My last review for Hankang was a few years ago and I haven't seen the owner...not sure if ownership has changed but if it has it's still just as amazing. The lunch special is my all time favorite in the city! Such a good deal and you get a huge portion. I always order the short ribs! Their honey glazed potatoes are to die for.
The boys and I were craving some good, affordable Korean food for lunch. Our friendly server quickly took our orders (my son and I ordered the BBQ beef ribs(LA kalbi) lunch special for $12.40; hubby had the pork bulgogi) and promptly brought our miso soups to the table. This was followed by a huge plate of kalbi, rice, vegetarian spring rolls, romaine lettuce, pickled daikon and carrots, and garlic (glass) potatoes. The BBQ sauce on the kalbi was a bit too sweet for my liking, but at least the ribs weren't drowning in the sauce they were tender and grilled perfectly. Hubby and I didn't care for the sweet yogurt drink served at the end of the meal, so our son inhaled all three yogurt drinks in a few gulps. We will certainly return to try the other items on the menu (hot pots, seafood pancake, glass noodles, rice cakes).
Very good family owned Korean restaurant, dinning room is average size, a little older decor but clean. Good service, friendly staff. Good place for lunch too. Ambient 3 Foods 5 Service 5 Price 5 good price
Loved the service--they were super attentive to our needs and assisted in helping us get started on our orders. The servers were polite and friendly.The restaurant was kind of on the smaller side but we went in the early evening to not be a ruckus with our large party of 8. We ended up ordering the party meals to try a bit of everything. We were pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the various meats, soups, and small dishes. They also provided complementary small yogurt desserts. The owner, knowing that it was my birthday, actually went out of her way and gifted us a package of small yogurts! A+
This is a wonderful family run Korean restaurant. We had to travel from Lake Louise to Calgary for a medical emergency. When everything turned out ok, we sought out a lunch treat, and boy were we happy we found this place. Terrific food and reasonable prices. The restaurant is run by a lovely couple who went out of their way to make us feel at home. We returned on our way to the airport about a week later and were greeted like part of the family. On our first visit we had the lunch specials. The price was incredibly reasonable, the portions gigantic. I had short ribs (yum and my wife had pork bulgogi. Each plate came with tofu miso soup, two spring rolls, crispy potatoes in a sweet sauce, rice, and bapsang (sweet and sour daikon radish salad practically overflowing the large plates. We are major foodies with a taste for Asian cuisine and we agreed that the spring rolls were the best we'd ever had. Everything is homemade and simply delicious. At the end of the meal we were served a unique and delicious probiotic Korean yogurt, a perfect ending to a scrumptious meal. When we returned, it was dinnertime so we ordered a la carte, dol sot bi bim bap and beef bulgogi. (If you haven't had dol sot bi bim bap, it differs from the ordinary variety in that it's served in a hot stone bowl, which crisps the rice again and again. Once again everything was delicious. We just had to get an order of those fantastic spring rolls again (5 to an order! To our surprise and delight, dinner came with misomsoup again, delicious kimchi, bapsang, those wonderful potatoes, and a tempura style sliced zuchini that was out of this world, topped off with another Korean yogurt as a finishing touch. These folks know how to cook and they know how to make you feel at home. A warm hug at the end of the meal was welcome and seemed totally natural. We loved this place. Having come for the amazing scenery of the Canadian Rockies, we were so happy to find such great food in a little neighborhood mall. When we return, we'll be stopping in again for sure. You won't regret seeking Hangkang restaurant out!
