Mon Ami Korean BBQ

We were seated quickly but the waitress took a while to hand us menus, even though there were hardly any people in the restaurant. We also had to ask for water as they did not serve us this initially

We had a pretty simple order of dumplings, teokbokki with ramen, & kimchi jigae. After waiting for about 15 mins, the waitress came to re-take our entire order as she claimed the kitchen made a mistake. After another 15 mins the dumplings came but it was in a takeout container.

After another 10 mins, the teokbokki came in a dolsot pot which I've never seen anywhere in all my time in Korea or any Korean restaurant for the matter. On top of that, they forgot to add the ramen despite billing us for it. The teokbokki tasted okay but was incredibly watery, almost like a soup.

The kimchi jigae, which should've come in the dolsot pot, as is done in any other korean restaurant & in Korea, came in what Koreans use as a ramen pot. This also should've come with rice (as written in the menu), but we had to ask for it. The jigae itself tasted alright.

Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant if you're looking for authentic Korean cuisine. The service was not very good & it doesn't seem like they have an understanding of how to cook Korean food.

I went here with my boyfriend yesterday for diner expecting to have a nice experience, I entered & the server didnt't even set up the tables & just put all the utensils to the side of the table without setting it up, she was having trouble speaking english & was constantly just eating at the back, not to mention the food was honestly mediocre compared to other korean restaurants.

We were immediately seated upon arrival & we didn't have to wait long for our order to be taken. The wait for the food wasn't very long either, & it was good! I ordered the Bulgogi udon noodles & the beef was cooked to perfection; it was my favorite part of the meal. The portion size was pretty big for me, so I had more than enough food to eat.

Vraiment très bon restaurant coréen ! Le poulet frit est excellent, & le bibimbap est servi dans un bol noir traditionnel bien chaud, ce qui garde le plat à la bonne température. Les ingrédients sont frais & savoureux. Les frites qui accompagnent le poulet frit sont aussi parfaites.

Les sauces piquante & miel-moutarde sont délicieuses. Le restaurant est propre & l'ambiance est agréable.

Quelques petits points à améliorer : la climatisation est vraiment très forte, alors je recommande d'apportez un chandail. Le service pourrait aussi être un peu plus attentif. Par exemple, lorsqu'on commande des entrées à partager, ce serait apprécié qu'on apporte des assiettes pour les partager.

Dans l'ensemble, une très belle expérience & j'y retournerai avec plaisir.

We used to love Mon Ami & visited frequently. It used to be a fantastic, family-friendly spot:the food was great, the kids loved the coloring activities while waiting, & there was a wonderful Filipino server who always made us feel incredibly welcome (we miss him). You could tell the business truly cared.

Unfortunately, over our last few visits (spanning about the last 6 months), we've noticed a significant decline. Our visit today was the most disappointing yet. We ordered our favorite, the spicy fried chicken, but it wasn't spicy at all. When I brought this to our server's attention, he simply shrugged his shoulders instead of checking with the kitchen or offering a solution.

It feels like the restaurant is currently just trying to survive rather than maintain the high standards they used to have. I am leaving this review because we truly want the owner to take action, fix the service, & bring Mon Ami back to its former glory.
