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.
Food was average. Service was lack luster. Server had to verify 2 times what we ordered (claimed he was new). Atmosphere was alright. probably the better part of the resto. Food was WAY overpriced. 80$ for a 2 person platter with very limited meat (6 slices a person). Even drinks there are overpriced. Final price with one platter, 3 drinks & one Kimchi bowl came to 145$. All in all, visit another Korean BBQ place.
Good food, all basics are there. Great vibrant ambience just like the South Korea's nightlife. Fun time! Service is friendly & fast. Price is reasonable. Watch out..The oily floor gets pretty slippy with all the BBQs cooking around.

Souper hier chez Pony BBQ avec des collègues qui s'est très bien déroulé. Le service a été attentionné & nous a donné pleins de conseils sur comment procéder. La qualité de la nourriture fut excellente. La viande était savoureuse & bien assaisonnée. Nous avons aussi testé les cocktails & le Soju, belle découverte.
WOW! I thought I knew what Korean BBQ was but I was properly educated yesterday at Pony on Ste-Catherine in Montreal. I assumed it would be like the other "Korean" all-you-can-eat places in that area, so when I saw the prices & realized we ordered everything a la carte, I was very concerned. We opted for the mix plate for 2 ($85) which I feared would not be substantial enough... boy, was I wrong! It comes with soup for 2 (their kimchee soup was a revelation!), a beautiful, fluffy, cheesy omelet, premium cuts of meats, & a few veg + an exquisite gamut of banchan that they replenish as needed. All of it was delicious! There was so much food that, despite our best efforts, we couldn't finish it all. Thanks to the charm of the place (loved the Korean playlist going in the background & the pop art on the walls), & impeccable service (thanks Van & Kevin!), this is one of the best new places on the Ste-Catherine strip!
Première fois pour nous dans un restaurant BBQ Coréen. Belle expérience. Nous avons bien été guider pour faire notre choix de menu. Merci à Anais pour ses bons cocktails. Musique bonne mais un peu trop forte.

Stepping into this Korean BBQ spot transports you straight to Korea, thanks to its authentic decor & vibrant atmosphere. The service is friendly, making the whole dining experience even more enjoyable. For BBQ lovers, the meat is perfectly seasoned & grilled to perfection, offering a truly authentic taste. Separately, the Budagae is a standout dish, incredibly tasty & each bite leaves you craving more. Highly recommend for anyone looking to immerse themselves in Korean culture & cuisine without leaving town.
The best Korean BBQ so far in Mtl. The side dishes are all amazing. Nice vibe & cool decor. We ordered 3 types of beef, rosé tteokboki, fried chicken (wow), bibimpab, rabokki, cheese gyeran, ... & the delicious dessert hotteok with ice cream (miamm). I highly recommend this place to any Korean food fan!
Lovely korean BBQ with amazing decor & atmosphere. Not too loud during week. Unlimited & good side dishes. No individual fans or ventilation system your clothes will definitely smell a little smokeyy. Not All you can eat but combos are a good deal & decent amount of meat. Meat quality is definitely better than what you get at all you can eat places. Worth your money.
Excellent good, great service. Repas fantastique & très bon service. Le meilleur BBQ coréen que j'ai pu expérimenter à Montréal. Bravo à l'équipe. Le party pour 4 peut facilement satisfaire 6 personnes.
Outstanding authentic Korean BBQ! This street style restaurant is an immersion in Korea, the design is completely unique. Food is delicious, every table is equipped with its own grill & hot pot. Great variety of signature cocktails, wines, beers & sake. This new spot is a must!!
