Odd Seoul is a charming little spot that perfectly encapsulates the hipster vibe of the neighborhood. The small plates they offer are packed with flavour and creativity, making each bite a unique and delightful experience. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with a laid-back vibe.The staff at Odd Seoul are friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall humble and unpretentious feel of the place.Overall, Odd Seoul is a hidden gem that is definitely worth a visit. They have been around for a decade and maybe stay for couple more decades. Whether you're looking for a casual meal with friends or a fun date night spot, this restaurant has something for you. The food flavors here are big and bold, making for a truly memorable dining experience.
Came in on a random Tuesday night as soon as they opened, and we were lucky to be seated at the table of our choice.The service in here was awesome because everyone was so attentive and checked in just to say hi and not interrupt conversations but in a really friendly way.There was three of us were here, and we decided to share almost everything that we ordered and nothing failed our expectations.My favourite was the bao bun and the Philly cheesesteak.It’s a really small intimate environment and within an hour it was packed with a few bar seats left!Can’t wait to come back and try more of things on the menu.
Literally a 5/5 in every category! All 4 dishes we ordered were sooooo intensely flavorful and the cocktails were also just right!!Our server Jenny was amazing and topped off our night with some excellent service!This combination of great service and delicious fusion food is hard to come by!
The food is good not incredible. I went here for dinner on a Thursday night and I won’t be coming back to dinner here in the future, but if I was on Ossington having a few drinks and wanted to find a place to grab a delicious snack at the end of the night, there’s no better place than this spot.
Absolutely love this place. I always order a bunch of their plates with my friends and all of them are hits but the squash poutine is my favourite. Although I think they changed the recipe because it’s not quite the same as I remember and I really liked it before. Still, one of my favourite places in the city!

For a place that you have to wait outside in the cold for until there's room, the hype wasn't there. The slaw was heavy and felt pretty much like a salad. The japchae was ok but again felt heavy too and had a very similar taste to the slaw. Of the things we ordered the squash poutine was probably the better of all, but still kind of rich and I couldn't taste any distinct Korean flavours. I also don't remember any cheese curds if it was a poutine.Overall I don't really suggest it for food. The drinks were ok and the vibe was good, but again not good enough to wait outside in a line for in the cold, imo.
We arrived 6pm but the staff said they open half an hour hour later with bad

Food was a bit salty but I guess all bar food is like that. It tastes fusion Korean dish but it was good. The service and atmosphere were amazing tho!

We got a bar seating. The place is small and is setup with a nice rustic vibe. Their soju based cocktails are sweet and nice. Good food options too.

Yum!!! We arrived right at opening and were greeted so warmly. Our waitress gave us great insight with the size of dishes relative to the number of guests as it is sharables. Everything was full of flavour and very fresh. The cheesesteak was incredible!!! Recommend!

Prep yourself for a flurry of wonderful flavours. Get the spicy salad and the Korean Big Mac. Or the wings. Honestly you can’t lose.
