    I liked Poong Moon, but not so much for my family, as they found the jjajangmyeon lacked some flavours compared to other restaurants (perhaps the umami kicks), even though it came with a nice slice of grilled pork belly on top. The yuringi was good, although we would like them more as cutlet slices (a whole cutlet fried and cut after being fried) than how they were served as thigh nuggets. It seems that freshly cut slices would soak up the sauces better that way. Overall, I don't think the food was bad at all, but it's just that sunny Dragon, 5 minutes' drive away, set the bar too high. The vibe was very nice, doe--very youth-friendly (as in friendly for younger crowds in their mid 20s to come after work, get tipsy, and eat food)

    This spot has been on my bookmarked list for a while! I love noodles so I had to go and it didn't disappoint. They specialize in Chinese-Korean fusion dishes. We ordered the classics like champong and black bean noodle and then added the oriental fried chicken dish for the group of 3 of us. The unique thing about this place is that they have a variety of champong flavours from creamy to spicy. Though my fav is still the black bean noodle. They also have the oriental fried chicken, which is also good but be careful with the peppers and if you accidentally chew the seed it could be a bit much, especially if you're not too tolerant of spicy food. However my friends who can handle the spice loves the spicy chicken the most.

    Amazing Chinese Korean dishes, and noodles. The noodles are qq and a variety of soup base / flavours. They also have pork hock rice, and fried pork if you don't enjoy noodles.

    Tried a few items as a group and everyone loved every dish. The creamy noodle was probably the #1 favourite item out of our group. Prices are fair, portions large.not much seating or seating for large groups I liked how the shrimp were super crunchy (hard crunchy) but some of my friends didn't like that. It was too hard/crunchy that it hurt their mouth. Can't wait to go back here and definitely reccomend it. Also like that it has its own parking lot in front. But it is shared and not many spots, so come early!

    Pretty busy for Monday dinner. That is a good sign. Ordered Black bean saucenoodle with pork belly ( $10.99(w/tax) ) which was pretty ordinary, nothing special for jajangmyun. I was hoping to get more wok hey, torched, smoky flavour but I did not get any of that flavour note.,However still not bad for $10.99. Broth for Seafood White Jjamppong($14.99) was fantastic. Was very nice to see generous amount of mini octopus, shrimp, mussles, etc. Broth tasted like between Korean Jjamppong & Japanese Ramen broth but pretty clear broth rather than being cloudy. Huge portion of Yuringi($17.99). This could have been great food to go with beer. We were seated with a table for 2. Once next table left, our wait staff combined 2 small table to make more room for us which was a very attentive service. There were some drunk Korean men patrons who were making loud noise. Other than that very nice decor and atmosphere to dine and have some drinks.

    We grabbed their mapo tofu before for takeaway, it was a bit sweet as it is the Korean version. But this time, we did dine in and had their jjamppong with both the meat and seafood, the tangsuyuk, and the cucumber salad. The service was a bit slow (I think there was only one person) and we were sat at the back so it was a bit harder to get their attention. It took a bit to take our orders, then the food came and the portions are huge. The tangsuyuk was very tasty and had a good ratio of meat. I haven't tried meat in jjamppong before but this one is full of flavour. The broth had a nice kick to it and it wasn't too spicy. I'd probably try the cream one and jjajang next.

    The noodles are great but the potion sizing could be bigger. Sauce is good and I got takeout !

