I considered eating at Koryo about five times, but never took the plunge--that is until I read…read moreLauren's review. Today I was at West Edmonton Mall, and I wasn't really that hungry, but I really wanted to try Koryo. I got the BBQ Chicken Main Dish. It was only $7, and it came with plenty of food--much more than I was expecting. It came with two chicken thighs, two scoops of rice, and two side dish choices. I got the green beans and the potatoes. They also smothered my food in a delicious sauce. The chicken was very good. It was cooked well, and it was very tender. The rice was good--not too sticky. The green beans surprised me, because they were purposely cold. I wasn't crazy about that, but it was still good. The potatoes were to die for. They were very crispy on the outside, yet very soft on the inside. I had to take at least half of my food home, because I couldn't eat it all, and the worker was nice enough to give me a little box to put it in. Koryo was like eating at an actual restaurant--even better than some restaurant food I've had, and it's cheaper too. I'll definitely be coming here again!

It's been ages since my last visit to Wing Chicx so I figured we'd give it a shot, especially to…read moresee how it would hold up against all the new KFC joints that have opened up lately. That and all my go to Korean places were closed Monday. L and I got there just before the rush and were able to snag a table. I don't know what Wing Chicx's deal is but either their layout is terrible or they need to train their staff better because we were asked to move once we had settled down along with another couple to make room for a larger group. Wouldn't have been an issue but the rest of service was terrible. It's a rarity that I complain about service but woooooooow, dreadful would be putting it nicely. There were two waitresses working the front but they were running around like headless chickens. Or maybe they were hiding in the back, I have no idea. Sure, it was busy but it wasn't packed. I have no idea why/how it was so hard to take our order, re-fill our waters (that didn't happen), and to process our payment (had to ask multiple times for the bill). - Banchan - pretty standard stuff. They brought out kim chi, bean sprouts, braised potato and pickled daikon. The potato was the tastiest of the four side dishes. Good luck getting any refills. - Jap chae (#32) ($11.99) - pan stir fried sweet potato noodle with beef and assorted vegetables in their special soy sauce. My bud's never had jap chae before and I've never had Wing Chicx's take on this Korean staple so we ordered it. It was pretty average. I'm not a fan of the cabbage that they throw into the mix. Can't help but compare how much better Korean Grill's version was. - Original bulgogi beef (1D) ($16.00) - bulgogi beef with mixed vegetables marinated in Wing Chicx bulgogi soy sauce. Again, I wasn't very impressed. It was almost identical to their jap chae dish except that there was more beef and an unnecessary, excessive amount of cabbage. And seriously, what's with using the exact same vegetables? I know times are tough with increased food prices but yikes. At $16.00, our most expensive dish, I wouldn't order it again. - Chicken drumsticks ($10.99) - they were out of full chickens (we wanted to get half a chicken for $15.00) so we settled with their 6 piece drumstick option. These came out PIPING hot. You've been warned. The skin is hot, crispy and evenly battered while the inside is tender and juicy. Pretty good but you need to get a side of the sweet sauce to jazz up the flavours. We asked for extra sauce but that never came. Easily the best dish of the night and price is on point. I prefer their half chicken option as you get a variety of cuts and it just soaks up the sauce better. - Seafood pan fried pizza (8-S) ($12.99) - assorted seafood and mixed vegetables battered together and pan fried. It came without the vinegar soy sauce that usually accompanies seafood pancakes, which they didn't bring out until we were two thirds done. Of course, we weren't able to flag them down to tell them this so we gave up and ate it without. Sadly, It NEEDED sauce to save it. The pancake itself was mediocre. Lacked any crispy texture (read: kind of mushy) and the amount of seafood inside was laughable. Pretty disappointing. This was one of those times where bad service really can affect your food experience. Food was above average but it's no longer on my list when I'm thinking of going out for Korean food. Too many choices these days to have to settle for mediocrity. If you go, make sure you order the dishes they're known for doing well and you should be okay.

My love for Korean fried chicken is SO REAL!…read more From eating at multiple Korean fried chicken joints, I would say that this is in my top 3 of best chicken ever, and top 2 for best-fried chicken without any sauces. The exterior of the chicken is so crunchy and personally, just enough flavor. The ratio with breading to chicken is also P-E-R-F-E-C-T. With 7 people sharing 36 pieces of chicken, it was a lot of chicken. My friends and I also got to enjoy many other Korean dishes, from a few hotplates, stews, and appetizers. My friend and I shared the original bulgogi beef hot plate and the kimchi soontofu stew while the group also shared the cheese tteokbokki. With all this food, we were all content with how full we were. Based on what I ate, the Bulgogi beef hot plate came out hot and sizzling. It was music to my ears! It was a little sweet but paired well with the one bowl of rice that came with it. The sauteed veggies complemented the beef well. I would recommend getting this if you are trying out Korean food, or want some really bomb traditional food. Another dish that I got to try was the Kimchi soontofu stew. Since I was craving this, I was really looking forward to it. It came out it a hot stone bowl, filled with delicious kimchi, some seafood (TBH, no seafood really but I didn't mind), an egg, and LOTS of tofu. Personally, I love tofu as it soaks up all the flavor you give it. It was flavourful with some seafood and was more acidic than spicy. It paired well with the Bulgogi beef, as the stew cuts through the rich and sweetness of the beef. The Cheese tteokbokki was good from the pieces I had (about 2 or 3, LOL) It was soft and the pieces were pretty long. Other than that, I would not recommend sharing this dish with 7 people, as it is not enough for everyone. Unless you want a taste, but there's no guarentee that your pieces will have any cheese on it. The service was very sweet, although there was only one person running the front. She did a great job, I would say! The employee was very patient with ordering our food, she always had a smile on her face and got us everything we needed. A shout out to her because if I was in her position, everything would be in flames. The location is pretty small, and we were SUPER lucky to have a seat for 7 people when we came in. There is a reason why this place is always packed. You feel just at home! I would recommend this place if you live in the deep south side. The good Korean food just hits the spot! In total for my share, I spent around $23.

