The side dishes and soup were very flavourful and delicious! The side dishes were very yummy. The atmosphere and service was excellent. Would come again, especially for the lunch specials!
Service is polite, atmosphere is cozy vibes, not meant for young drinking vibes. Side dishes are a little below average. Donkatsu is hella dry, kkanpungi is beyond soggy and all dough..literally had a good 5-minute brain fart trying to figure out where the chicken was inside; at least 4 pieces were all 90% dough. As for the complementary dumpling event, dumplings were a very stale type of crunchy…
Today we ordered pork bone and spicy dbuk cheese dakkalbi along with other items. Chicken dbuk wasn’t as moist. Over all it was still decent in flavors for both. Free dumplings with a review! Last time I had the all you can eat bbq but they gave too much bulgogi for two people which we didn’t get to reorder more or the other meats. Other than the Ayce bbq, there are lots of other options. I appreciate that they give side dishes. It’s spacious and has lots of seating. They also have a few high chairs for the kiddies. Today, the first server tried to talk our order but we were a bit indecisive for the last bit and she walked away to help the other table beside us. She came back and took our order but suddenly left again to do something which left me confuse if we even finished ordering. She came back again to repeat our order and we requested a high chair, which never came until a little later when food started coming out. We had to go up to the front to request for bowls. There was only 2 Tables including us. Second server came in a bit after and was a lot more attentive. The past time, the servers were actually more attentive so maybe it was just this one off?
Went here yesterday with some friends for the all you can eat Korean BBQ and I can tell you this place is amazing! I went with five other guys and we eat a lot and cleaned this place out lol 😭 It’s not an overly huge place but it was able to accommodate us. The waiters were so nice and even when we just kept asking for more food, they just kept bringing it, although I’m sure they were saying in the back “wow these guys are some fat Americans 😂”. You have to cool the meat yourself and they bring it to you and it is already marinated. Depening on what you order it may be cut up, but not always. They give you meat scissors and tongs as well. No regular utensils, just these thin metal chopsticks so I definitely make sure you know how to use them. The food was great and so was the service. I would definitely come back to this place again and recommend it to anybody interested as well. They don’t have a parking lot of their own either but that is common for the area.
They have a big menu and everything looks delicious! I ordered the spicy squid and beef with rice. It had some toughness on some beef but the sauce was good. Also a large portion. Staff very nice. I will come back to try more dishes!
Me and my friends discovered this Korean restaurant while strolling through the Chinatown area. We arrived before 11 a.m., and although the staff informed us that they would start taking orders at 11 a.m. since they open at that time, they were accommodating and asked us to wait at a table while they provided us with the menu. The service was attentive, and the food was quite enjoyable. One nice touch is that you are served complimentary tea, and a variety of side dishes are provided once you place your order. The menu offers a wide selection, including options for groups, which is great for sharing. The dishes are straightforward and authentic—what you see is what you get. Additionally, the prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of food provided.
We liked this restaurant a lot. In an adjacent street to Spadina easy to find, you get a widespread range of authentical Korean dishes. They were made excellently to the point, well spiced and aromatic. The portions were sized generously. The service was quick, attentive and very friendly. Will come again with a smile on our face.
It was our first time here and we loved our super delicious lunch! Excellent service too from Eunbyeol who was so friendly and happy. I would have given the food full stars but my Bibimbap didn't have a sunny side up egg, it was easy over which takes away the nice yellow yolk colour that I love. I had to cut the egg to let the yolk show through for the photo. Still highly recommend eating here!
Best restaurant I have tried in Chinatown! The atmosphere is really good and the servers are really nice! Highly recommend!
The food was very good and the servers were very kind. I definitely recommend this place!
Ever since my friends told me about this restaurant, I haven t tried anywhere else because it is that good. The price is cheaper than most places in the GTA and the quality is top-notch.
Definitely would recommend! I ordered the spicy pork plate and did not regret it. One of the best Korean food Ive had in Toronto and very reasonably priced for the big portions. The waiter/owner was also very kind and attentive, even when the restaurant was packed.
Food is really nice ..

