Hanjan South

Food is amazing, and the service as well! We LOVE Hanjan, this is my family's to-go restaurant! Atmosfere is cozy and welcoming, and quality of the food is always👌. I only wish Hanjan would get more items on the menue with chicken (or even turkey!).

I ordered a dish that I order at the downtown location. “Cheese Buldak. “The menu States” stir-fry chicken”. The dish came with cartilage, skin and fat bits. I think we found three small bits of chicken . I have Korean friends & my kids cook terrific Korean food. This one was quite frankly disgusting. The server even said that it didn’t look right and he wouldn’t eat it, but when he went to the kitchen, apparently the cook said this is how it is served. A quick AI search indicated it absolutely is not served this way. I’ve enjoyed this dish a few times before at the downtown location and it’s never been like this. It’s been a few days, I was told the owner would call me, but I have not heard anything yet. The Overall flavour of the dish was great, however for $24, I would expect chicken and not cartilage and fat and skin .The eggplant Dish was terrific and the soup was also on point.

My wife and I dined in at Hanjan South on 99 Street on November 23. We completely enjoyed the food. I am a regular customer and many of my friends also eat here often. Hanjan has always been one of our comfort food spots for Korean dishes. However, when we received our bill that day, it felt a little overpriced compared to the four items we ordered. We were out the entire day so we ignored it at the moment, but I asked for the receipt just in case. Fast forward to Sunday, November 30. We came back to Hanjan because we wanted to get refunded. Earlier that day, I found the receipt in my wallet and finally checked it. That was when we noticed that we had been charged twice for the items we ordered on November 23. When we arrived, the manager tried to process the refund but the system did not allow it. She offered to refund the amount in cash but changed her mind after. She then told me they would e transfer the money to me, but I would need to wait for their email and it would take a few business days before I receive it. I mentioned that my mom also wanted something from Hanjan. The manager said she would take care of the food I was ordering, which was corn cheese and bulgogi fries, and that she would give me a gift card instead. I agreed since we love Hanjan. After our agreement, I told her I would wait in the car with my wife and return to pick up the food. They took my number and said they would text me when it was ready. They said it would take ten minutes. After thirty minutes with no text, I went back inside. The restaurant was not busy. When the manager saw me, she simply handed me the food and the gift card. That was when I realized that the food was actually charged to the gift card, which went against what I understood from our agreement. I left feeling frustrated. First, we were overcharged. Second, we returned for a refund but they could not process it. Third, nothing was done to make the situation feel better from a customer service standpoint. Despite this, we still plan to come back because we truly enjoy the food. I hope the customer service can be improved because Hanjan has always been our go to Korean comfort food spot.

I had such a great experience at Hanjan South! The atmosphere is vibrant and cozy, perfect for both casual outings and special occasions. The food was absolutely delicious—everything from the Korean fried chicken to the hot stone bibimbap was packed with flavor and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. I especially loved the little details like the side dishes and the overall presentation. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Edmonton for Korean food. Highly recommend!

My friends and I come here pretty often, and we always have a great time. The atmosphere is fun and lively, and I really love the overall vibe. It is such a great place to hang out. The staff are always super nice and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. The food is consistently delicious and definitely makes it worth coming back. Though if I had one small critique, it would be the seating. It is not the most comfortable for longer stays, but honestly everything else more than makes up for it.

Had a great expérience, I love the food at reasonable price too. I always come with my family in weekend dinner and we are all satisfied.

Oh my God. Amazing food, fresh and delicious. The staff was attentive, very friendly and accommodating. We had an amazing time. Sam, the manager/owner and your staff (Michael and James), you guys are providing amazing service. Will be back ten thousand times.

Hanjan has always been a staple for us. The food is something we can count on being consistently good. We've especially loved the Bulgogi Fries, but lately it feels like they’ve been cutting back. Each time we order it, there seems to be less beef, fewer toppings, and not nearly as much sauce. As for service, I don’t usually expect much since it’s button-style. They only come when you call, which I actually prefer. But on my last visit, I paid with cash and the server just took the money and walked away without saying a word. No thank you, no have a nice day, no acknowledgment at all. I still enjoy the food and will likely be back, but I hope they address the basic courtesy in service.

