Mon Ami Korean BBQ is frequently praised for tasty food, a wide variety and good value, with options to cook at the table or have dishes prepared, and many diners highlight crispy fried chicken, well seasoned beef and bibimbap as standout items, along with popular kimchi fried rice and versatile all you can eat choices. The atmosphere is described as cozy and unique, making it a good spot for groups or casual outings. However, service quality varies with staffing levels, leading to longer waits, slow reorders, and occasional miscommunications or missing items during busy periods. Some guests report moments of rude service or late arrivals, while others applaud attentive servers and thoughtful follow ups from management after problems. Overall the food and concept attract repeat visits, but consistency in service and logistics could improve the experience during peak times.
We visited here often for korean barbeque & the food is really nice, but the asian woman who serves us were rude & gave us an attitude. She was banging the plate on our table for unknown reason. But most workers there are really nice, except her.
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.
It was very good & the Korean bbq was amazing! We were there for the meat for sure! The reason I am giving 4 stars is due to the slow service. You have to wait for your food & for them to come to you when you press the call button. The $40 is ok for all you can eat.
Today we had a great first experience with all you can eat korean BBQ. After an amazing visit to oratory Saint Joseph, it was really great to have (lunch/dinner) at Mon Ami BBQ, they have a delicious food. The flavor was really spectacular. You should give it a try. & the service is really good too. The place has a really nice atmosphere & decoration, which made the experience more special.
Wir waren heute das erste Mal koreanisch Essen und wir waren total begeistert. Der Service war spitze und das Essen sehr sehr lecker. Schade das wir morgen weiter nach Toronto fahren. Wir können dieses Restaurant sehr empfehlen!!! Das BBQ ist super und ein tolles Preis Leistungsverhältnis!
Overall authentic Korean barbecue place! Having experienced a similar restaurant in Montreal, I would suggest filling in dishes more with food, then I would be an amazing experience. Cheers!
Quick details ✅All you can eat / buffet ✅18h00 on a Tuesday ✅2 pax This is the second time my husband & I visited & had an AYCE at this restaurant but this is my first review. Only few tables were occupied so we did not have to wait to be seated but the restaurant itself is very spacious & clean. We did not visit the washroom so no review there. Food is good. Quite a number of choices but some were less appetizing than the others. Cheese ramen - it was cold & the sliced cheese did not melt. It is similar to that of an instant noodles. Soybean paste soup - not the same as the photo on the website of the AYCE menu. My husband said it was okay but he did not finish it. Seafood ramen - my husband said this is better than the other soups he tried that he had a second serving. The veggie dumplings, seafood pancake, korean glass noodle, Gimmari, kimchi & lettuce were good. Meats The first serving of the bulgogi (both the pork & beef) was really good but the subsequent servings of the beef bulgogi were very sweet. It tasted as if it was different from the first serving. Spicy pork was tasty & the spiciness is just right. Pork belly - thinly sliced, it is without any marinade but the sauces on the table were a good match. Korean fried chicken - this is one of the best food we ordered! Freshly cooked, it is crispy & moist & flavorful! I would've eaten more if not for the meat I wanted to eat! Service: We finally met Bruno, he is very attentive & provided a very good service! I've read positive reviews about his service & I must say it is true. Quick service & no missing items from our order. Value for the price: We paid around $105 (total) for 2 pax plus 1 diet coke. I think for the food & service, it was worth it! It was a great wedding anniversary night for us! Time limit: 2 hours - but even when we were few minutes shy away from the 2 hour mark, they did not rush us or anything. It was enough to get our tummy filled while having a pleasant conversation. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience. We will definitely visit this branch again & recommend it to our friends! *Street parking available *I cannot recall if it is wheelchair accessible
I'm a big fan of Korean cuisine & I can honestly say that the Bibimbap at this restaurant is simply the best. Congratulations to the chef. I can't forget such a great service, without a doubt, especially from my favorite waiter Bruno, he's the greatest host. congratulations to the whole team. I can't wait to go back.
