    BBQ Beef Plate with corn salad and Kimchee
    Sibyl C.

    Bright, clean, simply decorated small business run by mother and son. Really friendly and took time explaining the small menu. The mandoo and beef dish was what I expected. The corn salad wasn't what I expected but we tried it and liked it. Its mostly corn and mixed with seasoned mashed potatoes is probably the best description for it. We like this better than macaroni salad that you may get at other places. Kimchi was ok, I was expecting a stronger flavor since I heard mom and son speaking in Korean. The chicken was good, a little too much sauce for on the rice so I shared some of mine. I would come again and try the spicy pork and kalbi next time I am in the area.

    Really wanted to love...but didn't. The Asian auntie who both cashiers and serves was such a sweet woman. Very attentive and warm to our table. Offered additional bon chon throughout our meal. The food was subpar. My garlic shrimp was doused in so much butter that my stomach didn't agree with all the fat post-meal. I'm not the biggest fan of kimchi or side salads but everyone at the table was in agreement that the taste was just meh. The side salad was not a mac salad but some sort of corn concoction? Nothing I've ever had before. Low frills restaurant, kind service, just ok eats.

    Korean Chili Chicken, with kimchi and corn salad over white rice

    Young's Korean BBQ exists in the same spot that Kim's formerly did, in the parking lot of Safeway on 112th. I ordered the Korean Chili Chicken to go. It comes with rice, your choice of pickled vegetables or kimchi, and a corn salad. It costs about 15.95. Upon opening my to-go container at home, the portions of chicken and rice are ample. There was a nice portion of kimchi and of the corn salad. I tried the corn salad first. The salad is a style of con saelreodeu, a sweet corn and mayo based salad with onions and some peppers. It had a nice crunch to the vegetables and corn, and was sweet like would be expected. I found it a bit too sweet for my taste, but it wasn't candy sweet or anything. Next for the chicken. I asked if it was like a buldak and she said that no, it was her own recipe and a different dish. The chicken (dark meat) was well fried and had a sticky and shiny coating, and looked very nice (see image). It was on a bed of short/medium grain rice that had a nice sticky quality to it as well. Biting into the meat, I found the chicken incredibly juicy with a very sweet flavor profile. Here's where I'm a bit sad to say that it was not as I'd hope. The flavor profile was rather one note (sweet) and I got almost no spice to it. It also didn't taste strongly of anything else, so if you had asked me I don't know I would have said it was Korean chicken vs like, the more American Chinese food coated chicken you can find in a lot of places. The rice did absorb the sauce, which again was very sweet. The star of the show, ironically, was the kimchi. It was crunchy and pungent, with some spice and a nice well rounded fermented flavor that was delicious over the rice. Honestly, I would have happily had that and a bowl of rice and called it a day.

    I ordered the chilli chicken and a Dr. Pepper food was okish nothing special 1 star. I absolutely hate leaving hungry, the portion size was way too small. It reminded me a of lunch special worth $8. Service was ok nothing special. The ambiance was basic but very clean so I added 1 star. I'll never go back not worth my $20

    First time in and great experience Friendly family-run business. Good for dine in or quick takeout. Attentive service too! Ordered the BBQ Kalbi, Chili Chicken, and BBQ Spicy pork amongst three people to try out these three for the first time! Yummm. My fav was the Spicy Pork

    Order the spicy pork & kalbi short ribs combo and thank me later!! And if you come extremely hungry, get the spaghetti as an appetizer! Lovely owner, delicious food, and clean space -- cant get any better! Truly a hidden gem in Vancouver

    The food was delicious. I dont know what was in that corn salad but it was in incredible. The staff were even better. Very kind people. Will definitely be back. Restaurant was super clean :)

    The spaghetti reminded me of the Hawaiian restaurant zippys. One of my personal favs. Definitely worth the try given the location.