Happened to stumble upon this amazing authentic Korean restaurant in Edmonton! Apparently there's lots of ramen spots everywhere around the city It's a thing here ahaha so the craving was there ! The resto is in the middle of a strip mall they were closing early so we had no choice to order take out as I had to try it out! It had over 1000 reviews on the big G ... had to give it a try and I wasn't staying very far. I had their cheese buldak wooow 5********/5 Best dish I had ! The cheese and chicken mixture with rice cakes was out of this world ! A must try when you come here! The grilled pork belly 5/5!!! You can taste the grill and the tender pieces of pork I love the marinade just delicious! Beef Short ribs: 2/5 a little chewy lacked some flavour but still ok.. will skip next time . Pork Bone soup: 5++++/5 amazingggg delicious and filled with so much flavour absolutely loved it. Teriyaki Chicken with Udon noodles 5+++/ 5 amazing flavour delicious!! Service : 5/5 the guy taking our order took all his time to explain the different menu items and all the popular ones.. we mostly followed his recommendations!very patient and caring while take our order. Top Notch service ! Ambiance: very busy lots of people so you know this is THE SPOT! Overall, don't pass up and definitely try this place out a definite must !! Can't wait to come back here if I ever come back to Edmonton. Overall

In Edmonton for a tournament and wanted some good Korean comfort food. This is definitely the place. Amazing menu. Something for everyone! Pork bone soups, beef beef beef, noodles, rice ....desserts! We came with a pretty large group, and they were able to accommodate us very well. The service was excellent! The most popular dish for the kids was the deep fried pork on rice, for the adults kalbi tang! The one great thing was that they didn't skimp out with rice. Almost every dish came with a bowl of rice! Debating to come back on the same trip, that's how good it was!

Have been here multiple times, have tried a variety of different dishes. Go to Korean spot, I love the energy and decor of the establishment, and the servers are always so lovely!

Legacy post from 2019 I've been to the south location Hanjan several times since 2017. I'd give it an overall 8.3/10 for its vibrant atmosphere and quality food items such as galbi tang.

Formidable foods and lovely service. Dining room is pleasant as well. Hit the spot. Recommend.

I've been here a handful of times, food is classic Korean and consistently delicious with great presentation. So much selection too! I also love the Banchans here. I took a friend here for their first time and she quite enjoyed the atmosphere... it's quite unassuming from the outside at a strip mall, but inside, it's like walking into an an evening street food gathering area. Sitting at a window booth during the day also makes beautiful instagram food photos! The service was friendly and quick, it was very helpful that our server explained everything to my first timer friend- how to get service (press button at table), what the banchans were, etc. There's still so many dishes I want to try, so I will be back!

I booked in advance for a Christmas dinner and Karaoke for 11 of us. We had a table upstairs and it was nice as the other tables weren't close and it wasn't too noisy. They also had a small table at the end which was nice to place our gifts and purses. After ordering our food, it didn't take long to arrive at the table. The food was fresh and hot and the servers were great to bring us hot and cold water jugs and lemon. My Udon noodles were flavourful and had ample beef. There are 2 karaoke rooms beside each other upstairs. Before our scheduled time, we were able to move our items into the room. It could fit 10 and was a little cramped for us all. The ambience made me feel like we were in my parent's basement. There's one couch seating and then the chairs they use in the dining area. The room got quite warm so I would recommend singing with the lights off and opening the door when you're not singing. We spent 2.5 hours doing karaoke and in the last half an hour, there were no occupied tables upstairs. When it was time to pay the bill, they split the karaoke cost and we paid separately from the food. The cost of the room was $30/hour and reasonable split amongst us. We had a fun time and enjoyed our visit to Hanjan!

If you walk away feeling hungry.....you ordered the wrong dishes OR you are at the wrong restaurant. It has a very energetic vibe; patrons of all age ranges. Definitely Dave room for dessert or start with it first.

