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.

There's a mandatori service fee of 15% after six people party. But there's no additional service. There's a Robot bringing the meal to the table ; & you're not allowed to leave the empty dishes on it.

We had to ask every time to a server to take them out.

The fountain soda hasn't refill.
They don't even gave water to each one of us.

They charged my group a mandatory 15% service fee AFTER tax, because we were a large group. However we got separated into 5 different tables & the robot served us literally the entire time. I'm not sure if this is even legal to charge the tip after tax. I hope it wasn't on purpose but i think the same girl charged all of us one by one so that would add up to a lot of extra money spent/earned & i don't believe it's ethical. They did tell us about the service fee in advance so I'm not complaining about that part, just the fact that we were barely even served. Just once at the beginning to seat us & explain things.
Aside from that, service was good though, as in, the waiter greeted us & was happy to explain what drinks there were. After giving the drink, he left & didn't give us water so we just asked the kitchen if we could take a pitcher of water. I tried to get his attention a few times but I'm not sure if he was looking in our direction. Not sure if it's normal.

Food was good as well but it's a bit overpriced. I understand because it's near downtown though. The pitcher of alcohol was really worth it & it tasted good.

Overrated to be honest they are better all-you-can-eat places that are cheaper as well. 50 plus $ for all-you-can-eat sushi that wasn't all of that is crazy 🫩. Also, the scenery is meh, & the chairs are so far from the table. I will never go back to be honest save your money. I love the cute server kitty robot 🐱. All jokes aside I don't recommend, save your money. In this economy with mid-quality sushi & not a lot of variety for an all-you-can-eat sushi it's a no for me.

Food was very average. I ordered shrimp tempura rolls & the shell was still on the shrimps.
They have no ice cream for dessert either when places like this usually do.

Nothing to say about the service, staff was nice & taking away dishes as soon as they were empty

Deliceux repas en format illimité. Choix de viandes & légumes à faire cuire soi-même au centre de la table. Aussi sushis à volonté. Le service par des serveurs & robots ce qui est funny.
