Good portion of food with decent price. I like their tangsuyuk because it’s crunchy and the meat is not too big. Their noodles are good too. I remember they used to have pork belly jjajangmyeon but I think they got rid of it. Not a huge fan of their mala dumplings. It was just mandu with a mala+mayo sauce which is not worth over $10. But most of their food is decent and this is a place I would go to if I’m craving for new fusion Korean Chinese food.

Ordered the jajangmyeon and tangsuyuk! Tangsuyuk was crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. The pork was not over fried nor dry. Good tangy sauce, they had a lot of onion, but no apples or peppers like how many other places do it. Still good though :) the jajangmyeon was more Chinese jajang flavour, different but great, chewy noodles, came with a quail egg and side of pickled radish. Service was fast, and the servers were nice. The restaurant is upstairs of the optical store. Clean and well aerated. Small parking lot in the front with 3 additional spaces in the back I think. Would come back :)

Decent price for the quality of food you get! ✨Noodles ranking: 1️⃣ Seafood white champong - a garlic butter cream soup. 2️⃣ Blackbean sauce noodle 3️⃣ Seafood champong Overall, would love it more if the noodles could be chewier. Not a favourite: Tang Su Yuk, the pork was dry.

The fried eggplant was so crispy and great with some rice - really hard and unique crunch. Pork belly with vinegar had perfect balance between fatty and acidic Cool interior. Feels like a chain restaurant (in a good way). I wish I tried the champong. Extremely affordable, the prices are fantastic.

Great food, friendly staff, and reasonable prices! The deep fried pork belly strips wasn't too greasy and larger than expected portions. Enough to share with more than 4ppl. Staff was great, attentive and friendly. She even offered us free radish refills! Price and taste of the Jajangmyeon was good at 10.99 and filling! The Champoong looks good so I will try that next time.

Pretty good Korean Chinese place! Happy that I tried. Their pork jjamppong was great. Perfectly cooked noodles and nice soup. A bit salty though. Fried eggplant was super tasty. Very crispy and nice sauce. Well balanced! Black bean noodle - tasty but nothing special. Creamy shrimp was interesting. The balance of sweet and salty was great. I enjoyed it. Overall, pretty good. Would come back again.

Noodles and fried pork was too much batter

December 15, 2024

Every time I ordered Jjamppong Gobbae, the soup was too little, so I asked for a little more, but it was always too little..? When I put it in a bowl, the noodles couldnt even be fully submerged in the soup.

Since it was a Jjamppong restaurant, I ordered Jjamppong, and it was clean and delicious. However, there was a little less seafood, the noodles tasted a bit like flour, and it was disappointing that it came out slightly cold. But surprisingly, the dried eggplant was very delicious. The fries were crispy and salty. Good to eat with beer or rice There were quite a few tables (based on weekdays) and customers kept coming in, but the service didnt seem to be good because there was only one server.

Ive been to all the delicious Jjajangmyeon restaurants in Korea. Jjajangmyeon, which is rumored to be eaten in just 6 months, is the best in the world... Jajangmyeon as well as sweet and sour pork are very delicious.

I ordered cream shrimp, black bean noodles, white jjamppong, and cream jjamppong, and they were all delicious! The cream shrimp had an oriental sauce so it had a taste that people liked and disliked, and the cream jjamppong was a more upscale version of the cream jin jjamppong. However, the overall food was so salty that I almost finished eating it, so I got bitten... I dont recommend it to people who dont like salty food... haha.

I had seafood jjamppong and black bean noodles (spicy). The server was friendly. However, aside from the fact that the hair came out of the jjamppong, the taste was very light and there was a subtle metallic taste. This was my first time eating Jjamppong without even a single drink. I was disappointed because the Jajangmyeon had a strong capsaicin taste and had no Jjajang taste. I came here because of the reviews saying it was delicious, but maybe the chef changed or something...I thought I knew why Cream Jjamppong was so delicious.

The taste of the Jjambbong was good, the degree of frying was perfect, and the ingredients seemed to have been kept fresh, so it was a very satisfying dinner! The price was set so that two people could order more than one dish, so it was suitable for eating with a small number of people. Overall, it was kept clean, and the worker had great sense, so he kept checking to see if there were any inconveniences, so there was nothing to regret! Rather than having the taste of a classic Chinese restaurant, it felt like it had a little more personality to it, which made it even more attractive.