This was the first time going back there after pandemic! The food was as good as the last time! The staff is very friendly, kind and helpful. Everything seems to be very efficient and the food is really good! I'm glad I went back there again and I definitely recommend this business! :)

Hanjan has beautiful decor including string lights and brick walls. It has a very spacious interior and private rooms as well. They even have a second floor as well. You can often find this restaurant packed on a busy night. Like most Korean restaurants, they have a buzzer you can push for when you need assistance. The staff is quite friendly though they may not come to your table immediately if its a busy night. Overall. I really enjoy all of their dishes. The spicy pork bone soup and bossam is among my favourite items. You can even get unlimted banchan, which are there Korean side dishes, my favourites are the marinated daikon and the Korean style potato salad. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Very good bulgogi Could have bigger portions but the taste is great Building is a little wierd but adds to the overall I guess specialty food atmosphere as the food here is majorly special

Hanjan is one of my first Korean food experiences. Their Honey Butter Bread (dessert), is incredible & a fan favourite for a reason. Their bulgogi fries a great sharing appetizer. We chose Korean Army Stew this time, & the Kinmchi pancake which were also good sharing items. Overall, our service was prompt, the restaurant was clean & good times were had!

I was visiting Edmonton and looking for restaurants in the area and came across Hanjan. I had heard from friends this spot was good so I popped in for a late afternoon lunch. Service was really great here, the servers were super nice and kind, made some recommendations, and during my meal checked in to make sure I was enjoying everything. I ordered the Soon Tofu, and it was very flavourful. It was such a big portion I didn't think I could finish it! The side dishes were also great. Since I was solo, I couldn't try other dishes but friends recommended their fried chicken as well. I would totally recommend checking this spot if you are craving for Korean food in Edmonton!

I've been wanting to try this place out for nearly 3 years and I am glad that I finally got to! I really liked the ambience and set up. The food was incredible! We ordered several different dishes to share off the menu and loved pretty much all of them. It was packed full of flavour. Each dish is shareable amongst 2-4 people. We were a larger group (7) and ended up having to order seconds of almost everything we initially ordered as we realized that the dishes were small if they were to be split between all of us. Desserts are HUGE and can easily be split amongst a few people. The dishes are kind of pricey for what you get and the drinks are equally as expensive. The staff is pretty friendly and helpful. The service on the other hand is pretty slow and unless you hit the call bell on your table, you won't really get checked on. I took away 1 star because some of our cups were dirty and there was dried noodles all over one of the seats at our table.

What I love about this restaurant is the laidback vibe and atmosphere. They accommodated our large group of 15. The menu has so many great options and I look for add to trying more again soon. Meals came out quickly and service was attentive but gave space at the same time. Everyone enjoyed their meals and it seems like this place is steadily busy for a reason.

I ordered takeout from here recently and was quite satisfied with the food. I was craving a Korean stew and the Budae Jjigae (Army Stew) definitely fulfilled that craving. I like how they separated the Ramen from the stew so it wouldn't get soggy. I love spicy stews and this one definitely did not lack flavour. I also ordered their popular Honey Butter Bread and was not disappointed. It came in it's own box and the cinnamon cream came in a separate container so the bread wouldn't get soggy. It tasted the same as if I had dinned in. If you haven't tried this dessert yet, then you're missing out. The crispy honey bread with cold cinnamon cream combination is sooo good. They recently launched their own in house delivery service. You can access it directly from their website and all the funds can go directly to them. Consider using this rather than ordering through skip the dishes or ubereats. I've been to this restaurant a couple of times pre-pandemic and it has a great atmosphere. It's popular among the younger crowd and the inside is quite aesthetic. Some of the food is more on the pricier side.

We keep going back to the downtown Hanjan. I especially love the bimbobop rice and my friend loves everything spicy on the menu. The menu might be foreign to some guests but the staff are willing to help make great suggestions. The room is huge and it rarely seems busy during lunch. Great place to have a party. This you can't miss: cheesy corn and the cinnamon dessert bread

Refreshing watermelon dessert. Perfect for summer! Attentive service from happy staff.

Absolutely amazing korean tofu salad. Good for both dine in and deliverable. Great place for a date.

What a difference time makes. My original review was when they first opened and I really didn't enjoy my experience, and now, dare I say, it's one of my favourite Korean places in town? The best value is the lunch combo for 2. For $35 or $40 you get a hearty spread of a bunch of different items and it's delicious. Only available until 3pm. Which sucks if you're working during the week on the other side of town, but is an option on weekends. Other favourites include the army stew, the bulgogi fries and obviously the honey bread. Obviously. Service is still a little spotty even with the bell you ring from your table, otherwise I'd have given it 5 stars.

