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.
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!👍
Everything about this restaurant is great - the food, the service, & the people. The only downsides are the small space & limited ventilation; my clothes usually end up smelling a bit after we eat here. It's not a big issue, but I really hope they can improve the environment for both customers & staff. Honestly, they deserve to expand their business!
Also, a small note to fellow customers: please be considerate. This is a hardworking small business trying to thrive in a tough economy. It's not the kind of place to linger long after finishing your meal - give others the chance to enjoy the food too.
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.
This is THE place for Korean food in the West Island. Every dish is just done to perfection & all very reasonably priced.
We had the Bibimbap, along with a Tofu Soup, Ramen Soup & some fried vegetable dumplings.
It was all just so good.
Service was reasonably fast, considering it was supper time & they were getting a lot of takeout orders as well.
It's not a very big place, seating is limited , so if you want to dine in, be sure to be there a bit before or little bit after peak lunch/supper hours.
No matter which dish you try, you won't be disappointed.
