Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu is one of those cozy, no-frills gems that never disappoints. My fiancée and I went on a Wednesday evening, and it was as bustling as ever—a testament to how popular this place is. It’s one of her absolute favorite restaurants, especially for the tofu soup, which she always raves about. She ordered her usual, and I opted for the rice and bulgogi combo. The bulgogi was tender, flavorful, and perfectly marinated, and the rice was served hot and fluffy. The service was efficient and attentive, even though the restaurant was busy. Our dishes arrived quickly, and the servers were friendly, regularly checking in to refill side dishes and ensure everything was okay. Speaking of the side dishes, they’re simple but excellent, especially the kimchi and the bean sprouts—classic staples that complement the main dishes beautifully. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with that classic Korean eatery vibe—casual, welcoming, and perfect for both regulars and first-timers. Whether you’re here for a comforting bowl of tofu soup or trying the other dishes like I did, you can’t go wrong. My fiancée says it’s a must-visit, and now I see why. We’ll definitely be back!

We recently visited this Korean restaurant, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, with a standout being the hot stone rice—perfectly cooked, flavorful, and a delightful mix of textures. It truly felt authentic and comforting. What made the experience even better was the wonderful and friendly customer service. The staff was attentive, welcoming, and always ready to answer questions or make recommendations. They went out of their way to ensure every customer felt valued and taken care of. Overall, this restaurant combines great food with exceptional service, making it a must-visit for anyone craving Korean cuisine. Highly recommended!

We ate at this location a number of times and each time the quality of food and service was great. The spice levels matches with our expectations. The owner/manager is very attentive even during busy times and the service from the staff is also good. For example, a staff offered me an apron when I was wearing light coloured clothing, which I thought was caring of them. In particular, I wanted to mention a time when I forgot my phone at the restaurant, and though it was passed closing time, the owner/manager waited for me to come back to pick it up. I really appreciate it!

My go-to place for warm Korean tofu soup. We usually go to be one in downtown Toronto but this place has parking! Truly wonderful. In any case, you can expect the same flavor of soup. The seafood was still as we remembered, as were the side dishes. They also offered pork bone soup and while the meat was soft and delicious, the soup was on the saltier side. Finally, this may be a plus for some but this store doesn't scoop the rice and pour water into the stone pot for you, like in the other chain. Here you can choose not to do so if you want to enjoy the crispy rice on the bottom layer.

Love the pork bone soup here! The broth isn't very special, but still good and flavourful. The pork is very tender, and the portion is very generous! I felt like I had too much pork, which is rare, especially when it tastes that good. Just wish the dish had potatoes in it. I also really like the stone bowl purple rice that comes with it. The staff are friendly too, so it's an all-around solid experience that is worth returning for!

This is our new favourite Korean dine in spot ! The owner’s nephew was super friendly and patient with us. My daughter loved their Korean pork bone soup (mild). The stoned rice really hit the spot. I personally don’t like stoned rice because of the crust. This place totally changed my mind… my daughter and I cannot get enough of it ! She finished everything! The bulgogi was tender and juicy. The only thing I think they should work on is their side dishes. It’s all on the salty side but might be good for those who don’t want to eat too much sugar. We cannot wait to go back!

Came here for Christmas and had their spicy honey korean fried chicken and they were very good! The ratio of sauce to chicken was great, the chicken was nicely crispy and the sauce was just the right amount of spiciness and sweetiness. Their soon tofu is standard and is always consistent. The only thing was the beef with rice my partner ordered was meagre in portion and i expected a little more beef for the price we paid. This location has more comfortable seating than the north york (finch) location although it sits less.

**2024 Update** We came here again this time with family for dinner and again the the food was amazing...some foods just fill your soul and this joint is a place like this. The owner was very hospitable and the ambience was decent. Would definitely recommend. We came here to try Korean Cuisine and I was pleasantly surprised. We tried the Vegetable Soon Tofu and loved it. Would want to try the other Meat dishes as well if Halal options are made available. The service was amazing with Patio also available. Definitely recommend and would definitely try again. Please like my review if you find it helpful. Vegetarian options: Not many veg options, having Veggie fried rice for Vegetarians surely bring in more people to try Korean. Parking: Its a big mall so parking is ample. Wheelchair accessibility: It has wheelchair accesibility.

