Ive been to this place handful of times the last time I went with a group of 10 the food was not bad. Although the service was absolutely nerve-wracking. The servers were rude, inpolitely told us to be removed from out seats for changing the grill. The manager told us to shut off the burner fearing we would waste the gas. They could really use some common sense to be a little more careful when they deal with the customers. Rudeness seems to be a common thing from the workers.

Probably one of the best Korean restaurant in the area. Tucked west on Finch, it’s always packed during dinner time and on weekends. Biggity big portions!

Om nom nom. Warm and full and happy. Came right before the lunch rush. We were one of two tables occupied. It started to fill up about midway into our lunch though. Service is efficient, but not in a brusque way. Fairly pleasant, actually. Interesting thing to note: chopsticks and spoons are self serve from a container at the table. The chopsticks are disposable, but the spoons are metal. Side note: If you sit at the booths close to the door and the door opens, it can get chilly(but it’s alright if you have a piping hot stew in front of you). Had: Black goat stew($ 12) — single portion. Came with purple rice. Oddly enough, my rice came when they brought the banchan to the table(about 5 – 10 minutes before my stew came out). What that meant was that my rice got to cool down before my stew came. Not a good thing, but something I can live with because my stew was still boiling when it came to the table. Goat stew had a lot of bean sprouts in it. I thought there wasn’t that much goat, but there was a decent amount. It was shredded and boneless goat, for those of you who dislike having bones in your meat. It was quite tender, and had a mild goat taste. Soup was spicy and delicious. Love that they sprinkled perilla seeds on top. I like the crunch. Dolsot bibimbap($ 10) — What I really like is that the dolsot bibimbap and the regular bibimbap are the same price. Dolsot is the one in the stone bowl, for those of you who aren’t familiar with the term. It usually costs a dollar more than its non stone bowl counterpart. Big bowl of bibimbap. My mom only finished about half of it. Banchan: 7 dishes here, which is a plus in my books. Kimchi, radish kimchi, sprouts, wakame salad, pickled radish, spicy fish cake slices, and dried anchovies and peanuts in a seasoned soy sauce. Awesome bonus: These prices are tax(but not tip) included. Yep. Their menu prices are exactly what you pay(sans tip)!

24⁄7 blessssss these places because man I love me some Korean food! So this place is quite packed whenever I go so be warn! The food here is quite good! I had the pork cutlet and it is a fairly decent size compared to other Korean places! They have a seating area with no chairs so you take your shoes off and sit. Another area is with chairs, which is much better in my opinion(since I have big thighs). It does seem a bit small hence it can be quite packed at times. There is another 24⁄7 Korean place nearby but I think this one is much better then that one. The side dishes are similar to most Korean restaurants. They didn’t bring us any tea or cups or any sort. Even when they gave us chopsticks and spoons there wasn’t any napkins and anything said from the waiter. He just dropped it down and went back to the middle and just watched people. Will probably come back here again. Hoping for better service!

This place is not bad for a 24hr place, certainly better than the other 24/hr places at yonge and finch, like dingy kayagum and barely-passing-their-health-inspection pyung won house. The restaurant is large, for a korean place, Half the restaurant is normal seating, the other half is traditional ground seating, which is a bit uncomfortable since the tables seem smaller than usual. If you’re a normal sized asian or bigger, this isn’t going to work well for you. My boyfriend was definitely bending and twisting into every shape before he got(barely) comfortable. The service is blunt, but at least they’re quick. The food came fairly fast but nobody brought us napkins or even water. They just put two spoons on the bare table, which is not cool. The workers are all busy even though they’re definitely not understaffed. They’re very rushed and that’s not good, because one ended up dropping a whole 24 case of bottled beer, which made a huge mess and commotion. R e l a x ! The food is good though. Kalbi tang was very warm, soothing and tasty. Boyfriend surely enjoyed his donkatsu. Portions are large and the side dishes are fresh and tasty. I definitely want to come back to try the korean bbq!

Came here on a Tuesday at like 5:30 am since me and my boyfriend couldn’t sleep and wanted Korean stew. Flies everywhere and the side dishes did not seem fresh. Really didn’t enjoy the meal. It’s too bad. I’d like a good Korean restaurant that’s open 24 – 7.

