    Bulgogi gimbap and rose tteokbokki
    Wilson C.

    Very attentive service and the food came pretty quickly. The rose tteokbokki was very saucy and flavourful. Ended up trying dipping the gimbap in there as well and thought it was a good combination. Good choice for authentic Korean street food

    The Gimbap Shop is located along Spring Garden near Yonge St. The small shop specializes in all things gimbap where they also have bibimbap, tteokbokki, rice bowls, several noodle dishes, and deep-fried Korean snacks (dumplings, katsu, chicken, fries, etc.) as well. I've been to Gimbap Shop several times for their gimbap which is always freshly made where the rolls are huge! I mainly order online where my food is promptly made and ready in about 15 min or so. Definitely recommend the original, crab meat, and tuna gimbaps! Morever, the tteokbokki and seaweed rolls are great too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, great place for freshly made gimbaps in the Willowdale area![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is friendly and food is delicious!

    Love this place! We love the party trays and have ordered it for my son's birthday party. Also love the variety of Korean comfort street food for lunch and late night. Service is friendly! Even gave us a complimentary to katsu (deep fried pork cutlet) with lunch order 30$. Lunch special is excellent at 13.99 with three items on the plate. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cafe style seating, so unfortunately restaurant is kinda small, wish they have a bigger space :)[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Found this authentic Korean gimbap shop on Yonge Street. It sold special types of gimbap, tteokbokki, and other Korean appetizers. Ordered the spicy pork gimbap and it was suprisingly so good and delicious. Came with 8 pieces and had fresh ingredients, the rolls were huge, and the rice inside was warm and soft. Price was reasonable fair starting at $5.99. Highly reccomend if craving some gimbap or a Korean snack/lunch!

    Gimbap, also romanized as kimbap, is a Korean dish made from cooked rice, vegetables, fish, and meat rolled in gim--dried sheets of seaweed--and served in bite-sized slices. Ambiance - Quaint take-out spot for bite-sized Korean snacks, call it a street fare if you will. Food: Minimalist menu including gimbap, dumplings (mandu) and a variety of Korean street snacks. But come here for the gimbap - made fresh to order. Delicious gimbap to eat with your hands or chopsticks, we got the bulgogi beef and the tuna. The tuna was really delicious, flaky and lots of mayo, good balance of flavors between the freshness of the veggies, the chew of the rice and the sauce they used helped blend the flavors well together. () The bulgogi was lacking a bit of flavor, a little bland to taste so not my favorite. I think they should season this one a bit more with either a sauce or something to give it some more zest. Service: Order at the counter, wait for your food and leave- this is a walk in walk out type of spot, not a dine in restaurant Parking: Ample parking in this plaza, a nice hidden gem in Richmond Hill for something quick and easy that isn't dirty. They have some katsu's on their menu as well but we usually come here for the snacks.. We haven't tried their katsu combos but we will eventually. Overall good experience. Can't go wrong with some authentic ajumas making some good home-made korean food for you.

    Insanely huge and delicious Gimbap. Made to order. Tasted fresh and I liked that it wasn't heavily flavored. Reasonable price as well. If I lived near by I would be here so often. Highly recommend!!

    Convenient little shop for your gimbap fix! Rolls start at $5.99 and the shop offers a selection of fillings. I've tried a tuna and original and prefer and would reorder the classic original taste. Great place for a small lunch/snack.

    Can't believe that a Gimbap shop exists!!! I'm so happy to try genuine Gimbap that is not from a Korean supermarket. It tastes like when my Korean friend's mom made me gimbap in my childhood... I normally don't like fish cakes, but the broth was AMAZING. And the tteokbokki had both egg and cabbage in it.. which was a first!! Highly recommend to try!!

    Came here on a rainy day and there was no parking . The staff was nice enough to drop the food off to my car. This is my go to place for Gimbap, it's better than most grocery stores and restaurants. Not too much rice which is to my liking. I got the original Gimbap. I love this place and I can't wait to go back again

    Authentic Korean gimbap shop! Pleasantly stumbled upon this small gimbap shop by accident & discovered a menu of all my favourite gimbap variations + Korean quick eats/snacks. Upon entering the shop, it's small and is meant for a more grab & go style (although they do have about 3 high chair bar seatings by the window) I would recommend ordering and taking your gimbaps on the road or to a picnic (which we did!) The gimbaps are fairly priced especially with the loaded amount of ingredients in each roll. We ordered the original gimbap and the bulgogi gimbap. Both were great & filling but personally I prefer the bulgogi. However the price of the original ($5.49) makes me want to order this more! The shop seems to be run by a Korean mom (which adds to its authenticity in my opinion!) & she was nice and patient. I did notice the ventilation inside wasn't as good as I would like it to be since I smelled like fried food & oil from being inside for less than 10 minutes. Def recommend this spot for gimbap lovers!

    Great gimbap, friendly staff and reasonable price. No tax if you pay by cash takeout only. Hidden away in the plaza at yonge/Clark. Their gimbap is fresh and flavourful, and our favorite is pepper tuna. So happy I discovered it, will be visiting again when I don't feel like packing lunch for work

    Tonkatsu gimbap
    Michelle L.