Had ordered pickup from their website - no additional fees! I got my usual order - padak, fries and japchae. Consistent flavor and servings. I really love padak. So full of flavor, inside and out. The cook on the chicken is perfect - crispy skin and tendy, juicy meat which my mom really love because some fried chicken we had from other places are not thoroughly cooked. I ordered a new item today - bulgogi udon. It is ok, i prefer japchae. I noticed i got side dishes this time. Before, i only got the spring onion. No mashed potato, beansprout, kimchi and the other pickled veg. I hope this is consistent on all orders. I have been ordering the same thing so i dont know why i have not gotten the same thing before. Will be trying the soup next time.

Hanjan has great food and a good selection of Korean favourites. I really enjoy this restaurant for the food and service.

I went to Hanjan for a friends birthday. I've been here many times and it never disappoints! Hanjan has a very cozy vibe. They hang these globe string lights on the ceiling of the restaurant. Gives the restaurant an almost romantic feel! Great for dates or grabbing some drinks and socializing with family/friends! Due to COVID the restaurant has implemented some changes to their service. All orders are ordered via text and everything has to be ordered at one time and paid on one bill! I ordered bulgogi fries, kimchi fried rice, japchae, beef bulgogi, budae jjigae and watermelon bing su! The bulgogi fries are a must try! It has red onion, green onion, beef and some sort of sweet sauce on the top. It is sooooo good! I'm not sure what they fry their fries in but it's super crispy! One of my favourite items on their menu! All my friends loved it too. The kimchi and stew are spicy. Both seasoned with some sort of kimchi flavouring I believe. Lots of meat in the stew!! Ramen noodles are chewy and not overcooked. Everything on the menu is very flavourful and delicious! I loved everything we ordered!

We got there about ten minutes to 2pm for a late lunch and she was kind enough to give us the happy hour prices. The server was very friendly and attentive whenever we rang the bell which was embedded in the table booth. It signals the waitress to come to your table and booth for service which was super convenient. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. I would definitely order the bulgogi tacos and Jap Chae again as it was very flavourful. I prefer fried rice Kim chi to have a little bit more flavour and less spice so I probably wouldn't order it again just out of personal preference. My friend enjoyed it though and the spicy level was good for her. The booth provided us a comfortable chatting atmosphere but I could see this place also being a great date night hub. I will definitely be heading back for more samplings of their happy hour!!!

Food is mediocre, service was minimal. Nothing stands out spectacularly. Good for late night eat when nothing else is still opened but that's about it.

Good food, good service, good experience! Although portions are not as big compared to other Korean Restaurants, food is really good!

Hanjan is such a wonderful, trendy, and cozy restaurant! My experience here was nothing but good and yum -- the food and desserts were amazing! This is the perfect restaurant to bring friends to. Their desserts are worth the visit alone! I enjoyed the modern outdoorsy decor and mood. It serves for some great photos! Hanjan has great cohesive decor with a very trend-forward appeal. Everything was relatively spotless and clean. I found that the customized chalk art on the back panel was a nice addition. The lighting was also quite good and created a very cozy and relaxed mood throughout the restaurant. In particular, the balcony area is interesting and such a good idea -- I would recommend trying it. Overall, the atmosphere was magnificent and I appreciate the attention to detail. My friends and I loved it here. The food was absolutely delicious! I found that the food was great in terms of Korean cuisine. In particular, I enjoyed the Dak Galbi. It was savoury and tasted great with some interesting acidity and heat. The Korean Fried Chicken is also another good option. It was crispy and juicy inside! Their desserts were amazing and definitely something that you must try; in particular, the Honey Toast and Mango Bingsu were SO good. In terms of presentation, Hanjan always delivers with precise attention to detail and arrangement. The price to portion ratio is not the best but the meals definitely satisfy your cravings. Their service was very friendly! The employees are very welcoming and knowledgeable when it comes to the menu. Don't be afraid to ask them questions. I have visited here multiple times and I can really vouch for their consistency and drive to deliver great service. I have never came across any problems and the frequent visits to our tables is definitely appreciated. Hanjan is such a wonderfully great option for an evening out or just to hang out! This place is such a gem in a very industrious sector of the city.

Ordered from this location instead of Oliver by mistake and what a disaster! Absolutely tasteless stew - the sauce seemed to be little more than water. To make matters worse, they forgot the rice cakes completely ($5 worth), even after calling my cell to ask where I wanted them (eg on the side). The udon noodle dish had three very measly pieces of chicken and was equally lacking in flavour. The kimchi pancake was delicious and the other items (fried chicken, corn & cheese appetizer) serviceable but the overall the experience was extremely disappointing, especially because the Oliver location is always excellent so I was really looking forward to dinner tonight.

