I don't normally write reviews but my kids love it so much we be going back forsure. The spicy beef udon & curry katsu is a big win for me. Omg the flavours. Kids love the spicy Taboki with extra cheese n ramen it's so addicting. Beef tartare n seafood pancake n fry chicken is a must get if u wanna drink n eat :) There is something for everyone & for the price your paying its fair. A hidden gem in MTL downtown

My favorite Korean restaurant in all of Montreal! I recommend the spicy udon, chicken katsu ramen, & udon curry. You won't be disappointed.

Good service & nice vibes. However, the cook was not on par with the google ratings. I ordered the chicken curry dish & the chicken was burnt (ruined the taste of the whole meal). The soup with udon was meh. Told them very spicy, got mild. I think the old cooks from a few years ago were better. Maybe need more experience.

We got all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ

- Bad service. We had to reach to our waiter for almost anything: water, a new grill, extra plates. We kept being told that we’d have to pay for pieces we didn’t eat. It was very annoying, & gives a cheap look.
- Extremely cramped. Chairs have no back support
- Dirty. Bathroom smelled bad & looked like it wasn’t cleaned for a while.
- Overall pricey for what you get. Kimchi & beef were great. Pork & chicken were mediocre.

I won’t go back. For 50-60$ CAD you can get better service & more gastronomic meals elsewhere.
