Korea House - Coquitlam

Located in the heart of “Korean Town” in Coquitlam and recommended by my Korean friend, this place is definitely legit. The AAA Short Rib here is one of the best Korean BBQ dishes that I have ever had. The Cold Noodle Soup is just as impressive. Jessica, the owner, really shows her passion for food and tradition at this place. I will definitely need to visit her Cafe Bono in the same complex next time. I’m looking forward to my next visit to Toe Dam, but I would try to come with a bigger group so that I can try everything else on the menu.

Came here on a Saturday around 1pm and was easily seated. Staff were very polite. Clean set up in the booths. Food was tasty and came sizzling (obviously depending on my order).

It’s been a while since I’ve had Korean food which feels odd to say because I used to go for it often. And then ironically enough, I went to Korean and since I’ve been back it has become less of a craving so we haven’t gone. Mother deer wanted to go out for dinner one evening and since she already went for Japanese food for lunch, we decided to go for Korean instead.

The restaurant is located in the “Korea Town” — the North Road area — alongside many other Korean stores and restaurants. We didn’t get the Peking Duck that we expected, but we got to grill more than a duck’s worth of meat! Overall flavours were quite on point. Price wise, certain things are more pricey than others. You just need to know to order the right things here.

You should try their famous duck bbq! Always a great quality! When you order the whole duck bbq, it also comes with the soup you can eat after. Pretty good customer service even though they are crazy busy at night. I wish they had more tables to take lots of customers. Make sure you get there early or late, otherwise you need to wait 30min to an hour.
