It was a nice surprise finding this authentic Korean restaurant. Everything we tasted was good, including the fry chicken and zhajiang noodles.

Tasty food. Best FRESH black bean noodles here. Love the wok flavor. Everything we tried was delicious. Their mapo tofu is very good as well as their deep fried sweet and spicy chicken. Check this place out. Absolutely delicious and fresh tasting food with friendly service.

My mom quite enjoyed her seafood rice. I enjoyed the flavor of my noodles as well however the amount of "pork" or "shrimp" was slim to none. That was disappointing.. If you can't even point out the main protein in the dish it's way too small.

I went here with my Korean friend and we got a combo of spicy chicken soup and jjajangmyeon and another chicken dish. It was really satisfying. My friend ordered for me so that is why I am giving it 4 stars for the food. I think I could’ve enjoyed it more if it was another dish but it was satisfying nonetheless. The portions were also quite substantial and I was very full after eating just the soup. It is perfect for sharing or if you have a big appetite.

DELICIOUS food with HUGE portions I ordered the Chinese pork with sweet sauce, shrimp with sweet and ketchup sauce, and sweet and spicy chicken! Hands down the best deal for Korean food in the yonge finch, since it's affordable and the portions are BIG and can get your Korean fried chicken cravings too! Has the local mom and pop shop vibe and great cozy atmosphere for groups and families. Don't forget the combos for under 30 you get both fried chicken and seafood or blackbean sauce noodles! Check out this place for Korean Chinese fusion!

Really nice hidden gem. I think their fried items are just okay, but their noodles are fire

I got Combo A for $41 before tax and it was great! I would recommend this spot as it offers amazing value and flavour. Kimichi is solid too (which is a staple for a Korean restaurant).
