About

Kalbi BBQ specializes in authentic Korean tabletop grilling where diners sear marinated meats and fresh vegetables directly at their tables. The menu features classic bulgogi and short ribs alongside an expansive selection of freshly prepared sushi rolls and nigiri. Side dishes known as banchan accompany the grilled proteins, providing a diverse range of traditional fermented flavors and textures. The interior layout emphasizes social interaction through integrated grills, facilitating a highly interactive cooking process for groups. Professional staff provide necessary guidance on grilling techniques to ensure optimal flavor development for each cut of meat. This establishment combines the intensity of high-heat Korean barbecue with the precise artistry of Japanese raw fish preparations. Patrons find a comprehensive menu that bridges two distinct culinary traditions within a single, functional space designed for efficient and communal preparation.

Review Summary

Kalbi BBQ offers an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ and sushi experience that is widely enjoyed for its fun atmosphere, lively music, and unique robot servers. Most guests appreciate the variety of fresh meats, marinades, and well-prepared sushi, noting that the service is often remarkably quick and the staff is friendly and accommodating. While many patrons find the meal to be a great value for the variety provided, some diners feel the price is high, particularly when noting additional charges for certain items like lettuce or desserts and the automatic gratuity policy. Experiences regarding comfort vary, with some mentioning the space can be noisy, warm, or occasionally chilly depending on seating, but the general consensus highlights the restaurant as a memorable spot for groups, celebrations, and casual outings.

Fair value, good quality BBQ, didnt try the rest. Ginger portion is tiny, soups are just ok. Selection could be better, but I assume its likely typical for Korean BBQ. I would come back.

First time at a Korean BBQ place. Food was delicious. Got right in around 1:30 pm without a reservation. You order via a QR code & a cute kitty robot brings it to you! Loved everything but the loud rap. It was unfortunately not censored so you might not want to bring children here. There is a large, steep flight of steps to enter the restaurant, so be aware of that. Not a problem for us. Not sure if they have an elevator. Pricing was good, $34 per person for all you can eat with a 2 hour table time.

We went on a Saturday night. It was $44 per adult & $29 per kid.
Unfortunately, many items were unavailable or required an extra charge, especially in the dessert section. That said, the food overall was unimpressive for the price.
The experience is quite basic, good for those who are new to Korean BBQ & don't know too well. For a similar price, places like Gyubee are way better in terms of quality & variety.
Reservation is required if you don't have to wait over an hour. They charge 15% for groups of 5 people & more.

It was our first time trying this BBQ place, & my friends & I were really disappointed ☹?. There were six of us, & there was NO service. We arrived at around 4pm, the restaurant was NOT busy at that time.

No water was served after we were seated; our friend had to go to the counter to ask for it. The food-delivery machine would stop & drop off food, & we had to carry it, choose our own plates, & put the empty dishes back ourselves. The sauce bottle on our table was also empty.

We considered leaving a smaller tip since we didn't receive any service, but a staff member told us that a 15% tip was mandatory & would automatically be added to the bill because we were a party of six. I mean… okay 🙄.

This is the first place I've ever been to where you have to pay extra for lettuce at a $40+ Korean BBQ buffet. It makes no sense. Ice cream also costs extra. Unacceptable.

I would NEVER step into this place a second time.

Went to Montreal for Thanksgiving this year. My wife is South Korean so we were looking forward to this. Not traditional BBQ. Food was ok, need to advertise as a fusion & not authentic to let people know.

Keep up the great service! Fastest service I have ever received at a Korean BBQ place in Montreal. Mango jello dessert portion is good after having eaten tons of meat. I left this restaurant extremely full with an expanded stomach.

note: Price is $40-$50 incl tip & tax
