    I would give it a 3.5 stars. Taste good and a quick bite that is filling. I would say I would prefer to have a proper meal if you are going for the more expensive rice dog. We spent $40 for 4 of us. Maybe there are better option if you pay a little more. Staffs are friendly and taking time to explain to us.

    This tiny shop makes the most delicious Korean Style Hotdogs that are made with a sticky and chewy rice dough! I ordered the the Chungchun (Original Hotdog), the Gamsung (Potato) Hotdog), Mozzarella Cheese Hotdog with Flakes, and the Ramen chips Hotdog! I tried to get different sauce combinations, with everything from spicy mayo to garlic butter dust to even sugar. I loved every last bite! The hot dogs are tasty, the dough is an amazing texture and the outside is SO CRISPY! My favourite was definitely the Mozzarella Cheese Hotdog with Flakes. The flake topping is actually so fire. I just wish they’d let you get them on the classic hotdog, as I could only eat the half of the hotdog with no cheese. Nevertheless, this Chungchun is a MUST try if you are in the Toronto area!

    Super quick and easy pick up and these tasted Amazing definitely worth the tripThese were great quality and super filling. This was an excellent treat and I'd highly recommend this place if you're in the area and looking for a solid treat for yourself. Really popular place with a twist on your traditional corn dog. The potato one was definitely interesting and so was the mozzarella with hot dog.Though be warned that one is actually half half... Like cheese on top and dog on the bottom which was kind of weird. Simply DELICIOUS! Wow I am still blown away by this place. I got the mozzarella cheese dog, with potatoes on the outside. So good.There was a bit of a line but it wasn’t bad at all, and they also have a very organized way of managing the lines. I will definitely return, I’m already craving it!I recommend this place for my firends

    They tasted great, and prices are reasonable for the size of the serving you get. I tried the potato one, the double cheese and the ramen covered ones, and they were all good. Lots of different options and sauces available, and you can add some toppings as well of you want something a little different. There was a line when I went, but they've got it fairly organized with separate ordering and pickup lines, as well an a number system with a digital sign for people waiting outside, so you know when your order is ready without having to crowd inside. Definitely worth trying! The lines moved pretty quick, so don't be discouraged if you see a lot of people waiting.

    Amazing food. I ordered the humble regular dog and it was made perfectly. Very crunchy on the outside, the coating was cooked just right, with the interior being fluffy like freshly baked white bread. The dog was itself excellent, nice and juicy. Very well executed. Staff was extremely nice and interior is nice and bright and tidy.

    I tried the halal chicken option with potatoes, Chipotle sauce, and honey mustard. This was my first time trying Korean style hotdogs. It was very tasty. Make sure to get some sauce on it or else it might not taste as good. Please add more halal options.

    Delicious Korean style corn dogs with unique dressings and toppings. You can choose whether it's beef-filled, or your regular hot dog meat. There is even squid ink available for those adventurous foodies. Overall quick service, good customer service, and delicious Asian style corn dogs!