The food was good BUT all the glasses and water jug was dirty.. talk about authentic street food experience. To start, we got the complimentary kimchi, bean sprout salad, fish cakes, and mashed potatoes. I really liked the mashed potatoes, it was different. Bulgogi taco has a sweet sauce on top like a Korean domain with sweet sauce. Bulgogi Fries were delicious. It was covered with small pieces of bulgogi beef, tomatoes, scallions, and their house sauce. Japchae was cooked perfectly and the sauce was a good consistency. I think if they were to address their dirty dishes better, such as cleaned them when I asked a few times or gave me some hot tea to rinse my dishes and utensils lol This would have changed my experience much more but it didn't seem like anyone cared. What really threw me off was when I saw a mucus string of something floating in all of our waters and we haven't even gotten our food yet.

Hanjan is another new Korean spot to open up and of course, it's on the south side. It's located right beside Izakaya Tomo so you can't miss it. Sister restaurant to Mama Lee's Kitchen, I've heard pretty mixed reviews but decided to check it out for dessert Sunday night. The inside is hipster but unique, in particular for Edmonton. The umbrella patio sets inside are a cute touch along with the hanging lightbulbs. They did a great job with decor. There's an upstairs with two private rooms for karaoke. The downstairs is even more spacious and has about 5 private booths to sit at. Music is blasting but the playlists were good. Love how Hanjan is open till 2:00am (3:00am on Friday and Saturday!). Finally some legitimate late night hangout spots. It's a cafe during the day, then restaurant/hang out spot at night. Menu is a one pager with tons of choices: starters, shared, rice, deep fried, wokked, grilled, stir fried and stew/soup. - Injeolmi bingsu ($12.00) - this bingsu was the only non-fruity one. Topped with rice cake, red bean, condensed milk, pulse flour and sliced almonds. The shaved ice was silky smooth, creamy and the texture was just spot on. The injeolmi rice cakes tasted like homemade mochi. Satisfyingly good! Will have to come back to try their other options. 3.5 stars.

One of my favorite Korean restaurants! Especially like the beef kimchi soup, every time I ordered this , the soup very tasty !!

Not the first time I've been there but I've never seen it as busy as this time round. It was really busy. They couldn't clear out tables fast enough and had a waitlist going. But we got there just before the dinner rush really picked up. The food as always was AMAZING and very hot (which some places don't always do). As always the decor and vibes were great and loved the ambiance of being outside inside.

Enjoyed our night out at Hanjan. The decor feels like we were not in Edmonton. The only issue was the karaoke that is upstair. The sound from upstairs is not isolated so you hear all the horrible and amazing people who are singing. They have a service button , which is very nice, but I do notice if you don't press it they wont come. So press the button.... We wanted something light so we ordered tacos, spicy boneless wings, and for dessert ... toast! The taco were pretty good! Definitely tasted the bulgogi flavour, it is more on the sweet side. The spicy boneless chicken wing was very good and hot (temperature). It was pretty spicy after the 2nd piece. The meat was very juicy, we will order this again. I was told the toast was very good here. So we had to try it. It looks like a game cube when it came out, but the toast was pretty delicious... the whip and drizzles added more flavour to the toast. I recommend it if you want to try something different for dessert. Service was pretty slow and they didn't clear our plates away when we finished our meal. Other than that I would come back to try different items on the menu!

Staff has always been super friendly and helpful! Food is always hot and delicious, and of course, nothing can beat the hanjan atmosphere. Hanjan is a really popular birthday/hangout spot amongst me and my friends and we always have an awesome time! Highly recommend the Japchae and Pork Belly! also the Strawberry Bingsu for dessert rec! :) Enjoy!!

This is a fun place to come with friends. They have e karaoke. Super delicious food and variety of choices. BBQ is great!

