Reviews consistently praise MoonSikdang for authentic Korean flavors and solid execution across a range of dishes. The bibimbap in a hot stone bowl is repeatedly highlighted for its crispy rice and vibrant toppings. Spicy tofu soup and other seafood dishes are described as deeply flavorful with notable seafood umami. Seafood pancake and green onion pancake tend to be well liked for taste, though portions can feel small and the texture slightly variable. Fried chicken is tasty but some diners wish for crisper crust and more generous portions. Service is frequently described as friendly and attentive, with staff going out of their way to be helpful during busy times. Weekend crowds mean reservations are advised and the restaurant is regarded as one of the best Korean spots on the south shore of Montreal. Overall the reviews point to MoonSikdang as a reliable and authentic choice that can be pricier but often worth it for the quality.
This place is absolutely amazing. All the foods are tasty & VERY AUTHENTIC. I'm a Korean & even among Koreans, their food is popular. Some of you might think it's slightly expensive than the other restaurants but it worths the price.
Suggestion: better reserve the spot on the weekend to make sure you can dine in.
One of the best Korean restaurants in Montreal! The portions are huge, & you can't go wrong ordering anything from the menu-it's surprisingly authentic, even better than many places in Korea. Must-try dishes include the bone-in fried chicken, kimchi pancake, seafood pancake, & BBQ bulgogi. The only downside is that the restaurant is quite small, so there's almost always a wait.

The food was absolutely delicious - I ordered the Bibimpam in a hot stone bowl & it was packed with flavor, perfectly balanced, & beautifully presented. The rice had that perfect crispy texture from the hot bowl, & the vegetables were fresh & well-seasoned. On top of that, the restaurant was spotless - very clean & well-maintained, which made it even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Korean cuisine in a nice setting!
Amazing Korean restaurant!
The Bulgogi set & Yukhoe Bibimbap (a rice bowl topped with fresh raw beef & vegetables) were fantastic.
Beautiful presentation & generous portions.
I heard the chef already has many years of experience in Korea.
Even non-Korean guests will enjoy the authentic yet approachable flavors.
From what I can tell, it's already well-loved by many guests - booking ahead is a good idea, especially on Friday nights.
Food was delicious! I think this restaurant is authentic. The best Korean restaurant in the south shore that is actually run by Koreans. Although the dishes are a bit on the pricier side, the quality & taste is worth the price. I recommend the spicy pork (jeyuk) as it had a nice grilled flavour & was well seasoned. The dolsot bibimbap came pipping hot & the rice was super crispy. We also ordered the galbitang which had a nice clean flavour. We saw a lot of locals ordering that too. The seafood pancake was also a home run. Nice & light. Perfectly crispy & not too much batter. Will be back again!!
The dishes tasted great. It was a little pricey, but worth it. The side dishes were great. It's hard to find a good authentic & family owned Korean restaurant on the south shore.
Do not miss out on this restaurant! Every dish is amazing. I usually don't enjoy Korean pancakes, but I would eat this one everyday if I could afford it. Thank you for providing the south shore with a delicious & authentic experience. I miss eating here even when I'm away in Toronto & Vancouver!

This is an authentic family-run Korean restaurant, much different than mainstream all-you-can eat Korean BBQ restaurants. Very few restaurants in Greater Montreal like this one can make you exclusive Korean dishes such as bibimbap or pa-jeon. My bibimbap was served in a traditional sizzling hot stone bowl & the pa-jeon was crispy hot delicious! Unlike some reviews, this restaurant cannot be compared to cheap Chinese food restaurants. It is in a category (& culture) of its own, & we cannot wait to return to explore other dishes of their wide-range menu!
Very charming & authentic Korean restaurant. The dishes are always fresh & absolutely delicious. There is no other Korean restaurant that I’ve tried in the Montreal area that comes close to the level of professionalism from the staff as well as having an exciting & delicious menu.
