Comma - modern Korean restaurant & bar

Very good Korean restaurant. The service was great and their plating was beautiful. I really recommend their seafood udon, their sauce is very creamy with a strong truffle flavor. Their seafood pancake was also delicious, crispy with lots of seafood. Their pork appetizer is for people who love garlic, the sauce is sweet and salty. Overall, a great place for dinner!

I’ve passed by this spot so many times and finally decided to come here for a weeknight dinner. We got here over an hour early for our reservation but the staff kindly accommodated us. The portions are generous and the food is delicious. I really liked the udon and the seafood pancake.

Came here for Summerlicious 2024. The price for the set menu was good, however the main dishes were okay, I think we were expecting more with the reviews but I think we just needed to order something different. The appetizers and desserts were good. Also loved that there were 2 drinks included in the meal. Service was great, they checked in with us several times.

Love the environment, playing all the top songs at the moment which gave it a really good vibe. The food was really good and shareable as there was a group was 5 of us. The spicy crab was really good, although I do enjoy it with rice and seaweed better but the sauce was still good. The best dish was the fried bossam and udon woww!! The prices were more on the expensive side but since it felt like a fancier Korean restaurant it’s ok.

I was looking forward to trying this place out from hearing about it from friends and seeing their stuff online. In my experience, the restaurant is not very organized and service wasn’t great. Made a dinner reservation here and when we checked in, we were told that they were going to put us at this small bar counter facing the street. We pushed back on that because we made a standard dinner reservation and we weren’t told ahead of time or selected bar seating. We were seated instead at this table at the very back of the restaurant beside the staircase to the washroom. The ceiling lights in this area of the restaurant looked like they haven’t been replaced and it was pretty dark. We ordered their premium makgeolli, and the server didn’t know what it was. I had to point it out to him on the menu. After that, we waited a while for anyone to come back to our table and check on us. There was a group of guests that just sat down beside our table and somehow they were able to get their orders taken and food served before anyone even checked back with us to take our order. The food itself is fine, but nothing really special out of what I had if I compared it to other similar restaurants I’ve been to elsewhere in the city. There’s really no reason for me to return here, and I can’t recommend this place based on the experience I had.

Can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the menu! We tried the truffle funghi udon, yuzu tomatoes, mini fried bossam (which was a huge portion) and the Tteok-bokki. We loved it all and these were the servers recommendations and he did not let us down! The cocktails were really well made, beer was cold and really fresh tasting, service, music and vibe were all great too. Great spot, I love they’re open late for food too

Me and my friends stumbled upon this place when we were searching for bars that was still opening past midnight. This restaurant/ bar turned out to be an absolute gem with an extensive menu for selections and very chill ambience. We ordered the marinated crabs and the dish came out being one of the most delicious I’ve tried so far in Toronto. The Seafood Creamy Udon is another must-try dish that I recommend. Each dish brings unique and tasty flavour. Not only the food, the service was amazing, the staffs are very friendly and attentive. Overall, a very good experience dining here.

🌟 Tao's Google Restaurant Reviews 🌟 Really cool Korean inspired eats and drinks here. I had seen their advertisements on Instagram and Tik Tok and knew I had to come. They were very accommodating with reservations and you're free to message them on IG as well. We ended up seating 6 and getting the: Garlic butter fries - really delicious, highly recommend this as a shareable. Spicy pork kimbap - was nice and moist, pretty decent. Spicy raw crab - really depends on your taste profile. It's actually not too spicy and was tasty, though I thought it was a bit pricey for the amount you're getting. Beef tartare - also one of their highlights of the menu, I thought the taste was quite mild and mainly you were experiencing the texture with it. The kimbap served with it was nicely made though. Truffle udon - I highly recommend this one! Super creamy and carbonara-like, one of our favourite dishes. Traditional tteokboki - pretty decent, can help supplement your calories. LA Kalbi - one of our favourites too, very juicy and served still warm on a hot plate. Strawberry makgeolli - they came out with cups with strawberries and boba for you to pour in! Overall, I really enjoyed our experience here. I would get the ones that I highly recommended again. Service was very nice too. I can tell the detail put into the restaurant, nice high quality plates etc. I'd say the one thing, and probably not as controllable during the summer, was that there were a few bugs/flies that got in our experience despite sitting inside. 🍲Food: 4.5/5 🧑‍🍳Service: 5/5 🍴Atmosphere: 4.5/5 FINAL SCORE 4.5

Interesting spot but left very dissapointed. We were sat down and then forgotten about for atleast 20 mins and the service continuted to be a major distraction for the entire evening. Checking on drinks, flagging down servers not our own, etc... Orederd 3 main dishes for 2 people to share and portion sizes were solid. Jiamppong- Broth had some good heat to it and the noodles were excellent very al dente but overall i thought there could be more depth of falvour achieved in the broth and it was lacking in the seafood department Fried Bissam with yuzu salad- Pork beelly its self was yummy friend very well but tyhere was almost no salad and virtually no yuzo detecable in the dish and it needed a sauce. The spicy thai style dipping sauce on the side lacked head and flavour Bulgogi pancake with Burrata- This was a bit of a head scratched for both of us. When it arrived at the table we actually had to ask for clarification to make sure we had the right dish as there was no pancake. The dish was tasty but this is a completely Italian dish with barrata and the whole dish covered in a hard cheese

