I usually don't write reviews, but I really had to write about this place.Side dish? The seasoning is just right and it's really delicious. I don't usually eat things like seasoned seaweed, but the rest of the side dishes were so delicious that I tried them and they were just as delicious, so I ate up the seasoned seaweed as well.The soy sauce crab sauce was just as good as it was said to be. It was full of meat inside and the taste was great. To be honest, I thought it would fill my stomach because it looked small, but it was enough to add a bowl of rice.I definitely recommend coming next time.

Me and my friend went here after seeing it on instagram, We ordered 3 dishes and with tip it was around $80. They were extremely small portioned and not worth it for the price, I could have finished it alone and not feel full. Mediocre taste not the best I’ve ever had. The crab was tiny and not worth $30. We didn’t even get the head of the crab either our order. Don’t believe everything you see on instagram.

Unique and one of a kind restaurant serving delicious raw marinated crab. We tried the spicy and the soy crab and I liked the soy crab because of all the extra crab fat. It is so tasty to have the fat with the rice and soy sauce marinade. We also enjoyed seafood pancake. Banchans are good too. Overall a positive experience. Hopefully will return again soon.

Great marinated blue crabs here, very similar to the ones we've had in Seoul. However be prepared to wait as tables fill up really quickly at dinnertime.

** There's a few places with a similar name so just make sure you're going to the right location. This one is on Steeles, not Yonge. ** Same as many of my fellow Yelpers, I came to try the marinated raw crab - a Korean specialty that I've been craving since stumbling across Korean Market documentaries and watching short recipe reels. They don't take reservation, so if you're more than 4 people, you might wanna try coming for an earlier dinner. Service is really quick though so I did notice tables turning over fairly often. We ordered the marinated raw crabs (both soy and red) and a gamjatang. Wow that raw crab was delicious. I thought I'd enjoy the one marinated in red sauce more, but I actually preferred the soy marinated one. It was all quite a bit salty, but wow that crab meat is so delicious and sweet. It's got a similar texture to raw shrimp if you've ever had that at sushi. At $26+ per crab dish, it was a bit of a treat for us, but given that it's unique to this restaurant, I'd say well worth it. We also ordered the first set meal which came with mackerel, seafood pancake, army stew, and kalbi short ribs. The ribs were good and the army stew was quite a bit spicier than expected. The seafood pancake though was the best! The crispy fried bits had the best flavour, and it comes packed with seafood and onions. I'd definitely order that alone. And it was huge! I think I'd be back for the crab, and a side of that delicious pancake.

Wanted to dine in and try out this restaurant. We were hopeful to get a table because there were still a handful of empty tables but none of the waiters entertained us to go inside and have a seat. There was one waiter who saw us standing there for almost 10 mins and did not say anything or acknowledge us.

We came here specifically for the marinated raw crab (blue crab). The crabs were well seasoned and had the perfect amount of spice. We also had the seafood pancake and a few other dishes to round out our meal. Everything was quickly prepared and nicely presented.On a side note, the cell phone signal was very weak, but there are posters with the WiFi password all over the restaurant.

Came here to try the raw marinated crab - we found it to be a tad on the salty side and the crabs were very small (perhaps it’s not in season?) Anyhow, I would say it’s mid-range Korean restaurant. Nothing truly stood out for me. Ordered the sweet and spicy fried chicken but there was too much batter. The actual chicken pieces were enhanced by the batter to make it appear bigger. Kalbi had very little meat, fatty and bony at the same time. Would have loved better quality meats for the $$ that they are charging.

Came here because of the recommendation from a friend and didn't disappointed at all. I'm not a person into raw seafood but the crabs tasted great. The spicy one is very spicy so it covered the taste of the crab. Hence, I would recommend you to eat the non-spicy one first before trying out the spicy ones. Seafood tofu soup was not bad either. Their bbq beef was also very tasty. Besides, I saw many Korean customers eating at the restaurant so I bet this is an authentic place for them as well.

Came here on a Sunday evening right before 7pm and this place was super busy. There were several people ahead of us and we waited 10 mins for a table of 2.We ordered the raw soy marinated crabs and gamjatang. Crabs were super juicy and just delicious! The gamjatang came with so much meat on the bones, I was really impressed. I really liked the kimchi as I'm a fan of fresh kimchi over aged.Highly recommend and would comeback. Note when we left at 8pm, there were still a lot of people waiting to be seated.
