    bibimbap has become the ultimate comfort food that i especially crave as the weather gets colder... had such a lovely experience at this cosy bibimbap spot! food came relatively quickly and the service was so courteous and friendly as well. — we ordered an egg & vegetable bibimbap and a bulgogi beef bibimbap! the bowls were sizzling and piping hot, which created the crispy bits of rice that i especially love hehe. i wish every bibimbap place had the sauce in a squeeze bottle so you can decide how much or how little sauce to add!! the sauce was a little on the sweeter side and a bit watery, but at just the right level of spice. the portions were also very generous-- a lot of bulgogi and veggies! -- overall a super nice experience! really want to come back for their japchae and tuna kimchi bibimbap... :0

    Very tasty, especially without any expectation. It really surprise me. Lovely decoration and good ambience. But for the traditional Korean food, hope they will use Korean soya sauce and chopsticks. Bean paste soup and kimchi taste not that good. I love kimchi and I understand every family have their own kimchi taste, but the kimchi they serve is really not my cup of tea and need to pay for that. I always think kimchi for Korean restaurant just like chopsticks and spoon, it's a "must have" item and provide it for free.

    BOM Bibimbap was a BOMB! As a Korean, I do not always leave a 5-star review for a Korean restaurant. When I do, it means I am unusually impressed. This little cozy place is a hidden gem in downtown. Its menu was focused on its Bibimbap specialty and offered various creative takes on this Korean classic. I ordered Bulgogi bibimbap and I saw right away how the portion was perfect. The ratio between the rice and other ingredients was excellent. Meat and veggies were also plenty to savour. All the ingredients tasted fresh and they were marinated and seasoned to almost perfect balance. I can confidently suggest that anyone would enjoy this restaurant's bibimbap dish as no particular taste is overpowering. They also kindly offer soy sauce and gochujang for those who want more seasoning. In addition, their service was really good and I believe their pricing is very reasonable. I would definitely return to this restaurant to taste their other versions of bibimbap. It was an enjoyable meal to remember.

    I travel to Seoul regularly, this is hands down the best Korean food I’ve had out side of Korea. Small cozy little spot. Staff were very friendly. Didn’t have to wait long for my food and the hot stone bowl is amazing. Highly recommend lunch here.

    I was looking for a healthy and tasty option in Toronto while I was there for the day and this popped up on Google. Glad I went because the food was both delicious and had lots of different veggies and colours. Prices were good and service was quick. Judging from how busy it was I think a lot of people like this place.

    I got the beef bulgogi bibimbap and the crispy tofu bibimbap and would recommend them. It was quite standard as I felt like nothing really made the experience any different from other Korean restaurants. Anyway 8/10 for food and speedy service

    A little hole in the wall, this restaurant came recommended by a coworker. Really glad I tried it, as the bibimbap here is fantastic. They use really healthy and fresh ingredients, and the food tastes delicious. They even give you miso soup for free. Price-wise it's comparable or slightly less than Korean restaurants in the area. The only downside is the restaurant is quite small, so it's not super comfortable, but for a quick lunch it hits the spot.

    We have never had Bibimbap, but we always wanted to try. WOW! Amazing food, fair price, friendly staff! They do what they do very well. The food was amazing and came quickly. We were very satisfied! I had the Spicy Pork, with added Kimchi. My wife had the Don Katsu with a fried egg. Both were super flavourful and filling. Beautiful presentation, you could tell it was made with care. My eyes got to feast before mouth. We were very impressed!

    Great place. This is the first time we tried bibimbap. We ordered deep fried tofu and egg & vegetable bibimbap. Both were good though we found the taste a bit bland. We will certainly go back again.

    Very friendly service and the food is great! We had beef dumplings to start and then the spicy pork bibimbap bowl and beef bulgogi bubimbap bowl. Everything was delicious and the portion sizes were good. Will definitely be going back!

