Gyubee is the only all-you-can-eat Japanese barbecue restaurant that provides quality and fresh ingredients, all with our goal to remind each other to unwind and savour the flavours and aromas of good food with our friends and family.
Gyubee Japanese Grill offers an all you can eat Japanese BBQ experience with a wide and often outstanding selection of meats that are fresh, well marinated and quickly grilled at the table. Reviewers praise the quality and tenderness of the beef and other meats, the satisfying sides, bibimbap option, and the fast, attentive service that keeps drinks refilled and orders coming on busy nights. The atmosphere is described as clean, vibrant, and sometimes a bit loud when crowded, with some notes about a robot delivering food and a modern ordering setup via QR codes. A common caveat is the popularity which leads to long wait times and the need to join a waitlist or plan ahead since reservations may be limited, and there is typically a time limit per table. Some comments mention language barriers, occasional inconsistencies in service or in meat seasoning, and dessert quality, but overall value, variety, and the all you can eat format keep many guests returning.
Really enjoyable dining experience overall. Gyubee in Montreal is a great spot if you're looking for a fun, interactive meal with high-quality ingredients. The all-you-can-eat concept is well executed, & there's a solid variety of meats, sides, & appetizers to choose from.
The quality of the meat stands out, especially the marinated options which are flavorful & tender. Grilling everything at your table adds to the experience & makes it feel more engaging than a typical restaurant outing. It's a great place to go with friends or in a group.
Service was generally good, with staff being attentive & quick to bring out orders, although it can slow down a bit during busy times. The restaurant itself has a lively atmosphere, but it can get quite noisy & a bit crowded.
Overall, a very solid spot for Japanese BBQ in Montreal. Great food & a fun experience, just be prepared for a busy environment.
It was my first Japanese BBQ experience. I realized that this type of food is not for me, but objectively this place is great. Good selection of meats, tasty marinade, & delicious side dishes. I want to especially highlight the service. IT'S GREAT. I was surprised to see this quality of costumer service in Canada.

I visited here many time but my last time was not good because I noticed they changed the meat grade such as prime kalbi (it should not be called prime anymore) & the pork belly thin kind is like the meat the were left from the process. If your ingredient is more expensive, you should degrade something else, not the quality of your food.
Very pricey per person, but the quality of the meat somewhat makes up for it. The ordering system was kinda odd though - I wish there was an ipad or paper & pencil we could order on rather than having to say each item to our server. I also wish there was a better divider between tables so there's more privacy. The queue does get veeeerrryyyy busy during dinner time so just something to keep in mind.
Huge shoutout to our server, Andrew, who was extremely patient with us & was very attentive. He came back frequently to check in if there's anything we needed. Man was very chill heh
Best bbq in montreal, amazing protein choice, fresh & well seasoned. Sides are so good as well. Always love to pair my meat with the bibimbap. Highly recommend the miso steak & the thin slices. Best bbq. Always return there. Creme brulée & ice cream to finish the meal is so satisfying
Everything was outstanding from start to finish. The quality of the meat was exceptional - beautifully marbled, fresh, & perfectly cut. Grilling it at the table was fun, & each bite was juicy, tender, & full of flavor. The dipping sauces complemented the beef beautifully without overpowering it.
My friend suggested this place, & I was expecting Japanese BBQ, but it turned out to be more of a Korean BBQ. The quality of the meat was hit or miss-some cuts looked great, while others had way too much fat compared to meat. The non-meat menu options were just okay.
The service was fine overall, though there were a few language barrier moments. The ambiance was nice. I do wish they had sushi options like some of their other branches. That said, my friends & I still had a nice time overall.
I've dined at many restaurants in Montreal over the years, but this was one of the most disappointing experiences I've had. The service was noticeably unprofessional - staff were busy chatting with each other & openly watching customers instead of paying attention to their tables. We were left waiting far too long.
The food quality & hygiene were especially concerning. The meat tasted off & had an unpleasant smell, & shortly after the meal I experienced stomach issues & diarrhea. This is not something I've experienced elsewhere, & it raised serious concerns about food handling & preparation.
As a diner, I expect basic standards of service & food safety. Unfortunately, this restaurant failed on both. I won't be returning & would not recommend it.

Love the food & environment! Enjoyed my meal & service. My server Lina offered to cut the meat for me since I was having a hard time & frequently changed our grill. Much appreciated!!
I was able to enjoy a wide variety of meats at a reasonable price, without any restrictions. The atmosphere was also very classy & clean.
Since it's all you can eat, you just scan the QR code with your phone & then you can order as much as you want & enjoy everything freely!
Service is excellent & the food is amazing. My group mainly ordered marinated meat & we enjoyed it a lot. Our waitress Lina was very welcoming, friendly & proactive to help change the grill pans & to check up on us between our orders. Will definitely come back more often!
Great japanese all you can eat bbq place with a great selection of different meats, vegetables & fish. Just wish they had a better reservation system. As it is right now, you have to do a virtual lineup through google map & its pretty much a coin flip if you get to eat before 9 whenever its busy there.