Hidden gem near Steels and Yonge Minimal menu items to choose from, but if you looking for a place to drink, fried snacks, and a handful of main noodle dish. this is the place for you. Both seafood noodles and black bean sauce noodles were 5/5 didn t really have high expectations since it felt more like a bar restaurant than a food restaurant. But it ended up giving us SURPRISING US. - great example of never judge a book by its cover Oh my god! The fired chicken was also FLAMES 1. It was SOOOO GOOOD! 2. CRIPSY ON THE OUTSIDE, JUICEY IN THE INSIDE 3. The sauce was the perfect balance between soury spicy and saltiness.

I went there with high expectations because of the good ratings, but I was disappointed because the taste wasnt as good as I expected. To be honest, it tasted like the soup sold in packages at Jjambbong grocery stores. Jajangmyeon and instant lopa taste the same way. Of course, everyones tastes are different, but I dont really want to recommend it.

I ve been there for dinner on May 5th. The food was good, the waitress and manager(owner perhaps) were nice and very kind to change our table to a vacant window seat very quickly. So we reserved a table for 7 at 7:30pm again for Mother s Day. Five of us arrived first and there was only about 30% occupancy. They prepared a table with a hard, narrow, shallow bench for us at the back. As we are all tall and big, and there were several tables available at the windows so I requested to relocate our spot. The waitress tonight(not the one I met on 5th) tried to refuse combining the tables for us even I said I don t mind having a person sitting at one end. She ignored us and made us stood there like idiots until I asked her again. Finally we have seated at a 4 person table waiting for her to pull one more table to our side. When I came out from bathroom my brother and his gf arrived standing beside our table(my brother said they stood there almost 5 mins and the waitress ignored them). Finally we gave up waiting and take the narrow bench seat as the waitress wished. My elderly mom and I felt back pain after sitting on the approx. 12inch deep non-ergonomic bench and needed my 6ft+ 200lbs+ bro to switch seats with us. It was a bad experience for Mother s Day dinner caused by a rude stubborn waitress. Again, the food was good and worth 4+ stars but sadly the waitress ruined our mood.

Never had Korean Chinese fusion before and this honestly was so good. The noodles are so bouncy and chewy and portions were quite big as well. I really liked the creamy seafood champong--it was like carbonara noodle soup. I also recommend the ebi-mayo dish. It comes with these rice krispies scattered around the plate that taste so good in the sauce lol. They should make an appetizer thats just that, if they dont already Everything was delicious, the spicy dishes are actually spicy (at least for me lol eat at your own caution), and although the entrees are probably meant for one person, they were all very shareable, so you can try a lot of items on the menu

Cream Champon - broth thats very creamy, slightly salty and kind of resembles carbonara. Noodles were soft and slightly chewy, and grip the broth well. Had some mussells, squid and lots of onions. Oriental Cucumbers - Crispy hand crushed cucumbers coated in a umami, aromatic and acidic sesame oil vinagarette. Extremely addicting. JajangMyeon - Noodles were on point as it gripped onto the black bean sauce well. Extremely meaty and umami sauce that was addicting as well. Follow @bredgyeats for more food posts!

We grabbed their mapo tofu before for takeaway, it was a bit sweet as it is the Korean version. But this time, we did dine in and had their jjamppong with both the meat and seafood, the tangsuyuk, and the cucumber salad. The service was a bit slow (I think there was only one person) and we were sat at the back so it was a bit harder to get their attention. It took a bit to take our orders, then the food came and the portions are huge. The tangsuyuk was very tasty and had a good ratio of meat. I havent tried meat in jjamppong before but this one is full of flavour. The broth had a nice kick to it and it wasnt too spicy. Id probably try the cream one and jjajang next.

I went there because I heard it was delicious... but the food wasnt particularly delicious (especially the seafood jjamppong) and no matter how busy it was, the servers had no manners as if they were too busy...

Pretty busy for Monday dinner. That is a good sign. Ordered Black bean saucenoodle with pork belly ( $10.99(w/tax) ) which was pretty ordinary, nothing special for jajangmyun. I was hoping to get more wok hey, torched, smoky flavour but I did not get any of that flavour note.,However still not bad for $10.99. Broth for Seafood White Jjamppong($14.99) was fantastic. Was very nice to see generous amount of mini octopus, shrimp, mussles, etc. Broth tasted like between Korean Jjamppong & Japanese Ramen broth but pretty clear broth rather than being cloudy. Huge portion of Yuringi($17.99). This could have been great food to go with beer. We were seated with a table for 2. Once next table left, our wait staff combined 2 small table to make more room for us which was a very attentive service. There were some drunk Korean men patrons who were making loud noise. Other than that very nice decor and atmosphere to dine and have some drinks.

