The interior layout prioritizes communal seating arrangements that accommodate groups around central integrated charcoal or gas grills.

Mon Ami Korean BBQ receives a mix of feedback, with many patrons praising the flavorful, well-marinated food and the variety offered by both the all-you-can-eat and à la carte menus. The atmosphere is frequently described as cozy, chill, and welcoming, making it a popular choice for groups and social outings. While many visitors highlight the friendly, hardworking, and attentive nature of the servers, a recurring point of contention is inconsistent service due to understaffing, particularly during peak hours, which can lead to long wait times and issues with order fulfillment. Although some guests expressed disappointment regarding food quality consistency and a lack of clear attention to dietary restrictions, many others remain highly satisfied with the overall value, often recommending the lunch specials and specific dishes like the fried chicken.
Great place for All-U-Can-Eat Korean BBQ. The restaurant is nicely decorated & spacious. The tables are spread out so you are not too close to other tables. Each table has an adjustable hood which is amazing because you don't leave the restaurant smelling like BBQ. The food selection is quite large. It's not 100% authentic but it's pretty good. They have lettuce to wrap, ssamjang & garlic to add flavour. The meat was fresh & tender. All the food was amazing, except for the haemul pajeon (Korean seafood pancake). It was thick & soft, not crispy at all. It was very doughey. & they didn't have a dipping sauce for it. Our waiter Rayan was very friendly & helpful. The price is very reasonable. We had a great time. Will surely come back.
Some of the best korean BBQ I've had in the city. The food was very well marinate & extremely flavorful. The sides were plentiful & also delicious. I highly recommend the lunch spécial, you really get a bang for your buck, & you'll leave satisfied. The service was great too, our server was very attentive & kind.
On a commandé un total de trois plats à deux. Nous n'avons pas eu accès au BBQ car on nous disait que les six tables libres & adaptées au BBQ étaient réservées... Les portions étaient tellement généreuses que l'on a rapporté au moins la moitié du repas à la maison. Tout était excellent avec cuisson à point. Le seul problème avec ce restaurant, c'est qu'il n'y a pas assez de serveurs, si bien que le service est très long. On a dû se lever pour aller chercher de l'eau nous-même. On a aussi dû courir après le serveur pour commander, puis à la fin, payer l'addition. Aussi, le chariot de nettoyage sur lequel on vide les restants de table au milieu des convives, ça n'a rien d'attirant. En partant, personne n'a souri ou nous a souhaité une bonne soirée, ou même remercié d'être venus. On y retournera pour l'excellente nourriture SEULEMENT! :)

Literally 15/15 stars. You have the option to cook yourself or have it prepared for you. Perfect buffet for friends family & dates! Fantastic substitution for Sota Bbq
We had a great time when we came for lunch at mon ami bbq! The food was excellent, we were surprised by the quick & quality service of our server Ryan & the friendliness. He answered all of our questions & was very accommodating. We would especially recommend the melona cocktails which were delicious & the kimchi fried rice!
We ordered a Korean bbq chicken for takeout, it was dry, hard & with a burnt taste. Although, the owner reached out following my review & offered to rectify the situation, which they did!
Decent atmosphere, nice Korean bbq experience! On a busy day, expect not so prompt service because there isn't enough staff. But the service is good! Be mindful of the portions you order. Be ready to order seconds.
Not sure why the rate is so high on google. If you want fresh, authentic BBQ buffet, please don't believe in rating to save your money. Most of food served not matching what's shown in menu, either cold ( dumplings) under cooked (glass noodles) or lack of essential ingredients (bibimbap) The meat it's not fresh so we had diarrhea after meal. There's definitely better choice in Montreal.
