I've been waiting to review my favorite restaurant in montreal for quite some time. I've been here more times than I can say and normally that is paired with "spent more money than I'm comfortable telling" but that isn't the case for Kantapia. Everything is reasonably priced, with an average of $8 or $9 for a main dish. Everything on the menu is delicious, starting from the appetizer dumplings (fried or steamed) to the bibimbap (served room temperature or warm) to the always deliciously warm (and slightly spicy raymans. A favorite of mine & my boyfriend is to share the bibimbap & mandu rayman to balance out the cold & hot, fresh & salty tastes of the platters.
What I can't skip out on though is the overall atmosphere of this place, quite literally from a Korean cartoon "Kantapia" exhibits it so with a bubbly charm. The homey setup of the kitchen that opens up to the eating area creates a comfortable experience so that you know your food is served freaked and prepared with care. Usually I can find a small negative in every place that I feel necessary to point out, but honestly, this is one of my favorite Asian food places Montreal, keep on doing great things!
All servers are generally foreign so have patience when it comes to comprehension! It is not out of rudeness that they ask you to repeat your order!