Large parking lot. Kid-friendliness: Staff was especially good in accommodating families with young children. Wheelchair accessibility: Two large doors that could fit any size wheelchair. Theyll move tables and chairs to accommodate you

It tastes really bad. If you want to eat this, you should go to the one on Yonge Street. The last time I went to this place, it was almost closing, and the store owner said you should hurry up and order. After that, I drank a few sips and stopped drinking. It tasted so bad that it exploded inside. There are mussels, but there was none last time. The soup was extremely salty and the rice was so hard that it was really unpalatable.

My food in the take out bag was sliding everywhere in the car. Packaging was unsustainable. Also found 2 out of 3 of the mussels were still closed in. When it comes to seafood soup, it should be a priority to make sure all seafoods in the soup are edible. The soup was not smooth, it had a thick like consistency as if they just loaded the gouchujang powder into the soup.

This is a go-to spot for my friends and I after a long day s work. Their snow cheese chicken wings are definitely worth trying. Their spicy chart is accurate. Mild is very mild, and regular is what an Asian regular should be. And extreme is just asking for a night on the toilet. The portions are good too. Honest and hard working owners.

Hands down the best soon tofu I have ever eaten. Portion size is great. Nice that they have different spice levels to choose from if you are not somebody who handles spice. But I went with the regular spice combination soon tofu which was perfect. Rice being served in hot stone pot was pretty cool and made for very nice textures, especially the crispy bits stuck to the sides.

Ordered the pork bone and potato soup .No potatoes in the soup and the broth was kind of on the bland side.Ive been to many Korean restaurants in the city and just based on the soup I have to say its a miss.Service was good and the atmosphere was nice.Price for what you get is high in my opinion. Would I come back gotta give it a big fat no.

Decent Korean restaurant located on Sheppard. Food tastes good, but portions are smaller compared to other Korean restaurants. Menu is also limited, with mostly rice options - no noodles.

First time here and I was very impressed. Love the cleanliness and the space. Of course the food is the star. I ordered the beef and seafood soon tofu - you can specify your spice level so you don t have to worry if you can t handle the heat. I ordered medium spice and it was perfect for me. Also really loved how the rice came in a sizzling bowl because that crust that develops is delish. All in all I was very pleased and will definitely go again. Price was on point.

Good soondooboo but the gamjatang had a bit of that freezer burn flavor that is common at Korean restaurants. Served with rice in hot stone bowls. Leave the rice for a bit to create the roasted rice called noo-roong-ji and then pour in the tea to create a nice umami chaser once you re done.

We were looking for Korean restaurant open on Jan 2 and came across this restaurant. The restaurant was relatively busy and lots of tables had dishes not collected. It looks like they understaffed today. We ordered #1 combination Soon tofu (beef, shrimp, mussel) $15.95 served with purple rice in hot stone pot rice. #11 Pork bone potato soup with hot stone pot rice $16.95. Fried chicken wings (6 pc) $14. The soups were tasty and served bubbling hot. The hot stone rice had crispy crusty rice, but we felt the serving was not enough. My combination Soon Tofu had a spicy broth even though I asked for mild. There was lots of tofu, small slices of beef, 3 pcs of mussels, and 1 tiny little shrimp. The portion size was underwhelming, although i did enjoy the savoury broth. My wife had the pork bone soup with 2 large meaty pieces of pork bone and bean sprouts on top. I didnt see any potatoes in the soup. The soy garlic chicken wings were crispy and juicy with a sort of sweet and savoury sauce. The sauce looked very watery, but we enjoyed the wings. Overall, the bill came up to $53 taxes included which is very steep for just 2 bowls of soup and 6 chicken wings. Although the food didnt disappoint, it left us wanting more. The banchan was only baked beans, pickled turnip, and kimchi. Nothing stands out here. The menu is very simple and lacks options. There are a few rice dishes like bulgogi, spicy pork, and squid. If youre looking for a variety of Soon Tofu soups, then give this place a try. This place did not hit the right spot from a value to price ratio. With a limited menu, I wont be coming back.

