BUKCHON

So glad we found this place! Excellent wholesome food (even the KFC!) authentic but appeals to everyone’s tastes. Friendly service, highly recommended!

Celebrated with family and was my first time here. Service was good and fast. Food was really good and serving was hefty. Will come back again soon

We wanted to try something new. First time having Korean food. It was a very nice experience. The atmosphere was intimate and cosy. Food was good. No complaints.

Well deserved one star
Pros: food is spicier than avg like the kick
Con: like several others have mentioned food is extremely slow waited for an hour for the cold noodle. Grilled pork jowl is cold and super salty. Have to ask for water refill and no apology after complain about the slow food. Waiter showed attitude when I asked when my food will be ready.

How does restaurant like this survive this competitive market….

Very bad services, no actually no service!
Food services very slow. Their sever recommend can beer, chicken tasty too dry.
The pork rice is not like being cooked new and the leaves (salad) are not fresh too. I choose here because it is close, but I won't go again. I don't recommend it.

Most decent reasonably priced Korean restaurant in metro Vancouver I would say. As a Korean who's been cooking and eating Korean food all my life, I am not easily impressed by a Korean restaurant food, usually lack of flavour and using wrong ingredients, or overpriced. However, Bukchon has obtained beyond expectation about Korean restaurant. Some of the dishes are even way better quality than those in Korea, for example, Golbaengi muchim, and Beef Tartare Cold Noodle. I really appreciate Bukchon and its staffs for doing fantastic job bringing real Korean spirit.

Had lunch with my folks there today.
Food was authentic, tasty and not greasy.

Customer service was exceptional. Time was taken to describe each dish and how best combined with side dishes for optimum experience.
Homemade kimchi was so yummy, they gave us extra!
KFC was perfect, crispy pork belly, best seafood scallion pancake and tasty octopus soup!

Give this place a try, worth going and for us, we will definitely go back, our new favourite!

Thank you Bukchon, we were very happy and are looking forward to our leftovers!

Bukchon definitely has thought about the presentation of the dishes. They look so nice when they land on the table! The food tastes delicious and fresh. I like how the seafood was cooked as the squid rings, mussels, shrimp and scallops were so tender and not overcooked! They've got quite a few creative and different Korean dishes than other typical Korean restaurants so we would like to come back and try other dishes next time!

North shore needed a place like this! They are open till midnight and serve Korean Izakaya kind of food and drink. We really enjoyed the foods and our servers were really nice and helpful. Would love to come back and try their Korean burgers!

Order from here every now and then. First time i tried a Salmon Katsu Burger. Absolutely bombs.

Waited 50min for food, and it came out cold. Not even the appetizers came. The kitchen is definitely not equipped to handle busy night. Every table had their food served super late, and they are still doing take out orders. If the kitchen can’t handle the load, then they shouldn’t do take out orders. Servers were apologetic as they know it’s the kitchen’s fault. Won’t go again.

Super loud place, even the music, but the food is amazing and the staff are friendly and efficient.