    I've been cutting down on beef a lot so I tend not to order that and save that for the special occasion. Pictures looked good on reviews so came try this place out. I ordered the pork and BF ordered bugolgi beef. I wish I had order beef! hahaha Not that the pork was bad or anything, it was indeed delicious but the beef was another level. I like the sides they give you as well in the bibimbap as well, felt so much healthier (and also different) than the regular ones I had at other places.

    First time visit. Definitely would recommend for lunch. Ordered the tofu bibimbap & vege dumplings. Got miso soup, which was good. I did like the variety in my meal though. It was nice, light, refreshing & definitely healthy. Kale, quinoa, carrot, red cabbage, wild rice, & cucumber! The food at first tasted quite bland (too plain), but I used the table siracha to spicen it up a bit. The dumplings were really good though! Its a small store in between buildings, so you can miss it. It felt a little small inside.

    Went on a Saturday evening with my family. The place is small and feels homey. I ordered the Beef Bulgogi bibimbap that's loaded with a variety of veggies on top of a good portion of rice. If you are a fan of Nurungji (hangul: 누룽지) or scorched rice, then this is the place to go. The nurungji is cooked to perfection with just the right crisp without being burnt or stuck to the bottom of the stone bowl. I deducted one star because there was little to no A/C on when the temperature was 30 degrees that day.

    I really enjoyed the food here! I've been to a few bibimbap places and it's not always my favourite dish but I really liked it here. I got the bulgogi bibimbap with egg and it was very satisfying. I think it was the proportions of the different ingredients or the quality of the rice. I'd definitely come back!

    Very tasty! The beef bulgogi bibimbap was great, with lots of toppings. The dine in area is pretty small though, and very busy around lunch.

  • 4/5 Bredgy L. 11 months ago on Google
    Nine different vegetables inside this Bibimbap creates a wonderful texture, with tender pieces of pork and a well balanced sweet savory spicy bibimbap sauce.

  • 5/5 Anthony C. 1 year ago on Google
    A great place to visit if you are in a bibimbap mood. They have a alot of unique variations in protein choices and vegetables that you can't find in most traditional Korean restaurants.

  • 5/5 Fay K. 11 months ago on Google
    First time trying bibimbap and it was amazing. Really satisfying but not too heavy or hard on the stomach. Ordered takeout but from what I could tell the staff were super friendly and nice.

  • 4/5 Sukmin N. 11 months ago on Google
    Tastes were pretty good and the stone bowls came out very hot just the way dolsots should be. Found it...interesting that fried eggs are extra. I thought they were a standard ingredient for a bibimbap. The washroom could have been cleaner/checked more regularly. Someone had left an absolute mess behind and while I do not blame the owners for what a customer had done, it left behind a bad feeling after seeing it.

    Bibimbap was very aesthetic. Food was good but the amount was small for the price. The portion was just okay for lunch but would probably not be enough for dinner.

  • 4/5 Amie T. 9 months ago on Google
    Cozy little place for a quick meal. Service was good, food portion and flavor was ok

  • 5/5 muneeraaxo 1 year ago on Google
    First time trying the veggie Bibimbop, and it was DELICIOUS. So good I came back the next week to the day. Service was quick, pleasant, and the food was absolutely colourful and delicious. Would recommend. Doesn’t look like much from the outside but most great food spots usually are!

  • 5/5 Ria 1 year ago on Google
    Hidden gem! I absolutely love this Korean restaurant. We ordered Bulgogi bibimbap and kimchi pork with avocado on the top. It was really delicious and felt so healthy. The portion was great and the service was also nice! I definitely recommend it here and will visit again. Thank you👍🏻

    Delicious and nutritious. A well rounded meal priced at $15. Very fair for the area and fresh tasting. Love it!

  • 5/5 Flawnson T. 2 years ago on Google
    Solid bibimbap although a bit overpriced. The intimate interior makes for a perfect lunchtime spot or small dinner party. I ordered take out that came fast and fresh. The ingredients were marinated and cooked to the right doneness (including the fried egg!) and the ratio of meat to veg to rice was perfect. The eel and beef were delicious. I never felt like I had to ration a morsel of something to make for that satisfying last bite. Perfect for a quick lunch. Would come again!