Although Ive never experienced Korean Chinese fusion cuisine previously, the offerings here prove to be exceptionally delicious. The mapo tofu departs from traditional authenticity by adopting a more Korean-inspired approach, where sweetness outshines the numbing sensation commonly associated with the Chinese version. Its undeniably a distinctive yet enticing variation of the classic Chinese dish. Both the sweet and sour pork and the jampong align with the expectations of a high-quality Korean restaurant, delivering flavors as anticipated.

I had a disappointing experience at Poong Moon restaurant. Despite there being an available seat for two, we waited over 10 minutes to be seated. Once seated, we waited another 10 minutes without receiving a menu or water. While it was a weekend and busy, having only one server for the entire restaurant led to a frustrating wait, and we left without even getting a chance to try the food...

Poong Moon is a late night spot that s great for bringing friends, and if you re looking to have some drinks. There aren t many spots at the plaza for parking, but you re able to park your car by the streets at the neighborhood beside (after 5pm on weekdays). I was also thrilled to see they were projecting anime on the wall, and also have a cool manga wallpaper inside the bathrooms. We opted to try their signature Black Bean Sauce noodles, as well as their Beef Champong which you can substitute for rice option instead of noodles. The food took alittle long, around 15 mins to come, but it was definitely worth the wait. The black bean noodles were delicious, and definitely very generous on the sauce - I couldn t stop slurping it down! I was also surprised with the Champong. The soup was very tasty & flavourful, with lots of beef inside, but also surprised to see a good amount of seafood as well. There s also some glass noodles inside, and the texture was just right - not too chewy, but soft enough! We definitely will come back again to try their other Champong and dishes :) IG: Ayeween

I took out Dongpo Pork Rice Bowl and the rice was a complete congee. I heard that this is what happens when you microwave meat that is dry on the outside and has been made for a long time, right? Probably not

I always used to order sweet and sour pork, cream shrimp, and meat jjamppong (very spicy), but I think the taste has changed since summer. I dont know about anything else, but when I always ordered Jjamppong very spicy, they made it so spicy that it hurt my stomach and the soup was really delicious, but since summer, every time I order it, it tastes more like Yukgaejang than Jjamppong.. I havent been back since.

Small but solid spot for jajangmyeon. Their original jajangmyeon is good and average in price with a good portion size. The rest of the menu is significantly pricier in comparison. They seem to be known for the white seafood champong, it had great flavour, lots of umami and theyre generous with the variety of seafood included in the bowl. This is a great spot for a casual lunch, but seating and parking is quite limited.

The seafood noodle soup is amazing, its not a chowder but better! The bean paste noodle wasnt as impressive - the sauce tasted too diluted. Food : 5/5

I went to Poong Moon with my elderly Korean parents recently. Initially I wasn t sure whether we made a right choice given how it looked more like a pub/bar instead of a Korean-Chinese restaurant. But don t look that fool you. The food was outstanding. My parents and I enjoyed it very much. The service was also great as well even though they were really busy. It s too bad that we live in Montreal otherwise we would be here a lot more often.

I used to order it often because of rumors, but since I ordered it a month ago, the price has gone up and the taste has become somewhat lacking. Has the owner changed?

Came here last night for late dinner and it was absolutely delicious. We got the oriental chicken to share (little soy sauce, little oil, chopped peppers, chicken was crispy and the iceberg lettuce was soaked in the sauce so it was great to nibble on), seafood champong, beef white champong and mapo tofu. The tofu was not as spicy as some places but was very fragrant. Seafood champong was good too but the white champong was the winner. Just a hint of smoky fish flavour and it went very good with the noodles they used. Would definitely go again!!

The champong noodles were great! Cream champong is pasta like fusion dish and is one of my favourite dishes here. Their seafood and beef champongs are a classic with the taste of fire . Tang soo yuk is not traditional taste but is still very tasty in their own right. This was my second time here and would def return again.

Re. the food quality, overall experience is not bad, the shrimps with head are not fresh and there are too much onions. The portion is decent. Re. tipping, instead of using the pre-set %, we have the habit to round up the total amount on the bill to its easier for us to track the expenses. For example: $71.35 will round up to $80. Unfortunately, at Poong Moon, our round up # missed their tipping expectation by ~ 1.5%, so the server chased us to ask for at least the difference in tipping. If you have expectation, include the you-are-happy tip in the bill would be a great way to save troubles for both parties. Tipping is customary and is not mandatory. Its your freedom to decide what is most important to you, and we have our freedom to never return and recommend this place to anyone.

Pretty under-rated place! Unfortunately their signature red champong was unavailable because they were not able to source the ingredients from Korea. We ended up ordering their white based soup, the jajangmyeon, and the mapo tofu. The jajangmyeon was excellent, the wife loved it and wished she got that over the white broth soup, which I thought was excellent as well! Everyone agreed that the star of the show was the mapo tofu! The way it was prepared was very Korean in flavouring and made it very distinct from the usual more traditional Chinese style mapo tofus. I do highly recommend this place since they have a small but excellent and very focused menu! Well definitely be coming back!

