    Gamjatang pork bone soup (14.99)
    Michelle T.

    Food was decent, I liked that you can adjust spice levels. I love that they have potatoes in this soup to really soak up the soup. Also, that soup was delicious!! I like that you can order the egg to be over hard my dad got this and said he liked it. It's his goto! Service was nice. They were so attentive and gave us extra napkins. I do have to say though... They're ALL butter fingers. They dropped things over 5 times on the floor and I saw them put at least 2 of those things back into the clean basket (red) to wipe down and serve. Good thing we sanitize all our utensils everywhere before using them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Vibes are casual. Come in sweatpants. I love their 2000s rnb playlist that they had going.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Came for their lunch special. I got the bibimbap and it was a large stone pot with purple rice, with all the ingredients. It was very tasty and I loved how the rice on the bottom got crispy. My cousin got the pork katsu and that was pretty good too. I saw a lot of people getting the spicy pork, I'll prob try that next time. The price was good $13.99 for the lunch, the side dishes were okay, nothing memorable. Decent place here if you are craving Korean food.

    Was craving some Korean food and wanted to try this place. Restaurant wasn't too busy on a work day evening, and even then service was slow. Sullantang - Broth was creamy, but felt like a instant noodle package. There was also very little beef in the broth. Ultimately, I don't think the soup had the body I'd expect from a beef broth. A bit disappointing, would not recommend. Side dishes were only ok. Would not come again.

    The restaurant was so busy that we had to wait for 15 mins. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It has decorated for Halloween inside already.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They survived from the Covid, then we could tell they must be so good. The price was only a bit increased and it was understandable because of the inflation. I love their traditional Pork Bones soup with rice, then my husband got their beef stone bowl. They came really fast and the side dishes were nice too. But the Pork Bones were not as much as before, this time only 3 pieces. Lucky that I was not a big man to have a lot. The beef stone bowl was tender and tasty. And it keeps it warm for a long time. Pretty cool. We like this restaurant so much and definitely come back later.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cozy spot, amazing food![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Tried this spot for the first time 2 years ago, [[HIGHLIGHT]]parking lot sucks, it's very busy and sometimes a little out of control.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Recently took my niece and nephew there for their first time. I didn't include pics of what they ordered as they were too far across the table, and everyone was hungry. Flavours are always delicious, and price is fantastic compared to other Korean spots. Service is as expected of an Asian resto, quick, no nonsense, but still pleasant if you need anything. This location has charge on takeout boxes if you don't finish your food, and also tip is added on for large parties. They are posted all over the redtaurant. The staff was very worried we would be upset by that when she told us, so I guess other people have made a huge stink about it.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute little Korean resto in the Langham Square plaza.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's located on the upper outdoor lot, where parking is usually limited. Staff are friendly and attentive, and the food was served relatively quick. We ordered the Army stew, pork katsu set, and the pan fried dumplings. The army stew came out hot and bubbling. I appreciated that I could choose the level of spiciness as not all Korean restos give you this choice. The pan fried dumplings were nice and juicy, though it looked and tasted more like deep fried dumplings. The katsu was good, but a bit on the thinner side. We didnt get as much variety of aide dishes as we would at other Korean restos but the side dishes we did get were delicious. Prices were reasonable so will be back to try the other items from the menu!

    Spicy tofu
    Julia L.

    Have been wanting to try this place for so long!! First of all, the service is always great. The workers there are so kind and very attentive. They will check in on you occasionally to make sure you have anything you need. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant layout itself is pretty small but not too small that you're so close to others beside you.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] As for the food, I've been on the hunt for a good black bean noodle in Markham. This wasn't the best but it was pretty good! Second runner up from my all time favourite black bean noodle. 4/5 We also tried the spicy tofu. It was pretty spicy but loved it!! The seasoning wasn't too heavy and it was yummy. I'm not the biggest fan of tofu so don't take my word for this. 3.5/5 Lastly, we got the seafood pancake. It was also good! There's a mix of veggies and eggs within the pancake. I only had a bit of it but every single bite I had had an onion. It could've been just that section of the pancake. The outside was crispy which made it delicious! 3.8/5. My family LOVED it though. Their rating: 4/5 The short ribs were pretty good. Not the best I've had but loved how easy they were to cut into. Sometimes I have to fight to remove the meat from the bone. I wish there was slightly more sauce/flavour on it. 3.8/5

    Chicken boneless
    Jahleel C.

