Service was good and food was delicious…read more We got fried rice and bulgogi, overall it was yummy! We got here at 5pm on a Sunday. It was only a couple of tables that had customers. Shortly after, the whole place got so packed! So I guess that's something to watch out for in terms of timing. I specifically preferred this place because of the location and good parking spot. Overall, I'd go back here again.

Spicy Stir-Fried Squid and Pork Belly…read more I could hear the wok going absolutely crazy in the kitchen, so my expectations were high before the dish even arrived. It came out sizzling on the hot plate, with the oil still crackling. The pork belly was thick-cut but perfectly sized for one bite. The real surprise, though, was the squid. It had that firm, springy chew you get from grilled squid, but the flesh was also surprisingly thick and substantial. It felt like an indestructible little fighter that just wouldn't give up. Every bite turned into a tiny tug-of-war between my teeth and the squid, and I genuinely loved the texture. The shredded onion, zucchini, and carrot each added a different texture, with the zucchini especially helping cut through the richness. Almost every chopstickful had some meat plus two or three strips of vegetables. The ratio was pretty much perfect. It is on the expensive side, though. I checked Jindallae afterward and a similar dish there is around $22, making this one roughly 30% more expensive. A little disappointed that I didn't get the eggplant banchan I'd heard so much about. The side dishes I did get were simple and very home-style in their seasoning.

Nice choice, food delicious, service very well, food price reasonable, will come again and again!read more

Food 4/5 Service 4/5…read moreAmbience 4/5 Jin Korean Noodles We grabbed a dinner on the past Monday evening. At 6pm the restaurant was full. Dining in can accommodate about 28 patrons. We got: King size dumplings BulGogi & Kalguksu meal combo The dumplings are truly king size, fresh steamed and delicate in flavor. My partner found it too bland but I appreciate the delicate flavor as often food in restaurants can be too salty. I liked the texture of the cut noodles in the Kalguksu. The combo meal was delicious and I wished that the side dishes were refillable. It's a restaurant that I would like to return to and try additional dishes.

A Friend came to visit and watch the new Demonslayer movie. So we brought them here for a pre movie…read moredinner as they never had something like this. Service 10/10 - today they had 3-4 waiters/waitresses working so there was always somebody coming in to check if things needed refills. Our waiter (sorry the name is escaping me.) was a newer parttime worker but was providing us 10 out of 10 service!! Food - 10/10 we got alot more sides than normal today for our friends to try. The tteokbokki was nice and had a deep flavor. Not too spicy and not too sweet. Rice balls was nice and soaked up the tteokbokki sauce. This time we got the half half with spicy bossam and Bbq jokbal. They were both really good flavors. The store had kpop playing at a moderate volume. But we had no issues chating away while sipping on soju. Definitely recommend!

Came here to introduce our friend to Jokbal. We ordered the half and half (spicy Jokbal and the…read moregarlic Jokbal) along with the seafood pancake. We love how the sides are refillable but I don't think we ever ask for refills more than twice as the portion is so generous. Hanyang Jokbal has always been consistently good, and it's why we always come back. The portion of food is always plenty, the taste is unmatched and the sides are delicious. While the food took some time it was understandable as it was very busy. The waiter was very apologetic about the wait. In terms of the interior, it's just one more thing that makes this place such a good dining option. The interior makes you feel like you're not in Toronto. While it does get quite loud, I think it just shows how much people are enjoying the food and the vibe. Hanyang Jokbal is definitely a must!

The side dishes were not very flavourful either - bean sprouts, potatoes all were very bland. Kimchi was alright. Seafood tofu soup was bland as well - not spicy at all, not sure if they were trying to adapt the flavours to local tastes? Sweet and sour pork was very fresh but not enough sauce. The service from the lady at the counter wasn't great. She barely spoke to us or acknowledged us. Also did not appreciate that she seemed impatient when waiting on us to order and handing us the bill before we asked despite there not being anyone else in the restaurant. Overall, would not return. They currently offer a free drink with a google review. Friend and I both had stomachaches after eating here, so be a little careful. This meal was the first time we saw each other in several months so, this was the only common/overlapping meal we shared.

