My mom and I shared a wonderful meal here on a Friday night. The food was delicious and service was fantastic! The Pa Jun appetizer specifically was delicious - fried to perfection! I see a lot of reviews on here complaining about the owner and would like to chime in. I do think there's more room for misunderstanding when English is not your native tongue. Would give grace and try to move past that as the food is absolutely wonderful! :)

Please be ready if you only order One soon tofu dish, they are NOT serving you!!!!

We entered the facility and did not see the sign for the waiting room. The server immediately was rude and told us we had to wait in the waiting area. He then skipped over us and sat 2 other people to their table first. As we looked over the menu, and asked to share one dish. He stated no service and cannot place one order to share. This was very rude and we left on our own. I would give this place no stars if I could.

Hi,We were on our way back home to Paris, ON from New York and thought of getting into some Korean restaurant on the way. Based on the good reviews we got into the place and I will not regret it at all.Authentic Korean culture customer service and food was excellent!I will definitely go there again.Thanks.

As you walk into the waiting area, you see an authentic Korean selection of drinks including artisinal alcoholic beverages, if that is your sort of thing.When you get seated, you are met with a tremendous amount of kindness and respect. With a very cozy atmosphere and quietness during your dining experience.The food is carted out, one by one, appetizers, then entrees. I enjoyed the seaweed salad and nabe udon with a Thai bubble tea, among other things. I was humbled by the lovely addition of bean sprouts with a sprinkle of sesame oil, Kimchi, and a few slices of tempura veggies. I must say, the food is well worth every single penny spent. I would highly recommend this place to anybody looking to have a delicious meal, a meal of such quality a person may not expect in this region.Vegetarian options: The picked veggies are tasty. The tempura veggies are definitely quality as well! The seaweed salad is a generous portion in comparison to other restaurants in the area.Parking: Approximately 8 spaces. I've never seen this parking lot particularly full.Kid-friendliness: They are thoughtful and have plates and utensil that specifically accommodate children. When the owner realized that I am trying to teach my daughter to use chopsticks, he even brought out special kid friendly chopsticks!!!

This place has authentic, delicious Korean food. You're not going to get your order quickly, because it's just a couple ruining it in their own, so don't come starving as it's well worth the wait. Tons of delicious freebies like kimchi. We will definitely be returning for the dumpling soup alone. This is a hole in the wall that's well worth your time!

If you like oriental food and authentic drinks, Man Nam is an excellent place. My wife and I decided to eat there at least twice a month. I've eaten in two Korean restaurants in Singapore and can testify that Man Nam's food is as good as in the these acclaimed places. You may want to taste Korean sake Soju and Korean wines of different flavor. Unfortunately, the owner's English is far from perfect and you have to exercise some patience when communicate with him. The inside of the place is very modest, but very clean. In summary - if you want to hear great English, go to a theatre. If you want to be in a great looking place, go to a museum. If you want great Korean food, go to Man Nam

The boss has his way of hospitality, and if you're willing to embrace it, this is the good place to taste authentic Korean

The waiter was extremely rude and made offensive comments to one person out of our group of 6 over them ordering only an appetizer after everyone ordered their own entree as well as appetizers and drinks. 5 minutes later the waiter comes back and tells the same person that they are not making the appetizer for them and they cannot order anything else. Following this, the waiter brought out soup for everyone except the same person. This person was targeted with disrespectful comments, attitude, and given no food while made extremely uncomfortable for the rest of the dinner simply for ordering an appetizer and not saying a word after. Simple respectful communication could've easily avoided this celebration dinner turning to an uncomfortable night out.

I’ve driven by this restaurant for years and always wanted to try it, and finally went for it! We got a seafood scallion pancake that was delicious, udon soup which had incredibly rich and flavorful broth, and kimchi stew that was the perfect spice level. Their kimchi is one of the best we’ve had. Highly recommend for something different in the area!

The owner was so nice and welcoming ?. The bulgoki bimibap is so good and the homemade kimchi is the best I’ve ever had.

Unlike most of the reviews, the owner was really friendly and sweet, but I also went when it was empty. The food was 10/10 and the portions are

Great place to go if you are ok with the owner’s attitude. Food are good- love the bibimbap, the galbi, and all the free little dishes. However each time I went there, the owner is yelling at someone for a different reason. Such a shame.

Stop!! Do not go with a family of 5+. My husband and I walked in with our kids- totaling 6 and we were told they would not serve a party this size. There was one other table occupied with a party of 2 at the time as it was 2:40pm. He said he would accommodate a family of 5 but not 6. We asked to split the tables with an adult at each and he said no, we can not do that. I’ve never met a business that hasn’t advertised what they can’t accommodate. Maybe put a header on your website and front door. Needless to say, they lost my current and future business.
