This is my first time leaving a review, but I feel I have to mention this. I ordered a takeout soup from this place, and unfortunately found a fairly large piece of eggshell in it — which was really unpleasant.
Also, the soup container was sealed with a layer of plastic film. I’ve seen similar packaging at other restaurants, but this one was extremely difficult to remove. Overall, it made for a frustrating experience.

Food is okay given the location. Lots of better Korean spots in Scarborough if you are willing to drive out of the area.
Pretty ridiculous that there is automatic 15% gratuity ONTOP of the tax for parties over 4 people. Wouldn’t be an issue if the service is good, but they don’t even set the table up or fill your water. All the utensils and cups come clustered in a bowl. Never came to ask how the food was or refill the side dishes.
Overall good for takeout and not for dine-in.

Terrible service, had to ask for water and cutlery, people that came in after us were served before. Had to ask a couple of times for the bill 1st time there, but with never go back.

If you're looking for the perfect korean food, they got you! A big serving but very affordable that will make your tummy happy. Bonus? They have the most amazing and friendly people in there. Must try!

Not good food, especially compared to the numerous korean restaurants I have eaten in Toronto and around the world. I knew it was not good and I knew not to trust the good reviews here, they probably do not know good and authentic Korean food. The Bulgogi soup, the beef was chewy and the soup was meh! The Kamjatang was not good either! I have eaten in another Minerva restaurants, and it was also meh so this is my last time in this chain of restaurant. I was craving for Korean food to tonight and in our area this was just one of two Korean ones, probably should have tried the other! Serves me right to give in to my cravings!
The place’s atmosphere was also bland like their food, it has a cafeteria atmosphere, unlike other Korean restaurants, where you can feel the authenticity.
The service was meh as well. I saw customers leaving and they said their thank yous, and the owner or staff did not even acknowledge them. And they also have the gall to ask for a service tip even if it is for take-out, I mean it is prevalent nowadays but there are some places that do not do this egregious custom, which is commendable.

Tasty and reliable as always. But, a bit too salty on the squid bokkeum.
