Food tastes fantastic. We love ordering the seafood pancake! The food is also great for sharing. Serving size is more than enough for two hungry people. The servers were also very attentive to our needs. Serving time was quick too! Definitely going back.
Been here several times with friends. Forgot to write the review. Tonight we tried the Bi Bim Bap and Ginseng Chicken soup. Both are delicious. The bibimbap hot stone bowl was still hot after 20 mins. The ginseng chicken soup might not be a dish for everyone but I just love it. If you never had ginseng and red dates, I would not recommend you to order. I ordered it because my grandma used to drink soup with ginseng or red dates in it. I would order it again. It does not have a strong taste from the herbs. It’s mild in flavour. Maybe it is just some I need for a change from eating deep fried, greasy or grilled meat.
Small-ish restaurant. Parking space limited and parking cars can be challenging. Very nice neighborhood. Part of the taste of Lawerence strip.
FOOD IS GREAT AND HAVE BEEN FOR THE PAST10 YEARS. LOVE COMING HERE AS IT REALLY GIVES YOU A HOMECOOK VIBE MEALS.
HOWEVER, SINCE MY LAST FEW VISITS THIS SERVER IN PARTICULAR IS OVERLY DISMISSIVE AND RUDE.
SHE DOESNT SEEM TO KNOW WHAT CUSTOMER SERVICE IS, DOESNT BOTHER WRITING DOWN OUR ORDER THEN SHE CAME BACK 10 MINS LATER ASKING WHAT IT WAS.
SHE DIDNT GIVE US ANY UTENSILS OR WATER TILL WE ASKED FOR IT..
THE NEXT TABLE BESIDE US ASKING FOR HER RECOMENDATIONS, BUT AS YOU CAN CLEARY SEE ON THIS PHOTO. SHE DOESNT GIVE ANY INTEREST..
SUCH AN AMAZING RESTAURANT THAT SERVES YUMMY FOOD ONLY TO BE TREATED IN SUCH WAY.
So glad we have a solid Korean restaurant in Scarborough! Pork Bone Soup is outstanding, but as many have commented, their side dishes with tteokbokki and egg plant was amazing. Even filled it!
The vegetable wraps with bulgogi is a standout option too, with sizzling plate.
As always. Good food. Good service.
Still my fave is Pork Bone soup. We tried the vegetable wrap. They are good too.
The have the best side doshes in Toronto.
I discovered Makkal Chon on a spring day in 2018. Little did I know, that my life would be changed forever. The beef bulgogi is my comfort food, I have it almost once a week. It never disappoints and I can taste the love and effort put into the food. I am so grateful this place was not affected by the fire in the same plaza last year.
Overpriced, watered down, small portions.
One of my favourite restaurants in Toronto 🥰
One of my favourite Korean restaurants in Scarborough. Been here quite a few times and the Food here never disappoints.
I ordered their Seafood pancake, Gamjatang (extra spicy), Vegetable wrap combo with pan fried spicy pork and squid.
When I asked for extra spicy, they surely delivered and it hit the spot. Whenever I crave for some comfort food, this is the spot I hit up.
Their seafood pancake is a must try here.
Our fav Korean place in Toronto.

One of my go to Korean spots in Scarborough. Been going here for almost the last decade and I hope this spot stays. Love their massive seafood pancake. The crispy edges are so addicting. They give so many sides and refill them for you.
The food here is great! Comes to the table hot and fresh and beautifully presented. I love the pork bone soup. Highly recommend!
I friend took me to the restauran. He told me he use to eat there when he was in college years ago. I loved it so much. From the quality of the food to the atmophere. :) the price was also good.
Great value and the food was superb! Hope to try the other dishes soon!
Great food