    My new favourite Korean restaurant! I ordered takeout to take home for my family and did not get disappointed. The boneless chicken was JUICY and the right crisp! The gimbap was delicious but fell apart at times. Pork bone soup was EXTRA SPICY. I guess it's not for the weak at all. The chicken katsu was absolutely out of this world! It wasn't dry, it was the right crisp as well and perfect amount. It came with side dishes like seaweed, pickled yellow radish and dumplings. I will order here again for sure!

    Kimchi fries
    Vivian L.

    One of my favourite Korean spots in Markham. Staff are always so attentive and friendly to check up on you, refill water, offer refill on your side dishes (limited 1 time per table) and quick to notice you. Their food is always yummy. Honestly no complaints. The pork bone soup and cold noodles is a must try. Especially ordering vinegar on the side for the cold noodles, iykyk. I recently tried their kimchi fries and it was SO good! Crispy Cavendish fries (like Costco fries) and the creamy kimchi sauce was the perfect pairing!

    Went to this Korean restaurant today (all the staff are Chinese) and omg the attitude was sooo bad After dinner, the waitress literally asked me and my bf for tips in the most impatient tone ever. Our bill was $42, we gave her $2 (we're students and didn't even bring much cash), and guess what?? She actually ROLLED her eyes at us Like... excuse me??? What the hell is wrong with her attitude?? I mean, what mistake did I even make for her to treat me like that? I gave a tip that was reasonable, legal, and honestly the best I could do. Why would something like this even happen in Canada?? So rude. Never going back.

    Pork bone soup (mild spice)
    Wendy T.

    Tried this place for the first time as a girls night out. Parking can be a little tricky. There is a lot of people visiting this plaza so above ground parking is usually full. They do have an underground parking though. Ambiance - 4/5: it is a small and narrow store front but they can seat quite a few tables. We asked to switch tables because the original area was cold since it was close to the door and they were willing to do so. They only have 1 universal bathroom but it's clean and spacious. The servers spoke in Chinese and English. And they had Cantonese songs playing in the background the whole night. Made me feel like singing karaoke haha. Service - 4/5: their service was pretty good. They are quick and if they are serving someone else, they will acknowledge your request but will ask you to give them time. If the whole table pays by cash on one bill, you get a 5% discount. Food - 4/5: They had garlic seaweed, thinly sliced daikon (or white radish), dangmyeon (glass noodles We ordered the seaweed roll (gimbap) and seafood pancake to share. Individually, we ordered a chicken katsu bento, mackerel bento, pork bone soup (mild spice) and army stew (regular spice). I was debated between the pork bone soup or mackerel bento but opted for the pork bone soup. It did look really good though. My friend says it was good but got a mouthful of fins at one point. The gimbap was good. It fell apart sometimes, depending on how you picked it up with your chopsticks. I personally did not have an issue. They give you 8 big pieces. The seafood pancake was ok for me. I liked that the outside was very crispy. But the inside, I found quite wet. The pork bone soup - it was a big portion and definitely filling. Mild spice was very spicy for me. It definitely cleared up my sinuses. They had 2 big bones, 1 potato and 2 long cabbage pieces. The meat was tender but unfortunately, it was not fall of the bone. I still needed to use my hands. It also came with a bowl of rice. Overall: 4/5 - I recommend this place!

    Pork Bone Soup was fairly watery and tasteless. Odd that they would have tamato in the soup. Gave decent chunks of meat though.

