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.

WE WERE A GROUP OF 7 & THEY AUTOMATICALLY ADDED A 15% TIP & 15% TAX TO THE BILL. THAT WOULD BE FINE IF THE SERVICE MATCHED IT - BUT IT ABSOLUTELY DID NOT.

THE SERVICE WAS EXTREMELY SLOW. AFTER ORDERING, WE WAITED AROUND 20 MINUTES JUST FOR SOMEONE TO COME BACK TO OUR TABLE. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT.

WE WERE GIVEN A 2-HOUR LIMIT, WHICH AGAIN WOULD BE UNDERSTANDABLE - BUT WHEN THERE WERE ABOUT 20 MINUTES LEFT, MY FRIEND ORDERED SUSHI & IT NEVER ARRIVED. NO EXPLANATION. NO APOLOGY. NOTHING.

IF YOU'RE GOING TO CHARGE A 30% AUTOMATIC GRATUITY, THE SERVICE SHOULD BE EXCELLENT. THIS WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE.

VERY DISAPPOINTING EXPERIENCE. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE FOR GROUP DINNERS.

I've been to Kalbi many times in the past & loved my experience every time.
Yesterday, I went back for the first time in a while & we noticed a few changes, mainly in the menu. I was very disappointed to see that they charge you extra for a few pieces of lettuce & ice cream?? I feel like those are things that should always be included… Saddest part is that we ordered Mango jelly & caramel flan just to find out that they were out of them so we didn't even get any good desserts. Not sure if it's really a big deal, but we made a reservation for 8pm & had to wait over 20 mins before getting a table (we were there on time & a lot of people were also waiting in line)

Female staff member did not wash her hands after using the washroom. That was it for us - we immediately left disgusted.

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.

Très bon, mais un peut cher. Il faut avoir un grand appétit pour rentabiliser…
