When I picked up the order, I knew I didn't ask for utensils, so I requested for them in person. The lady took the extra mile by pulling the receipt in my face to prove that I didn't ask for any in my order. When I reached out to the store regarding this, they didn't read my message and went back to blaming me again! They refused to offer any further assistance in remedying the issue.

It's open late and available on delivery platforms like UberEats, DoorDash and SkipTheDishes. Closed Mondays. Their banchans are pretty tasty. They give you 4 plates of banchan like kimchi, namul sprouts, sweet braised potato and stir fried fishcake. The staff here are very attentive to customers. I decided to try their seafood soon du bu seafood soft tofu soup* #S2 which came with a variety of seafood like mussels, squid, shrimp, tofu and zucchini vegetables. It was served bubbling hot and was very delicious. Ordered their original fried chicken #C1 which came on a platter topped with crispy outside yet inside it was juicy chicken. Their fried chicken would be a fitting accompaniment to a nice cold drink, pop, beer or soju! Other diners ordered #N1 ja jang myun Korean style black bean sauce served with noodles, #F7 supreme donkatsu deep fried pork cutlet with supreme sauce, #F3 deep fried squid rings, #M2 bulgogi stir fried marinated soft beef, and #F1 deep fried dumplings.

This place is a takeout and delivery of traditional Korean food. There is no dine in option and I recommend ordering ahead of time to make the transaction seamless. We ordered the family meal with the 2+2 option we chose the tofu soup, beef japchae, bulgogi and fried chicken. When we got it home we definitely did not expect as much food as we got. Being a family of four to have leftovers is rare but this is enough for dinner and lunch for everyone the next day. They included 4 bowls of rice, and 5 side dishes. We ordered a separate order of kimchi for $12.99 a kilo. Everything was delicious from the fried chicken it was seasoned just right and the right mix of spicy and sweet. The bulgogi was bang on and made fresh. The tofu soup is purposely not salted heavily for those to add if they want extra but the seafood tofu soup was delicious and not overly spicy. The japchae was made fresh with veggies and the glass noodles. All her food was just as good as I remembered it to be. So excited that I finally have a good Korean food option close to home. Definitely will be my go to now that I know it is there. None of her dishes disappoint and portions are awesome. Best $64 spent.

Crispy gyoza, fried greens, japche, and kimchi were all so generously placed into my bowl! So much flavor, so many textures! Highly recommend. Price cant be beat for the portion size!

100% Korean A Must-Try Spot for Korean Food Lovers…read more 100% Korean is definitely a staple in my books. The food is always consistent, the prices are more affordable than most other Korean restaurants, and the portions are huge. One thing I really appreciate is that every meal comes with 3 banchan of your choice and the lady always loads them up generously. My goto dish is their gamjatang flavorful, hearty, and comforting every single time. Whether you're craving a satisfying meal or just love authentic Korean flavors, this place won't disappoint. Highly recommend for anyone who loves Korean food!

Service 10/10 - today they had 3-4 waiters/waitresses working so there was always somebody coming in to check if things needed refills. Our waiter (sorry the name is escaping me.) was a newer parttime worker but was providing us 10 out of 10 service!! Food - 10/10 we got alot more sides than normal today for our friends to try. The tteokbokki was nice and had a deep flavor. Not too spicy and not too sweet. Rice balls was nice and soaked up the tteokbokki sauce. This time we got the half half with spicy bossam and Bbq jokbal. They were both really good flavors. The store had kpop playing at a moderate volume. But we had no issues chating away while sipping on soju. Definitely recommend!

Hanyang Jokbal has always been consistently good, and it's why we always come back. The portion of food is always plenty, the taste is unmatched and the sides are delicious. While the food took some time it was understandable as it was very busy. The waiter was very apologetic about the wait. In terms of the interior, it's just one more thing that makes this place such a good dining option. The interior makes you feel like you're not in Toronto. While it does get quite loud, I think it just shows how much people are enjoying the food and the vibe. Hanyang Jokbal is definitely a must!

The broth wasn't very salty but still flavourful and once you let the peppers steep into the broth, they add a lovely spicy kick. Another substantial dish is the steamed pork bo saam ($49.99 for large) where slices of pork belly are kept warm on a hot plate. Diners tuck these soft meat slices into lettuce, Napa cabbage, and turnip with a smear of the savoury bean sauce for a protein packed bite. Our table was split about the haemui pa jeon ($28.99). The size of a medium pizza, it's made for a group. Personally, I found it way too thick and didn't contain enough ingredients to balance out the doughiness of the Korean style pancake. Conversely, my relatives preferred the heft as it contrasted the crispy exterior and soft interior. I guess it depends if you're a thin versus pan crust type of pizza lover. I'm firmly in the Neapolitan camp. I thoroughly enjoyed the crust that develops on the bottom of yachae dolsot bibimbap ($18.99). And the hot stone rice bowl contained a good combination of ingredients to ensure there was plenty of vegetables and beef to go around. De Chou's LA kalbi ($34.99) was rather neutral with very little sauce, so you mostly taste the beef. I personally would have preferred more sauce to help caramelize onto the beef ribs, but the older members of the family appreciated the plainness and liked that it was tender. This is a long review for the rest go to Gastro World.

