My first time at the famous owl of Minerva. Always heard about here and it didn’t disappoint it. Restaurant is simple causal dining. Everything we had was excellent. Very tasty and rich in flavour.You get house kimchi, cucumbers and bean sprouts as starters. It was very good. The kimchi is strong but tasty and the cucumber and bean sprouts balance it nicely.Will visit again.

We got Chicken Dupbap and Bibimbap. They gave the food in plastic containers which may actually make the portion of our food smaller. The chicken DupBap was very delicious as the spiciness paired nice with the bell peppers and button mushrooms. The chicken was juicy and went nice with the egg. The bibimbap came with bibimbap sauce, a sauce that is reminiscent to that of ketchup but sweeter. The bibimbap was not that good as the seaweed, (shiitake) mushroom, bean sprout and other cold veggies in the dish were not satisfying to eat. Imagine eating a warm egg with warm beef mixed with cold vegetables… they should perhaps keep the vegetables for bibimbap at room temperature in advanced because it ruins the experience. Each dish was $14.99. They give you free side dishes if bean sprout, cucumber, and kimchi. The bean sprout and cucumber, cucumber especially, were nice however the kimchi was too sour and honestly disgusting. When you first arrive they ask if you want tea or water, now I don’t know what type of tea they have but it tasted not like green or black tea. Maybe it was turmeric I honestly don’t know. But they do give okay portions for the price. Now, the customer service is excellent, she was attentive to our table the whole time and was very nice. Near the end of us eating many people came inside to eat and she didn’t even seem to be under much stress, that is a good thing!

Everything we tried on the menu was delicious. Staff was outstanding and accomodating. Highly recommended 10/10

Great food, fast service, and friendly staff. They follow COVID-19 protocols really well. They used to be open 24 hours but recently they haven’t. Hope that changes. Amazing place overall.

Love to go to this place with my friends. The god always comes quickly and usually tastes really good. The staff is friendly and always willing to listen to you. The takeout is also really good. The food is packaged really nicely. As the sides of you decide not to have all but really want one. They will make sure to give you extra of it. Which is always amazing

Quick service. Well packaged Gamjatang and sealed for take out. Food is as tasty as always. -1 star for limited side dish choices compared to other restaurants.

Never fails! Food is good, love that they are open much later in the night. Fast and efficient.

Always a pleasure visiting this location .one of the few restaurants that are welcoming foodies just before midnight.Service is very quick for the items you order. The servers are very helpful with making a great recommendation.Must try their short ribs, noddle soup bowls and other BBQ meat items.

Taste good. $$.

The food and atmosphere of the restaurant (when it is open) is great-- with the occasional subpar meal. In addition, the takeout option has been done excellently with sealed containers making it easy to keep the food warm and fresh on drives home. However, the service can sometimes leave a bit to be desired with standoffish staff and a resistance to correct mistakes in orders.

Food quality has been gone down a lot. We dine in this time. The way we were being asked ID and vaccine proof was super rude and unacceptable. We are not going back anymore for sure.

Disgraceful and dishonourable service. Ordered via Skip The Dishes. Received notification to pick up my order from a driver named Abigail. Go downstairs - no Abigail, no delivery. Called the restaurant - got told someone else took my order. Turns out Abigail doesnt ask for ID. Restaurant goes even further by saying not their issue - go contact Skip The Dishes. No apology no assurances theyll look into it. Just go figure it out. So lesson learned - avoid Abigail the Delivery Girl and avoid this restaurant. Whoevers enjoying my lunch right now...enjoy. :S What a disappointment.

Love the spicies and soups..Best late night food placeIf you love spicy food then definitely check it out

The restaurant is super busy! We were there at 9 pm on a Friday night. The food was great. All of us were happy about it. The beef soup I had was so so I would say. It was not very tasteful. They left a small plate of salt on the table. I added some. I guess it’s not for me. The kimchi pizza was good and I am not a fan of kimchi. I recommend the famous owl of minera.

Awesome korean comfort food, try the Dubu Kimchi, tasty stir fried pork with kimchi on tofu. For a family of four, try the Jokbal, pork hock wrapped in vegetables with korean spices and generous servings of kimchi. Go-to place for good bulgogi and japchae noodles. As well, take out or delivery containers are amazing. Soups are kept hot or warm as the containers they use are properly sealed.

