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.
The best & most authentic Korean BBQ spot in Montreal!
From the fresh & delicious food, refreshing cocktails to the beautiful interior decor of the restaurant, you will definitely feel you're transported to Seoul!
Ordered the following:
Mix Combo with additonal Chadolbaggi - meat was very fresh & high quality
Pajeon - perfectly cooked with a lot of ingredients.
Rose Tteokbokki - creamy & rich!
Haemul Sundubu Jjigae - sumptuous & flavorful seafood broth
Kimchi Fried Rice - Delicious mix of flavor & texture!
We also had the Busan Midori cocktail which was so refreshing! Perfect to cool down after each bite!
& we ended the meal with dessert - Hotteok Ice Cream. Perfect contrast of warm & chewy Korean pancake with Ice cream, cranberry sauce & mixed nuts!
My suggestion is order as much as you like on the menu - the servings are huge, which means you get to bring home extra delicious food for the next day!
Authentic Korean dishes with the best ambience - it feels like I'm dining in Seoul! Their meat selection for the bbq is not overwhelming & you will NOT smell when you leave the restaurant. The serving is portion is just right.
Must try - Seafood jjigae & Rosé Tteokbokki! They also serve great cocktails & mocktails.

The most authentic Korean I've had since living in South Korea, but with some homemade twists. Great cocktails & incredible value for money. The staff is friendly & competent, this is my 3rd visit & it won't be my last!
Love this place. In my opinion, it is the best Korean BBQ in Montreal. Their banchans are great & you can ask for refills. Drinks are very good too. Highly recommend.
Pony Korean BBQ is officially my new little obsession 🥹💕
I had the rose tteokbokki - creamy, slightly spicy, & sooo comforting 🤍 - & the cheese corn, which was perfectly melty & indulgent. Honestly, the perfect combo.
The cocktails were also delicious 🍸✨
Great atmosphere, amazing food, & such a cozy vibe. I'll definitely be coming back 🫶🔥

I came here with company who wanted to try this restaurant & wasn't disappointed with the quality of service & food! The servers were kind, attentive & were quick to assist with cooking our ordered meats. They also refilled our side dishes quickly when we ran low on them. it's a great Korean BBQ place! I was able to recognize almost every K-Pop song they played in the restaurant as well, so that was fun 😆
Nice Korean BBQ place with a really cool atmosphere. When you walk in, it actually feels like being in Korea: they have screens that look like the subway or Incheon Airport, which is a fun detail. The restaurant is big & spacious, which is great whether you come alone, with two people, or with a group. We were five & it was very comfortable.
The menu has a lot of choice. We took a combo for five people & there was more than enough food. You get a lot of meat plus three side dishes. We chose the corn (really good) & the budae-jjigae (army stew).
About the budae-jjigae: it was okay, but if you've had it in Korea, you'll probably be disappointed. The ramen noodles felt a bit low quality & there was no cheese, so it didn't really taste like the real thing.
The meat itself was very good, & grilling it was fun. The side dishes are refillable, which is a big plus, especially the glass noodles & cucumber. The kimchi was a bit tasteless for me (not very spicy or fermented), better when grilled than eaten as is.
Service was a bit mixed. When the grill got dirty, no one changed it unless we asked. Also later, when it got busier, it felt like only one of the two servers was really working, so things were slower.
One downside is the ventilation because there are extractors over the tables, but they were surprisingly off. Better to put your jacket away.
Overall, good food, nice vibe, generous portions. With better service & ventilation, it would be even better.
Plentiful spread of BBQ meats & comes with tons of small side dishes as it should be in a Korean restaurant. The rest is up to you & your'skills' with the BBQ.
Perfect place for a special dinner! The atmosphere was cozy, the grill experience was fun, & the food was absolutely. Service was good. One of the best Korean BBQ experiences I've had!
Un repas aussi excellent que son rapport qualité-prix. En grande amatrice de Korean BBQ depuis ma plus tendre enfance, celui-ci était particulièrement savoureux & riche. Les conseils de la serveuse étaient parfait & nous on permis d'y passer un excellent moment.
Beautiful new Korean BBQ spot on St. Catherine near Guy....top quality meats, personal plate dishes, soups & some of the best cucumber salad & kimchi we've ever had.
The server Van & runner Cedric were the only 2 staff on the floor. The place was filling up fast but holy cow they are ROCKSTARS! Not only did Van not become frustrated even though I'm sure she was feeling overwhelmed, her friendly personality & smile stayed the same!
Highly recommend this place & we will definitely be going back!
Thank you for a wonderful experience!
I was impressed with the quality of the meat, & the sundubu jjigae was one of the best I've ever had. Fantastic Korean BBQ restaurant with wonderful service - I will definitely come back!
If you want to experience real Korean BBQ, I recommend this place. After taking a bite of the corn cheese, I felt like I was back in Korea. I was happy that all the food was exactly like what I would eat in Korea, & the vibe was also quite cute 😆 👍👍
