Table 85 - Ottawa

I've never had Korean food and was wondering why everyone was saying the chicken was so incredible. So I obviously decided to have the fried chicken with shrimp fried rice and noodles with black bean sauce.A couple of things to note, it's a whole chicken and takes 30 minutes to prepare. It's too much food but it's good to have leftovers. I recommand getting it half sweet and spicy (it's mostly sweet, not very spicy) and teriyaki. The chicken comes cut up, breaded and dipped in sause. The breading is thin and crunchy. There is no grease and chicken is really most. It was really wonderful.I usually don't like rice because it feel it is filler, but their rice was really good however. It was full of thinly shredded vegatibles and shrimp. It was a really good combination with the chicken. Also had black bean noodles which tasted a bit different but was good too.The restaurant itself is very plain but clean in the basement of an office building.It's not open for dinner on Sunday's, which was why we ended up having a late lunch there.For 3 dishes, it came to $60, with leftovers for 2 more meals each. I actually had the left overs for dinner that night. The leftovers heat really awesome in the microwave. It tasted exactly the same as during lunch. So if you want a one line statement. The chicken is awesome and reheats extremely well for additional meals.

So good...not over seasoned at all. Friendly staff, will be back! We had a noodle dish and shrimp fried rice. Both, so delicious! Thrilled to find a great Korean restaurant in Ottawa.

Let me start with WOW! The Korean fried chicken from table 85 is amazing! We have only eaten inside once. An unusual experience as it is in the basement of an office building. We usually order take out (order 30 minutes before you want to pick it up). The sweet and spicy fried chicken is by far my favourite fried chicken.

Three times in the same week I heard about this Korean fried chicken place. So we headed down on our first free night. The restaurant has a total cafeteria-in-a-corporate building feel. In this case i think the restaurant might be new, and based on Friday night traffic, ready to jump to a bigger store front soon. (We arrived at 7pm, got the last free table and waited 45 minutes for food while two people worked steadily to get about 10 take-away orders together, serve us and the four parties ahead of us). But for now it's my favourite kind of hole-in-the-wall where the food speaks for itself. We ordered the fried (whole) chicken: half original, half sweet and (not) spicy, and the jajong noodle bowl. Delicious! I dont know how they do it, but the fried chicken wasnt greasy. The noodles and veg were delicious. My zucchini-hating bf had no idea he was scarfing the same until we were almost done. Our order turned out to be too much food for 2 people, and too delicious to let it go to waste. We packed up the leftovers to take away. Three meals for $60 (including 20% tip) is a great deal. We'll be back!

I have tried all the korean restaurant in Ottawa and this one is the best. It might be in the remax building, but the food is worth it. I eat there at least once a month. The prices are good. I really recommend it.
