This review is mainly because over the years sadly this location has gone down in service and food…read morequality. Don't get me wrong there are still some dishes that are tasty but it's hit and miss now. The portions are not as consistent as before and some of the managerial staff are less than helpful when it comes to customer service. On a Friday night in summer this place should be full!!! Like the surrounding restaurants and in the past I'd say it would have been but now, it was empty during peak time. Which is so sad because this used to be one of our favourite spots. The mushroom soup was watery and tasteless. Some dishes have more veggies than meat ratio. The curry peanut chicken was also watery not as thick as I'm used to seeing a Thai peanut curry. Coconut rice didn't have much coconut flavour almost felt like it was just coconut cream instead of water but nothing else. Just overall sad to see. I hope things change cause I'd hate to see this place continue to decline but the proof is in the pudding something isn't working for them to be empty in the middle of summer rush dinner time. Hope this helps. The main problem here is the food is not consistent. And the service from management is a little snarky. Side note though their crispy fish still is amazing so if you only go for that totally worth it!

The first thing I noticed about the space is that the interior is quite beautiful. It boasts dark…read morewalls, light seats on the booth and beautifully ornate gold treasure-like pieces along the wall and glass shelves. It is reminiscent of a museum that pays homage to thai culture in a very classy way. Our server was extremely friendly as she listened to our spice requests and emphasized that our food will be cooked to the way that WE desired. My partner and I ordered the Green Curry with Beef (with a side of rice) and the Chicken Ayam Curry (Malaysian style). In addition, we settled for a vegetarian spring roll appetizer with the sweet and spicy sauce. Due to a promotion, that spring roll was actually complimentary which was a pleasant surprise! The vegetable spring rolls were large but cut in half to resemble four mini rolls. It tasted good with the sweet and spicy sauce, but the inner veggie filling was piping hot (be careful, almost burned my tongue!). The curry portions were quite generous - especially the Green Curry which came in a bowl that was the size of a medium salad bowl! It was creamy and flavourful. The Ayam Curry was extremely savoury and the chicken was so soft. Instead of the creamy viscosity of the Green Curry, it harboured a thick, sauce-like consistency. It paired so wonderfully with the lightly toasted and buttered roti. It was so delicious that I ordered another! If I had to choose one to recommend, it would be the Ayam Curry. Savoury, delicious, flavourful and unique! Note: the only parking nearby is street parking along Avenue rd which may be paid (I commuted to the location).

I was just doing my daily walk goal and good thing i brought my wallet. In the first picture, you'll see the menu. It's really cheap and this is something i would spend for a snack. It was hard for me to find a spot where I can eat all the stuff I got. well, it's a street food anyway. I bought like 7 items in total but they didnt give me a bigger brown bag :( im not sure if they have but it would come handy for people who would like to buy more Flavour: Im not good with spice but for some reason, I was able to tolerate the spice on this one. It doesnt really burn and I could still taste the flavour along with the spice. I love the redbean waffle! It comes in 3 :) it was too hot so make sure you wait for a bit! It's so soft and still good to eat after a few hours

You get what you pay for: cheap Korean street food that's premade from frozen (except the taiyaki…read morethat's made on the spot). The soups tastes like miso soup that you would buy from the store, very salty. All the seafood are very fishy tasting. Everything is drenched in either a spicy sauce or teriyaki sauce. The taiyaki was crispy on the outside and filled with red bean paste which would taste better if it were a tad bit sweeter. I did enjoy the Bulgogi, Kim-Mari and the spicy ketchup based sauce. There was no line up when we went, staff is friendly but there is a definite language barrier; I had to repeat my orders a number of times. My food was barely warm, maybe it's better during the rush hours. The soups, however, were piping hot! I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. If I was in the area, had only a few coins in my pocket (items range from $1.25-$5), and was hangry, I would stop by again.

Quick service and the restaurant is nearly always full. We ordered a variety of skewers (lamb, chicken joint, beef, and chicken wings), along with seaweed soup, fries, enoki mushrooms and sautéed cabbage. Everything was delicious, though the only downside is that the meats are seasoned very similarly, so the flavors don't vary much. Still, I'd definitely recommend others give this place a try!

Cupbap is basically the Korean version of a rice bowl -- rice, meat, sauce, and different toppings…read moreall mixed together in one bowl. It's especially common around university areas in Korea. Their signature dish is the grilled pork belly Cupbap, and you can customize it with extra toppings. I added corn, mashed potato, and roasted seaweed flakes, and it also came with sweet-and-savory Korean glass noodles on the side. What surprised me most was that the pork belly wasn't just placed on top straight from the pan -- it was actually grilled first. The edges had a slight char that brought out the pork fat aroma even more, while the inside still kept that juicy, slightly chewy texture you want from Korean BBQ pork belly without becoming dry. Once mixed with their house-made Chungneon sauce and Korean spicy sauce, it became seriously addictive. The kind of meal that leaves you completely satisfied -- honestly, even thinking about this bowl later makes me smile a little.

Right now, they're playing FIFA games, so go there for a very mellow watch party. We tried the original fried chicken, and a small order was enough for both of us, with about 8 pieces that were cut small so there could be more crispy batter. I liked their sauce, Chungneon, which is made in-house.

Overall, I was hoping that the buns at this place would be above average especially given the…read moreratings and reviews however, I was really disappointed. I tried out types of buns. Specifically I tried the specialty and seafood bun. I found them to be quite average tasting. The bun wasn't really the soft texture I was looking for and the filling tasted pretty bland. As this place specialized in their steamed buns, I had much higher expectations for their flavours. Especially located in the core Chinatown area, you can find better buns at other places such as the bakeries nearby. Unfortunately, I would not revisit again.

This is a pretty average Korean restaurant in Toronto's Koreatown. Given how competitive the area…read moreis with so many great options, it didn't particularly stand out. We ordered the army stew (budae jjigae), and it was decent but nothing memorable. The flavors were just okay, and overall it felt like a standard experience.

In particular, their rice cake skewers is the best item imo. The rice cakes are nice and crispy on the edges. The chicken and pork belly skewers are ok. I think I prefer the pork belly skewer more but the chicken was still moist. I think it's got more to do w/ the teriyaki sauce being kinda mid haha (I'm pretty sure it's not homemade sauce). We've also tried the brown sugar pancakes and they were prolly the worst item. They weren't crispy at all (kinda soggy actually) and there was almost no brown sugar in each one. Definitely wouldn't recommend these. Between the custard and red bean waffles, I personally prefer the custard flavour while my gf prefers the red bean. The only thing that kinda piques my curiosity still on the menu is the udon, the meatballs and the fish cakes. Debit and cash only. No parking lot nearby.