(3/5) De Chou Korean Restaurant - Lunch Review…read more We stopped by De Chou Korean Restaurant for lunch today since we happened to be nearby. The sign said it opens at 11:30 a.m., and true to their word, the doors opened exactly on time. The restaurant itself is quite large and impressively clean -- that was my first good impression. We originally went in because of the sign outside advertising Korean ginseng chicken soup, but when we asked the server, he told us it's no longer on the menu. A bit disappointing, especially since my wife wasn't feeling well and I thought that soup would've been perfect for her. We ordered two Bulgogi Dolsot Bibimbaps ($21.99 each). The portion was decent, but the flavor was a bit bland and not salty enough for our taste -- overall I'd give it a 6/10. We also tried the Japchae ($13.99). Unfortunately, it was too greasy, a bit slimy, and overcooked -- about a 4/10 for me. They served five small side dishes, which were just average (5/10), and a small cup of noodle soup that was lukewarm and slightly sweet -- not to my liking, as I prefer savory over sweet in Korean food. The total came to $65.51 before tip, and we left a standard 15%. To be fair, by the time we finished lunch, there were quite a few tables filled, so maybe other dishes are better. But based on what we ordered today, the food didn't live up to the price. Would I go again? Probably not.

This is a take-out only restaurant. I believe it's run by a older Asian couple and they're both…read morevery kind. They are located on Hwy 7 in a small lot with four parking spots at the front. We ordered the bossam, seafood pancake, and budae jeongol and the bill came to ~$100. The bossam was quite a large portion and the flavour was quite delicious. Our favourite item was the seafood pancake. We devoured that and if given a choice to only order one dish, I would definitely recommend the seafood pancake. The budae jeongol (as a solo dish) could easily feed two people. They pack the soup in two large circular soup-like takeout containers and the ingredients in a square container - same as the ones that the bossam and seafood pancake came in. There were plenty of tteokbokki, sausages, cabbage, and ramen noodles. We put the dish together in a wok and kept it heated on a portable induction cooktop. They gave four containers of banchan: fish cakes, japchae, radish kimchi, and mandu. My only complaint about this experience (4.5/5) was their inaccurate waiting time. I called in around 5 PM on a Wednesday to place my order and they quoted that the order would take around 20 to 25 minutes. I showed up ~30 mins after I called and they didn't have the food ready until 5:50/5:55 PM. I understand that they're busy, but I would have appreciated a more accurate wait time.

My go to take out Korean food spot!…read more This spot is on Highway 7 between Kennedy and Warden. It's a take out spot only and has no tables for dine in. I usually call in advance to order and pick up. Things that I love the most: Pork bone soup 5/5 - So hearty and tasty. On the spicier side but a must get! I usually get their hot pot size of pork bone soup to share with others. It comes with lots of pork bones and a huge piece of potato. Bossom 5/5 - I love their bossom here. The only complain is that their bossom comes with lettuce rather than napa cabbage. Still super delicious though. Banchans 5/5 - Their kimchi is the best banchan they have. I often times also buy just their kimchi to take home as it's very garlicky, fresh and delicious. Spicy pork rice 3.5/5 - A good rice option, but I still prefer their soup better. Jajangmein 3.5/5 - Another one of those dishes that I can skip. Only get it so that we can have a variety saucey noodle dish. I can't recommend this spot enough. Make sure to get their kimchi! But also make sure to check your order before leaving. One time I was there, there was a flustered teenager working the front of house. Because I'm a regular there, I touched my order he handed to me and noticed there was no hot soup burning my hand while holding the take out bag. When I brought this up, the chef came out and also mentioned that he had forgotten to pack my two containers of soup. Thank goodness I checked. Unfortunately when I got home, I noticed that he also forgot to pack my two white rice that comes with my soup. So just make sure to double and triple check before leaving when you get your take out! Other than that, it's a solid 5/5 for me!

Tonkatsu was okay, a bit in the dry side. It came with small side of rice and cabbage salad, along with some danmuji. Beef dumplings were nothing to write home about. The Mapo gamjatang tofu was underwhelming. The meat was super tender and plentiful, tofu is soft, but the overall flavour was lacking and even though it stated on the menu it was spicy, had no spice. They gave us some banchan to start, I really loved their kimchi, but everything else was just okay. Server was really nice, but she was talking on her earbuds the whole time.

The decor is from the previous store I think called maki momo? The dine in is counter seating. The taste is definitely not your typical Korean soup spices but the pork bone was definitely fall off the bone and tender which some Korean places serve it very dry. The spicy fish and veggie soup was also different as the fish used I believe it's snakehead where other places usually have that thick cut white fish which is meh. So I really enjoyed it. Definitely don't set the expectation as authentic Korean dishes for these two dishes in terms of taste because it's quite different. The pork bone soup had a lot of garlic in it but something about the soup base gave me sukiyaki flavours. The fish soup was slightly different as well but also can't narrow down what it reminds me off but that one gave some Chinese spin to it. Although different I'd say it's unique and good in their own way, I'd go back for their grilled meat options next time. For service there is a girl who takes your order and also the one that brings you food and periodically comes by to check on you. Very friendly. Lastly, you can purchase a membership for a year for $10 and it's basically half price on their prices. -Totally worth it.
