“De loin la meilleure expérience culinaire que j'ai eue le droit. Délicieux! Service impeccable! Un petit endroit super sympa qui nous met dans une bonne ambiance pour manger des repas exquis! Je recommande sans aucun doute!“

“Très bon !! Je recommande 😌“

“I really love Mukja. It's such a cute and simple spot but really hits home with the flavours and meals. I love that you can get Makgeolli here, and their tteokbokki is to die for. I really love their baby octopus as well. I really recommend going here and trying. a bit of everything. The prices are SO affordable compared to most places, and this keeps us coming back even though we live an 1hr away. Keep up the fantastic work!“

“OMG the best kbbq i’ve been to in a while!!! I visited daldongnae cos i was craving korean food - top notch food, super attentive staff and lots of banchan for free. i had such a great meal xx

엄청 맛있어요! 강추“

“Great neighbourhood restaurant offering a variety of classic Korean dishes. Family friendly and affordable. Food is always consistently good. They also have Korean beer and soju, which is appreciated at the end of the week!“

“Opiano is a cozy Korean restaurant right next to McGill University and it’s perfect for students to grab lunch after class. 🍲 It offers authentic and tasty Korean dishes at a very reasonable price, making it a go-to spot for both quick meals and casual hangouts.

In the summer, they serve bingsu (shaved ice dessert), and I have to say the milk flavor is the richest and creamiest you can find in Montreal. 🧊🥛 Absolutely delicious! Strongly recommended for anyone looking for great Korean food near campus. 🌟“

“Best Korean restaurant in Montreal 💕“

“Love the place! The tteokbokki was surprisingly good and the service was impeccable. Dont know about the point of view of ismael but the experience i had for a first time was really great. Would recommand this place to everyone who wants to eat good food.“

“Very tasty. Great service from Lay. I’ll be back!“

“The best Korean dining experience I've had yet! The food was incredible, the place was cute and cozy. They serve tea at need (instead of cold water which will just make you feel full) and everything was fresh and tasty. I highly recommend this place and thank you to our friends that showed us the place!“

“I love this place. I had been here before and was surprised to see that some people have complained about portion sizes before because I knew there was no way we were going to finish everything when the food started arriving. I've had Korean food in quite a few places in Montreal and I could tell that this was like homecooking the moment I started eating my kimchi stew. Absolutely divine. Even my kids liked it. The seafood/kimchi pancake was nice and thick and very flavorful. It's easy to overcook seafood but that wasn't the case here, everything was cooked just right.
The fried chicken was cooked to perfection and the whole chicken was a lot even for 4 of us. I haven't seen portions this big in Montreal restaurants so again, I'm puzzled by some of the previous reviews.
We took some time to talk with the waiter and it's a family-owned restaurant. I guess that's why everything felt so comforting on a foggy, rainy night; the parents were in the back cooking away. I really can't overstate how much we enjoyed this meal. 감사합니다!“

“Premiere fois que je fais le "Tip the bill" et c'est mérité à 100% !👌😃“

“Best Korean food I've ever eaten. The food arrives still piping hot (like literally sizzling in cast iron). Service is super fast too, we got all of our food within maybe 10 minutes of ordering. Very affordable, 120$ for 4 ppl, a table absolutely full of food, a bottle of soju and a beer. Will definitely be coming back here!“

“Great service and AMAZING fried chicken!!! A must try ��“

“Amazing place! Food, ambiance, service... If you are a gourmet lover, I highly recommend it!“

“Super service, nourriture délicieuse, personnels accueillants. A1“

“Amazing fried chicken and great service! The chicken was delicious, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. A big shoutout to the tattooed server who was super sweet and patient in helping us choose. We'll definitely be back! Highly recommend!“

“très bon plats bonne qualité et très bon service“

“First time to try here, the boneless chicken was our favourite, my kid loves it!!! And i ordered 2 kinds of skewers for myself (squid and chicken gizzards ) both of them are season well, a little spicy kick, but i like it. The cashier (maybe manager) is nice! Enjoy the food, will be back for other foods!“

