Came here actually looking for my old Pho place next to Pho Hung, but was surprised to see it's gone and has now become a Korean restaurant. I find that odd, since next door there was already a korean restaurant. But curiosity got the best of me. I couldn't help but notice the deliciously looking photos of their dishes posted on the outside of the buidling. They also had many of the popular Korean dishes listed for $5.99 which is a great deal and also with a sign that advertised they give out "7 free side dishes" (banchan). Well, when I walked in, I noticed at least half a dozen of tables with occupants devouring their meals. So that is a good sign in my books.
I'm only giving it a 4 stars is because, service was a bit slow in the beginning. There was only one older lady (probably partial owner) who was serving and taking orders for all the customers.
I ordered the Gam Ja Tang which came out boiling hot. The bowl was stacked to the top and was loaded with meaty pork bones. I only found two pieces of potatoes which I ususally don't care for, so another bonus. It was so tasty and authentic. I would have eaten as fast as the other restaurant patrons if only it wasn't so hot. The side dishes that were included were also very authentic and tasty. They give you quite a generous portion of these as well. I wanted to eat everything in front of me, but it was simply just too much food. Maybe next time, I'll bring someone with me so that I won't feel so guilty for eating so much.
If anyone is in Chinatown and looking for authentic, quality, exceptionally well priced Korean food, look no further than around the corner of Spadina and St. Andrew Street. Please give this place a try! I'm sure it will not disappoint.
