The pork bone stew is one of the best meals I've had in a long time. Each of the sides has its own place in this dining experience, but the pork bone stew makes me feel all kinds of good and it deserves more stars. Value for money is through the roof in this unsuspecting, hidden gem.

We had the bulgogi and bone soup. Both were very delicious, and the restaurant's authentic atmosphere was great. The prices were reasonable, and we left feeling full and happy!

Came here for the 1st time and it is worth my money. I ordered small pork bone soup and it was really good! For $12.99 its worth it comes with rice and 4 small apppetizers. Place is small but you won't regret trying.

Got the bibimbap, pork bone soup, rice cakes with hot sauce. Bibimbap and pork bone soup were a solid 3.7/5 only because of portions and taste. I’d say it’s better than owl of Minerva tbh. The atmosphere is also very much similar to a Korean restaurant, quite homely. One big issues I’d say is the rice cakes. There was absolutely no hot sauce and they told us to add bibimbap sauce… that was not tasty.

★★★★★

Amazing food for such an affordable price. The 감자탕/pork bone soup tastes like how my mom used to make it. Its savoury, hearty, and the meat is so tender that it falls off the bones. I highly recommend this cute mom and pop shop to get authentic korean eats!!

★★★★★

The rice cake was so delicious even though the sauce was orange and I’m used to a bright red colour in this dish. But now I don’t want red sauce anymore because I’ve tried this amazing orange sauce. Plus I didn’t have to choose if I want ramen because there was already a perfect amount of ramen. I don’t know why it took me so long to try this place. I’ll definitely be back and try other items on the menu.

Update: visited again and got Combo A for 2 people (same dishes as mentioned below). Bibimpab was steaming hot and tasty. Dumplings are not too salty and seem handmade. You get 2 portions of rice, too, so it becomes a very big meal. The washroom still needs cleaning! June 2023: Bibimpab, dumplings and bulgogi were good! Kimchi - delicious. There is free water and hot green tea. One star off for the washroom - it needs good cleaning.

Small, authentic Korean restaurant in the heart of Kitchener. This café style restaurant may seem a little jarring to people at first, but once you know the rules, its pretty great. First, you get your own tea and water and can get up at any time to go grab condiments, add additional drinks, etc. Other than that, once they order and bring out your food, you left alone to enjoy your food. The food is excellent, fairly priced, the portions are large, and the food is delicious. Parking: Either park on the street across from the restaurant, or in the city lot down the street. Wheelchair accessibility: No accessibility, restaurant is on the second floor of a mini shopping building, no elevator access only stairs.

This is a hole in the wall. I ve taken many friends to this secret gem for over 10 years. The owners are still the same sweet old couple, and the food is delicious!! They re a small mom and pop shop and you self-serve your own drinks and tea but what I really go here for is the Combo A for 2 people. You get 4 side dishes, 3 mains and 2 rice, it is ALOT of food for two, but worth it for $34.99. When I go with more friends I usually just get two of the combo A and get 6 mains. You have to get the Gamjatang, it is SO good! Sometimes my friend and I get 2 gamjatang and another main to share. They also have it in the individual small size for $12.99 or a LARGE (which is really big btw) size for $15.99.

Cute lil ma & pa place. Food was yummy. We got the kalbi and bibimbap. Atmosphere was little run down and outdated, but what do you really expect. I came for the food and it definitely delivered.

Tried this place for the first time and was expecting to actually get to use the grill, however that was not the case. The menu was difficult to understand, and I still have no idea when the grill is supposed to be used, because it wasn t offered during my visit. I scoured the menu trying to figure it out to no avail. The people working there seemed nice but weren t overly helpful with the menu. I ordered one of the combination platters, the kalbi was very good and the chicken teriyaki was also good. The bulgolgi bowl was a bit bland, however. Decor is very dated and isn t overly clean inside, which turned me off from the food a bit. I pictured a hole in the wall place but not quite like this, and this is definitely the oddest Korean barbecue place I ve ever visited.

This has got to be the best, most authentic Korean food in K-W! Its a cute and cozy little hole in the wall, with just Mom and Pop running the kitchen and serving customers. Theres unlimited, serve yourself tea and water, and the food is absolutely delicious! They had an almost full house when we got there, with a constant stream of customers. Very impressed, we will certainly be returning

I came to this restaurant on a Friday night with my family who had come in from out of town. We were a group of five. There were two empty tables that seated four people each, that had not been cleared yet. We waited for someone to serve us but we re ignored. When the owner came, he immediately said no and that they were full even though a chair could easily be added to one of the tables for 4. I would have loved to try the food here but unfortunately was turned away at the door.

Amazing and wholesome family-run Korean restaurant. The food is great. I can tell that they use authentic home made Korean recipes, especially with their bulgogi, seafood pancakes, and noodle dishes (which I definitely recommend!) Service is extremely nice, a family run business that is very willing to greet you and talk with you. Their prices are amazing! I recommend coming in a group of 3 or more to take advantage of their combo deals which give you a mountain of food amounting to less than $15-20/person. The price really sells this place as an affordable and authentic deal.

The owner is nice, will chat with you and tell you that your home made bulgogi can t be as good as theirs because one just do not have the right spices to make it correctly :) it was a wonderful warm experience and will be frequented by us on a cold day.

What an incredible meal I just had from here. Every bite was bursting with flavour! I can t believe I haven t tried this place until now. It will be in my regular rotation for sure. We had the three dish combo and we had the beef bulgolgi, ribs, and chicken teriyaki with 4 sides and rice. The ribs were to die for! Everything was so delish I can t wait to try other dishes. There was nothing we didn t like. Thank you so much

Big fan of the amazing food they serve here. Excellent and friendly service too. My family and I usually have the combination dinner and pick our mains. I have had everything on the menu here, I cannot pick a favorite as I find it all delicious. Try it, I bet you will love it like I do.
