Rating: 3 1/2*
The half of star is based on the service.
We came for lunch on a Monday afternoon after spending the morning at the zoo. It was a cold morning so we felt like something comforting to eat and this place was close. This restaurant is located in a plaza full of Chinese businesses. It was fairly busy with only one waitress working the front of the restaurant.
We were promptly seated and we ordered right away since we were hungry. My wife went with the Kimchi chigae, I went with the Jjamppong while my daughter went with the Spicy Pork Lunch Bento box. We also ordered a Donkatsu too.
The food was okay. Nothing exceptional but nothing overly wrong either. The best dish was the Kimchi chigae with the Jjamppong being the most disappointing one. The Jjamppong was sweet instead of being spicy with somewhat generous offer of seafood. However, there was no shrimp. The spicy pork had the same problem. It was sweet instead of being spicy.
Service was adequate along with the prices.
I'm still in search of a great Jjamppong in the GTA...
