I had this saved in places I wanted to go I think for the all you can eat but I didn’t think I could eat my moneys worth today so just ordered off the menu. The food tasted delish! For my gamjatang they gave me an extra bowl to put all my bones in it! Lots of meat in the soup I was super full when I was done and that’s impressive cuz I am a big eater!!! The soup comes with a bowl of rice. The service was great the staff is super friendly! And you get a free little chocolate at the end of your meal. I would come again. Seating is very limited as they have a small space but I was lucky to have gotten the last table available during lunch!
After Seth Rogan made internet news for visiting this place, I thought I'd check it out. Expected it would be good and it simply blew expectations. Very tasty food, worth the visit 100%. Had the all you can eat Pork Belly meal and will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.
Where has this food been all my life! Korean fusion.. oh my, everything was SOOO good!!
We had Spicy Seafood Bibimbap.. oh.. the flavour.. I was in heaven! (I dove in and forgot to take a pic so the pic is when it was half finished.. sorry!)
And Rosé Topokki with added Mozzarella. The creamy sauce, with melted cheese on it. Korean fusion at its best!
I just had this the other day, and there are tons of restaurants I want to try on Denman but.. I can't wait to go back to Damso!

This place is legendarily good. I’m not even a huge meat eater but the all you can eat pork belly set menu is such a treat and great for sharing with a small group. Everything is perfectly done and the servers are very on it. I love bringing people from out of town here to show off Vancouver’s culinary scene!
The food is Fantastic, the atmosphere really sucks , you have to cramp yourself In a super small table for 2
Not able to enjoy the food , you request a bigger table and owner/ Manager/Server totally rude and not allowed unless is more people on your party
Make you feel he’s making you a favour to have his food , don’t even dare to ask for ice for your drinks or hot sauce
But 15% tips already charged to your bill 😳
Restaurants need to remember COVID season when they beg for customers to order to survive
So if you want to go and enjoy the food as T-Rex 🦖 with small hands then this is you place
I have attached the meal picture for all to see is not space for more food or just to really enjoy 100 dollars dinner

I liked the pork belly all you can eat. Taste was good.
However, wasn't a big fan of the rules and policies: can't enter until everyone is there and the 1 hour limit on all you can eat. (Ok on the 1 hour limit but it should start when the food arrives, not when you order.)

Went during dinner time around the weekend at 6pm and was able to get seated. I got to try their toppoki, rose toppiki and their spicy pork bulgogi.
Despite the name suggests, the spicy pork bulgogi just has the right amount of kick that enhances the taste. Given the price, the meat to rice portion is actually more compared to other Korean places that serves little rice pots like this.
The regular toppoki is standard nothing too special about it and is spicy (as usual). The rose toppoki on the other hand has the same ingredients as the regular toppoki, just added with sausages and mushrooms, but the sauce used is different. It's milder and not spicy as far as I recall. So, if you crave for toppoki but prefer creamier and milder option, then rose toppoki is recommended.

Damso has been our goto place for hearty Korean dinner that never fails for many many years! Our all time favourites are beef soy bean paste soup, and grilled pork belly! But honestly all of their food is pretty darn solid! Their deep fried chickens are super crispy and I really liked their tacos with Korean twist! Can't wait to go back again 🤤🤤🤤
