| - GaNaDaRa is love. I've heard so much from Korean friends about this place, so I was so excited to make this visit. There's nothing sadder than non-authentic Korean food. GaNaDaRa did not disappoint me.
I'm giving them a 5-star for food because it is SO good. I've tried the cheese toppoki, poutine toppoki, vegetable bibimbap, and sundubu jjigae. The poutine toppoki was something I never would've ordered (and I didn't, my dad did), but ended up blowing my mind. It is indeed the sinful love child of Korean food and Montreal food. Every dish they served had such rich yet comforting flavor, making me miss Asia so much. My usual order is the vegetable bibimbap because I'm vegetarian. The waiters are always so mindful because they always ask me if I'm okay with egg on top, which not many waiters do (though they really should).
The one thing I have a negative impression of is the service. The waiters and waitresses are super friendly and helpful when it comes to giving recommendations and taking orders, but I really think they could make small changes here and there to make their service more efficient. At peak hours, there's a huge line outside (I once lined up for 30-40 minutes for a seat). For now, I recommend going a little earlier so you don't have to wait for too long or to order take-out, but hopefully they'll switch things up in the long-term.
Aah I miss their food already!