My boyfriend, family, family of family, friends and I are so dedicated to coming to this location of Owl of Minerva. Their food is always so delicious, our mouths water at the thought of it. The portions are all shareable between 2 people, the price is more than reasonable. Very authentic taste of Korean cuisine even the waitor/waitresses are Korean which is awesome. (I always thought it was strange if the genre of food didnt match the wait staff). Our all time favourites is Tteokbokki, Kamchatang, L.A Kalbi (Large), all the side dishes 😍 and Kalbitang. That is usally what we always order but we have tried many other items on the menu like bossam, jok bal, chapchae, spicy squid, sundae, everything is amazing. 100% reccomend everything 😊

My go-to food place for late-night comfort food. Very authentic flavor with good service.

Not sure what it is with this specific location but I’ve had two bad experiences with my order over the last 6 months. First one was with my pork bone soup order. It was very watery, little flavour. The second was just a long wait Outside the restaurant. There was little organization. Uber drivers just cut right to the front frustrating other customers waiting. In the end they mixed up my order after 1 hour wait. I won’t be returning.The other locations are great. I’ve just had terrible experiences with this one. The staff were great but I think they are just overwhelmed resulting in the poor quality experience.

The staff was friendly the food was quick and tasty. I had the pork bone soup and I found that to be a healthy and feeling portion, and It was quite tasty. I also appreciated the side dishes and the rice which were all well done. Although it gets fairly busy the line moves fairly quickly as well.

I think I caught the staff on a bad day! They were awfully busy so it was understandable that the food was being pushed out is quick as possible. It lacked a little flavour, the Hamilton location was definitely better. But the food was authentically Korean, and the staff were extremely kind :)

Ive been to alot of Korean places in Canada and the Gta, this is the best

Went for dinner around 6 and it wasnt too busy. Lots of people waiting as we were eating our food. Food was delicious!

I heard of this place from so many people and so had to try it myself. I got the Bulgogi and it tasted so good. Will definitely try more dishes in the future.

Confident place for a late night snack. This place is open 24/7. They have a variety of Korean food and soups.The pork bone soup and kimchi stew here is delicious.Overall, the foods average. Just like any other Korean restaurant.Cash only if your bill is less then $20. But there is credit and debit available for bills over $20

I have been a loyal customer for a long time and always order Korean food from here. But today I had the worst customer service experience in my entire life!!! I tried to order a take out from this place and I am not Korean but I tried my best to pronounce the items from the menu. Of course, I didn’t get it right, instead of confirming the order with me, the staff raised her voice and keep telling me it is the location in Mississauga(which has nothing to do with my order), I then told her that I knew it and will pick up in that location. Finally after she correcting my pronunciation on every single dish I have ordered, she then ask for my phone number. While I was giving her my number, I missed a digit so I apologized and corrected myself multiple times. However, she didn’t listen to what I said and keep repeating the same number that I missed and gave up on me. When I arrived to pick up, she recognized my order and rolled her eye on me. I WILL NEVER ORDER FROM THIS STORE AGAIN!!!! So disrespectful staff!!!

It’s always super busy and the service is okay.. I’ve been here a couple of times and the taste of the food is always different. The reason I go back is because of the short distance from my place and during harsh cold winters, a bowl of soup makes me feel good.

First time went there. Good service nice food. Lots of space. The squid rings were delicious. A bit on the expensive side. Can get busy. Good to quickly shop and have a meal.

Really good food at affordable prices. Service is prompt and friendly.

Ive only been to this location once so I cant speak for the overall consistency but the food wasnt bad. Ill be sure to update my review if anything changes.🔹️I ordered the Gamjatang (Pork Bone Soup) which was Flavourful, Spicy and had a good quantity of fall-off-the-bone meat. It was served with a side of white rice.🔹️I also had an order of Spicy Rice Cakes on the side which were yummy.The side dishes were average. 3 spicy pickled vegtables and bean sprouts.Theres comfortable seating, and the service is friendly and prompt.IG @ameliadoesdinner

Walked in for a take out yesterday. No Hello, no Thank You, not even a word. Just pass the food over in a rude way. Never come back.

Great Korean food in mississauga and open 24 hours a day.

I always enjoy the flavours and food at Owl! This particular dish along with their pork bone soup are my all time favourite!

I have been a loyal customer for years; however, the taste has changed to bad recently. The soup taste was plain. I ordered galbi and it’s burned all time. No more order food from here again.

