Pricey menu compared to other Korean bars. One of the servers did not look pleased to serve myself and my company, and actually rolled his eyes at us a couple times, however was eager to serve and was very welcoming to the other guests(who were Korean unlike us). The place gets incredibly crowded and humid and hot because I don’t think there is any air conditioning. On the upside, the side dishes(complimentary) were incredible. The music selection is good too.

In is located very conveniently from Finch station. A quick walk and voila! You are served with a variety of Korean appetizers upon arrival. The menu can be a little hard to order from but the English descriptions help a bit. I have had the pork cutlets, dumplings and dubokki(guaranteed I am spelling it wrong.). The food is delicious. Servings large enough to feed a village and priced very reasonably. Returned here with other friends on a separate occasion and they all enjoyed the food. Excellent choice if you are in the mood for Korean– and conveniently located!

first things first, If you’re not Korean or with a group of Koreans consisting of at least 2 girls, you’re not getting in. Some excuses will be they’re at capacity when the’yre clearly not. or even something ridiculous like they’re out of ice which has nothing to do with the service. However if you are able to get a table it’s a good place to relax and have a few drinks of Soju.

I’m confused! Did I just walk into a restaurant? A bar? A nightclub? A high school cafeteria? In seems to be a combination of all of the above and the result is underwhelming. I came here with a couple of Unilocalers late on a Sunday night(around 1am). The place was quite busy, it was dimly lit, the kpop and top 40 tunes were being blasted and the tables were full of young Koreans who all seemed to know each other(even our waiter was socializing with them!). We ordered a spicy chicken dish($ 15) which was basically some chicken and veggies stir-fried in a spicy red sauce. The dish was below average, the chicken was moist but cut into very small pieces and the sauce was quite spicy but didn’t have anything more in the way of flavour. The portion of the dish wasn’t overly big and in my opinion didn’t justify the hefty price tag. The waiter was pretty nice, he would check up on us occasionally and then go back to socializing with his friends/clientele. Overall I do not think I would return to In and if I did it would most likely be for a drink only. If I was a 19 year old Korean boy/girl I think I would really enjoy this place, sadly I am not 19 nor am I Korean so this place gets 2 stars. *open until 3am daily

In is probably one of the less tacky looking Korean bars I’ve seen around Finch area. I am not sure about how it is on the weekdays, but on fridays and saturdays it gets super busy starting 9’ish. I wouldn’t really recommend this place to a non-Korean though– it’s filled with Koreans in their early 20’s and if you don’t fit into that type… I swear you will feel like an odd ball out. Menu is well organized and clean unlike many other Korean bars(where it’s ripping into 300 pieces). Def a drinking/lounge spot, food is on the smaller portion side but presented nicely. I would go back to drink and hang out on the weekend :)

In? Am I in? Opens till 3 am? Young Koreans hanging out? Loud music makes me feel like I am in a club? Food choices are quite limited and on the pricey side. Spicy Chicken($ 15) with vegetables are quite spicy but is really a really stir fried dish. Services definitely lacking as we could not even find our waiter to order something else or even to get our bill. With that many restaurant options in the area, I doubt I will be back here again. Out… I am Out!
