Went here for a low-key birthday dinner with a friend. We arrived around 5:30pm and the restaurant…read morewas empty at first, but it filled up pretty quickly after, which is always a good sign. The service was great and our waitress was super attentive, friendly, and really on top of everything. Even though the space is on the smaller side, it didn't feel cramped at all and had a nice, comfortable flow. We ordered the takoyaki and the sushi and sashimi moriwase. The takoyaki was perfectly done, it was crispy on the outside, soft and creamy inside, and full of flavour. The sashimi was incredibly fresh, clean-tasting, and naturally sweet. You can tell the quality of the fish is there. Would highly recommend and will definitely be coming back!

We stopped by here for dinner a couple of weeks ago and quite enjoyed it but if someone could let…read moreme know where to park, that would be great. The owner let us use one of the spots in the back but it didn't appear to be reserved for the restaurant so I'm not sure where else we would have parked. The restaurant gave me pub vibes and was somewhat dark. The staff were super friendly and helpful. We sat near the window where there was a large tv on the wall that was showing a video of a walk around of what one can only assume, is Japan(?). Wherever it was, it was captivating to watch. After perusing their extensive menu, we opted for the Salmon Combo and the Orangeville roll. Both were excellent and presented beautifully. I would definitely love to come back here but the parking is an issue.

One year later, I'm still obsessed with this spot!…read more This is our go to place whenever we're craving for some charcoal bbq. Since we've been here multiple times already, we're familiar with what cuts of meat we like and no longer have to get their beef meat platter. Also love that they currently have new BBQ dishes that are so good! Lemongrass Dai style beef plate 100/5 - LOVED this. This new BBQ dish was so packed with flavour and has the perfect beef marbling. So good we got this twice! Original Wang Galbi 5/5 - Delicious galbi with bone still on. Garlic Beef Plate 5/5 Sweet Soy Beef Plate 5/5 Qiquihar Special Meat 5/5 - Dish comes with cilantro, green onion and onion. Cold Noodle Soup 5/5 - This is a must get since it's so refreshing with all the BBQ meats. Korean style bibimbap 5/5 - LOVE this - comes with tuna and an assortment of other ingredients to mix together. Overall, I can't emphasize enough how delicious this place is. Their meats are high quality and I love that they're all marinated differently so you can really taste the difference in flavour. DIY sauce bar on the side. Great service as well - servers are always around to get you what you need. Definitely worth checking out for sure!

Location/Service This place is near the Yonge/Finch area (a…read morebit more south of Finch near Empress Walk). It's on the second floor of the building, so it's not hard to miss the sign and location. Parking is available around the block - just make sure you're eligible to park there to avoid any tickets. Inside is pretty big, can probably do big group sizes as well with privated areas. Staff were friendly and nice, and can speak English if you have any questions. Food They do charcoal BBQ kind of setup - so I find that a bit more flavorful compared with gas. Their meat selection is pretty premium - although not AYCE - it can fill you up pretty quickly. The meat gets cooked pretty fast too, cause it does become very hot with the charcoal - so it's better to coordinate with everyone to not overcook the food. There is an AYCE dessert bar on the side, which there's a chocolate fountain and a lot of different fruits or small snacks available, including marshmallows to finish up the meal. This place is always packed - the only thing I wish it would work better is their booking system. Even at 9pm, there were 50 tables ahead of me? That's so crazy!

We came here on a recommendation of a friend. It's located across the street from J town in a…read morepretty industrial area. There was sufficient parking and other stores nearby for other treats. Service was good though they were quite busy for a weekday lunch, which is a good sign but can be hard to get a hold of someone. Otherwise, it was great service. Raw marinated crab - warning: this is a super messy dish! You get plastic gloves to help keep your hands relatively clean. We got the half spicy and half regular. The regular soy flavor helped to accentuate the natural fresh flavor of the raw crab. The spicy version has a really nice heat that grows over time. It was nice to have both options. The texture is something to get accustomed to but the crab pairs well on a bowl of rice. The beef stew we got was the seolleungtang. The broth was delicious, light yet flavorful. The beef was super tender and the sauce that came with it also pairs well. Noodles inside and nice and soft. Banchans were also great. The mashed potatoes was smooth, silky, and had a nice sweetness. Radish was spicy and acidic to cut the main dishes. Kimchi was crunchy and spicy with good acidity. Finally, the japchae was freshly made, noodles were good texture, nice hint of black pepper. Price: Arguably a few dollars on average than other Korean restaurants but the quality of food is good.

We didn't actually know this was here but it's been open for a little while now. I'd recommend…read moregoing early cause it looks like there's really not many tables. Service seems quick though and they have a very focused menu (so not 100 items). It's mainly stews, bibimbap, cold noodles, the marinated raw crab and a few small appetizer items. We didn't get to try the raw crab, but nearly everyone around us was ordering it and they seem to quite enjoy it. Could be on the list to try next time for us. The cold noodles were fabulous. Really refreshing and lovely broth flavour. It's also a huge portion. No matter how much I ate, the bowl seemed never to empty. The noodles just kept growing! But oh so delicious, and it came with a small side of broth which was extremely comforting. They had a bulgogi bibimbap, which was made of pork instead of beef, and it was really lovely. Great flavours, lots of veggies, and well cooked meat. The banchans are refillable which I loved seeing. There were four when we visited and I'm not sure if it rotates. We also received a free appetizer of gyoza which was really lovely. I like the ponzu sauce that came with it. Super bright and a great contrast to the meaty flavours. Definitely would love to come back again for a comfy, simple meal. Just have to make a reservation or come early. The parking is also a bit crazy cause of the nearby eateries. There's a small parking lot plus a handful of spaces out front. You can actually usually park in the underground parking as well and I think it's free for the first bit. There's a sign at the front that tells you if you need to get a parking validation from the restaurant I think. Not sure if that's changed. Give it a try!
