Delicious, nutritious, and friendly! Stopped by the market for lunch while visiting Saint John on a Saturday and decided on Kim’s Korean, which did not disappoint! I got the Beef Bibimbap, and it was packed with flavor, lots of meat and veggies. The man who took my order was also very friendly!
Great spot, excellent food, super friendly service. Fantastic family owned and operated. Been here several times over the last year. Only place to get Dak-Gang-Jung (Fried chicken with ddukbokki rice cakes in a sweet and spicy sauce) in town.
My family and I were craving a good bibimbap like we've had in Toronto and Montreal. This was a big disappointment. Nothing tastes marinated: the beef was bland , the veggies cut as if for a salad. Not marinated. Bland. The blandness of the ingredients were then submerged in a very large dollop of gojuchang in the middle of the dish. The spice then overwhelmed everything and the dish was uneatable. We threw away 3/4 of each of our dishes. We've never had to do that. We wasted our money. The dumplings were not tasty either. They were warm not hot. They were also very bland. I'm sorry to leave such a negative review. I suggest you take one dish and taste it before buying more for others. Maybe it was just a bad day for the cook. The service was great that's why I gave it one star. We dumped the rest and had dinner elsewhere.
I had a takeout lunch from Kim's Korean Food at Saint John City Market today and it is delicious as usual! It is so authentic Korean food and what a generous portion for $10 plus tax! I got half spicy pork bulgogi and half beef bulgogi special combo! It comes with Korean style potato soup, sweet potato noodle, a piece of spring roll and a piece of pan fried vege. Man! I love this combo since i can sample everything at once! My favorite part of this meal is spicy pork bulgogi and if you love spicy food, you should try it! I can eat this every day!! I recommend this to everyone! Yum!
I've been trying to visit this place and finally I'm around when it's open. The food was delicious and the price are fair! I will definitely be back and can't wait to try more
Definitely one of the best Asian food spots in Saint John! Picture is the Kim’s special and bibimbap - both very delicious and filling! Great meal for $8-$12.
The Ramen is fantastic. Cooked fresh, wonderful flavor. Favorite place to get Ramen in the city.
Had japchae with spicy pork for only $10- they accept credit cards and a lunch special that also looked delicious. There’s two tables with two seats each right in front of their food stall. Most people seem to get take-out and they had the longest line at lunch!
Japchae. Bibimbap. need I say more?
I haven t had dumplings this bad probably ever
I had the special combo, nice combination of different Korean dishes. I have no idea what authentic Korean is, but it came across that way. Dumplings were also very tasty. You can walk outside directly to the eatery where there are several seats.
Great Food
The Dakgangjung is the best thing on the menu! I only love japchae but I think theirs is a little too peppery.
The food was good! If I ever go back to Canada I would certainly come back.
Amazing tasting authentic Korean food. Staff are super friendly and inviting.
Fantastic ramen and dumplings will certainly come back!
Great service great price
If youre unsure of what to get and are hungry, you cant go wrong with anything here.
Good food, decent portions, at an affordable price.
Great food and awesome service! Their ramen with spicy pork is flavourful and filling. We enjoyed the experience very much! I would highly recommend it.
Amazing little gem in the heart of Saint John. Had the gimbap and the mandu. Both were fresh, tasty, and of high quality. Great prices, great services. Would recommend this 110%
Food is no good , go to Asias best cuisine uptown a lot of people around here don t know good food.
Delicious bulgogi. Will get again if I am ever in the area again.
Delicious
The chicken is so goood crispy yet saucy mmmm
I absolutely love this place. The people are very nice smiling. Best Korean food in the city Dietary restrictions: Awesome Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly.
I went yesterday to get 3 lunch specials with half beef/half pork to take back with me. It is perfection - the perfect mix of spicy without overpowering flavour, great basic rice, and the noodles are my favorite. The consistency that the owners have is incredible - it tastes just as good every time! I hate driving uptown but will to get Kims Korean food.
I stopped by during a business trip and was grateful for the kind treatment. The food was also delicious! Very good!
Food is absolutely amazing and it has the right spices and flavour.....one thing I will say is you should ALWAYS check your food as I just grabbed two specials and 1 of them was missing the potato noodles and had no dumpling in the combo either.
Best ramen in the Maritimes
I ordered the Ramen and it was very filling and delicious. They made it very quick and have no complaints!
So fresh and delicious. The food is prepared real fast and is an amazing price. Kim s will always be my first choice for lunch break
Great food and large portions.
Yummy and fast
The best Asian takeout in the city, fast friendly service and amazing dishes.
It was my first time eating Korean food in a long time while living abroad. I had a good time eating it It was nice that the owner and staff were all Korean and welcomed us kindly. Its a delicious taste that Im familiar with as a Korean. Especially the chicken exceeded my expectations
A restaurant where you can feel Korean pride!! I dont usually eat Korean food overseas, but President Kims restaurant was truly delicious. I was a bit surprised to see foreigners lining up to eat Korean ramen, and it was a day where I felt very proud that there was such a successful Korean snack restaurant here. Even if you are Korean, I highly recommend trying it at least once. This is a must-try restaurant for non-Koreans, and locals especially seem to eat a lot of Korean ramen. I enjoyed the chicken gangjeong.
Delicious food cant wait to come back. !!!
Amazing Ramen! Was very excited to visit again after months of having to stay away!
Must have Foods in this city!! Nice and super friendly owner and staffs gave us great favor as well as amazing food. Especially, the spicy pork was excellent to me like spicy lovers. If you are in St. John, Stop by Kims Koreans Food in the City Market!!
Finally made to this place one day after missing it several times. Have tried Korean Food in the US but their menu is awesome. Weve tried everything on the menu but now in love with the Combo. The quality is good, customer service is excellent & pricing is the best. Were now loyal customers for life :)
Nice Korean food place in the Saint John City Market. Our favourite is the Bibimbap.
Cant beat this flavour the such a great price. Thank you Kims!
Good food, friendly service, and great prices. Their ramen is perfect for a foggy uptown lunch date!
Sooo good. Serving traditional popular dishes. Pricing on point, very friendly and gracious owners.
Phenomenal food for the price. Their lunch special is fantastic, especially when they have wonton soup on. They sell a small selection of spices and Korean food next to the till. Im told by people that like kimchi theres is the best
I really hate to be a negative person but when I went, the food was absolutely horrible. I m a foodie myself and have had good, authentic Korean food. This was sad. The meat was dry and tasteless, the rice was beyond plain and the soup was lacking flavour as well. The best thing I ate was the sweet potato noodle salad. I was incredibly disappointed
Great food for the price. Very tasty bibimbap and the people who worked there are very nice! A must if you love korean food
The best Korean food in the city. The Kims Special is superb.
Excellent food and service. Love this place
I ate at Kims Korean Food today for the first time and really enjoyed it. I chose the Kims Lunch Special so I could get a bit of variety and everything in the dish was great. I will certainly back to test some more of their menu. Freindly staff and quick service.
They have a great spicy pork lunch special!
good bibimbab and delicious
Lunch special is always great
The best Korean in town!
This is a favorite stop for lunch. It is always prepared fast and it is very consistent. The service is friendly at the counter and you can pick up a mason jar of kimchi to take home while youre there.
Great food to sit done too. I had a regular spiced noodle bowl, and I will be coming back for the spicy one next time.
