“My boyfriend and I absolutely love the taste of their yang yum red chicken! I've only been to a Korean BBQ so to find something like this small place in Waterloo is perfect. I original came for the kimbap but fell in love with the chicken and bulgolgi bao sandwich. Highly recommend the yang yum meal set because it comes with so much and the japchae noodles are delicious!“

“Above average KBBQ place where you can order eats accordingly. We typically order pork belly and short rib. Lots of food for two people, and you can refill your banchan (side dishes). It comes with fermented soybean stew and corn cheese. Meat is fresh, but it can get pricey for beef or those with big appetites. You can order mushrooms to grill as well.“

“I came across this lovely place on my Ubereats trip.
I couldn’t wait to try it out myself and finally today was the day.🥰
First, I have to give recognition to the kind, friendly women working here. They really are so attentive and welcoming to you!
Today I tried the Veggie Kimbap and ham and cheese sandwich.
It was so freshly made and especially the Kimbap was packed with veggies and so colourful. I loved it and I felt healthier afterwards. It is very filling as well.
I also enjoyed the presentation of the food in its packaging which makes you have an even more satisfying experience and appetite.

I will definitely visit often.

Thank you for such a wonderful experience and meal 🥰🙏“

“Dinning at this place gave me a feeling of dinning outside of Canada, and instantly made me feel like I was dinning inside a family restaurant in Korea! The menu offered lots of items and the prices were very reasonable! The staff were very friendly and served the food in no time! The food was freshly prepared and was very delicious! Nothing is better than enjoying authentic Korean food prepared by Korean!“

“This Korean Restaurant located near University of Waterloo, they had a good korean food such as Crispy Korean Chicken with different glazed from Spicy Sweet Sauce, Honey BBQ, Honey Garlic, Soy Garlic etc, I specificaly like the Honey BBQ one, we also try the Fire Chicken, a spicy stir fry chicken with vegetables. This one good for those who like spicier dish.🔥🔥👍 we also love the condiment that comes free such as pickled turnip and carrot, kimchee, glazed sweet potato and I think pickled fish cake with cabbage.
I just didnt quite like the kimchee pancake. Too thick and didnt quite like the taste. The restaurant can be very busy during lunch time even on weekend.“

“We had the opportunity to try Nuri Sushi yesterday and to say we were impressed is an understatement!! This place is fantastic! We loved the atmosphere, the sushi and the Amazing food ! I don’t review restaurants often, but this place deserved it! We can’t wait to return soon to share it with more of our family & friends! Thank you to Nuri Sushi for such a wonderful evening“

“Ordered the rice cakes with ramen and seasoned fried chicken. We asked for less spicy and the rice cakes came watery… still tasted good but diluted. Fried chicken was BOMB, gochujangy sweet and saucy.

The lady who served us was very sweet and attentive.“
