| - Based on food alone, I would give Ga Bin 4 stars, but service dragged the overall rating down to 3 or 3.5*
The main problem is that the restaurant appears to be very understaffed. I came with my mom on a Sunday night and it was fairly busy, and we only had two employees manning the whole place. Because of that, service was slow, and it was quite difficult to get a server's attention. Although I would add that the servers were very friendly.
Service issues aside, I was quite pleased with the food. Between my mom and I, we ordered a seafood tofu soup, spicy rice cake, and a bibimbap. All were excellent and we got plentiful refills of banchan. Portions are good and we ended up packing almost half of our meal home for leftovers the next day.
All in all, I would come back to Ga Bin - it's a good option for Korean outside of the Finch and Yonge area. However, I'd avoid peak hours if possible!