They've brought Korea to Markham! Although it is a takeout-only place, they bring better value…read morecompared to other famous Korean restaurants in the city. The taste is at pat or even better than the well-known Korean places around while the portions are much bigger. We ordered takeout a few times already. The owner is super friendly and even prepared some special side dish for us as my son has a particular one that he liked from another Korean place. Overall, if you are craving takeout for a big group, their family pack is the way to go. Do order a few hours in advance of lunch or dinner time as the prep time can require some time. Patience is a virtue that carries a lot of "wait". As they say, you can't rush "art" (in Korean food prep and cooking). Our favourites - bolgogi, kimbop, fish cake sides, japchae, and seafood pancake.

This is a take-out only restaurant. I believe it's run by a older Asian couple and they're both…read morevery kind. They are located on Hwy 7 in a small lot with four parking spots at the front. We ordered the bossam, seafood pancake, and budae jeongol and the bill came to ~$100. The bossam was quite a large portion and the flavour was quite delicious. Our favourite item was the seafood pancake. We devoured that and if given a choice to only order one dish, I would definitely recommend the seafood pancake. The budae jeongol (as a solo dish) could easily feed two people. They pack the soup in two large circular soup-like takeout containers and the ingredients in a square container - same as the ones that the bossam and seafood pancake came in. There were plenty of tteokbokki, sausages, cabbage, and ramen noodles. We put the dish together in a wok and kept it heated on a portable induction cooktop. They gave four containers of banchan: fish cakes, japchae, radish kimchi, and mandu. My only complaint about this experience (4.5/5) was their inaccurate waiting time. I called in around 5 PM on a Wednesday to place my order and they quoted that the order would take around 20 to 25 minutes. I showed up ~30 mins after I called and they didn't have the food ready until 5:50/5:55 PM. I understand that they're busy, but I would have appreciated a more accurate wait time.

Crispy gyoza, fried greens, japche, and kimchi were all so generously placed into my bowl! So much flavor, so many textures! Highly recommend. Price cant be beat for the portion size! Limited to no seating, more of a grab and go type setting.

To make matters worse, I paid over $10 for this container of kimchi. After getting home, I found that it was only about two-thirds full. The photo shows exactly what I received.

Slice pork broth soup lightly salted and comes with 2 dips (mini sauce pot) on aside, personal preference would be gochujiang mix on the right which gives you a punch of spice. It's hard to find good Korean restaurant in Markham/scarborough. This is definitely a hidden gem, will definitely come back with the boys.

The fans they were running helped a little but we were still pretty uncomfortable throughout our meal. Not a great start. We shared seafood pancake, japchae, budae jjigae, stir-fried soondae, bossam and katsu for the kids. Although most of our orders were pretty good, our katsu came doused in the katsu sauce which we asked our server to leave out. They offered to make a new one, but by this point we were all pretty hungry and wanted to get on with our meal, so we just took it with the sauce. I didn't like their kimchi as it was way too sour to be used as banchan. Other sides were also just average, with no stand outs in execution or flavour. Although the food was ok, our visit was just ho hum. Not sure if I would return to eat here again.

The service was okay after that, not as attentive as they could've been and we had to ask for things a couple times but I understand as they were very packed. Everyone was still very kind regardless. We had the pork belly and boneless short ribs and they were good, nothing too special about it. Personally I think it was more on the expensive end for what it was. They were served with many sides and the cheesy corn was our personal favourite. Their other sides were also alright but again nothing too special. It was a very packed day so it was quite loud in the restaurant and we were almost yelling at each other from across the table, so if anyones looking for a more intimate spot, I'd go elsewhere. But again this is not their fault and is to be expected in larger popular places. It is a drinking spot too so that was the vibe they had with lots of chatter and fun bring had. Overall a decent spot for kbbq and I'd say go here more for the atmosphere more than just the food!
