Nam San is my go to place for blood sausage soup! It is very authentic dish with multiple spicy level. The owner is so kind that I would like to keep visiting this place. They have more options of Korean foods such as Bibim Bop (rice bowl with many vegies/beef), Blood Sausages, Beef Soup, Bulgogi, Pork Soup (This is so good), and more!

This is in the food court of Robson Public Market, so I gave only (1) star for atmosphere, but this place is way worth it to visit and try with their good foods and kindness.

I visited because I wanted to eat soup, but the regular price is $15.99 and the special price is $17.99, which is a bit pricey. Looking at previous reviews, it looks like it comes in an earthen pot, but everyone in my group, including me, came in a plastic container, 3 pieces of radish radish, and a bag of seaweed. The radish radish and seaweed were so delicious. Kkakdugi costs an additional $1 for 2 packs, and rice balls cost an additional $2.50 per pack.
Above all, I ordered a special, but some of the sundaes smelled too much like pork, and the broth was spicy and spicy. There is a lot of meat. I looked at the reviews and saw that they had glass noodles, but we didn't have any. You also need to buy water.
The other group's food was too salty...
The owner was kind though.

Food quality was extremely low. Disappointed!
The korean cook needs to learn how to be kind to a customer. Never come back here Namsan Korean Cuisine.
Junk food.

1. At first, I thought he was a Chinese person who couldn't speak Korean because I asked the cook a question and he didn't answer, but after asking several times, he reluctantly answered unkindly, which made me feel bad.
2. The hot sundae soup was served in a disposable container, but I lost my appetite, and the side dish was a piece of kimchi.
3. The tteokgalbi was covered in oil and had been thawed from the freezer.
4. The half-hearted stir-fried pork is also in a disposable container and the taste is poor quality.

It was really tasteless, unfriendly, and the worst restaurant I've ever been to.
Please take note, everyone.

I would recommend this restaurant establishment. I did come here many times and still love their cooking. Seolleongtang and Gamja-tang are both recommended. Portions are awesome, so much, and very tasty. I gave 3 on service as it was very slow, 1 person do everything, however he is a nice person.

This is a place I visited twice.The first time I went with a friend, we ordered two pieces of sundae soup and gave him a tip, but perhaps because he was busy, I tried to bring my friend sundae soup instead, and he said, “You should bring your own!” He got angry and said, “Your personality is really weird” haha;; I was embarrassed, but I still understood.The second time I visited, they were preparing to open, and I asked what time they would open, and the answer wasHe said, “Can’t you see?” and pointed to the place where the opening hours were written.Well, that's how I am. I don't think I'll ever go again. Just looking at some of the reviews, it seems like he's very famous for his personality.+In the main comment, you said, “If you want to be respected, please respect others too,” and that’s what I want to say to the boss. How about looking at other 1-point reviews and looking back at what the boss has done so far? :)

Fantastic! Bolgogi beef with noodles on rice. Absolutely satisfying. Quite the culinary corner up here in the nearby abandoned Robson square market.

I have been craving this soup for a while, and I was thinking of North Vancouver or Louheed, which sells this type of food, but that's too far from where I am located. I decided to order this Sundae soup and stir-fried pods. I avoided going there in person since I read about all the reviews from the restaurant.I have been there in person, and eating inside was two years ago. I am unsure about eating at a restaurant in person now, but the reviews were not positive, so I decided to order through delivery.Honestly, The food was not good; I got a Mild level of spicy, and it's medium. I don’t think the owner checked my order correctly and gave me this soup. The last time I ordered a mild spicy level, it was more like pure soup. I have a sensitive colon and stomach, and I cannot eat spicy food as it can cause severe diarrhea or some stomach problems. I could not eat this soup. Be careful when you order their food; also, they get some smell from food. I would like to give stars like 1.5/5. Sorry, since I don’t think so, I will go back to this restaurant and order again…just no choice and option for me in Downtown.

The sundae soup was edible. However, the unreasonable prices, the environment where you have to buy water to drink, and the owner who speaks informally to the customers don't look very good. Especially in an environment where I had to buy water, I regretted my visit a little when I saw people tapping the small refrigerator next to me while ordering and asking if I didn't need a drink. I don't think there's any need to come again.
