My significant other did not enjoy the seafood gumbo and asked to return the full serving. The server said she ordered it with her own free will and it's therefore not entitled to a refund. I explained how this is atypical of restaurants, who usually aim to do right by their customers , and he agreed? Despite his immediate contradiction, he was very rude and succeeded in embarrassing my girlfriend with his condescending delivery of "well the seafood gumbo has seafood.. ". She was well aware; simply did not enjoy the meal. She excused herself, embarrassed and upset. I begrudged him my card to settle the check. Moments later I waved our server down to ask for a manager, but he would not stop by. After flagging down the nearest employee and explaining the situation, she told me my girlfriend was in the wrong. I explained it simply, "she did not enjoy her food and the server was rude to her". That seemed to click as she then offered a gift certificate in case we would want to come back to be further shamed for disliking the food. I refused and she ultimately refunded the cost of the untouched Seafood Gumbo. Although an employee ultimately made things right, our night was ruined. I'm giving Kimchi 1 star for showing a serious lack in customer appreciation and respect. Simple politeness is all that was needed to mitigate the issues we encountered. read more

Kimchi - Korean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

This was my first time here as well as my brothers first time. He ordered the spicy chicken wings which I also tried and oh boy that was a whole new level of spicy but it hand a hint of sweetness to the sauce. I on the other hand had the Spicy Calimari which I thought was good. Overall the service was good and elderly lady that brought us our dishes was very sweet. I would say we'd go there again. read more

Kimchi - The Spicy Calimari the rice noodles just dissolve in your mouth. - Korean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

This Korean restaurant, located at the NW corner of Ford and Canton Center in Canton, came onto the scene with little fanfare, but with a veritable explosion of new flavors and authentic Korean cuisine. Don't let the name fool you, there are MANY more choices beyond just dishes that include kimchi. However, if you've never tried kimchi, I can't think of a better place to try it. I can say that I was overwhelmed by what was, up to then, a NEW food to my palate. Since that first experience, kimchi has now one of our favorite selections and Kimchi has become among our top local restaurants here in the Canton area. If you are looking to discovering new tastes to explore, Kimchi will NOT disappoint. read more

Run to this place! It was the best Korean I've had! Everything was delicious and flavorful. We ordered a whole bunch of stuff and everything was excellent! Pork was tender, rice cakes were Devine and seafood pancake was phenomenal! The kimchi was also so great! I can't wait for my return visit. This is a new favorite!!! I was too busy enjoying the food that I forgot photos. Next time! read more

Stopped in for takeout tonight - ordered ddeok bokki (spicy rice cakes) and kimchi pancakes. SO GOOD! The spicy rice cakes are so chewy and the spice level is perfect, quite hot but you can still taste the flavor nuance. The kimchi pancakes were also great and pair perfectly with the ddeok bokki, you can sop up every last delicious bit of the spicy red sauce with the pancakes. One pancake and about half of the spicy rice cakes (both from the appetizer menu) makes for a hearty dinner and you'll have 2 pancakes and plenty of ddeok bokki for lunch tomorrow and you will have spent about $20. Korean food is definitely pricier than Chinese and the portions tend to be smaller - however, the FLAVOR is incomparable. read more

Kimchi - Kimchi pancake and ddeok bokki - Korean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

This place is one of my all-time favorites, I have been coming here whenever I got a chance to be on this side of the town. Their Yukgaejang(Spicy Beef Soup) and Tteok-bokki(Spicy Rice Cake+Fish Cakes) are my go-to dishes every time when I visit here. I love the fact they serve you straight up the extra spicy dish if you ask for it. Although I'm a little taken back by the fact their pricing seems a little on the higher end. But after all, it is located in Canton, what can I say. read more

Spicy fried chicken, absolutely delicious! It reminded me of a spicy honey barbecue. Also had the veggie spring rolls, same as anywhere else and Edamame- first time trying, I enjoyed but didn't eat the skin. read more

I am so happy to find a Korean joint in Canton so I no longer have to drive to AA. It was nice to see other Koreans, so you know the joint is legit food wise. The food was true to tradition, the bulgogi was moist & tender, the tteokbokki was spicy, and the soondae was great (I loved that they served it with salt as well soy bean paste). Their service is slow & I felt as if I was expected to speak Korean (as an adoptee who grew up in the states...yo hablo español) That rubbed me the wrong way. All in all though, I would return to give them another chance because it's much more convenient than driving to AA. read more

Great food, the flavor is always on point and haven't had a bad dish so far! Some stews are definitely overpriced (especially kimchi stew, soft tofu stew, and soy bean paste stew). I go to this place for food that typically are difficult to make at home or things I don't always have ingredients handy (e.g., blood sausages, pork feet, etc.). Sarcastic staff (in a good way)--very interesting people! Hoping they'll have squid sundae one day! And also please add regular sundae as a side/small dish! read more

