Super cozy and chill spot for drinks and small bites with friends! The atmosphere is great and the server and owner were so kind. It was a great stop after dinner at a nearby restaurant, giving a chance for the night to continue with more drinks and food. Will definitely be back again to try some of the other drinks (super extensive cocktail menu) and food (lots of interesting korean fusion options!)

The food is absolutely the best. The chicken was to die for, not greasy cooked to perfection nice and crispy skin.

I love this place. People are great, food's great, atmosphere's great. And the washrooms are clean. 10 out of 10 for the Den.
Oh, and they've got a fun open mic on Wednesdays at 7:30pm.

The owner was very kinda and the food came extremely fast. The happy hour 5-7 is a great deal, especially the kimchi fries which are a really good portion and super crispy. We got 3 happy hour dishes to share and it was more than enough for 2 people. Would love to come back sometime

One of the best meals I’ve eaten in a long time! The crispy eggplant and boiled eggs were melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Cozy atmosphere and very kind staff. Will be coming here every time I am in Toronto!

I was curious about Korean fusion plus the rating is high so I went with a friend. I’m glad I tried, but won’t go again. Not worth the price.
The food is Korean but fusiones with Italian. The taste and presentation are good. But the portion is super small (appetizer size) and all deep fried. After 3 small dishes, my stomach was not comfortable already. I think they did a good job in mixing the two cuisines. However, in terms of value, it’s missing the mark. I’d rather have authentic Korean or Italian. This probably explains why other restaurants next door had a lineup and it was empty here. Maybe it gets busy late at night (feels like a late night drinking date night kinda place).

We were walking on Baldwin not knowing where to go when we spotted their chalkboard sign that was absolutely too cute to ignore. As we went inside we were warmly greeted and promptly sat. The menus the vibe, the staff, and the overall experience was nothing short of superb. I am not surprised this place has a 5 star overall and hope this place gets the recognition it deserves. To the owner I wish you nothing but the best and expect to see me again soon. This place is a MUST go if you’re looking for a fun night out with friends.
Loved this place! Delicious food and cocktails, great happy hour deals, fast service.

A very cozy and intimate place with delicious food and great service. It was my first time and the food was delicious and the place itself is also a mini art gallery. There is a drawing event every Tuesday around 7 pm to grab some snacks and drinks while learning new skills. 귀하의 서비스에 감사드립니다 ❤️🙌

**5 Stars - Outstanding Korean Innovation**
Tiger Den delivers an exceptional dining experience that completely redefines Korean cuisine. Chef Young’s creative vision transforms traditional flavors into something truly remarkable - each dish feels like a carefully crafted revelation rather than just a meal.
The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between sophisticated lounge and authentic Korean warmth. The music selection creates an ideal backdrop for conversation without overwhelming the space. You can actually talk here, which is rare these days.
What impressed me most was the presentation quality - this is fine dining execution with Korean soul. Every plate arrives as a visual statement, but the flavors back up the artistry completely. The attention to detail in both taste and plating is meticulous.
The “clean” approach to Korean flavors here is masterful. Bold without being heavy, innovative without losing authenticity. You can taste the technique and thoughtfulness in every bite.
This isn’t your typical Korean spot - it’s an elevated culinary experience that happens to be Korean. If you’re looking for something that challenges your expectations while delivering incredible food in a genuinely enjoyable atmosphere, Tiger Den is essential.
Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates culinary innovation and spaces that actually enhance the dining experience rather than just house it.
