Overall, Daldongnae Korean BBQ in downtown Montreal is widely praised for its high quality meats, a generous and varied set of unlimited banchan, and a lively yet comfortable atmosphere where grilling at the table is part of the experience. Guests highlight attentive, friendly service that remains helpful without being pushy, quick refills on sides, and strong flavors across the menu, with standout items like beef, pork, egg dishes, kimchi stew, and the cheese corn that often accompanies meals. While the concept of cooking your own meat is noted, the staff support helps keep the experience smooth, and many say the portions and value are solid despite some noting peak times can feel rushed, portions can vary and a few dishes can be saltier or less tender. Overall it is considered a top choice for Korean BBQ in Montreal, a staple for groups and a consistent favorite that brings repeat visits.
Excellent experience at this place as first time visitor in Montreal. Food is fresh & good quality, side dishes are also tasty. Their korean bbq, soup cold noodles & mixed one are both very good compared to Vancouver & Toronto. It's fun if you go as group. Highly recommend!
Korean food at its best ! A unique experience of live meat cooking as u indulge in the delicacies of the Korean cuisine. Staff is super friendly & menu is straight forward. The food is to be complemented with Magkoeli drinks! Highly recommended !
Awesome KBBQ if you're walking around downtown & want to grab a tasty meal. Grill heats up fast & the sides are delicious (& are replenished for free!)
I recommend anyone planning on going to Daldongnae to pick up the phone & make a reservation, as it is quite a popular place. I go there a few times a year & it has always been great. The good is great, I love all of the free side dishes that come with the meat selection. I also really like the Korean cold noodles & kim fried rice that you can get in their menu. The staff is very nice & very quick when you ask for a refill for anything really (water, lettuce, eggs, corn cheese, kimchi, other side dishes). I love that place!

Went for dinner with work friends. So much fun. Amazing food. Meat was top quality. Plenty of options & refills is sides. Great service. Place was a bit dark & hot over the grill. Would recommend for small groups 3-4 or couples.
This is the most authentic Korean BBQ spot you'll find! The beef tartare, seafood pancake, kimchi jjigae, & grilled BBQ were all exceptional. Kevin provided fantastic service, making our experience even better. The boneless beef ribs are a must-try-so delicious we came back twice. Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine Korean cuisine!
Delicious! The boneless beef short rib was tender, juicy, simple but delicious. Beef tartare, seafood pancake, & ribeye were all really good. I'm not a big fan of kimchi but really enjoyed the kimchi jjigae & the BBQed kimchi banchan from the tray. Overall, a great meal that was so good, we ate here twice!
The most authentic Korean BBQ. The beef tartare, seafood pancake, kimchi jigae, & grilled BBQ were all spot on. Kevin did a fantastic job. Boneless beef ribs all day everyday!!! So good came back twice.

We went to Daldongnea on Bishop before a show at the Monastère. We were 5 so they gave us 2 tables, our friends at the other table ordered a vegan set & a beef. Our table of 3 ordered 3 different types of beef, & it came with the complimentary dishes as indicated on the menu. The side dishes were all good, but we particularly loved the glass noodles. The beef was not as tender as we were hoping in comparison to our experience in Seoul. The staff was nice & attentive as they checked in us regularly throughout dinner. The food was ok but with the Soju, the bill went us pretty quickly. We ordere a Soju melona cocktail & a pitche
Definitely a good kbbq place! I'm used to California/LA/Korea KBBQ places so I would say this place is a bit more expensive & limited than those. You have to order two meats in total for two people & I prefer a wide variety for unlimited kbbq. I also wish they gave you rice for free & more lettuce, they really do not give you enough lettuce at all. But considering I live in Vermont, this is the best place around!
This is a such wonderful place for authentic Korean BBQ. The price is reasonable, & meat is juicy & tender. The cheesy corn is the greatest: the sweetness & the saltiness.