“It was the first time in a month that we ordered food and boy was it satisfying. Arrived hot, spicy and soooo good! Thank you Ganadara! Will order again for sure!“

“I ordered a couple things off the menu and loved it! I did Uber Eats it, but it arrived in great packaging and still warm. Everything was tasty and fresh; definitely made to order. I want to visit in person because I think it will be 10/10!“

“The owners were friendly and the decor was so cozy, it felt like we were in a K-drama cafe ! We took the sundubue jiggae (tofu stew soup) with the extra seafood and it was sooo flavorful. The menu is short, but the classics are well executed. Will come back !“

“Très bon !! Je recommande 😌“

“I rarely leave reviews but wow I’m impressed with this place. The service was quick and easy (you get a ping when your order is ready) and the place is small and quaint. But that isn’t what impressed me. It was how perfectly balanced the food is.

Usually when I order a bibimbap, it’s mostly rice with some veggies. I don’t eat a lot of carbs so I usually throw the rest away.

But this place uses just the right amount of rice but loads up on veggies. Kale, carrots, black beans, cucumbers. And my gosh the fried onions! Such a perfect mix. Of course, the pork was perfectly marinaded and tender.

5/5 would come back again and again.“

“What a charming cafe we stumbled upon! The Kpop dance studio where my daughter and her friend go to had a photo shoot at a location we've never been to. I was looking for a place to go have a bite and found Allo Daisy. The girls are really into Korean pop culture so were delighted that Allo Daisy was like right down the street! Gimbap and ramyeon was pretty much all they had in the way of a meal, which was good and nicely presented. We all finished with a Bingsoo for dessert, which made a yummy treat, but will have to come back for croffles in the future. The service was very friendly too.“

“The place was very cozy and the food delicious!

The chicken was definitely the star of the show. It was so good that we even ordered a second plate.

As for the staff and customer service, it was excellent.“

“definitely the BEST kimbap / onigiri in town!
Dont mind the big line, you won't wait more than 5 minutes at most. service is incredibly fast, the food is amazing, generous, and cheap.

great afternoon snacks, always a stop when i am in the area. i so wish they had more locations.

the kimbaps are so fresh, you get it and the rice is still a little warm. yummmm! juicy, umami, balanced sweetness, crispy nori.

always very fresh ingredients!

treats for the vegetarians <3“

“La nourriture c’est très délicieuse, le service vraiment vite, et le meilleur service que j’ai trouvé au montreal par Kazuko, Seoha The food is very delicious, the service really fast, and the best service I have found in Montreal by Kazuko, Seoha“

“Got the seafood pancake and the Cheolpan (beef and rice and soup and side appetizers, really worth the price), and they were so fresh and delicious. The beef was tender and the seafood pancake was crazy good. I mean just LOOK at the picture“

“I stopped by to grab something to go. The waitress was absolutely lovely and welcoming, the food was tasty (I had the bibimbap) but one big issue for me is that the portions are tiny. It seems like I could easily eat 2 meals, and that means I don't feel like I am getting my money's worth.

Dear restaurant owner, please increase your portions, I don't mind paying a bit more, but the current price to food ratio is not great. Just having more rice would be a big improvement.“

“Yummy Bingsoo mango /strawberry Great Sunday treat for my girls Friendly and sweet owners Support local NDG business“

“Busy for the good food all the time.“

“Delicious food, good service and a very nice place :)
100% recommended

“Needed lunch when I arrived and Korean sounded delicious. While I personally prefer dolsot bibimbap this was perfectly delivered. Almost went back for dinner a few nights later. Staff was friendly and menu was bilingual (helpful not having to ask for one in English, if needed).“

“A gem in NDG, a small and cozy restaurant. Been here a few times and I have to say this is the BEST Tangsu Pork I’ve tried in the city. I have tried other Chinese and Korean restaurants with similar dishes, but nothing can beat this one. Pork feet was also to die for. Price is reasonable and staff are super friendly and nice. Portions are generous.“

“On adorait le resto à la table. on a donc essayé la livraison aujourd'hui. Les plats sont arrivés froids, pas tièdes ...froids ! J'avais ecrit un commentaire de mettre un plat non épicé, ça n'a pas été fait. et aucun appel pour dire par exemple qu'il n'avait pas un substitution... Très déçue !“