    Embarking on a gustatory adventure, I found myself drawn into the enchanting world of Korean-style corn dogs, and what a delightful discovery it turned out to be! With an array of options before me, I surrendered to the allure of the halal chicken corn dog, embraced the temptation of the exclusively chocolate-infused delight, and savored the symphony of flavors in the corn dog combo. This experience marked my inaugural encounter with Korean-style corn dogs, and it was an absolute treat for the senses. 🌭🍫🎉 The journey began with the halal chicken corn dog, a tantalizing creation that left an indelible impression. From the very first bite, it was evident that this was a masterpiece of culinary craftsmanship. The crisp outer layer gave way to a succulent interior, revealing tender pieces of halal chicken enveloped in a golden corn batter. The play of textures and the harmonious mingling of flavors were truly a work of art, captivating both my taste buds and my heart. Venturing into uncharted territory, I embraced the intrigue of the only chocolate corn dog. With a mix of excitement and curiosity, I allowed my senses to explore this unconventional fusion. The outcome was nothing short of sensational—each bite seamlessly blended the richness of chocolate with the savory corn batter, creating a delightful and unexpected dance of flavors. This daring creation was a testament to the boundless creativity that defines the world of culinary innovation. 🍫🌽🎊 However, the true crescendo of this culinary symphony was the corn dog combo. This masterpiece exemplified the art of harmonizing flavors and textures. With each bite, I experienced the symphonic interplay between the succulent halal chicken corn dog and the delightfully sweet chocolate iteration. The way these distinct flavors complemented and enhanced each other was a true testament to the culinary expertise that had gone into curating this symphony of taste. Yet, a hidden secret awaited discovery—a revelation that elevates these already extraordinary creations to an entirely new level. "Make sure to get some sauce on it or else it might not taste as good," a nugget of wisdom that echoed in my thoughts. I heeded this advice and embarked on a delightful saucing adventure, enhancing the flavors beyond imagination. Each dip was like a stroke of flavor magic, transforming these corn dogs into an enchanting gastronomic delight. 🌭🍫🌽✨ In retrospect, my debut into the world of Korean-style corn dogs was a captivating journey of flavors and sensations. Each corn dog was a testament to the ingenuity and passion that drive culinary artistry. As I bid adieu to this unforgettable experience, I did so with a heart brimming with gratitude for the creators who brought these flavors to life. This adventure was a reminder that food, when crafted with care and innovation, has the power to create moments of sheer delight. 🌭🍫🎨👨‍🍳

    Solid corn dogs! Have had them many times before, but this time, I tried their new menu items: soy garlic chicken wings with waffle fries and mac & cheese bites. It came with 8 wings, which were nicely seasoned. Waffle fries were great - very crispy. The most underwhelming were the mac & cheese bites, which were pretty plain. The new items are 20% off until the end of July, so would recommended giving them a try now!

    The food is yummy! Ordered two poutine hotdogs and they were good! All cheese, so next time I’ll be ordering one with an actual hotdog :). Also if you download the app, you can get some sort of discount. I got bogo 50% off! Spent just under $16 for 2.

    Me and my friend went out Saturday night, January 15. Take note this day was freezing, it was like -20°c and feels like -25 or -30. I know how long usually they take to complete your order but it's fine because their food never disappoints, its hella good. I'm giving them 5 stars because I ordered 6 corndogs and it only took less than 10 minutes and right after paying, they'd give you small heat pouches. Honestly it barely worked that night cause it was really cold but it is very much appreciated because they are aware pf how cold it is and they try their best to give your order as fast as they can. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO GRAB A SNACK.

    I LOVE Korean corn dogs -- they are so chewy, saucy, customizable, and they are a full meal in their own right! Personally, I love Chungchun's the best 🤤 If you're turned off by American corndogs, don't let that stop you from giving these a try, they will probably surprise you!!

    Really popular place with a twist on your traditional corn dog. The potato one was definitely interesting and so was the mozzarella with hot dog... Though be warned that one is actually half half... Like cheese on top and dog on the bottom which was kind of weird. I would've expected it to be like both throughout. They are very generous with the sauce which gives it a lot more flavor and tones down the oily feel.

    Just get the volcano. It’s the best one to be honest 😂 I’ve tried them all! Personal preference and recommendation! When I come to this area, I always come around here to grab one! It’s a nice snack!

    I ordered the original and ramen version they average about $5 each. It’s a nice snack to have once in a while. It’s a fancy version of the pogo corn dogs you find in the stores.

    Had the opportunity to try many of the rice dogs on the menu & settled on my favourite being the “Half Mozzarella” with “Ramen Chips”. If this is your first time trying this place be prepared for an amazing cheese pull! Also despite the looks of it one rice dog is fairly filling. Great customer service & timely service despite being very busy!

    Very fast service, lots of options, and variety to choose from, just wish they also had a corn dog with half chicken half cheese. As a lot of the options are beef or pork. Teri sugar is a great topping, I just get it without the sugar!