Ordered jjajangmyeon, seafood champong, and mapo tofu rice. Unlike many great reviews, we were very disappointed by the food. Except for the champong, the jjajangmyeon was underwhelming, and the mapo tofu rice tasted really sweet, so we could not have more than a bite of it. We notified of this to the server, and she did not seem all that concerned other than saying its usually not that sweet. Id rather go for one of the other Korean Chinese restaurants in the area.

Basically tried all the items on their menu and I have to say, they serve hits! Would definitely recommend their cream champong, cucumber salad (addictive!) and their cream shrimp (omg, soo good).

I have lived in Canada for over 20 years and have lived in Vancouver, Toronto, and other small and medium-sized cities. I live in London now. In the meantime, Ive been to all the delicious restaurants... It s the best Chinese food that suits Korean tastes ~ It s even cheap If you dont think about expanding the menu, maintain the taste, and keep the prices slightly affordable, it will continue to be a big hit.

TL;DR: Excellent Korean Chinese fusion place with delightful taste, economic price, and generous portions. The Champpong is now one of my go-to especially in cold weather. The Cream Champpong is light and delicious. There are a generous portion of seafood and I love the chewiness of the noodles (akin to a hybrid of Chinese thick noodle and ramen). I thought the broth would be thicker like the Carbonara sauce found in other Korean dishes, but it is very similar to much lighter sauce from Creamy White Wine Mussels with quite some black pepper (warm and hearty). I also ordered a Mandarin Rolls on the side, the crust has the right amount of crispness. We (group of 4) went in a Friday night and the place is small and quite crowded. Were lucky to be able to walk-in and get a table right away. But I would recommend reservation ahead if youre planning to go for dinner. What truly shocked me is that this place beat my expectations despite the sketchiness. When you grow up with certain cuisines, you get sixth sense to detect red flags from restaurants. This place checks off quite some that I almost skipped this hidden gem, but Im so glad that I havent! Fun fact: The restaurant name Poong Moon sounds like (side door) in Cantonese, which makes up the idiom (heterodoxy/deviation from orthodox standards). A very befitting name for a fusion restaurant :P Parking: Small parking lot in front of the restaurant.

Update: Thanks for making me and my family feel not wanted. 4 adults and 2 kids and they would not seat us even though there was seating available. We even offered to make a 4 people table work but was refused. Two visits to Poong Moon so far and I have yet to be disappointed by anything they have on the menu. My personal favourite is the Beef Champong; a hint of spicyness, the aroma of wok fried veggies, tons of toppings and a flavourful soup base make for a really good bowl of noodles. The Tang Su Yuk is also deep fried perfectly and the is coated in a very gentle sweet and sour sauce. The thinly slice onion pairs very well here. Definitely give them a try :)

4 adults, 1 six year old and a baby. Asked for a table. Host said they do not have a table for 6. There was an empty 4 seat table. Explained the baby can sit on my lap, my kid doesnt take up much room and we can add a seat on the end of the table. Host was firm and said they dont have a table for 6. Felt very unwanted. Embarrassed as I told my in-laws who were visiting from Niagara Falls that this place was great.

1 star for food, but only one good impression was nice waitress on our first & perhaps last visit. Even the main food Chambong was served passing more than half an hour w overcooked veges in thick soup not tasty or fresh at all. It was hardly Korean style seafood or tasty Chambong but could be side dish of alcohol. Blackbean sauce noodle called Jjajang-myun was too sweet no better than Jjajjaroni ramyun sauce. It is unbelievable high stars for the food of this restaurant.

The hot spicy broth paired with the seafood works so well for those cold nights. It s a hidden gem on Yonge and Cummer, has a small cozy space and everything is clean. The servers are so polite and friendly. Nothing gets better than this! Jjampong is around $13.99 for a bowl and Tangsuyuk is $15.99 ish. The tangsuyuk was so crispy and straight hot out if the pan! The sauce tasted sweet and plummy with that hint of sourness. Overall, we paid $25 each (including tip) and it was a great dinner.

At first we thought that they have pretty interesting variety of menu. We quite like the oriental chicken, however the champong was just ok. I thought the beef champong has more flavor than the white version of it. Whats most disappointing for us really was the service. I get that theyre busy but we felt more like an annoyance to the server than a guest. All in all, it was just an ok experience despite interesting menu offering which turned out to be...as well just ok Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is on the second floor and I dont believe there is an elevator.
