Korean Food Express

Came here for takeout on a Tuesday night. I got the bulgogi bento box ($ 10.10). Overall it was okay. You get what you pay for.
Pros:
— cheap (comparatively, bulgogi at other korean restaurants nearby would be $ 5-​$ 10 more expensive)
— substantial amount of food (sides include spring roll, 1 kimbap, japchae, bean sprouts, etc.)
Cons:
— the bulgogi was a bit dry but still tasty
— the spring roll was soggy, but I did get take out so I didn’t expect it to taste as fresh and crispy
— cash only, no receipts
I did see everyone else after me get the pork bone soup, so I will be back to try that. The service wasn’t bad. I went at around 7:30pm and only waited a few minutes for my food.

Gamjatang for $ 8.00!
This is one of my go-to’s in the FMP food court. I’ve only ever had the #5 Gamjatang combo, but it’s so good that I can’t bring myself to get anything else. With the combo, you also get a side plate of the appetizers — glass noodles, kimchi, potatoes, bean sprouts. The portion of meat you get in the Gamjatang is huge too! I don’t think the quality of the gamjatang is anything special, but you get a lot of bang for your buck.

This is my first time trying Korean food express due to the good reviews on Unilocal.My BF tried the pork bone soup and found it was very good. It’s quite tasty actually and $ 9 is a decent price. Over-​all I would say Korean Food express is definitely one of the better places to get food in this food court.
Now I would try Galleria Supermarket’s pork bone soup to compare quality.

Love this place! Love their #20 (Tofu Kimichi) order, I always get it. The owner is super kind and friendly. When I order I ask if i can change something, and she would always allow it. So, whenever I go there, she memorized my order, and also she speaks a bit of Cantonese, but she is korean. If your new to Korean food she would explain to you what each order contains. I would recommend this place. It’s affordable, cheap, quick and service is very friendly.

Great food for the price. I ordered bulgogi on rice meal bento to go. The food is always fresh and hot. The bulgogi rice comes with a side of clear noodles, spring roll, kimchi, miso soup, maki roll, potatoes and beans sprouts. I always love coming here, the lady is super friendly and cheerful. This is definitely my default food court restaurant at First Markham Place.

The lady who works here is so nice and funny! Been coming here a lot more for some quick take out (usually the spicy rice cake dish) and recently tried the kimbab– it’s yummy!!! They don’t skim on the brushed on sesame oil!

This place is so good! Totally wasn’t expecting it to be this good. My family and I ordered the Pork Bone soup, the Kimchi fried rice, the Donkatsu (you can order pork or chicken), and the Jajangmyeon. The flavors of the Pork bone soup was just to die for! The kimchi fried rice had some spiciness to it, unlike many kimchi fried rice I had before which were just bland. The Donkatsu was super crispy and delicious. Everything came with side dishes (kimchi, bean sprouts, buck wheat noodles, fish cakes, and some came with miso soup), but the Donkatsu came with an extra Kimbap, Potato, and a Spring roll. Lastly the Jajangmyeon. Out of the other food we ordered, I’m sad to say that the Jajangmyeon was the one that lacked in flavors the most, but wasn’t too bad. Overall I would come back to this place because the food is just so good! Everything there was under $ 10 and they gave you so much food. This place is just truly amazing, and you’ll differently not believe that the food came from a food court in First Markham Place.

i love this joint!!! the pork bone soup is such value for your money! the bim bim bap or whatever is perfect. not too much rice and the perfect amount of veggies and meat. that red sauce is to die for. so appetizing. i have not tried the rest of the menu but i will. two thumbs up for this place. it’s inside first markham place in the food court.

Took the recommendation of Amy Z. and got the cold noodles $ 9 taxes in. Meal comes with small plate of side dishes (potato, bean sprouts, glass noodles, kimchii). The side dishes were all good and tasted fresh. The cold noodles was excellent. Smooth and had good chew to it. You also get some beef slices, raddish and boiled egg. Everything went well together. Portions were filling and it was a refreshing meal on a hot summer day.
For food court type food it is definately really good.
Solid 3.5 stars

I love coming here when I want some Korean food, especially for the pork bone soup. Great portions and I always have trouble finishing the whole bowl by myself. I noticed that they have increased the price from reading past reviews however it is still a great value and I love that tea and side dishes are also included. My friend tried the mackerel but it wasn’t as good.

