    The food was excellent. We ordered bugogi beef and short ribs to bbq. These were excellent and then ordered vegetable bibimbap and a tofu stew on the side because we thought there would not be enough vegetables but it was great. There was lots of sides and it came with lettuce. Service was awesome and fast. Only thing is I wish they could adjust spice level because we wanted to order a hot pot but they said it was spicy so we did not want to chance that but would have ordered if they could have adjusted it.

    Joodam is hands down our go-to spot! We love exploring new places, but we always find ourselves coming back here. The servers are incredibly polite, and the food is consistently fresh and absolutely delicious. While we have our favorites like the Bulgogi and Fried Chicken, every new dish we try is just as amazing. And unlike many Canadian pubs, you can count on getting an actually COLD beer here. Definitely a very good experience every time!