    Poong Moon is a late night spot that's great for bringing friends, and if you're looking to have some drinks. There aren't many spots at the plaza for parking, but you're able to park your car by the streets at the neighborhood beside (after 5pm on weekdays). I was also thrilled to see they were projecting anime on the wall, and also have a cool manga wallpaper inside the bathrooms. We opted to try their signature Black Bean Sauce noodles, as well as their Beef Champong which you can substitute for rice option instead of noodles. The food took alittle long, around 15 mins to come, but it was definitely worth the wait. The black bean noodles were delicious, and definitely very generous on the sauce - I couldn't stop slurping it down! I was also surprised with the Champong. The soup was very tasty & flavourful, with lots of beef inside, but also surprised to see a good amount of seafood as well. There's also some glass noodles inside, and the texture was just right - not too chewy, but soft enough! We definitely will come back again to try their other Champong and dishes :) IG: Ayeween

    Well, recommended by friends, so we all tried the black bean sauce noodle (Jajangmyeon), and you know what, we all loved it! Mine was spicy, which they took it seriously, but not to the extend of that Korean spicy chicken ramen (Buldak), so nothing to be worried about Flavour-wise, I really like it, a bit of spice, a bit of sweetness, bon appetite And the texture of noodle was just right, tender enough but not soggy. Loved it! I really would recommend this place if you are a Jajangmyeon lover, try it and you will love it, trust me!

    Hidden gem near Steels and Yonge Minimal menu items to choose from, but if you looking for a place to drink, fried snacks, and a handful of main noodle dish. this is the place for you. Both seafood noodles and black bean sauce noodles were 5/5 didn't really have high expectations since it felt more like a bar restaurant than a food restaurant. But it ended up giving us SURPRISING US. - great example of never judge a book by its cover Oh my god! The fired chicken was also FLAMES 1. It was SOOOO GOOOD! 2. CRIPSY ON THE OUTSIDE, JUICEY IN THE INSIDE 3. The sauce was the perfect balance between soury spicy and saltiness. THE BEST SNACK WHEN DRINKING SOME COLD BEER highly recommend location for some chill time with friends Check out my TikTok for some video action

    3.5 almost a 4! Poong Moon is located in the second level and they have a few spots for parking in front, if not, there is free street parking on Patricia Ave after 6pm mon-fri. Once you enter the restaurant the bathrooms are to your right and there are seats near the front windows or in the back. They were playing a Korean drama on a projector against this wall in the middle of the place :) Their menu is not super big but there are quite a bit of choices. We ended up getting the jajangmyun (black bean noodles), beef champong (has beef slices and seafood), and the cream champong along with a tang su yuk (meat dish). All of the noodle dishes are the same noodle base but you can request for rice noodle or rice instead. Food came out fairly quick. Overall the noodles were decent. I liked the thickness but would have preferred if they were cooked slightly less. Just borderline in the about to be mushy category. The portions were really big and each bowl was very flavourful. I would not say they were too spicy. The seafood comprises of squid rings, mussels, some clams, and shrimp. The beef and the cream one were a little salty for my taste but still decent. The staff were friendly and we got constant water refills.

    First time trying champong! Due to supplier issues, they did not have any of the red champong. I got the seafood white champong which had very flavorful broth and of course seafood including really small oysters, squid, and a good amount of shrimp. The broth was flavourful and the noodles were slightly chewy which I enjoyed. There was an abundance of nappa cabbage (I believe) and a lot of onions. Even though I'm not a huge fan of onions, they had a carmelized/charred apperance and taste so it definitely made the dish taste better. I did want to try their spicy red champong but there were some jalapenos in mine so that added a nice kick. My friend got the cream champong and she liked it as well but did say the broth was a bit too heavy for her liking. I also got the jajangmyeon to go for my sister and she enjoyed it. Overall great service and food and clean washrooms. Would return!

    Small restaurant on the second floor, with about 6 parking spots. Didn't see accessibility option. There's a section upfront and another in the back, but it can fill up quick during peak hours. Menu is pretty small, so if you're indecisive, this would be a good spot. They offer a selection of champong noodles in different soups with different toppings. We got a cream champong with seafood, and a plate of tang su yuk for that extra meat to go around. Flavours are alright. The soup was quite creamy, and you get a variety of seafood.