    Very delicious gimbap! I ordered Tuna and pickled pepper gimbap, which is very tasty with just a tiny little kick from the pepper, it is not very spicy. My daughter ordered the Tonkatsu gimbap and she said it is very good too! This is our first visit, will definately go back!

I ordered a combo which comes with a selection of noodles/chow mein, a small appetizer, and drink. I chose their traditional Lanzhou beef noodle (you also get to choose what type of noodle to get. I got the medium flat noodle). For app, I got their kelp salad which was so refreshing, and a HK style iced tea. My friend was particularly craving their skewers which were a decent size too. I forgot to take pics, but their portions are very generous for the price. Their noodles are hand pulled and you can really tell the difference in the quality. It's more bouncy and filling as they have more substance to them. Their service was very attentive and quick, and while the space of the restaurant is fairly small, there was no wait for 2 of us at 6:30 on a Saturday. Coming with a bigger group may be tougher considering the space. My total bill came to just under $26 after tax and tip, which is very reasonable for the amount and quality of food I got. No complaints at all and I'll definitely be back to an Omni Noodle location for comfort value eats.

I order the pork belly noodle and upgraded to the potato starch noodles. I like the texture of the clear noodles and there was nice big pieces of the pork belly. The soup was more sour than numbing hot. It was ok, but I think it's more of a personal thing rather than the quality. I think this is a good hot and sour soup if you like that, but it's not my cup of tea. You view the menu and place your order with your phone so don't expect a server will come by and take your order. There is plenty of space in the resto. Parking might be an issue if you are not in walking distance to the restaurant. 3.5*

    It's been over 6 months since I last came here but I decided to come since they were celebrating…read moretheir 5 year anniversary and was offering BOGO for their noodle dishes. The inside is still very modern and sleek. However, the seating is still really uncomfortable since they are still using those hard wooden seats with no back support. The restaurant is also really cramped and tight. Unfortunately, we had to wait over 30 minutes for seating because most of their tables are two-top tables. And we came with 4 people. We ordered their Beef Tendon Noodle, traditional hand pulled beef noodle, stir fried tomato beef noodle, and their Chicken Chow Mein. As for appetizers, we got their bbq traditional chicken wings, BBQ pork belly, and their teppan squid. This time, I thought everything tasted really good. Last time, my complaint was that the hand pulled noodles were way too soft and overcooked. But this time, I asked for a thicker noodle and it came out perfect. It had a nice chew to it and wasn't overcooked. But the stand out for me was actually their stir fried tomato beef noodle and their chicken chow mein. I vastly prefer these two compared to their beef soup noodles. It just has a stronger flavor profile that suits my taste buds more. As for the appetizers, skip the chicken wings. It was $8 for 4 tiny pieces and It's just not worth it. The Teppan Squid and their BBQ pork belly were both AMAZING. It is really strong and flavorful so I would only recommend them if you like strong bold flavors with a bit of spicy kick. Overall, this time I really enjoyed my meal and we got 2 free noodle dishes! I do think the prices are reasonable for the location they are in. They also still charge 2.4% for using your credit card which is quite disappointing.

Service was very friendly and phenomenal. We ordered 2 of their Kalguksu Combo's which came with a choice of meat, rice, side dishes, kimchi, and a bowl of hand pulled noodles. We went with their jaeyuk and bossam. We also ordered their mandu since we heard good things about it. I LOVED their kimchi. It was so flavorful and fresh. The side dishes were just alright. Nothing too special. I didn't really like the Jaeyuk, the flavor is there but the meat just isn't tender. But I've never had tender Jaeyuk or Bulgolgi so maybe that is just how it is. The bossam on the other hand was really delicious, tender and soft. I highly recommend it. The kalguksu was great as well. The soup was hearty and the noodles themselves were so soft with a nice chew to it. The mandu was also really good. They were so large and plump and the wrapper was so thin. This place is amazing for the price! At about $23-24 for each combo, it comes with a ton of food. And their gigantic mandu was only $13.5 for 6. Their Kimchi and Kalguksu was definitely the highlight for me and is comparable to the ones I've had in Seoul. I would definitely come back again. Also if paying by cash, it's 10% off.

We ordered the meat kalguksu, a round of dumplings and my SO ordered the kalguksu set with bulgogi. Everything was really delicious. I would say the quality of the food isn't as high as another joint nearby with the similar cuisine, but at the sametime, they more than make up for it with the large portions and lower prices and the service was great. Definitely some place we will revisit again in the future. Especially love their banchan they serve and the generous bowl of kimchi, enough for our party of 4 without us needing to ask for seconds. By the way the banchan with cabbage turns out to be the sauce for the dumplings too, which was a nice touch. Ambiance is casual and there isn't too much seating and so I feel it's a bit tight as we got the corner seats. Not really anywhere to set a purse, so definitely dress casually to avoid getting splatter from your food and bag if you tend be a messy eater like me.

If you want a drink it's extra $2 for a small hot drink or $3 for a small cold drink. It's a small place that is on the ground floor of petite potato; has about 8-10 tables for two and some bar seats. It's sooooo hot as if there's no AC though so it's not fun slurping a piping hot noodles in a cramped hot space. The floor is also greasy type of slippery. May come back when I crave for cart noodles.