Flavours were Original Mild, Soy Garlic and Snow Cheese. The fried chicken were still hot and crispy after I got home and they tasted amazing! Such a hidden gem and they are located near NAIT, the owners were also nice to chat with. Definitely one of my go to place for Korean Fried Chicken on the Northside. Highly recommended if you love KFC...Korean Fried Chicken that is!

Across the street from the NAIT Campus, we came on a Friday evening when it wasn't very busy in the area, but I can see where finding parking nearby might be a huge issue. There is only street parking around this area. Chicken For You is a small space inside a strip mall along 118th Ave. Most of the strip mall places were either shut or non-existent. It was a little desolate along this area. Regardless, we walked in and there are 5, maybe 6 tables. You order from the counter and then take a seat anywhere. We decided to hunker at a table near the TV where there was a K-Pop show going on ! We both ordered Combo meals, Mild Chicken and one with Fries, the other with Fried Rice. The gal at the counter told us it would be about 20 mins as they cook the chicken fresh when the order is placed. There were a number of Skip/DoorDash/Uber Eats deliveries that came in and left in the time that we were waiting. So clearly it's fairly popular. When our food was ready the gal came rushing out of the kitchen. Not what I expected... for $11 - Combo with Fries & $13 - Combo with Fried Rice, I thought there would be only 2 pieces of chicken... but No! 6 pieces in one and 7 in the other. The first bite and this chicken just came out of the fryer ! Piping Hot ! Overall, Chicken for You has fabulous Korean style chicken ! Serving sizes are very large, and even a single combo could have fed both of us. The Prices are incredibly reasonable ! The décor for the place is nothing to write home about. While being clean, it feels a bit rough around the edges. While the Fries in the combo are very good, I have to say the Fried Rice was a bit of disappointment. Regardless of the rice, I like this place and am now wanting to try some of the other items on the menu. We'll be back !

One thing to note is that the soup isn't very spicy. Overall, I'd give them 8.8/10

It's definitely a cozy spot better equipped to serve smaller groups than larger parties. The menu is pretty straightforward with just enough variety so that everyone would probably find something they'd be interested in. I ordered a Bulgogi (stir-fried marinated beef) that came with rice and some banchan, then I also got a separate appetizer of Mandu (fried chicken dumplings). All the food was as expected and I can't really complain about anything. The bulgogi was cooked to perfection, the mandu was crispy and soft as a fried dumpling should be. The portions are large and is just the right amount for a meal if you eat like me, or a meal and some leftovers if you eat less. I wasn't in a rush and enjoyed my meal, they checked how I was doing a few times but never felt pushy. Super friendly and very prompt service. I'd try some other things next time I went. Go with a small group of 4 and try a few different dishes that you can share is my advice.

My friend and I came here for dinner before going to a show. I was looking at restaurants along our…read moreroute and Hanjan seemed like a great option. We dined on a Friday around 6pm. The space inside was nice and much bigger than it looked outside. There were a few diners when we got there, but still plenty of seating. We were seated, given the menus, and water (including a jug for the table, which I appreciated). The server told us that when we're ready to order to press the button on the side of the table. I love when restaurants do that. I ordered the Hanip to drink, which is a seasonal tea beverage, a non alcoholic type cocktail. I got the Japchae, which is a bowl of Japchae (glass noodles), beef bulgogi, spinach, carrots, onions with a shitake soy dressing. My friend got a coke and the Donkas, a breaded pork cutlet with a cabbage slaw. It also came with ketchup and bbq sauce on the side. Our food came out very fast; I don't think we waited more than 8 minutes, but our drinks hadn't arrived and the server said they'd be on the way. With our meals they brought out a small side of vegetables that included kimchi, bean spouts, radish (may have been daikon) with this delicious sauce, and mashed potatoes, plus a side of steamed rice. I'm not sure if the veggies and rice were for my meal or my friend's or for the table, but we both enjoyed it. I really liked the radish dish. Our meals were also delicious. My friend's pork cutlet was massive and she said it was really good. I loved the Japchae, it was savoury and comforting. I had been debating about ordering one of the full vegetable dishes like the eggplant or cucumber salad, but the serving sizes are decent and I wasn't hungry. The downside was they forgot about our drinks. I kept waiting and finally partway through our meal I pressed the button and asked about our drinks, and they had completely forgotten. The server (a different one from before) apologized. My friend's coke came out right after that and my drink took a few minutes to make. I do understand things get missed (I've worked in restaurants before), but it also wasn't very busy. So I can't give Hanjan 5-stars because of this but it was still a really meal. Both my friend and I said we'd go back again.
