| - My cousin took me here, advertising it as amazing Korean barbecue, and some of the best in the GTA. A disclaimer, as you can see from my review history: I'm a huge snob about my Korean food. Living in Los Angeles has given me a good palate for kbbq-- even the slightly sketchy all-you-can-eat kind.
So, keeping that in mind, the food here is fine by Toronto standards, but it wouldn't survive ten minutes in LA. The chicken, pork and beef bulgogi all tasted like they had marinated it in the same sauce, and that sauce had no real heat or flair to it-- only a kind of boring, flat sweetness, not unlike barbecue sauce. The same goes for the banchan. The kimchi was under-fermented, and the other side dishes were clearly phoned in.
Come on, Toronto, you're a major metropolitan area. You can do better than this.
