Absolutely delicious and I highly recommend this place. You can see th care and passion with which th chefs prepare your food (they actually taste as they go to make sure things are right) and the servers are so kind and courteous. The service is fast and the food is authentic; my roommate is Korean and says it tastes like home. I got #5 (the soup), the other photos are for the Bulgogi beef and bimimbap. All excellent
sooooo good. i got the yukgaejang (spicy beef soup #3) which was super flavourful and so comforting after a cold day outside. not as much meat as i was expecting but lotsa onion which i like. i tried the gamjatang too and it has so much meat and the soup is also super flavourful, a spicy sour mix and i'm def getting that next also love the side dishes esp the sweet soy potatoes
The most authentic Korean food you could get in Ottawa. Try going for their soup menus.
I recently visited In’s Kitchen while traveling from Toronto to Ottawa, and it was a delightful experience. As an Asian traveler, I often miss the flavors of home, and this restaurant exceeded my expectations. The food was authentic, delicious, and prepared with care. The dishes were perfectly seasoned, and the portions were generous. What made the experience even better was the kind and attentive staff. They made sure we were comfortable and went out of their way to accommodate our requests. The warm atmosphere and excellent service made it feel like a home away from home. If you're in Ottawa and craving some genuine Korean cuisine, I highly recommend In’s kitchen. It's a must-visit for anyone who appreciates great food and hospitality!
I am a Korean but lived in Canada for more than 50 years. By chance i came across In’s Kitchen. It is very clean and staffs are very professional Best of all the food is authentically Korean and tasty. I recommend In’s if you ever come to Ottawa. The price is very reasonable too. Try “ seulungtang” You will love it. Better than most korean restaurants in Toronto. Chef, Ms IN greeted us in person to show us her hospitality and it was added bonus to talk to the Chef and find out about the background of the restaurant
Really nice place to come and have lunch/dinner. Prices are fair the amount of food given. I would come here for lunch sometimes and it’s never once disappointed me.
Delightfully savoury, generous and filling authentic Korean food, warm and friendly service and lovely atmosphere in a cozy, spacious, and clean location. I love places with focused menus, because I know then it’s hard to go wrong and any dish will be good. I’ve had the spicy beef stew twice now. Ingredients were flavourful and fresh and the sides made for a lovely addition.
This was the best Korean restaurant we had during our long trip! We completely devoured every dish—yukgaejang, seolleongtang, gamjatang, spicy pork, bulgogi, and soft tofu stew. Everything was absolutely delicious. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming—thank you so much! If you’re looking for a Korean restaurant in Ottawa, I 100% recommend this place! We enjoyed the food so much that we forgot to take any photos!
