Petit Tokebi is described as a charming, intimate spot with a cozy, private feel that works well for dates and relaxed meals. Bibimbap is repeatedly praised, with many calling it the best in Montreal and the miso soup a standout, though a few reviews note a small menu and occasional inconsistency. The atmosphere is often described as super chill and welcoming, with distinctive decor and a touch of jazz that enhances the dining experience. Service is generally fast and friendly once seated, though some reviews mention a first come, first served policy and that the owner isn’t always there to serve. The space is noted to be very small, sometimes feeling smaller than it looks, with a private Asian vibe and a tiny outdoor terrace that adds charm. Occasional cleanliness concerns are reported, but many diners agree the meals are delicious and the portions are generous for two, offering good value. Overall, Petit Tokebi stands out as a reliable option for tasty Korean dishes, a memorable intimate setting, and a go-to for a pleasant, uncomplicated meal with a date or a casual outing, while acknowledging that the experience can vary.
Had such a fun night this weekend at Le Petit Tokebi. It's a very small, intimate Korean spot that feels authentic the minute you walk in. We were four & all really enjoyed it.
We started with edamame, spring rolls, & dumplings. All were fresh, flavorful, & perfect for sharing.
We each ordered the bibimbap & it did not disappoint. I had the beef & loved it. So flavorful & perfectly cooked.
Service was warm & attentive, portions were generous, & the quality of the food was excellent. It's great authentic Korean food in a cozy setting & very reasonably priced. Definitely recommend.

Restaurant très charmant & accueil chaleureux. Les bibimbaps sont très bons, la viande particulièrement tendre & les tables donnent un petit espace plus privé sans être trop fermées.
Average bibimbap, not traditional style, no complimentary banchan, & miso soup tasted like it was made from a packet pre-made mix. Service was good, food was timely, but soju cost 27 cad, which was a major surprise & honestly outrageous because soju is such a cheap alcohol. it's not like i got hwayo, left a very bad taste in my mouth. & after I even still tipped well & paid without a big fuss, the chef didn't even say thank you after I said thank you & that the food was good. Overall not a place you'd go back to often, & not memorable enough to go to once in a blue moon. Skip.
Love this place! The food is great, especially the bibimbap, which is tasty & extremely satisfying. The space is intimate & relaxing, & the jazz music is a great touch. Service is fast, friendly, & efficient. Highly recommended!!

Une belle découverte! Tout était parfait, nous avons commandé un bibimbap, une bento box ainsi que le BBQ coréen. 10/10 pour les trois. Belles options pour les végétariens aussi! & l'ambiance est très chouette.
Hopes were rather high based on the latest reviews... frankly we were quite disappointed by the beef bibimbaps, overall lacking flavour & a rather odd choice of ingredients. Felt waaaaay overpriced for the quality. Miso soups were more palatable. Service was pleasant, however space definitely felt cramped since we were a table of 3 squished between the wall & a much bigger group. Overall atmosphere was welcoming though, cozy vibes all the way. Also wondering why tips are still being calculated after taxes after the bill was passed?

Cute little restaurant in NDG, some of the tastiest Korean food I've had in Montreal. We went for the Korean BBQ for 2, it was delicious & we felt it was very good value. The bibimbap was the best I've had. Service was efficient & quick, & the place is very nicely decorated. If you're looking for a place with some intimacy, this is definitely one.
A little bit expensive compared to other Korean places for the quantity & quality. The bibimbap had the smallest clump of rice at the bottom & the beef did not taste fresh. It's a cozy restaurant with a semi private feel since there are curtains hung between tables.
Bibimbap is really tasty. The food had so much flavour. I am not fan of a rice but I really like this dish. It was the first time that I have tried this but I am going to order it again. Service was good. Restaurant is small place & not that spacious almost no sunlight because it is in basement. Thank you for good food.

Extremely delicious food, enjoyed every minute of it! If you're intolerant to spicy foods & you order the bibimbap, make sure to get it without kimchi! Very cosy atmosphere.
What an amazing place to have in your neighborhood. First off, the décor is beautiful, with the tables each somewhat segregated from the others & a lot of art all around. We had two Bibimbap, one chicken & one tofu. The flavor was great & was it ever hot, perfect for frying that egg. The prices are great & the service is very friendly & not at all interrupting. Can't wait to return!
Very cool place with a different atmosphere, great food & great service for a good price. I've had the Japanese bento box & the Korean bibimbap & both were delicious!
Excellente nourriture (j'ai mangé des bibimbaps), prix raisonnables, service courtois, très belle atmosphère & décoration (on se croirait en Corée). Je recommande d'y aller manger!
