“Très bon !! Je recommande 😌“

“Most hilarious time of my life. First try with a friend, side dishes are amazing we loved it and had to refill 3 times 💜 had hard time cutting the meat and a server had to stop and cut it for me without me asking... we were hopeless😅😅😅thank you for the super service and another lady server answered all our questions about the meats helpful and really nice lady👌im going back for sure!“

“It's great to stop by when you're craving Korean food. Tofu kimchi and cold noodles are really delicious!!!! The other dishes are above average, but the green onion pancakes are a bit thick~~ haha.

Kid-friendliness: There are many foods that children like. There is a baby chair.“

“Needed a quick lunch near campus and a friend recommended this Korean restaurant. Having lived in Seoul, I can say the bibimbap really hit the spot! The portions are generous for the price, and it even comes with a miso soup. The ordering system is super efficient, you order on a digital screen, and about 10 minutes later your name is called to pick up your food. Everything was fresh, fast, and tasty. I’ve already been back to try their soup, and it was just as delicious. Definitely a new go-to spot!“

“If you’re looking for an authentic Korean restaurant in Montreal, this is a great option. It’s located right in Chinatown, so it’s quite easy to find and accessible by metro. The menu is diverse, featuring traditional Korean dishes like bibimbap and tempura. Prices are reasonable, and the owner and staff are very friendly.“

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

“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!“

“Je ne comprends pas pourquoi un restaurant aussi merveilleux a une note de seulement 4,4 points ? La nourriture est super délicieuse. Les limonades aux pamplemousses et aux citrons sont excellentes et naturelles. Le service est excellent. Les tables, le sol et les toilettes sont propres. Ça laisse une très bonne impression. L'ambiance et la musique sont sympas. Les prix sont abordables.“

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

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

“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!“

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

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

“That was the best udon I’ve had! I really enjoyed the flavor and the pairing with zucchini and mushrooms. We really enjoyed the ramen but the beef bulgogi was pretty mediocre. The service was fast and they let us order even though the restaurant was about to close.“

“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!“

“très bon plats bonne qualité et très bon service“

“This place is so cozy! The food is fresh and flavorful, and the service was perfect. The server even showed me how to use chopsticks and the proper way to eat everything 🥹. It was my first time trying Korean food, so I can't compare it to others, but it was really good! I had the kimchi, tteokbokki, and vegetarian kimbap—$20 for all that is a great deal! Plus, the service was super fast! Will definitely come back!“

“Excellent lightly battered, crunchy, juicy chicken thighs, covered with their delicious sweet garliky and a little spicy sauce!!
It's to die for!!!!
Bulgogi is also an excellent choice, very tasty and well cooked meat.
The quality of their food is worth the price.
The owner are very pleasant and polite and patiently explain their menu.
It's a family run business, they truly care about the food they prepare and it shows.
Please support them, you won't regret it!!!!!“

“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!“

“Très bon !! Je recommande 😌“

“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 !“

“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!“

“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“

“It was a last-minute solo lunch after working with a client. I ordered the Bimbimbap with fried tofu and it was scrumptious. I understood why this place had such a high rating.

Vegetarian options: There were several veggie options made with tofu. 😊“

“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“

“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 !“

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

“Second time coming here and I couldn’t wait to get the fried calamari and the Gyudon ribeye steak dish again. It was fire the first time and it did not disappoint this time either. Pricey but worth the price.

Recommended!“

“Busy for the good food all the time.“

“Amazing food and service! We love Mate Latte ☕️🥙🥢♥️!!!“

“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“

“Awesome spot for Korean fried chicken. The ambiance was also dark and moody which we loved. We got the Korean army stew (Budae Jjigae), classic boneless fried chicken with the red sauce, and truffle fries. We loved the experience and would definitely go back to try more“

“Excellent service. The menu has changed because the administration hasn't been the same since the pandemic. They made a mistake in my telephone order. When I reported it they made the order I wanted but still gave me the first one so I could discover the menu without paying. The gentleman was really courteous and professional. And my meal was very good. I will go back“

“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.“

“The bibimbap with beef bulgogi was DELICIOUS and probably better than any bibimbap I've had in Toronto. I would come back for this dish any day! The service wasn't super fast but I don't think that's a bad thing because why is everyone in a rush anyway.“

“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“

“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.“

“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!“

“Without a doubt my favorite fast food place in downtown Montreal. Everything is packed with flavor and absolutely amazing. I just wish they were opened more hours, but that's an issue of the train station they are located in and not the restaurant's fault. Worth making the time to show up when they are opened though because MMMMM! That Koreon BBQ Chicken is to DIE for.“

“Toujours succulent pour un repas express 😁❤️“

“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! ??❤️“

“It was extremely good! The Korean kogo was hot, delicious and cheesy (yum). It was my first time and I was not disappointed. The lady took note of my allergies and reassured me by giving me the list of ingredients so that I didn't worry :)“

“Toujours succulent pour un repas express 😁❤️“

“Amazing authentic restaurant: 5☆ food that will give you the best Korean culinary experience! The staff is super kind and warm, which makes the resto atmosphere perfect! Really recommend it ❤️“

“Surprisingly good food , fast service, nice atmosphere“

“Well, we rarely give reviews to the restaurants we (my girlfriend and me) go to cause they mostly don’t meet our expectations and make us disappointed, I’d like to share that the chicken here is the best we’ve tried overall in town recently.

The service was excellent, the chicken was really fresh, crispy, and savoury, the sauce (the second most spicy garlic soy) was actually spicy and tasted like gochujang paste, and the portions were really generous and accompanied by really good fries. We recommend the coated version better than the plain one since the chicken alone is mildly seasoned (which is good it you prefer a neutral profile flavour).

My go to is the boneless combo with the garlic soy sauce.“

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

“Been going to Maison Bulgogi since 2009—it’s hands down my go-to Korean restaurant in Montreal. It’s not trying to be anything it’s not: just honest, hearty, home-style Korean food that hits the spot every time.

Whenever I feel a sniffle coming on, I run straight there for their healing ginseng chicken broth.

When I’m feeling good, I always go for the dolsot bibimbap, fried kimchi rice, or seafood pajun—comfort food perfection! Their banchan are consistently top tier—the mung bean sprouts, potatoes, and kimchi are especially excellent.

The free tea is a nice touch, and the service has always been kind and efficient. A true gem.“
