Was Anonym at Miga a mag?
The food was excellent and definitely worth the wait. We ordered the chicken, pork cutlet, beef udon, and more, and everything was delicious. The service was good as well; our waitress gave us an ample amount of time to decide on our orders. It was surprisingly quiet during our visit, considering how great this restaurant is. I highly recommend coming here for a nice meal, whether it's for lunch or dinner. If you're... View all feedback.
What T M dislikes about Miga:
Definitely overhyped. The price isn't really justified for what you receive. It's essentially a lunch-sized Katsu bento but charged at dinner rates. It could have used more rice, too. View all feedback.

This is definitely our favorite spot for katsu! We've been here several times, and the food is consistently excellent. Parking: There is plenty of parking available, but it can get quite busy depending on the time of day.
The Beef Udon was delicious, while the takoyaki was just okay. The ambiance was quiet, clean, and cozy, with relaxing music playing in the background. The service was quick, and the staff were friendly. Overall, I would rate the food 4 out of 5.
This is one of the best Korean restaurants in Edmonton. If you enjoy Japanese-style pork cutlets, you'll definitely appreciate this spot. The food is delicious, and the service is excellent. Plus, soup, salad, and rice are refillable. Overall, I rate the food a perfect 5 out of 5!
I'm so thrilled that Miga has revamped their menu! It's refreshing to see something new and different from other Korean restaurants. I've been there a couple of times, and my favorite dishes are still the deep-fried oysters ($15) and their special udon ($20). While the prices are slightly higher than at other places, I believe the food presentation and service make it worth it. I would definitely return with friends who enjoy trying new things; Miga did an excellent job incorporating interactive elements into their dishes. We had a fantastic server named Jennifer, who was both kind and efficient—you're lucky if you get her! I will be back again; keep up the great work, Miga staff!
This was our first time trying Miga's katsu since they revamped their menu a few months ago. The breading on the katsu is wonderfully crispy and crunchy! We savored every bite and found ourselves wanting more. Food: 5/5.

Miga is the newest Korean restaurant to open in Edmonton, conveniently located in the southside, an area known for its excellent dining options. I primarily visited Miga to sample a specific dish that has caught my attention: their hot stone plate with dipping cheese. Yes, you read that right—dipping cheese! I first noticed this food trend on social media last year and knew I had to give it a try, even though I have a slight lactose intolerance. Miga also features all the classic dishes you’d expect at most Korean restaurants in the city, including bulgogi, short ribs, noodles, bibimbap, and various hot pots and stews.
I've been to Miga twice now, and I definitely intend to go back many more times. My favorite dish is the chicken and veggies, or the Topokki (rice cakes) served on a hot stone. It's a unique option that is fairly new to the Edmonton dining scene. Their bibimbap is also exceptionally delicious!
I dined at Miga last Saturday evening, driven by a craving for Korean cuisine. I found this restaurant through an Instagram post and felt eager to check it out. It’s situated in the southern part of town, where there are quite a few other Korean eateries. The food was amazing, and the portions were quite ample. The service was both prompt and welcoming. All in all, I had a wonderful experience at Miga, and I’m definitely looking forward to going back.
**Soft Clear Noodles with Beef and Vegetables (Japchae) - $18**: This dish left me a bit disappointed. I'm accustomed to Japchae having a subtle sesame oil flavor, which was missing here, making it taste rather bland. However, I did appreciate the noodles' nice, soft texture and their impressive length. **Pork Neck Bone Soup (Gamjatang) - $15**: This was a hearty bowl of soup! It came with three large bones filled with incredibly tender meat that flaked off effortlessly with just a touch of my chopsticks. The broth had a satisfying spicy kick that paired well with the savory meat. Nevertheless, much like the Japchae, it lacked some flavor; I missed the typical addition of perilla seeds and pepper on top, which usually provide a subtle kick. Moreover, while the soup was bold, the potatoes tasted rather bland. **Korean Style Barbecue Short Ribs (Galbi) - $28**: The short ribs were beautifully colored and had a rich marinade that created a delicious caramelized crust on the edges. They were definitely worth getting your hands dirty for—don’t hesitate to gnaw on the bones; you absolutely should! **Banchans**: We were served five banchans, including cubed radish kimchi, seasoned bean sprouts, fish cake, pickled cabbage, and potato salad. The potato salad truly stood out—it was a delightful mix of potatoes with macaroni and raisins, and it was fantastic. I wish I had asked for more! Overall, I was genuinely satisfied with my dining experience at Miga! The restaurant has a cozy and clean atmosphere with ample seating. The service was friendly and relaxed. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were reasonable. I would definitely return and recommend it! Plus, it's conveniently located right next to Pocha Seoul, making for some serious competition!
