A little basement restaurant serving authentic Korean food with a very authentic atmosphere (Cute Korean chopstick boxes and K-pop plays in the background here. They even have cute stickers on the washroom stalls and little cartoons). Service is excellent - I came with my family, ordered bibimbap which was delicious. Tried the broth of the Kam Ja Tang and it was excellent - option here to make it extra spicy if you can handle it. We received a vegetable pancake on the house, it was nice and crispy. Seems like a family run business, the staff are very friendly.
When my friends want to eat Korean food, we usually go to Buk Chong Dong. But since I was in Chinatown the zomato app directed me here. Hidden in a basement, it's very hard to find. The orange sign will help. Spicy tofu soup is just as good here than the others. The beef short ribs were so tender and juicy I'm drooling just thinking about it. Next time your craving spicy soup, this is the hot spot that you should check out. They have now gained a new loyal customer.
Came here through the recommendation of @ friend. I ordered the black bean noodle and my friend ordered the same thing, but hot pot version.
It was super flavorful and tasty! Loved every bite of it. The only downfall is when there is no more food left.
Definitely a place to check out! It's a bit hidden, but for sure worth it.
Have a variety of tastes, from savory to sweet to spicy. Good portion sizes, especially with the pork bone soup. Some beers in stock as well. Atmosphere best suited for casual dinner with friends, probably not a date place (there were like 45 spots)
Spent two years in Korea and was missing the food. Came here and was a very happy girl when I left! Delicious meal, friendly service, and good side dishes. Almost as good as being in Korea!
Super cheap delicious food. Service is very friendly. Quiet place and good for dining on your own or large groups.

Try the spicy chicken bimbimbap in a hot stone bowl, so tasty and filling!
A very pleasant surprise. Food is good, large portions, and 7 side dishes for me! Great variety in one meal and they are all well done! It's a new staple place of mine. Never busy either, unlike the chaos of other Chinatown restaurants during a lunch time.
Large portions, small price. I've been there twice and each time the service and the quality was consistent and amazing. Their servings are incredibly large, and I came out the store having eaten too much, paying only 6$ for dinner as I shared with a 4 other people. The side dishes were plentiful (more than 6), and are also seasonal.
As for the atmosphere, the restaurant is never full and there was no line-up (I went on weeknights friday and saturday). The latest korean songs are always playing in the background, filling up the silence that occurs when you're too busy eating.
I'll be there again this week!
Good Korean food. I go here on a regular basis. What I like:
- Tasty food
- Large selection of side dishes (usually 6-8 given)
- Wide variety on the menu
It's a great place to jump in and grab a quick meal. For the price range, among the better places to get Korean food.
One quick note, CLEARLY the other reviewer below works for Ka Chi or has some stake in their business. Looking at their review history, they seem to have only joined Urbanspoon just to badmouth Seor Ak San. That's pretty sad.
