    Korean Fried Chicken Wings
    Robert L.

    Love this Korean restaurant and love the vibe and interior decor. I really enjoyed the K-Pop music that was playing while we enjoyed our meal. The owner was very nice and friendly and the food tasted amazing. We enjoyed everything that we ordered, but my favourite was definitely the bo-ssam. Here's what we ordered. - Korean Fried Chicken Wings (with side salad) - Ttukbaegi Gamjatang - Korean Style Pork Cutlet - Bo-ssam

    This is latest restaurant that's opened to join the Edmonton Korean scene. It is located in a small strip mall near Southgate mall. I've been here twice now and it's fantastic. I've been to many Korean restaurants and this one ranks very high in Edmonton. Machef has better portions and quality than other Korean restaurants I've visited. It is also reasonably priced since the portions are pretty big. The menu is small but food is good. The inside is modern and clean. For the food, I've tried: -Bo-ssam $37 (boiled pork belly lettuce wraps): It comes in a plate with a steam lid and is a share dish. It's a great dish for pictures and is delicious. The pork belly is tender and soft. It goes well with the soybean paste and the other add ons (I really liked the Kimchi). The only con of this dish is that the lettuce is too small to wrap but as long as you take bites of the ingredients together...you would not be disappointed! -Spicy Pork Bone Stew $13: this is more of an individual dish. Stew is spiced perfectly and very flavorful. It come with a bowl of rice and Kimchi. Great comfort food for a cold day. I find this dish is better value for the portions you get compared to other Korean restaurant stews. -CN Tower Spicy Pork Bone Stew $37: this is a bigger share plate version of the individual stew above. The difference is that this one has noodles, spinach, significant increase in the amount of pork bones with meat and is initially presented with a tower of spinach and meat. It also comes with two bowls of rice. I shared this with three other friends and we all enjoyed it. The service was friendly and welcoming. The owner was interested in our feedback of the food for both of my trips here. For my second trip, he even gave us a plate of complimentary corn chip snacks he made and it was tasty as well. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants good Korean food and I'll definitely be back to try the other items on their menu.

    Deep fried fish special

    Officially my favourite Korean restaurant! They haven't been open long, but boy oh boyyyyy every item on the menu is seriously BOMB! If you're up for an adventure, I'd definitely recommend the yukhoe (beef tartare). If there's a special, get it. You won't regret. I tried a deep fried fish special when I went, and it was the most amazing deep fried whole fish I have ever had. Perfectly seasoned a bit sweet, salty and tart. I normally don't enjoy fish dishes much, but I couldn't stop eating this one.

    Machef is a new Korean restaurant that has opened in southside Edmonton! It is located in the same strip mall as Sunterra Market and Sushi Wasabi. The restaurant gives off a very homey feel and the menu is what I would consider Korean "comfort food". At Machef, the menu is small. The owner, Jacky, told me that he wanted to focus on quality, rather than quantity. Unlike other Korean restaurants that have a large number of menu items but only a few outstanding ones, he wanted to ensure every item on his menu was delicious! We started off with the Steamed Tofu. It was a simple dish - the tofu was topped with mixed greens and a soy garlic sauce. I liked how the sauce added a lot of flavour to the tofu but wasn't heavy. The other appetizers on the menu are Panfrying Tofu, Avocado & Shrimp Salad, and Yukhoe (Korean style raw beef salad). This was actually my second visit here. I ordered the same thing as my first visit because I had been craving it. The Korean Style Pork Cutlet is very filling and satisfying (look at how big that cutlet is!). It's topped with a housemade gravy sauce that isn't too savoury but has a slight tang. If you don't like to get lost in the sauce like me, you can ask for less sauce or have it on the side. The cutlet comes with a scoop of rice and house salad. If you think there's too little rice, you can always ask for more. I had to because I like my meat to rice ratio to be even. The house salad reminded me of coleslaw with a sesame sauce. My friend had the Seoul Seolleongtang which is a beef bone soup with rice noodles and thin slices of beef striploin and brisket. It's served with rice and radish. She really enjoyed her soup and said it was hearty. I had a bit of a taste and found the broth to be on the lighter side. The owner gave us samples of his special feature that night to try. It was Spicy Pork Belly, which I hope will become a permanent addition to the menu. I didn't order it originally because I have a low tolerance to spice but I really liked it! The sauce wasn't burning and the pork belly was very tender. We shared Patbingsu for dessert, which is Korean shaved ice. Here, the shaved ice does not contain milk in it like at other places. The owner wanted to make it as traditional as possible. He said that the Patbingsu served here was reminiscent of what he used to eat in Korea during his childhood. The shaved ice gets its sweetness from its toppings: red bean paste and condensed milk. We really enjoyed this dessert and liked how fresh the housemade red bean paste tasted. Overall, I found Machef to be a very welcoming Korean restaurant. The food was delicious, the portions were above average, and the pricing was fair. I will definitely be frequenting this restaurant as I do love Korean food!

