Beef bibimbap $10
Vivian C.

Bibab Express is conveniently located at the food court near my office so I go there religiously for lunch! I usually get the beef bibimbap with purple rice ($10) and choose from their assorted sides such as shiitaki, spinach, carrots, cucumbers etc. - you can choose as many sides as you want). You also have the option of getting a flower-shaped sunny side up egg which I find very cute! Miso soup comes with the meal as well. I always overestimate my tolerance for hot sauce so it's nice that they have a water machine nearby so I can put out the spiciness in my mouth! The quality of the beef is a bit inconsistent. Sometimes they are cooked too well and they end up being very dry. Overall, I think the price is reasonable for the quality Bibab Express has to offer.

What a pleasant surprise to see this little gem in downtown!? I was looking for something small to eat before the work and the Bibab caught my eyes. Wasn't hungry enough to go for the full portion so tried their roll. Nicely wrapped and most importantly, I could still sense crunch shrimp underneath the thin layer of firm rice. Very pleasant experience!!

Udon bimbap!

This is probably one of my favourite place for lunch because the food they serve is truly the balance of eating healthy but not overly healthy like pure salad (greens) only. My personal go to food here is their Noodle Bimbap. It's very similar to the regular rice bibimbap, but instead of mixing the vegetables and the choice of your meat (Chicken or Beef) or Tofu into your rice, the mix it into a udon and it becomes what I call a Udon Salad! The Udon Salad portion is huge, I consider myself as a big guy and it can fill me up fine for lunch. For just 9$ for a Udon Salad, it is one of the better if not the best semi-healthy meal in downtown standards. The Udon Salad (Bibap) comes with an egg and you can pretty much choose whatever vegetables you want. Top if off with either a spicy or soy sauce and a complementary Miso Soup, you have yourself a great meal! If you work in the financial distract and is good navigating the path, I recommend checking out this place!

Bibimbap with all veggies and chicken.

I stumbled upon this place in the Richmond-Adelaide Centre foodcourt and the line was quite long so I decided to give it a try. This place allows you to create your own bibimbap. Step 1) pick a rice (white, brown, black) Step 2) meat choice (chicken, beef, tofu, salmon) Step 3) Veggies Step 4) Sauce (different spice levels). The one I got was quite spicy which drowned out the rest of the taste of the meat and veggies, otherwise it was quite enjoyable for a food court korean place. With that being said, it is a pretty unique choice from all the other chains in the downtown core.

They make the bibimbap fresh, mix it all up with your choice of ingredients and serve it with an egg and a free miso soup.

The food was beautifully presented, and every dish felt thoughtful. I especially enjoyed the balance of flavors -- fresh, clean, and creative, with just enough surprise to make each bite memorable. The sashimi and small plates were delicate and elegant, and the presentation made everything feel even more special. Service was also attentive and professional. The staff made the evening feel smooth and comfortable, without rushing the experience. Overall, Akira Back is the kind of place where the food, ambiance, and service all come together nicely. Definitely a restaurant I would return to when I want something refined, flavorful, and a little more elevated in Toronto.

I was starting to get really hangry and irritated after walking around the city all day. We started with Korean beer and shots of Jinro Is Back Soyu. It was a good idea. Overall the food was quite good. I recommend everyone to check this restaurant out for themselves. The Korean pancake with seafood and vegetables was huge and much crispier than the one I've tried before. My beef tartare bibimbap was perfect. Just thinking about it makes me want to have it right now. The sizzling hot plate with pork and squid also looked very impressive. It must have been delicious as well, because one of my companions ate the whole thing with no problem. The spicy shredded beef brisket stew/soup 'Yukgaejang' was something which i wouldn't survive, but my man finished everything to the last drop. Jin Dal Lae is the number one restaurant when searching for Korean food in Toronto on Yelp. I'm glad we gave this place a try.

TLDR - Affordably priced. Good portion. Reasonable taste…read more There were so many Korean restaurants on Bathhurst and Bloor that were highly ranked on Yelp that we decided to choose one based on the second most reliable pointer - there were many Koreans dining inside. Hence we entered Jin Dai Lae. Good decision (yes, I am patting my back). Entree pricing was $3 to $4 lower than Markham/Richmond Hill. Portion was so big that you would be full, and might have to doggy bag. Most importantly, food tasted good. Short ribs stew had many pieces of beef. Squids hot plate was saucy. It wasn't too spicy, so it was good for me (menu didn't have a chilli sign either). For people who like it hot, you can ask for some chilli sauce.

Mexican Chili Samba Fried Chicken Spicy fried chicken, with a moderate spiciness, perfect for those who can't handle too much spice. It's delicious even without sauce.

For starters, we had the Takoyaki, followed by mains of the Red Dragon Roll and Shrimp Tacos. The fish tasted fresh and we liked the seasoning on the shrimp! Lots of other options depending on the type of roll you may want and various proteins for your tacos. The food came out quickly and I love how unique the interior is, with various popular anime posters on the walls throughout the restaurant. I'd come back here for a quick bite - heads up though, they don't do reservations! It got busy here by ~7 and I've seen lines out the door before walking past on the weekend.