New fav Korean restaurant. Loved the food and the service

The first time I ordered their spicy pork they didn’t give nearly enough and now the second time they gave even less. Really frustrating when I payed over 15$ for the meal….

Prices are cheap and portions are huge for delicious food! This restaurant is very lively and is a hiden gem because of the amazing service, quality of food and the hours they stay open until. If you are hungry at 12am, this is the place to be. Definitely check out this restaurant, it quickly became a personal favourite for many people once they learned about it!

We ordered the pork bone soup because it had been really good before but this time around the stock was very watery and not as rich in flavour as before and didn’t have much vegetables so my mom was upset because she had expected one thing and we had received another. We called to let them know and the person on the phone was incredibly rude and repeatedly cut us off saying “okay, okay” as if to shut us up and then proceeded to just end the call on my mom who was left very upset. I ended up calling on my own cell and I admit I was upset this time around but there was the exact same result as well. Case and point is that this store has rude staff and will not take responsibility for any mistake.

Msg... but their yukgaejang and tangsooyuk are tasty :)

Always love ordering from here. Its fast service and always the same quality. Their kimchi pancake, deep fried dumplings and spicy bulgogi are my must haves.

Went on Monday Aug 16 to get food and got food poisoning from this place. Would not recommend going.

It was my first time here and we arrived at about 0200 in the morning. Almost all tables were occupied but that didn’t slow down the service. Loved the food, friendly service and the 24/7 operation.

This is my favourite Korean place of all time! Whenever I am in the city I love to go to Owl of Minerva! I have had bulgogi plate, steamed mandu (my favourite), bimbibap, royal rice cakes, spicy rice cakes and more! My husband now has a love of Korean food because of this chain!

Their korean rice meals are actually pretty good but a little too pricey for their portion size. The service was quick even on a busy Friday night. I did find a pretty large foreign object in my plate though. I think it was slim mahjong tile.

Yummy Korean food. Open 24 hrs, perfect if you crave for a hot meal in the middle of the night or day. Great discount during pandemic if you pay cash.

Loved the Deep Fried Dumplings and Pan Fried Japanese Gyoza .. and the Calamari where just purrfect

Great pork bone soup, the fried noodles with squid was good as well.

My favourite place in Mississauga. Of course the pork bone soup is what everyone gets here, but because I’m Muslim and the Umma that makes this great food is an angel, I recommend the DakChulPan. A unique dish only offered at this Owl, it’s a must try.

Fast friendly service. Food is tasty and reasonably priced. Open 24 hours! Great for late night cravings!

I had the most dried out pork Katsu ever made(worldwide since the dawn of time)!... It was so bad that it went to the bin.. At first I was excited with the portion size but since it was inedible it was just a waste of food.. Also it was a little weird to get kimchee with a Japanese dish ... Maybe the Korean dishes r good but I wont be going back there to try then.