Got the original chicken karaage boneless - I appreciate that it comes with 3 dipping sauces so you can try various flavours and not just stick with 1 flavour like at normal fried chicken restaurants. If you're not in the mood for Katsu, there's other itemskke karaage, baked chicken , rice cakes, or udon. They also serve pizza from Pizza Maru which operates from the same premise. However, the menu was hard to read. The service wasn't super friendly - I almost felt like they were hoping we didn't dine in so they can focus on take out orders. We were the only 2 people that were waiting for their dine in orders and the food felt like it came out slow. The ambiance was quiet. Lots of empty seats. Perhaps it was the day we went, but even if the restaurant isn't busy the atmosphere wasn't as welcoming.

Lots of seating is available, including comfortable 4-6 person booths. The only downside is that parking right on Yonge is very limited. The menu has expanded beyond katsu to include pizzas, wings, udon, and tteokbokki. The katsu was excellent with its light, crisp batter, and the special set came with a great variety of sides plus both rice and a small bowl of udon. The pizza and wings were also fantastic--we ordered the half-and-half pizza with the signature shrimbul (highly recommend if you like a little heat) and Korean bulgogi. The wings were flavorful and delicious as well. Service was decent, though we docked half a star because some drinks on the menu weren't available (only 2 out of the 5 beers listed). That said, we still had a great experience overall and will definitely be back!

Just $6.99 for a plate of peanuts! The mains were shared. Deep Fried Spicy Chilly Chicken ($21.99) which consists basically of chicken knuckles with very little meat. The spice was delicious but it includes whole red chili's, which were a little over the top for hotness. Second was the Skewer Platter ($24.99). It was chicken knuckles, beef, pork. Good but lacked any real quantity of protein & was disappointing. Finally the last was the Yang Zhou Fried Rice ($15.99). This was the best of the dishes & the only one we fully finished. Service was good & fast but there was a mild language barrier. The menu itself was only available online so we missed some subtitles of said menu. We were the ONLY customers in the restaurant when we arrived. This is more traditional Korean Food & was definitely NOT to our liking. Mostly it came down to what we thought vs what we got. NOT a do over for me!

    I visited Baili expecting to have fusion food, but the menu may have changed because what I got…read moreseemed to be Chinese food, which reminds me of spicy flavours from Sichuan though maybe it isn't exactly that type of cuisine (spicy and numbing peppercorns, if you're into it). We ordered the spicy beef, assorted skewers, corn ribs, and finished off with a salted egg tiramisu. The menu seems kind of inconsistent and unfinished from when we went a few weeks back. Even ordering some menu items was a challenge, as it was only in Chinese, and we had to use Google Translate to understand what they were. It definitely did not feel like a full fusion restaurant, but more like a Chinese restaurant with a few items that were a bit more Westernized, like the corn ribs and a couple of dessert options. There was a ceviche option (we didn't order it), but it was really just sashimi cut into chunks, not the delicate, thinly sliced ceviche some might expect. However, the main thing that really drew me in was the salted egg tiramisu! It's a good tiramisu, don't get me wrong. However, I hardly tasted the salted egg component, it very well could have been a regular tiramisu, as the salted egg flavour was really subtle that I was questioning whether there was salted egg in there. We eventually did find the salted egg layer. The assorted skewers and corn ribs were tasty and I would recommend. The Hunan spicy beef had good flavour and also recommended by the waiter but was a bit too intense. Keep in mind, if you don't like coriander or think it tastes like soap, there is a ton stir fried in. It wasn't really to our taste preference in terms of spice level because there were a ton of numbing peppercorns in it, it was like eating a landmine trying to dodge them. We brought it home, and I picked out the zillion peppercorns and stir-fried the beef with some eggplant and a touch of sweetness and it worked so well. The menu left me a bit confused and unsure how I feel about this restaurant overall, as there wasn't one signature dish that made me feel like I had to revisit for it and of course getting burned with the peppercorns wasn't the best either especially when we mention less spicy but we should've specified less numbing (we didn't know it would be numbing though).

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.

Great service as well - servers are always around to get you what you need. Definitely worth checking out for sure!

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!
