Kalbi BBQ Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
KoreanBBQSushiAsianAll You Can Eat MenuBuffet
Kalbi Korean BBQ, grill and sushi all you can eat - Our concept its Paper grilling - the newest invention in Korean BBQ. Korean paper BBQ: Paper BBQ is an innovation in South Korean cuisine. The grill is covered with a special paper, absorbing the excess oil produced by the meat without losing its flavor and nutritional value. Hence, the food keeps its moisture and spices. The paper sheet is disposable, that helps to retain excess fat and cleanliness of the grill. This is a Elegant and comfortable decorate restaurant, and the dim light effect which makes the environment relaxing and perfect for a date, friends, group party (2 private rooms for 20 and 30 people) and families! Also we have the ventilation system for each table that exhausts the smoke from the grill, very enjoyable.

Review Summary

Reviewers describe Kalbi BBQ as a lively all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ in Montreal with a strong appeal for meat lovers and groups, thanks to the table grills, broad menu, and playful robot servers, and many praise the friendly service and vibrant atmosphere. The concept of ordering by phone and the overall value when fully utilized are frequent positives, with many noting the quality and variety of meats, sushi options, and other sides. However, several comments point to higher prices for certain items and the fact that some staples like lettuce, desserts, and some sides are not included in the all-you-can-eat, along with occasional menu changes and shortages. A number of reviews mention long waits on weekends or during peak hours and mention that the space can feel loud or smoky, with ventilation sometimes criticized. Some guests feel the experience leans toward fusion rather than authentic Korean BBQ and advise reservations to avoid lines, while many still say they would return for the fun, tasty food, and the sense of novelty the concept provides.

I have done many many Korean bbq places but I have never had to have a parchment paper on the grill. Not only do you have to change the paper after each round (such a waste of paper) but also due to the paper your meat basically boils. This just removes the bbq idea & flavour. If I want boiled beef slices I will do it at home & not pay 40$+ per person.

Furthermore, make sure that you don't wear nice clothing, the smell will stay for a long time in your clothes. Their exhaust does not cover the entirety so smells, steam & or smoke easily goes around

It was one of the coolest experience I had. The restaurant's decor is lovely. I came with my son & we both enjoyed it very much, we will definitely be coming back. Thanks to our servers Karen & Matt, the service was always quick.

I don't really tend to take time & give reviews, but i recommend you should visit this place. You get to taste various dishes that have been made with passion. Good food & it arrives fast at the table. Excellent service from HyoRi :)

Bar atmosphere restaurant, loud music & dim lighting to cook your own meat/food. Servers are very tentative to clearing empty dishes from the fridge able

Restaurant très intéressant à aller visiter! Le concept de faire cuire sa propre viande avec la plaque au centre de la table est super. La commande se fait à partir d'appareils électroniques. Plusieurs choix disponibles & pour le goût, c'était super aussi. Pour le prix, c'est un peu dispendieux pour deux personnes c'était proche de 120$ mais nous avions mangé à notre faim ! Je vais y retourner bientôt, c'est certain! C'était plaisant de se faire servir nos plats par des robots. Des fois des robots, des fois des serveurs.

Really fun place to come with friends, I came on a Saturday & with no reservation took only 30 mins to get a seat. I recommend coming earlier since parking is hard to find with this construction! Kelly is so sweet gave us the best service!

William était au top, savait anticiper nos attentes.
Excellent produit sauf la disponibilité hors viande (nous mangeons halal)ce qui réduit la liste a commandé,délai d'attente correct, à peine quelques minutes.
La glace était payante,dommage , chez kanda , c'était gratuit donc on finit sur une déception.
C'était une excellente expérience !

Great place. It's not the best korean bbq you can find in Montréal, but ranks very high as far as all you can eat go

La nourriture était bonne, les viandes étaient bien assaisonnées, les sushis manquaient un peu de saveur & la présentation pourrait être améliorée, mais nous étions satisfaits.

La qualité de viande es catastrophique & les steak transparent c'est nul honnêtement

J'y suis allée plusieurs fois & c'est toujours une belle ambiance. J'aime le fait qu'on puisse commander avec notre téléphone directement. Ce serait bien que l'on puisse être plus que deux téléphones par table pour commander. Aussi, j'ai toujours aimé le format All you can eat, par contre, il y a quelques items qui ne devraient pas être en surplus selon moi, comme la laitue ou la crème glacée (qui était incluse avant). Quand même une super expérience & un endroit où j'aime retourner!