I want to preface by saying this IS certifiably my all-time favourite restaurant. It really isnt even close. Ive dined here more times than I can actually count. That being said, I apologise for the photos I have to accompany this review, theyre admittedly screengrabs from my Instagram stories, and not really up to par (but better than nothing). That being said, I want to discuss some of my favourite dishes. Lets jump right in!Pork bone soup (Gamjatang) - PBS : This is overall my favourite dish. Its a rich pork bone infused broth, with just the right amount of spice, slight sweetness, and topped with the unique taste of perilla seeds. In this heavenly bowl (along with the broth), youll find whole pieces of unbelievably tender pork [mostly still attached to the bone], potatoes, cabbage, and green onions. There isnt personally anything Id change about this dish.Korean grilled beef (Bulgogi): This dish comes out fiery hot on a sizzling cast-iron dish and is served with a generous portion of rice in a separate bowl. The meat itself is juicy, thin slices of beef accompanied by tiny pieces of vegetables such as mushrooms, broccoli, sweet peppers, green peppers, and rice cakes. Its very savory, with a hint of sweetness. Theres also a spicy variety available, which is equally as good, if not better.Sweet & sour pork (Tangsuyuk): My friend and I had this because it came in a combo with 4 beers for a reasonable price and we were having a night out. That being said, I wasnt absolutely crazy about it. It pretty much describes itself taste-wise, sweet and sour, but predominantly clawingly sweet. It also comes with large chunks of vegetables such as peppers, broccoli, etc... which maintain their crispness. The meat itself is a bit soggy but still very tasty all in all.Korean dumplings (Mandu): These tasty little morsels are an amazing appetizer or side dish. Theyre formed of thinly veiled dough and filled with an amazing mixture of juicy ground pork (beef is an option as well) and green onions. Theyre pan fried, so they have just the right amount of carmelization, and theyre served with vinegar (rice wine, I believe) to balance the fattiness. In short, incredible.LA Galbi (Korean BBQ short ribs): Theyre pretty self-explanatory in terms of what they are, served on a sizzling dish like the bulgogi, and marinated to perfection. Served with rice on the side, as one would expect with BBQ.I couldnt detect much sweetness to these, very savoury and smokey. So, smokey that if you order multiple, youll be surrounded by a bit of a cloud of smoke. These have the right amount of chewiness to tenderness ratio, not fall of the bone, but thats a good thing in this case. Every bite releases more and more flavour. One of the pricier items, but assuredly worth every penny.Ive had quite a few other dishes from here including (but not limited to): spicy rice cakes (Tteokbokki), stir fried spicy marinated pork (JeYukBokeum), steamed pork (BoSsam), etc... They were all delicious, I mainly detailed above the dishes Ive had multiple times on various occasions and felt I could really attest to.Everything here is served with banchan (small complimentary side dishes), including: Spicy cucumbers (Oi Muchim), soybean sprouts (Kongnamool), and salted/fermented vegetables (Kimchi).One thing to note is that while this place is open 24 hrs, theyre almost always packed. They have a simple ticketed number system, where theyll ask you how many people youre with and give you a number. Theyll eventually call your number and seat you. Theres also a minimum for Interac purchases, $20 I believe, but dont quote me on that. Id have to double check. Be sure to grab a couple guava candies on your way out, theyre in a little basket by the register.

Ordered bulgogi & bibimbap takeout & told them we would arrive in 20 minutes. We got there exactly on time, and the food was COLD, including the beef!! (supposed to be “hot stone”). Clearly not freshly made. Wouldn’t go here again!

24 HOUR --love this place...

Good food and service

Ive ordered it on Uber eats, tasted very good, but Im always straggling with the packaging, it seals very good but too good to open, especially I dont have scissors or knife around me frequently, and the food I ordered just so different from the description, if theres picture uploaded as well would be more helpful😁

My go-to for late night snacks or meal! I’m usually up around after 11 pm and their hours are extended so it works out when I’m feeling a little hungry. Food quality & take-out packaging are perfect! Summers over and I absolutely enjoy their cold noodles, but the kimchi fried rice is what I always end up getting.

Never disappoints. Discovered on Uber Eats during the pandemic and every order Ive placed has been great.

Great place to dine in - but food got cold too fast for takeout. It was still delicious and a healthy option.

I come here at least five times. Very cheap, and taste not bad.

Great Bibimbaap every time! Not sure Im a fan of their table-side manners but overall, good food for a 24 hr joint.

Food is delicious but its slightly over priced which is why its not 5 star.

Yum yum yum. Delicious. Service was spot on, somewhat of a wait depending on your timing. We went early around 5 and we were able to get seated fast, there was a lineup when we left. We ordered the traditional ramen with beef ribs. Comes with an array of sides, sweet cucumbers and not too spicey kimchi.

Uber eat v g deluvery system awareness

Serves pretty good korean food. Certainly not the best if you are comparing korean restaurants in North York. However, in Mississauga, you probably cant get any better.

Descent food with long hours. Good for when youre randomly feeling hungry at 4 am. I have to say that their Kimchi is disappointing and has the metallic taste I associate with lower quality Kimchi. Overall, its not a bad place to eat, and the long hours and lively atmosphere at those odd hours create a certain ambiance that Id consider a welcome distraction from a mundane nigh spent working/studying/etc. The Korean options in Mississauga are lacking, so its nice to have Owl here.

I always go here for the Gumjatang aka pork bone soup. The service is fast and the food is consistent.

Best place for delicious Korean food, excellent service, super friendly staff. I always drop by here when Im in town.

Delicious food! Although would have love to dine in, but unfortunately, cause of covid-19 we couldnt. But always came back to this spot :)! Fast, warm and yummy food!

One of my favourites is number 57 on their menu. If your ever in the area and want some great tasting Korean food I would suggest owls and would suggest item number 57 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Uber eats and their own website price the ribs at S21.99, L29.99. I called to place a order and he told me it 24.99 and 35.99. I usually buy from here. I guess never again after this stunt.

