A cozy, humble restaurant that serves up pretty incredible Korean fare. Complimentary kimchi (amazing, with just the right amount of heat), seasoned bean sprouts (absolutely addictive), seasoned radish (refreshing and tangy), and deep fried tofu were quickly brought to the table. To start we ordered the panfried dumplings (10 for $10.95) - beautifully crisp exterior with a deeply savoury meat filling: really, really good. For our main courses we shared the pha jeon ($18.95) and beef bulgogi ($14.95). The bulgogi arrived sizzling on a platter, accompanied with plenty of fresh lettuce. The meat was meltingly tender and subtly sweet. The pha jeon was fluffy with deliciously crisp edges, stuffed with tons of delicious seafood. I'll definitely be back!
It's a small cozy family restaurant. 4 complimentary appies are all tasty especially the pickled white carrot and fried tofu. My husband really enjoyed Pork Bulgogi. And Yukkejang with rice is highly recommended if you don't mind spicy. Traditional Korean noodle soup is not bad if you want sth light.
This is a super friendly, family-run restaurant where the food is delicious and the prices are reasonable. I love eating here! It's one of our regular spots for a delicious, after-work meal.
One of my go to restaurants! The bibimbap and beef bulgogi are my favourites. The short rib bulgogi is also really good. Friendly service. Best to make a reso.
My friend had the Bow Bulgogi House on his restaurant wishlist for a while, so he made us a reservation for 7pm on a Friday evening and we checked it out. The strip mall is quite busy, with a lot of other businesses also open during the dinner hours so I had to park down one of the streets in the residential area – not a big deal – only a couple blocks walk. The small restaurant was packed, and all through the evening there were people waiting outside to come in. Based on the food I’m not surprised there was always a line of folks waiting for a table. At least they take reservations!
Korean and Vietnamese fusion place that switched owners a few times. I usually come here just for the spicy squid on rice and the vermicelli tomato noodle. That soup is perfect for a hang over. I order number 53. People should try it out! It's different than most of the other noodle soups. They mix it with fish balls, shrimps, fresh onions but fake crab meat.
It was good and tasty food! 👍🏾 Delicious beef bulgogi. Tiny restaurant so seating is limited, parking is also limited but you're inner city so it's expected.
Came here to try their iced noodle dish. I've seen pictures and noticed most restaurants offer it during the warmer seasons, and this seemed to be only place that offered it in November and year round.
All my years of eating Korean food, this was the dish that I have not ever tried, and I felt like being adventurous. Ordered the mool naeng myon. The iced juiced reminded me of alcohol. Its definitely an acquired taste. I wasn't a fan, and when the owner/chef lady walked by and saw that I didn't finish my dish, she asked if everything was ok, and seemed very disappointed that I didn't finish. I felt so bad! but still love the restaurant. I've tried their BBQ meats and truly authentic. Staff and service is fantastic.
Parking is limited though. Very small humble restaurant.
This is an easy and budget-friendly way to start eating healthy again after the binging of the holidays(no judgment!). I definitely imbibed, overate, over-drank(sorry liver!) and used my holidays to the max. I am pretty sure I have the 30-something equivalent to bed sores, but I am proud of reading 5 novels in 6 days and spending time with good friends going sledding, hiking, and cooking in the kitchen.
Such great food and service. The family that runs the place is great. I go every month or so to get my fix. The food pricing is reasonable and I've tried their beef and LA bulgogi and I am a huge fan. Their sides are delicious, they are included with your meals. You get rice, kim chi, daikon salad and bean sprout salad with the bulgogi plus lettuce wraps (except the LA style). I love the daikon salad, I always order an additional serving because it's just too good, I usually eat the whole thing before the main dish comes out. Their appetizers are all pretty good, I think the only things I wouldn't order again are the pancake and the deep fried shrimp. Try the roasted tofu, so delicious! I get it every time. Definitely going to keep coming, it's a big favourite!
My favourite place for Korean in town. Service is unbeatable and food is amazing. They have a lunch special as well which is perfect value!
Amazing flavours and atmosphere. The staff is incredibly friendly and they seem to have their heads on straight to serve their guests in the best ways possible. My only gripe is something that is probably a good thing in hindsight, but with this being a really small dining room, you might want to try to make a reservation or be prepared for a wait if you're going for a weekend dinner.
Ps, best Kimchi I've had yet!
An unassuming hole in the wall with fabulous food. The service is also great! Would highly recommend the Galbi and the beef bulgogi. They come with rice, lettuce, and lots of side dishes and make for a very filling meal.
The husband says we must give Bow Bulgogi House 5 stars! The food was good. That kimbab lasted all of 2 minutes lol. There were a few issues with the rest of the food, but we still left fully satisfied, having enjoyed our meal very much. The 5 stars are really because of the fabulous service we received from a very busy front of house guy. He was amazing. Truly enjoyed our time here and would probably make if a go to spot for Korean food if it weren't on the complete opposite side of the city!
Like all the previous reviews it’s a FACT! This place has amazing service! The family who owns and operates treats you amazing like welcoming us into their home! We had the short ribs, squid, and beef as well as dumplings and glass noodles with a little Soju to wash it all down. The food was mind blowing good!! Flavourful with great texture and spice! Fresh ingredients oh and did I mention amazing service!!!! We will definitely be back! Thank you for making our fathers birthday a memorable and special one!!!
We have been coming to this restaurant for more than 20 years. It was one of the first Korean BBQ spots we had ever been to. It's still a benchmark for every other one we try.
Support local business and check out this spot. The tofu appetizer is not to be missed.
Also they have the best lunch special in the history of lunch specials
We loved this place!!! Service was amazing. They added extra spice when requested and made the dish to our taste😊. Having worked and lived in Korea prior, this food was just like being back to the places we loved 😊! Would give this 10 stars if I could.
The best Korean food my family and I have ever had. We’ve been coming here for almost 20 years now and it is always absolutely delicious. If you have not been here please try it out. You won’t be disappointed.
