I've heard a lot of people tell me the wait times are crazy long but when we came at around 6pm, we only had to wait 20 minutes before being seated. They cook the food for you so you don't have to worry about overcooking/undercooking as well, which is great.

When we were seated, there were a bunch of side plates already at our table. The sides portion is pretty big, bigger than what you typically see at Korean restaurants. For a second, I thought we sat at the wrong table.

The meats, drinks, and sides are tasty and I have no complaints. Great service as well. When we left at around 8, there were lots of people outside waiting though so I'm assuming we just beat the rush. If you don't want to wait for a long time, definitely try and come before 6:30pm.

I needed to come back here a second time before writing this review because I'm at a loss for words. EVERYTHING about Zoomak exceeds all expectations I had. The atmosphere, the waiters, the vibes, the food, the drinks... 11/10.

If you only had to get one item on the menu, I say go for the bossam. I guarantee you will be satisfied off just that. Honestly, if I had to only eat one thing for the rest of my life, this would be it. The crunchy exterior and melt in your mouth interior almost made me fall off my chair because I was at a loss for words.

Of course, besides that item, they also do the other dishes extremely well. Will be back to try the rest of the menu soon (yes, I am in fact slowly making my way through their entire menu).

I guess if I had one gripe, it would be having to wait quite a long time if you don't make reservations in advance. And even if you make the reservation, the time slots seems to be quite limited as they book up fast (and for good reason).

Anyway, go check this place out if you're in the Gastown area, I guarantee you won't be disappointed.