It's pretty good korean food. Not the best in the metro area, but solidly tasty with a expansive menu. Your usual go to options all taste great (bulgogi, bibimbap, stews, fried rice). Extra points for the the fact that they have my two favorites garanjim (steamed egg appetizer) and bulgogi jigae (bulgogi stew). Always excellent service, restaurant is always clean, and they did an excellent job on renovating the space. Best part, I no longer need to travel outside of canton for good Korean food. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

I know this is hard to believe, but (up until now) favorite Korean restaurant in the Farmington area has been dethroned, at least for the seafood Soon du bu anyway. While it doesn't come with the little fried fish that the other place offers, the broth is a lot more seafood-y and not as salty. The menu items are totally legit and the service was great. It makes me happy to know this is now 5 minutes from my house and I won't have to go all the way to Ann Arbor for Korean food. I'm super pumped to go back with my husband and son. read more

Delicious! We ordered takeout at lunchtime. The price was on par with the amount of food we received. The service was friendly and prompt. I look forward to returning for a dine in meal. read more

Oh Kimchi I want so much to give you 5 stars but I'm thinking you only deserve 3.5. I will compromise and give you 4. We ate here about a month ago and enjoyed the food. Our male waiter was everything you want a waiter to be: conscientious, attentive, informative. The woman (owner?) looked crabby and was not friendly. On a subsequent visit to get take-out the woman was again crabby. Someone needs to talk to her about attitude and customer service. On that first visit we ordered the calamari appetizer ($7.99) at the recommendation of our waiter. It arrived at our table piping hot and was delicious. Crispy but not greasy. The banchan (little dishes with a taste of a variety of salads and kimchi) was great and we enjoyed every dish. The kimchi is spicy but fresh. For our entrees we ordered the Korean BBQ Galbi (beef short rib $21.99) and the Stir-fried Spicy chicken and shrimp ($15.99). the Galbi was very chewy without a lot of flavor. I'm thinking it needed to be marinated longer. The portion was on the smaller size. The stir fried spicy chicken and shrimp was fantastic but very, very hot. The chicken was very tender and the shrimp were small but cooked perfectly. With drinks and a tip, dinner was $75. Definitely pricey but we enjoyed it. Last Saturday I ordered take-out: Seafood pancake ($9.99), Stir-fried chicken and shrimp ($15.99) and Spicy Pork BBQ ($19.99). The seafood pancake was very good and I imagine if eaten fresh in the restaurant it would be 5 stars. The Spicy pork bbq was very good and the chicken and shrimp great. When I got home I was disappointed to find that they had not included any banchan. Also, the take-out containers had spilled sauce. I'm grateful that it was in a plastic bag so it didn't get all over my car. $50 for 2 dishes and an appetizer seems like a lot to me. We have a lot of choices in Canton for great ethnic foods. This one is definitely worth trying. read more

My fiance and I stumbled upon this place yesterday. We had known it to be Thai Bistro previously, and were surprised when we saw the old sign covered up with a banner with the word "Kimchi" on it and thought it might be an attempt at the Thai restaurant crossing over into another type of cuisine. When we walked in though, the interior had been cleaned up from the vinyl-upholstery look to a more refined, traditional Korean-lettering wallpaper, and we were greeted by a Korean family and there was a clear indication of a change of ownership. Service was great all around and they were very kind. We had the Galbi-tang and Jjajangmyeon (black bean noodles). Both were decent quality, though I'd say the noodles were better than the Galbi-tang. I can't really think of any good Korean restaurants in Canton, and so as it is, I think it's as good as you're going to get. Having come from Ann Arbor, I'd say it's comparable in quality to other restaurants in AA, so all-in-all we left as happy customers. read more

I have been here for couple of times. I fell in lovw with their food. Dine in experience is really good. Whatever food you order, it comes with unlimited sides. Their seasoned fish and reddish are outstanding. Waiters are friendly and they explain the meaning of the things on their menu. read more

My wife loves Korean food so we were really excited to try out this new place in Canton. We have a couple go to Korean restaurants they we really enjoy in Ann Arbor and were glad something opened up near us. First let me say the overall ambiance and dining in experience not what we were expecting particularly when factoring in the cost of the food. I would say the cost is definitely on the high side. My wife had the bibimbap with tofu and I had the hibachi shrimp. The portions are quite small and just the overall presentation and taste of the food was not enjoyable. My wife really wanted to have her dish with grilled shrimp but they only have a seafood bibimbap with the shells on which she didn't want. Overall we will not be going back to Kimchi and will stick to our favorites in Ann Arbor. read more