Visited Hanjan on a Saturday evening for my birthday. I was super excited because I love Korean food and have heard only good things about this place. And I was not disappointed!! The restaurant its self is beautiful! Has a woodsy but modern feel to it. I love the upstairs portion and the private booths. The service was perfect, especially because they have that awesome call button system where you page the server when you need them instead of them coming on their own discretion. We ordered: Galbi - so good, less sweet & more savoury Japchae - LOVED these Teriyaki chicken - very tasty, the chicken is so moist Sweet + Spicy Fried Chicken - amazing!! crispy batter, moist chicken, delicious sauce Honey Butter Bread - this was fantastic, i highly recommend! it's made fresh in house, it comes out super warm and soft. Their kimchi is also very nice and doesn't have a strong fermented taste to it. I also enjoyed the sprouts. (I'd say you can feed 5 people with this amount of food) All together this costed about 100 bucks!! which i'd like to say is super affordable for the amount of food you get. Overall, i will 100% be returning to Hanjan. The atmosphere, food and service are all up to par and make for a pleasant experience.

This place changed my life! My wife, in general, dislikes Korean food. I would almost say 'hates' it but we don't use that word in our house. She is always so unhappy when I suggest Korean and when we have tried it we usually walked out disappointed. Hanjan has changed all that. She enjoyed it so much that she wants to go for Korean again. Thank you Hanjan! As it was our first time here, the waitress spent some time and offered suggestions from the menu. She went through their most popular dishes from appetizers all the way to desserts. In the end we decided on the Lunch Combo 2 which includes Kimchi Jjigae, Dak Galbi, Gamja Croquette, japchae, salad, pa jeon, rice and banchan. You would never go wrong with this selection but know that is is a lot of food. It is probably enough for 3 to 4 people. For the two of us, we took a fair amount home. Everything we had was excellent with the duk galbi and the croquettes being standouts. My wife enjoyed everything except the pa jeon (scallion seafood pancake) which was just too much onion for her. We'll be back. No question. I love the enclosed entrance, the lighting and the side booths. If there is anything amiss it could be that the tables and chairs on the main floor could be nicer. I would be disappointed if all the booths were taken and we were stuck in the middle on a special occasion. At least you know the food will be good not matter where you sit.

Went here for lunch on the weekend. Super chill place with great selections of coffee and drinks. We ordered combos for 2 people and worth it. I totally recommend combo 2 as you get a taste of everything. Staff was nice and welcoming. There were seats on the top floor but we never went there. I also heard you could book a room upstairs for karoke which is super cool.

New Location in the Hargate: 114 st north of Jasper Ave. Nice room, great food! Support this place.

We were here for lunch today. The interior is one of the best in town, and the food is very authentic Korean style. The side dishes are very tasty, especially the butter potato salad with chopped pickles. For the dishes: We ordered Bossam: it is sliced pork belly, with lettuce, garlic slices, pickled radish and a house special soybean paste to dip. I found the radish more attractive for me because it tastes amazing! For two of us, this dish is a huge portion, not something you can just finish so we took it home. Japchae, which is stir fried glass noodle with chopped carrots, spinach, mushrooms and beef slices. It tastes salty, sweet and chewy. We both liked it! Personally I found it a little too sweet, as I don't like adding sugar to the dishes for my own cooking. Bibimbap: a variety of vegetables and beef, topped with a sun fried egg, delicious! Very authentic! While we were having lunch, there was a group of people using flashlight and cameras non-stop, which I found it very annoying... I really hope people can stop taking sooooooo many pictures allllllll the time in a restaurant. It is a public place where people are trying to have a good time. I just think it is kinda selfish just to shine lights on other people while they are eating (tables around) while taking photos forever. So I gave it a four star review, cuz the food and atmosphere are great! Regardless of the ones who are not mindful for people around.

A long overdue review but this place is definitely worth mentioning! Upon arrival, Hanjan greets you with its beautiful decor including string lights and brick walls. It's spacious interior had me immediately thinking that this space would be perfect for private events. I loved that the space had high ceilings with two stories. Our group came for the food but of course had to try Hanjans unique lattes including the Charcoal flavour. As we sat at our table, we were plesantly surprised that the table had a "call" button for our waiter. This was very convenient! For food, we tried a wide variety including PaJeon, Cheese Buldak and Bossam (lettuce wraps). Everything we tried was amazing but the dish that stood out the most was the PaJeon (seafood pancake). My friend told us that this was made like the ones she tried in Korea! Overall we really enjoyed our time at HanJan. Even though the food is great, the ambiance adds a nice touch that will definitely be bringing us back!

