Overall, Pony BBQ Coréen is described as a lively Korean BBQ spot with generous portions and a wide range of banchan, noodles, kimchi, salads, and other sides that pair with meat platters, along with a convenient QR menu that some diners appreciate. The beef and pork are praised for flavor, and the unlimited sides plus the fun, vibrant atmosphere and decor contribute to a memorable experience, especially for groups and celebrations. Service is often fast and friendly, though a few reviews note inconsistency when the restaurant gets busy and some guests experience slower refills. Ventilation is a frequent criticism, with noticeable smoke and lingering odors in the dining area. Despite these drawbacks, the overall sentiment is positive, highlighting quality meats, good value, and a lively vibe that makes diners want to return.
Se faire imposer un menu le 31 déc , nous avons trouver ça ordinaire! Aucun autre choix que sur leur sélection. Nous avons l'habitude moi & mon copain de manger du Bbq Coréen en région. & nous avons du changer de resto. Car, c'était 65$/ par personne : il y avais des huîtres que nous mangeons pas & mon conjoint est allergique au tofu/soya/arachides/légumineuses... Donc très limiter. Nous avons dû changer de restaurant. Première fois que ça nous arrive!
Tout était délicieux, les soupes, les accompagnements & la viande d'une qualité exceptionnelle. Nous avons pris le BBQ party pour 4 ce qui nous a permis de goûter à plein de chose. Une délicieuse expérience, nous reviendrons assurément.
Def a good spot for Korean bbq. The staff was very friendly & attentive. I was a little disappointed at the Diet Coke I ordered. It was in a cocktail class with plenary of ice, therefore; I only got 5-6 sips. Usually, I get a pint or the equivalent to a can when I order a soda, anywhere. Also, the floors are very slippery which means they are very dirty. That was really icky to know all that grease just sits in the floor & you have to ice skate to your table. The side dish & beef were delicious. I hope they clean their floors & be a little more generous with their soda for my next visit.
Excellent BBQ coreen Décor vraiment cool La nourriture était super bonne Les banchans sont variés & à volonté Seul hic La ventilation La boucane est vraiment épouvantable. Mais ça vaut le déplacement

This place was so great!! It was my first time at Korean bbq & not only was it delicious & the atmosphere is so nice, the place is so cute it looks like a little alleyway with cute storefront signs!! Also JP was our waiter & the service was amazing!
We celebrated a birthday at Pony BBQ Coréen, a restaurant I had been eager to visit for quite some time. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the unique decor, which added a charming vibe to our dining experience. The menu was extensive & priced similarly to other BBQ places in the area. Arriving shortly after opening, we enjoyed the benefit of having the place mostly to ourselves. The service was fantastic-attentive & friendly-though I can't speak to the experience during busier times. As expected with BBQ restaurants, be prepared to leave smelling like BBQ smoke, which is something we were well aware of beforehand. One minor issue was that several of the meat cuts were still slightly frozen, possibly due to our early arrival. Overall, we had a great experience at Pony BBQ Coréen & look forward to visiting again to try more dishes from their menu!
Nous étions un petit groupe pour souper au Pony bbq, la qualité de la nourriture est incroyable & le service par Caissy & Gabrielle était hors pair. Nous allons assurément y retourner !
An absolute banger. Being a fan of korean BBQ, it's really a perfectly managed restaurant : EXTREMELY generous for the price, the service was top notch & perfectly coordinated. The music fit the place like a glove & was not too loud! So do yourself a service, & go. No reasons NOT to go! Gongratz to this gem!

Pour notre première visite, superbe décor, super ambiance. Nous avons beaucoup aimé Pony Bbq . Le Combo boeuf était excellent, en accompagnement le maïs grillé & gratiné , savoureux & comme sucré en même temps. J'aurais aimé juste un peu plus de riz. La portion de riz pour 2 était plutôt petite. Le tout en savourant une bonne bière. La bière maison, la Pony est quand même douce & agréable.
We loved this place. We were visiting Montreal & this place showed up on quite a few best-of lists. We didn't have a reservation & it was a Sat nite, & they found us a table & just asked us to please limit our dinner to 2. It was just the 2 of us, so no problem. JP was our waiter & he was great. So helpful with drink & food recommendations. We are veteran Korean BBQ eaters & the meats were excellent. Tons of unlimited banchan as well. Got a side of perfectly crispy garlic chicken wings as well. Lots of fun alcohol & non alcoholic drinks as well as a large selection of BBQ meats & veggies & tons of other Korean dishes like jaepche, Bibimbap & kimchee stew. Don't miss this place!
Best Korean BBQ in mtl. The side dishes are perfectly marinated, & the food just delicious with big portions. Felt at home here, the staff were so friendly it made me feel like I got to know them. Overall, great service, amazing food, amazing people- truly a night made memorable thanks to this place.
We had a lovely authentic korean experience. J-P was a great host & guide around the menu, meat quality was top notch & I could'nt stop re-ordering the side plates. Any fan of korean food or good bbq meats should definitely try it out!

You there! Yes, you... what are you waiting for? Reserve a table & jump in with both feet. Order a bottle of Soju & take shots as the succulent cuts of meat cook & the very friendly owner & serving staff bring you all the accompaniments you could want. Mix-&-match your fixings to try new flavor combinations & have a good time. That's exactly what you're looking for... the feeling of a backyard bbq with a friendly vibe & good time, surrounded by great decore & freshly cooked meat slathered in delicious trimmings. & take friends or family... this isn't something to be missed without sharing plates & having fun.
We had a very nice dinner here & enjoyed all the dishes. The kitchen dishes are excellent; we had soondubu which is very flavorful. & the jokbal is probably the best in Montreal, super tender. The rose tobokki is well balanced. We also had a few meat dishes to grill, which were also very good. Special shout out to JP who is our excellent server & make sure we lack nothing ( I mean nothing!!!) Thank you 😉 If you like K BBQ you won't regret giving this place a try!
Standard Korean BBQ fare. Staff are kind & charming. Atmosphere is a bit bar-like, but not too cramped. Not particularly memorable, & there are other places like this within a few blocks. But it satisfies. Not sure why it's called Pony, was hoping there'd be horse meat on the menu, but no, there wasn't. BTW, Quebec is one of the only places in North America where you can readily but horse meat at grocery stores. Apparently Quebec has many horse abattoirs.