    Chungchun was like a nice warm breeze on a chilly Toronto evening. The service was personable and very friendly, the variety and novelty were intriguing and the rice dog tasted great. I really appreciate the fine details they put into their food, specifically around the takeout boxes. The box folds up small enough to hold yet cushiony enough so that my two hotdogs remained completely unscathed despite a rather long and arduous journey home. Not to mention the well thought out labelling on the boxes which really sold the idea that this wasn’t just any random rice dog, but one made out of passion. I was also offered some very tasty sauces served in to go containers which I thought was a really nice touch 👌. I will be back!

    Love this place!! The staff are super friendly and fast. Their batter is amazing and has the perfect amount of crunch! Really nice minimal packing for take-out. We tried the fresh pineapple juice as well on our second visit and it was very refreshing. Definitely recommend giving them a try. Hoping they open more locations!

    Pretty good corn dogs. Always consistent quality. Their dough and breading is excellent but I think their cheese could be better. If the line gets too long I wouldn’t wait I’d just go to another spot.

    The original/classic. Fast service, they give you hand warmers to keep you warm outside. The vegetarian dog is pretty good, I like the selection of sauces and sauce combos.

    Stopped by chungchun rice dog and don't be turned away by the large amounts of people standing outside, there are two lines: one to order and one to wait to pick up the rice dogs. I got the mozzarella and sausage rice dog and there's a sign at the front that provides you sauce combinations to add over top. Rice dogs were hot and fresh, would come back and try other ones!

    First time trying corn dog. I was craving for a very long time. Chungchun Rice Dog was the best place for corn dogs. Tasty and fancy.

    Super convenient location for the nearby condos. Very nice staff, they are polite, patient and fast. There are some benches outside to sit which is good when the weather is nice. Lot’s of different choices. The corndogs are always yummy and crispy. Unfortunately the single to-go boxes are not sustainable.

  • 2/5 Kanav S. 1 year ago on Google
    No sitting arrangement doesn't matter how cold it is outside they don't have space for sit and eat and the product they serve taste best if consumed as fast as you can. The prices are really very very high even though the raw materials are expensive still 1 rice hotdog should not be $7. The quality of the food has drastically decreased from the time it was launched the oil they use smells now which makes the rice dog taste bitter.

  • 5/5 Ghazal K. 1 year ago on Google
    A little pricey but so worth it. Delicious rice dogs that are made fairly quickly and I love that there are so many topping options too! Friendly employees, delicious food, and very filling!

  • 4/5 Bailey L. 1 year ago on Google
    I ordered Squid Ink Cheese and Sweet Potato. They are well done made; crunchy and maybe a bit too salty. Personally, I wouldn’t put hot sauce and cheddar cheese seasonings again (probably that’s why it’s a bit saltier than the last time I visited)

  • 5/5 Kathy N. 1 year ago on Google
    Cannot get enough of this place! The batter is so good and chewy! They totally nailed it. Any of the cheese dogs will knock your socks off. The squid ink one doesn’t have a distinct squid ink flavour so probably my least recommended option on the menu.

  • 5/5 Gabriel 2 years ago on Google
    Korean style corn dogs with a variety of customizable sauces. The place has relatively fast service but is constantly busy. No available seating area as it's a grab and go kinda place. Had the mozzarella cheese hotdog which was tasty. This location is open late as well.

  • 5/5 Parksem 2 years ago on Google
    I like it hoping one near my home opens up soon ! I tried ramen hot dog for the first time. The sausage i side is really yummy

  • 5/5 Rachel R. 2 years ago on Google
    I really like chungchun. The prices are really reasonable giving that their rice dogs are huge. My personal favourite is the ramen dog. It’s also super fun picking your toppings - when you order there’s a list of sauces and toppings that you can choose from.

  • 5/5 Macey 2 years ago on Google
    Super quick and easy pick up and these tasted AMAZING. definitely worth the trip. The chocolate flavour was also pleasantly delicious and the volcano dog had just the right amount of spiciness. These were great quality and super filling. This was an excellent treat and I'd highly recommend this place if you're in the area and looking for a solid treat for yourself. It's a nice change from the regular street meat.
