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.
I went there for dinner with my family. We went for Korean barbecue. Everything was delicious & the atmosphere & service were great too. We had no reservation & it took a few minutes until we were seated, but it was totally worth it! Once we were seated the food & drinks came fast. Everything was very fresh & tasty. It's definitely a place to come back in Montreal.

Daldongnae is one of my favorite Korean restaurants in Montreal!Despite everyone seeming busy, the staff were incredibly friendly. The meat was absolutely delicious - one of the best I've had in a long time. Highly recommend for both the food & the warm atmosphere!
Food was simply excellent. Great service & lovely restaurant. Although you're obliged to buy one portion of meat per customer (didn't know before entering), the side dishes are free until you finished your meat. The staff were super friendly & the side dishes were simply excellent (the meat is fresh & you prepare it yourself). Best Korean BBQ in town, 100% recommend
Very small portions of meats compared to the price. When the server served our porks that we ordered, at first we all thought it was for one person, but then they told me it's for 3 people lol. I went long times ago & recently visited with my friends. But still I disappointed a lot. I decide to stop going to this place!
This Korean BBQ seemed messy to get into as there was a long waiting list & our names got messed up... so they sat us at a table but then asked us to leave the table because someone else was before us... not professional. The food was all right, but I would say the predominantly missing item was seasoning... none provided so the barbecued meats tasted rather bland. The staff were kind, & once you get seated, things were moving relatively smoothly. The pricing was not bad, but on the high end whereas the quality was not best. I will give this place another shot & revise this review based upon that experience hoping improvements will have been implemented by then. Cheers!
Love love love this place but it's sad it's closed for renovations 😅I walked all the way there even tho it's raining today. Please indicate « Closed » on the map to save us our time. Thank you.

I love kdrama & I felt like I was in one! Eating with friends & drinking soju!! Really enjoyed it! ☺️☺️ Follow the recommended recipe for the porc belly 😋😋
The first time I came I spent my birthday here! Overall it was amazing, we had a reservation but still had to wait a bit too long. The service is great! Since I first wrote the review we've been there at least 10 more times & we don't wait for a table anymore, maybe it was just very busy day that one time. Now this is by far our favorite restaurant in Montreal & we'll continue to go often.
The best Korean bbq I've ever tried. The meat was super tender, fresh & juicy. The sides are delicious & the service was very fast. Worth the wait since there is no reservations ahead.
