| - What I love about this place is its simplicity. Simple flavors, simple menu. Noodles, shabu shabu, and OH MY GOD THE BIGGEST SUMO WRESTLER DUMPLINGS IN THE WORLD. Myungdong Kalguksu is cozy Korean restaurant tucked away in a Dollarama plaza that isn't heavily populated with restaurants, so it's easy to overlook it on the road. But damn, this place is a must-try. ESPECIALLY THEIR KIMCHI HOLY!!! The yelpers do not l i e.
But despite my enthusiasm for the really good food, the service was absolutely terrible :( The servers seemed apathetic throughout all of service. I had to repeated ask them for tea, and sometimes they would forget about my request. And worst of all, they shoved the bill at us when we weren't even done eating! They told us that it was because the restaurant was getting busy and people were waiting, but still! I just wanted to eat my sumo dumplings the way I want ... When I went up to pay for the bill, the server came to my table and took away my unfinished food too! That's one dumpling I will never able to get back :'(
It's a tragedy that this restaurant lures me with their food and kimchi, but fails to deliver on the experience side.
Overall, if you can tolerate poor service, definitely give this place a try.