    A Friend came to visit and watch the new Demonslayer movie. So we brought them here for a pre movie…read moredinner as they never had something like this. Service 10/10 - today they had 3-4 waiters/waitresses working so there was always somebody coming in to check if things needed refills. Our waiter (sorry the name is escaping me.) was a newer parttime worker but was providing us 10 out of 10 service!! Food - 10/10 we got alot more sides than normal today for our friends to try. The tteokbokki was nice and had a deep flavor. Not too spicy and not too sweet. Rice balls was nice and soaked up the tteokbokki sauce. This time we got the half half with spicy bossam and Bbq jokbal. They were both really good flavors. The store had kpop playing at a moderate volume. But we had no issues chating away while sipping on soju. Definitely recommend!

We love how the sides are refillable but I don't think we ever ask for refills more than twice as the portion is so generous. Hanyang Jokbal has always been consistently good, and it's why we always come back. The portion of food is always plenty, the taste is unmatched and the sides are delicious. While the food took some time it was understandable as it was very busy. The waiter was very apologetic about the wait. In terms of the interior, it's just one more thing that makes this place such a good dining option. The interior makes you feel like you're not in Toronto. While it does get quite loud, I think it just shows how much people are enjoying the food and the vibe. Hanyang Jokbal is definitely a must!

The taste is at pat or even better than the well-known Korean places around while the portions are much bigger. We ordered takeout a few times already. The owner is super friendly and even prepared some special side dish for us as my son has a particular one that he liked from another Korean place. Overall, if you are craving takeout for a big group, their family pack is the way to go. Do order a few hours in advance of lunch or dinner time as the prep time can require some time. Patience is a virtue that carries a lot of "wait". As they say, you can't rush "art" (in Korean food prep and cooking).

We ordered the bossam, seafood pancake, and budae jeongol and the bill came to ~$100. The bossam was quite a large portion and the flavour was quite delicious. Our favourite item was the seafood pancake. We devoured that and if given a choice to only order one dish, I would definitely recommend the seafood pancake. The budae jeongol (as a solo dish) could easily feed two people. They pack the soup in two large circular soup-like takeout containers and the ingredients in a square container - same as the ones that the bossam and seafood pancake came in. There were plenty of tteokbokki, sausages, cabbage, and ramen noodles. We put the dish together in a wok and kept it heated on a portable induction cooktop. They gave four containers of banchan: fish cakes, japchae, radish kimchi, and mandu. My only complaint about this experience (4.5/5) was their inaccurate waiting time. I called in around 5 PM on a Wednesday to place my order and they quoted that the order would take around 20 to 25 minutes. I showed up ~30 mins after I called and they didn't have the food ready until 5:50/5:55 PM. I understand that they're busy, but I would have appreciated a more accurate wait time.

The broth wasn't very salty but still flavourful and once you let the peppers steep into the broth, they add a lovely spicy kick. Another substantial dish is the steamed pork bo saam ($49.99 for large) where slices of pork belly are kept warm on a hot plate. Diners tuck these soft meat slices into lettuce, Napa cabbage, and turnip with a smear of the savoury bean sauce for a protein packed bite. Our table was split about the haemui pa jeon ($28.99). The size of a medium pizza, it's made for a group. Personally, I found it way too thick and didn't contain enough ingredients to balance out the doughiness of the Korean style pancake. Conversely, my relatives preferred the heft as it contrasted the crispy exterior and soft interior. I guess it depends if you're a thin versus pan crust type of pizza lover. I'm firmly in the Neapolitan camp. I thoroughly enjoyed the crust that develops on the bottom of yachae dolsot bibimbap ($18.99). And the hot stone rice bowl contained a good combination of ingredients to ensure there was plenty of vegetables and beef to go around. De Chou's LA kalbi ($34.99) was rather neutral with very little sauce, so you mostly taste the beef. I personally would have preferred more sauce to help caramelize onto the beef ribs, but the older members of the family appreciated the plainness and liked that it was tender. This is a long review for the rest go to Gastro World.

The service was okay after that, not as attentive as they could've been and we had to ask for things a couple times but I understand as they were very packed. Everyone was still very kind regardless.

They were served with many sides and the cheesy corn was our personal favourite. Their other sides were also alright but again nothing too special. It was a very packed day so it was quite loud in the restaurant and we were almost yelling at each other from across the table, so if anyones looking for a more intimate spot, I'd go elsewhere.
