Best all you can eat Korean BBQ, their marinated meats really make a world of difference & the staff was very attentive to our needs. I will definitely be returning.
I recently dined (with my hubby) at KUI Korean BBQ in Verdun & had a great experience! Our server, Ricky, was exceptionally friendly & made us feel right at home. The all-you-can-eat concept is fantastic, but keep in mind there's a fee for any uneaten food, which is a responsible approach to minimize waste. The highlight of our meal was definitely the meats; the ribeye & chadol (beef brisket) were absolutely tender & flavorful. The prepared appetizers, including takoyaki, fried fish, & fried chicken, were also delicious. I loved the flexibility of ordering exactly what we wanted & in whatever quantities we desired, without the constraints of preset menus. Despite us being really full at the end of our meal, we still managed to order some popsicles (made in Korea!). I recommend the green matcha & red bean one! Being a BYOB establishment made the night even more affordable, & since we visited on a quieter Wednesday, it was a relaxed atmosphere. Ricky informed us that weekends can get quite busy, so reservations are a must! This place is perfect for groups, offering a set price for a fun & interactive dining experience. Just a tip: wear something you don't mind smelling a bit like BBQ, as the ventilation system is a bit old-fashioned & pulls air from the top. Overall, KUI Korean BBQ is a must-visit for anyone craving delicious Korean BBQ in a welcoming environment. We can't wait to return with friends.
Every single time I eat there, it gets better & better. The owner is a sweetheart, the quality of the food is always fresh, it's a bring your own wine... don't ask if you should go there, just go & enjoy yourself.
The atmosphere & the staff including the owner are very kind & nice. The food & the quality of the meat were high quality & the experience was amazing !
The owner of the shop was really nice. It was our first time in Korean bbq & he helped us with cooking the food & explained to us what to eat with what & gave us insight on the meals from South Korea. The food was really good. The meat was so tender & the service was incredible! This is a must go.
Le service est excellent & rapide . Les viandes sont de bonnes qualités , tendres & savoureuses . Le décor & le concept est unique ...... je vous recommande ce petit resto koréen ....un délice....
The meat selection is nice. We liked everything we tried. The service is very good for the full house they have. The atmosphere is lively but the decor is basic & practical.