    New Korean spots seem to be popping up all over the south side. We decided to try Machef, which is a few doors down from Sushi Wasabi. We dropped in on a Sunday (around 1:00pm) for a late lunch. It was empty but there were a couple other customers that came in. Service is friendly and the chef even popped by a few times to say hello. The menu is small; appetizers, mains and desserts for a total of 15 items. - Banchan - kimchi and radish. Standard. - Panfrying tofu ($7.00) - with chili and sweet & sour sauce. Tofu was light but everyone wanted it crispier. - Yukhoe ($12.00) - Korean style raw beef salad. Turns out it's more like a beef tartare. Nicely marinated and good texture. - Rice ($1.50) - extra rice will cost you. - Rocky mountain bulgogi ($35.00) - marinated thin sliced beef, vegetables, tofu and glass noodles. This comes in a big pot to share. Broth is homey, simple and slightly on the sweet side. - Korean style pork cutlet ($16.00) - pork sirloin cutlet with house salad and gravy sauce. This was my favourite dish that we ordered. Cutlet was perfectly breaded and the texture was fantastic. - Bo-ssam ($35.00) - boiled pork belly wraps with lettuce, seasoned radish and soybean paste. Another dish everyone loved. Pork belly was tender and juicy with the fat to meat ratio spot on. Oddly, they don't give much cabbage to wrap the meat in. The dish also came with raw garlic, sliced jalapeños and an addictive sauce. You will want a refill of that sauce! - Ttukbaegi gamjatang ($13.00) - spicy pork bone soup with potatoes and napa cabbage. The broth wasn't very spicy and we found the flavours subdued compared to everything else. Another solid Korean spot. Make sure you get the cutlet.

    Best pork cutlets. I will come back for this dish!!
    Mansi Y.

    Much smaller menu than most Korean places, which honestly I appreciate so much! Tried the pork cutlets and the Rocky mountain bulgogi hotpot. Wow!! The pork was super thin and perfectly breaded and crispy! Huge too! Great amount of food in the sharing hotpot, lots of sweetness and on a cold day, you can't ask for more. The chef came out and helped us cook our hotpot meal and used scissors to cut the cutlets for us. Great service. Will be back, great addition to the korean food scene in edmonton!

There were unlimited refills on the banchan. Service was excellent. There was a button to get the attention of staff. They were quick to respond to our requests for banchan refills. They would stop by frequently to clear finished plates. The food, itself, was quite good. The meat was fresh and some were nicely seasoned. The steamed egg dish was fluffy and went well with rice. We picked the soybean paste soup with tofu, beef brisket and veggies. I enjoyed the saltiness of the soup with rice as well. The dumplings were super crispy and were deep fried perfection. Ambiance was lively as the restaurant was busy. Restaurant was clean including the restrooms. There was plenty of free parking on the plaza. My only complaint is the price of the dumplings. I am too used to Lower Mainland prices that there was a sticker shock at $18.95. Maybe this is the normal in Edmonton?

Service was good; use the call button to ask for things. It was cold inside with the AC blasting. Menu consists of appetizers, BBQ meat, soups, rice dishes, shareables, noodles, hot pots and stir fry's. They have BBQ combos for two to four people. - Banchan - two types of kimchi, pickled daikon, seaweed salad and sliced onions. All tasty. - 2x Rice ($3.00 each) - would have been good with one additional bowl. - BBQ combo set ($94.00) - good enough to share between four. Best of the meats was easily the LA galbi. The rib finger wasn't the freshest. Corn cheese was a good appetizer; more cheese than corn. Sukuh soondubu jigae was tasty but not much seafood or sliced beef. - Bibim-naengmyun ($17.00) - refreshing but standard fare. Solid KBBQ eats at Jung. Would come back again.

