We were happy to have been seated right away when we came on a Sunday night at around 18:00. This small restaurant got full not long after & a line was already forming. The service was professional & quite efficient but they weren't really friendly or really welcoming. The food itself was delicious. I really enjoyed the different combinations of flavours in each dishes & I also enjoyed the squishy texture of the rice cakes. The soup was bursting with flavours as well & the sweet & sour pork was flavorful too. The sauce they made accompanied the fried pork so well. The light crispness with the tender meat was just great. We ordered the small portion of the pork & it was surprisingly large which was amazing as well.

We've been craving for korean food & looking for an authentic one. Feel like this place made really great korean food. First thing first, the best fried chicken that i've tried in this city (so far) i mean the sauce tastes flavorful. We ordered tteok-bokki woth cheeses.. amazing. The texture is so great..soft & chewy, eating with the sauce.. yummm The cold noodles is really refreshing..the wheat noodles is so chewy. Good price. Parking available on the side if the street Will definitely come back to try more.

Very good service! The meal came fast. The waiters are so polite & kind. It's our third time there & we will go again. The food is de-li-cious. Many vegetables, beautiful sauces, well presented. We love the ambiance: it's calm even if there's many clients. The music is just at the right level. The lights are dimmed. Definitely an excellent choice!

most things are pretty good & fresh, service is great, but their soup broths need more depth of flavour (I find them a bit watery) & everything needs to be spicier, the soups are always way less spicy & salty than at other places. last time, my mom got a chicken bibimbap & said the chicken was really chewy & flavorless & the sauce tasted like nothing :(

Update 14-Sep-2024 Everything was delicious as per usual. We tried different dishes this time which were the kkanpoongi (sweet & sour fried chicken) & the jaenbang naengmyeon (cold noodle with wasabi-based sauce). The kkanpoongi was so tasty, crispy & the chicken was juicy! The cold noodle dish was so refreshing & I liked the wasabi sauce. It was big enough to feed at minimum 2 people. Will be coming back & ordering these two dishes along with the tangsuyuk & hot stone bibimbap. _____ Update 06-Jul-2024: Service was amazing! Our waiter was so kind & food came out quick. Size large tangsuyuk is HUGE! Bibim naengmyun, tangsuyuk & dolsot bibimbap were my faves. ------- Found this resto through TikTok & saw that they had just recently renovated from more of a counter spot to a dine in resto. The food was sooooo delicious. We got the special of the week which included a jajangmyeon & tangsuyuk for 19.99!!!! Definitely a bang for your buck. We also ordered the webfoot octopus which was perfectly balanced & not too spicy. Everything tasted amazing, the portions were generous & the value for the food here is unmatched. Will definitely be back!!

I think I have a new favourite restaurant. This place was so good. Service was quick, the person who took our order was so nice, the food came super fast, & it all tasted super fresh & delicious. I also really appreciate that they leave a whole jug of water on the table for you. Their prices might be unbeatable for Korean food in Montreal, especially considering the large portion sizes. We didn't expect to get banchan included with the meal at these prices but we were pleasantly surprised. The soju (flavoured soju too!) is also cheaper than other places I've seen, keep in mind though that you can't get it to go. We kept our orders pretty basic due to not having the biggest appetites at the time, but all of what we got was delicious. I'm especially looking forward to coming here in the winter for some of their soups. The tonkatsu was crispy & juicy, the rice was perfect, & all the sauces were great. I appreciate that it wasn't super heavy on the sauce (there are two layers of pork in the photo, so it's an appropriate amount of sauce). The jjajangmyeon was "very delicious, the noodles were so good" according to my partner. He thought the sauce was a thinner than what would be expected for this dish but that's more a comment, not a complaint by any means. Overall I highly recommend this place.

Updated: I have to say that I preferred when they were a counter service. The prices are still reasonable, but portions have shrunk considerably. The ingredients in the bibimbap was disappointing. I have yet to try their tripe & seafood dishes. Unpretentious & stellar Korean street food: Kogos, fried battered chicken & tofu in sweet spicy sauce, battered vegetables, stews & noodles. Prices are below market rate (the container of freshly fried tofu was $4.99). I'll definitely be back soon to try their spicy fish dishes.