December 22, 2023

My first time visiting after a friend recommended and had high hopes. Staff is very kind and welcoming which is a huge plus, however we did have to ask for a server to take our order after sitting for 15 min. I guess they were busy that evening. Atmosphere is nice, but some tables too close together. We did not receive any banchan, only water. Neither did the table beside us. A small order of sweet and sour boneless fried chicken was a steep $14 for 6-8 tiny pieces. Disappointing so would not order that again. The beef and dumpling soondubu was good but I ve had better at other restaurants for the price. The bibimbap was also a very small portion for a steep $18 considering it was mostly rice. I think they would do better if they lowered the prices slightly or had bigger portions. I m undecided on whether I would return when there are other more reasonably priced Korean food options within a relatively short driving distance.

December 22, 2023

Cant recall the last time Ive been so disappointed in ordering food and feeling so ripped off. The boneless fried chicken is criminally expensive for the portion size. At $14 you get 5 tiny pieces of chicken in a small container. Made the huge mistake of ordering 6 for takeout for a party and the total was $95 with tax. All the guests we had over for the dinner were shocked at how much this was for so little food. I notice there are similar complaint in a number of reviews.

I ordered a couple dishes for takeout (soon tofu, fried chicken, pork bone) which were all proper sizes, but this blazing fire chicken dish was $16 and it was the size of an appetizer. Not sure if the picture does this justice, but the container is 1/3 full.

Food was good. However, waited 50 minutes for our food to arrive. Was told 40 minutes in that they forgot our order. Chicken is a rip off it was $14 for such a small portion. Look at the picture. Again, my pork bone soup was pretty ok and the chicken was ok but the service was bad and the price was unjustified. At least offer something for free or offer a slight discount for the mess up.

They messed up our order and we ended up waiting more than 40 min for the food. The small portion of boneless chicken was sad looking for $14, so not worth it. I got the seafood soontofu and the taste was okay, in the past it used it be around $12 and now it is $16. The seafood pieces are very small, i just feel like they charge wayyy too much for the quality they serve. They did apologize for making us wait but more couldve been done imo...idk if i would come back again.

I ate ham and cheese soft tofu stew and sweet and sour dumplings, and I was very satisfied! I was especially happy because the fried dumplings were crispy and the seasoning was similar to seasoned chicken sauce, which was exactly what I was looking for. The sausage in the ham and cheese soft tofu stew tastes a bit like Chinese spices, so it might be a good idea to keep this in mind. Im sensitive to scents, but it didnt really bother me! The staff was very friendly and I felt good having a hearty meal :)

First time ordering from this restaurant. Won t be my last. Reviews were good so thought to give it a try as it is close to my place. Ordered the Special #5 [2 tofu soup bowls (each comes with a bowl of rice), 6 chicken wings, box of boneless snowing chicken, box of 6 beef dumplings]. Soup was very tasty. Both of us ordered medium heat and was happy we didn t get hotter. I had the combination tofu soup - came with one small shrimp and two mussels and quite a bit of beef. Spouse had the kimchi tofu soup which he enjoyed. Came with an egg in the middle. He did comment that he did not quite like the taste of the condiment kimchi that came on the side. The boneless snowing cheese fried chicken was so tasty and sweet! Loved it! Fried chicken wings were really good. Nice and crunchy, moist inside. Beef dumplings were nice too. Two of us could not finish this meal, will be good to share with my son next time. Pickup was ready and waiting in 15 mins. Great service. Just a bit of difficulty putting in order over the phone due to language but we got by. No biggie. Had tried to order online but if you need to specify what soups you want and spiciness, instructions are in Korean, so had to call in. Definitely will return. Great taste, great service.

Came a little less than an hour before close so maybe that had something to do with it, but we felt it wasnt as good as the other BCD we had at Yonge-Finch. Got the same thing and same spice level and felt the soup had a bit less flavor here. Still good though. Another difference was that here, they dont scoop your rice for you, and dont add water to the scorched rice bowl after scooping it out, like they do at Yonge-finch. You have to do it yourself if you want to eat it that way. Parking: Plenty of parking spots available

We came here for dinner and was impressed. The staffs here were so kind, the service was good, the place was clean, and the food was delicious. We got the bibimbap and sweet and sour fried chicken (bone in.) The bibimbap was great, we really like their bibimbap gochujang sauce (not all places make it right.) They gave little sides which were pretty good with the meal. Also, if you like your kimchi a little fermented (a little sour) they have it, I personally like It better then the same day made kimchi. The fried chicken was also very good. Overall, good experience and would come back.