This is one of the reasons I love FMP food court for lunch. My office is a few minutes away so this is a great choice for me when I’ve been dreaming about delicious korean food all morning while doing my work…
The lady that works here is very nice and she’s BADASS! She has a shoulder tattoo sleeve, which is rare in korean women. She’s always smiley and appreciative of your business. My favourite thing to get here is the naeng myun! Aka, cold noodles for the summertime. OMG, it is delicious!!! Everything is seasoned just right and the chilled broth is to die for… every bite I was taking made me question myself «Is this deliciousness REALLY happening right now???» I also love the jajangmyun. so creamy and delicious… wow… I am making myself hungry just by writing this review.
The food also comes with typical korean side dishes (jap chae, kimchi, potato.) Prices are typical, not ‘chinese food court cheap’ but it’s reasonable!
Overall a very good choice for a food court and will return.

We come here a lot for the pork bone soup. It is sometimes a tad salty but the flavour of the soup is really good. It’s a lot better than Nak Won (which is not as flavourful and has a strong ginger taste) but not as good as the Owl. But for the price you pay, the pork bone soup is great.
We’ve tried some other dishes too. Had the stone pot rice and the chicken katsu too. Both dishes were quite good and you seen to get a really decent sized portion. The people that work here are all nice and pleasant. Always smiling and welcoming.
Would highly recommend you try the food here.

My new go to place for Korean food takeout! Great tasting combos: beef bulgogi, grilled mackerel, bibimbap…
A bit dry with the chicken katsu. Though the order had generous portions.
We call in advance for take-​out as we noticed it does take a bit of time to cook up. Not so express after all? Though food is tasty and we do come back.

I had the Pork Bone soup of course, and it was delicious. I’m no food expert, but it tasted just as good as a restaurant’s, except the price was lower. Really good. I would go back, obviously.

Great soup and side dishes. Almost five stars, but need to sample the other dishes to be sure.
The kimchi is good and the pork bone soup is huge! Can feed two easily!
Obviously since it’s in a stone bowl, expect a 10 – 15 minute wait, but it’s worth it. It’s like going to a restaurant, but without the hassles.

Their side dish is YUMMY! so far I only tried Pork Bone Soup, it only cost $ 6.25 + tax = $ 7.00 Cheap & Tasty! Most pork bone soup price go up alot but only this place remain good value and good quality! I have to mention their side dish again, large portion, fresh, and delicuous! :)

I don’t normally leave reviews but I’d be doing a disservice if I didn’t for this place. The Bulgogi here is literally the best I’ve ever had by far! Korean is my fav cuisine so I’ve sampled a lot of Bulgogi from all over the GTA. I keep coming back to this place just for the same dish. Forget the fact that it’s in a food court. You will not find better Bulgogi anywhere!

The pork bone soup is actually pretty good here. You get more than enough side dishes as well.
I recently tried the pork tofu soup, pleasantly surprised I might say. Although I think it needed more meat. But, am a meat person. Lol

I tried the Gamjatang (pork bone soup) and it was just a little over $ 6. It came with the main soup, bowl of rice, and some side dishes (potatoes, kimchi, bean sprouts, kelp, and starch noodles). I think it was a good sized meal for the price (relative to other food court eateries), but I think the taste could be more spicy. The gamjatang could definitely use more Korean spicyness to it!

If you looking for some non Chinese food option inside First Market Place’s food court, Korean Food Express is one of the choices…
(Why I am looking for non Chinese Food in FMP is another story…)
Samgyetang ($ 8.95)
— Strong aroma for ginseng with thin sliced of ginseng
— ½ young chicken stuffed with rice and dates…
— really comforting for on this rainy/​cloudy afternoon
Korean lady is really friendly and nice… will answer all sort of questions about the menu.
I will be here for Naengmyeon ($ 6.95) next time!!!
