Reviewers describe Mon Ami Korean BBQ as a cozy, welcoming spot with generous portions and consistently fresh, flavorful Korean comfort food. The fried chicken is repeatedly praised for being crispy and juicy, often with a dipping sauce and sometimes topped with cheese in certain orders; combos include drumsticks with rice or fries and pickled radish, while side dishes like corn cheese, seafood pancake, and rice cake skewers are also highlighted. The bibimbap is noted for arriving sizzling in a stone bowl with the right mix of textures. The service is friendly, fast, and attentive, and the atmosphere is described as inviting and value driven. Overall the place is called a hidden gem with fair prices for the portions, and most reviews encourage trying Mon Ami Korean BBQ and returning to sample more items, even as a few mentions of price or quantity arise.
Unlike most Korean restaurants, it was possible to order a serving for 1 person. We opted each for a combo (2 drumsticks, rice or fries, pickled radish & soda). However, the sauce came as an extra ($3). I the chicken was crispy as expected.
Restaurant was so good! Service was great. The staff was friendly & helpful. Highly recommend the fried chicken with snowing cheese topping . Side salad was also fire & refreshing

La meilleure cuisine coréenne que j'ai mangé. Je suis temporairement tombé amoureux d'la serveuse tellement je l'a trouvais sweet. Je recommande fortement.
Mon Ami on Avenue Somerled is a true gem in Montreal's NDG neighborhood. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, & satisfying. Their Korean fried chicken is perfectly crispy & juicy every time, & the bibimbap is a must-try-served sizzling hot in a stone bowl with just the right mix of textures & flavors.
The staff are always welcoming & attentive, & the atmosphere is cozy. It's clear they care about both their food & their customers. Prices are fair for the generous portions, making it a great value overall.
This is a restaurant you must visit at least once in your life. You will regret not coming. These days, new things are being added to restaurants, so it is not bad to experience new food.
The service was pleasant & fast, making the meal enjoyable from start to finish. The food was delightful, with each dish being flavorful & well-prepared. I would definitely come back again.

I popped into Mon Ami Somerled today, & wow, what a treat! We had the fried chicken & bibimbap, & I'm already excited to go back.
The fried chicken was absolutely delicious-super crispy, juicy, & bursting with flavor. It came with a little dipping sauce that added such a fun zing (Mana), & I couldn't stop munching on it! The bibimbap was a cozy delight, served in a hot stone bowl that made the rice nice & crispy at the bottom. It was loaded with fresh veggies & a perfectly gooey fried egg. It was yummy & satisfying.
The place has such a welcoming vibe, with K-pop tunes playing softly & a laid-back feel that makes you want to linger.
I'm already dreaming about my next visit (that chicken is calling my name!), & I'd totally recommend this spot to anyone who loves Korean comfort food. Can't wait to try more from the menu!
