Gogi Korean Kitchen - Downtown, Calgary

I had an amazing meal here! The bibimbap bowl was fresh, colorful, and packed with flavor. The combination of perfectly seasoned beef, crispy fried egg, and fresh veggies like spinach, carrots, and bean sprouts over rice made for a balanced and hearty dish. The dumplings were a standout—crispy, golden, and topped with a flavorful sauce that complemented them perfectly. They were the perfect side dish to pair with the main bowl. I also loved the refreshing Dole orange juice that rounded out the meal. Everything was well-presented and served quickly. Definitely a place I’d recommend for a delicious and satisfying meal. Will be coming back soon!

Loved this restaurant! The bibimbap was delicious; as soon as I smelt it, it was like being in Korea! Great prices too. Would absolutely return if we're ever visiting Calgary again.

Lovely little place to satisfy your bibimbap craving. Seating and decor make it feel more spacious than it is - the wall is a nice touch 👍

Ordered the beef noodle soup with glass noodles and it’s delicious! The broth is so delicious especially. The service was also wonderful, the woman at the counter was very polite and lovely.

Cute little Korean restaurant. Great for a quick bite! I got the Bao buns and the fried chicken skewer and both were very yummy! The staff were very friendly, service was quick, and food was delicious. Couldn't ask for anything better!

Date of dine in - June 16th 2024 ⭐ you can get a nice filling bowl of food or a meaty poutine for $5-$10 at this establishment (receipt photo provided) 👍 Today me and my girlfriend visited for a mid evening lunch/dinner with her being Korean she loved the availability of the Korean snacks and drinks at a incredibly affordable price aswell as the dishes available seems very authentic to the taste of South korea for her, I was astonished by not only the price of the dishes $8-15 that's including combos for some items we ended up each getting a dish and then a order of the bulgogi poutine to share I included the receipt photo as you can't be too sure seeing reviews online but wow just amazing not only the delicate beautiful plating and very authentic taste aswell as surprisingly the tip option only begins at 10% and goes to 25%, we ended up ordering more than we could finish as with the price we weren't expecting the filling large portions and as I say in most my reviews when the menu has 15 items or less you're aware the chef and staff know what they're doing and doing it incredibly well without trying to hard, the front counter lady was very friendly as we hadn't experienced their type dining in with a order first and pay then await to get your food all food was pre packaged into To-go containers even for dine in which is a good choice in this day and age and bamboo utensils/chopsticks. The chef or kitchen supervisor on duty was in the dining area as we were finishing our meals and couldn't help myself but thank him personally for the amazing food he said he was proud to be serving and other customers also thanked him wholeheartedly after finding out he was the one preparing their meals, The whole experience felt like home cooking at a price that reminds you of a time prior to economic struggle and the atmosphere is beautiful with light blue wall with plants and vine decor along a metal backdrop and white plank walls creating a modern but inviting atmosphere with a little music in the background but quiet enough to comfortably talk and laugh over some amazing food, living very close we will definitely be regular customers and even got a extra bulgogi poutine to go as the beef gravy is undoubtedly not from a stock block but instead very very flavourful as it's most likely made from beef drippings, and the poutine has very high quality cuts of beef that melt in your mouth. incredible and will be writing a follow up review as we return and try other menu options. Also any establishment in 2024 I can spend a toonie for a pop beats any gas station or other stores. Out of all my reviews this reigns among the top 1-2 and Once again compliments to the chef and A++ to the service and quality, I can't recommend this establishment more to everyone even just for a try that costs as much as a breakfast sandwich at a coffeeshop you will be hooked immediately.

The food was just ok, I was puzzled by the incredibly high rating on Google maps until I saw a sticker on the table that said they would give free soda to anyone who left a 5 star review...

Very good food and helpful service. I enjoyed my lunch here. I saw it was well reviewed so wanted to visit. Saw it was open until 9PM, I got there 8:40 sign was on, but I was turned away. Came back next day as it was so well reviewed. Food was great and seemed affordable. Losing a star due to my frustration from the night before.
