Koo-E Nami Royale, Halifax, Nova Scotia

Koo-E Nami Royale, Halifax, Nova Scotia

Koo-E Nami Royale is a Korean restaurant located on 1535 Dresden Row, just past Cora’s.

We still do not have any snow (miracle!) so when the guys got together for D&D the ladies took the opportunity to go out for lunch. The place is spacious, warm and quite beautiful. It has a seating capacity of over 100 people. All lunch entrées at Koo-E Nami Royale are only $7.99.

I loved the long and luxurious stainless steel spoon and chopsticks, which I found easier to use than the plastic ones. In fact I would love to have some of my own!

The Food

Last time we visited a Korean restaurant I ordered the Bento Box which is similar to the Bulgogi Platter but this time I wanted seafood so I got the Seafood Stir-Fry Platter that came with octopus! That would be a first for me.

We all received lovely Korean salads to start, always so fresh and delicious. I must discover a recipe for that dressing!

We received sprouts and kimchi and wow, this kimchi really kicked! Very good though but it lived up to its overpowering reputation. Kapow! Nice…

At first I could not see a lot of seafood under all the fresh vegetables but it was there. I ordered mine to have the sweet soy sauce version which was delicious. I did add some of the table’s hot chili sauce too which made it perfect. And the octopus? Fantastic!

Alissa ordered the Bibimbap which is a stir fry topped with a sunny side-up egg. The bowl is so hot that the eggs cooks into the dish as you stir it.

Sarah got the Tofu Platter and let us try the tofu which was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Delicious!

I can not remember what Emily and Jen ordered but there was a lot of stirring involved. All of us loved our meals and I would definitely go back for more.

It was great catching up on Saturday, having a healthy and tasty lunch together and then heading off for some more adventures.

This is a wonderful restaurant and if you need a space for a party and want to do something a little different, I highly recommend Koo-E Nami Royale.

My only complaint is the washroom was too clean! Yes, you read right. If I had been in there a couple of more minutes I would have had a migraine from the industrial cleaners. For those scent-sensitive like me, you might want to send a scout before using the facilities.

Foodie Conclusion

Koo-E Nami Royale, Halifax, Nova Scotia

I loved having lunch at Koo-E Nami Royale with my friends. We did not feel cramped or rushed and the food was so varied and wonderful. The price for lunch is a fantastic deal and the dish I had was so tasty I want to come back for dinner.

I give this restaurant four and a half out of five wooden spoons.

    Sounds wonderful! There used to be a terrific Korean restaurant in Winnipeg called (for some inexplicable reason) “Tokyo Joe’s” where you would cook your own meal at the table on a grill called a Genghis Khan. I loved that place! From the outside the restaurant looked like an abandoned shack where rubbies would hang out, but inside it was heaven!

    I love the name, Toyko Joe’s, that’s awesome. They had a similar sort of cooking top on the table but I’m not sure it was called Genghis Khan, LOL. Nice!

    I had a great time at Koo-E Nami. I didn’t find the bathroom to be strong in cleaners…maybe they had just cleaned it?
    We had the dinner buffet (just under $20) and it was so worth it!
    Great place!!
