The fried chicken has a lot of crispy coating and very little chicken inside.

If you want to try out halal Korean food do visit once but it's not worth visiting again and again.

Damda arrived preceded by considerable social media fanfare, the kind of buzz that primes…read moreexpectations for something transcendent. The reality, on this visit, proved more measured. This Koreatown fixture trades in the classics of the Korean table: a well stocked banchan spread, comforting soups, and a seafood pancake that regulars swear by. Each dish arrived competently prepared, yet none reached the height that the online chatter had promised. Service moved at an even, unhurried pace, attentive without being showy, though the room fills quickly and a short wait is not uncommon on busier evenings. The booths and tables offer a comfortable, low key setting suited to a casual gathering rather than a special occasion. What Damda delivers, ultimately, is reliability rather than revelation: a solid, unpretentious rendition of Korean comfort food that will satisfy an appetite without lingering long in the memory. Worth a visit for the classics, but temper the expectations set by its online reputation, and you will likely leave content, if not enraptured.

I was excited to try this restaurant as I heard good reviews. It was a cold and rainy day so we…read morewere looking for a comforting spot for some soup for the soul. The restaurant is small but has decent seating and the staff were friendly and seated us promptly with some tea. Their service was quick and efficient. After coming back from South Korea, I fell in love with a dish called dweji gukbap so I was thrilled to see it on the menu, and had to order it. Not a lot of korean restaurants in Toronto offer this pork soup dish. My husband ordered the soondubu as well and both dishes came with 6 side dishes and some purple rice. The side dishes were nothing special - your typical kimchi, bean sprouts, seaweed, fishcakes and radish. A side dish I don't normally see was the macaroni salad. Both dishes came in a stone bowl to maintain a good piping hot temperature of the soup. They also provided me with some seasoning salt to adjust the broth saltiness to my liking. My pork soup was very comforting and tasty! Not as good compared to the one we had in Busan, South Korea but it still hit the spot on a rainy day. I do wish the pork slices were bigger and felt like they gave majority of the scraps into my bowl. The slices were very small, unless that is how it's served at this restaurant. I've never had this dish with small pieces of pork, it was always a good bite size so I was disappointed. My husband's soondubu was delicious and flavourful. You can never go wrong with this dish! It was filled with seafood and pairs perfectly with the purple rice. The pricing is decent and we may come back again to try other dishes from the menu.

My mother just wished there was more shrimp in the Jungol. Service is as expected for a "traditional" Korean restaurant which means not necessarily warm but responsive.

Beef Bulgogi Heaven - Well Worth It!…read more Had the beef bulgogi on a sizzling plate - tender, flavorful, and served piping hot.

When you order the beef bowl, you get so much more than you pay for. The first time I ordered this, I wasn't fully aware of everything that would be included in the bowl.

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! Limited to no seating, more of a grab and go type setting.

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!

Slice pork broth soup lightly salted and comes with 2 dips (mini sauce pot) on aside, personal preference would be gochujiang mix on the right which gives you a punch of spice. It's hard to find good Korean restaurant in Markham/scarborough. This is definitely a hidden gem, will definitely come back with the boys.

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.

I knew that Lisa and Rose went to a Korean restaurant in Toronto and people were surprised and excited about that. I realized Huh Ga Ne was exactly the restaurant they came to when I was standing in front of it, because there's a poster about that news on the wall. All the scattered dots I learned during my doom scrolling started forming a line in my head. It's a Korean BBQ restaurant. To be honest, I have never liked Korean BBQ. I feel it's too greasy, the flavor is too strong, and they always put too many tables in the store and make the space very uncomfortable. This one is different. It's spacious. It has a range hood just above your head, above the table, so the smoke won't attack your clothes too much . Their waitresses will help you roast the food and prepare dishes to catch the oil that drips off the BBQ plate. We ordered pork intestines, fried bean noodles, and chicken soup. All of them were nice. I feel their food is a bit salty, but it's perfect as a night snack and for having beer or Soju (if you're a tough guy or woman) with friends. Unfortunately, I could not have a drink that night because my son was also with us and I needed to drive home. I promise I'll order alcohol next time we come here.
