2018.04.17. My friend and I went downtown Calgary. We found the Korean Restaurant right across the street from Calgary Public Library. The name of the restaurant is Stone Bowl Korean Cuisine. It was our first time having food at this place. It’s a small Korean Restaurant, located at 615 Macleod Trail SE, Calgary. We arrived the restaurant around 12 pm which was right on their lunchtime. There are many people inside the restaurant. My friend and I have ordered different combos for lunch. I had spicy pork stone bowl with spicy beef soup. My friend ordered beef stone bowl with miso soup. After we ordered the food, we found a table to sit down. The soup came out the kitchen fast, but they were not hot. We waited for our stone bowls for while. They were well cooked and boiling hot. The stone bowls were very tasty and delicious. We enjoyed it. Highly Recommend this place for stone bowls. Do not order their soup. The soup was not hot and fresh,
A stone bowl of rice with a lot of toppings, pork topping is a little bit spicy. I enjoyed it, it’s tasty and will come back again to try some other dishes. The soup was not hot (warm) enough.
I am pretty hAngry and cold that I needed spicy food. I am particular with food that goes along with rice, so lets go Korean. Before I order, group of Korean people was having some fun and asked me if I do eat SPICY. I said, I Do. Then the guy took this hot sauce from the kitchen which is called Capsai Sin Hot Sauce. They offered me a piece of Donkasu and put one small drop of the sauce. Tell you, it was freaking hot but tolerable. Anyway, it's not part of the menu, you can't order the hot sauce, so lets move on. The restaurant served me with miso soup, rice and breaded pork chop on top and tea. The serving was pretty big so I guess if you are small eater like me (Ha) the serving is good to share for 2 people. The server also suggested for me to try the pork bone soup (if I got the name right) since that's one of their best seller and perfect for a cold weather. I will come back for their recommendation and a Japchae too. Watch out for coming up photos.
A fast food style place but restaurant quality food. I had their spicy pork with rice. Delicious, huge portion, good price, and friendly staff. The downside is that they only serve stone bowl at lunch hours. I went around 5 and did not get stone bowl and the selection was very limited. They said they serve the full menu before 3 PM. So the hours of full menu are not convenient unless you work in that area during the week.
Delicious and affordable food for a "mom and pop" style restaurant. I just wish they had more ingredients because when I got there (around 3pm), they were very limited on availability. I'm not sure if it was just an off day or if they try to same it for their evening rush. Love it, will be back.
I was so happy to have found this place last week. I stumbled on it and thought I would give it a try. Had their beef bibimbap and spicy beef soup...Delicious!Massive portions for the price, so you get your money's worth!
My coworker brought me to this place for lunch today. It is convienently location off 7th Ave-Ctrain line, half a block from the library. This Korean restaurant specializes in their Stone Bowls for their Bibimbap. They heat the stone bowls over a hot fire and put in rice, veggies and variety of different meats ex. spicy pork, beef, chicken and a sunny side up egg. the bowl remains hot the entire time while you enjoy your meal. The best part is to add the Gochujang sauce (spicy sauce) on top and mix it in.. always makes the dish. They have some seating if you want to stay to eat but not that many. I will definitely be back again.
The food was great I will definitely come back again but I wish the customer experience was better ... When I came in I was kinda greeted but instead of sitting then ordering , I was pushed to order and pay right away even though I was eating in ... It took a 5-10 mins to get my food or less but I was sadden by the fact no one asked me if it was my first time there or if I needed water or anything to drink .... I think this place has really good potential to have more customers if they take care of the customers they have coming in. Hopefully next time I come back it will be better...
Affordable and a different but interesting way to enjoy Korean food. It is more of an on-the-go takeout style, good for a convenient lunch with a few people (not so much for large groups).
Some of the best Korean I've had in Canada.. EXCELLENT. There were open today (Canada Day) and I stopped in, preferring not to brave the 50-deep lineups for food trucks at Fort Calgary, and am thrilled that I did. I got the spicy chicken with rice, glass noodles with beef, one perfect, delectable mandu (fried dumpling) and a few delicious pieces of green onion pancake, and a side of the most addictive sweet spicy pickles, house made. It was stunningly delicious- rich, deep flavour with a bit of spice. Everything on my plate was fantastic- and it was the unbelievable price of $8.95. I'd have paid twice that. This goes right into my favourites.
