Beef Bulgogi Heaven - Well Worth It! Had the beef bulgogi on a sizzling plate - tender, flavorful, and served piping hot. It came with nutritious steamed rice and six complimentary banchan, which I absolutely love! Each side dish added something special to the meal. Well priced at $24.99 for such a satisfying and well-balanced experience. Definitely coming back! read more

We have driven by this place so many times but finally decided to try it for the first time this past weekend. We didn't have high expectations because we haven't had good Korean food in Mississauga. However, we were very surprised at how good all the food was. It's very comparable to the korean restaurants in North York. The service is pretty decent too & the food came really quick. Each table has their own tablet to send in our order. The restaurant itself is pretty old looking but it was very cosy. read more

Was craving korean food one night and checked out Wow on Dundas in Mississauga! Got a few sides to start and a green onion pancake which was super crispy. Bibimbap is my ultimate comfort food and the crispy rice cant be beat. Jjajangmyeon is also one of my all time fav. The sauce was blended perfectly and want too salty compared to others l've had before. Service was quick, and owners were very nice! The overall ambiance was comforting. read more

April 2/2022: This is a very simple Mom & Pop run family restaurant. The place itself is small, maybe seats 30 ppl but it was clean. A very large menu considering the place itself. The food was very good but not off the charts good. Great variety as well. We had the Fried Chicken. Good tasting but little actual meat on the chicken itself. The glass noodles were tasty as was the variety of small tastings they supplied. The highlight of the meal was the hot beef. It's was my best dish. I wouldn't come back again as the dishes didn't really impact. I do recommend that you try this place, however. read more

A small business run by lovely owners! Portions have gotten smaller for some dishes and the ginseng chicken soup no longer has ginseng anymore. But there banchans, leek seafood pancake and Kalbi Tang are all still great! Happy to support a local mom & pop shop. read more

Everything we get here has tasted fantastic. Been going through their entire menu one at a time. Their dwuen jang jjigae is awesome. Dare I say, better than my mom's. Also, whatever you do, do NOT pass up on the leek seafood pancake. Best I've had in all of GTA. They go the extra mile to get that really crunchy exterior to go along with the deliciousness inside. Amazing. Is there anything they can't do? read more

A good traditional mom and pop shop, the service is fine, the owners are nice, and the side kimchi dish are delicious!! Not sure if we can refill though, we didn't ask. A bit pricy ($16sth for the pancake, $13 for the soup which is okay and can't remember the price for the noodles) We enjoyed the pancake! It's crispy on the edge and the shrimp and squid are delicious. The soup is good but average good. We possibly won't drive there on purpose but next time if we're nearby and need some Asian food we'll revisit read more

I've been purposely avoiding this place for the past few years because I couldn't shake the feeling of being wronged from my past experience - but, my mother wanted to come, and so I went. I had the pork bone soup since it was a chilly autumn day. They were doing their anniversary special so many dishes were about $2 off; the pork bone soup I had was $9. Portion size is good; there's a lot of rice so the meal is definitely enough for one person. The meat is tender and the soup has a more subtle flavour that my mother likes. The soup came out piping hot and all the side dishes were good. It all comes down to preference; I've tried this pork bone soup a couple times and while it's not bad by any measure I just prefer the stronger, sweeter type of broth that I've had elsewhere. The venue is clean and quiet; we were the only ones there, which was kind of weird on a Saturday afternoon. The type of service hasn't changed - to get it you have to ask for it. It's good if you prefer being left alone to chat with friends, but don't expect above-and-beyond customer service. Overall, decent, but I've had better PBS. Normally, their prices are a bit higher than other establishments in the vicinity, so now is a good time to try this restaurant. read more

Everybody keep talking about the pork bone soup (gamjatang) at this place, is okay but a must try menu is their 'marinated pork ribs stew'...out of this world. Melt in your mount, we are all addicted to this dish and a must try for all. Adds on: They accept AMEX too, great people with great food read more

I didn't realized it went through a renovation until I saw it on a photo on Yelp. (I've tried it like 5 years ago.) So I went to check it out and surprisingly it was clean, spacious and welcoming. There's a small parking area in front of the place. There are six small side dishes which were good and I love the variety. The nutritious rice came with some yam which was a nice touch to it. However, the rice could be more chewy. The down side to it was that my soybean soup looked darker than I'm used to at other restaurants, so it ended up too salty to my liking. It was mostly tofu, onions And zucchini pieces. The tofu was not the silky type which I love how it can melt in your mouth. My partner got the pork bone soup and he was satisfied with his lunch. The potato could be cooked longer. Verdict: yes I would go back to try their other dishes. read more