The food is amazing and the vibe is great
Hello, I am a person who has been in Canada for about 2 years. For the two years I lived there, I tended to get my meals at restaurants, but for the first time, I felt that the service was really good. I had unlimited refills of meat, and they told me so much that I didnt have any more questions, and they came first to talk to me. In particular, my mother, who had glasses and short hair, was really helpful. Of course, its the best among snacks. It felt like I was receiving service from a restaurant that costs 200,000 won per person, and it was a great feeling. I felt a lot of things when I saw a person working with a sense of ownership. If I were the boss, this person would pay $30 per hour. Even if I received it, it wasnt enough.
The food is so tasty and it s always one of my favourite places to dine in the winter!
A total of 8 of us dined in late at night after drinking. There was only 1 sever working but she was so kind! She gave complementary miso (so cold out) and refilled our side dishes. We were able to split the bill. Bibimbap and Kimchi was tasty! Homey service, would visit again :)
Really good spicy chicken dupbap, my friends loved the bibimbap. I would recommend.
Fresh and authentic Korean food! 100% recommend!
Amazing food and service! Very clean, highly suggest eating here for some quick korean food.

Great service
Me and my partner have been coming to eat here for a little over a year at this point, and we still get so excited when we come. The food and atmosphere is amazing, and its a great place to eat, and overall to have a good time. The staff is very friendly, and patient, and service is great. The food doesnt take a ridiculously long time to come out, and prices are reasonable for downtown Toronto. I highly recommend for anyone who enjoys korean food.
The food especially the soups are really good. Highly recommend
Lunch date with my boyfriend. Such a great cute casual spot to go!
Awesome
Been going here for 4 years and it s amazing everytime!!
Great spot for a late meal.
This is truly delicious! The meat is very generous, and the mackerel we ordered with it is also very tasty. I think the price is very reasonable as well.
Love the restaurant! Food is always good and we come here all the time in the summer. Even better to have the pork bone soup in the winter!

Yummy foods and great service
Authentic food - our meals were so hot and tasty! Great staff and service as well. Will return!
Their pork bone soup is amazing
Well, I guess it was my fault for not going to a traditional Chinese restaurant. Jjajangmyeon really shouldnt be on the menu. I think its a processed food. The noodles have a very strong smell of flour, and the noodles themselves are similar to kalguksu (noodles), so dont think of Korean jjajang. Should sweet and sour pork be called processed food flavored soy sauce sweet and sour pork? This is not the dipping sauce that Koreans know. I dont know about other Korean dishes, but On my first visit, Jjajangmyeon Sweet and Sour Pork was on the menu, so I looked at Google Maps. I came here but was very disappointed. The side dishes were okay. The service staff are very friendly. Five stars.
Great soup! Great dinning experience. Food
The food is amazing. This is a must-go place for Korean foodie

I had an incredible meal at Biwon Korean Restaurant in Toronto! The tteokbokki was perfectly spicy and chewy, and the gamjatang was rich, savory, and comforting. The side dishes were fresh and full of flavor, complementing everything perfectly. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Korean food!
Excellent restaurant and best waiter ever !!
Nice and cozy place, good place to hang out at weekend. Will come back again
Cute little spot for Korean dishes for whenever you are craving something delicious. Tried a variety of dishes off the menu and everything was soo tasty, we finished it all and forgot to take photos to show for it. Great place to try, so why not stop by? You ll love it.
I came here on the recommendation of a Korean friend and it was so delicious!!! The service is good and the staff are friendly!

I ve recently become a fan of this restaurant! Food is great and the waitress (lady with short, black hair) is very kind <3
Great service, and amazing food too

Friendly service
Love the variety of side dishes and the service is friendly
Great service and the food is so fantastic...
Great kalbi bento at a good price, especially at lunch!
The sheer variety of menu items at this restaurant borderlines absurd. I have been here several times and the food can range from being very good to okay. This is also reflective in the pricing, as it can range from being very reasonable to being kind of pricey. That being said, overall my experiences at BIWON lean positive. This time I opted for the Jiajangmyeon and it was good. Everything tasted fresh. Also the portion size leaned on the larger side. A prime selling point of this establishment is the location. Its a couple minutes walking distances from AGO and is basically smack-dab in Chinatown. If you are in the area and need a quick fix for Korean food, this will do you justice. I also personally like taking medium sized parties here because even though it looks small on the outside, it can support a large amount of people.
Great and authentic Korean food.
Amazing food, very authentic. I loved the chicken khimchi soup. Super friendly hostess, very welcoming even though I was solo at lunch time. Not very fancy looking from outside but do step in, you wont regret it.
The service and staff was exceptional. The food was reasonable for the price. For sure hidden gem place to eat
Great service and awesome bbq
The foo was so good and the service was immaculate
