Being a Korean-Chinese restaurant, Ga Hyung Ru serves something different from the usual affairs: bulgogi, BBQ, or hot pot, etc. Instead, this quaint eatery serves predominantly noodles and rice dishes; something more homey. Seafood, Pork and Black Bean Sauce on Noodle – $12.75. It appears that the black bean sauce is one of their specialties. It had strong flavours of bean paste (obviously) and caramelized onions. The pork and seafood (which was just shrimp) were hard to see in the dark sauce, but the textures were definitely there. Overall, the sauce wasn’t too salty, and it struck a perfect balance with the noodles. Speaking of which, the noodles were quite tasty, and had a good springy texture.
My new favorite Korean restaurant. My wife found this place through a blog. It's easy to drive to and there's always parking. Kid friendly (high chair for toddler). Prices are great. Portions are large. Nothing fancy but good ol' Korean comfort food. The area is quiet and peaceful. This around-the-corner restaurant is great for families. Service was always courteous and prompt. I enjoyed my meal and left satisfied with the whole experience. I like it.
Korean style chinese food. Try the black bean noodles. It's delicious. Try also their spicy seafood soup noodles. It'll burn your mouth and other parts of your body. But it's the good kind of burning sensation. Try also their sweet and sour pork. Actually, try all three of them. They usually offer them in a combo.
Cute small quaint good value and authentic mom and pop Korean restaurant. I love that there are small pickled side dishes that come with your meal. Be prepared to share as its meant more for family style eating.
Went to this place on a weekday evening, no line ups, Korean style Chinese food seemed interesting, ordered a Sam Sung Ja Jang Myun, it was delicious and it came with two free appetizers, Kimchi and pickled Daikon which was also delicious, good restaurant, I would recommend this place for anyone looking for Korean food in North Vancouver.
One of best Korean-Chinese restaurant in town. Their kanpoonggi & jamppong are highly recommended :p
Delicious Korean food!. Don't listen to the person saying this isn't Korean food, they don't know anything. Hamjibak specializes in Jajangmyun (black bean noodle) and Jjampong (spicy seafood noodle). The origin of Jajangmyun is indeed from China but the dish and ingredients themselves are different in the Korean version. In fact, jajangmyun has a long history and is a staple food in Korea. If you have ever been to Korea or have ever watched any Korean tv shows, you have probably seen it being eaten.
As for the quality of the food at Hamjibak, it is really delicious! The amount of jajangmyun you can get for $8 will make you incredibly full. The kanpongi and tongsuyuk is also topnotch! I highly recommend eating here.
Loved it!. I remember going to kareoke across the street and wanting to try this place, but it was pretty empty inside so we decided against it. BIG MISTAKE! Got the sweet and spicy deep fried chicken and spicy stir fried squid (i think it was called?) and i cannot be more satisfied. definitely going back.
