“Authentic and delicious. The restaurant is always playing K-pop on the TV and the air conditioning is permanently kept on cold- bring a sweater! As mentioned, everything from the sauce to the main course was delicious. The rosé ttebokki we ordered was a bit spicy, the sweet and sour crispy chicken was perfect to kill the spice.
Kid-friendliness: Big menu. No kids selection but the food items can come simple for picky eaters. TV is always on to cure child restlessness.“

“Love this place! The sushi was super fresh and tasty — especially the rolls and sashimi. We also had a few Korean dishes, and they were just as good. Staff were really friendly and made us feel welcome. Portions were generous and everything came out quickly. Definitely coming back!“

“Wanted to try something different from the usual so we tried Mom’s Bite. And we were glad we did. The service was friendly and the food fresh and tasty. We had the beef and falafel sandwiches and plan to visit again to try other menu options.“

“I will recommend this restaurant to my friends, first it’s actually ran by Korean people ❤️, second they are truly attentive (the girl notice we were putting the empty side dishes away and she came right up to check if we wanted more. We felt very comfortable eating there), third their food is good, and serving time is also very good . We waited for about 5 minutes after our order, our food was brought to us one after one.
The only thing I noticed is it’s a bit dark in it. And it could be my aged eyes 👀 as well.
In short, a very nice place for Korean food. Recommend!“

“The king size dumplings are super tasty and the kimichi tastes super fresh. Highly recommend in term of the quality of the food and the dumplings are about $1-2 dollars cheaper than the other one. It tastes not as salty than the others nearby but its not as big (that has terrible customer service) that sells the same thing. Update: just went into the store in person to check out the place today. The server who greeted me had NO customer service. After I ordered she kicked me out of the store to stand in the cold for 10 mins to wait for the food...and there was only her and the cook and no other customer in the store. I have also ordered their homemade kimichi as a side and it is such a small bowl but more expensive than the other korean restaurant (theirs small kimichi is $3 bucks) nearby who served similar food....hmmmmmm worth to give it a try but the customer service will keep me from going into the store for a bit. Just order take out its easier“

“Pork bone soup is straight up fire!! Best in town. Better than any other Korean restaurant around this area or even in GTA. I only had this taste in Winnipeg unfortunately they closed for good. Definitely coming back for the soup again the only Korean food restaurant on my list now.“

“5/5 Stars – A Must-Try for Korean Food Lovers!
I recently dined at The Owl of Minerva, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a casual meal or a late-night bite. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt welcome throughout our visit.
The food was absolutely phenomenal. I ordered the classic Pork Bone Soup (Gamjatang), and it was hands down the best I’ve ever had—rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The portions were generous, and every dish was fresh and authentic. Their side dishes (banchan) were also delicious and complemented the meal perfectly.
The service was quick despite how busy it was, and the pricing was very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes.
Whether you're craving comfort food or looking to explore Korean cuisine, The Owl of Minerva is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Highly recommend—5/5 stars!“

“Servers seem a bit understaffed but the food is good. Portions are larger than expected (e.g. ordered a set meal for 2 to feed 4 adults with leftovers), which is good value. Bring a bag or something for your coats to avoid having them smelling like KBBQ smoke after. I would skip on the fried chicken or pork because they have better alternatives.“

“A small but busy place for Korean fried chicken, stone pot rice and pork cutlet😊 The stone pot rice with beef $23 is our favorite, the beef is so tender and tasty😋 No 2 on the menu us the one with eggplant at $19, a little spicy though. The pork cutlet king $23 is huge with 3 big pieces which feed three people. Their fried chicken is juicy and flavorful as well. We always order the 7 pieces with green onion, very consistent and solid every time. The space is very small, can fit in 8-9 tables, so get there early to avoid line up. The atmosphere is like small bar, with open kitchen, very welcoming and upscale. The service is ok, can be better. Overall, it is a solid Korean restaurant, with limited menu choices, but consistent, tasty items that they offer.“

“Perfectly cooked meat and flavourful veggies every time! We drive more than an hour back and forth just for the amazing food. I’ve tried a variety of dishes from the menu and they’re all so tasty. My favourite is the spicy pork on rice , and my picky child loves the Korean meatloaf. Highly recommend!!“

“Bukchangdong Soon Tofu never disappoints! Everything tastes super authentic and the soon tofu is such a comfort food.
This time, we got the ham & sausage soon tofu (햄소세지 순두부) and the dumpling soon tofu (만두 순두부). Both come with stone pot rice as well. The server was kind enough to scoop out the rice into a bowl and give us water to make nurungji (누룽지). Each dish comes with its own serving of side dishes, including an egg, kimchi, radish, and roasted beans. The egg is raw and is meant to be cracked and poured into the soup while it’s still hot. You can adjust the spiciness level when you order and can choose from plain, mild, medium, regular, and extra spicy. I got the regular spiciness for the ham & sausage soon tofu and it’s just a slight kick of flavour and just the right amount of spice for this dish, nothing too crazy. The dumpling soon tofu that we ordered was plain spiciness and did not have any spice to it, but stilm tasted good. Everything tasted absolutely heavenly and the warm soup is perfect for a cold winter day!
This location is conveniently located within Hmart in their food court. Plenty of seating and great service! Highly recommend!!“

“It was the perfect red bean shaved ice.
They filled the insulated bag with ice, so I went home after shopping and it wasn't melted at all. I shared it with my husband today, but from next time we each decided to have one shaved ice.“

“Y'all, this place is so delicious. I've been here 3 times so far and every time is so consistent. I love the crispy mozzarella rice dog and the Mac & Cheese bites. The sauces give you so much variety it's a treat. The staff is friendly and the seating area is casual, I usually do take out.“
