When Jason Lee graduated from college and showed up for his first day of work as the general manager of his parents’ eatery, Korean Village Restaurant, he was expecting to get shown to an office. “But my mother gives me a mop and says ‘go clean the washroom,’” he remembers. “That was my first task working here. I was humbled.”

The dedicated work ethic of his mother and father, both co-founders of Korean Village Restaurant, is what has kept the eatery going strong since it first opened in 1978. When the restaurant is busy, Jason’s mother still helps out with clearing and setting tables. “If someone from the kitchen calls in sick, she’ll be the first one to put on an apron, whether it’s to wash dishes, prep or cook,” Jason explains. “The one thing I learned from my mom is leading by example. So if my mother has to do those things, I’ll do those things. No questions asked.”

The portion for 2 people was pathetic. I felt hungry and ripped off after eating at korean village. The meat was old and over marinaded, like it had been sitting around for ages, it was soft and mushy. The panchan portion was so pathetic! About a tablepoon of each between two people!! What a rip off this place was, I will never go there again, to be ripped off so badly!!

We had a difficult time communicating with our waitress because of language issues but it didn't really matter. The food was sensational. The little complimentary dishes are fantastic and all of our food was very fresh and delicious. The servings are huge and the value great.

The kong na mul — or pickled bean sprouts, for the non-natives about the place — set up expectations for some truly fine Korean cuisine to follow. These seasoned soybean sprouts mixed with garlic, hot pepper flakes and green onions are a common Korean side dish, and this Annex joint does them up real nice.

When you want a true array of Korean BBQ with sides and service equally amazing, you come here. The kimchi is zesty and pickled just right, while the hot stone bowl comes with the added bonus of cheese. The best finishing touch? A lollipop after your meal.
