Amazing Korean restaurant with dishes you can’t find anywhere else, especially the soondae!! Fairly priced, service is good, and sides are always yummy

This is most likely my favourite Korean spot in the GTA. The service, food, and ambience are all among the best. I’m a big fan of the laid back atmosphere. The jjajang myun and bossam are a must!

Fried pork sizzling plate (C1 on the menu) is below expected. Too much sauce, too salty, little amount of pork and it’s overcooked tasting like rubber. Large portion of the plate is vegetables. It’s definitely not worth the price.

Some of the menu needs work - i.e. Popcorn chicken. Its 14 dollars for some tiny bits of chicken probably from Costco. Portion sizes are average ~ below average. To give credit the soup based dishes taste pretty authentic though. All in all wouldn't recommend

We went there during lunch time on a Tuesday. It was a bit busy considering it was a weekday.
The staff was nice, friendly and attentive.
We were given a small noodle soup as an appetizer. It was very good and also on the house. The side dishes were great especially the mashed potato salad which was surprising. We ordered GamjaTang(Pork Bone Soup), Haemul Sundubu-jjigae(Seafood Soft Tofu Stew) and Chicken Katsu. The soups were flavourful and the cutlet has a large portion. They also serve the meal with free hot tea which was refreshing.
All in all great dining experience. It is now my new Korean spot in Scarborough.
Was craving soondae, jok bal and bossam. This place had all 3 to satisfy my craving. All the dishes were delicious. Food was tender and seasoned perfectly. The sweet and sour pork tang su yuk had a nice thin layer of batter and lots of meat. Really enjoyed everything and I want to come back to try the rest of the menu. Service was quick, efficient and kind. Nice decor and atmosphere and background music

Great donkatsu and excellent variety of banchan. Favourite banchan dishes were the black sesame salad, potatoes and kelp salad. Also got stews which weren’t too bad.

I was genuinely excited to try De Chou after seeing it pop up on TikTok. We headed over around 9 pm starving, but the moment we walked in, something felt off. The place seemed empty up front, and the only person I noticed coming out was a server lugging a mop bucket. When we said hi and asked for a table for two, there was no warmth in their greeting and she barely replied and silently led us to a table.
We ordered the jajangmyeon, the chadol doenjang-jjigae, and the popcorn chicken “deep-fried karaage.” The noodles were a standout! They were perfectly cooked, flavourful, and easily my favorite thing we ordered. The chadol doenjang-jjigae was decent, solid enough.
But the popcorn chicken was a letdown. I was expecting larger, traditional karaage style pieces not tiny, KFC style popcorn bites and definitely not worth a $12.99 price tag for that.
We never once saw our server again. No check ins, no “do you want more sides?”, no “how’s everything?” All she did was take the empty plates and felt like I was bothering her if I was to ask for something. It felt like we were there strictly to eat and leave not exactly what I think of as hospitality. Which is a shame, since I had built it up based on hype.
All in all, I wouldn’t recommend it based on my visit. Maybe it was just an off night, but the whole thing.. cold greeting, one and done service, pricey tiny chicken left me wishing I’d gone elsewhere for Korean food