Good taste & friendly service.....

Very good Korean comfort food. Specially during the cold weather.One thing their soup will be sealed in the container, so take out is very easy and safe.

Effing RUDE thats all I got to say.. people make phone calls to enquire and ask questions.. dont just hang up on people.

All the food taste great and price is good but the service is okay. It is understandable tho because they are always so busy.감자탕도 맛있지만 육개장 JMT

Good restaurant in mississauga. If you love Korean food this one is a must. Fast service and good price. I will return forsure

Delicious food and my go to for Korean food. They also have a good handle on Covid precautions with one way pathing, sanitizer etc. Pickup is very easy. Ive come here many times and will continue to do so

Budae jjigae is pretty good. Staff was friendly.

Loved it, excellent customer service 👍🏻

Great food and fast and friendly service .

I have been going to The Famous Owl of Minerva for years now. Its always been a go to spot for my friends and I. Obviously its not the best korean food ever but for the price its extremely worth it. Its affordable and tasty. My personal favorite is the Kimchi Fried Rice.

Food is really good! Everything on the menu is excellent.

Good fast food style Korean cuisine. This place is usually busy so expect to wait in line during dining hours. During covid, they are open and extremely efficient. We ordered 6 dishes, took about 15min to serve. Love their takeout containers, it’s sealed air tight.

Kam ja Tang is one of my favorite. Pork neck bones soup in a pot. The location is cozy and not big. The place for Korean food. Dine in starts at 5 p.m.

I have never had a bad meal here and they offer take-out during COVID!

I always have the bibimbap and it never disappoints! They have fast service as well.

Ginseng chicken soup is my favourite thing to order during winter time since it’s so nice and warm ❤️

This use to be my go spot for gamjatang for dine in and take out. My recent takeout experience was terrible, the soup was so watered down and the meat appeared to be reboiled. So disappointed at this.

La Kalbi is good, portion decent however sometimes too much fat and not enough meat.

Avoid dining there during lunch and dinner time.The dining seats and tables are too crowded.Food is good.

Open 24 hours (I hope still during this pandemic season). The dry bulgogi really good. The pork cutlet massive 👍😊

Must try their famous Pork Bone Soup!

This a great Korean restaurant in town. Food was exceptionally good and quick service. This place is really busy and always has a line for enter in. Cashier was so rude and refused to split the bill. However, still im giving 4 stars for the food and the service.

Very good Korean food

Favorite late night resto!!! spicy bulgogi is my fave!

The place can be kind of small and a bit loud, but either than that, it is really good there. I love their pork bone soup and their fried rice. They also have good food delivery service during this pandemic.

Everything here was perfect take out.their JOK BAL and their gam ja tong are a must order

Had a delicious meal here late at night! Unlike most 24hr places this one keeps up a consistent quality for food. Service is really fast and straight to the point. Portions were good and prices were fair. What more can you ask of a 24hr restaurant.

The Famous Owl of Minerva is one place among many authentic Korean restaurants owned and operated by Canadians of Korean origin. That is why from flavours to meal experience to quality of service is excellent in Korean standard. Very reasonable prices is one attraction that should be thankfully mentioned

This place is amazing! Food is always Super Fresh, and very very authentic. Theres a huge variety of different foods. Something for everyone and every taste and spice level. I highly recommend this restaurant especially if you have a craving at 4 a.m.

We came to this restaurant for lunch. we heard about this restaurant from a lot of people. Well, it was very successful. we were warmly welcomed by the staff members and we felt very good. The food was just great. We loved this restaurant a lot and we will visit this place again. Highly recommended.

Owl has a great variety of korean dishes that are quick to eat and really hit the spot. They lose stars for having poor customer service. We came in and there was a wait time to dine in. We were next in line to get a seat. Someone enters behind us and was given a seat before us. I had to remind them that we were waiting for a seat to get the seat. We ordered right away and patiently waited. I notice the people who sat in after us already had there food. The waitress comes over to us after 20 minutes to say that she didnt put our order in. Needless to say I was very disappointed with the service. The waitress seemed to know the people behind us so it felt like we were being ignored and were not a priority. Onnuri is easily my go to Korean restaurant because regardless of how busy they get, they just KNOW customer service. This isnt the only time either but this is the one I wanted to share.