The service here can be a little slow sometimes considering how busy the place is, because there aren’t enough servers. But aside from that, the food here is the bomb! The dukbokki, tonkatsu and soondae stew are all delish! Best part is that it’s open 24 hours for those who want a quick meal late at night!

I went there with my boyfriend yesterday for dinner. The place is really nice and clean but seems constantly queuing up. We had our seat at the traditional Korean table where you have to curl your legs to seat. It is an interesting dining experience but a little bit uncomfortable. We ordered a beef BBQ combo and a seafood pancake. The seafood pancake is soooo good! The pancake was made with lots of seafood, green onion and eggs and the pancake sauce is so yummy. The Beef BBQ came with a spicy tofu soup and two bowl of rice. The beef is very fresh and the portion is enough for two ppl. Btw, Their beef intestine BBQ looks so yummy as well as the spicy seafood stew. I will definitely come back and try soon! And the best part is this restaurant is just beside the Coco tea shop! So you can takeout some bubble tea while you are queuing up for the seat. I ordered a large milk green tea with pudding(all-time favorite). And their new Yakult bubble tea is a great choice after the grease BBQ meal.

This is my first time here and I must say I’m a bit disappointed with this place. I came in for Korean grill but very limited options for beef. I ordered short ribs but got strips and the waitress dumped the entire serving on the gas stove(as shown in pic) All the while we’ve had servers come over to our table and turn off the stove without saying a word, leaving us wondering how should we continue cooking the food! I wouldn’t recommend based on their service.

I’ve been a regular here for a long time, but I’ve never wrote a review. However, events today have really pushed me to write one. To begin, the food is fantastic, although it can be a bit inconsistent in taste at times. Service is typical Asian resto style — quick, curt, but efficient. However, if you don’t mind the«ok» service, don’t let it stop you from trying out their food. Their prices are very reasonable as well. The reason I am giving Huh Ga Né 2 stars is mostly because of the service I received today. The restaurant was packed as usual, and we just finished our meal. Our table was on the upper seating area(where we had to leave our shoes at the bottom). As we left to go pay for our meal, I began looking for my shoes but much to my dismay they were NOTTHERE. I’m gonna give whoever took my shoes the benefit of the doubt, and assume that they accidentally took my shoes. I’m also gonna assume that the person is a girl with pretty small feet, because I don’t think a grown ass man would want my shoes. Anyway, I approached the waitresses with my dilemma, and told them that someone may have taken my shoes. They were understandably confused, but were too busy to give a crap and quickly forgot about me, leaving me to stand barefoot on the floor like an idiot. I’m a reasonable person, I wasn’t mean nor accusing because I knew it was obviously not their fault that some idiot took my shoes. What I was upset about was that no one really tried to help me out! I had to wave down the waitress again and explain to them that I have no way of getting home, because no way in heck am I WALKINGBAREFOOT home! And that I need someone to do something NOW. The guy at the cashier(I’m assuming the owner’s son), was the most infuriating. He had no idea what to do with me, mostly just standing around absolutely confused out of his mind. Finally, one of the employees had the bright idea of lending me some slippers(yay!), and I proceeded to ask him if I could leave my number with them, just in case the person decides to return my shoes. We were contemplating whether to just leave the restaurant without paying, because we were just so upset with the whole situation. However, after some consideration we decided we would just pay for our meal anyway since it wasn’t really their fault that my shoes were stolen. However, we refused to leave any tips because I was just so angry at the whole situation. I have always been understanding of their service because of how busy they are, but events today have really made me reconsider that. Maybe the fact that they don’t speak English all that well may have made the situation more difficult to process, but still there was no reason to just ignore me! I feel that when something happens to your customer(no matter how extraordinary the situation), it is your responsibility to step up and do something about it. Just don’t leave me standing there and hope I’ll just leave so that you won’t need to deal with the problem, because NO, I won’t leave. So to the Girly that took my Navy Blue Toms, GIVETHEMBACK! I left my number with the restaurant just in case you have the conscience to return what is not yours! I have a feeling I know which customer took my shoes, so if you happen to read this, return my shoes! If I ever see you on the street, I will not hesitate to ask you about it! Don’t say I didn’t warn you!

Pork BBQ also comes with a tofu soup and rice. The price is reasonable for $ 30. They have traditional korean table. We also ordered pork bone soup, it is very good! The great thing is they open 24 hours.

