When you walk in you're warmly greeted with a smile. The menu has great options while not being overwhelming. During a trip to Kitchener I frequented this restaurant 3 days in a row, while being remembered by the owners each time, because of how amazing the food was. I tried multiple dishes each day and was truly blown away but my favorite was the soondubu/tofu stew. The jjajangmyun, jjamppong, shrimp fried rice, and tteobokki are all fantastic and I highly recommend. A friend had the pork belly and she said it was amazing. I will have to find an excuse one day to visit Kitchener again because of this spot. Wishing the best to the owners and their family. This place is truly a GEM.

Everyone was incredibly kind, and the food was more plentiful than we expected. We assumed we'd be getting our orders only (tuna poke bowl, beef bulgogi, and chicken katsu) but you also get soup and salad before your meal, and a scoop of lemon sorbet after. Similar to what you experience at a hibachi restaurant in the states, only a better variety, and quality of food. It's a shame we're not local, I'd really enjoy the free healthcare, and earning at this restaurant on the regular. Thanks for a wonderful meal.

We are former foodies. Prior to the pandemic we ate out a lot and frequented lots of neat holes in the wall as well as Michelin three star places, but post pandemic we are more of a Good Food box at home trio. I picked this up after working a shift in The Meaford ER on Family day weekend and it was really great. The Gimbap roles were neat, the tempura was still crisp even after my drive home of twenty minutes. We enjoyed the variety and the staff was so pleasant and helpful. We will definitely order again.

Having Korean food is the number one way to comfort the soul, especially on a rainy day. That's why…read morewe headed to Owl - one of the few Korean restaurants in the Loo, and it may just be the best. Arriving on a Friday night with a big group, it was not too busy in the restaurant. We were seated in a booth so it was roomy and comfortable. They had kpop playing on the TV which was nice and entertaining to watch. We ordered the spicy ricecakes and kimchi pancake as our appetizers, which were delicious! It was my first time trying the kimchi pancake, and it was so crispy and fresh. The refillable side dishes were tasty as well, particularly the kimchi radish and potatoes. There were many options on the menu to choose from but I finally settled for spicy bulgogi which comes with a bowl of rice. The spicy bulgogi came on a sizzling plate, mixed with different veggies and glass noodles. I haven't tried glass noodles in bulgogi before but I found that it was a nice addition since it carried the sauce well. It was a really yummy dish and I'd order it again. I'd recommend coming here if you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal. Can't wait to be back for more!

Has dim lighting in the dining area with upstairs and downstairs seating. There seemed to be regulars here. Everything started off well, we ordered a tempura appetizer that was pretty good with light batter. Sadly that was the extent of the good experience. After receiving the appetizer it took about 40 minutes to receive our main course sushi entrees. Aside from an apology there wasn't anything offered or comped for the long wait. All the sushi entrees we ordered were mediocre sadly. The quality of fish wasn't high. Unfortunately this is one of the few sushi restaurants in the area so I think that's why it has higher reviews. Service was just okay too. Based on this and the sushi quality I wouldn't recommend.

We throughly enjoyed it, including the three little side dishes you get. (Including the rice). Some people say there's too much oil, I can see why, but to me that's part of the dish and culture. If it's not for you don't go back, but we certainly will.

Service was pretty poor as no one came to check up on us or helped us with getting a refill on our water jug. Overall, pretty good considering how cheap the food was!

And if you're not a sushi type of person, they have a variety of options for you that isn't sushi. I've been to Yummy Yummy in town a few times, although I find their food isn't great like Okinawa. It's definitely not the same and you can taste the quality in Okinawa's food. If you are a sushi person, Okinawa has a bigger sushi selection than yummy yummy and it is definitely more delicious! One thing I would say is, try a lot on the menu, all you can eat price- is a little pricey. But the food is definitely worth it and you are definitely getting what you paid for!
