Alirang - Hamilton

I have eaten at a lot of restaurants in Hamilton/Toronto, and I have to say this is my favourite one! I always come back to it. Being Korean myself I love having a sense of home in every bite I take. The rice is perfectly sticky, and the food is very authentic. This is by far the best Korean restaurant in all of Hamilton or even Toronto. I live all the way in Toronto and I sometimes happen to be in the area to grab a bite. Even when I'm at home and craving some good Korean food, I make the trip all the way to hamilton. The restaurant is familly owned and the owner/familly are very welcoming. The restaurant is in a very convenient area. Downtown Hamilton is only a 5 min. walk from the restaurant. Perfect restaurant for famillies that want a taste of authentic Korean food.

Yummy soup and great service!. I ordered gamjatang(pork bone soup), there was alot of meat and the soup was flavourful. For the service, the owner was very nice and paid attention to us, so service was great. Overall if your craving some korean food this is the place.

The soups and the beef ribs are the better dishes there. The serving staff are friendly and the value of the food is good.

Rice was perfect, everything else was also wonderful!. I went to this place with my daughter and a friend. My friend had a stone bowl with rice name sounded like bipibu or something similar) on the bottom, vegetables, tofu she is a vegetarian) and a fried egg on the top. She was told by the waiter to cut the egg into the dish and mix it up. She reported the meal was delicious. My daughter and i ordered beef dishes hers was in a stone bowl in a soup with vegetable and mine was fried with onions and mushrooms) the flavour was sweet and a little spicy. I loved it and have craved it since. The rice was kind of a sticky type that was the best rice i had ever tasted. It tasted just as good the next day. there was so much on each dish we all had leftovers the next day. we also ordered spring rolls to star- absolutely lovely with a sweet sauce on top and fried bananas to finish meal. If I were to have anything to say to improve the meal it would be a caramel sauce should be served with the bananas. they were very good alone but could be better with sauce. I will be back again for sure.

Lunch. 4 of us went for lunch feb 20th and really enjoyed it, food was hot fresh and very tastey.. Portions were really big and service friendly. Will def go again A plus from us!!
