as a much better alternative. Would definitely recommend it any day of the week 👍
The chicken was delicious & the staff were very friendly. The soy sauce was especially tasty, & adding extra sauce let me enjoy a variety of flavors. I'll definitely order again next time.
Highly recommended!👍
Good food, great portions! You must have the fried chicken & We enjoyed the creamy onion sauce on the side. The bulgogi udon & bulgogi special are winners.

Absolutely LOVE theit food ! We go often at least twice a month ! The chicken is consistently tasty every time we visit. Very well seasoned & juicy ! Our favorite flavors are cream& onion & sweet&spicy ! Love their combo plates. Absolutely LOVE their Bulgogi Udon noodles ! A must try for you if you love fried chicken….
I ordered a large to-go portion of the boneless chicken, but the quantity was noticeably smaller than what I've received in the past. Many of the pieces were tiny or just crumbs, & it definitely didn't feel worth the $32 price. I've always chosen this restaurant for fried chicken & soup because the quality has been consistently good - but unfortunately, not this time. I'm really disappointed.
Very good spot for Korean comfort food! The fried chicken was crispy & flavorful, & the bulgogi tasted authentic & satisfying. A cozy vibe with friendly service…worth checking out.
