This dynamic restaurant and takeaway spot is a must-visit destination for those seeking authentic Korean cuisine alongside inventive fried chicken dishes that truly stand out.

The menu bursts with a diverse selection of dishes that showcase the rich and bold flavors of Korean cooking. From the hearty and deeply satisfying Jajang Myeon — traditional black bean noodles priced at CA$14.98 — to its spicy cousin, the Gochu Jajang Myeon (CA$16.98), every bite delivers a soulful experience of savory, dark soy richness balanced with a fiery kick. The Seafood Jjamppong (CA$19.98) is a vibrant, spicy seafood noodle soup loaded with fresh ocean flavors, and the XO Crab Meat Fried Rice (CA$19.98) offers a luxurious mouthful of umami-packed, wok-tossed rice studded with succulent crab.

For a playful twist, Snowy Cheese Fries (CA$10.98) and Bulgogi Poutine (CA$12.98) blend Korean flavors with comfort food classics, making for an adventurous yet utterly satisfying side dish.

Regular guests like Ashton Mathias appreciate the generous portions, noting that an order of fried chicken feeds two people comfortably, with around sixteen pieces per serving. Customers also praise the staff’s attentiveness and thoughtful touches, such as providing thin disposable gloves to enjoy the saucy chicken mess-free—a small detail that shows genuine care.

    - Food: Tried the soy garlic ($37.98) and the hot chili pepper ($39.98); the latter of which has a decent kick to it and both of which were pretty good. Each K-Fried Chicken order feeds 2 people (I believe there are 16 pieces in each). - Value for money: Pretty solid - Service: Friendly. They give you thin plastic disposable gloves to avoid getting all the sauce on you hands. - Other: They state they do not accept AMEX.

    Tried the Korean fry chicken. Taste is good. Just find the batter is bit heavy for my liking. Next time will try the bone-in chicken to see any difference. Staffs are friendly and very helpful. Lot os space in their patio, if you like to seat outside.

    I really enjoyed the food, the cozy ambiance, and the superb service! As someone who loves Korean food, this place did not disappoint. I especially loved the jjajangmyeon and tangsuyuk — they were absolutely delicious. Highly recommend if you’re craving authentic Korean flavors!

    Delicious food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere. If you're on Preston Street, this place should be a solid contender for your dinner plans. Unless you're a veteran of Korean foods, you'll probably see something on the menu that you haven't tried before. The Sweet Chili Fried Chicken was very good, and the Snowy Fries were a fun adventure that I would happily experience again. The indoor seating is limited and they do not take reservations, but they have a large patio. I would recommend that they supply better quality napkins, as things can get very messy and the napkins are basically single-use. The service was very friendly and prompt. I think takeout is a popular option from here, I will definitely be back to try more!

    My daughters took me here for a birthday meal to eat my favourite food which is Korean and I was not disappointed at all. Efficient service, wonderful staff and most of all delicious food. I also want to add the mango/grapefruit splash drink was amazingly good.

    It’s become our go to place for some authentic Korean Fried Chicken. Always crispy, juicy, flavourful, spicy and piping hot to order. It’s always a hit - and portions are generous. The chillies and rice cakes are such a wonderful touch. Plenty for two people to share. It’s a hidden gem in the city and run by very nice and friendly staff. If you haven’t tried it yet, it’s worth a try!

    We ordered a few different dishes. I really enjoyed the sweet chili chicken and stir fried glass noodles w/ veggies . My mom ordered the mango drink which was really tasty. I had the iced coffee which I wasn't a fan of. Overall ok food, a bit pricey though. Small restaurant and we were seated outside which resulted in us asking to move tables twice as people brought their dogs on to the very small patio and we preferred to not eat with dogs so close to us.