One of the "better" Korean restaurants in Mississauga! I don't like Owl, Sikgaek is pretty solid, and Buk Chang specialises in soon tofu, so limited menu. Not having been here in a few years, I gave it another chance due to a hankering for Korean, but not wanting to go to any of the places listed above. And you know what? Offerings are solid, esp for my cold weather staple, PSB! There was enough meat and purple rice w/ pieces of pumpkin accompanied it. Side dishes were also plentiful, with a good variety! Yes, it's a Ma 'n Pa, but don't let the location stop you! read more

This really was a wow! Just wanted to pick up a bite after work and I came across this place. The spicy fried chicken was killer (I personally didn't find it spicy at all and would say the sauce is mild, but I imagine that's perfect for some). The chicken was so so yummy and paired so well with the cold pickled veggies. I will definitely be eating here again! Not to mention the very kind and friendly staff, it seems like a small family run business. read more

Had major cravings for Korean food, so decided to come here today to satisfy these feelings. They had the doors wide open when we went there, probably to air the area out. Since it was a little chilly today, we found it to be quite cold upon entry. Fortunately, we warmed up pretty quickly after eating. I was astonished to see that they offer Korean chicken ginseng soup for only $10.99, the same price as their seollangtang (beef bone broth). The soup was quite clear and light, and you can see the chicken oil floating on top. The serving size was decently large; it came with four sizeable pieces of chicken. Although there wasn't much of a ginseng flavour, there were two pieces each of red dates and onion, and quite a bit of black pepper bits at the bottom of the dolsot. The chicken was fall off the bone tender. The accompanying rice was very delicious, and pleasantly surprising! It came steaming hot in a silver pressure cooker (in fact, since they have an open kitchen, we were able to see how they cook all these pressure cookers individually), and was a lovely mix of glutinous rice, black beans, forbidden (black/purple) rice, and orange sweet potato. A great healthy choice! My parents also ordered a gamjatang, or pork bone soup, to share. It was decent, and like the chicken, the meat was very tender. The vertebrae ribs literally fell apart at the touch. I really loved the assortment of banchan provided. The waiter was also very attentive; he came over twice - once to ask whether we needed anything and whether everything was all right (we ended up asking for an extra serving of banchan), and another time to refill our tea. A great restaurant that we will definitely revisit! read more

Ordered items: Soft tofu soup - you get to add a meat which is nice since most soft tofu soups I've tried don't have that option Pork bone soup - flavourful, but the meat was a little hard to remove from the bones Overall, my favourite part is the rice with sweet potato, but nothing too special! read more

Ever since I moved back to Sauga, I've been frequenting Wow. Their soft tofu soup with seafood is really good comfort food. Good soup base, tofu, selection of seafood and veggies. Even the side dishes are good- I love their marinated potatos (and they don't mind if you ask for extra). Another good thing to note is their food has no MSG, and you can really feel it, you won't feel very thirsty. Well priced. The people there are also incredibly nice and efficient. The establishment is clean. I can't really think of a good reason not to recommend or return. Do note though, as Christians they don't open on Sunday. read more

The name truly lives up to the hype. Wow! What amazing, authentic Korean food they have here. Every bite I had of their food melted in my mouth amazingly. The place is kept well clean and small, which makes for a comfortable, quiet, calm environment. It's a family owned business as well which is great to see. To be honest, any kind of food you get here is all of high quality, so I can't specifically write about what dish to get over another. The prices are a little on the steep side but it is absolutely worth it in my opinion for the excellent food you get here. The other good news is the food comes out quick too, and the portions they give are large. If I remember correctly, they give a 10% discount if you pay with cash. I love coming here every time I'm in the area and will continue to do so. read more

