Went for Korean while we were in town, settling on trying Jung Korean Restaurant. It's next door to…read moreKerala South Indian. We dropped in on a Monday (1:00pm) for lunch. Service was good; use the call button to ask for things. It was cold inside with the AC blasting. Menu consists of appetizers, BBQ meat, soups, rice dishes, shareables, noodles, hot pots and stir fry's. They have BBQ combos for two to four people. - Banchan - two types of kimchi, pickled daikon, seaweed salad and sliced onions. All tasty. - 2x Rice ($3.00 each) - would have been good with one additional bowl. - BBQ combo set ($94.00) - good enough to share between four. Best of the meats was easily the LA galbi. The rib finger wasn't the freshest. Corn cheese was a good appetizer; more cheese than corn. Sukuh soondubu jigae was tasty but not much seafood or sliced beef. - Bibim-naengmyun ($17.00) - refreshing but standard fare. Solid KBBQ eats at Jung. Would come back again.

Absolutely! It was worth it! We spent around 150 dollars for two people, plus an additional 17…read moredollars for Jinro. We ordered the Combo Premium Beef Combo for 2, which costs 119 dollars, and it included everything you see in my photos and posts. The only item not part of the Combo is the A9 rice cake sausages. Everything else you see in those pictures is included in the Combo for just 119 dollars! When you order this combo, you can choose two side dishes from a variety of options. We went with the S1 Spicy beef soup and ojing eo bokkeum. There are other soup choices available, like Spicy Seafood soup, spicy tofu soup, spicy veggies soup, and more. The combo also includes two servings of steamed rice. You can choose one more dish along with the soups. We opted for ojing eo bokkeum, but you can also choose from options like soya garlic chicken bits, spicy chicken bits, and more. A9 is a must-try! It's rice cakes and sausages with a Korean Sweet and Spicy Sauce. $13 for 2 Service a bit slow, seems very busy restaurant but only 4 waitress. Line up and line up. Oh, environment was fine

Went to Hanjan South with the family. It was quite busy but it was expected for a Sunday evening…read more The food was good as always but we found that service a bit off - we waited for one last chair which took 3 times of asking before it was provided. We've also almost ate all the meat before rice was provided. Regardless, the food was still good. Ordered fried chicken, spicy pork belly, corn cheese and more and they all tasted great. Ambiance was same as usual. Clean and same with the washrooms

My friend and I came here for dinner before going to a show. I was looking at restaurants along our…read moreroute and Hanjan seemed like a great option. We dined on a Friday around 6pm. The space inside was nice and much bigger than it looked outside. There were a few diners when we got there, but still plenty of seating. We were seated, given the menus, and water (including a jug for the table, which I appreciated). The server told us that when we're ready to order to press the button on the side of the table. I love when restaurants do that. I ordered the Hanip to drink, which is a seasonal tea beverage, a non alcoholic type cocktail. I got the Japchae, which is a bowl of Japchae (glass noodles), beef bulgogi, spinach, carrots, onions with a shitake soy dressing. My friend got a coke and the Donkas, a breaded pork cutlet with a cabbage slaw. It also came with ketchup and bbq sauce on the side. Our food came out very fast; I don't think we waited more than 8 minutes, but our drinks hadn't arrived and the server said they'd be on the way. With our meals they brought out a small side of vegetables that included kimchi, bean spouts, radish (may have been daikon) with this delicious sauce, and mashed potatoes, plus a side of steamed rice. I'm not sure if the veggies and rice were for my meal or my friend's or for the table, but we both enjoyed it. I really liked the radish dish. Our meals were also delicious. My friend's pork cutlet was massive and she said it was really good. I loved the Japchae, it was savoury and comforting. I had been debating about ordering one of the full vegetable dishes like the eggplant or cucumber salad, but the serving sizes are decent and I wasn't hungry. The downside was they forgot about our drinks. I kept waiting and finally partway through our meal I pressed the button and asked about our drinks, and they had completely forgotten. The server (a different one from before) apologized. My friend's coke came out right after that and my drink took a few minutes to make. I do understand things get missed (I've worked in restaurants before), but it also wasn't very busy. So I can't give Hanjan 5-stars because of this but it was still a really meal. Both my friend and I said we'd go back again.

Just two words: FREAKING AWESOME!…read moreI love Korean food and I have gone to many Korean restaurants. One of my friends who is Korean, recommended this place so we decided to give it a shot. As we entered we noticed a very well designed restaurant with cozy atmosphere! The staff were very nice and friendly which made the experience even better. The food: I have never seen a quality like this! Everything was high quality and delicious! We did not have any leftovers!!! When we were going to leave, they gave us some sort of a small drink that I have no idea what it was but it was very refreshing and delicious! They met all of my expectations from a good restaurant and don't be surprised if you see I become a regular here! I highly recommend this place! :)

Got the strawberry Soju. I loved it, friend did not. Tried the Baekjeong Combo for 2. Steamed egg was sooooo cool. Tasted pretty bland but presentation was 12/10. Stone/container keeps it hot for quite a while too! Tried the only soup that did not say spicy. 10/10 was good. Rice was good. Salad was good - I liked the dressing. Pickled ?daikon was 10/10 so great for cutting through all the meat flavor. Bean sprouts were just okay. Friend liked the sauerkraut but I did not. Broccoli was very nice to grill. Marinated raw Onion was good (better slightly warmed on the grill). Marinated pork was my favorite. Pork belly was good. The super thinly sliced was one was my least favorite. Hard to cook and shrivels up too much. The super thick cuts I also did not like as I found it too chewy but honestly that could just be my cooking skills. Grill was swapped out 3 times during our 1.5hr experience. Ate 100% of everything But only 50% of the egg, and 10% of the bean sprouts (2 very hungry people). Overall what a fun experience. But I like Gyu-Kaku more (Better price for same experience and I like the marinated cheap meats better than the expensive cuts).

