The bibimbap was pretty good. They gave a hearty amount of beef and purple rice. There was also an abundant amount of veggies such as spinach, cucumbers, carrot and kale. The sauces were nice and savoury although the red sauce was not spicy enough. It was great that they put the sauces in separate containers so you could pour them to your own liking. The salmon bbq roll on the other hand wasn't up to par. The rice was not regular sushi grade rice and there wasn't that much filling on the inside. The prices were a bit expensive on Uber ($15.99 for bibimbap), however there was an ongoing promo of if you spend $20+ you would receive the salmon roll for free. We ended up eating at their onsite patio and it was a pretty good experience. The staff were super friendly. Overall, would come again but just call on the phone to order instead of ordering off Uber to save a couple bucks.

Great ambiance. The taste of the food is legit. Service was good. I definitely recommend.read more

Choun is a hidden gem in Ontario. We stumbled upon this family owned restaurant when my nephew was…read morecraving ramen. Google ratings for this quaint establishment were not wrong! They specialize in Southeast Asia cuisine, namely Laotian takes on neighbouring regional cuisines like Thai, Korean, and Japanese dishes. The menu is diverse but shows intentionality. The standout dish for us was definitely the laksa. It was creamy and spicy and flavourful. Unlike other laksas I've tried it wasn't watery like a soup but was more of a richer curry bisque texture if that makes sense. The chicken pieces were tender. There were lots of vegetables in the broth. My Asian barbecue ribs were sweet-savoury. The kimchi cabbage coleslaw was tasty but I just ate some of it because I was too full from drinking up the rest of hubby's leftover laksa broth. My ramen-loving nephew devoured his miso ramen. Sara was so sweet and brought my nephew to meet the chef and kitchen crew. She also brought us complimentary Asian style churros. She offered great insight into the menu as well as her brother Bobby's journey into this business and his intention of highlighting Laotian cuisine. I was describing to a friend how at one point, a random Christmas song came on the playlist (it was March). With the warmth of family around me, my belly satiated from the delicious meal, it did feel a lot like Christmas in that one moment. Amazing food (I still dream about that laksa) and awesome staff made for a very memorable dining experience that we look forward to repeating the next time we are in the Cambridge area.

But for others, it may be an acquired taste. I loved that they did a complimentary Amuse Bouche! Cocktails: -Singapore sling (4/5) -Under the bridge (4/5) Food: -Duck Leg Confit (4/5) I liked the idea with wrapping it with the betel leaf -Seared Scallops & pork belly (5/5) the combination of these flavours and textures with the crunchy pork belly and the scallops were so creative. Loved the green sauce, used it even with the duck confit dish -Black cod & clam yellow curry (5/5) amazing portion and literally licked the curry off the plate. The server was great for splitting this main into two plates for easier sharing -Bison Rendang (5/5) classic Malaysia dish done right but with a twist with the protein ! Honestly such an authentic but elevated restaurant in Waterloo! Lucky to have a unique gem like this.

I got the pear ginger cocktail which was refreshing and pretty good size - lasted throughout our meal. We got 4 appetizers for two of us to share: sushi tacos, fried chicken, lobster shumai and beef bao. Sushi tacos were my favorite for sure. I love ahi tuna and the texture and spice were perfection. The flavor of the KFC Fried chicken was really tasty as well. We got a little messy and had to wash our hands several times, but overall great experience. Service was excellent. Ambiance was nice. We'll definitely be back to try more things.

It's not often that we find East Asian food in this area, so we had high hopes considering the reviews. Although our food tasted and looked great, the prices seemed a bit too high for the portion size and ingredients. I could see these prices at a fine dining establishment, but the ambiance felt more of a typical local bar/restaurant than fine dining. Perhaps we're too used to the plethora of East Asian food options in the GTA. I will say that the use of Cumbrae's meat stood out in the poutine (super tender!), as well as the rich broth in the shumai.

The menu leans Korean fusion and nothing feels forced or overdone. I tried them during Winterlicious and it was such a good intro to what they do. Standouts for me: Braised short rib was unreal. Super tender, rich, and easily the best dish of the night K Pasta was so unique. Packed with flavour and not something you come across often Kalbi striploin burger was juicy, flavourful, and done right Cocktails were strong and easy to sip. They disappeared way too fast, which says a lot. Overall, great execution, a menu that stands out, and a space that feels sexy but still cozy. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

The tuna and salmon tasted very fresh, and the sweet-spicy Korean-style sauce made the whole dish feel bright, refreshing, and really appetizing. I also loved the potato dumplings.. crisp on the outside, but soft and pleasantly chewy inside, with a very smooth texture. The arugula salad was a great complement and added a nice fresh balance to the meal. The real standout for me, though, was the kalbi. It was incredibly tender and full of rich flavor. It almost melted in the mouth, with that satisfying buttery, savory richness that meat lovers would definitely appreciate. The cocktails were also fun and well done. I tried a few, and all of them were enjoyable. Some even had a smoky presentation, which made the experience feel a little more special. The service was another strong point. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made the dinner feel smooth from start to finish. Everything came out at a comfortable pace, and the overall hospitality really added to the experience. As for the ambience, it felt stylish, intimate, and a little moody in a good way. The lighting and presentation gave the dinner a polished feel, but it was still relaxed enough to enjoy comfortably. It's the kind of place that works well for a casual date night, drinks with friends, or simply a nice evening out.

And I think that is mostly due to the location. However, twice now my husband and I have taken the time to come up with an order, after googling the hours to see if they're open. We arrive and they're closed. This has happened twice now. Once in the middle of the week on a Weds. and the other on what should be a busy Saturday evening at supper time. I would imagine that should be one of the busiest days of the week for them. however they choose random days to close their doors and lock up. And Their hours listed on Google do not reflect hours that they're actually open. So Even if you do your homework before making the 20min drive.....they can still end up being closed when you arrive. Extremely Frustrating.

Not in my opinion...especially coming from SE Asian roots and having travelled in Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand. Majority of the dishes here seemed more of a fusion of different cultures rather than purely Indonesian. The flavours didn't quite hit the mark and spice levels were near non-existent. Seeing the fellow diners...I can see that the flavours must've been westernized. And for this style of more 'comfort/rustic' style dishes, the main dishes were quite expensive at ~$45+ each. Drinks were mild in flavour, but at least not too sweet! This was a fun try, especially if you're not one for spicy food. CASH & DEBIT ONLY. We tried the: -gado gado (Indonesian potato salad) -angus beef tandoori (with taro mash) -duck curry with crispy noodles -mango lassi -thai iced tea (more like condensed milk tea, barely had the Thai tea flavour) -specialty mojito
