Cho Sun Ok - Réservation de table

As a big fan of Korean food, I had no issue whatsoever driving out to Thornhill AKA Koreatown North , where some of the best cuisine in the Toronto area apparently resides. Open since 2005, blogTO named Cho Sun Ok as the #1 Best Korean Restaurant and I was willing to do whatever it took to give them a try.<br/ <br/ We rolled up early on a Saturday evening, hoping to avoid a busy restaurant... We were too late. The place was already lined up out the door! However, I took this as a good sign. They have a pretty effective system where once you enter the restaurant, you approach the counter, tell them how many people are in your group, and you are given a number. Then you simply wait for your nu...

We arrived just after 1pm and proceeded to obtain a ticket. Ten minutes later, we were shoved into a snug, little spot along the perimeter of the restaurant. One side of the table adopted a booth layout, which, in spite of sounding as relaxed as R&D, was completely cramped in actuality.<br/ <br/ ...<br/ <br/ Cho Sun Ok's 물냉면 tasted just as I remembered: tangy, refreshing broth paired with chewy (sweet potato) noodles. The bowl was devoid of meat, so it was crucial to derive some sort of depth from its other components.<br/ <br/ ​The steamed mandu was, unfortunately, sourced from a freezer. Albeit satisfying in terms of a veggie-carb balance, the filling was stiff and the edges of the wrap...

I am very picky about my Korean food and this is my favourite Korean restaurant in the city. I find them to be quite consistent. Be sure to try their cold noodle soup (Mool Naengmyun). Their kimchi braised pork tenderloin dish is also really surprisingly good (Kimchi Jjim). The pork bone soup isn't their strong suit though.  Their kalbi is good, but not the best in the city. Still, overall considering all of the dishes I've tried, I think they're still the best. At the more expensive Korean restaurants, where the kalbi has been amazing, the other dishes were poorly done, so I always go back to Cho Sun Ok. Before you go, be sure to check out their photographic menu (with descriptions) on thei...

I recently discovered the perfect dish for summer at Cho Sun Ok, a popular Korean restaurant specializing in Naengmyun, or Korean cold noodles. Located at the southeast corner of Yonge and Clark, parking in the plaza can be difficult due to the restaurant's popularity. It's recommended for one person to grab a number while the other looks for parking, as the restaurant is often busy. We arrived for a late lunch on a Saturday just after 1:00 and ended up waiting over 40 minutes. Upon entering, head to the back where the cash register is located to receive a number from the server.

The arrowroot noodles were thin and topped with a little bit of kimchi — which provided a little spice to the noodles which were otherwise plain in a good way. (They also brought three side dishes to our table — kimchi, an apple and potato salad, and pickled radish. I was extremely pleased with how the arrowroot noodles were so soft yet firm. The ice slush near the sides of the bowl kept the noodles cold. A sip of the soup made me notice how refreshing the broth was too! There were also cucumbers, radish, and a half boiled egg in the rest of the bowl.

AMAZING Korean food. Well worth the wait. The place closes at 10 pm, we got there are 9:20 and there was still a line-up. And rightly so, the food comes quickly, and it's top-notch quality. Had the dolsot bibimbap and the kalbi. They supply you with scissors so you can cut the beef, which is quite handy. The bibimbap was perfect and I seriously can't get enough of the sauce. Highly recommended.

During the summer months, the dish that always comes to mind for me is mul naengmyeon, a Korean cold noodle specialty. It is a popular choice among Koreans looking to beat the heat, with many either going out to restaurants for it or preparing it at home.

This place is known for their Korean cold noodles and it definitely did not disappoint. Probably wasn't the wisest choice to try this place out on a colder day, but it would be amazing on a hot summer day. Affordability is also a bonus!

Favourite cold noodle spot! I've had Korean cold noodle at many other places and nothing compares. Their noodles and slush are perfection. Be prepared for long waits.
