Casual spot focused on delivering traditional Korean food with minimal frills at good value. Had the spicy beef soup with noodles and my partner had the gamjatang with ramen noodles. Tasty and spicy where appropriate.Service was good as the one waiter managed all the tables. Still they were generous with the sides and our food came quickly despite the restaurant getting busier with other patrons and several delivery orders.Great spot for local Korean food in Etobicoke.

Authentic and quality Korean cuisine they serve here. I brought my cousin who just landed from Korea here and both of us absolutely loved it! I had 불고기뚝배기 and she had 김치찌개, both were absolutely delicious and taste healthy. We'll definitely come back more often!!

This is by far my favourite Korean restaurant in Toronto! Not only is the food amazing but the owners and staff are so nice and personable. I have been coming here since they first opened and have never had a bad experience!

Favourite spot in the West End for quality and authentic Korean food! We really enjoyed the friendly service and delicious Chaban bibimbap and bulgogi.

Wow. Price is better than owls. Food spectacular. Ordered pork bone soup take out, taste better than I imagined. They also gave me like 3 banchans love that. This place deserves to be more known! Will defineately try other dishes on their menu very soon !

Authentic family-owned restaurant with no frills: food is great and portions are big. The prices are pretty affordable and the service is attentive. It's my go-to when I'm in the area, I recommend it if you're looking for authentic food at a convenient price.
Kid-friendliness: There are highchairs available for kids and a little nook with books to entertain the little ones.

I normally do not write a review for Korean food as I am born and raised in Korea, but this restaurant needs a feedback. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECY!! Especially Chaban Bibimbap is one of the best bibimbop Ive ever tasted in Toronto/GTA. Seafood pancake was crispy and well seasoned. Kimchi chihae great as well! Will definitely re-visit often!

It's been a long time since I've enjoyed a meal delivered to my home.Many times my dinner tastes like cardboard.Chaban was absolutely delicious!!!I definitely recommend!
i would give this a 4 star normally, as I have been coming here for over a decade. But my last visit i had what appeared to be a new employee. She wished to seat us at a centre table, to which we kindly asked if the side tables were open. She said no that they were reserved. Within 1/2hr, we saw random people walk in, ask for a table (and granted another server) proceeded to seat them IN THOSE EXAST empty tables we just had asked for. So what gives? Come on? Stupidity? Agenda? New hire in training on a power trip? Well I didn't appreciate that a long standing customer after a decade still could be treated cold and faceless after all these years. Sorry, I think your food is small on the portions too, which is why you don't get the 5 stars. Look I'm not vindictive. She may have been new, dump (check), and she may be gone. Great. I'll come back. But until then SEE YA.

Just had dinner this evening. I ordered the dumpling soup ( very light and flavorful/ dumplings delicious) and my partner the pork bone stew. Both were GREAT. You could tell by the richness of flavour that everything was made fresh from scratch and with alot of love. Table next to us ordered Bibimbap and a tofu stew. Those looked and smelt amazing as well. The service was perfect as well. We highly recommend this restaurantPrices are very good as well
