Looking for a new Korean restaurant while i'm around & been told about this restaurant. The place looks small, but the food is delicious. We ordered bibimbap & there are 2 options, the regular bowl or the hot plate (with extra charge). The vegetable portions are big & the food is good. They also have french fries & bean sprouts for free too, which is a nice additional to the main meal. They also have fried chicken, which we will try in the future.
Everything was amazing! The food was delicious. The garlic & soya fried chicken was my favorite ever! Best Korean fried chicken ever. The pork dumplings were also very good. The service was great too. Our server was very sweet & the service was very quick.

very cute spot !
we ordered the bulgogi bibimbap & the garlic soy fried chicken. the fried chicken was the main star: crispy & savory ! would go again for it
service was fast & friendly; side dishes are refillable.
Food was amazing, staff was very friendly & thoughtful, atmosphere gave a cozy vibe. 10/10 would go back if I'm in the mood for Korean fried chicken. They offer very delicious sides to go with the main dishes too, loved the experience!
An intimate dining room busy with happy customers & a delicious menu of Korean delicacies. The Bulgogi hotpot, Kimchi Beer Jjigae, & fried chicken were outstanding.

Hands down my favourite Korean restaurant on the whole island. I recommend getting their Jjigae (kind of like a Korean stew with your choice of protein &/or tofu), & a plate of their fried chicken. Maybe the best fried chicken I've had in North America since visiting Korea in 2019. GO HERE!
Really delicious! We ordered takeout & loved the flavours of the bibimbap, dumplings & fried chicken. All the sauces were very yummy as well! We will definitely be eating here again, this is a must-have for Korean food in MTL!
I liked it a lot, a little strange that there is a difference in price to get your bimibap on the heated. The large portion of chicken is way to much for one person, so if you order this, get it to share.
Finally got to try this restaurant! Got the Tteokbokki & fried chicken to share with a friend & the portions are good to share & not feel too bloated afterwards. The service is fast & friendly, it feels very cozy & welcoming. The food was delicious & I would come back for sure to try out the rest of the menu!