Their selection is quite limited but they have all the essential items that are fairly fresh. However, I've had bad experiences here. When the staff lowered the grill temperature so it took longer to cook the meat, it didn't feel good, especially given that their time limit is shorter than other places. Moreover, when the staff urged us to eat more rice instead of meat, it just felt bad.

We love kbbq but it's very expensive here in Edmonton, and there are only two in the city. It's located in an inconspicuous (weird if you ask me) spot, in a neighbourhood in front of a school. Parking wasn't that difficult to get. Upon arriving we waited 10 minutes for our reservation and we got seated. The vibe and atmosphere of this place is very family-run-authentic. The meats are served buffet style and you grab your own drinks from the soda fountain. Sides of lettuce, salad (my personal fave- amazing vinaigrette to cut the meat), kimchi, bean sprouts, etc. There were also a few variety of fried items. My favorite was the shrimp chips. They also have fried rice but no white rice. Which leads me to my next point-- Service: AMAZING!! One of the older ladies saw my boyfriend and I mixing our fried rice and kimchi to make kimchi fried rice. She asked if we wanted some sesame oil and seaweed to put into our fried rice to make it more bokkeum-bap!! She came back with a bottle of sesame oil and mixed it in for us. The only downsides: They put a piece of parchment paper over the grill which kind of absorbs all the juice. The selection of meat is very limited as well. For 2 people not including our alcohol, it came to about $75 for AYCE. Not too bad considering it's the only other kbbq place in town. Will definitely be regulars!

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.

Pickled ?daikon was 10/10 so great for cutting through all the meat flavor. Bean sprouts were just okay. Friend liked the sauerkraut but I did not. Broccoli was very nice to grill. Marinated raw Onion was good (better slightly warmed on the grill). Marinated pork was my favorite. Pork belly was good. The super thinly sliced was one was my least favorite. Hard to cook and shrivels up too much. The super thick cuts I also did not like as I found it too chewy but honestly that could just be my cooking skills. Grill was swapped out 3 times during our 1.5hr experience. Ate 100% of everything But only 50% of the egg, and 10% of the bean sprouts (2 very hungry people). Overall what a fun experience.

My boyfriend and I split the Bulgogi Fries and the Padak (Soy Garlic) Korean Fried Chicken. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. After one bite of the Bulgogi Fries, it was an immediate 10/10. The fries were crispy and had the perfect golden crisp + soft inside ratio. And don't even get me started with the sauce on top. The white sauce was light, and had the perfect combination of slightly sweet and savory. It was a wonderful aioli. And the veggies added were so good. The tomatoes and scallions added a nice freshness and slight acidity to the overall dish. Lastly the bulgogi was just *chef's kiss*. I don't really know how else to explain it other than the Bulgogi Fries were a well-balanced dish. We were scooping every single missed vegetable in the sauce after we demolished the fries. The Padak (Soy Garlic) fried chicken was so tasty. Whenever I get wings, my go-to is pretty much anything soy garlic, or anything included garlic. The fried chicken skin was the best part. Great texture, crunchy, crispy, wonderful flavor. It was a great blend of savory, umami, and garlic. And the green onions on top was a great addition. Portion size for both things we ordered was perfect for the two of us. Also, don't even get me started on the banchans. Great kimchi, radish kimchi was so refreshing, and that mashed potato side? Terrific. We asked for more banchan when we were done. Lastly, we came back the very next day to try the desserts. At first, I wanted to pick one dessert to share between me and my boyfriend but it was so difficult to choose one. So we got both lol. We ordered the Injeolmie Waffle, Honey Butter Bread, and tried some of my cousin's Strawberry Bingsu. The Injeolmi Waffle itself was delicious, sweet but not too sweet. The ice cream added that sweetness and the almonds on top were nice. And the Honey Butter Bread? Wow. The milk bread and the fresh whipped cream were fluffy, light, and not too sweet.

About the same in price point, and way better flavours and freshness. This would also make a good take out for a picnic.
