We discovered this place when we went to the adjacent well known Japanese ramen place Ganbaranba. The Korean dumplings intrigued us, so we came the following day.This is the same location as the Mando on “46 lake st”. Not sure why there are two addresses, because the entrance is really on Spence st. The menu is simple, but with a good enough variety. It doesn’t contain the classic Korean dishes you may be use to (bibimpap, japchae glass noodle stir fry, seafood pancake, etc.) However, it does contain other dishes that are worth trying. There are a few stir fry’s with your choice of starch (udon, rice vermicelli, rice). They tend to put some chopped cabbage with a heavy dose of mayonnaise on...
We ordered a combination of dumplings to try. They were hand made. We also ordered the Bulgogi beef udon noodles. It had interesting sweet flavours. But if you like the flavour of Kim chi. You have to try the cold noodle dish. Served in a stainless steel bowl with thin buckwheat noodles bathed in a cold broth. I think that really hit the spot. Will definitely come back!
I absolutely adore this restaurant! The staff were so nice, the food was amazing, and the portions were very generous. We ordered the galbi and kimchi dumplings, a bulgogi rice bowl, and a bulgogi hot pot for $44, and still had leftovers to bring home. The dishes were sweet with just the right amount of spice. I highly recommend this place!
The fresh, house-made dumplings are delicious and a must-have with your rice bowl or fried chicken. I highly recommend the lunch special for its perfect portion size, tasty options, and unbeatable value. Whether you're there for lunch or dinner, the service is fast and efficient.
