" I had previously heard about Kimski but never had the chance to visit until recently. I was a bit disappointed by the execution of some dishes — one being the kimchi fried rice, which lacked flavor and texture. However, the bar next door was inviting, and I enjoyed mixing that in with my meal. I felt the energy in the restaurant but I hope they can build on this concept even more for a better experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was recently at Kimski and was blown away by how delicious everything was! The combination of flavors between Polish and Korean dishes is so well-executed. I especially loved the bibimbap; the spice and freshness were just right! The vibe was lively, adding to the fun experience. I highly recommend visiting! " (*Curated Review*)

" Upon hearing the hype, I finally decided to check out Kimski. You can imagine my excitement for innovative fare! While I found some dishes like the dumplings and Korean fries quite enjoyable, others didn’t quite hit home (like the fried chicken). The vibe was welcoming, but I was hoping the service would be a bit faster. Overall, I'd give it another chance to really dive into their unique fusion. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Kimski last weekend with friends and loved the Korean-style poutine fries. They were definitely a twist I didn’t see coming! The drinks available from the adjacent bar, Maria’s, were wonderful too. The restaurant was bustling, which added to the fun. However, the wait for the food took a bit longer than expected, which was the only downside. Overall, a great spot that I highly recommend for casual outings! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food experience at Kimski is delightful! I had the fantastic opportunity to taste their bibimbap bowl, packed with flavors and surprise ingredients. It was a true culinary experience where I got a really great taste of both cuisines. The ambiance is casual and fun, perfect for weekends. I am planning to return soon to try their special offerings!

" While the fusion concept was intriguing, my experience at Kimski left me wanting more. The dishes didn't live up to their potential, which was a bit disappointing. However, the venue was lively and the service staff was friendly and helpful. I hope this was just an off day, as I've heard good things. Perhaps next time I will try something different from the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Kimski does a remarkable job of bringing together the best of both Polish and Korean cuisines. The unique creative dishes stand out as impressive, especially the fried rice cakes. The cozy atmosphere provides the perfect backdrop for a good time with friends. I enjoyed my meal and really look forward to trying new options there soon. " (*Curated Review*)
