About

Daldongnae Korean BBQ delivers an authentic grilling experience defined by traditional tabletop cooking methods. Patrons engage directly with charcoal-fired grills integrated into the table, searing premium cuts of marinated beef, pork belly, and short ribs to precise levels of caramelization. The menu emphasizes a wide selection of banchan, including fermented kimchi and pickled vegetables, which serve as foundational accompaniments to the savory meats. Servers facilitate the cooking process, ensuring the textures remain tender and the flavors are fully developed through high-heat searing. The atmosphere centers on the communal nature of Korean barbecue, characterized by industrial-chic aesthetics that prioritize functionality and focused interaction with the food. Every portion is meticulously prepared to highlight the balance between spicy, sweet, and umami profiles characteristic of classic Korean culinary techniques.

Review Summary

Daldongnae Korean BBQ is widely regarded as a top-tier destination in Montreal for authentic, high-quality grilled meats and a vibrant dining atmosphere. Patrons frequently praise the exceptional variety and freshness of the unlimited side dishes, such as the popular cheese corn, egg stew, and kimchi, which complement the meat-focused menu perfectly. While the self-cooking experience is a highlight for many, it is noted that the restaurant can become quite busy, sometimes leading to a rushed service or difficulty splitting bills on weekends. Although some diners have found the music to be loud and the seating area dimly lit, the overall consensus is that the flavorful food, professional service, and immersive decor make it a must-visit spot for Korean barbecue enthusiasts.

Great service. The staff is kind, welcoming, & efficient. Great place for a night out with friends or family, but strongly recommend reserving in advance!

Thank you to Akina for working so hard 🙏

The food was good & the staff were friendly. However, despite ordering five portions of meat for three people, the side dishes & lettuce wraps felt insufficient, & we found ourselves hesitant to repeatedly ask for refills. Considering the total cost, the overall dining experience was less satisfying than we had hoped. While we appreciate the service, we are unlikely to return.

Encore meilleur que les BBQ coréen de la Corée!!! 😍❤?

Depuis que j'ai essayé ce restaurant il y a deux ans, c'est de loin mon PRÉFÉRÉ de tous!!! J'ai découvert la cuisine coréenne authentique avec ce restaurant, & cela nous a donné envie, à mon conjoint & moi, de voyager en Corée. Après avoir essayé plus d'une dizaine de BBQ coréen là-bas, nous sommes unanimes que rien ne bat le Daldongnae. 😱

Tous les autres bbq coréen essayés au Québec & aux États-Unis n'ont pas non plus battu celui-ci. La viande est excellente, les Banshans (à côtés) sont tellement tous bons & l'ambiance est vraiment authentique!!! Pareil qu'en Corée!!

Le service est courtois, rapide, efficace & l'expérience en général vaut le détour. Nous venons très régulièrement même si nous vivons à plus d'une heure de Montréal. 💯

Trop peu de viande pour le prix payé & la viande contenait trop de nerfs (difficile à manger). Les accompagnements étaient bons, mais j'étais surpris par le peu de kimchi (à peine quelques cuillerées).

Le volume de la musique était beaucoup trop fort. Il était presque impossible de parler sans élever la voix.

Le personnel est, en soi, excellent, même si, de temps à autre, il avait tendance à oublier des accompagnements.

Il y a une forte demande ; il est recommandé de réserver.

Concernant le prix, il m'est excessif. On est à près de 50$ TTC par personne.

The worst service for Daldongnae. Went to several different locations & this was the worst!!!!
Only one server working for the whole restaurant so had to remind them & still brought wrong item.
Very disappointed at this location.

Absolument délicieux! Meilleur BBQ coréen que j'ai mangé! & j'en ai essayé beaucoup. L'ambiance est aussi très sympa. Pour les kdramavores, vous aurez l'impression de manger & boire typiquement comme vos leads préférés avec tous ces'side dishes' délicieux, l'eau dans son pot & bue dans des gobelets en métal &, bien sûr, le Soju, pour les amateurs. Une belle place sympathique à ne pas manquer.
