Korean seafood restaurant - Bambada. It's near Coquitlam Center, across from M Cafe for those who…read moreare familiar with that area. They specialize in seafood, we ordered a small seafood pot ($50), the whole pot was packed with seafood, the broth is amazing. Service is attentive and friendly. It's not very noticeable from outside, as it has tinted windows. But once you go in, is actually very bright and clean. Highly recommend!

Bossam is served with a fun variety of sides like tofu, pickles, and radish. The deep fried oysters + pancake options (seafood and potato both) have not let us down, though the pancakes are a little small for the price imo. Have only had their signature seafood pot once; it was fresh though not memorable enough to be something we gravitate towards.

It was quiet when I arrived for an early lunch. Typical of many Korean restaurants, there is a…read moreservice bell at the booth which makes it easy to flag down a server. I went for the sogogi dolsot bibimbap. It was served quickly and came with a large variety of banchan. I loved the bottle of spicy red sauce and probably added way too much, but it was so tasty. The rice crisped up on the dolsot at the bottom and provided a nice texture. The kimchi banchan was delicious so was the fish cake banchan. I recently saw a few foodies post about this spot so I assume they're going to get pretty busy soon. I will try and get a group of friends next time so we can try more things. You also get a yakult at the end of your meal. Easy parking in the lot, or pay parking on Anson. Come check it out!

The army stew is my go-to dish to order whenever I'm craving Korean comfort food, & theirs definitely hit the spot with the generous servings of meats, 2 types of noodles, various veggies, & all without being too salty. The seafood pancake was crispy & so hearty. We enjoyed chasing everything down with refreshing Milkis & (my fave) Cass beer! The ambience is lovely; walls are decorated with traditional Korean Hanbok outfits & texts. Service was friendly & prompt. All in, a 10/10 experience!

Came here at dinner time weeknight without a reservation and there was plenty of seating. They have…read morea daily $10 special consisting of soups, and rice bowl sets however it's very much a kbbq restaurant since there were bbq stoves even for two seaters. They offer a variety of meat, cuts, and combo deals but on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, they have an all beef and all pork all you can eat. We went on a Wednesday and it was all you can eat pork belly and marinated pork, with a soup and unlimited kimchi pancake and sides all for $30. The servers were extremely attentive in asking about refills, whether that's the rice, meats or even side dishes. A great bang for your buck for all you can eat these days. We heard the staff speaking to many customers in Korean so it must be Koreans approved. Need to come back on a Tuesday to try their beef all you can eat!

I first tried this place earlier this yr for lunch and ordered the beef bone broth soup, which came…read morewith a bowl of rice and banchan. I was craving this soup and glad I tried it here because it hit the spot! Tasted delicious, didn't have to wait for a table, and it was reasonably priced then. Came back here last night for dinner with my family and was finally able to try the bbq items. It was a hit! We ordered 2 of the combo A which was the perfect servings for 2 adults and 3 (very hungry!) teenaged boys. Not only did it come with 3 meat types (thinly sliced pork belly, marinated beef Bulgogi, and one other thinly sliced beef), it also came with soup, banchan, and a big bowl of Bibimbap. We also ordered their seafood pancake which was perfectly crispy and not too thin or thick. The actual bbq grill itself was the best one I've seen at a Korean restaurant because it was non-stick, temperature controlled really well, and it didn't leave us smelling like the food after dining. The ventilation must've been good here as it wasn't super smoky at all. The best dish was definitely the bean paste soup! We all loved it and had never tried it before, so next time we have Korean, it will be a staple in our order! It wasn't too busy last night so we were seated right away. Staff were friendly and while they were short-staffed, they were quick enough to get what we requested and ordered in a timely manner.

Great Korean spot in Surrey! Tried the kimchi fried rice…read morewith pork cutlet and cold noodles--both were super flavorful and came in generous portions that made the pricing worth it. Service was a bit slow, but the staff were friendly, patient, and even helped clean up when I spilled some soup (oops). So glad to find a solid Korean restaurant nearby without having to trek to Lougheed!

Did takeout but was extremely pleased with the portions, temperature and price!!!…read more Ordered the kimchi soon tofu soup combo that comes with a cutlet and 2 small side banchan or bean sprouts and Korean fish cake. Devoured it like I've never eaten food in my life lol Noni got the spicy cheese cutlet which has the sauce on the side and 2 huge pieces of cutlet with the best breading ever. I swear this is just takeout and im raving about this place so we're going to go today lol They have so many different combinations and seems like options for everyone.

I usually visit the downtown one and order the stir fries. This time I tried the budaejjigae…read more The price on the menu was false advertising. You have to order from 1, 2 and 3 to complete the set. They tell you the base cost in 1 and you can pick sides to add to the pan for free or for cost in step 2, 3. Except.. step 3 only has items priced at $5. I asked if I can just omit it and they said no, it is mandatory to pick one. Why don't they just add $5 to the base cost and then make step 3 free. Adding a price make it seems like I can choose to add it or not. So now the budaejjigae is $41 instead of $36 with sides I didn't really need. Quite pricey for a very simple ingredient dish. Soup base was very flavorful but not a lot of ingredients was in it for that price point. One thing I didn't like was the buying of positive reviews. They offer you free soda/pop for positive reviews only. Parking is limited but we did find a spot on a weekend lunch.

If you love onions, order this. Came with PURPLE RICE. I love Korean purple rice (which I believe is a mix of many different grains added to white rice). Unfortunately most Korean restaurants in Vancouver do not have purple rice. -Cold Noodle (14.99$, but they have a lunch special where, for 16.99$, you get two potato pancakes): At first I was hesitant to order this because I love buckwheat (dark gray/purplish colour) cold noodles, and these weren't those, but am so happy we did. I love the texture. The flavour of the broth was also excellent. My only qualm was the "cucumber garnishes" that, in my opinion, were actually too-sweet pickles. Other than that, highly recommend. Potato pancakes were also very yummy. They served complimentary barley tea, and had yummy banchans (kimchi radish, fish cake, and soy sauce pickled onions). The waitress (daughter of the owner-her mother) was very kind and patient with all my questions. Affordable, delicious, authentic, with good portion sizes.

Bright, large space, that's good for groups. They even have an outdoor patio space too. It was nice…read morethat our group was able to sit at one large table that was a bit separated. Only issue was it was sometimes hard to flag down a server because of where our table was, otherwise service was great. They were friendly and accommodating for our large group. Overall, food was tasty. Portions were quite large too. Prices might seem a bit more compared to other places,but the quality and portion justifies it. Seafood pancake- thick and crisp. Plenty of seafood (mainly octopus) but still good. Fried chicken- crispy and good flavour. Interesting that they sprinkled seeds and cranberries on top. The portion was massive. Bossam- meat was tender and they provided more lettuce when we asked. Beef bone broth with noodles- plenty of beef. The bone broth was tasty and nourishing. It was also served with the hot stone bowl rice, which was a nice change to regular rice. Overall a great meal and I'd happily return.
