Sota BBQ Coréen is hailed by many as one of Montreal's best all you can eat KBBQ, delivering tasty beef and other meats, solid sushi options, and a dessert line including ice cream that earned frequent praise, with some visits featuring fast service and a lively, well ventilated dining room. Experiences vary widely, though, with reports of long waits during busy times, last call rushes that force large upfront orders, incomplete or delayed dishes, and occasional billing issues such as added gratuities or hidden surcharges. Language and service consistency also come up, from attentive, friendly staff to comments about uneven attention, limited French or English, and inconsistent timing between courses and grills. Overall, it remains a popular spot for groups and celebrations, especially for fans of AYCE with a mix of Korean barbecue and sushi, but several reviews caution that the value and quality can depend on the visit, timing and how smoothly the service runs on that day.View restaurant profile