We went on a Sunday evening and it was not very busy at that time. We picked this restaurant because the reviews are good and the location is very convenient. However, the first thing that really turned off my appetite was the dirty window sill we were sitting next to. It was dusty and had two dead bugs on it. Next, the side dishes were very underwhelming. And there was even a tiny piece of metal scrap in it. I believe it came off from the brushes used to clean the utensils. The owner apologized and quickly gave us a new one. But still, the side dishes were very disappointing and tasted like store bought rather than made in a Korean kitchen. The main dishes were okay. Nothing particularly stands out. Overall, I will not visit again. Parking: Mall parking.

It has the smallest shrimp and oyster in there that I ever saw,smaller than a small spoon....... pretty sure korean people eat bigger shrimp in korea

Ive been to some of the other locations for this restaurant but I think this one is by far my favorite. The staff were incredibly friendly, and were in very good spirits which made the whole restaurant seem a lot more cozy and happy. Changed it up a bit this time and ordered the Korean fried chicken, which was honestly quite good but could have used a little bit more seasoning. The location itself is nice and not in a super busy area, at least not during the evenings. I would 100% recommend going here, its so nice!

Their waitresses don t speak English and bring the wrong food. The manager has extremely bad attitude when solving the problem. They only welcome Korean people. If you are not a Korean, don t come. The food tastes terrible anyways. Will not come ever again. Not recommended!!!

What an absolutely wonderful little hidden gem of a restaurant! The food was amazing, so fresh and delicious.

We will be coming back here again and again!

This is a takeout review. In my opinion, dine in is the way to go. This is my first time doing a take out and the food was a let down. Without the stone bowl, the soup was not hot, the rice was mushy, and the sides were missing the sweet beans. Everything just felt off.

Excellent, tasty food. One of the best kimchi chigae that Ive had in a long time and Ive had my fair share of Korean food at Yonge/Finch & Christie. Rice is fresh, and you can taste the sweetness of the rice grain. Great service as well. Overall a great meal experience. Highly recommended.

Ordered the kimchi/tofu/pork combo tofu was one of the softest Ive ever eaten but a bit too much of it compared to the kimchi and pork....there are items with only tofu so I would have liked a more equal balance. I also had it ordered at a medium spice(not regular spice) and it was a bit too spicy since it was only the second level. Service was great, they provide you with a stone pot rice that you can eat a smokey flavored rice that helps digestion (I believe)( at least I felt that way) overall nice place, my companion ordered pork bone soup and I believe that was a 5/5 dish!

Honestly, I ve had food experience like that. I was hanging out with my friends and they mentioned this restaurant is one of the best so I decided to give it a try. No words. When i tried the soup I fell in love with it right away, I also ordered chicken and it was just incredible: crispy and not grease. True korean chicken. I wanted to keep eating non stop. The staff was so so so friendly and the place so well decorated, I actually got to know about products from a brand called Atomy. I love everything about this place, will def come back!

Deliciously spicy, Bukchang-dong soft tofu! Happy to have delicious soft tofu after a long time~ The chicken doesnt have any dryness, perhaps because the oil is clean. Even though the soft tofu was sold out, I ate it all haha!

December 22, 2022

this was my usual spot to go eat my Korean foods, but this time when I ordered delivery for my dinner, The quality of the rice and soup were bad. I know I ordered almost closing but if they were not sure about the quality of foods because its end of the day, they should ve just cancelled my order. The 2 out of 3 rice was just like leftover rice(since they use purple rice it s very easy to tell because the colour change depends on how fresh it is)smelled and texture was NOT ok, also the soups were not fully cooked extremely watery and nothing inside had flavour. I could really tell they rushed it. I liked the people who work there because they are so nice when you dine in, I couldnt believe they sent these out with thinking that is ok.... The minute I received the order I called the restaurant just make a complain, they were already close. Sigh.

Food was delicious, owner/server was super friendly and actually asked how our food was. Wish all Korean restaurant would do that. Nothing to complain about. Will definitely be returning again. Oh and for all the bad delivery reviews, this type of Korean food should be eaten at the restaurant for best experience. I would never order a steak dinner for delivery from the KEG. Get my drift?

One of my top choices for a winter warm up meal. My go to is the seafood soon tofu. Love the broth and flavour of this dish. I will finish all the rice to get to the crispy bits on the bottom of the stone bowl. They have a fried chicken wing that have this classic fried flavour to it. A perfect addition to the main dish.
