The food here is excellent. I lived for a year in Korea and this reminds me so much of my time there. This is the best that you can get in town and rivals some of the places I've tried in the GTA. The staff is very friendly and the service was quick. Sure the decor isn't anything to write home about, but that's not why you're come here, unless of course, you've been to Korea and want to feel like you're back there. All it's missing is the little doorbell buttons on the tables to call for service! If you want authentic Korean food, this place will not disappoint.

Slow service during the weekend. Lunch menu was only for the weekday not for the week ends. Food was not really good had a bad stomach pain after eating. The ramen taste like they just got instant noodles and added hot water. My seafood soup had 1 shrimp. Would not recommend or go back here again.

Still good as 10 years ago. I used to live in S. Korea. The taste of the foods is closed to the foods from there. The place is clean and the server is friendly. The place is not cheap; but it's worthwhile.

Authentic Korean cuisine served hot and fresh! An absolutely fantastic experience. I had the Bibimbap with beef and it was everything I wanted.Would have included a pic of the bibimbap but I could not help myself.10/10 would recommend if you're looking for some delicious spicy food. Will be dining again!!

Pretty good! I got the dolsot bibimbap with beef while my friend got the kamjatang. For my bibimbap, the rice in the stone bowl was a little bit dry and potentially stale, but all of the other ingredients seemed fresh. The side dishes were great too! We got another round of the braised potato side dishes (gamja jorim) that are to die for. My friend’s kamjatang was a little hard to eat as there are quite a few bones with not much meat, so keep that in mind if you order it!

A few days ago I was craving some Korean food, because I had just finished my exams. I decided to treat myself by going to The Famous OWL of Minerva! The food here is amazing and definitely a must-go if you’re ever in the mood for some authentic Korean food. I ended up ordering some Kimchi Fried Rice - stir fried kimchi with rice, assorted veggies topped off with a perfect sunny-side-up egg ~ and DalkChulPan - spicy stir-fried chicken severed on a sizzling hot plate. The ambience of the restaurant itself was quite homely making the food even more enjoyable! All in all this is one of my go-to comfort food restaurants. Check it out!To hear about this review, follow us @eatinontario on Instagram and Facebook.

Ordered tofu soup and my friend ordered pork bone soup. By far the best place to go for Korean food in the KW area. The service is good and the food comes out pretty fast.

Ordered from Owl of Minerva Waterloo tonight. Quick, and tasty. Decent sized portions - generous but not huge, and not expensive.The mild" dishes were just as spicy as the "spicy" dishes

First time trying Korean food. Really impressed by the richness of flavour in every dish that I tried. Service was really good too.

I always go for their Soon Tubu - pork. There has been a change of owner not long ago maybe 1-2 months since the end of 2017? There’s been mixed review of whether the quality of food has dropped. I think it (their soon tubu jigae) has dropped, but not significant. If you have yet been here, try it out. It’s a franchise with some restaurant located in GTA area.
