Malado Restaurant

Best pork bone soup hands down.the flavours are excellent.i almost refuse to have pbs anywhere else.

Ok so I used to love this place. I would order in a lot more than I’d visit. But I feel after their prices went up even the food is kinda inconsistent. It’s seems like it’s family run. The service is decent but the quality I feel has gone down in the past year or so. Really used to like the place I hope it gets back to its OG flavor and quality.

I’ve tried this place after looking at other reviews, but everything is just below average. First of all, the server wasn’t sure which menu gets what, which I get it since everybody makes mistakes. If that’s the case, most of the time, the food makes up for it. Unfortunately, the miso soup was just blend, the tempura was just overcooked, the sushi/sashimi were not at all fresh, and I couldn’t have more than one bite of the side dishes. I’m not sure if it was just a one-day thing, but I wouldn’t recommend this place.

I still love this place even though some portions has gradually decreased. I know it’s tough to run a business given the current inflation.

I love the bento boxes here! As well as Japchae and pork bone soup. Service is always great!

Yes yes and yes again! Fresh fast and friendly service! Small and very cozy hidden gem! Green dragon roll was on point

The food was really good! We ordered Gam Ja Tang! The atmosphere is pleasant. There is only one server but she works hard and it’s probably a family owned and run business so this is the type of business we want to support! We didn’t have to wait too long and anytime we needed something, we simply asked and was served! Would recommend and go again!

Such a cute little restaurant, great menu with Japanese & Korean dishes, which is hard to find outside of Toronto. The interior design makes every table feel more intimate and private which I loved! And very culturally designed. We got the volcano roll, malado roll, the salmon lovers meal and their japchae. Parking was easy to find and there was no wait time to be seated, I will definitely be back

Their food is amazing but the only reason i am removing 2 stars is:
1) they don't let you order the tteokbokki without the beef gyoza, as a vegetarian this is a bit frustrating and i'm not sure why i can't order the same dish without the gyoza
2) charging $9 for sides on ubereats when you get them for free at any other korean restaurant is kind of ridiculous, like $5 i would understand but $9?

We've been to Malado Restaurant so many times, I brought my family and friends here because the food so good and authentic Korean. The best Gamjatang I ever tasted and the food felt home made for me. The staff are accommodating and helpful and it makes them smile when you greet them in Korean. They have great menu to try so try it out if you're craving for Korean food.

It’s a hidden but good restaurant.
The food is fresh and the decorations are perfect.
The waiter was friendly and supportive.
The warm atmosphere is for someone who loves to live slowly and enjoy food with no rush.
The price is not cheap but worths money.
Highly recommended!

Not 5 stars because the cost is so high now. You have to pay premium for a simple bibimbap in a stone pot.

I ordered the spicy pork bulgogi and it was good. The spice level was what I expected and thankfully the salad was there with the banchan to even out the heat.

Expect to pay $20 or more when ordering per person if you're getting Korean food. The sushi Bento, even on a daily special day, is gonna be over $20 as well.

Service was decent for a single server and we didn't wait long for 5 meals.

Single person men's washroom was clean and well kept. Nothing fancy.

Parking is abundant, but not in front of the restaurant.

This place is terrible and horrible.

No tea will be served until you place an order.
No side dishes.
Mandatory tips 13% got added to your bill and will even ask you to pay more (be careful!)
The food is terrible and very small size but it is much more expensive than any other Korean Restaurants.

If you have any other choice, do not come to this place please!

Food is always great here, but today it was just extra on point! Had the spicey pork bulgogi, gamjatang, tempura dinner, and malado roll. If you like hidden gems. This is a great place! I gave it four stars and not 5 only because it is a bit older and run down. Still I would go here before any fancy restaurant!

Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff. They left me with full pitcher of water and gave me privacy. Though they did volunteer napkins when they heard me blowing my nose. The pork bone soup was very good - heads up it's very rich! The sides were Kimchi, pickled cucumber, pickled radish, and sweet potatoes. Music was a bit loud from where I was sitting. Cost was a bit higher than I expected but the location is great since I'm in the suburbs and didn't have to make it over to either Koreatown. Parking was good. I am curious to try their sushi sometime too.

Malado is a hidden gem!
Great family owned and friendly staff, Food is always fresh and good quality.
Daily specials are a great deal-
WED is my fave’
Terryaki chicken over rice, glass noddle, 8 spicy salmon roll, salad, miso soup, 6pc shrimp & veg tempura for $15.99.

This is only half of what I got I ate my sushi lol But it was very delicious now I know where to go when I need sushi this place is very recommendable It tasted amazing

Very delicious Japanese/Korean food, the service was excellent and the food came fairly quick, highly recommended.

Terrible experience EVER! All sashimi and sushi were really in bad quality; besides, Im strongly suspicious of their hygiene condition due to the fact that some of sashimi went bad with stink. Definitely, I never recommend here

Generous portions, reasonable prices, tasty food, friendly service, nice environment. Worth a try.

Went there for vapentines day. Very friendly host and staff. Place is very cozy and intimate. Food is awesome. Usually have to go yonge n finch area for this type of food. Finally krn spot close to home and thats actually good.

I don’t understand why people rate high value on this place.
I ordered assorted sashimi, rainbow maki and cold noodle w/ raw fish (a.k. A hwe nang myeon) by UberEats. When I received my order, and unpacked the dishes I was so surprised because all food is bad. Literally BAD. The nang myeon is already gone and even I couldn’t mix the noodle. The sashimi.wow. I couldn’t take this quality of sashimi ever. I clearly saw too much white layers and they didn’t slice the fish well. I ate one piece of octopuses among them, too much salted water from it and couldn’t swallow. All the sashimis are combined together and it looks disgusting to eat. Also, I asked them without white tuna and tilapia, but I got tilapias. They probably don’t know what tilapia is even they’re running a restaurant. Further, the roll I clearly saw the not greeny avocado and the fish quality also bad.
Me and my bf, we couldn’t eat and just throw to a garbage can. I wasted around $70 and got a bad experience.
Overall, Don’t take any food contained raw fish in this place.

Totally recommend 100% amazing service, very cozy place and the food excellent. I will repeat soon.

It was a small place but food is surprisingly great. Place was clean, service was decent, prices are reasonable. Lots to choose from the menu, they offer Thai, Korean, Japanese. Soup base were all flavourful, bento boxes have good portions, appetizers are good too. Would definitely come back and try other dishes. They also have "day special" depending on the day of the week which was neat.

It was very good. Lots of options with something for everyone. More asian fusion than japanese but overall very good. I will be coming back

Came here for dinner and was extremely happy with the large portions, good prices and amazing taste!