The restaurant is clean and accommodating for large groups of people. Servers are pretty Korean, as in they are more comfortable speaking Korean. Regardless, everything on the menu has an english translation. They offer a large variety of Korean food. Mainly hot soups, and traditional favorites like bibimbap and ddukbokki. Pretty good side dishes~ I recommend the mackerel dish. Bulgogi jungol is very delicious. So is the soondae guk. Rice is purple and yummy. More than good enough for the price! Come with someone who knows Korean so you can flag the waitresses down for refills.

I arrived at the restaurant around 6:05pm. The place was PACKED. When I got the menu, I understood why: the price was cheap for the quality and quantity of the food. I ordered pork bone soup for $ 8, which came along with many side dishes. All of them were so delicious. The rice was purple. Purple rice is one of my favourite! I was actually surprised that they didn’t serve plain white rice. Although the place was very busy, the waitress wasn’t rude or robotic. She actually smiled and made a conversation with me and my friend. Overall, my experience here was great.

My friend and I were meeting in the area and we got a recommendation for this place. Did not know it was open 24 hours! The place was insanely busy with people waiting outside for tables. We got there early so we didnt have to wait long(around 6:30pm), but by the time we were leaving, there were a lot of people waiting. The inside is pretty cool with people eating hot pots, sharing food at the elevated tables so you need to take off your shoes, and a different area for shoes on. Our service was was quick and to the point. When we sat for a little too long for their taste, we were handed the bill on the table without words. HST is included — wow! I was surprised that the menu had simplified chinese on it, and thought maybe this place was run by mainland Chinese, but it’s hard to tell if were because all the servers were korean and everything felt it(joint venture? Great marketing?) My friend had a dumpling soup($ 8). The dumpling was just okay but the soup was really good. I had the kalbi(beef short ribs)($ 19) and it came on a sizzling plate with scissors. The portion was large but i thought i wouldnt be able to finish everything when it came, but oh I totally did. Really liked the place!

BBQ sirloin beef with lettuce wrap and rice $ 40 Came with a tofu soup and a bunch of side dishes all pretty good The beef was not really fresh as I have seen in other places The cuts of meat were frozen and many pieces were frozen together A super filling meal for two people and it probably would have fed three

I only ventured into Huh Ga Né because my Korean friend told me that the owner of «Lim Ga Né» sold his business and opened up «Huh Ga Né» instead. After coming here for dinner last Friday, I can confirm that the original chef does not make the dishes here. The sweet & sour pork appeared as if it was re-heated. The pork was supposed to be deep-fried first, but it tasted soggy. The sauce was clumpy with jello-like texture. There’s around 8 side dishes that comes with the meal, I almost wished I just ordered rice! We also ordered the fatty pork lettuce wrap(not sure what the Korean name is) — the pork was sliced thinner than other places and not fatty enough(according to my Korean friends). To sum it up, the meat was not juicy at all and the dish would have been very dry if not for the kimchi. We were seated in the«Take Off Your Shoes» area, and I regretted the decision in less than 10 minutes. There’s no back support, so my back was aching by the time we finished dinner. My legs kept going numb from sitting cross-legged. I don’t know how everyone else is doing it. They’re open 24-hours as well, and on Friday night it was packed! Be prepared to line up, but I wouldn’t waste my time.

I am not sure if I want to eat hot pot or grill meat or even noodle any time of the day. But I am happy that Huh Ga Né is open 24 hours! The wait staff here is pleasant and speak good English but I shouldn’t have any problem to read the menu as it is printed in Korean, English and Chinese! Duck with Vegetable in Hot Pot($ 30) Ori Jeon Gol is labelled as spicy but lack the spice even when the lady reassured me that it is spicy. She did go and get extra seasonings to help spice it up for us. The duck though was a little tough, I probably won’t be ordering it again. But It was not bad for a cold day. There are also other traditional Korean comfort food: soup, noodle, bbq, blood sausage, pig’s feet and more. At first glance, the pricing seems to be a little higher than other neighbourhood’s restaurants but the pricing includes HST. I will be back, especially at the strange hours on a cold day… eating Hot Pot and other Korean’s comfort food just make me feel nice and warm. Or I come back to eat some pig’s feet with a cold beer?
