Five years ago I would have given this place a full 5 stars. However, food quality seems to have gone downhill. My soon tofu was asked to be extra spicy and yet it came out bland... Not a problem, I asked for hot sauce and they nicely delivered, except adding the large amount of hot sauce didn't help whatsoever. Seemed like I just added more red colored dense oil (without any flavor and definitely not spicy). Usually I love the taste of soon tofu and this was not only not spicy, but too bland.
It feels less authentic now than five years ago when I came here often. The owners have changed, I hear the young workers speaking Chinese whereas before the workers were these older Korean ladies. However, they are still very polite and courteous in greetings so that adds a star to make it 3*.
The prices have increased but that is expected over the years... except soon tofu even at a more prime location than Bamburge circle, such as Yonge Finch aka Korea town, is still around $6.99 to 8.99 max, but here it is now 9.99 which I wouldnt even complain if it weren't so bland. The good thing that stayed was they still serve you 9 glorioius banchan dishes, and you are allowed 3 of them to be replenished.