Along the Dundas St. E, there are a few Korean restaurants. This is one of them. People coming from East (Dundas St. E.) or North (Jaguar Valley Dr. via Hurontario St.) will be easy to find this place and a plenty of parking space are right in front of the restaurant. I have been here many times. The owner and his wife are very friendly. Besides they make good food, they always chat with the diners and constantly refill tea for the customers. I usually order the chicken soup, the pork-on-the-bone soup and the potato pancake. The price for all these food is extremely reasonable compared to the Owl. I want to highlight the side dishes here. They offer 6 side dishes which are more than the other Korean restaurants in Mississauga. Not just the amount, the taste for all of them are flavourful. We ordered the chicken soup and the pork soup again. The soup base for the chicken soup is very clean and doesn't see much oil floating on the surface. Besides the chicken, we can also find the ginseng and the dates in the soup. The soup itself is very healthy. Plus, it also comes with the nutritious steamed rice, which boiled with red rice and other grains. Since the owners are celebrating the 16th anniversary, we find the special menu and some of the original dishes are on discounts. I ordered the pork soup, which is only $8.99. It comes with 3 big pieces of bones with lots of meat on them. Along with the price we paid associated with the amount of the tasty food, and the service we had, I couldn't find any issue with this place. read more

I was really craving Korean food during Family Day & got really excited about Wow Korean Restaurant's reviews. Came in and several tables were taken around 6:30PM on the Monday. My boyfriend and I ordered the bulgogi shared hotpot dish. The restaurant has approximately 8-10 tables but definitely not recommended for larger parties. They do share a small private parking lot with other businesses within the plaza, so it may be a bit of a competition We ordered the The banchan served were standard. Our dish is cooked in front of us so it came with a little gas stove top. On paper it was appealing but when it arrived ... ehhhh. The beef they used was falling apart and seemed poor in quality. The "broth" seemed like a it was made from sweet soy sauce only. The glass noodles were good though! Service is spotty because it's family owned and seem to only have the mom, dad, and son working. The dad is the main server while the other 2 are in the kitchen. Note: Their pork bone soup seems to be popular here and at a reasonable price - but I don't eat pork, so not for me.): For an extra side of white rice and a coke it came to about $50. I'll keep on looking for better Korean fare in Mississauga. read more

Well, I came back recently based on the recent positive review of this place. They have a 6.99 for special which includes 6 banchan/side dishes, purple rice, and the entree (either soft tofu stew of pork bone soup). The banchan were well flavoured, the soft tofu stew had ample amount of tofu and the purple rice was cooked really well and they also gave a lot of that too. For $6.99 (anniversary special), it was a great deal. In addition, it has been renovated, so the floors and tables look a lot nicer now and it's passable. Great upgrade. read more

Wow Korean Restaurant - Korean Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

My favourite Korean restaurant in the GTA. Been coming here for the last 20 years. Love their chicken ginseng soup served with Korean multigrain rice in a sizzling hot pot. Many of their other soup meals also come with the same kind of rice. Also love their bossam that comes with oysters. They have very nice noodle dishes like jjamppong, jajangmyeon and japchae. As well as regular favourites like Korean pancakes, dolsot bibimbap, bulgolgi, kalbi and spicy pork or squid on rice in hot plate. And their small side dishes like kimchi, radish, seeweed, beancurd, etc are replenished when u ask for it. If u want liquor, they also serve makgeolli, soju and beer. Operated by a husband and wife team. Sometimes they have additional help on busier days. Closed on Sundays. I eat out a lot so I can atest that their prices are very reasonable. Parking is sufficient and right in front of their shop. They take credit and debit cards. read more

Yes you will say wow when you taste it. I'm a newbie to experimenting with food from around the world but i sure like the pork and the noodles. I thought it may be spicy, which to my surprise it had a bit of a kick, but not knock you down spicy, which i like. It was tasty and I may have to come back again soon when i am in the area to try something new. But next time i hope to come here with someone a little more experienced than me so they can explain to me what i am getting into. FYI, the beer is cold, and that matters a whole lot. read more

Had the craving for Bibimbap and decided to try this place. Service was fine and on point but then again I was the only customer so it should be expected. The person who took my order was pleasant and friendly. In general the place looked clean, didn't go to the washroom so can't really tell about it's state. In terms of the food. Well as I was scanning the menu I did not find the word "Bibimbap". Instead the closest clue i got to a bibimbap was called "assorted vegetables with rice" which had an option for a stone bowl. When I asked if they had any other variety like beef or pork I was informed there was beef in it already. The portion of the bibimbap felt smaller compared to other places I have been. From the rice provided to the toppings itself. The taste...it wasn't bad but I guess underwhelming due to the small portions. I did get my satisfaction of the use of the stone bowl: sizzling effect on the rice. Hearing the sizzling and getting that crunchy texture of the rice was awesome! Everyone keeps talking about the 6.99 special. Maybe next time I'll try it. For now I'll leave my rating as "A-Ok" read more