We had a great time here. Great food. Full house. A great choice if you're looking to do something different for date night. (Spicy means spicy! But they're happy to adjust to taste) read more

The food here was incredible and I'd go as far as to say, the best Korean I've had in Michigan thus far! We dined in and it was a little toasty since it was summer and there was no AC but nothing dressing in light clothing doesn't remedy! read more

Loved their shrimp fried rice - they put tiny strips of seaweed in it that just add another delicious, crunchy layer. My boyfriend really enjoyed his chicken wings as well. read more

Been wanting to try Kimchi for a while and finally got over there last week, so glad I did it was excellent, service was great restaurant is very clean and my server I believe the owners son was great at explaining menu options, the meal came with little bowls of marinated radish,zucchini, black bean , kimchi,cod and one other thing but I can't remember what it was but all of them were great, I had the beef bulgogi soup as my entree, incredible flavor it comes with a small cup of rice that I added to the soup the the soup, can't wait to go back and try something else this is one of those places when you walk in you know it is going to be good cause it smells delicious, would like to go with a group to have a hot pot meal and try a couple different things. I really enjoyed the meal and this will be a regular visit for me. read more

Best Korean food I've had. Did a takeout. Quite reasonable $. Great portions and flavor!

I will keep trying different dishes and I don't have go to Ann Arbor for Korean cuisine! Btw, service was beyond my expectations. read more

I just came in close to closing time and asked for a takeout menu, the guy didn't know his stuff and the woman server/cook was really rude. I change my mind about even stepping foot in this place. Bye bye forever! read more

the food is always so good and fresh, the staff is also very nice. it's a beautiful restaurant

I'm no expert in Korean food but when I'm in Japan I really like Yakiniku restaurants so I'm always on the lookout for something similar state-side. Since Yakiniku is a Japanese take on Korean BBQ, I've always got my eyes open for Korean BBQ places. Generally, I prefer the "cook at your table" style for Korean BBQ. But I have to say, this place may have changed my mind. Like I said, I'm no expert on Korean food. But I know what I like and I really like this. I came here with my dad for lunch because we are the most adventurous eaters. I had the beef bulgogi and he has some spicy pork (both from the Korean BBQ section of the menu). Both were fantastic! I also really liked the sides they served at the start of the meal. I have no issue with spicy food. So the fact that some was spicy and some wasn't didn't bother me. But if you can't handle spicy food you'll need to pay careful attention. Definitely coming back here. read more

This was a very pleasant surprise, so far everything has been great. Very nice staff too. Just get yourself there already! read more

Food ranged from reasonably priced to higher cost dishes. Limited beer selection. Had 2 different soups and tempura appetizer. My wife's soup had a strong seafood flavor. The shrimp did not have heads on it. I had the spicy beef soup with potato noodles. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone. read more

Like most of these reviews, the downside to Kimchi is service. Eric was very friendly ... when he made it to the table. LOOOONG time to get menus, get served, get our bill; never got refills or asked if we needed anything else. The food was very good. The appetizer (Japchae) and complimentary side dishes were excellent ... a variety of flavorful, spicy, traditional Korean dishes. My wife and I shared an order of Korean BBQ (Bulgogi) and found it tender, flavorful, and filling. If you have the time, and are in no hurry what so ever, Kimchi is worth visiting. read more

Excellent spicy chicken, bibimbop and kimchi. I am looking forward to returning soon!

Can't say enough good things about this place - always order the bulgogi so am very pleased they brought bulgolgi gimbap to the menu during COVID! read more

We were just roaming around the area trying to find a place to satisfy our craving for Korean food and we stumbled upon this gem. We ordered Ddeokbokki and tofu for appetizers; Soondubu and kalbi tang soup for the rainy weather; and Jok bal out of curiosity. Everything was delicious! The ambiance is casual and it provides a comfortable at-home sort of feel. The staff are friendly and helpful. And I have absolutely no complaints about the service. This is my new favorite Korean restaurant in the area. read more

Really delicious Bib bim bap and soups! Everything tastes fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend.

The food was great and the service was phenomenal. He was extremely funny and entertaining. Food was absolutely delicious! I will be coming back! We read more

I was so excited when this restaurant opened near our house! I've eaten Korean food all over the US. Unfortunately it isn't that great. The banchan is meh, the dishes seems to be lacking flavor and we have even gotten the incorrect dishes in our takeout orders. The BIBimBab is dominated by hard strips of vegetables. Go to HANA in Ypsi or BIBimBab in Novi if you want to eat decent Korean food. read more

Definitely the most authentic and delicious Korean food in the surrounding cities. Highly recommended. read more
