    Always good meats and services. For me, the best Korean BBQ place in Toronto. Wine list is not big but good selection with reasonable range. But also thank you for allowing for BYO.

    Such a great experience with delicious cuisine. We did the tasting $135pp. Gave us a great intro to Takju. Wonderful seafood tower, delicious grilled veg and side mushroom rice, and incredible grilled meat at our table: pork, wavu, hanger steak and short ribs. Every bite delightfully good. The dessert was something called Bingsoo, a shaved ice with cream - blue berry and a coffee flavoured variety. Insanely good and light. We will be back soon!!

    Skilled cooking & serving at the table over built in brass barbecue pit, it's not a gimmick, it's lovely. Everything is served for the whole table, and taken from the barbecue to each person's plate by the server. Also, cooked to each person's preference, right there in front of you. Quality of ingredients exceptional, some unusual items, such as giant wild shrimp. Friendly, helpful service, but a little difficult to hear as the noise ambience is high. Tasty vegan side dishes come automatically, but if you like vegetables, it would be best to double order them for the barbecue, even though the waiter may tell you one order is enough for a table. Second orders of anything come easily & quickly. Our table especially loved the seafood pancake, which was about an inch and a half high & loaded with veggies & seafood, the Hawaiian whitefish, whose name I forget, and the coffee hazelnut dessert.
