  • I'd give Bon-Ga 4.5 but definitely tilts toward 5. What can I say? My wife and I think this is our 2nd favourite restaurant Calgary (South Indian style 'Raj Palace' in Harvest Hills near the northern T&T is first, and Pure Vietnamese Kitchen on 8th Ave downtown a tie). The owners at Bon-ga are just wonderful: the husband speaks fairly good English and knows how to coordinate things well, and is flexible in trying to please patrons' special requests; his wife is the chef, and she's got some great recipes in her head. The food. All of it is good, but we tend to order two dishes over and over again: gumjatang (pork backbone & potato soup), and sizzling spicy squid & pork. Gumjatang has a very distinct flavour that likely isn't matched by any other dish on the planet. It's also a favourite of the owners when they and their staff sit down for lunch mid-afternoon. The spicy dish has a flavour that would be hard to duplicate, but it's simply delicious. The squid is nicely sliced and tender, the veggies are varied and plentiful, and the pork always tender thin strips. But the flavour! Wow. Oddly enough, when we swap sauces for our small rice bowls and trade meat and veggies, they seem to complement each other despite being flavoured so differently. Copy us if you want... The appetizers are many (about 5-8 is customary), always fresh and nice cross-section of variously flavoured veggies, strips of flavoured tofu, nicely-chewy seaweed, excellent kimchi, delicious sprouts, and such. So much nutrition in them alone! A mild Korean tea comes with the meal(s), and after 2 years, the service and food has held up wonderfully well. Go there, and experiment with the unique flavours of 'good' Korean food but I'd suggest you stick with the core dishes, and stay away from the bento boxes and the lunch specials that tend to be much less impressive, as they try to cover too much ground and don't satisfy for whatever reason. Just like in other cuisines and countries, there are the many dogs, and then standouts like Bon-ga. Enjoy.