I've always wanted to go to Hanjan but never had the time to visit for months. Now the stars had…read morefinally aligned and we came here right after an Oiler's watchparty. We arrived right before other people filled up the place so it was a little busy. I'm surprised at how much space and seating they have. At first I just saw 4 person tables but they led us to the other area where they had large tables for bigger parties. We had 9 people in our party and they seated us immediately. My boyfriend and I split the Bulgogi Fries and the Padak (Soy Garlic) Korean Fried Chicken. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. After one bite of the Bulgogi Fries, it was an immediate 10/10. The fries were crispy and had the perfect golden crisp + soft inside ratio. And don't even get me started with the sauce on top. The white sauce was light, and had the perfect combination of slightly sweet and savory. It was a wonderful aioli. And the veggies added were so good. The tomatoes and scallions added a nice freshness and slight acidity to the overall dish. Lastly the bulgogi was just *chef's kiss*. I don't really know how else to explain it other than the Bulgogi Fries were a well-balanced dish. We were scooping every single missed vegetable in the sauce after we demolished the fries. The Padak (Soy Garlic) fried chicken was so tasty. Whenever I get wings, my go-to is pretty much anything soy garlic, or anything included garlic. The fried chicken skin was the best part. Great texture, crunchy, crispy, wonderful flavor. It was a great blend of savory, umami, and garlic. And the green onions on top was a great addition. Portion size for both things we ordered was perfect for the two of us. Also, don't even get me started on the banchans. Great kimchi, radish kimchi was so refreshing, and that mashed potato side? Terrific. We asked for more banchan when we were done. Lastly, we came back the very next day to try the desserts. At first, I wanted to pick one dessert to share between me and my boyfriend but it was so difficult to choose one. So we got both lol. We ordered the Injeolmie Waffle, Honey Butter Bread, and tried some of my cousin's Strawberry Bingsu. The Injeolmi Waffle itself was delicious, sweet but not too sweet. The ice cream added that sweetness and the almonds on top were nice. And the Honey Butter Bread? Wow. The milk bread and the fresh whipped cream were fluffy, light, and not too sweet. I would go back again in a heartbeat. If I was in the neighborhood, I would be a regular. And when I give a place 5 stars, 5 stars to me means: take my money and I might dangerously spend too much of my paycheck here. Which is what I did, but no regrets. I will not stop talking about this place. 10's all across the board for me! Love you Hanjan.

So, again, I should have read my last review and this place was still cold, one year later. TURN UP…read moreYOUR HEAT! Me and my friends were freezing. That is why it lost a star. Otherwise it is a large restaurant, pretty non descript in nature but clean and orderly. I like that after you are seated, and you get your menus you ring a doorbell at your table when you are ready. I like this. The servers are not running around ragged. Great menu - lots of selections. We ordered a lot of different items - Gamja Tang - Spicy, hearty pork bone soup with potatoes, green onions, hot peppers, and ground sesame seeds. Galbi - Beef short ribs soaked in a sweet soy marinade and grilled. Cheese Buldak - Korean Fire Chicken, tender chicken coated in a spicy gochujang sauce with rice cakes, potatoes, and mozzarella cheese melted on top, and soy garlic fried chicken. It also came with some steamed rice and banchan which is small appetizers of pickeled vegs. Everything was delicous but my favourite was the gamja tang. Delicous! Despite our freezing we also splurged on the mango bingsu - shaved ice dessert topped with fresh mangoes, ice cream, and condensed milk. Delicous but we walked out like popsicles. I will have to come back in summer :)

The pork in the soup is one of the best I've had from all the Gam Ja Tangs in Edmonton - nice cuts, good flavour, and perfect cookedness. The vegetables have been really fresh and cooked well. One thing to note is that the soup isn't very spicy. Overall, I'd give them 8.8/10

This is definitely one of the hidden gems of the south side. The shop is located between two other…read moredining establishments and if you weren't looking carefully you'd probably miss it. It's definitely a cozy spot better equipped to serve smaller groups than larger parties. The menu is pretty straightforward with just enough variety so that everyone would probably find something they'd be interested in. I ordered a Bulgogi (stir-fried marinated beef) that came with rice and some banchan, then I also got a separate appetizer of Mandu (fried chicken dumplings). All the food was as expected and I can't really complain about anything. The bulgogi was cooked to perfection, the mandu was crispy and soft as a fried dumpling should be. The portions are large and is just the right amount for a meal if you eat like me, or a meal and some leftovers if you eat less. I wasn't in a rush and enjoyed my meal, they checked how I was doing a few times but never felt pushy. Super friendly and very prompt service. I'd try some other things next time I went. Go with a small group of 4 and try a few different dishes that you can share is my advice.

The food is well-cooked with good ingredients and very flavorful. If you want more spice, not a problem - they can make it as spicy as you want, or even not spicy at all.

Having a happy and welcoming environment is essential for customers, and they definitely deliver on that.
