Oh! Zzhu Sam Korean Restaurant

Small order of M2 on the menu. (Octopus pop, belly part intestine.)We added cheese. Then rice at the end. So yummy!! For people that can’t eat spicy. Can ask for less spicy.We didn’t order anything else.Good size for two people.

I recently ordered takeout from this restaurant and was pleased to find that the to-go box was completely sealed, ensuring that there were no odors in my car when I picked it up. The quality of the packaging was high. However, I was a bit disappointed with the food itself. The baby octopus was too fishy for my liking and there were only a few pieces included. The dish mainly consisted of pork belly, which was much cheaper than the baby octopus. The taste was good but overall, it was just okay and not outstanding.

I'm a big fan of korean cuisine cozy, deep flavours and lots of love. Hits the soul.And I am also quite strict in reviewing Korean food because I eat it often despite never having visited korea yet!I've eaten pretty close to 90% of all korean restaurants in the GVRD region that are 4+ stars.I've had my eyes on this place for awhile now since it opened maybe around I believe 2 years ago so still a relatively new restaurant.I've been living in Burnaby pretty much all my life for 3 decades now. We have never really had any good korean restaurants here very few in fact only until recently more are popping up.This place is almost like a hole in the wall but not quite definitely the menu is geared more so towards a younger late night crowd however it has many traditional korean dishes as well.Family run with dad, 2 daughters (That I saw) and maybe I believe mom was in the kitchen it is a hidden gem, but not so hidden anymore.Fresh ingredients, great service, good prices, big portions but most importantly the taste was amazing, a hybrid of home cooking with professional execution a.k.a old school cooking with some modern twists added.Come here for their kimchi jiggae, it is definitely one of the best in GVRD and if a korean restaurant makes good kimchi jiggae, they are usually going to excel in their other dishes which this place did.Will be a regular here since it is so close to my home!Come here early as they fill up quite fast and do not take reservations.There are now quite a few korean restaurants within the metrotown edmonds area (Around 8 10) 5 km radius zone and this one is, in my opinion top 3.

The food was served promptly and piping hot. It had a slightly sweet flavor that I enjoyed. I was delighted with the meal and would definitely recommend it to others.

I ordered the Zzhusam with Cheese add ons, which included the Zzhuring Cheese Ball and Honey Garlic Chicken. They were delicious and the staff was extremely friendly. This local Korean restaurant is a must-try!