I have been to this place multiple times because I love everything about this place. They serve Korean food and is typically for a shareable size. I would recommend coming here with a group of three or more. It can get busy during Fridays and weekends but you can get reservations. I really like the ambience of this place. It is homey but modern. I always get Bossam and Dak Twigim. The meals also come with banchan or mini side dishes. Bossam is steamed pork lettuce wraps. I love the balance of the fatty pork and the freshness of the lettuce. And making your own wrap and putting your preferred fillings is just fun. However I wish they added more lettuce because we always end up running out of lettuce before we finish all the pork. Dak Twigim is their fried chicken covered in a sweet and spicy sauce (I get the sauce on the side just a personal preference). This is just no ordinary fried chicken. It is very light, fluffy, crispy, and delicious. We ended our meals with some mango bingsu and nutella banana waffle. The mango bingsu was good. The ice was smooth and the ice cream made it taste better. However, some of the mangoes were a bit sour and less sweet. The waffle tasted great. It was served warm and it complemented the ice cream, whipped cream, bananas, and the chocolate sauce well. Overall, I would highly recommend this place if you want to try out some Korean food, desserts, and drinks.

Amazing food! Great dining experience I highly recommend this place. Really authentic

I have not ventured so much in the Korean cuisine other than the fast food chains out there. But one thing I know, Korean food taste amazing. And this brings us to Hanjan. They did a very nice job with the decor. Really feels like you walk in on a patio. They also have an upstairs with more seating and karaoke lounge. The upstairs is used for some storage as well so it kind ruin the decor they had going, or can add some cachet, depending on the point of view. Okay, FOOD. We were a big group and everyone really enjoyed their food. We had a grab and share type of thing going on so I tasted lots. From the dumpling to the fried chicken to the Dak Galby. Also their prices a very reasonable. Even for booze. We ordered their soju and it's great! As for the service, it was a bit odd. It seems we didn't have a designated server for our group. Let's say they have a very casual way of doing things. One nice touch is they had a button to call the server. They were there instantly! I think it deserves a 4 star because my overall experience was awesome! Good job! Edit: The next day I learned that some of the bill had to be paid twice as they didn't remove it from the POS following the payment. It's something they'll have to work on as I thought it was disorganized.

Quite honestly, this place is impressive! It does a darn good job at Korean food from main courses (with all the delicious side dishes!), some great beverages, and also Korean desserts! Yes indeed, this place can deliver on the trifecta of deliciousness: beverages, main courses, and desserts! I've been here twice now and I've truly enjoyed my food. From honey bread to chai lattes, from charcoal lattes, to many different main course items and sides, my groups have been happy with the food and the service. Like many Korean restaurants, this place has buttons at the table to summon the wait staff to take your orders. This location also advertises karaoke as an option (though we haven't partaken in this enjoyable pass-time). The decor is rustic and includes some semi-private rooms if you'd like more privacy for your group. We like using the room that is to the right of the door as you come in. Most dishes are good for sharing. There is ample parking here. I'm sure it gets busy later in the day but we've mostly visited for weekend lunch.

What a pleasant surprise! Me and my partner in crime hit up Hanjan for lunch after a hard morning of furniture shopping in the area. We're so glad we did! Hanjan has this really cool Korean street vibe, the decor is setup to make it feel like you're eating on a patio (great for vanquishing those winter blues). You can eat out at an open table or if your want a bit more privacy they have booths. Service was fantastic, we were very well looked after during our stay. We went for the $30 lunch deal, and boy were we impressed. There was a sufficient amount for two (more than sufficient actually as we had to leave some). Highlights included the fish cake, the spicy pork belly and the potato salad. Yum! For a drink I tried the beet latte and was impressed. I will def be back.

Great place for Korean food in Edmonton. The vibe was great including the restaurant being decorated for Christmas/New Year's and appropriate music. We sat on the main floor but upstairs looks like it would be great for a large party. The food and drinks were great and priced fair. We would recommend sharing dishes rather than ordering your own. Korean Fried Chicken was good but not as good as some of the specialty restaurants like SFC. The Cheese Buldak was probably the best thing we ordered. Bossam was also good. Soju drink we got was also good - would be a good place to come just for drinks. Service was prompt and friendly despite it being busy on a Saturday night.

I love hanjan. Their bulgogi fries are bomb. Bulgogi anything bomb. Their japchae is bomb. Just love this place.

The food here is amazing! We always get the yangyum chicken, japchae glass noodles, and galbi short rips. service is always fast as well!