When the heat wave hits, and you're on Queen West, and nothing catches your eye until you see a sign for a Korean restaurant...well, I think spicy food is a good way to fight the heat, so I headed on in. I was the first one there, so service was quick. Who I am assuming was one of the owners sat me down quickly. He was really friendly! Menu is QR code, which I am not a huge fan of, but what are you gonna do in 2024? I ordered a klmchi blblmbap appetizer and a three way pancake as the main. The appetizer was so good. Spicy, a bit sweet, some saltiness from the nori shreds, and a bit of perfectly cooked rice. (They apparently make their own kimchi, and it is very nice.) The three ways of the pancake are kimchi (50%), potato (25%), AMD seafood (25%). The kimchi was nice and mildly spicy, the potato served as a palate refresher, but the seafood was the star of the show. Creamy texture, whole shrimps and pieces of squid, the soft onions really coming out...yum! It also came with shreds of pickled peppers and a soy chili sauce for wrapping and/or dipping. The decor...if you showed me a photo and said "Hey buddy, guess what kind of cuisine?", I would have said "French?" They say they are going for a modern Korean vibe, and there they succeed . The vibe is also geared to a younger crowd, based on the background music and the average age of the patrons who came in while I was eating. Didn't bother me, but some older people might feel differently. Finally, I get the comments about menu prices and portion sizes, but this place is aiming at elevated dining, and I don't know how much cheaper other finer dining establishments in the area are. All in all, a place I would visit again for a special occasion. It feels like a newer open, so I'm curious what the experience would be like in six months.

Had a fabulous Summerlicious dinner at Comma for $45 per person. We were first served an iced Korean red vinegar beverage before our meal. We then had (in reverse) coffee chocolate mousse and strawberry shortcake, miso salmon with cold noodles, kalbi with chestnut rice, kimchi and japchae banchans, potato pancakes and sliced beef with the most delicious burrito cheese. Service was also great, we will definitely return to try their regular menu soon!

Comma was a lovely Korean spot to catch up with friends. I liked the ambience, and the restaurant was constantly busy on a Wednesday evening. We ordered the spicy marinated crab, seafood pancake, cheese tteokbokki, and fries. I think almost every table had gloves on, so the crab was a clear favourite. I personally really liked the pancake as well. Prices were a little elevated, but not surprising for a trendy, downtown spot. Service was pretty slow, much slower than a normal restaurant. Otherwise, we had a pleasant experience.

New Korean restaurant/bar with a modern interior, it's a nice spot to take photos, the dinnerware was aesthetic too. QR code menu only. We got the grilled pork collar which included spicy salad and gochujang garlic sauce. The portion was very small for the price (32.99 before tax and tip). There were also a lot of pieces of fat, which are inedible. Overall the entire dish was very strong flavours, would be nice if it came with rice, but it didn't. Service was just ok, server was polite. Washrooms downstairs, inaccessible. Probably would not come again due to how expensive it is.

Overpriced and poor service (selectively) First, the food wasn't impressive. The crab was fine but too pricey when compared to uptown Korean restaurants. The beef tartar wasn't the flavour I liked. Too sweet that it overpowered the freshness of the meat. The cheese taboki was mediocre, the rice cakes were kind of separated from the sauce and the cheese. The server wasn't nice too, she told me to go to a table and pointed at one but I then found out it wasn't cleaned yet, I told her and she said I was SUPPOSED to go to the table at the back. Ok but another customer already put her bag on one of the chairs... And btw I did make a reservation. When I was about to order, she stopped me and suddenly found somebody else. (They were having a big group afterwards and wanted us to leave earlier but another server just told us it doesn't matter)... It is very impolite to stop a customer when they are ordering and leave without saying anything. I feel mistreated at the first place when I was standing like nobody at the front door without anyone directing me to a table. (They were good to the big group of customers though Just because the restaurant has good deco doesn't make it a good one

Came for dinner for the first time and we enjoyed our visit! The interior of the restaurant is designed very nicely - I really like the vibes and they had a fun cocktail menu. For food, we started with the Chicken Karaage, then got the Grilled Pork Belly + Beef Joladang as mains. We were happy with our choices. I liked the sauce they put on the Karaage - a little tangy with a kick. Service was good, everything came out quickly and I think the 2 of us were in and out within 45 minutes of our reservation.

Comma is a fairly new Korean spot serving old favourites with a modern twist. The food menu is extremely creative, with the rosé rice cake dish being an interesting hit, and they had plenty of great classics such as kalbi ribs, marinated crab, and spicy fried chicken. All of the dishes were great, though the prices are definitely on the higher side considering the small portions. I really liked the vibe of the place, but the service struggled - particularly with clearing our table and making sure our order was correct and coursed properly. Overall it was a great place to try at least once.

Our meal at Comma was very good. We primarily came to try the spicy raw marinated crab, but we also ordered the tofu stew which was very flavorful and the black bean noodles, which we also enjoyed. Our favorite was the spicy Kalbijjim with pork short ribs. For the cocktails we tried the Donkey Kick (excellent) and the strawberry saffron Negroni (just OK). Service was attentive and the ambiance was elegant (fine-casual dining). Overall, a memorable meal and we would return to try some of these dishes.

Overall a cool bar with Korean fusoon eats and cocktails. Went there 3 tines to enjoy some food like the beef tartare and pork neck which were good. Most recent time was seafood pancake and seafood udon. The pancake was good with lots of shrimp while the udon lacked some taste and seafood. They have an all day $5 beer special.

All the foods and drinks are really amazing. The service was great. Ambiance was very cozy And romantic. I really recommend this place. There are lots of vegan menu as well.
