Stopped by here tonight to get some takeout. The place doesn’t really lend itself to eating in, there’s only 5 seats. But you could eat in, if a spot is available. I nearly broke my neck stepping into the place because my shoes were wet and they don’t have a doormat or anything. So beware when stepping onto the tiles, in winter. We ordered 2 pork bone soups and a beef rice bowl. I asked the gentleman what the difference was between the rice bowls and the Bi Bim Bap. He just said different ingredients but wasn’t any more specific. I decided to give the rice bowl a whirl. They put the pork bones and soup in seperate containers because they give you loads of pork bone. Flavours were nice and the soup is quite spicy, yummy. The rice bowl was really interesting. It’s plain rice at the bottom, then there’s a lot of stuff placed on top. There’s the glass noodle, beef(that we chose), romaine, 2 dumplings, dried tofu and seaweed strips. Then they drizzle mayonnaise and hot pepper sauce on too. It sounds and looks a mess but it was really delicious and I would definitely order it again. The people working were both friendly and pleasant. The food is lovely and good value for money. The pork bone soup is only $ 6.95 and the beef rice bowl was $ 7.95. Only bad part is the tight entrance and bad parking at this plaza. I parked at a the Tim Hortons/Wendys next door and walked over. I can’t wait to come back again.

The food here is amazing! I loved it when they had a restaurant at Leslie and Finch and I was so happy when they opened up again. The food is always tasty and the owners are really nice. I would definitely recommend this to my friends!

Decided to pick up some food for my brother after studying. It was my first time here, I always saw it but never bothered to go inside. When I went in, I was greeted with multiple friendly hellos and smiles! The elderly male at the cash register was so friendly, he made me feel really welcome. Very nice service. :) I ordered the gamjatang(pork bone soup) and waited around 5mins. Got to choose 3 appetizers from a huge selection. The portions are big! The broth is delicious with the right amount of spice. The pork was tender and had a great flavour. It comes with seasoned rice and a whole potato. Overall, this place is great and I’m really glad I gave it a try. It’s gonna be my new go to place for pork bone soup!

We were greeted by a very kind and funny older couple who presumably run the place. We ordered the chicken rice bowl, small regular rice cakes, and bean sprout and seaweed sides. The chicken rice bowl was delicious. It had nicely-marinated chicken, rice, glass noodles, shredded potatoes, 2 dumplings. The dumplings were pretty bad, but they were just an addition to the rice bowl. We got the regular rice cakes. They also offer«special rice cakes» which are apparently higher quality rice cakes mixed with seafood. The rice cakes are the long cylindrical kind as opposed to the sliced ovals. They were good, but the only concern was that as soon as the rice cake sauce started to boil, it was poured into a styrofoam container… I’m not sure how healthy that is. The bean sprouts were pretty salty. They also don’t accept credit cards. Despite all of that, I would definitely go back if I’m in the area.

I’ve ordered a gamjatang and spicy rice cakes to go. The food was delicious, the price was great, and the service was excellent. They offer limited seats for dine-in, and they specialize in take-out. The place is clean, and the atmosphere itself feels warm and welcoming. I would recommend people coming here to try out their food.

3.5 stars + .5 for nice service :) Came here today with my dad for a quick lunch. They only have 5 seats total(3 booth seats, 1 table for 2), so you’ll probably have to take out unless you get here a little early like we did. I got a regular-sized bibimbap and my dad got the standard gamjatang(pork bone soup). You get a choice of 3 different banchan per meal. We ended up with 3 different types of kimchi(cucumber, two different cabbages), potato salad, little marinated fish, and bean sprouts. The regular-sized bibimbap was a behemoth of a meal, coming in a super hot stone bowl which made some of rice nice and crackly. They used brown rice as well which is more healthy. It was loaded with ingredients including lettuce, carrot, beansporut, zucchini, seaweed, a fried egg, marinated beef, onions, bell peppers, etc. One of my favourite ways to get multiple servings of veggies! Remember to add a healthy dose of gochujang to make it more delicious. My father’s pork bone soup had a delicious taste to it and the meat was tender. It was good that it was actually rather spicy and it made me sweat a little. That’s how a gamjatang should be! But not everyone likes spiciness, so be warned. The highlight of this was definitely the flavourful broth.

100% Korean a new takeout place in Scarborough. 100% Korean does sounds familiar? This restaurant used to locate at the Chinese Plaza at Leslie and Finch. This new location is opened by the daughter that used to own the North York restaurant. The menu here though is a lot simpler. A noodle, a rice bowl and maybe some snacks? They do have a lunch bento box offers. Spicy Sweet Chicken Snack Size($ 3.99) was meh. The batter was heavy and soggy and sad thing it was not cooked when ordered so it was warm and sad. Spicy Chewy Noodle($ 6.99) was quite refreshing and I love the chewiness of the noodle. Great cold noodle dish during hot summer days. Room for improvement but promising for a small neighbourhood Korean takeout. Grand Opening 15% off Special.