Hi Yelplanders! Benny K here again. I honestly cant remember just how long I have been going to WOW for my Korean food fixes. All I can say is that I love the place. The prices here are just as good as Food Court across the street minus all the stinky vagrants begging for your money while you eat, and the lack of seating availability. Dont even get me started on the washrooms. OMG!! Those of you who have been to the Food Court know exactly what I am talking about. The husband and wife ownership duo are back in the same restaurant again. Hubby left for a while to run the show at Galleria but he is back!! They are the nicest people too. About the food, I have tried many of their dishes over the years and truly have not been disappointed. One of my personal faves is the Degi-Gogi (pork) Den-Jang Jigae (bean paste stew). Bit spicy. That with a side of Kimchi and rice. Dayaam! It is so flavorful. Also remember that you have the right to ask for things higher or lower on the scovilles if you know what I mean. Their in-house Kimchi compliments the mains so nicely. UMMMMMM. The Kimchi is made with love!! lol. Not spicy. After many Moons (no pun) the owners decided to renovate the place. Out with the old, in with the new. Check out my updated pics to see the place now. Big screen TVs and all. Even have Nutrient Rice aka Purple Rice now for some of the more health conscious eaters. So save yourself that drive to the Galleria. There is plenty of free parking and quick access to Mississauga Transit. It is just east of Hurontario on the north side of Dundas. You gotta try it out Yelpers. They even have at the table cooking options, and most, if not all of your Korean food faves!!!! Peace out Yelpers! read more

I was craving for korean food during lunch time and didn't want to go far from my area so we decided to try this one out. It's a small restaurant and the atmosphere is very casual and quiet. I was expecting it to be busy since it was a Saturday afternoon and everyone was grabbing lunch at nearby restaurants (traffic was horrible outside where this is located and it's hard to turn since they dont have a spacious parking lot). Once settled in, I appreciate for the fact that the people there were very nice and very attentive. The food, however, was okay. I noticed they had a lot of hot pots is in their menu and I ordered the "assorted seafood" one since I wanted to try it out. It was okay, nothing too fancy since the ingredients were kept simple. I just wish it had more flavor to it. The hot pots I believe range from 7-10$ I think... so if your in the mood for hot pots you can go there and try them out. So far, their hot pots are the least pricey I've come across since the one's I know cost a little bit more than theirs. And, they also serve other food too like bulgogi and such..which is quite nice too. Then again, I wish it had more flavor. Their side dishes are good I must say. They give you a lot of serving on each dish and I like they don't cheap out. Overall, I would recommend going here if your craving for Korean food to fill your tummy (if your around the area). This is the place to try out. If you have high expectations on what Korean food SHOULD taste like, then skip out on this and make a trip downtown. read more

I have only been here once for take out on the way downtown to see my sister along with some friends. We picked up GamJaTang hot pot(My favorite Korean Dish by far) and some fried pot stickers. The pork bone soup was okay, not what I'm used to texture wise from Old Korea Town(College) /New korea town (Young/finch) But the plus is they add so much extra in that other places don't, boiled pot stickers/rice cakes/veggies. And there was noticeably more meat then other locations. Plus the size was huge compared to others, 4 of us ate it for dinner and 1 more for lunch. They also have purple rice =D Would like to go back and try out a few more items, but only if I'm in the area and don't want to trek up or down town. Not a lot of parking but plazas next door have more. Plus: Washrooms are located in a different area downstairs and it is kind of creepy getting to it, you have to go through a couple of hallways and doors :s on a another plus the people who own and run this restaurant are really friendly :D read more

I was so disappointed with the food here. I invited some non-Korean friends who wanted to try Korean food. And this place was mid-way for all of us. Pretty much every dish we ordered tasted so bland. Kalbi was just soy sauce and sugar, and wasn't grilled well. Tasted like it was steam. Awful. Would not recommend this place. I was embarrassed and disappointed. (I was born and raised in Korea and my mom made homemade korean food everyday.) read more

Came here to get take out on a friday evening. The place was pretty crowded at around 7 pm. I ordered the pork bone soup, which was quite flavourful and has been cooked for a long time. I also ordered the sweet and sour chicken, it was ok as well. Since the chicken pieces were small, it was quite hard once they get cold. I would prefer the chicken pieces to be bigger in strip form. read more