“The combination of Korean fried rice and barbecue chicken made for a perfect harmony of textures and flavors. The dish was not only visually appealing but also satisfying and filling. Whether you’re a fan of Korean cuisine or trying it for the first time, this pairing is sure to impress.“

“I was here on the weekend, the restaurent was completely full of customers. I chose “all you can eat” menu which has a diversity of food. The service was super fast, professional and the food was no doubt, delicious. We were eating, drinking while enjoying the music. What a wonderful atmosphere! Thank you so much “ Mon ami Masson”. I will be back.“

“My friend and I went to have lunch here for the first time. Even though there were mishaps, the owner fixed it and was so nice aboit it. He came to our table. they had outstanding service. the Yuzu mocktail is excellent and so is the okinominyaki and the pork bone soup that comes with rice. everything was delicious“

“This restaurant has to be one of my favorite spots in Montreal! I’ve been multiple times already and it has never disappointed me. It was my first time trying Korean food and it made me fell in love with this cuisine. I absolutely love this place and you should absolutely try it. Service is great! And my recommended dishes are the following: Kimchi chigae, beef bone soup, bulgogi jeongol, dakgalbi with pork and their fried chicken!
You won’t be disappointed!“

“5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It’s a great place“

“Toujours succulent pour un repas express 😁❤️“

“My sister and I were looking for a comfort spot that wasn’t too far away from our hotel. We found this cute little Korean spot with authentic dishes.

We ordered the following:
- Octopus Bibimbap
- Beef Bulgolgi Ssam Bap
- Saewoo Tigim
They also gave us these pickled vegetables as our starters.
Everything tasted really delicious! I especially loved the crispy rice at the bottom of the stone bowl (bibimbap). The bulgolgi was really tender. I really liked wrapping it in a lettuce wrap with rice and ssam. They also gave us some kimchi that we also put into the lettuce wraps. The shrimp was lightly battered with panko. The sauce they served with the shrimp is a wasabi-mayonnaise that was tangy.

Everything tasted very authentic. We noticed that the chefs were both Korean. The customer service was good too. Our food didn’t take too long to arrive.

The space is a little smaller - probably seated around 15 people in total, so make sure to do reservations or go earlier when they open so you get a spot. We were seated at the bar side for our meal. Overall a nice cozy Korean spot for dinner. Definitely would recommend!“

“It was the first time in a month that we ordered food and boy was it satisfying. Arrived hot, spicy and soooo good! Thank you Ganadara! Will order again for sure!“

“I took a Canadian domestic flight from Calgary to Montreal for about 4 hours and ate soybean paste stew and jeyuk gospel at Kosa Korean Restaurant for dinner.The taste reminded me of the taste my parents used to make when I was young.I would like to thank the staff for their kindness, service, and side dish refills.“

“A bit of a disappointing experience.
We ordered truffle fries and boneless honey butter chicken. The fries were not homemade, lukewarm, and tasted nothing like truffle, instead it tasted only pamassan. We told the waiter and they gave us another fries plate, this time pretty hot without truffle flavor but it’s still appreciated. And the honey butter chicken tasted really good with the sauce, just too much crispy with not enough chicken. It’s the second time I visit there, again a bit disappointed. Btw, the dished takes a looooooong time 30 minutes for just fries and 1 hour for the fried chicken and it’s noisy.“

“A two-minute walk from Place St-Henri metro! Exceptional waffles with the texture and crispness of croissants, with delicious whipped cream and fruit... it's very, very good, super fresh and perfect for satisfying your little sweet tooth! ??❤️“

“I was craving chicken wings while walking in downtown Montreal, so I checked Google and found a Korean-owned chicken restaurant. I ordered 2 drumsticks and 6 wings, half coated with their sweet and spicy garlic sauce, and it was the best part. The regular fried chicken wasn’t that great but was very crunchy and served hot. The fries that came with it were also good. The owner was very nice. I’d rate it 9 out of 10 and definitely recommend it.“

“Très bon restaurant! Surtout avec un bon choco-kogo!“
